This place is amazing! Andy Cullin called me quickly to determine the best time for the appointment and to understand my problem. He went to the job that night to inspect the meter. He did most of the work over the weekend without me needing to meet him there and and he scheduled the inspection. He took care of everything. There was no stress on my part at all. I will ONLY call Cullin Electric for any and all my electrical needs in the future. Thank you Angie's List for leading me to these guys.

The team arrived promptly and were very courteous. They reviewed the scope of work and touched base along the way to make certain the work was being completed to our satisfaction. They were pleasant and worked diligently. I was very pleased with all the work they completed. They also cleaned up afterward. I would definitely recommend them to friends and will be calling them for any future electrical needs.

I cant say enough good things about Cullen Electric. Andy was prompt to return my call and scheduled to come out the next day to review the job and all my questions and concerns and set up an appointment as soon as I looked at his proposal. His team ( two wonderful women Lily and Giselle) were a joy to have in my home because not only were they hard working courteous and fast but neat and thoughtfull even suggesting ways to complete the job with the least amount of damage to the textured ceiling even if it was more time consuming for them . They worked as if it were for their own home.I highly recommend Andy Cullen and his team and wish they were also plumbers and carpenters because I would never need to call anyone else.

First, we chose Cullen Electric to upgrade our electric panel for us. Part of their service was to check outlets/fixtures in the home for a safe condition. After reviewing our situation, our house was a fire waiting to happen, with melted wiring detected, aluminum wiring, copper wiring combined with aluminum wiring, wrong outlets (not to code) used in our home, not to mention that much of our electric was not even to current codes. After careful thought, we decided to have our home upgraded with complete re-wiring and to have everything to code, so that we could feel comfortable living in a "safe" home. We got a few estimates, and decided to go with Cullen Electric on this project, based on two factors: the estimate was extremely detailed right down to every outlet/wiring in each and every room, and the owner, Andrew Cullen, was extremely courteous and appreciative to us at all times. Once the work began, the electrician assigned to do our job was courteous at all times, kept us involved with the work at all times on a daily basis, and neatly cleaned up after each and every day of work. Our project was a huge project which went into a 9th day to complete. There was not a single day in which the electrician/helpers left us in a situation without electric in the key areas of the home such as kitchen/bathroom, etc. Our price was perhaps not the cheapest, but the quality of the work completed and the courtesy of the employees of this company were second to none. For any size of electrical work that you would need done, I would highly recommend Cullen Electric.

Andy was punctual and professional throughout the entire job. His quote was detailed in scope of labor and materials. In addition, he help me value engineer a solution that was code compliant and met all my needs. He went above and beyond by dealing with Duke Energy who could not work themselves out of a paper bag. I highly recommend Andy and his crew.

Prompt morning appointment. The two electricians entered, I showed them the problems and the hardware i bought for the jobs, and they went to work. Total work time was about 3 hours(my guess) , an hour for the fan, an hour and thirty minutes in the garage, and a half hour in the bathroom. Very efficient, professional, and personable people.

I could not be happier with his service. Work was done quickly & very well ( I am an electrican with a business so I would know) Two lady helpers were dedicated and constantly busy. He even preserved an outlet I needed on the box for a special service. He did not nick pick for charges and items not in the detailed quote. I like that. Call Cullen electric with confidence.

The rep was very polite even though the property owner had the job done by a non certified electrician before he arrived here (she had not informed Cullen Electric she no longer needed their service). He inspected the work and pointed out what should have been done to have the job be per code regulations. I was very apologetic about his efforts being a waste of his time and he said there was not a problem.
Description of Work: Responded to call from the rental property owner. Owner had work done by an electrician that was not certified. When Cullen rep came to property, even though the work was done, he offered to give me an assessment (I'm a tenant ) of the work done. Work was not done according to City of Cincinnati codes.

Thank you for the review!

Thank you for purchasing a "Store Front Service Offer". As you stated the "Offer" was for an Over Head service and your existing service is underground so we could not apply that to your specific needs. I apologize for that and I hope the refund process through Angie's List went efficiently for you. Thank you for your review and if I can assist you in any way in the future please do not hesitate to contact me personally anytime.! Thank you for your review!

