I had my first experience with Mel Carr Electric today although even the staff setting up the appointment was knowledgeable and got me an appt in one day.
The technician arrived and determined the problem and had a few solutions for me to choose from He then installed new light fixture and helped fix a few hot wires in the process.
Courteous and friendly and very helpful. Their flat rate was affordable. I will keep them in mind for further work.
Great service from Gary and Zach. They quickly diagnosed and fixed all of my electrical issues. Thank you!

Jason C serviced my attic fan. He fit my call in the business day before it was scheduled, at my request. He is highly skilled, professional and pleasant to work with. I am confident that the job was done correctly. Having Jason C's business card on my refrigerator takes some of the stress out of being a homeowner. I know that if something goes wrong electrically ( or if I want to upgrade anything) help is just a phone call away.
Dan from Mel Carr electric just left after remedying several issues re my pool. Dan was excellent! He was professional, on time and most important, knowledgable. He explained in detail every step he took and why. This was just the opposite of the experience I had with another company several years ago. Highly recommended.

I recently had a problem with a series of electrical outlets that were not working. I called Mel Carr Electric and I had an electrical technician at my home in less than 24 hours. When Jason C. arrived he immediately put protective booties over his work shoes to protect my floors from being stained or damaged. I explained the problem and he immediately started trouble shoot the problem. In a very short time he located the problem in an outlet that had loose wires and was causing other outlets to have operational problems. He replaced the defective outlet and my problem was fixed. All this took about a half hour. Jason C. was very polite and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this company if you have electrical problems.
Jason went above and beyond to find and fix our electrical problem. We recommend him in expertise, professionalism and his ethics. We called Mel Carr Electric in the AM. Jason arrived that afternoon and pursued the electrical problem until it was found and fixed. This was our first experience with the company and we will not hesitate to recommend and use them again.

They took time to explain what had happened with the dimmer switch and then replaced it with a new one. They also informed me about using the best bulbs for our chandeliers and other very helpful ideas. I recommend them for the highest rating.

Dan A and Gary C performed work at my home over the course of two days. They were efficient, neat, and professional. All work was explained to me before it happened. If I need electrical work in the future I will call Mel Carr Electric.

We have used this company a few times, always happy with their service. Dan A arrived at the scheduled time and completed the job in good time. Very professional. Would definitely recommend Mel Carr Electric.
The guys did such a great job installing lights in our house. It was not a simple, straightforward job, but they were very professional and finished the job in a timely fashion. We are very pleased. Thank you, Mel Carr Electric!

Dave B is always terrific. He explains what the problem or issue is and gives me choices to fix what needs to be done to keep my home safe and sound. Generally, my experience with the company has been great, very friendly and polite and responsive for an emergency situation.
