About us

When I started RC Electrical Services, I wanted to provide quality services in electrical installations and repairs without high prices so I opened a small electrical services company providing a personal service. I don't mark them up to 4 or 5 times over cost like many in the industry do. My pledge is to offer a good, honest value on great electrical services installations and repairs. I've had to many customers in the past few years that seem to like my approach. If you are thinking about reducing your cost in electrical repairs, give me a call I'd love to help you. RC Electrical Services, where we provide results that are the distinction between being called back and being invited back.

Description of Work: These electricians diagnosed and fixed two difficult lighting problems that other contractors had failed to solve. They were prompt, professional and effective. They purchased needed materials as the need arose and charged only cost for these things. I highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again. Thanks !

It went quick and easy.

Description of Work: In October in 2013 I had several outlets in my house that weren't working. RC soon found the problem that there had been an over load on an outside outlet and fixed the problem. In January 2014 at a townhouse I own several overhead lights in the stairway going down to the rec room were not working. RC installed a new type of lights and installed a dimmer switch. He is always timely and his prices are reasonable. I recommend him for any electrical service.

We had moved in to this place in 2012 and were not aware of the extensive circuits in the house. The garden lights did not come on and in some places the wiring was cut. Rene was extremely honest, knowledgeable and punctual with his services. He came in on time, diagnosed the issue, chose to repair the existing circuits and gave us a fair price. He installed a fan in our study and left the place cleaner than it was. We are very happy with the services provided.

rene was very professional. he arrived with all materials he needed to complete the job. i already had the light fixture. the fixture was placed on the ceiling of the pantry. he carefully draped the pantry with plastic so dust and debris wouldn't get on the food/shelves. he installed the fixture, patched the walls where he had cut openings in them in order to run the new electrical wires and tidied up after himself. i am very pleased! i would definitely use his services again. i did get a quote on some other work i am considering.
Description of Work: put a light fixture in the pantry where there had not been any light source before.

The service was done professionally and well. Rene responded quickly to all of my initial emails about services, and he provided detailed information, with pictures and prices, about product options and service. I knew how much the work would cost before Rene showed up, and there were no surprises. The cost was also very reasonable. Rene and his partner showed up on time, were very knowledgeable and professional, and they were eager to make sure any concerns I had were addressed completely. I am very happy with the work that was done. I recommend RC Electric, and will certainly use them the next time I need electrical work done.
Description of Work: RC Electric installed a new attic fan, a bathroom heater/exhaust fan and dimmer switches in 3 rooms
