“John Cobb and East Road Electric of Greenville, electrical and solar”
John has been our electrician for the past 23 years . He did all our electrical work when we built our home. You cannot find anyone better. He is very responsive, he’s reliable and fair and does great work . We highly recommend him.
John was amazing from every step of the Kohler experience. Very communicative, responsive if there was an issue, and very efficient. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to update their home system with a generator!
John and his team did an outstanding job with the electrical installation for our new house. John's pricing was reasonable, and the work was completed within budget and on-time. John and his crew were always very professional and courteous, and they were very easy to work with. Their work was top notch quality. They respected our requests, one of which was our own design of a rustic, field-fabricated valence light system for our master bedroom, and it worked out better than anticipated (see enclosed photos). We also really appreciated that, instead of just installing everything exactly as we had requested, they took the time to evaluate all of our designs and to give us their suggestions for things that we could or should do differently than we had planned, and those suggestions worked out great for us. We are VERY satisfied customers, and without reservation we highly recommend John and his team to any homeowner who is looking for a professional, high quality electrical contractor.
