The job was to replace a kitchen light fixture and the switches—nothing major, but the electrician who came out was actually both co-owner, which really stood out to me. They were incredibly thorough, took the time to explain everything clearly, and made sure to clean up every few minutes as he worked. On top of that, he was easy to talk to—engaging in conversation just like a friend would, which made the whole experience even better. Great service from start to finish.
