In several phone conversations, Mr. Harkness was very patient and generous with his advice regarding our particular problem, which involved mysterious voltage spikes. However, he did not follow up with a proposed appointment time. I would not be surprised if he is very busy, as he seems so patient, knowledgeable, and obliging.
Description of Work: When we contacted Mr. Harkness to request his assistance with mysterious voltage spikes at our residence, he consulted by phone. We sought an appointment for him to inspect and repair as necessary, but he did not follow up.

We needed to find an electrician and thought we would look on Angie's List. There we found Charles Harkness; a kind, personable, family man who does excellent work for a fair price (no, we're not related). We felt perfectly comfortable providing access to our home when we weren't there. This was in May and I did not get around to commenting. We needed him again just this weekend (new job)....lightening again!) Charles went out of his way to find a switch from a friend and colleague (who was closed) so that he could see if he could get our water running. Success! Such kindness is rare today.
Description of Work: Replaced outside outlet (lightening strike), replaced remote dimmer switches on 2 ceiling fans (located in housing @ 25 ft up in beams) and wall switches, installed 3 ground rods and wires, ordered special dimmer switch for overheads.

Arrived on time, top notch work, professional, very reasonable prices.
Description of Work: Charles Harkness helped with a series of electrical problems I was having at my house. From rewiring areas that had not been properly wired when the house was built to getting my media room set up for a full entertainment system. Harkness Electric is expanding into the solar panel installation business under the name MyEnergyUSA. They already have some installation under their belt and will be terrific partners for anyone considering this smart investment for the future of our environment and the opportunity to save money in the long run. Top notch professional a pleasure to work with.

We live in low population rural area. We are thrilled to find an electrician who can provide quality service at reasonable price. My husband is an electrical engineer so he certainly recognizes quality workmanship.
Description of Work: We were referred to Charles Harkness. Could not be more pleased w/ quality of work & overall professionalism. Selected Good for price as sometimes we felt price was very slightly above point we felt comfortable. Charles was open to review of pricing. He has never billed above his estimate. We built new home 2009. Charles & ee's have completed wiring for entire basement level & upper level bedroom. He also handled installtion of generator.

Harkness Electric was perfect. He did everything I wanted him to do. He gave me an estimate as to how much it would cost. They knocked out the work quickly and neatly. They were very professional on a not exactly easy project. I would recommend Harkness Electric. They did a good job for me. The only issue is that there are not a lot of electricians in the area so, unless you have an emergency, you may have to wait a few weeks for them to be able to complete the work.
Description of Work: Harkness Electric installed a stand-by generator and installed some attic lights.
