Scott is very conscientious and respectful of homeowners property. He was on time, covered his shoes when entering my home, covered furniture that might get something on them and cleaned up when finished. He knew what to do and how to do it. This guy is excellent.

Scott was on time (actually a little early, after he called first) for appointment to install a pendant light in our kitchen and repair a ceiling fan. Both were done successfully. Very courteous and respectful of our home.

The actual cost of the job $563.50 was over twice the price of the original quote of $250.00. This is not a good business practice for a young man just getting started in business.

There is a reason Scott receives such good reviews on HA. He is professional, punctual, expeditious, meticulous, very patient and most importantly to me he seems to enjoy his work and completed our install (almost 12 hours) smiling almost the whole time he was here. He was a pleasure to work with even before he arrived at our house to put up a new electrical panel. He took the time to listen to what it was I wanted out of a new panel and was not just in a rush to replace the old one. He answered all the questions I had, even during the install; this helped me feel very at ease. When writing reviews we reserve 5 star ratings for those who go above and beyond what is standard. Standard for our install would have been to drill into the concrete below the breaker box and run the ground wire to the ground rod. This would have been and eyesore and a bit of a tripping hazard. We asked Scott if there was another option. He took both additional time and material to run the ground rod and wire from a mush less conspicuous location. He also noticed some anomalies with our wiring system from when the house was built back in the 70's and took time to investigate and fix one discrepancy in wire size/breaker capacity. Moral of this story is Scott does the job "right," the way I would do it if I had the time and knowledge. This is why he is a 5 star electrician and why he comes highly recommended from us. He will be who we call for future electrical work!

Scott arrived on time, very polite. He reviewed with me the projects to be performed. We had him install two ceiling fans, and two light fixtures. He did an great job, cleaned up after the project, and we hired him for another project to install lighting in our bathroom. Highly recommend him and did a outstanding job.

Scott was an absolute pleasure to work with. We originally hired him to install ceiling fans and add lighting to a couple of bedrooms, and as he continued to impress I requested more lighting/electrical projects be done (kitchen/family room lighting, tv mount, outdoor lighting, face plate upgrades on outlets, etc). Timely, detail-oriented, knowledgeable, realistic are just a few words to describe Scott. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking for electrical work big or small! I cant wait to have him back to do more work!

Scott is an exceptionally friendly, polite, and punctual electrical contractor who describes in detail what he is going to do, involves the customer throughout, and takes pains to do the extra things that demonstrate his professionalism and commitment to excellence -- for e.g., covering his work shoes with disposable booties so he won't track in dirt and meticulously cleaning up after himself. He only selects products that he believes will last and perform well, and guarantees his workmanship "for life." He works hard and efficiently, so the customer is getting great value for his time. His fees are competitive. He has a good sense of design and balance, recommending, for example, where can lights would look and function well in my cathedral-ceilinged living room. I will hire him for additional jobs at my home this summer. I recommend him highly.

Scott was very timely in his response to my initial inquiry. He was right on time for the appointment and very friendly and professional. Not only did he install my beautiful new ceiling fan, he also was very receptive to me asking him to take a look at another ceiling fan that I thought may have had a short in it, as I had changed bulbs to no avail. I think Scott may have tweaked a wire or two and put in a new bulb and it's now working. I highly recommend Scott for his services and will definitely use him again myself.

Scott was professional, on-time and knowledgeable. And of course- very reasonable with his pricing/rates. He showed up on time, explained what he was going to do, quoted the job, and did excellent work on the install of my ceiling fans and can lights with switches.

Scott has worked for us 3 or 4 times. He's ran power out to new building with all the switches and fixtures. He's upgraded wiring out to the garage for my big compressor. He installed a Chandelier where there was nothing before. He even moved the sensor for the garage door so it worked better when i pull into our long driveway. This guy does it all. He does it fast. He does it right. I've done my own electrical when younger but I'm not as young as i used to be BUT i know a good job when i see it. I know what to look for and he always passed the test. I have more work lined up and i wouldn't consider hiring anyone else. He's always on time. He answers my text, phone calls and emails right away. He contacts me to keep me informed. This is the guy. Sincerely, Tom Marsh

Scott is very professional, courteous, conscientious, and just about any other superlatives you could name! He is a licensed journeyman electrical contractor who "guarantees" his work. Scott is prompt, informative, and did the work for the bid price. Based on his job performance, we have several other projects for which we will not hesitate to hire Scott!
