I would give Mr. Howard 10 stars if possible. We needed an electrician to put in a 50 amp circuit and outlet when we replaced our 38 year old range. I did a google search and found him on Home Advisor. We wanted someone that we felt like we could truly trust since it was electrical. I read the great reviews for him and we were very impressed. I called Mr. Howard and he came out to see what needed to be done. He came back a few days later with 2 young men and completed the job. Our cost was less than expected which was wonderful! He is very prompt, courteous, professional and fair. We consider him our new electrician. If we need anything else done I will definitely call Mr. Howard!

AC Electric was Professional and their customer service was outstanding. My home warranty company had 4 different Electricians come out and the job was still not completed . AC Electric came out on a Friday and reviewed the problem and the entire job was completed on Monday. I would recommend AC Electric to anyone needing electrical work done.
