Working with A-1 Electric was wonderful. They were very prompt, showed up on time, did an amazing job with installing my light fixtures, and even cleaned up after themselves. Thank you so very much! I will definitely be using your service again!!

Carlos was fantastic! Educated me when I asked questions, was respectful of my home and me, showed up on time, was friendly and got all my various jobs done in a timely manner. (Removed old oven, hard wired new oven, replaced some outlets and light switches.) Would highly recommend!
