Due to some time constraints during the holidays for fixing code issues with my business, I had to hire a different company to fix my exit lights. The other company spent an insane amount of time and never got them to work right. I’ve used Advance in the past for work I was very satisfied with, so I called them up and they got everything fixed up and working right within an hour. Turns out the other major local company had wired them up wrong! Got to go with the right company off the bat! I won’t make that mistake again! Thanks!

Advance Electrical and owner Chris Richards is an excellent contractor to work with. Chris is an excellent communicator and does what he says. Any changes are explained in advance. Would recommend this contractor based on his thorough understanding of what it means to service a client competently.

The team at Advance Electrical contractors has done a great job. From the bidding process with Chris which was easy, simple and professional. To the craftsmanship of Wes and Liam. Wes and Liam have done a great job. We hired them to assist on our second story renovation. This included a service swap from 100amp to 200amp and all new lighting and outlets in the second story. The guys have been on time,on schedule, and done exactly what we contracted for at the price we agreed upon. They have been flexible with any change orders we needed during the project. I would highly recommend the guys at Advance Electrical contractors for a simple service call to your most complex remodeling projects. They will be doing all my electrical work. Professional, knowledgeable and skilled electricians! Call these guys and get a quote. You will be happy you did!
