Certified Electrical Technologies

Al the electrician had to check several outlets to get to the problem and was an outstanding guy to have doing this. Al ran down the problem and we talked about the issue as he worked. I would have this man and company back anytime. This was a warranty call for my warranty company, but they picked a good vendor to do their work. Very satisfied by this service.

We worked with CET several years ago to install recessed lights in our basement; Rob did a really great install so we knew we’d somehow work with them eventually. Fast-forward to last month: we wanted to install more recessed lights along with a ceiling fan in our living room. Lucky for us, we were able to work with Rob again. The shape of our room is awkward and asymmetrical, but Rob provided some great options and suggestions, and pointed out some details we wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. He was professional and completed the task ahead of schedule. It really changed our space for the better -- we’d highly recommend this company to our family and friends. Thanks CET!

We have used Certified Electrical many times over the years. Alan is the tech who usually does the work. He is very experienced and does a great job!

Excellent job. We will hire this company again.

Amazing... Gary was actually able to resolve my issue on the phone. NOW, he could have come out to the house for a couple hours and billed me, but he didn't. I would have never known the diff. This is a company of high integrity and when I do need service they will be the first I call!!!

CET responded quickly to get me an estimate, sent a very experienced electrician to inspect the existing panel, and did a clean and effective job.

They were good. We like their work.

I requested a quote through Angie's list. I received a call almost immediately from a technician, who walked me through troubleshooting steps over the phone and helped me confirm the problem was not electrical. Saved me $100+ for someone to come out and do the exact same thing. They'll definitely get the call from me the next time I need anything.

CET is fast, organized, and provides great value for money. The technician moved from one task to the next quickly and efficiently. A great resource.

Great! It was very easy to schedule an appointment, the technician was on time and efficient. He also provided solutions and a quote for a future project. Overall, very pleased.

Ease of scheduling, along with 2 text confirmations, provided assurance prior to the appointment. The work was done professionally and neatly. He explained where he would cut into the drywall and made sure I was in agreement before he proceeded. I have used CET for other work over the past 6 years and will continue to do so.

This company deserves, if it were possible, more than just five stars. Gary, the owner, is himself an excellent electrician, and he has chosen efficient, reliable, honest people to work for him. I have had Gary do work for me on previous occasions and I feel it is my duty to let others know that such people do actually exist today. It is indeed a pleasure to write about Gary, who is scrupulously honest, reliable, and trustworthy. Above all, he is a thorough gentleman. His is indeed a dying breed. On 11/17/20, I had a difficult situation in my rental property, with the tenant saying that an electrician was needed urgently as none of their appliances worked after a dishwasher install, and there was no power in the house. Gary sent his technician who rectified the situation efficiently and at a most reasonable charge. Such is the honesty of this company. We as consumers truly wish we had more people like him in the trade.

Another great service visit from Certified Electrical Technologies, my go-to electricians I would recommend for anyone. I submitted an online request, and they followed up with a phone call to make sure they understood what I was looking to do. The technician called 30 minutes before his arrival, double-checked to make sure what I was looking to do, and provided his recommendations. The work was done much faster than I was expecting and the charge for the service was much less than what others were looking to charge for similar work. I have used this company multiple times, and they have always been honest with their work and what they charge.

Excellent service-on time and completed quickly. I always call CET for my electrical issues.

The tech wasn't able to figure anything out. I had three tasks and none were completed. The real issue was, he was scheduled to show 1-5PM and showed up at 3:45. He had another job after me so he left after a couple hours (1st hour is more expensive). I spent an hour troubleshooting one of the issues myself and fixed it after he left. I'll work the other issues myself. How can I pay hourly and not be promised a result? Crazy business model...

Great. CET called ahead and was right on time. The Technician was quick, professional and courteous. I knew what the costs were before he showed and that was that exact final charge. He fixed the problem so it won’t happen again.

Vatthana from Certified Electrical Technologies arrived exactly at the time specified. He quickly diagnosed all of the issues with my home's receptacles and fixed them with seeming ease. He tested other receptacles to ensure they were working properly. He very quickly installed a smoke detector and a lighting fixture with seeming ease. Overall, Vatthana worked very expeditiously and completed all of the work much faster than I thought possible. He was so fast it felt like there was more than one technician involved even though it was only him. Vatthana was very friendly and did not hesitate to take some time to explain things to me about how the electrical systems in my house work and what the underlying root issues were. Overall, it was truly a pleasure working with Vatthana and having him in my house. I could not be more satisfied with the stellar service he provided. I was pleasantly surprised that the total cost of the work was less than I was expecting. This was my first experience using CET, and I will definitely seek their service again solely based on the exceptional service that Vatthana provided me today.

Electrician arrived on time and was prompt, professional and thorough when completing the work.

I've worked with CET three times in the past 5 years and have been impressed with the electricians. The owner, Gary, tends to be abrasive and generally lacks professionalism and a general sense of customer service. To be specific, I called to request a quote for installing an Ethernet wall outlet to connect my router. A simple request that was understood by the 3 other electricians who provided quotes. Gary claimed to not understand exactly what I was requesting, constantly interrupted, and had a condescending tone for the entire call. I will never again use CET for services, even for a better price. Customer service matters!

I hired GET to fix two exterior safety lights which were half dead. Didn't fix completely. it seemed to work at the time but the problem persisted until 6 years later.

Excellent! Quick professional service by Andrew. He arrived on time and explained in detail the work to be done along with consultation about required deviations.

All went well. Electrician called when he was about 30 min. away, was very professional, and worked quickly. I thought $135 for half an hour was a bit expensive; unsure if $35 per detectors a bit expensive, but I guess they have to make some profit.

Gary was VERY helpful and responsive in assessing the scope of the job and arranging the work (Condo panels have different requirements for surge protector installation). Technician arrived on time and did the installation quickly and efficiently. (Could have cleaned up after the job a little better). Would hire again.

Right off the bat I’ll state that after he arrived, I (a 50 year old woman) had to provide and carry a stepladder from my garage to the upstairs for him to access my attic. At first he said he would need to damage the drywall to connect to an electrical switch. He fumbled around for awhile and then stated that there actually happened to be a junction box at the recessed lighting below that he could use - not sure why it took so long to figure that out. He charged me for an hour and a half of work to connect the already installed attic fan to the already existing junction box - $276 (initial estimate was $200).

Phone answered immediately and Gary was extremely helpful. We have been clients of CET for years. We would highly recommend them. Gary took the time to review some simple options to check ourselves prior to having the expense of an in-person appointment. It turned out to be an easy fix on our own and confirms that we selected the right company to do business with. When we have needed them to come out in the past, it was A+ work, which is why CET was the only place I called.
