Better Electric did some work for us back in 2020 so this is the 2026 remix!…read more I highly recommend Tyler Bower and Better Electric! We recently hired Tyler to handle several projects around our home, and the results are fantastic. He installed a new light in our laundry room, added a recessed can light in the master bath, and upgraded a few outlets to modern USB-C plugs. Most importantly, he ran four new dedicated circuits for us, completely resolving a frustrating issue where our space heaters kept tripping the breakers. As with any home project, there were a few unexpected scheduling delays due to unforeseen conflicts and illness. What really set Tyler apart, however, was his proactive professionalism. He always gave me as much advance notice as possible and immediately came to the table with a clear remediation plan to get everything back on track. Even though the project wrapped up about 1.5 weeks behind the original schedule, the flawless quality of the work and the seamless patch-and-paint job made it entirely worth it. Tyler showed an incredible amount of care and concern for our home throughout the entire process. We will absolutely use Better Electric again for any future electrical needs!

Very unreliable, and honestly, a very unique type of scam. Had a 6 week project that ended up…read moredragging to three months, and never finished since I had to fire this vendor for delays. Took advantage of my retired mom and asked for full payment of the project before it was done. Before we got rid of this company, they had already forecasted multiple times that the end date was a certain day. Now it is over a month since that first promise, and I had to fire them. Will take on other jobs while your project ongoing. It's funny when your electrician shows up at your house at 8pm (not am) to work every day? Enjoy the hammering and drilling through the night. I do not recommend anyone to use them. This is a classic bait and switch approach: promising a smooth project and experience on scope of work, but really was messing around after. To be more specific, I had a project for under cab kitchen lights. Looks like they have not even done the strips we had bought before (Phillips Hue, by the way). So it looks like my project was R&D and it was the perfect one since my retired mom was nice enough to pay before completion.

It's always a very busy place with a lot of people stopping to see the lights and decorations. So exciting for the kids. We missed it last year due to Covid.

Hopefully we will be able to get down next year.

Parking is a bit difficult most evenings, so we had to park further down and walk over.

Anthony was very friendly and punctual. The team that he works with were also friendly and on-time. I was concerned about dust, but was so impressed with how clean they kept everything from start to finish. Anthony has an excellent eye for design, and was very helpful with suggestions for spacing and placement. He was also sure to take care of all the details, including removing existing speakers and lights that would no longer fit and properly patching up holes. They did exceptional work, and we are so happy with the finished product. We look forward to working with him again for our lighting.

Within an hour of my initial inquiry, I had something on the books literally same day. Tommy (who did the initial consult for me, and was very easy to talk to) stopped by and recommended a more thorough review. I was able to get that scheduled for the next day. They sent Elvin over to take a look at the mess I have going on with my very ancient electrical system. He was super helpful - he took his time walking through and evaluating everything, and explained things to me while doing so. When it came down to his professional opinion and recommendations, it was a super chill conversation -- he made my options clear and understandable without the feeling of an 'upsell' He also humored my dog, who kept following him everywhere They were also available to do the work almost immediately, but my scheduling couldn't accommodate. So TLDR: super fast response, ability to do work quickly, and really good people to work with.

I hired Five or Free Electrical Solutions through Yelp for service scheduled on 2/11/26. They were…read morevery responsive in setting up a free quote on 2/10/26 and quickly scheduled the service for the next day. To secure the appointment, I had to prepay for a package that included full diagnostics and replacement of up to two devices. I felt comfortable paying upfront because of their reviews and business model, and I was on a tight timeline. On 2/11, the technician arrived on time, diagnosed the issue, and restored power to two non-working outlets. However, the job was not completed as agreed because the outlets required GFCI replacements. The technician said he was not informed that outlets needed to be replaced and did not have the necessary materials. That lack of preparation immediately caused delays. I also felt there was more focus on upselling a larger future project rather than completing the paid scope of work for the day. After I contacted the company, a follow-up was scheduled for 2/13/26. I was initially given a two-hour window, but the appointment was changed last-minute to later time that evening. The second technician was efficient and completed the outlet replacements in about 30-40 minutes. Still, the overall experience resulted in a multi-day setback that impacted my next urgent project and now not allowing me to move forward due to the long weekend (president's day). To their credit, management followed up and set up a call 2/17/26 with the manager of operations; they ultimately honored their "Five or Free" guarantee. However, I was initially told that all five promises had to be broken to qualify for a full refund, which contradicts their stated policy. Their guarantee clearly states that if even one promise is missed, the service is free; so I had to reference their own website during that discussion. At the end I appreciate that the full refund was ultimately offered / issued. However, due to the lack of preparedness, delays, and overall experience, I would not hire them again.

Joseph, the technician, was excellent. He was very clean and professional throughout the entire job. He made sure all areas were properly covered and protected before starting, which I really appreciated.

The installations came out clean and exactly as expected. During the job Joseph also made suggestions on items that he saw. Overall, great experience--professional, detail-oriented, great pricing and easy to work with. I'd definitely recommend them and would use them again for future projects.
