I've had Matt and his staff do work in my Crocker Park home a couple of times. Each time, for estimate visits, project work or a checkup, they're on time, very pleasant and polite, and do neat, efficient work. And the tools he uses for scheduling give great notice (in advance and day of), work order creation and invoicing are all done on the technician's phone. Efficient and effective.

I met with a half a dozen electricians about the knob and tube wiring in my newly purchased house. Chris and his team at Hometown were by far the best. They were extremely thorough on their walk through and their inspection really helped me narrow down the scope of work. When it came down to the work itself, they did an exceptional job at fishing wire behind our lath and plaster walls. I only had a few small spots to patch (no huge trenches or huge holes in the walls or ceiling!). Chris and Matt were great at troubleshooting unexpected issues and really went the extra mile. I got several quotes and proposals for the rewiring, and Hometown's quote was by far the best and there was no change in the cost when the final bill arrived. I also really appreciate their financing which allows me to pay over 18 months with no interest. I highly recommend going with Hometown.

I have used Hometown Electric for several years now. They have performed various electric work for me: replacing light fixtures, installing outlets, install microwave, install dryer duct, etc. Chris is always very professional, prompt, knowledgeable and very pleasant. He always cleans up and never leaves a mess. I would highly recommend this company. (They also offer a senior discount)

đź‘Ť Received appt reminders as well as updates on technicians arrival. Arrived within approximately window. He pointed out and fully explained each of his findings. Made cost-effective suggestions and did not try to upsell. He is currently working on putting together an itemized estimate. We were confident enough that we already scheduled a future date to complete the necessary repairs.

Chris and his apprentice were extremely timely, responsive, punctual and professional. Chris has done work for me previously and is always straightforward, honest and a delight to work with. I will continue to use them for all my electrical needs. Besides replacing the panel, they installed a new ceiling fan in our bedroom and a new light fixture.

These guys were awesome! Chris and Bryon were a great team. They were pleasant and easy to work with, but kept things moving and really know their stuff. I couldn't believe how smoothly everything went! I was very lucky that all three rooms already had fan boxes in the ceilings, all my bulbs were already dimmable, and all the switches I bought or already had worked perfectly with everything they did. That said, I was still amazed that they had all of this done and immaculately cleaned up in 4 hours flat! I couldn't believe how quickly they put that new outlet in! I honestly don't know how fair their pricing was, because I have nothing to compare it to. When they first came for their free estimate, Chris offered options that would save me money, like buying my own switches. I opted for that, and he was really helpful in making sure I had all the info I needed to buy the right things. I also love that this company is locally owned, and I believe a 4-man operation. I love that! Their technology surprised me, knowing how small they are. I got timely confirmations and they were just really easy to work with. No question, when I need electrical work done I will call them again!

I particularly liked that the technician who ultimately did the work was the one who came out, scoped the project, and provided an estimate. That allowed us to discuss the details and explore options before the work was actually done. It also gave me an opportunity to meet the technician who was going to do the work. Matt was on time, thorough, gave me a chance to view the progress of the project, and completed it within the time frame expected.

Appointment for estimate was easy to schedule, regular updates were provided for estimated time of appointment. Project was reviewed and estimate was provided within a few days. Estimate was a little higher than one other, but organization and professionalism seemed worth the additional cost. Project went well. Again, regular updates were provided for the estimated arrival time and project completion. One or two items needed clarification during install, but nothing to complain about. Technicians were on time, professional and friendly.

Chris has been here to do numerous projects from a outside deck rewire/repair, new GFI for new deck install. He inspects and makes sure all the old wiring he is replacing is to code and if not he brings it to your attention with a solution for resolution. We have Chris back time and again to make improvements on our home.

I am very happy with the service provided by Hometown Electrical Doctor. I was seeking to have three new outlets installed on the second floor of our home as well as a new ceiling fan downstairs. There were two things that separated this company from the others I received quotes: 1) Matt from Hometown Electrical Doctor was the ONLY person to go into the attic to see where wires could be run for the new outlets upstairs. 2) When I asked about pulling a permit for the work he said he would do just that. I had two places tell me it was not necessary and one responded with, "If you want me (to)." These two things, to me, say a lot about Hometown Electrical Doctor. Matt showed up with another person the day of the install. An old ceiling fan was removed and a new one properly installed. Three new electrical outlets were added upstairs. I need to mention that another one was added via conduit to replace an existing outlet. The conduit was run in a bedroom and looks great! During the install another technician showed up to assist Matt and the other employee. Everyone took care to not track mud or dirt in the house. The people were friendly and answered any questions I had. The work passed inspection by the city. When it comes to work of this nature I think of the following quote that is attributed to Ben Franklin: "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." I mention this because getting good, reliable service is not always inexpensive. Yes, cost is relative to each person. It's important to remember that you're paying a person or company for their expertise, time, equipment, insurance, materials, etc. I sought out an outfit that was licensed by the state of Ohio and insured. I don't have to worry about whether the job was done right or not.
