Well, while they were here, but didn't wire a designated outlet for microwave as she stated she would, & 2 outlets don't have power. No response to texts after job was considered "complete" & she was paid. ?

Tracy is great!  She is patient and she looks out for her customers' best interest.  She is on time when scheduled.   Quality of work and material used is outstanding.  Easy to work with and communicates well.  Would recomend Calahan Electric to anyone.

We did not know what to do.   We had spent $15,800 trying to get the electrical roughed in, and had less than zero to show for it; that's because any new electrician arriving on the scene would first have to clean up the mess left by those before him.  Here is the lesson: once an electrical job is messed up, it is very hard to find someone honorable to come straighten it out; Incompetent or dishonest newcomers will come in to supposedly "help" you, and use the fact that someone previous had made a mess as a smokescreen to take advantage of you and hide their greed, laziness, or lack of skill.  One has to know the right people, and unfortunately for us it took a while before we found Tracy Calahan.
Tracy is amazing.  She arrived and quickly got to work inspecting what had been done and evaluating the best course of action.  She and her crew did everything perfectly and without any prompting from us.  Not once were we uncomfortable or worried she might show displeasure if we wanted her to change something. 
Tracy and her team put in long hours cheerfully and without complaint.  They worked with authority and knowledge and kept us informed all along the way. There was a happy, helpful spirit about them that made it a pleasure to have them around.  One could just see and feel that they were good people.  We did not have to worry about her wasting our money.  To our shock, she even thought of useful ways to save us money without compromising the quality.  She did everything exactly as I would have done ( I am an engineering professor ) if I had adequate knowledge in her field.  It was as if we were her family and she was just trying to help us.  
Tracy is articulate, accurate, knowledgeable, efficient, and much more.  Talk about taking stress off of us!  Nothing seemed too difficult for her and her crew to handle.  She also thought of things we had not considered.  She mentioned that we could opt to wire in an RV electrical hookup with relatively low expense since the walls were exposed. She was not trying to sell us anything--this was an option we wanted to hear about, and we are glad she did. We had her do it for us.  She is fair and honest, and just a very, very fine person.  We wish she lived next door to us, and we hope to stay in contact with her for as long as we live in Cookeville.  She is a class act.
Final Thought:  Years ago a good manager told me to not give a review with a perfect score.  Always try to put in something a bit less than perfect, he said, for otherwise people will not believe it.  Well, I cannot follow his advice here, for that would be completely dishonest.  Tracy deserves the perfect grade in each of the categories listed. I would give her "A+" grades it there was such a category.

I called and requested an estimate to intall wiring for a dryer. They came and gave me a price and completed that job and also gave me an estimate to rewire all existing electrcal and ad two additional outlets. They returned and completed that work promptly. I am very satisfied with every aspect of my experience with this vendor.

We just recently moved into this house and desired to add a few touches. Outdoor outlets strategically placed are a great convenience, and ceiling fans are a wonderful power saving tool to keep from having to use A/C all the time in the summer. When we decided it was time to hire an electrician I first contacted one I knew from my volunteer work with Habitat For Humanity. In the past two years I've been first-hand witness to her work on the job site (most of which she donates to HFH). Her knowledge and conformance to codes as well as her dedication to good quality work led me to hire her for the job at our home. The person who reads this will no doubt want to know the answer to three basic questions: Is the contractor qualified and dependable, Does the contractor price their work fairly?, and Will the contractor perform in such a manner that I will want to hire them in the future?For us, the answer is YES to all three. In addition, Ms. Turner is a good communicator and offered suggestions/alternatives to our initial plan based on her experience. We were very satisfied with the work done and the fairness of the cost.
