We are a fully Licensed, Bonded and Insured family owned business with over 20 years experience. We believe that "Quality comes First" on all of our projects, no matter the size.

"We had a few small odd-jobs to do around the house, concerning electrical work, and found Creekside here on Angie's List. Andy from Creekside was extremely responsive via text, in which I could send him pictures of the issues and he could get back to me with an estimate. He came to perform three jobs for us: - Take out an old living room chandelier from the 70's that had six separate cords going to six separate bulbs on a dimmer. Install new chandelier with a single cord and single bulb. - Fix/Replace a transformer for a doorbell ringer that has been buzzing for the last 6 years. Previous electricians said there wasn't anything we could do about it. - Install a timer switch for the bathroom heat lamp. I tried doing this myself, and while it worked, it was a consumer grade item from Ace Hardware that had its knob break on multiple occasions. In all three cases, Andy exceeded expectations. He did a great job of swapping out the lights, he replaced the transformer with a new one and it doesn't buzz anymore, and the timer switch is a nice button timer that counts down in 10-minute increments. On top of that, he came in under bid. Andy is FANTASTIC and his company will be our go-to electrician from here on out, no matter what the job."

"MISSING TIME ON ISSUE AND MONEY I had a mixed experience with Randy's Electric regarding my recent service appointment. Bateman was scheduled to come on October 27th, but unfortunately, the tenant was absent, and he couldn't access the property. The following day, Brian Ringgenberg arrived and provided the necessary service. He was very professional and informed me that there would be no charge for the missed appointment on October 27th since it was so close to the previous day and that it would all be consolidated into a single bill for the current service, which involved assessing the situation and changing some fuses. However, I encountered an issue when I checked my credit card statement a week later. To my surprise, I noticed that I had been double charged for the service. Despite contacting customer service multiple times, I am still waiting for a resolution regarding the refund of $199.00."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.
