Customers highlight responsive scheduling, careful diagnostics, neat installation, and helpful explanations. Consistently high ratings reflect reliability and quality results.

Darrell and Dylan were excellent. They responded quickly to an emergency electrical issue over the weekend and had us up and running within the day of identifying the issue. They were both kind, knowledgeable, and efficient. Would highly recommend!

Had SAS come out to put in a New breaker and run some cable to help alleviate some issues we were having at home.

They showed up early, worked diligently and left the place clean. They communicated well throughout and barely needed anything from me. Honestly they made it really easy.

They also did a great job explaining what they did, and why it was an improvement/how it fixed our problem.

On top of that, we got a discount from JJ, on top of work that I already felt was pretty fairly priced (they’re not the absolute cheapest, but trust me you don’t want to go that route anyways).

Have some other things I need done and will definitely be using them again!

Sims and Sons Electric & Plumbing were fantastic. I needed new outlets installed and they were able to come out on a Saturday, which I really appreciated. The work was done efficiently and professionally, everything was clearly explained, and the space was left clean when they were finished. I’ll absolutely use them again and would recommend them without hesitation.

I highly recommend this company for all things plumbing. I recently had an after-hours (2am) emergency when a pipe burst in my bathroom wall. One call to Sims & Sons and the owner himself Darrell Sims was at my door in 30 minutes. He quickly diagnosed where the issue was and with as little damage as possible completed the repair in short order. Definitely a five-star service company.

I had a winter emergency when one of my outlets blew, and took out my heating during -20c weather.

Sims & Sons came out same day- with 8 inches of snow, they arrived within an hour, and had me back online in 15 minutes for a very reasonable price.

Easy to communicate with over text, really nice work and they cleaned up afterwards. 10/10, they're my new go-to electricians. Thanks guys!
