He picked up the phone and reassured me that he can come out quickly and address the issue. In fact, he was able to diagnose the root cause over the phone and came prepared to resolve the issues. While fixing the issue, Ryan took the time to help me understand my electrical panel and explained the process of how he was going to fix the issue. After the work was completed, he ensured that there were no ongoing issues and that the work was completed to my satisfaction. At no point did Ryan come off as impatient or made me feel like he was rushing. He completed the fix quickly, but was very thorough in his work (something that comes with experience, practice, and being confident in the work). He was extremely kind and patient as he answered all of my questions. The rate Ryan charged was fair (i.e., no price gouging); especially given the short notice. I am definitely going to be calling on Ryan (no hesitation) for any future work that may require an electrician.

Ryan came out promptly the next day when I requested and his work was professional and clean. He explained everything he was doing along the way and left everything just as good as it was when he arrived. His rate was very reasonable and the final job cost was very close to his rough estimate. I'd recommend Ryan for electrical work and would use his services again.

Don't know if I would recommend them, because I never got a response from an actual human being…read moreafter trying to contact them by both chat and by phone. 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.

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 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!

I did something really stupid with my hard-wired smoke detector and lost power to part of my apartment. However, it turned out that really wasn't the source of the problem: when I was monkeying with the fuses in my old-fashioned fuse box after the incident, I removed one where the socket was defective. I couldn't put the fuse back in properly and thus the power loss. Carlos discovered the problem in my fuse box, crafted a solution to it, and reconnected my smoke detector. He was friendly, polite, and quick, but he took the time to explain to me what the problem was and made sure I understood how to replace the battery in my smoke detector and reattach it to the ceiling. To top it off the price was very reasonable. I will be calling Caval the next time I need an electrician.
