Hill Electric did an excellent job installing our fixture and the extra outlets we requested. The 2 employees who came to do the job were super friendly and polite, and communicated very well, even explaining how to used the new remotes and programming the timers. Bonus. They even vacuumed the area after the installation. Everything works perfectly. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend this company. We had no power at our house due to a breaker failure, they had a tech out the same day and he fixed it for a very reasonable price. Service: General repairs

Report
I hired Hill Electric for a big remodel of my kitchen and bathroom. I paid them a lot of money for the work they did, and the last project was to install some light fixtures that we were waiting on and to install a power strip in an appliance lift I had built in my kitchen. The light fixtures didn't come in for three months, and when I called them to install them and wire up the lift, they told me that they would not wire up the lift because of some concerns they had, and that they were too busy to come install my light fixtures.
Instead of telling me three months ago that they wouldn't wire up the lift, they left me sitting in my house with no power for my lift for all this time. The owner called me to confirm they would not wire up the lift, and instead of apologizing and telling me they would come and install my light fixtures for free the very next day, as he should have, all he did was give me the names of two other companies. This was the last of many service lapses over the course of their work on my house. I recommend avoiding this company.

Hill Electric Installed new load centers in my 50-year-old condo. They supply the best electrical equipment on the market. The workmanship is extraordinary. I am more than happy with the results.
