Excellent support. Chris inspected and confirmed correct configuration of our primary circuits from the power company. He also provided advice over the phone to assist with an improperly wired 3-way switch for ceiling fans that was causing circuit breaker issues. He is very capable and extremely customer focused.

I was having flickering lights and intermittent power loss in my house. I googled “electricians near me” and called CR Electric. My call was answered and Chris was at my house later in the day, the same day I called. After some troubleshooting, he figured out the issue. He clearly described the issue and what it would take to resolve it. This company is punctual and professional. I enjoyed their company and would highly recommend them.

Chris and his team did an outstanding job and I would highly recommend them!! Chris is very professional, knowledgeable, responsive, punctual, and honest!! This was a big job and Chris gave me several options/suggestions on how he could do the job and achieve the best results for me. Chris was very patient and understanding and explained everything in detail to me, which I really appreciated!! I have dealt with many contractors in my lifetime and one of the biggest problems that I have encountered was lack of communication. This was definitely not the case with Chris. From the beginning when Chris first came to my home to see the scope of the work to the completion of the job, Chris was always very friendly and responsive and if I called him with questions, prior to him starting the job he would always either answer my call or if he was busy at the time, he would text me right away and let me know that he would be calling me back soon, which he always did!! It was a great pleasure to work with Chris and his team and I would definitely hire them in the future for any electrical work that I need done in my home!! Thank you again Chris and team for a job well done!!!!

Chris Ray has been my electrician for over 10 years. He is very responsive and punctual. He respects my home and always cleans up when he is done. I never have to go behind him and check his work. When he finishes the job, I know it’s done right. The most important thing about Chris is that he is trustworthy. I know he’s giving me the best deal for what I need.

I had a electrical short in back of shop that was a major fire hazard. Contacted CR electric and Chris sent his son Greg who is also a outstanding electrician immediately. They had problem resolved in 20 minutes. I have heard them many times and they are a outstanding company. I recommend them highly. - Mike Henry

I was very impressed with CR Electric's work and would highly recommend Chris and his team for any home projects. Chris and his team were very professional and a pleasure to work with. Both rooms were cleaned up by CR and showed no signs of any sheetrock dust. The best part of the job was no additional sheetrock work or painting touch up was necessary. I would not hesitate to use CR Electric for any future electrical related work in my home. Cost was inline with the amount of work performed.

Job went great. I was on short time line to get electrical done so we wouldn't be without A/C. Chris came out the day I called to inspect the job, provided an estimate on the second day and had the work done by lunchtime of the third day following my initial phone call. Workers were professional, prompt, very competent and left the job site as clean as they found it. Price was slightly less than initial estimate to boot. I'll call CR Electric the next time I have the need.

Chris and his son work together. His son came with an apprentice to do the work. When replacing the switches, he said the old switches were wired incorrectly, and that the new switches were wired right. Once the switch to the fan light was replaced, the light still did not work. He then determined the fan light socket was bad, he left to buy another socket, and returned to replace it. Both of these guys were young, yet they were polite and professional.