They changed a ceiling fan and light fixtures, add several outlets. I used them first on a coupon deal. Later I called them again to work at my second son's house. I am crazy about the two women of Cullen Electric and I have recommened them to neighbors. I will use them again when I do any work at my house. They made some recommendations that enhanced the outcome.

We were very pleased with the great service we received from Cullen Electric. We are installing a new micro hood and questioned the ability of our current breaker box to handle it. Our home is 40 years old and we expected to be told we needed a complete new service box which would have been very expensive. We were pleasantly surprised when Mr. Cullen said the breaker box we had was fine. He gave us some great advice concerning the electric installment for our new appliance. He did not even charge us for coming to our home. If we have future electrical needs I will definitely call Cullen Electric.

I needed an outlet for a new appliance, which required a new breaker. However, the breaker panel I had was 35 years old, and there had been problems with the breaker company over the years, it was now out of business, so new breakers were not available. Even if something could be used, it could constitute a fire hazard. The solution was to install a completely new breaker panel. (This breaker panel problem was confirmed to me by a friend who does remodeling, and another contractor I contacted, so it was NOT something to generate more business.) Mr. Cullen explained what would be done, and he estimated it would take about 6 hours to complete. Lili and Gigi arrived at the time specified and finished in about 5 hours. They were personable and very professional, and obviously knew what they were doing. Every one involved was a pleasure to work with.

Lilly and Gigi did an excellent job - lighting is beautiful and now no more shorts and fuses blowing due to electric overload! It was also a nice touch that Andy recommended colored sheets to put over landscape lights during holidays... so now the lights reflect in red and green for the christmas holidays... very pretty! Lilly also set up the timer for us so was all set and ready to go. Given how pleased we were with this project, we recently contacted Cullen to install an outlet in the floor of our office. Of course knew they would do a great job at a reasonable price, but we thought of adding an outlet right in middle of hardwood floor installation project and was pleased Cullen could work this into their schedule and complete so quickly. Will love not tripping over cords going from desk to wall since now have outlet under desk. Thanks Andy, Lilly and Gigi!!!
Description of Work: We've used Cullen electric for a few projects and have been very pleased with quality of work, timeliness, personable and friendly nature of the team as well as fair and reasonable pricing. Over the summer we first contacted Cullen Electric based on Angie's List reviews. We had gotten a couple bids for a landscape lighting project and Cullen's pricing for same work was more fair and reasonable than the other bid. Additionally had the reviews from Angie's list that made me confident in choice of Cullen for this work. In addition to adding landscape lighting we needed additional outlets, circuit breakers and timer installed.

I wanted to replace the federal pacific panel because people said it will cause fire due the breaker does not trigger. I had 3 quotes and Andrew was given the quote precisely and on time right after he sees what needs to be done. I am really happy with his service and what the answers gave to me about my questions. He showed me the meters has been moved to outside and what needs to done afterwards. I would recommend anyone to Mr. Cullen's service.

The electric service was installed as agreed on the first house. The crew was on time and communicated very well the scope of work. The work was completed correctly the first time in one day. The electric service for the second house was not a direct replacement. The service was upgraded from 100 amp to 200 amp and changed from overhead to underground. The driveway was cut and trench was dug for the new cable installation. The owner of the company was very good at explaining my options for the work and provided a clear estimate before beginning. The work was completed in a few days and passed inspection. I am very happy with the installation and have recommended Cullen Electric to other friends.

The team that Cullen electric sent was very friendly and efficient and now our new patio lights work and look great. The job that was scheduled before ours ran long but they still came out even though it was after 5:00pm. They had to run the wires through the conduit from the patio outside to the basement and then back up again to the switch which was a bit difficult since it went pretty far with a few sharp turns. They were able to get all the wires run to the proper places and the new light fixtures installed in less than two hours and were very pleasant and cheerful while they got it all done.
Description of Work: Cullen Electric wired up new light fixtures built into our new patio so that they will work off of the old switch for the outside lights.
