Description of Work: Mike Akers installed a dedicated breaker and receptacle in a bedroom, and also installed a whole house surge protector. His technical approach was superior to a couple of the other quotes I received, and his price was better than most as well. Did a superb job and I will definitely be using him again in the future. Highly recommend.

Very difficult to get in contact. A friend had used him during his renovation and had recommended him, as did several contractors. After a couple of phone calls was able to get an appt. set for a quote. First appt was canceled due to an emergency repair. Rescheduled and he showed up on time and was very friendly and professional. Took notes on legal pad and said he would get back to me. A couple of months later, and a couple of messages later - still had not heard back. Finally was able to get in contact with him and he vaguely remembered the work. Emailed me a quote about a week later that was very affordable and much lower than competitors. Went out of town for my father's illness and returned several weeks later. Emailed him that I wanted to get work scheduled and did not hear back. Left a message at both numbers and still did not hear back. Finally ended up with another company. My job was small and maybe that was the issue. Had heard very good things, but in the end I have to be able to communicate with them!

Mike Akers is great! He fixed the line, which took some digging through mud and weeds (I had left it there for a while after the "incident" where my friend cut through the line with a shovel), so it was not fun work. However, Mike was professional and courteous, and laughed "with me", not "at me" about my silly predicament. He was prompt in making the repair, and quite frankly I think he undercharged me for his time, which I told him at the time, but he still didn't raise his rate. It was intricate work, lying prone on my cement driveway, wiring stuff eight inches below the garden's surface where the cut main line was. He was a pro, and showed me his handywork when done with the fused wires all capped neatly, tested the garage for registering the electricity and all the electrical outlets in the garage building, and then borrowed a trow to move all the dirt back overtop of the line to re-bury it under the earth's surface. What a morning!
Description of Work: A friend cut my main electrical line from the house to the detached garage while installing post holes for a backyard fence. I hired Akers Electrical after the power company said I was responsible for the damage and the repair.

Very well. They finished the work on time and even patched the sheet rock around the panel box.
Description of Work: Have used them several times. They removed a fuse box and installed a breaker panel in my personal residence. Worked with our general contractor on a rental home remodel.

They did a super job. Mike even recommended better locations for two of the lights than I had indicated. The lights they installed accent the artwork on the walls perfectly!
Description of Work: Akers electrical installed eyeball lights in the ceiling of my kitchen and relocated the light over the sink.

I left Mike with a crude drawing of what I wanted: 7 double fluorescent lights, 8 outlets and all tied in using conduit. When I came back that night it was better than I would have imagined. Mike and his guys do an excellent job.
Description of Work: Lights and conduit in the garage; additional outlets.

Mike's crew was neat and efficient. The new lighting totally transforms the room and the kitchen is brighter and more usable. The lighting on our son's portrait is my wife's favorite part of the family room. It's amazing how different the two rooms are now. We are thrilled!
Description of Work: We had Mike Akers consult with us on designing new lighting for our kitchen and some accent lighting for the portrait of our only child. Mike shared his ideas with us and we really liked them. We then contracted him to install his design.
