This was my first time using Forest Electric but it will not be my last. Gordon was more responsive than some of the other contractors I contacted (answered calls or returned missed calls the same day, returned all emails the same day or before 8 a.m. the following morning) and he and his crew were professional and pleasant to be around. They were able to perform the job I needed faster than two other contractors I contacted and at a better price. They kept the work site clean and did a great job.

My ratings are based on their personalities and how comfortable they make me feel in my home. That is very important to me. We have used them about four times. I will absolutely use them again.

The main breaker in my circuit breaker panel melted down on a Friday evening. I called Forest Electric and they came out that night and got one leg of the service back up and running so I at least had some lights and stuff. Since parts were not available for my panel anymore, I opted to have them replace it with an upgraded 200A panel and new meter base. The work was completed the following Wednesday and they did an absolutely fantastic job at a great price.

Came out within 24 hours to provide and estimate that was well priced compared to other estimates. I was not home at the time but he left the estimate for me in the door.

The owner and his associates were totally professional in their approach to the job and in its execution. They were organized, courteous, and efficient. I will not hesitate to call Forest Electric for all my future electrical needs.

Forest Electric did what they said they would do when they said they would do it. What more can you ask for? Well, in addition to that their work was neat, clean and done with pride. The men doing the work were friendly, professional, and fun to work with. I have recommended Forest Electric to friends who needed smaller work done and they were equally satisfied.
