The technician did an excellent job installing our Tesla Wall Charger. He walked us through every step of the process, explaining exactly what he was doing and why, which made the whole experience feel transparent and professional. He patiently answered all of our questions, no matter how small, and made sure we understood how to use the charger before he left.
His clear communication and expertise gave us complete confidence in the installation. We’re really happy we chose this company and would recommend them to anyone looking to install a home charger.

Was looking to have two canless downlights installed in my hallways, Ian came out and did a quick easy estimate at a fair price. They were able to come back and complete the job within a week. Everything was done great, very happy with how it all worked out

Ian came and installed my EV charging plug in my garage. He did it quickly and cleaned up after himself. It works perfectly and the price was fair. Highly recommend!

Super fast response in communication, arrival and completion of work. He provided a couple bids of other jobs/projects we’ve been putting off. Some of those projects I was unsure if they’re DYI for me or not? He explained the steps to me how I can do someone of the work and where to find the parts… Which boosted my confidence I needed when working with electrical wiring and fixtures. Ultimately saving me $$ on our next job together!
