We called since our power line had been separated from our house due to a huge tree branch falling onto it knocking us out of power. We fought with the power company tooth and nail until eventually we gave up and called SAFE. We had Keeton and Justin out to our house that afternoon and our power restored only about an hour and a half of work later. Their amazing service has earned SAFE a customer for life!

Five Stars for Oakwood Electric & Generator:…read more I had a serious electrical issue where the source of the problem was complex. I knew I needed the "A" team.. I am extremely grateful to Arvy at Oakwood Electric & Generator as he got right to carefully and methodically sourcing the problem and that wasn't easy because although my interior electric had an unknown cause of a dead short from over 15 outlets, Arvy found the source of the problem on the exterior switch on the porch that had burned. (Clearly very serious!) He also checked many other outlets and made sure I was going to be ok after the repair. Clearly Arvy and Oakwood Electric are the "A" team and I am very grateful to the smart efficient work but also for caring for my safety. I highly recommend Arvy and the team at Oakwood Electric & Generator in Westmont . Thank you!

How I wish I wasn't placed in a position to share my unfortunate poor experience with Oakwood…read moreElectric, but here I am. I had asked them to add a light fixture to my outside porch going from one light to two. One person cut the hole in the brick on one day and another person came out the next day to install the light since it was towards the end of the day. Everything was fine until I was informed at that time that the hole was cut too big and the gentleman that was here couldn't complete the job. On the following day, a third person visited to install the light and although it did work out in the end, it didn't seem like much thought was given to this part of the project before cutting the hole. Plus that part took 3 different people in 3 different days to complete. Now, let's talk about the under the counter lights. To make a long story short, I had to have someone out three times to finally get them to 'work', but for the last 6 months there's an area that's been temperamental. I really got tired of calling and trying to coordinate my work day with them so I decided to just lived with it. I was told that the guys there have so much experience, which I'm sure they do, but if that's the case then it's probably a good idea to walk the walk. Now here we are today with one strip that is now not working at all, which is the same strip that's flickered for the last 6 months. The other two strips in the picture do still flicker. I expected and paid for a quality job and a set of lights that worked, but that's definitely not what I received. Now I'm likely going to have to have someone else come out, someone who can actually make them work, unless after reading this review Oakwood Electric will have enough pride and integrity to take the time to really make these lights work. Can't hurt to be hopeful....

No one answered their office phone or responded to a direct message. After a couple of days waiting for a human to reply in chat, I simply got another automated response telling me to call their office if I'm still interested in this project. Well, I was interested, but I didn't get the impression that they were. I went with another company that is definitely staffed by human beings and not chatbots. This company seems to have good reviews so maybe my experience is an anomaly. First impressions are important though. If I don't feel like a valued potential client, why would I believe that this would improve as an actual customer? -Edit: I received an automated reply to this review, telling me to call their office for a complementary quote.
