I was very impressed with Craig and his helper. I called on a Friday afternoon after being stood up by another electrician. Craig arrived first thing Saturday morning and promptly supplied me with an estimate. His price seemed very fair for all the work I needed done. I scheduled the work to be done and it all went smoothly. Craig was very accommodating. Since I had not decided on the exhaust fan or lighting I needed, he brought me choices and made suggestions which was above and beyond what he needed to do. Craig and his helper did a very good job cleaning up after themselves. I will be hiring him again in the future to replace my circuit breaker panel.
Description of Work: Non-working kitchen and garage outlets repaired. Bathroom exhaust fan installed. Over the kitchen sink light installed. Porch light replaced. Whole house surge protector installed.

The entire experience was very satisfying. Craig was prompt to reply to my initial inquiry, gave me an estimate the following day, and completed the work in less than five days.
Description of Work: I needed power to a water feature and lights in the back yard. Craig responded to my email in about 1 hr., came over the next day to give me an estimate, and completed the work in thirty minutes the following week. He was early to the appointment and completed the work in a very professional manner. I would certainly use them again and recommend them for electrical work.

We needed a 20-amp circuit for a new sauna. Craig determined the most cost-effective and efficient way to do this. He also suggested we should consider a whole house surge protector, so we did.

Craig was great. He explained the cost to do what I wanted and then gave me a less expensive alternative. I called at 8:30, they came right over, went out to get supplies and finished the whole job by 1:00. They were prompt, fast and friendly. Thanks!!
Description of Work: I purchased a home with a old gas stove. I prefer a glass top electric stove, because they are much easier to clean. My electrical panel could not accommodate an additional breaker and there was no 220 plug setup for the stove. I also might add a hot tub later. They added an another breaker box and ran 220 to the stove. They went above and beyond when they installed the stove, helped me level it and moved the old one out to the garage.

It was great! I had just moved into a rental house built in the 1930s, and none of the outlets are grounded. Craig came right out the same day I called and recommended a surge protector be installed on the outside of the house instead of grounding individual outlets. This was a wonderful suggestion as it was very affordable and took no time at all for him to do. Craig was very friendly and helpful, even reminding me to get some fuses in case one of them went out on the old electrical panel outside. He also showed me how to replace them!
Description of Work: I had a surge protector installed on the outside of the house to ensure that all of the old outlets (house was built in the 1930s) would be grounded.

The worker arrived on time and immediately started to work. They brought the plug that needed to be installed with them. Bruce went under the house to work with the wires that Craiq was removing in the kitchen. Craiq installed the plug, they cleaned up and left. When the range was delivered the plug was different. I called Craiq and he came back. He installed the right plug at no additional cost to me. He then set up the range, including the clock. He should me how to use the range and check to make sure everything was working properly. Great Job.
Description of Work: A 220 outlet for a new range was set up and insalled.

I had an electrical failure late at night which left our household without any hot water. And, we had family due to arrive in a few days for the Holidays. I called D. C. Electrical and spoke to Craig early the next morning. He said he would come by the house in about two hours. He showed up a little sooner than that. It turned out that the loss of power was an intermittent problem, and power had been restored by the time Craig arrived. He checked what things might cause such a problem and then made a couple of suggestions for the prevention of a future mishap. I aggreed to his suggestions and he made the changes. Craig was very helpful, thorough and professional. But, with an intermittent electrical problem, you can't know if the actual problem was. So, if the problem returns, he is the person I will call.
Description of Work: D. C. Electrical diagnosed the probable causes for an electrical failure on one circuit zone in our house. As the problem was intermittent and the failure could not be reproduced at the time he arrived, he made suggestions for the most likely causes of the problem. He replaced a possibly faulty circuit breaker, and redirected some of the power load on that circuit to another circuit, thus reducing the possibility of tripping the circuit breaker involved.

Craig and Bruce were punctual and came in with a lot of energy and started working immediately. We purchased a home in South Lake Tahoe and needed to address several items found through the inspection report. Craig did great work and addressed and investigated every need. They came out to the house when I was unable to be there and continued to finish the work as well. Craig offered great advice and troubleshooted all items that were on my list. I would highly recommend his services to local residents in South Lake as well as out-of-towners. Craig was very flexible in responding to my call even though he lives in Reno, NV.
Description of Work: Install whole-house surge protector, label panel, install can lights in 3 bedrooms, hallway, over kitchen sink and over counter top, install new lighting in garage, repair back porch light, install new lights (3) to front of house, update light switches to rocker style, install light fixture in family room, install 3-way switch, move light switch for laundry room to new location, install GFIs in kitchen and where needed.

From start to finish this was a great experience. Craig and his assistant arrived early and were done in less than one hour. The quote matched the final bill and I received the Angies List discount as well. Craig even quoted me for a big job I thought I needed done but kind of talked me out of it. Who does that? He is very honest and honorable. I will recommend him to anyone who asks and probably to those who don't ask, cuz that is just me! Thanks Craig.

They are a small company. They were really outstanding. They were very courteous and very professional. Surprisingly enough they knew what they were doing, which I don't find very much anymore. I would absolutely recommend them. I have nothing bad to say about these individuals. Their price was darn fair. I think somebody else would have taken me to the cleaner. They did fine. They came on time at the appointed hour. It wasn’t an emergency. There were two of them and they were fine, fine gentlemen. I would be proud to have a glass of wine with them. I kept them card so I would use them again.

I called DC Electrical based on info from Angie's List. Craig was willing to come out to my house in the country ASAP, arrived on time, was very easy to work with and very personable. I called them back for more work, which they performed expertly, except for a minor glitch which they corrected on a Saturday morning. I will probably use them again, even if the price is slightly higher, just for the great service.
Description of Work: I recently purchased a house and had DC Electrical do the repairs recommended by the inspector. They were so prompt and efficient that I had them install 5 new ceiling fans as well.

Craig and assistant arrived early and immediately started in as I guided them to the outlets I was concerned about. They replaced the 1st outlet. The 2nd outlet they replaced the box intirely - it had not been properly attached. the 3rd outlet they tightened up the box so that was no longer loose (it moved back when you plugged into it). the 4th outlet they corrected the conection. They checked all outlets to make certain that power supply was correct. They were here approx. 45 mins. Best part for me is I now have the piece of mind that everything is electrically correct. They were professional and polite. I will call them in future for any electrical needs.
Description of Work: I called D.C Electrical to have them come to my home to resolve some elctrical issues. I needed to have some outlets checked out as to their safety. After I described to Craig what I would like checked out he told me that a service call would cover it. quoting me $125.00. He further stated he could respond this afternoon.

Craig is a great professional. He returned by call immediately late on a Thursday afternoon. He was at my door the next morning before 8 am ready to fix my problem. He was personable,, elicited my trust, and did the quickly and correctly. Craig's assistant , unfortunately, though friendly, did not reflect the same level of professional appearance.Camo dress struck me a bit odd. They were there less than 45 minutes, so I felt like $130 was a little high. I will definitely use Craig again and I recommend him highly
