"Carlos and his team installed a GFCI outlet in my five bathrooms and 16 can lights. The job was complex but done professionally. He was polite, reasonably priced, and left the work clean and detailed. I’ve decided to trust him with any electrical work. 5 stars for GLP Electric."
"Daniel addressed a not so straightforward switch replacement that I had botched. Not only did have to install it right but also had to diagnose and replace the circuit breaker in the panel. He also had to further diagnose a wire that had been melted and address that as well. He showed great problem solving skills, cleaned up and was extremely professional and friendly. Even though the job took much longer than expected, he still only charged what he had initially stated. Would hire again."

"Devon was retained to install an EV charging port. He was knowledgeable, experienced, professional, punctual and courteous. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him."
"Alex and his team are excellent communicators, dependable, punctual, and amazing at their craft. They upgraded my panel, installed under cabinet and over cabinet LED lights for my kitchen, created a dishwasher hookup, installed additional outlets, and went above and beyond by installing a second switch that lets me control my cabinet lights from another location in my home. The end result is so beautiful! The right lighting makes such a big difference in the beauty of one's home. Thank you, Alex, David, and the rest of your team!"
"Start to finish the A To Z Electrical Company is the best electrical team we have hired. Millie is such a pleasure to work with. She is efficient, courteous, and friendly. She helps to make things work seamlessly. Bob Iovino understood exactly what needed to be done and did everything in a professional manner. He squeezed me in although he had a very busy schedule. He is courteous, friendly, and in no time he had the job done and it was done right. It truly was a pleasure doing business with him and the company. We recommend them highly."
