Our power went out at 11pm and half the house was dead. They answered right away, arrived within the hour, and found a bad neutral at the panel. Truly 24/7 service in Derby.

Added outlets in the home office and a dedicated circuit for the mini-split. Quick, clean and reasonably priced. Our go-to electrician in Derby now.

Generator installation went smoothly from quote to startup. They coordinated with the propane company so we didn't have to. Lost power last week and didn't even notice.
