"Lighthouse Restoration Group replaced and upgraded my electrical service — two new panels, 400 amps total — and it’s by far the cleanest install I’ve seen across all the upgrades and repairs we’ve done at our house. The before photo shows the dangerous and sloppy work that accumulated by probably dozens of different electricians. These guys saw this and were appalled. Now see the after. Every wire is perfectly routed, tensioned to spec, and labeled. It looks like something out of a training manual. What really stood out wasn’t just the craftsmanship but the professionalism. They checked every single outlet, light, and appliance in the house — not “most,” not “some.” Every one. They even torqued each lug exactly to manufacturer spec. No shortcuts, no guesswork. They’ve got pride in their work, and it shows. If you actually care about doing things the right way — not just “getting it working” — these are your guys. I’d hire them again in a heartbeat."

A great remodeling experience doesn’t happen by accident—it starts with choosing the right company that offers excellence through expert project consultants, professional designers, dedicated project managers, master installers, on-time project completion, and a 3-year project warranty. Our smooth, simple, and innovative approach ensures that every step of your remodeling journey is enjoyable, fulfilling, and frustration-free.

"The quality of work is fantastic, and Marek is the best project manager you could ask for. The reason I removed one star is because I believe the quoted contract price, specifically for allowances, can improve. You should expect to add a minimum of $20,000 to your contract price. I also recommend referring to your contract throughout to ensure you aren’t getting an extra charge for something that should be included. Like I said, the quality of work is fantastic, but the up front pricing can improve."

"I am currently doing extensive renovations on my 2-flat property, and working with reliable, skilled professionals is essential. C.C. Electric exceeded every expectation. From the moment Cristian responded to my inquiry, he showed the utmost professionalism. He came out promptly to evaluate my electrical needs, walked me through potential solutions, and provided a clear and detailed proposal. I reviewed it with my general contractor, and we agreed to move forward. We already had materials on hand (after a previous electrician never returned—long story), but Cristian and his team stepped in seamlessly. The scope of work was extensive: installing 19/00 boxes for new wall receptacles, adding new conduit, installing two new ceiling fans, new light fixtures, and a new bathroom exhaust fan vented to the side wall, just to name a few tasks. Cristian and his team completed the work in just three days, and the quality was exceptional. Even my GC had nothing but praise for their craftsmanship, "

"I wish all the contractors on this basement project were as good to deal with as Family Waterproofing. Throughout the whole process, communication was good. Ken the owner was responsive and patient in answering all my questions and addressing concerns. They prepared a detailed contract of all work to be performed, and did what they said they would. I like that they did an exploratory dig after signing the contract to make sure we had a solid plan and avoid any surprises during installation. There was an area under the basement stairs and an old cistern that required a creative solution. They came up with a solid plan that didn't add extra cost. I asked them to pour some extra concrete under the stairs which wasn't included in the contract, which they did for a good price. The crew was friendly and had a good natured camaraderie on the job. The overall cost was very fair and we received great service and quality. They are honest, care about their customers and want you to be happy. Now I'm looking forward to a big rain!"
