I called on a Monday and a week later, I still haven’t received a call back. I chose this company because of the excellent reviews. Not sure how you run a business when you don’t return calls.....

It was a circuit breaker issue. I had tried unsuccessfully to fix it myself. Mr. Smith responded promptly and fixed the problem at a reasonable charge.

Crew worked hard and provided great value. Showed up when they said and estimate was accurate. One of the items they worked on, a motion sensor, does not work well.

B Smith's Electric has done a fantastic job for us. Brent the owner is professional and personable. We lived in an older home built in the late 1940s that need to upgrade our electrical service from 100 amp to 200 amp service. He was great. I wish I could say the same about the Duke Power subcontractors who came with out any prior notice to install the underground power line for the new service. Duke Power subcontractors started work without looking for any of the marked utility lines and then were incredibly rude over the phone to my husband after they broke a underground pipe! Sorry I digress. Brent worked with us to get the new utility box installed in the house. He coordinated with the city's electrical inspector so that they could inspect this work while my husband and I were away at work. We left in the morning; he did the work, had it inspected and then the power was restored by the time we got home from work. That part was as smooth as it could. We are also using B Smith Electric for another job: installing power to our new screened porch. I'll write another review when that's done (which should be soon). Great to work with and reasonable prices.
Description of Work: B Smith Electric upgraded our electrical service from 100 amp to 200 amp

Arrived on time, gave an estimate, I gave the go ahead and they went ahead and did the job. Only took about 30 minutes. I'm very pleased.

Brent's original estimate was only for upgrading the service to 200 amps and keeping the new panel in the kitchen. When he arrived to do the work I approached him about moving the panel to the basement and splitting off the circuits. These extra tasks would require more work and I told him I would pay more to have them done. He and his crew took most of the day to do the work and he didn't charge me extra for moving the panel to the basement or splitting the circuits. I found Brent to be very easy to work with and he did a very professional job.
Description of Work: Upgraded my 30 amp service to 200 amp service and relocated the service panel to the basement from the kitchen. Also split up some poorly planned circuits into two or more circuits and replaced some old wiring.

He came right out when we called. He came very quickly and solved the problem very quickly. It took him less than half an hour to solve it and I think his hourly rate is about $125 but I am not sure because my wife handled that. We had some other people look at the outlets, nobody could find the problem, and he came in and figured it out immediately. We were very, very satisfied with the job. He was on time, he was very pleasant and he obviously new his stuff. I think his price was very fair.
Description of Work: We needed some electrical work and we used B Smith's Electrical. Some electrical outlets were not working.

The work took him and his crew about a half day, plus an early visit of a couple of hours by Brent Smith to put in the floor receptacle before the flooring people came. Very responsive and on time, despite some bad weather.

I called B. Smith and described the work we needed done. After answering a few questions they gave me a quote ($175) and I scheduled the work. They came at the appointed time, did the work, and then cleaned up the mess they made cutting the hole for a new floor outlet. They were courteous and proficient. The final bill was for the quoted amount.
Description of Work: We had a new family room floor outlet installed and 220v range receptacle. The work was done professionally, including thorough clean up. The electricians arrived on the scheduled time. The final price was reasonable and matched the phone estimate given at the time I made the appointment. I would not hesitate to use them again of recommend them to friends.

This is the third time we have used Brent for electrical services in our home and we would definitely recommend him to anyone needing electrical work done. Brent is courteous, prompt and professional. He explains everything thoroughly and charges a reasonable rate. A good value!

Highly recommended. Mr. Smith was great at identifying problems and explaining them.
Description of Work: Mr. Smith replaced some electrical switches this time. I've used him before, and it has been always been a good experience. He arrived when he said he would, was polite and knowledgeable, and didn't try to sell me services I didn't need. Previously, he has provided the electrical work for installation of my tankless water heater, replaced the receptical for my dishwasher, replaced some ungrounded electric outlets with grounded ones, and put in a electrical new outlet.
