My experience with Hardt Electric was great. Within 5 minutes of requesting a quote I got a phone call with an accurate price, timeline, and how the job would be done. This gave me a lot of confidence going into the wiring project. When the electrician arrived he was very professional, went over the options, and got straight to work. It was done in the estimated time and the cost was in line with the quote. Very pleased, I would hire again for any electrical needs.

Todd was just great. He installed the two astronomical timers I had requested and then knocked out a few other projects I had. He works fast, leaves everything spotless, and get's the job done. He's a real pro.

Todd was super helpful, responsive, and easy to work with. We had him update lighting throughout our condo. He assisted us with choosing exactly what we would need and scheduling for the install was seamless. Would highly recommend Todd and would use him again in the future.

Hardt was able to quickly and successfully install photocell sensors, in our old building which had a strange and incorrect wiring setup. Since the installation our exterior lights turn on exactly at sun up and sun down and we've not experienced any issues since. Highly recommend, especially if you live in an older building!

Not only was I charged for two hours when the electrician was only at my house for an hour - but he dismantled (and broke) elements of my lighting only to tell me what I needed couldn’t be done (which would have been fine if w he haven’t ripped apart my existing fixture). So now I have half of the light in my room v pre-service.

Todd was very accessible and responsive in the preparation for my projects. He was in contact several times and gave money saving advice regarding the needed equipment. He was early on the scheduled day and worked constantly and very efficiently to complete the projects. He also converted two room switches requiring some drywall work and did an expert job. I could not imagine a better electrical service person or a more satisfying outcome. I highly recommend Todd and Hardt Electric if you want the job done well at a fair price. I will most definitely call him again.

The project went well, and was completed in a timely manner. Electrician charges per hour, so getting an up front quote was not available. Project was completed for a reasonable overall cost based on comparable projects.

I recently bought a condo and the electrical wiring was a complete mess. Words cannot begin to express how grateful I am to have had Todd be our electrician! Todd was able to immediately identify, explain and fix the issues. He is extremely professional and takes great pride and ownership in his work. He will forever be my electrician. Do yourself a favor and hire Todd. You will save yourself a lot of unnecessary hassle!

Todd is AMAZING! I was without electricity and Todd literally helped me over the phone. He walked me through the process of testing my circuit breakers. He could have easily came out and overcharged me. He has integrity and he’s fair. I’m thoroughly impressed with Todd’s ethics. I will definitely use Todd’s services again when I need an electrician.

Todd did an amazing job with my project. He was communicative, incredibly fast and fixed a number of problems with my electrical that were discovered as he was doing his work. I was especially impressed because I had old, smart light switches that seemed to have complicated technology. I just wanted them swapped to analog. He totally nailed it and was very thoughtful with arranging the new switches in a logical way.
