    As a Real Estate Agent I appreciate being able to refer a professional and reliable electrical contractor to clients and fellow agents. Not only are they on budget, but they are quick to respond and accommodate a deadline and busy schedule. It's relieving to be able to leave my clients in the hands of a company so easy to work with.

    Great guy who gets things done quickly. Thorough, knowledgeable, and honest. Max gave us a reasonable quote of what it could cost, and after he came out and assessed the situation, readjusted and removed some items that were unnecessary. He took time to explain things to us and was so friendly and professional. A great small businesses that you should definitely support.

    We called Max Electric to help with a buggy electrical issue. The electrician showed up exactly on time, 30 minutes after it was scheduled. It was EXTREMELY bad weather that morning and when I called them, they offered to delay the service call for 30 minutes. That showed me that they are flexible and will work with a client under under unusual circumstances.

    The electrician surveyed the situation and while in the attic, he did a mental map of the wiring. He then assessed the problem and solved it with SMARTS, not PARTS! He fixed it, not by throwing parts at the problem but by a systematic diagnosis. The mental map of the wiring layout gave him an indication of what to expect inside the house.
    Repositioning a couple of wires at a wall switch and outlet solved the problem.

    1) On time.
    2) Smarts, not Parts!
    3) Professional, courteous.
    4) Very efficient use of his time.
    5) Cost effective.

    Max Electrical is on my phone for any future needs. Its one of those "I home I never need them, but if I do, they are it."

    I was provided with a clear breakdown of services and estimated costs a couple of weeks before the electricians came out. They arrived on time and were very professional throughout the process. After they were done, they explained what what they did in an easy to understand manner. Best of all, the total cost was below the original quote. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

    Every part of this experience was perfect. From quick communication upon initial outreach, willingness to coordinate and communicate by email, to an extremely easy experience on installation day. The crew were super friendly, clean in their work, and generally pleasant to work with. Will use them again for any and all electrical needs!

    Derin came and installed two 220 V circuits in my garage for electrical vehicle charging. He was on time (actually a bit early), completed the work in less than an hour and a 1/2, completed the work for below his initial estimate (which was already under competing electricians) and conscientiously cleaned up the area. I'd recommend him to anyone that needs electrical work done in their home or small business.

    Darin and his team were amazing!! Top notch service, outstanding quality, and excellent advise on where to place recess lighting. They installed 14 cans and switches in half a day...I won’t hesitate to call him and his team back for additional electric work. Thanks guys!

    My father is home bound and depends on his microwave for easy prep eating. When the outlet went out in the kitchen we needed help quick. The guys from Max Electric were able to get out on a weekend and get it solved quickly. I appreciate their promptness and the price was reasonable. Thank you!

    Contacted Max Electrical through their website and they responded very quickly. They quickly scheduled an appointment for the next day and fixed my light switch for a reasonable price - better than burning down the house!

    Jesse W. at Max electrical is amazing! I had him out to fix a fan (I had already had an electrician from another company come look and he couldn’t fix it). Jesse knew exactly what was wrong and got it fixed quickly. He communicated clearly, explained the issue and I’ll be forever grateful!! I’d definitely use y’all again! Thank you!

    A few of our breakers were tripping randomly and we also wanted a pendant light installed. Max Electric was super quick to reply to my emails and did an excellent job! Professional the whole time and explained what the problem was. Pricing seemed fair and even slightly better than the other quote we got. Thanks!

    They are very responsive and pricing is extremely competitive. They came to fix the issue within 24 hours of my call and were very friendly and respectful electricians came. I can’t recommend them enough.

    Late night last week, only my refrigerator goes out so I check the breaker and sure enough, it's been tripped. I flipped it and after 10-15 mins it kept triggering. I asked the residents in our building if anyone else had this issue and two other tenants replied yes and to call Max. So I did! I needed a pro and I wanted to be confident in who I chose for stuff like this. They came highly recommended and fast. When they arrived, they were so incredibly NICE!!!! Cost wise (because I do my research) excellent!! Now as I leave my review, I can see why everyone loves Max Electric.

    If there was an option for six stars they would get it! Absolutely fantastic service, support, and job well done. At no point did I feel like I was being up sold because Darin listen to my needs and executed them perfectly at a very fair price.

    I highly recommend Max Electric for your next project if you don't want a headache and want to pay exactly what you should.

    The project then acts like they did for me was upgrading panels on a 1982 duplex. Not only do I feel safer knowing that I have a quality product installed on my house now but they did a fantastic job making it look nice as well.

    All the stars for all the service! These guys are awesome. We needed a full update on the electrical system in a newly purchased, older home with aluminum wiring. They were punctual, efficient, accurate in their estimate of both time and cost, and extremely pleasant to work with. We'll most definitely be working with MAX again for any future needs.

    We were soo nervous about the electrical work we were needing done. We had no idea the extent, the cost, time involved, etc etc...just stress. But how happy and delighted we were to have found Max Electric. Darin came out the next morning after contacting him, immediately got to work and pinpointed the exact cause of our issue and resolved it. We couldn't have found a more honest professional to work with. I highly recommend Max Electric for any electrical work you may have.

    I can not say enough positive things about Max Electrical. First of all, they have NEVER been late. Not once! If they say they are on their way, I will guarantee they will arrive when they say will! Yesterday, Darren, my all-time favorite, came to test and fix my outlets and switches. He was able to very quickly assess the issues, rewire, and install all new fixtures faster than you can say "jump down, spin around, pick a bail of cotton!" Darren is extremely professional and thoroughly nice. He also magically erases any traces that he's been here. No dust from drilling holes, no footprints, no nada. I also love the fact that he explains what he is doing, in the simplest of terms, so I actually understand the electrical process. Finally, the prices are unbeatable! The Equation: A+ Service with A+ Trustworthy and Professional Darrens who Show up On time and have the best prices in town = HALLELUJAH!

    I contacted Max Electrical for a quotation for the installation of a generator connection to my houses main panel. They responded in less than one business day with a quotation and lead time on parts. When it came time to install the outlet they arrived in a timely manner, even calling ahead to confirm the time, and let us know they were on the way. The work was completed professionally, on time, and we were billed exactly what we had agreed on through the quotation.

    Amazing service, very professional. Max came into my house and i forgot to put my dog up, but he loved on her to make her feel comfortable. Then got to work on a couple of bad Fuse's. Super quick, and very reliable. I will go to him for all of my issues now, way better than waiting for 3 days for some other company to possibly try and show up. He said he would be there within a few hours and kept me up to date with texts and calls. That's real service right there.

    These guys are amazing! Darin called me back quickly after I left a message. I was desperate for someone to come out the same day for a new water heater install where the plumber was unsure of how safe the aluminum wiring was for the connection. I called at least 5 other electricians, but Max Electrical were the only ones to offer to come out and look at my water heater connection within an hour.

    They evaluated it and said they could do what was needed for a couple hundred, which I was thrilled about because I was already spending so much money on the water heater installation and needed to be able to turn it on. They got the job completed within a few hours, professionally and reasonably while explaining everything to me.

    Darin even swung by my place before the original ETA to talk to the plumber, see what was needed and leave equipment for his crew coming later. I can't recommend them enough! Now we have hot showers again and I am incredibly thankful. Thanks to DJ and Chris, too!
