Reviews from Portland Customers

★★★★★

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 Portland.

They replaced all our smoke detectors with interconnected units before we sold the house. The inspector had zero issues. Easy to schedule and very polite.

Donna M. · Portland, CT
★★★★★

Had recessed lighting put in the kitchen and living room. They laid out the lights so there are no dark spots, and the dimmers work perfectly. Our Portland home looks brand new.
