    Wow! Am so lucky to find and support honest, quality, local business. I called these guys and they came out to help replace a faulty GFI circuit right away, fortunately dame day. Ron was very helpful and excellent customer service very knowledgable, and easy to talk too. He did not try to sell me or convince me to do a bunch of other repairs. Hands down this is for sure my go-to for electrical work/repairs.

    I was trying to find them again today after more than six years since I last used them. I still remember how happy I was with their services. I used them to repair a sign at my restaurant back then and they came in fixed it and left without even getting paid because they did business the old fashion way. I was not there when they arrived and they were done before I did. I went at their office to pay and thank them personally. I still remember the comfortable feeling you get when you are a part of their community and don’t get exploited for more money,

    We have done remodeling in our basement last fall and upstairs this spring in our house that was built in 1960. C&R Electric checked all outlets and upgraded to 3-prong and GFI where needed. They also wired in additional outlets in the basement and a new outlet in the kitchen for a microwave above the oven. They also fixed a couple of outlets that were damaged or installed incorrectly. They also installed a junction box for the new cooktop, as well as new ceiling light fixtures and a bathroom fan/light. They were always on time, very professional, worked efficiently, and cleaned up after themselves. We would definitely call them again if we need future electrical work.

    This company was great to work with! They showed up on time and gave me a fair estimate. When I went to schedule the work they said they were booked solid for several months but because my job was small they could fit me sooner. Later that same day, they had an opening and completed my minor job in under 1 hour. Excellent service.

    I had four outlets stop working and the circuit breaker hadn't tripped. I called for help and Brad was at our home within about 2 hours. The problem was difficult to find but he did find it fixed it and the repair cost was more than reasonable. He was great to work with and couldn't have been more professional. I'd give him 6 stars if I could.

    Great experience with C&R Electric. I attempted to fix and electrical issue and ended up making the situation much worse. After a night with no power and an upset fiance, Brad was able to come the next morning, an hour after calling, and fix the problem. I had called several other electricians (some even claiming to be available 24 hours/day) and the work was complete before I gotten a return call from anyone else. The work was efficient and economical. Would highly recommend to anyone and will use myself in the future.

    Having selected a sub-par contractor for a small room remodel in my new home, I find myself in the frequent role of project manager. One of the framers told me yesterday at 4:30pm that work would have to stop until an electrician moves a few live wires. Fair enough, but lack of foresight on their part creates a crisis for me to deal with. I called numerous companies at close of business and found little sympathy or willingness to problem solve, until I called C&R. Todd took on the problem like it was his own and had someone to my house within the hour. It took one hour for him to complete the re-route and the framers are proceeding this morning unimpeded. I'm very grateful for Todd's responsiveness and C&R's professionalism. They have earned my future business, my referrals, and this review. Thanks guys, I appreciate you.

    Absolutely the best! We used them to re-wire a 1950s house that was all knob and tube. We bid the job with multiple contractors and C&R was the best for the job on paper, and definitely showed why they were the best when finished. Todd in the office and Wayne on the job site really went above and beyond to make sure every detail was addressed. With sections of wall and ceiling requiring removal to get the rewire done, they really finished the job with surgical precision and very little wall/ceiling removal. Going into this with no idea what to expect, C&R made this entire process painless and left us with a freshly re-wired home that is safe to sleep in and ready to use!

    I reached out to C&R to get an estimate for installing a new circuit in my home and Todd took the time to discuss the issues I was having and suggest some solutions rather than rush to get me to spend thousands of dollars on a job I may not need. Time will tell whether it can be avoided, but I will certainly use C&R for my electrical needs going forward. Thank you for being honest and helpful Todd.

    Very nice people, definitely profit focused.
    I had a water heater malfunction, when I tried to reset the breaker i saw sparks in the panel, so I asked C & R to check it out. I asked on the phone if there were any diagnostic fees, I was told no, just $80/30min, that should have been the first flag but I missed it given the great reviews and that I try to support small local companies.
    The technician came, was very nice, went "above and beyond", now I wonder if it was just to bill me extra time. Spend 2 hours disassembling and reassembling shelves and doors to "access" the inside of the panel and the water heater, even though they were accessible, but fine "if you think it's necessary" which he assured me it was. He then changed out a breaker "just in case", but happened to not have the part and had to drive back to his shop to get it (of course while billing for time). Once the breaker changed, the problem persisted, he concluded "i guess it's not the breaker, but i'll leave the new one in anyways" and of course i was billed for that. The person did not seem very knowledgeable, since it took me checking in on him after 1h, and him saying everything looks fine but when i pointed out the water heater connection is now smoking, he finally answered "oh! I guess the issue if your water heater" and proceeded to spend the rest of the time putting back the door he had taken down.
    $480 dollars later, including a, $85 transport fee which was never announced, a breaker fee which I did not need, damaged paint from the tech, and a concluding statement of "call a plumber". I cannot warn enough against companies charging by the hour and especially this company. It's simply too bad that one cannot rely on a small local company to provide good and honest work. Expensive lesson learned.

    Wayne and his apprentice were great! They were early and got me in before an appointment I had. They helped troubleshoot a tripped breaker and had a replacement ready and made sure everything was working well before they left. They also gave me a tutorial on how to safely DIY next time with my fuse box, dos and don'ts. He was so friendly to me and kind to my protective little dog. Todd who took my call earlier in the week was also so friendly and kind to me, taking the time to listen to my problem, helping me troubleshoot the likely issue with the breaker, and getting all the information from me to do the job quickly and well. They were also the most reasonable bid, saving me money than using Mirskey or Beacon. Save your money and hire C and R electricians. You will be happy with the work done and to have hired the most friendly humans.

    Such a great company - we highly recommend them. They came out to our home the same day we called and charged us a fair price. Beacon Plumbing quoted 2X as much for the same job.
    C & R saved us so much money AND they are so nice to work with. They finished the job quickly and made sure everything was clean when they left. We are fortunate to have them in Burien.

    Wow, truly impressed with their fast, friendly and thorough service! Just moved into an older home and noticed power out in garage and all bathroom outlets this morning. Ron came out within about 10 min and we found a single GFCI in MBa that tripped for all outlets. He quickly installed a new outlet for me in the garage on its own circuit so I could operate a minimum number of appliances and be back in business! Couldn’t have been more impressed and will be calling again soon to get the major electrical upgrade projects needed in our home! Highly recommend!

    I can highly recommend C&R! The electrician was exceptionally patient and kind while working with my elderly parents, who required several last-minute changes to the project. They handled every request with professionalism and a warm, accommodating attitude, ensuring my parents felt heard and comfortable throughout the process. The work was completed efficiently and to a high standard, with clear communication at every step. Thank you for making a potentially stressful experience so smooth and pleasant.

    We went with C&R Electric after a recommendation from our realtor. We had C&R complete an electric panel upgrade and EV charger install. The whole process went very smooth. The electricians were friendly, quick, and left our home very clean. The service panel looked great and the EV charger has been operating without any issues. They charged a fair price and the service was great! Highly recommend and will hire again for future electrical work (if needed).
