Bernard stopped by to have a look and after some work eliminating the possible problems, he determined what was causing the problem and fixed it. He did the work with a sense of humor and was pleasant to deal with.

Absolute Electric actually came out twice to do the job I needed and completely confirmed my suspicions about some poor DIY electric jobs the previous owners had completed. Bernard went above and beyond to make what was a wrong, right and completed everything that needed to be done. So glad I finally found our home electrician!

Bernard came out to review a $20,000 quote we got from another electrician. We were concerned & skeptical of the quote and wanted another electricians opinion. Bernard reviewed everything with me, thoroughly explained why the other company probably stated that certain things need to be done, and assured me that while we could get it done, it was not completely necessary. After spending 40 minutes with me he handed me his card, shook my hand, and was ready to go... Not even a service call charge! Considering he is an independent business man I understand that his time costs him, so his not charging really shows his integrity. We are getting ready to remodel some bathroom, and he will be our go-to guy for any and all electrical work. I'd recommend him to family, friends, neighbors - anyone.

This company is very easy to work with, they go the extra mile and their prices are very reasonable. They also do a good job of explaining what they are doing and why,.

I met with owner Bernard about one week before the job was completed. He is extremely pleasant, very, very, knowledgeable. I explained the work I wanted to be completed and he made suggestions based upon current electrical code. His price was extremely competative and the work that was done exceeded my expectations. The cleanup was done so well you would not have known that I had any work completed at all. I will definitely hire him again and highly recommend his company!
Description of Work: I needed additional outlets for the garage, on the lanai plus an external weather protected outlet on the back of the house. I also needed a security light moved from under the eave to a different location.

I called on June 9 and spoke to a man who I'm assuming was the owner. He was on a job site and took down my contact info and asked what work I needed. He asked if he could get back to me later and I agreed. It's now June 14 and I've never heard back from him.

This was an easy job for Bernard since he had already done several before today. He arrived on time and prepared with all the tools needed to install our new Tesla wall charger for an electric car. We told him where we wanted this connector and he was able to hook it up to a new 50 Amp breaker added to our electrical panel. Looks great!! Now we just need the car. Lol
Description of Work: Installed a new 50 Amp breaker and Tesla wall connector about 15 feet to the right of the breaker panel.

Bernard was one of the few electricians that worked on the weekend with the cost being 30% higher then on a weekday which was to be expected. I scheduled the call on Saturday night for Bernard to show up on Sunday at 3PM. He ran about 45 minutes late, but called me to let me know. As I caused the damage to the wires, I knew where the issue was. The job took 2 hours and was done very well. Highly recommend Bernard as he was professional and punctual.

Bernard came on a Saturday night in less than an hour. We explained the situation about our breaker tripping and he quickly troubleshot the issue and resolved our problem. He was very knowledgeable and professional and explained why our breaker kept tripping (a previous electrician's poor workmanship). For quickly coming on a Saturday night, diagnosing, and fixing the issue, the price was more than reasonable.

Per the usual, Bernard (and his helper) were awesome. They arrived on time and got right to work. They were able to get everything on my long list finished in one day and did not leave a mess anywhere. Both were very friendly, answered any questions and reviewed the work with me once they were complete. Absolute Electric is and will remain on my favorites list! I have also referred this company to lots of people, because, as we know, finding an honest, hard-working and quality contractor is getting harder to come by!
Description of Work: Converted 3 fans that ran a power cord along the ceiling to an outlet; to fans that are connected to a switch. This included switching the outlets to a continuous circuit versus ones that ran off a light switch. Added two additional outlets to a bedroom.

Bernard has worked at my old 1953 cement block home twice in the last 4 years. Replaced some light fixtures inside and out, Including motion sensors, added some exterior outlets, and upgraded some outlets to meet current codes for safety. He knows his stuff - there was some detective work involved here, and he was he only one of three electricians who came out that figured out what the "mystery" breaker went to. Its nice to have a service person I actually feel confident about recommending to family and friends.

Bernard called a half hour prior to his arrival to let us know he was coming. He showed up on time and did a great job installing the outlets and switches. He didn't even scratch any paint on the walls. The price was fair and exactly as quoted over the phone. It is so hard in Florida to find an honest professional electrician. This man and Absolute Electric is that professional. Thanks so much, great job!
