I recently used Hayes Electric, prices were very reasonable, and work was excellent, I will used him again if I need work done in the future.

We used Pikes to install 50amp service for a hot tub. They did a great job and were roughly half the price that Hayes quoted us. We also had Lenhart install a couple outlets in the soffits of our lanai under subcontract to our motorized shade company. We were also very satisfied with them.

Hayes Electric did an excellent job for us upgrading so much around the house; new lights, dimmers, undercounter lights, adjustments etc. Will use them again.

Pikes....we have used them for everything including panel surge protection, full rewire during a complete kitchen remodel to a single breaker replacement. Efficient and responsive.

Did Vinny do the work for you? I trust him to do a great job.

Your biggest problem is getting any electrician to ever return your call or even answer the phone. Solution I used after two weeks of that routine was to call Mr Sparky of Belleview. Answering call same day. Come out the the day. Job performed the day after that. Price was higher. I am sure, but I was tired of no Answering from every other referral from this site here.
