Surge Electric came early in the morning and were gone by lunch time after installing brand new lighting fixtures in and out of my house. Then added an outlet in my backyard. Great job and very professional. I am very pleased with the work. It turned out better than I expected.

Reasonably priced, does a great job. Have used twice and completed jobs in less than an hour. Was professional and well experienced. I have used others but Surge will be my electrician for now on, unless something changes.

We moved in to a house of crazy electricity! We were replacing some outlets and found out through John that half of our upstairs was not grounded! One of the rooms we use as an office, so that was very scary. John was so responsive and fit us in so quickly to his schedule. Even when we found another outlet was not working, he can right away to make it right. I will continue to call him for all out electrical needs! Highly recommend!

I could not have been more pleased. When lights went off on the first floor of our two story home, John worked us in with a visit within 48 hours. He is a 5-star professional electrician who arrives with a well-equipped truck so he has what he needs at his fingertips. In two hours, he replaced a nonworking GIF, replaced a blown circuit breaker, installed replacement LED bulbs in the second story outside lights up in the eaves and replaced wrongly-installed outside receptacles on the deck.

The price he charged was very fair. No question about it - he rates 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. He's also been recommended by Angie's List for the past eleven years. If you need an experienced, capable, honest man for residential electrical service. you've won the lottery with John at Surge Electric. I'll recommend him to everyone I know anytime they need electrical repairs. He's the best I've ever worked with.

Amazing service. I travel typically and so it's really difficult for me to have any type of electrician work done usually, but surge was able to help me with amazing customer service and was extremely flexible to help match my tough schedule. The work was done perfectly and everything was left clean and organized for a competitive price! I also spoke to the owner over the phone who was very polite and personable when handling my scheduling issues
