He was very professional and prompt with his service. He gave me an up front cost for the work and even came back to perform a walk down with the city inspector.

Cargo electric performed above and beyond the call of duty. Rodents had chewed through the electrical wires on my deck. The original contractor used indoor wiring for an outdoor job. Cargo electric replaced the wiring with the outdoor wiring and put it in conduit to protect it from varmints. They added a security light outside of my garage, extra, protected outlets inside my garage. They also added a light on steps coming from my garage (which is below my deck). I feel much more secure. They left the area cleaner than when they arrived!
Description of Work: Replaced my electrical wiring on my deck and garage. Added security lights and extra plugs in my garage

Nothing to say but they scope the work well, the executed well and they did a great job. Full, down to the studs gut of a master bath and they identified a mismeasure on the carpenter's part. They are the best!
Description of Work: Cargo is the only electrical company to use in our oppinion. They are the very best, well priced and professional. We have a rental house we will be using them for in the future as well.

The guys came (Eric and his borther), delightful, courteous, and punctual. Thjey went overboard and uncovered the issues immediately. I had another electrician who had come, but had no clue what he was doing. These guys were also very fair on their price.
Description of Work: Troubleshooting of electrical problems in house and installation of lights.

These guys are exceptional. They are not cheap, they do not cut corners and they do not hurry. Do not even bother to shop them when it comes to electrical supplies, I tried, they give you a fair price, get the job done right and very well. I will not ever hire any other electrician.
Description of Work: Installed recessed lighting in living room and dinning room along with switches

My husband and I hesitate to put reviews up for these guys because we are afraid they will be too busy to do work for us in the future but the results, their approach and professionalism deserve a five star review. These guys are on time, professional, we never worry about the quality of their work (this is the third time we have hired them in less than a year) and they charge a fair price.
Description of Work: The Cargo brothers brought a power line in, installed 14 recessed lights and four switches.

Great. They were a delight to work with, they showed up, got the job done, and now we have two working garbage disposals. We added moving an electrical box, and will also add additional electrical work in the near future.
Description of Work: They connected 2 garbage disposals and moved an electrical box about 6 inches.

Ron is by far the best contractor we have worked with since we bought our money pit of a house three years ago. He is a true professional. He was prompt, did just what we needed (even going above and beyond), and his price was reasonable. I have recommended him to a friend and she was just as pleased with his work. I would hire Ron again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: In September 2006, Ron upgraded our electrical box and did some other misc. wiring. (We are delinquent on entering reports!)

Cargo is a wonderful company. This is the second major job we've used them for. They are professional, prompt, very high quality, and do the work to a high standard for a good price. Whenever something special was needed, they responded, arriving several times at special moments just to coincide with the kitchen contractor. These guys are our only electricians from here on.
Description of Work: Rewired whole kitchen for remodeling. Installed new outlets, wired new 220 for cook top and double ovens, did wiring and installation of under cabinet lighting, installed ceiling light, light in hall cupboard, door bell.
