I have used RECO for business and personal projects for many years. The most recent project was building out our basement for an in-law unit with a kitchen. We have an older home and they were great with all the issues with old electrical equipment. The work easily passed building inspection and we continue to be very happy with the work.

Robert's Electric & Team came to the rescue! We had a situation take place after the recent storm; however, Amanda (Office Personnel) & Joe (Electrician) made this difficult situation 100% better. Amanda was extremely responsive during booking and Joe came out to assist. Joe was professional and understanding of our situation. He took the time to explain everything and put us at ease. After, both Joe & Amanda went above and beyond to ensure we were up and running. Communication, follow up, and overall customer service was unmatched. Thank you again!

I needed three electrical outlets installed and had a tough time getting bids in COVID times. The first I got from another reputable business was a crazy-high flat-rate per outlet price (this isn't my first rodeo), and a couple others were booked for months or had other issues while Roberts Electric was ready to provide what I needed, priced on a time and material basis which is exactly what I wanted.

The electrician arrived on time and did excellent work: one super easy outlet, one medium hard and one that was a pretty complicated job requiring multiple holes to be cut in the wall. In the end, his time and materials was less than half what the expensive company quoted and having observed the work, it was very fair. The only place to improve is that the company doesn't manage their email well.

I first submitted a request through their website and about two weeks later I get an email, "Do you still want to do this?" I immediately replied yes and never got a second response. I called them the next day and got everything quickly set up, so my advice is simply to pick up the phone when using RECO.

I've worked with Roberts many times, starting in 2003. They are not cheap but they do good work--as others here have written. But they are s-l-o-w at submitting their estimates. The last time I asked them for a quote, they came out quickly to see the job then promised an estimate in a few days. I continued to call for a few WEEKS. At one point the estimator even assured me that they wanted the job. But I never did hear from them.

Just an all around horrible experience with RECO. They send different guys on location every other day, so you have to spend half a day walking them through everything and bringing them up to speed all the while they are billing you for this and you are losing your time. Then they double bill, don't complete the work, don't clean up after themselves (spools of wire and trash left under our building), etc.

I am a firm believer in bringing issues to people attention so they can fix it. I even contacted the owner. Martin came by and saw that many items weren't completed and then he disappeared. After 6 months of back and forth and no work on their part, I hired an other electrician. He fixed and completed their shooty work. Of course RECO is still trying to bill for work not completed nor done correctly. Just outrageous. I would never recommend using these guys.

Martin and his team were fantastic. They arrived early, completed the job on-time, and were just generally pleasant people to be around. They installed a car charger, exterior lights, and exterior outlets on a 1929 house -- and everything looks really good. Would recommend them without hesitation.

Expensive but responsive and the work is top notch. They finished the work and the inspectors approved it.
