    Wafer LED lights after
    Gregory C.

    Let there be light... in the kitcheKept putting off this project for some time and wanted to call up the experts who do this type of work day in and day out. After reading some reviews and doing a little bit of searching I came across Lightening Bug Electric. They were local and had an easy way to get scheduled. Cody came out and took a look at our situation and recommend wafer LED lights to brighten up the kitchen and strategically place lights so that certain areas were well lit like the stove, dishwasher and coffee area. He set expectations and got us on the calendar. Hunter and Leyton showed up promptly this week, brought their own floor mats and shoe coverings and spent a couple hours doing the install. We have been so pleased with the work we wished we'd found Lightening Bug earlier. We had gotten estimates in the past and it was all over the board but want to say the folks at this company care about taking care of customers. Our kitchen looks amazing and we'd definitely hire them again for our next project. Cutting a hole in the ceiling and fishing lights thru joists in not a simple job although one can do it themselves, I'd recommend calling up the experts who are licensed, insured and experts in handling electrical work. Shout out to the great team at Lightening Bug Electric, they took on a big job for us and did it professionally. Super happy with the workmanship and overall project cost for service.

    New pool light changes colors
    Michael-Renee G.

    Lightning Bug Electric responded super quick and got us set up for service right away. Steve and his apprentice were beyond great! If I could give them 10 stars I would!! They immediately identified the problem with my pool light and timer, rerouted some electricity, suggested I get a color-changing bulb to replace the dead bulb, continued working while I ran around the corner to pick up the bulb, replaced the pool light, and installed a new timer in 90+ degree weather! I kept the water and Gatorade coming because they were working hard & sweating bullets! Steve is hilarious and personable - fellow veteran - and even invited me to his American Legion Post for the karaoke night he hosts! His apprentice (sorry I can't remember his name) was very polite and he will be well-trained working under Steve. The work was excellent! The cost was reasonable! I would definitely hire them again!

    Lightning bug did a great job fixing outlets and wiring in our house. They have expert knowledge and experience and mindful of safety.

I am no plumber, but these folks are, and they were gracious with their time, and explained it all, and provide options, pros vs cons, best practices, and did not once pressure me to make a decision. Mark, Eddy, and Mike did a superb job. They had no bias, and gave me all the facts and options to make my own decision. At the end of the day, I feel like I can trust them. Real pros. Arrived when they said they would, did what they promise and even more. Fantastic experience. If you want a plumber you can trust.. look no further.

    I requested TE to come out and diagnose why an existing circuit was not getting power. Instead of…read morejust fixing the circuit, I agreed to a new panel for my house since it was 60 years old. The price I was quoted was over 12k. I felt the electrician on my job, Jason S. was very high pressure in his tactics and told me I needed to decide that day, or lose potential discounts. I had also been without a kitchen for over 30 days, so I agreed to the work. The next day Jason and an apprentice come out to start the job. They take one whole day to remove and replace the new panel, no problem. Here is where it goes downhill. On the second day of work, Jason and another apprentice came out and instead of prioritizing the circuit I hired him for, they start installing the hardwired smoke detectors Dekalb county allegedly requires. This took all day! By about 4 pm, I asked if he was going to get the outlet done so I could use my dishwasher and he replied "I guess if I stay here all night". I said I guess thats what you got to do then, and they were here til nearly 8 pm. Then he made several other unprofessional comments about staying late. Jason never came back to my job. A new Electrician came out on Monday, Jason said he had an emergency job. The part where they earned this rating comes when I found out my pool motor circuit was not working on the new GFCI circuit. I explained to them it originally was on a two pole circuit and now they had it on two single poles. It was drawing 240v and they had the model number and should have researched the wiring on their own as professionals. Rather than listen to me, I had to wait all day for the new electrician (with Jason on the phone) come up with a new quote to fix which included trenching up and re-wiring my entire pool, ANOTHER 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS! I was livid. I started looking into this and it turns out I was right, it just needed a 2 pole GFCI. I talked to the second electrician the next day and told him I want to talk to a supervisor or manager. I got a call later in the day from Jeffrey who was going to look into it and get back to me the same day. He did not. He did call me the next morning and agreed to send one of his best guys out to install a 2 pole and see if that solves the problem. Well guess what, it did! And, I didn't have to pay another 5K. I expected to hear back from Jeffrey again to ensure the job was to my satisfaction as you should on a service recovery. I did not. I feel lied to, and that I was robbed and almost taken needlessly for thousands more, had I not done my research which should not be necessary as a layperson. I understand from TE employees the Electricians control the cost, and they get a commission from it. Unfortunately, I paid for an electricians summer vacation because I trusted him. Luis L and Nathan the electricians at TE, thank you! Micah, Gavin, Phillip the apprentices, thank you too! Jeffrey I thank you for doing the minimum by ensuring what I paid for was completed. Jason, no thank you at all. You've sowed distrust in professionals and your industry with your practices.
