"Craig Desrosiers with Safe Electric did fantastic work for me right before Christmas. I liked how he arrived on the dot on time. I was so pleased with his work in fact, that I hired Craig a second time today, 12/27 for an additional several hours to install more Lutron Caseta radio dimmer switches for our home and landscape lighting control, which I love. He also installed new duplex outlets that were expertly cut and fished with no holes for me to patch and paint -what a relief and huge convenience to me. This was a very challenging job, especially since they were undoing improperly completed work previously done by a less experienced and unreliable electrician that I foolishly hired as side work (don't ever do that like I did a month ago, because you do NOT get what you think you paid for). Spend the money, hire a recommended licensed, experienced, and honest electrician. He tirelessly trouble shot and traced extensive track lighting fixtures throughout our mid century modern home. It helped to have all items purchased and ready for him to install. The few things I didn't have, he easily had ready to install from his work van. He was definitely prepared. Craig didn't cut any corners, he charged me a fair hourly rate, and most important: everything was done this time perfectly and safely. I feel strongly that when resale time should ever come around in the future years from now, I won't have any further issues or questions from a buyer's pesky home inspector, thanks to his job done right. 'Wish I'd called him first! I now have his cell number saved in my phone, and will gladly pass it on to anyone who asks me in passing if I know of a good electrician I can recommend. Call Craig first! He's the Lutron master pro, and he's been a licensed electrician for over 30 years...and his experience and professionalism shines bright and safe in my home, that's for sure."

"Great job! The electrician did exactly what I had asked. I had an overhead light roughed-in for a finished room. He made the smallest a fewest holes possible to run the wiring. This made patching very easy. I will happily use Columbus Breeze Electric again."

"I was pleased with the installation of the lightning rods--communication was great and the work was done quickly. What I wasn't happy with is he quoted me a price that was less then my actual bill was BUT the price was still less then two other contractors bids."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

When comparing quotes in Mount Vernon, be wary of contractors who don’t provide detailed, written estimates or avoid explaining labor and material costs. Watch for anyone pressuring you to commit quickly or requesting full payment upfront. Lack of local references, refusal to guarantee their work, or not addressing how their services comply with OH electrical codes are all signs to consider another professional.

Helpful?

New homeowners in Mount Vernon should begin with a thorough electrical panel inspection, especially in older homes common to the area. Upgrading to GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas is crucial for safety. Testing and replacing smoke detectors, adding surge protection, and installing additional outlets in living spaces are smart steps. Bringing wiring and grounding systems up to current OH standards is also highly recommended.

Helpful?

In Mount Vernon, homes built before the 1980s often have aging electrical panels, knob-and-tube, or aluminum wiring that may need updating. Kitchens and bathrooms frequently require new outlets or circuit upgrades, while basements and outdoor spaces face issues from local humidity and storms. Attic wiring and exterior outlets are also vulnerable to temperature swings, so regular inspections are important for long-term safety and reliability.

Helpful?

For electrical maintenance in Mount Vernon, it’s helpful to keep a non-contact voltage tester, digital multimeter, insulated screwdrivers, and wire strippers. Stocking up on GFCI outlets, wire nuts, electrical tape, and weatherproof outlet covers is wise, especially with the area’s frequent rain. Surge protectors and outdoor-rated extension cords are also essential for protecting your home during seasonal storms and unexpected power surges.

Helpful?

In Mount Vernon, many homeowners are blending smart home features with the area’s historic charm. Popular upgrades include smart dimmers, USB charging outlets, and programmable thermostats that suit older homes. Outdoor projects like weather-resistant landscape lighting and motion-activated security lights are common, especially to handle local storms. Energy-efficient LED lighting and upgraded electrical panels are also trending to improve comfort and reliability year-round.
