Tom was super professional and was great at explaining everything he was doing as he worked. He wore a mask the whole time while in our house which we appreciated. For the work done he was affordable and I fully plan to hire him again for any future electric needs.

Tom was GREAT ! A quick response call, fast to come to my home. Very fair and reasonable cost for service. I didn't want a flashy large company that leaves me with a magnet or calendar. I wanted good honest service, and I got that from Tom- University Electrical

They got the work done, great job, collected the money. Had to make many calls to owner to get them to pull a permit and get the job closed out. Don't pay with cash or check or you may not get your permit pulled.

I had two light fixtures updated, Tom was right on time (actually he was a little early but called ahead to make sure it was ok) and was quick and a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely hire him again and highly recommend.

My experience with Tom was nothing short of first rate: • He responded promptly, and was able to schedule me next day at a time that worked for me • He arrived when he said he would, evaluated my issues, and got to work right away • He explained what he was doing, what he found, and gave me invaluable advice and recommendations • His approach was professional and his work was top notch • Tom's prices were more than fair for all that he did • I should add that he didn't try to sell me on unnecessary work or add-ons University Electric was a lucky find. Tom's now my go-to-guy for any electrical work I need in my new home. If you're looking for quality work at a highly competitive price, and honest advice from a knowledgeable electrical professional, give Tom a try. You won't be disappointed.
