Juan did an excellent job, on time and on budget. We have used Oakwood Electric for other work in the past and they always do high quality work. Highly recommended.

Oakwood has serviced our generator for over 10 years and recently installed an EV charger for my new car. Oakwood always provides excellent quality service and are easy to schedule with and always returns calls. Oakwood is local and has been in business for quite a number of years.

For several years I hired Oakwood for yearly Maintenace and part replacement on my whole house generator. Pedro is my go-to technical for home service. He takes the time to explain the problem and what is needed to correct it. He represents the company in a very professional manner. He was very kind in understanding how stressed out I was regarding the potential flooding of my basement if the electricity went out. Tricia follows up on phone calls quickly and provides information I request. She is always pleasant and very helpful. I consider myself lucky to do business with Oakwood and not be tormented by poor customer service. Spending money on service and repairs is never pleasant. However, Pedro and Tricia make me feel like a valued customer. I would recommend Oakwood Generator to anyone.

I needed to replace a ceiling light in my bathroom. The light has been there since we moved in. (1993) This sounds like a simple thing take down the old light and replace with the new. Nothing is ever that simple. Arvy, the technician, while taking down the old light fixture discovered that there was no junction box in the ceiling where the light fixture is. This was not up to code and he had to put a junction box in. His concern was that he would have to cut a large whole in the ceiling that would require replastering the ceiling. He then when back to his shop came back with a bracket and a junction box. He was able to put up the bracket and the junction box with minimal trimming of the hole. Once he put up the new light the whole in the ceiling was covered by the fixture. Great job Arvy ! This is why I will always use Oakwood Lighting for all my electrical needs. Plus as an Agie's List member I saved a chunk of money as Oakwood was running a deal on new light fixture installations.

From getting an initial quote to installing our baseboard heaters, everything was super professional. I loved getting an email to confirm the quote and a confirmation when the work was to be done. Workers were super professional and work was great! Don’t hesitate to hire!

I purchased a Generac 22 KW whole-house generator from Oakwood Electric and Generator in October of 2020. With the supply chain issues, they could not install the generator until March. Last week the generator was exercising (which it does once a week for 5 minutes) when it literally BLEW UP (see pictures). This week Oakwood sent their tech out to look at the machine. And, after doing a 10-minute visual inspection he said, "I have no idea what caused this." However, though they have “no idea” what cause the explosion, they think everything will be just fine if they replace the damaged parts (instead of replacing the whole machine). They ordered the parts damaged by the explosion. So put yourself in my shoes: • You spend 10K on a new generator so you can have Peace of Mind in case of emergency. • The thing blows up after 5 months of operation. • The vendor you bought it from refuses to do anything more than replace those parts visible damaged by the explosion. • Then, every time there is a storm, you get to wonder and worry whether the generator will perform to standard if the power fails. You get to wonder and worry about whether your basement will flood if the generator doesn't work. The folks at Oakwood said, "We can't prevent your machine from failing." They also told me if I wasn't happy with their service, I could work with another Generac contractor (right - because they don't want to deal with the warranty work)! The lady at Oakwood sent me a copy of the warranty and told me to "call Generac" if I was not happy – which I have done. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR - BUY THE KOHLER! It's a little more expensive, but my brother has had a Kohler for 20 years and never had these kinds of problems. Generac is cheap (plastic) and the company does not stand behind their product. I have nothing else to say about Oakwood.

It is unfortunate that this customer has chosen to damage our reputation over an issue with his generator that is not in our control. I am going to respond here with facts so the reader can come to their own conclusion. We sell, service and install Generac Generators but don't manufacture them. We would love it if they would never break, it would make our lives so much easier. But unfortunately, any machine can break. It's an unavoidable problem. We came out the very same day the customer contacted us to troubleshoot the issue. The customers generator did not explode, that is inaccurate. The fan of machine was damaged and pieces of the fan were found in the [Member Information Removed]. We ordered the parts for repair as soon as we could. The customer was demanding a replacement generator. Generac won't replace a generator that is repairable, no matter how angry or upset a customer is. We sent him the warranty statement as a reference item for him. We never stated that we didn't want to do warranty work. We do it all of the time for all of our customers and are happy to. Thank you for taking the time to read our explanation of the situation.04/12/2021

The task initially thought was simple but not. Kevin has great problem solving skills and was able to detect the root cause quickly. We highly recommend this company and we will hire them for our future needs.

The company did give me an estimated: they wanted to charge me an extra 200 dollars for a ladder (some fixtures were about 20 feet obove ground), fan was 14 feet above ground. I thought this charge was preposterous. Used another service who did not charge.

I hired Oakwood to remove and replace an old electrical panel in a house I was remodeling. They responded quickly and their price was fair. They were able to start the work quickly and they were on time and polite. I plan to hire them again for additional work.
