What Long Beach Customers Say
Trusted by homeowners in Long Beach
Eric G.
Long Beach, CA
"Michael saved us on a Sunday afternoon when one of our outlets started SMOKING! He came over, was super professional, and helped get us to a point where we could safely get the electricity turned back on. He fixed up some of our other wiring issues and gave us a couple quotes for other services (not including the attempted IT help ). He came back a few days later and installed a new microwave for us as ours had also recently gone the way of the dinosaur. Yes the house is apparently falling apart. But when we need electric help in the future, Michael is our first call. Thanks!"

"Michael was very responsive and was able to come over to address my issue in less than 2 hours. He had a competitive quote, showed up and was great at troubleshooting a rather complex issue while taking the time to explain why/how he was troubleshooting the way he was. He was able to resolve the issue and I'll be reaching out to him for future electrical needs."
