Best in

Attentive, knowledgable, and easy to work with. They do excellent, detailed work and seem honest & straightforward. I appreciate their responsiveness, attention to detail, that they clean up after jobs, and ease in scheduling. Definitely recommend. Will work with them again.

I highly recommend Art Mauney for anyone who wants an honest, knowledgeable and very efficient contractor. Several years ago the panel box shorted out on the side of our house due to water leaking in the box. My wife met him accidentally in Home Depot and he came over and installed a new one within two hours, AND IN A BAD LIGHTNING STORM!

Last week I called him and he came today and installed a panel box in our basement with very short notice even though he was very busy. If you need a good electrician at a fair and honest cost, he is your man.

Thanks again Art!

I called Southern Electric of the Carolinas (in Rock Hill) because I had a puzzling intermittent flickering lights problem on multiple circuits (but not all of them).  The owner, Tommy Palmer, came to check it out to provide an estimate.  He was able to quickly trouble-shoot and diagnose the problem.  He suspected a bad connection inside my electric meter box.  He immediately called the city electric company to open the meter box.  There was, in fact, a bad connection.  He immediately got a permit from the city to work on the meter and sent a crew (Ron & LJ) to work on it.  They had to coordinate their work with the city electric company to disconnect my electric service at the street, have the city inspector approve the repair, and then have the electric service turned back on.  They took care of all of the logistics and got the job done amazingly fast.  While all this was happening, they also did another minor job for me at the same time.  The bill for their work was quite reasonable.

We just moved into our new house and found that one of our light switches was wiggly and we had an issue with our ceiling fan. I called GB Electrical and Jay came out soon afterwards. He replaced my wonky light switch and fixed my fan problem without issue. Such a nice guy and such a great job.

Happy with the result, great service, and price.

Buyer Beware - This is the most unprofessional electrical providers period.  Josh installed two Ethernet lines at my property along with multiple other electrical services. One of my Ethernet lines are no longer working after about a month. I contacted them to repair the lines. Josh stated he would come on two different occasions.  He failed to show up both times without calling. I then talked to Jeff, I believe the Owner of the Company, he apologized for Josh and stated he would come out the next day himself to fix the issue. Guess what he doesn't show up or call either! I called back yesterday and spoke to Josh and he stated he would call me back but as you guessed failed to call back again.  Now they won't answer the phone. I felt compelled to leave this review because I only contacted this Company after reading the reviews on here. Buyer Beware they do not stand by the work.

Updated my original 1 Star review. Owner sent over a low voltage electrician to fix the issues. It has now been resolved. Thank you.

I've used Putnam for probably 10 years now and they have always done a great job. Always professional, do quality work and pricing is fair. The few times that the problem wasn't handled on the first visit they came back when I called and took care of any remaining issues. A real person answers the phone 24/7 and they have service techs on call over the weekend. Bottom line.....great company. I tell everyone to call them when they need HVAC work done.

Outstanding! Quick to get onsite, efficient once here, and very personable. Great guys that I would recommend to anyone.

I'm giving Lake Norman Electric 2 stars mainly because of their appraiser, Rob. I initially called the company to install an outlet over my fireplace so we could hang a TV there. They arrived the same week, were polite and did a great job. The two electricians that were in our home were very nice, professional, and answered all of my questions. While they were here, I mentioned that I would like to have lighting in my backyard. I'm planning a very large party in a few months and need to have some lighting set up. They informed me to get in touch with Rob, and he would come out and provide an estimate. I went back and forth with the office for two weeks waiting for Rob to get back to me. All the office could tell me was that Rob made his own schedule and they would pass on my message.  Finally, he did call on a Friday, and stated he would send me a text message on Monday to let me know exactly when he could stop by. Two weeks later and I am still waiting on that text.
If you need something simple done, like the outlet, their electricians were great. It was a bit expensive (Around $250 for a simple wall outlet), but it was very convenient to pay the bill online and the office staff uses text messaging which made communication very easy.  If you need a quote for something, I would suggest moving on to another company. You'll never hear from Rob.

I called to get help with two or three minor problems that would only require an hour or less. The man I spoke to obviously didn't want the job. So, after he quoted me $175 an hour labor, I obviously backed out. I was surprised that his attitude conveyed a lack of concern for even considering my request.

was over 2 hours late and not even a phone call to let me know after i rushed home to meet them.

I had 5 new fan/light locations installed in my home and 1 pendant light in kitchen that needed a j-box installed from existing hardwire fixture.  I received great service from ARC Electric and would recommend to anyone looking for an electrician.  They showed up promptly around 8am as it was an all-day job.  Crew was great (1 project manager and 2 technicians).  They all had a clean appearance and professional.  Cleaned up all messes from the new light/fan additions and made sure I was aware of any enhancements / minimal changes that had to be done with work order.  The wall punch outs for electrical access were minimal and put back in place were I can easily patch walls and repaint.  Would definitely use their services again for any future electrical needs.

