I will from now on always use Helping Hands. With the horrible June 10th storm and every one is…read morebusy, Helping Hands found the technician who was nearby and could fit me in. This was the next afternoon, after MG&E said there was a broken weatherhead that need replacing first before they could reattach the wire. But the afternoon of the 11th brought nonstop thunderstorms and the technician waited in his truck for a break in the rain to get out and fix it, but it didn't come. He went home and I went to my family's house since I had no power for dinner. When I came home, I got a text saying Ader had returned and completed the repair. My neighbor was so impressed by Ader's tenacity waiting for the a break in the rain, that he will also start using Helping Hands! Thank you so much!

We hired Scott Kiel Electric for a kitchen remodel and a panel upgrade. After taking a bunch of…read morequotes, they seemed liked they cared the most about doing a great job and they were actually the most affordable. This, combined with the quality of work that we ended up with have resulted in our highest recommendation. Nathanial found and corrected so many issues that the previous installer (who was either not an electrician or a terrible one) had made. He made sure our house was safe and took the time to show and explain to us clearly any issues that arose. Nathanial is the best and you can tell how much he cares about his work. I think our house had one of the worst electrical situations possible, and I think it would be rare to find other electricians in the state who could have handled the job as expertly as Nathanial and Scott did. Every inspector that came to our house also commented on how nice a job they did!

When we moved a year later, there was no question--we called Scott and his team to install a new charger at our new home. Once again, the service and quality of work were outstanding. We couldn't be happier with the experience. It's hard to imagine finding a better electrician than the team at Scott Kiel Electric.

When we bought our house twenty years ago, one name kept coming up whenever I asked people about an…read moreelectrician. Krantz. Unfortunately, my old house has knob and tube and for any new fixtures etc we've had to call people out since it's against code (and just plain unsafe) to mess with knob and tube. Knob and tube doesn't work like newer wiring and there's no rhyme or reason why it goes where it does. THAT would be why the guy was banging on Sally's walls. He was trying to figure out the run pattern and where the wiring actually was. They are the only electrician I have used and they have also been great with my clients I recommended them too (I'm a realtor and know many tradespeople). As with anything on here, ymmv, but I don't think it's fair to hit a small family-owned business (at least two generations, maybe three) for something just because you don't understand the specifics of what they are doing. They treat their people well, do great work, and I'm having them back to my house in a few days to give me a quote for removing all of the knob and tube. Isn't that what's supposed to matter? How they actually are doing their job? It's also a Union shop which is important to me, although I've found their prices to be closer to the non-union shops in town. I endorse them heartily, and without reservation.

Cardinal has been the BEST company I've experienced so far at my house. I've also used Action--they…read morewere terrible in comparison. 1st call to Cardinal was in a panic with the sudden loss of AC in a 90 degree day. 5 animals in the home. The person with whom I spoke understood how dangerous of a situation this was and a service person was scheduled that day. 2nd call was for electrical work--not urgent but they happened to be able to squeeze me in on the same day which was probably rare but amazing! Best parts of this experience: 1. Friendly and empathic front team who got me scheduled ASAP. 2. Text prior to the service person's arrival with their pic and some info to help personalize this 'stranger' 3. The service people themselves--extremely competent, focused, and very personable. I only wish they serviced commercial properties so I could have them out to my business!

I talked with the technician and explained that I needed a service call because I couldn't figure it out. He gives me a friendly suggestion to look for a "hidden" second GFCI, and voila there it is. I reset the 2nd one, and all is well. Point of the story is that they could have just scheduled a service call, but they were friendly enough to help me figure out the problem without me needing to wait (and pay the-stupid-tax for an obvious problem that wasn't really a problem - I won't deny it). Sure, they have better things to do than make an "idiot" call that can be fixed in 30 seconds. Nonetheless, I consider the fact that they gave me their advice "great". And so my 5 star in the review.

He arrives right on time, is courteous, friendly, and gets right to the job. He picks up everything, leaving you with nothing to do after. (I mean: Who does this today!??) After he put the bath fan/light in, and we were walking out to his truck, he asked if there was anything else. I had remembered that my ceiling garage light switch had clearly gone bad some time ago. He asked if I wanted him to put in a new one. I was thrilled! He did that job very quickly, and he was done. The owner Dave Parks, called me today to see how the job went again, (and who does that today!??), and I told him: GREAT! PERFECT!
