Reliable Electric was amazing. They installed an outdoor outlet. They hand dug the strip that would house the pipe... from the box to new outlit. They were careful not to disturb any other wires, pipes, etc. they put the grass back so you couldn’t even tell it was dug. They were professional, cordial and efficient!read more

They had to do more than restore power - it was a bad wire from our detached garage building (containing 8 people's... garages) in my townhouse neighborhood We couldn't get our cars out yesterday and Duke determined the problem needed an electrician to repair. Michael Blair and Emily Amburgey went above and beyond. Even before they began to work on the problem they determined they could give my neighbor and I enough power so we could open our garage doors with our remotes (the manual release wouldn't work either). and get our cars out right away. They were so nice and in my mind - saved the day!read more

I recently called for a potential emergency after hour repair. Cody, the electrician on call, was very professional,... knowledgeable, and helpful. I was calling mainly to see if the problem could wait until the morning (it also involves Duke electric). We agreed mutually that tomorrow would work, but he was prepared to come after hours if we desired. I'm looking forward to working with them tomorrow and will update this review later with work done. After talking to 4 people at Duke, Cody salvaged my night and sanity. 👍read more

Paul and Justin upgraded our 100 amp service to a 200 amp moving the meter outside and installed a receptacle for a... back generator outside along with the circuitry. The job they did was perfect and beautiful. They really cleaned up the appearance and I could not be happier! The whole process with Reliable was professional from scheduling, sales (Ryan), and service (Paul and Justin)! Thank you so much. Happy Customer!read more

I scheduled Reliable Electric for multiple electric projects in one visit. Paul and Justin arrived on time, we... discussed the projects, and they went straight to work, checking off each project properly in a timely fashion with attention to detail, They went the extra mile to make some adjustments so that installations looked perfect. They also corrected some known problems from past workers, making the house safer again. I highly recommend Reliable Electric and the team of Paul & Justin and I have already scheduled them for my next electric project.read more

I am new to the area. We needed to remodel a room by inactivating wires and removing outlets. We needed to get ceiling... fan boxes and switches installed. Reliable Electric was great! I was extra impressed with Paul who came the second appointment. He was exceptional! I could tell he knew exactly what to do, was diligent, and worked quickly. He even gave advice on a couple issues we wanted to tackle ourselves. I truly feel like he had our best interests in mind! I recommend Reliable Electric and a special thanks to Paul.read more

Reliable Electric is amazing! True to name, they got the job done in record time, were very polite and did a fantastic... job. Cody and Jordan were awesome! Really took the extra time at the end to make sure my ring device was all set before they left and were so sweet. Now with good work may come a little wait, when I called in they had a 2 week lead time for the install need I had with getting a Ring device setup and power running to it. More than worth the wait I promise you! I know it's been done correctly, they answered all questions and explained what they planned to do and got it done so fast. Will definitely use Reliable Electric again for sure.read more

There was an amazing team of electricians who came out to my house from Reliable Electric. Jordon, Jeramy, Cody, Paul... and Raul were very professional and friendly. They answered several of my questions and gave me advice as to what I needed to meet my needs. They were very knowledgeable about the electrical codes and the old wiring in my house built in 1961. They even joked with my kids and were pleasant to be around. I have used them for multiple jobs and highly recommend them! Thanks guys for a job well done!read more

Jordan was very courteous, and professional. When something extra needed to be done he called to inform me and ask if... it was acceptable to perform the added work. Out of respect he let me know that the weather may delay him a little and it was very much appreciated. Thanks Jordan M! At the end a couple others came to test everything out and they were also very professional. I also want to say that Brandi was professional and kept me informed prior to my scheduled appointment--also giving me a status update on a request for an estimate. Thanks RELIABLE--Based on what I've experienced so far--it looks like things are working as planned and I would recommend that others give you a try.read more
