Glenn performed a number of electrical repairs on our property - ground rod installation, panel fixes, gfci outlet installation, adding junction boxes. He was very flexible working with us as we were out of town - such as coordinating with others to get let in. We would work with him again.

Glen had come to my residence on several occasions and the last time he was here he Very appropriately started texting me in the middle of the night asking for payment which is unacceptable communication for any business. This was only days after I got the bill not weeks or months or anything that would warrant such inappropriate behavior. Let’s get to the job. This man did not put ground wires on light switches and plugs. On the breaker box he put an overloaded circuit, luckily I found it in time before we use the bathroom, that had 12 outlets and two lights on one circuit and a second full circuit he put in the breaker because he was too cheap to get another breaker. He jammed two wires in this breaker one of them completely overloaded with a kitchen and a bathroom circuits all on one with another full circuit jammed in the same circuit. This man is sick in the head and you should really watch having him in your home. Any so-called electrician that would jam multiple wires in a breaker and I do not mean a tandem breaker or a piggyback breaker I mean a regular breaker. 20 amp. One circuit with a bathroom and a kitchen on one ( overloaded) and a second circuit in the same breaker to clarify. This is a sick man that would burn down my house because he didn’t get the proper attention from me? Find somebody else. This man is not right in the head. Bar none no exaggeration. He is a creep. Sorry no pics this is after we fixed it.

Response from Carman Electrical Service Inc
Ma'am, your vocabulary is not only inappropriate but completely unfounded. This work was completed in June 2019. Who knows how many others have been in your home doing electrical work during the past 19 months. As far as "sick in the head" this is very strong language. My reputation speaks for itself and is not limited to your weak opinion.

Glenn went above and beyond in helping me with the electric component of replacing a piece of siding on my house. He's a super nice guy to deal with, and the price was fair.

I submitted a request for a quote late at night, and the very next morning Mr. Carman called to schedule an appointment for the same day! He was very professional, prompt, fair and patient. He not only fixed our issues, but took the time to explain what he was doing and why he was doing it. If there is ever any electrical needs in my future, I will definitely be calling Carman Electrical Service without question.

Probably my best contractor experience in Lake Ariel. Mr. Carman returned my message from Angies List within 24 hours. I explained the issue and he came over within an hour or so. (BTW, it was a Saturday) He diagnosed the issue, offered options, explaining each clearly, and solved the problem. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Glenn Carman was an absolute professional and personable contractor throughout our communication and interactions. I live in Maryland, and I wanted the ceiling fan (with lights) installed at my parents' house in the Tinkwig development. With that, all of my contact and communication with Glenn was over the phone. He was very prompt and personable on returning phone calls! We originally had the appointment for the middle of August, but when he had an availability come up sooner, he coordinated an appointment one week ahead of the service date. My parents met Glenn and share my praises. The price was reasonable. The job was done quickly, and he did quality service on the installation. We would hire Glenn again in a heartbeat!

Glenn did great! Installing one of the ceiling lights was more complicated because he had to go through the attic ceiling to install another light box. I love how they all look and the price was reasonable, especially for the time Glenn put into it.
