"It's about two hours after I shared my electrical issue on Angi when I received a call from Jordan West willing to help me out. He was in Hilo side and was about to head out to Kona. So he asked me about my electrical issues and I explained it to him. He asked me to take pictures of my main panel box and the type of breaker. I sent him the pictures and all the informations and he showed up hours later, did some tests, replaced the breaker and BOOM, there was light. Everyone in the house were happy. It only took him two minutes of work to restore back electricity to my home. I am forever grateful for this particular gentleman a job well done. Way to go Jordan West and your company. I will definitely hire him again whenever I encounter electrical issues in the future. Much Mahalo Jordan West."
