Electrical for Home Addition or Remodel - Install, Electrical for Home Addition, Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade,

About us

I hold an unrestricted electrical license in Georgia with freedom to work in NC, TN, and VA. I am a certified Lutron lighting technician and do consulting work for a variety of lighting applications to include all LED installs. I specialize in eliminating receptacles from kitchen back-splashes and installing high intensity, low energy LED under-cabinet lighting with full dimming control. I also teach the Master Electricians Exam Class. My company does both residential and commercial projects. I also am a certified lighting control technician. Recently we've completed projects that range from installing high-bay commercial lighting to changing out a light switch. My customers tell me that they trust my electrical evaluations and my work. I am often commended for being on time and communicating via phone if I will be delayed. I've never had an unhappy customer because I do what I commit to, and I don't bill the customer until the work is completed to their satisfaction.

In the summer of 2014, I gave Powerworks a B review. Let me clarify something -- I was NOT meaning to give Powerworks that grade. John was very professional, did the job well, and I was very pleased with his work. The only problem I had is that I wasn't very clear about what I needed. He did everything (and beyond) that I actually needed from an electrician. The only thing I can figure out why I gave him that review (unfortunately, did not see it after I hit enter b/c I was at work) is my own mistake and user error. In fact, I want to hire him again for another job. Sorry, John, that it took me 5 years to rectify this. I don't get on Angies List that often so didn't see your response.

I had a dimmer switch catch on fire and completely melt. Luckily damage was contained to mostly the outlet box. Matt came out to inspect, replace charred wire, and install new box and switch. Great work, great service. Very professional. Would highly recommend.

John figured out the problem quickly and fixed the corroded wire just a quickly. I appreciated the availability of the Saturday morning appointment and was happy to get functioning outlets back.

Came out multiple times because didn't have right equipment or information wasn't communicated between employees.

HDMI was not completed due to difficulties. Was disappointed bc I still had to pay $125. They did spend a few hours but you would think that electricians would have these things figured out. Have skinny hdmi cords with long lengths to sell on spot, or behind the tv brackets for cable box etc... Couldn't do wifi thermostat because there was no c wire pre-installed. ( why they didn't check during estimate is beyond me) Had a local heating and cooling guy (well versed on updated thermostats) come out and told me to buy a relay on amazon and then put thermostats in for similar cost. Great work on things that were completed but disconnect between estimate and actual install. Overall disappointed.

No follow thru and lack of communication. Seemed very over priced for what they did and they did not fix the problem.

The electricians were on time, professional and eager to help me complete the project. They did a great job doing exactly what I asked for. They even helped brainstorm some future electrical projects.

Outstanding. Matt was able to diagnose 1 bad outlet that was the root cause for most of the issues. He also changed an outdoor light for us, replaced a few GFCI's and provided a diagnosis on 2 additional outdoor outlets that had been installed by the previous owner for landscaping. He was extremely helpful, quick and easy to work with.

The Ryan's (both their names just happen to be Ryan) on John's team were fantastic, always on time and paid great attention to every detail. Professional outfit and very reasonable $$ for 3 days of work + materials. will definitely use John and his team again.

John Donaldson the Master Electrician was very professional and explained everything as he was testing the circuits and replaced one of the outlets in the bedroom and flourescent lights in the pantry and closet. He was on time, explained what he was doing and completed all the work in under an hour (about 50 minutes). I would definitely use PowerWorks again for electrical issues.

Things went extremely well. All of my electrical needs were met promptly, professionally, and in a friendly manner. The electrician, John, was early to the appointment so I didn't have to wait. He instilled in me a sense of confidence and trust of his technical expertise. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

John and his guys were very professional and punctual.  They got the job done quickly and cleaned up after themselves.  The new lighting in the kitchen has made a world of difference.  I will definitely be calling them back to take care of other lighting projects around the house.

First of all, I called John around 1:30pm to schedule an appointment for an estimate. To my pleasant surprise, he said he could come the same day and was at my house 3 hours later. My husband happened to be home, but true to other reviews on Angie's List, I felt perfectly comfortable with him in my house. He is a true gentleman. (After telling me that he was a former school teacher, I now understand why he is so calm and patient because one has to have the patience of a saint to work with high school kids!)
At any rate, John had both tasks done within an hour. Did I mention that the upstairs light John fixed hasn't worked since we moved in? That was about a year ago!  I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for this light to be fixed and it kept getting put on the backburner as our "to do" list grows and grows. It was time to call a professional and give my sweet husband a break. Thank you Angie's List! I would never have found PowerWorks Electric without you. 
       I will be calling PowerWorks Electric again for other projects in the future and will definitely recommend him to others. Thanks John!
