I had a dead outlet that seemed to have a life of its own. This outlet would sometimes have power and then go out. I replaced the outlet, found a disconnected ground which I hooked up but to no avail. One of my friends recommended Dirk as they just had him over to look over a whole house generator they just installed themselves. We called Dirk, and set up an appointment. Dirk arrived the next day and within minutes he had traced the problem down to another outlet, and quickly corrected the problem. I asked him to look at another outlet that a tester showed to have an open ground. Dirk once again traced down the problem to another outlet and quickly fixed this problem. Dirk is professional, knowledgeable, and honest. I would highly recommend him for any repairs and installations projects you may have. read more

No need to look any further for a great electrician! I work in the real estate industry in Placer, Sacramento and El Dorado County and was referred to Dirk McDougle owner of All Power and Lighting. My family had a house they were selling that was 5 days away from the close of escrow and there were some last minute electrical issue that came up during the inspection. Dirk came out early on a Saturday morning and completed a short list many various electrical repairs. He was very professional, friendly, prompt, fast, thorough, licensed and bonded and his rate was extremely fair! I would highly recommend Dirk for any electrical needs you may have.

Dirk did a fantastic job and was able to get my generator switch in just days before the big outage . He's a very good guy and will do all my electrical stuff from now on! He took the time to get it done with the best of quality I have seen. He got some parts that he thought were cheaply made and wouldn't use them saying he doesn't want me to have any trouble at all with my generator. He covered the cost of the up grade out of his own pocket but I slit the difference at the end cause it was the right thing to do. I know he'll do a great job for you too. Thank you so much Dirk we didn't have to live like campers though all the crazy powerless times we actually had good times. read more
