This is a copy of the message I sent Viva . I just wanted to thank you for your service. I truly appreciated the fact that you were willing to come out and give me a free estimate. You arrived as scheduled and even checked out my microwave( not the reason for the visit) while you were here. After I explained the problem, you walked me through the reason and solution. On the day of the repair, your guys arrived as scheduled. They quickly did the rewiring that was that was causing the circuits to trip. They may sure that they cleaned up the areas afterwards. Before they left, the asked me if I had any questions. I will definitely share my experience and your name with friends. Thank you again.

Jimmy & his team did an excellent job taking down old and installing new light fixtures! They were very friendly, professional and timely. He even came back a few days later and raised a fixture that we decided should be higher! Highly recommend Viva Electric and will definitely use them again!

Paul and Shannon arrived as scheduled. They worked quickly and efficiently to troubleshoot and resolve my electrical problems. They found and repaired a short in one circuit and installed a GFI receptacle in my garage. They were very professional I would not hesitate to use Viva again.

After calling at least 8 electrician, Jimmy was the first to answer my call and the first on the site to look at our issue. He was on time, professional and his quote was very reasonable. I offered to pay for his service call, and he declined, saying he did not charge a service fee, I found that very unusual these days. I will definitely be using Viva Electric again.

Jimmy did a fantastic job! I called a total of 3 electricians and only 2 called me back. Viva Electric is the only one that kept the estimate appointment and once I agreed to the estimate, he started work 2 days later. He was on time, very professional, thorough and cleaned up as he went along. His prices are very reasonable and I would highly recommend him!!!

The office of a non-profit organization for which I provide volunteer IT services had outgrown it's current location and needed to move. They found ample space in the education building of a local Charlotte church. The three rooms contained a total of 7 electrical outlets on an unknown number of electrical circuits - not enough for 10 or more desktop computers, 3 laser printers and various and sundry other items. Additionally, we needed to run Ethernet lines from a central switch to 13 locations in these three rooms. And finally, we had to provide AT&T a route to get their fiber inside the building and to the middle room of the three where the gigabit switch was located. I received a quote from an established, well-respected electrical contractor for $4250 for the electrical work, and another quote from a custom cable installer for $4450 to run the Ethernet lines. When I requested a quote from the electrician to run for both the electrical work AND running the Ethernet lines, I didn't get any response. Rather than asking for more quotes from big, established contractors, I searched Angies List for firms which might not be quite as busy. Viva Electric seemed to be a new company with only a few reviews, all of which were positive. So I called and asked for a quote for both the electrical work and running the Ethernet lines. Jimmy Giler arrived exactly on time to survey the area. His quote arrived before it was promised. He quoted $5500 for the electrical and Ethernet work (thousands less than the combined quotes from the more established companies). Later, when AT&T was unable to provide Internet and telephone services because they couldn't get their fiber inside the building, Jimmy provided that access for them and ran another Ethernet line from the fiber location to the switch box location for another $300. He estimated that the work would take 5 days for two men. He himself showed up (along with his father, Wilson) to do the work - once again, exactly on time. We went over a detailed plan of where we wanted to outlets placed and where we wanted the Ethernet lines run. He positioned everything EXACTLY where we wanted it. Because of the construction of the building, he was able to run wires in the attic, but he was not able to run the wires behind the walls (due to the presence of purlins) so he ran the wires on the surface of the wall covered by a raceway. This was done very neatly and the brackets were screwed into the drywall using drywall anchors. At the end of the job, he used touch-up paint to cover any little nicks or imperfections. All the Ethernet connections were tested and labeled. All the electrical outlets were tested, and the dedicated laser printer outlets (single receptacle per circuit) were labeled. This job took two men five days to complete, and I know that the days were longer than eight hours! In my opinion, Jimmy Giler did an exceptional job. He is absolutely my electrician of choice from now on!
Description of Work: Add six electrical circuits (11 wall outlets) to three rooms; run 25 Ethernet lines from a central location to three rooms.

This is a new business but I was impressed by his demeanor and knowledge when he gave us an estimate for installing a bathroom exhaust fan in an older home. He showed up on time, completed the job in the time he told us it would take, the clean up was thorough and the final bill was as estimated. While this was admittedly a small job, I liked his work ethic and would use him again for future electrical needs.

I highly recommend ViVa Electric!! We had planned a New Year's Eve party and wanted our home to look its best, we had them designed and install landscape lighting around the exterior of our home and we could not be happier!!! They captured exactly the look we wanted and they were able to get it done quickly and with a short notice. Jimmy was so helpful and coordinated our project in such a time crunch with outstanding results.
