Bud installed my Tesla charger and he did a fantastic job. He is now my go-to guy for all electrical work. He’s very thoughtful and responsive.
Knowledgeable, professional and efficient. Thank you Bud.
Excellent service and very knowledgeable. Handle both my electrical issue. Would highly recommend him to anyone.
Bud came out to install our chandelier right after moving from out of state. During a very busy time for contractors, he cheerfully fit us into the schedule, was highly professional and knowledgeable, and a delight to work with. He’s just a fabulous electrician and we will hire him again if we need any more electrical work. Highly recommended.
