Customers say: Quick response

"I hired ESV, Inc. to install a new range hood, and a install new light and switch in the master bedroom closet. In addition they fixed two light boxes in our town home's basement that were not properly connected with electrical boxes. From the moment sent my inquiry to when they left, the communicated effectively the estimate and scheduling of the visit, were on time for the work, and their two electricians that came to do the work provided exemplary service from start to finish. I'd hire them again in a second."

"I am a happy customer and will recommend Cody Malone Services! Even though I got a slightly cheaper quote from someone else, I chose Steve based on two things: past reviews and his willingness to stop by my house to give a quote. His deputies Jeremy and Demeric did all the work. They were very polite, professional and hard working young men and have a bright future ahead. They also wore masks all the time which I really appreciated. On last day, I asked Jeremy to do a bit of extra work to replace a switch but he didn't ask extra money for it, which I liked, and so he/they earned the tip. I have recommended Steve to couple of my friends already and will definitely hire them for all my future electrical/lighting projects."
