Default Need Electrician Referral since Alan Byer Retired!

I just found out that Alan retired 7 months ago. Got his name from the great reviews here on TOTV. So, who is the new Alan? Need to add an outdoor GFI receptacle for fountain pump and a few low voltage outdoor lights. Who would you recommend for a small project like this? Had a couple of quotes from electrical contractors and they seem very high. Looking for a realistic and fair quote.

Integrity Electrical Service 352-307-6335. Had him put in a GFI receptable. Very fair price, professional, polite and good work.

Lenhart Electrical 352-748-5818 has done good work for us a couple of times.

I took the advice and called Lenhart and got a quote. to get another quote I looked at who did the original wiring of the house and called them! R&A came the same day quoted an outdoor outlet, rewired 2 kitchen lights over the island to a separate dimmer and added as additional outlet for above cabinet LED lights. The price they quoted was so reasonable I said yes and 3 days latter the work was done in 3 hours. They also hung the 2 pendants over the island. I couldn't of bought the materials for the price they charged to do it all.
I will recommend R&A to anyone!

I recommend Don Cunningham 352.391.2564. He is a handyman that works at reasonable prices, and I believe he is a master electrician by trade, but don't quote me. .