The plus - good telephone answering service, prompt dispatch, and yes - they were on time.  For simple things they might be the right choice.  Note there is a $27 trip charge (PLUS TAX)

The negative - maybe was just bad luck in who they sent but the electrician was not interested in problem solving - left me with a big repair issue due to a cut line in the yard and no workaround - said I would need to install another meter!  Another electrician came and was able to figure out a way to run a new line.  So the problem could have been solved by On Time IF their electrician had taken a moment to think about helping instead of moving on to something else.  

So again, if your problem is simple - they might be the right choice

Cory and his crew is amazing!  His level of customer service is A++!  I have used him and his company for 2 years and have done numerous jobs with him and his crew.  The prices and quality of work are perfect!

I'm not only upset about this situation, but I'm disappointed. I have an older home and have used Polk Electric a couple of times to fix electric issues I've had. I had them install some outdoor lights for me (that haven't worked since day 1 and still do not) and smoke detectors. I have called about the lights at least twice and each time was told someone would fix them and it never happened. I didn't sweat it though because the people here are really nice. They're a family owned company and I know things get busy, but I'm disappointed in the situation that I feel they have put me in.
When I had the installations done I told the worker, Kirby, that I wanted a rewire. It's an old home. I thought it might be a good idea. He assured me that it wasn't needed. Everything is working fine, he told me. He looked at my electric panels and looked at the outlets and I trusted his expert opinion. Over the summer I had what I thought to be an HVAC issue that turned out to be electrical. Mr. Pope came out and he and the hvac person figured out the issue and he did a temporary fix. He told me he had to order the correct part and the next day someone would be out to replace it and they would fix the lights. That never happened. This week I had the same issue again and called Polk Electric to come out. I spoke with them by phone twice and in person. No one showed up.
So last night I called another company. What they showed me was upsetting. The panel box was burned and unusable. It was a fire hazard. I am thankful that my home is still intact.
I trusted this company to fix my home, not put me in a position where I could lose it. Very kind people, but poor workmanship. While I won't use them again I do hope that they correct these practices. They have the customer service portion of business going strong, but it stops there.

UPDATE: Since posting this review the company has apologized for their actions and they fixed the outdoor lights.

I've used Gibson's Electrical a few times recently, originally at the recommendation of my real estate agent. They did a fantastic job with a laundry list of updates to the home I'm selling, including troubleshooting some nonsensical light switches, fixture installation, and a variety of other fixes. I also received above-and-beyond after-hours assistance when I had a mysterious, high-pitched noise coming from inside my house. The property management company was of no help, but Gibson's helped me try to solve the problem by phone and then showed up really quickly when that didn't work to make sure the issue was resolved so I could sleep in the house that night. Highly highly recommend!

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST COMPANY!!!!  MAJOR SCAM! STAY AWAY!!!! We were told we would have a technician come out for $149 to take down our ceiling fan and replace it with a metal chandelier. When the technican came late he didn't even have a ladder. He said the $149 fee was just to get their estimate. Their estimate for $149?????  They gave three RIDICULOUS options. Option One: $3537.00
Option Two: $1881.00
Option Three: $1435.00

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? TO HANG A CHANDELIER?

See attachment for paperwork given by technician...

Obviously we didn't pay and told the guy to get out. What a scam!!!!

When I called to get a refund I was jerked around and sent from one person to another. One month later and they keep talking in circles and just say they're sorry if i don't like their prices. Ha! Who would? I feel so foolish to have not read reviews before calling this company. I jsut found one sounding very similar to ours, except we recieved two additional crazy options that they even changed their paperwork and said I was only given on option - the cheapest one. When I sent my original paperwork with their options and one of their employees response to it, I then received another run around.

Stay away! because this is company shouldn't exist!

Wish I would have read this before I called:
Review from 2022 - They are running one helluva scam for sure! Called to get a chandelier installed. I gave them all the information they needed. Measurements, wright, access, etc. Was told it would be installed when they came out. I told them they would need three people. OK, no problem I was told. I called day before to ENSURE it was going to be installed.  Yes, ABSOLUTELY.
Prepared the area and waited. I had an anytime appt. as it was the cheapest. $59, other prices went up in $10 increments from there. Someone shows up in the AM. Great! ...shows up, booties, etc.....walks into my home, looks at the chandelier, wanders through my house to the kitchen table, sits down, writes a number on a form and pushes it toward me. FIFTEEN HUNDRED DOLLARS !!!!!
Where did he get that figure when he never measured a thing! Never touched it! And where are the workers?
Oh! They only do estimates first time out he said!
He took that figure from a BOOK based on info I gave them on the phone!!!
I told him I was told they were going to install it! I had called to n.v ake sure!  Yeah? Well, no!
Scam and theft is what I call it. That check was cashed same day!
I told them I want my money back. How dare they! Do not use these scammers . Beware if you do. You've been warned! I had it installed today for $250
