The 3 Warning Signs in Electrical Contracting
(And How We Combat them!)
Cheap Quotes and Low Bids
If you’re getting a quote that seems too good to be true...
...it probably is.
Chances are they missed something during the walkthrough, and that mistake becomes your problem later.
If you accept the job at that rate, they’ve got two options: cut corners or hire electricians off Craigslist just to cover the labor.
We don’t play that game.
When we show up, it’s Chris or Mike walking your site. Guys who have been in the industry since before most people had email.
They know what to look for, what to ask, and how to quote it right the first time.
No surprises. No shortcuts. No BS.
Lack of Communication… They’re Probably Not Gonna Show
If you’re working with a contractor who doesn’t keep you updated or check in with progress reports, you better watch out.
We hear it all the time.
“Our last electric contractor didn’t show up.”
“We had an emergency and nobody answered the phone.”
Not with us.
You’ll have our personal cell numbers.
You call, we answer.
If there’s an issue, we’re already on the way.
We don’t disappear. We don’t dodge calls. We work with you from start to finish.
Crews Who Just Don’t Seem to Care
If the guys who show up to your site don’t care enough about your work to walk away from it and have it look good, the quality probably isn’t there.
That’s not our work ethic.
You want a crew that shows up clean-cut, respects the site, and leaves you feeling good about who you hired.
Our entire reputation rides on our electricians.
And they aren’t just employees... they’re family.
They care about the job, the people, and the results.
Most of us have worked together for years. We all have families we support and neighborhoods we live in right here in the local community.
When we show up, we care. This is more than a job to us. It’s our name. It’s our work. And it’s personal.
Hire an electrical contractor near you that shows up, communicates, and gets it done right the first time.

Frequently asked questions
24/7 for emergency electrical repairs?
Yes. When you work with us, you’ll have our personal cell numbers.
If there’s an issue, you call. We answer.
We’ll have a crew on-site asap.
You’re never on your own. We’re right there with you until it’s fixed.
What if a project goes over budget?
If an electrical project goes over budget, it’s usually because something was added or changed mid-project.
And if that happens, we’ve already talked it through.
There are no hidden fees. No surprises.
You’ll always know what you’re paying for before anything moves forward.
What if a project runs late?
If a project runs behind, it’s usually because of something that wasn’t in the original scope.
We’re flexible. We compromise when timelines shift, and we adjust as needed.
Even when small changes pop up, we do everything possible to finish on schedule.
If we give you a timeline, we stick to it. If anything does shift, we talk through it up front and get everything back on track so your project gets done with the quality you need.
