"We had a tree fall on our power lines and rip the meter off our home. Ryan answered his phone before daylight and was at our house shortly after. This was a Sunday and he worked until dark to make sure we had power again. Excellent in every way."
"Ryan removed an old fuse box and installed a new breaker box. He showed up early, explained every step, worked hard and had the power back on by the afternoon. Top notch. He will be my go to for any electrical work in the future."
"Excellent job with our generator connection project. He responded promptly, explained 3 possible options clearly and gave us a very competitive quote. Clean installation with clear operating instructions, completed within a week."
