I first contacted them about 3 or 4 years ago to add lighting to areas that had never had it and to replace some fixtures. They were very professional and nice and did a good job. But they are expensive and don't take credit cards. I called about a year later about a door monitoring unit. Came out, was professional as always but ultimately never followed up with me and never did the job. I still contacted them about 2 years ago when I was remodeling our kitchen. Got a very professional estimate and lighting plan from them but the cost was so exorbitant, (and remember, it's cash only) that I was forced to call other companies and the four I contacted had better rates. The one I selected was significantly cheaper and did an even better job than they had the first time for me.

This the second time that my thoughts were requested for the same work, same company. If requested again I will ignore all further requests for all companies.

Excellent. This change has made a great improvement in the comfort of this room. The new heaters Mr. Bonnet suggested are more efficient and less intrusive than the old one.

Power to our bathroom went out on Thursday. The GFI outlet wouldn't reset and resetting the breaker didn't help. We did some troubleshooting Friday morning but couldn't figure it out. I called another electrical company, but they couldn't fit us in until Wednesday. I called Ridgeway & Ernest, and they told me that they didn't have any more appointments on Friday so we would probably have to wait until Monday. They called me back fifteen minutes later to let me know that Don, the owner, would come out on Saturday, which he did. The problem took a little work to figure out, but he was able to restore power to the bathroom in about an hour.

It was at least 5 years ago now and no complaints. They were receptive and helpful with specific requests and permits. Sometimes things took a bit longer than expected but I guess they are busy!

Very professional. They advised us what generator best fit our needs, installed carefully among the bushes that are masking it, and do spot checks as well as yearly maintenance.

Very smooth, efficient, and professional. The electrician arrived on time, quickly did the work and did a great job of explaining what he was doing. I'll definitely use Ridgeway again if I have other electrical issues.

Electrician was neat and professional. Job took much longer than expected based on explanation from the company when the appointment was made. When the bill was presented, the cost to install one fan far exceeded what was quoted as the cost to install 3 fans. I asked to speak with the office and the person who spoke with me was rude. I was told to pay what I felt was appropriate. I paid $200. Work was fine, value for money and accurate estimate not so fine.

They are very good. They were fantastic actually. They were so courteous. We whole have a notion of idea we wanted to do and they understood, created a plan and executed it. They were good. They were never late. I think there were 3 people altogether; one for the estimate and 2 for all the installation. It was only 3 days.

I can't say enough good things about this company. You don't see business ethics and practices like this anymore. They are top of the line.
