Eric and his team did an amazing job. They were very helpful. Getting all the required permits in calvert county. Eric talked to the electric company to get evetlrything scheduled. When the job was done he contacted the office for inspection. All we had to do was sit back and wait.

Terrible. Im extremely disappointed. The fans that were installed i have to repair myself as they wobble and make noise especially if on high speed. Also the fans looks like they will fall. Additional the ceiling lights the electrical didn't measure and are not by any means not aligned and crooked. I will have to reinstall these as well. I was trying to save some money but I am totally disappointed. Wasted my money and time.

Hi Ifesincahi I'm really sorry to hear about your experience, and I appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. This definitely isn’t the level of quality we aim to deliver. We’d like the opportunity to make things right. The issues with the fans and ceiling lights sound frustrating, and we’d be happy to come out, inspect the work, and make any necessary repairs at no additional cost to you. Your safety and satisfaction are important to us, and we want to ensure everything is installed properly and up to standard. I received your email this morning. We would like to schedule a time that works for you. We hope to resolve this quickly and earn back your trust. Thanks again for your feedback we take it seriously and are committed to improving. we can schedule a time that works for you. We hope to resolve this quickly and earn back your trust.

Schmidt's performed exceptionally well. The professionalism, experience displayed and expedient service not only saved money but found problems of which I wasn't aware. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing electrical services.

I hired Schmidt's Electric on 10/03/2023 for a renovation project in Charles County, MD. Erik Scmidt sent me a quote for $6960 and asked for 50% down, which I paid. The contract stated that he would finish the work by October 13, 2023. Up until November 27, 2023, I was still trying to get Schmidt's Electric to honor their contract with me. Schmidt Electric did not finish the work that I paid for and the little work that was done caused the county to shut down my project due to his tampering with a panel without a permit. Schmidt Electric did NOT pull permits to do the work despite my paying for it and the owner being a master electrician, knowing better. Due to his extremely poor work and poorer work ethic, he cost me over $15,000 in overruns to include hiring a new electrician. I have repeatedly asked for a refund to only be met with belligerence. I will be pursuing this matter in court but, in the meantime, save yourself money, time, and heartache by NEVER using this company. If I could give zero stars, I would!
Description of Work: Pull permits, install new panel, recess lightning, and switches. This was a renovation project and hiring him was the worse mistake!

Greetings, We appreciate all feedback and take customer concerns seriously. However, we would like to clarify that no signed contract was in place for this project. Despite this, our team completed work for which we were not compensated. We strive to maintain the highest standards of professionalism and transparency in all our business dealings. Our strong reputation, as reflected in our customer reviews, speaks to the quality of our work and commitment to service. Wishing you the best,

Erik called in response to my posting within an hour. After explaining my problem with a circuit breaker, he suggested that I follow certain steps which quickly resolved the issue without his coming to my home and saved me the expense of labor and parts. I am very impressed with his willingness to serve and his integrity!
Description of Work: He gave advice on determining which device in the room may have cause the tripping of the circuit breaker and not the breaker itself. As to the future plans, I will be contacting Schmidt Electrical again based this interaction!
