I’ve had many projects done at my current home. Some go better than others. This one went as good as the best, thanks to Josh and his crew. Josh took time to listen to our concerns and fixed the problems. He took time to explain everything in simple terms so we were aware as the project moved along. There were no bad surprises.

Current Electric was able to determine that the root cause was an imbalance at the meter. They recommended that I contact the electric company for them to resolve. They also left estimates for a couple of options to upgrade the service.

I set the appointment up for 9:00 a.m. on August 28th. When no one showed up by 9:30 a.m., I called their office and was told they didn't set up an appointment, they just call you when they are within 30 minutes. They showed up at 3:00 p.m. and did a complete review of my house, which I didn't request. I needed some outdoor lighting installed which I had told them every item over the phone when I made the appointment. By the time he was done with the review, he said it was too late to start any of the work. He said he would send me an estimate for the outdoor work and a separate estimate for the additional items he was recommending. I never recieved the estimates or got any type of follow-up call or visit. It was just a really weird and bad customer service experience. Since then, I had the work competed by Total Mechanical in a 3 hour time period and am very happy with the results.

Response from Current Electric Co
[Member Name Removed] thank you for your feedback, we strive to offer the best customer experience but it this case we failed. Communication is one of our points of culture and we did not follow through with you. Our office attempted to contact you the day before about your appointment but we were unable to connect with you. It is standard for all of our electricians to do an assessment for all of our customers, we like to educate our customers, whether they work with us or another electrician. I apologize you did not receive the customer service that you deserve. I hope that you would be willing to give us a second chance to provide you with the 5 star service we stand behind.

Outstanding work. Taylor and Jacob were patient with answering all my questions about a confusing problem and getting the work done quickly, for a very fair price. They also let a 3 year old in the house be their “little man in training” and handled it so positively! I’ll gladly have them back any time I need electrical help!
