We had a very small project and Ethan called me right back after we posted for help from an electrician. We were not in a big hurry as the job was small but Ethan stayed in touch and sent Brendan (forgive me if I got that name wrong Brendan!) who was pleasant and took care of doing the job in no time flat. We really appreciated the help with this and can't thank you enough! Pris & Leo Simoneau

Thank you very much for taking the time to offer such a kind review. I met Brendan the first day I ever did electrical work and he has worked with me with every company I have been involved with. He is our most recent addition and feedback like this about him in his first few weeks with us has made me look like I'm a smart guy............ I have shared this and your review on Google with our team and you started my day with a big smile! Thank you for your patience and kindness in leaving reviews on both platforms. Our livelyhoods heading into what would seem to be uncertain times financially are dependent on our customers attesting to what I promise which is the level of service you have described that everyone who works here puts forth daily often without recognition (I often get the credit for their hard work). Thank you again

I was in a tough situation without an electrical connection for my new hot water heater during the winter. I spoke with the owner, Ethan, who answered my call and was very sympathetic to my situation. I sent him a few pictures of the heater and electrical setup. He diagnosed the issue and arranged for his master electrician, Chris, to provide same-day service with no emergency fees or surcharges. Within a few hours, Chris arrived on site. He was courteous, competent, and efficient in safely and expertly wiring my water heater -- no simple task considering the older wiring arrangement of my 100-year-old residence. Chris patiently and clearly answered all my random layman's questions in terms I could understand. When the bill came, there were zero surprises, and it was in the exact amount that we had agreed upon. I will definitely be using Greater Portland Electric for my future electrical needs, and I highly recommend them to anyone requiring the services of an electrician.

[Member Name Removed], I am embarrassed to be reading this so late and just now offering my thanks. I can't describe how I feel any time someone is willing to put their name next to mine with a positive review. When people take the time to detail their experience with Greater Portland Electric as a whole it is a enormous source of pride. When one, or more, of the people who make Greater Portland Electric what it is are mentioned by name it creates a positive impact which ripples through everything. Christopher is one of the few technicians I've had the pleasure of working with who understands what I'm trying to do with this company and embodies the character first approach I believe in. As we grow the only way to not have the product we offer decline is throgh establishing a company culture that is in alignment. Christopher is the foundation which creates the company culture through leading by example and I truly appreciate being reminded of this. You have single handedly got my day of to a good start and for this I thank you ! Ethan

One of our hot water heaters, at a condominium complex, developed electrical problems on a Sunday. Ethan came out quickly and got it back up and running with ease. Our guests were very happy.
