Smoke alarms went off every 20 minutes all thru the night - called Veterans & they fit me in same day & were so thorough in explaining changes to code and updated our alarms.

Can't recommend Sean enough to people. He came to my house to take a look at an exhaust fan in one of my bathrooms and fixed it right on the spot along with two bulbs that weren't working either. He also took the time to clean the motor of the exhaust fan. Afterwards Sean showed me pictures of what he did and the gunk that he cleaned off the exhaust fan. Sean is very knowledgeable at what he does, honest, great communication, friendly, and very professional!!!

Sean was fantastic. We had a couple problems including a broken outdoor outlet and an overloaded circuit. He quickly addressed the problem with the outdoor outlet and fixed it, while explaining things clearly.
He gave advice to me for the overloaded circuit, but did not try to sell me on a huge project, saying it was more money than it was worth. I appreciated his honesty and not trying to make a quick buck. -
Recently had an issue with half of my house not having power and had another electrician come take a look first. I was dissatisfied with the services the first electrician provided and after digging through so many sponsored ads for electricians, I found Veterans Electric. Very thorough with the diagnostics and very detail oriented prior to the work done and power was restored to my household same day. Reasonably well priced and I appreciate how straightforward and upfront Sean (the technician) was with the entire process. I have other minor electrical issues still needing to be addressed at my home but will be calling Sean again in the future. If you're reading this sir, thank you again for the service and thank you for your military service!

Sean worked with our schedule to complete the work we needed done. He also kept me informed of any changes and offered plenty of options. When he arrived, I enjoyed how he thoroughly explained what he was doing and why.
Also, I didn’t realize we were out of code, he addressed it right away and now we are good to go. Aside from having a great name, he is very professional and I am glad that I found a dependable electrician. The previous reviews are accurate and I am happy to add my positive experience as well. -
Sean was very knowledgable, courteous and on time. I highly recommend him! I had a bathroom light switch not working and he fixed it and 2 others that were deteriorated. He checked other switches in the house to ensure they were working properly. The price was well worth his expertise and help.

Sean came by to install/repair an outlet for our new dishwasher. The previous home owner did a DIY setup that was pretty dangerous an Sean fixed it all up so that is was safe and wouldn’t damage our new appliance. He was professional and prompt and verified with me that everything was working properly.

Called about an entire wall of outlets going out. The owner scheduled me for the same day within around three hours! Sean showed up and thoroughly inspected everything and discovered THIRTY YEAR OLD SHODDY INSTALLS! He discovered that these shoddy installs in combination with improper use of an outlet resulted in a small fire in the breaker box, which is what caused the power in the wall to fluctuate so badly!!! Sean promptly fixed it well and safely, all while being extremely upfront about pricing. He asked if I was ok with him continuing after he told me a price, and any time there was another repair that needed to be completed and added to the price. He took the time to explain exactly what he was doing and answered all of our questions. He made suer we understood which switches and outlets did what, and which outlets were safe to plug certain electronic items into. I was very satisfied with the service we received and if I ever need another electrician, Veterans Electric is going to be the place I call. Thank you Veterans Electric! Thank you Sean! They very well may have saved my house, and certainly saved my sanity that day.

Amazing service! We had 3 light fixtures replaced with 3 complex ceiling fan light fixtures (to include ceiling fan box installs) and the service was both time and cost effective. They take care of military families too as they are a veteran-owned business. They are very kind and upfront about the costs and they have affordable set prices and don’t try to run up prices like a lot of bigger electric companies and electricians. I highly recommend them if you have electrical needs and are looking to support a local business.

Came quickly and was able to easily diagnose and help solve my issues with some older wiring not being redone correctly by the previous homeowners.

This company is the best in the business. Attentive. Knowledgable. Doesn’t try to scam you (we had that happen) they are straight to the point with a great attitude. Fixed the electrical panel issue we were having. The quality of work and attention to detail was more than I could have hoped for. I can’t recommend them or thank them enough.

I have a ceiling fan now! I purchased new home and my living room had exposed electrical wire. It was ugly.. so I called Veterans Electric to install a new fan and put the electrical wire behind the wall. They are very professional and great customer service! 10% military discount is really nice.. We ran into problems with the fan that I ordered from Amazon. It was fan problem. They worked so hard with that fan. Manufacture problems i had to reschedule but it's done! I have a great working ceiling fan now. I definitely call them again with my next project. Picture= new ceiling fan with no exposed wire/ old ceiling fan with exposed electrical wire

The owner Asked pertinent questions about our electrical problem and upon arrival did some more diagnosis which resulted in a quick find of the fault and a quick resolution to the power loss. I would highly recommend Veterans electric. The owner is up front about costs and reasons. Timely, competent and trustworthy.

Needed a pretty simple, as it turned out, electrical repair. They were very clear about how they would approach the job and how they would charge. He took one look, could tell what the likely problem was and fixed it right up. I like the flat rate pricing. I knew going in exactly what it was going to cost. Very honest and efficient.
-
They were able to come out on short notice on a weekend and diagnose my issue. Sean was very professional and clearly communicated at every step. I would definitely use them again.
-
Sean was on time, clean, professional, personable and fair. Fixed our electrical issue quick, completely transparent informing us of everything he had done. Also did work for my brother in the past who recommended us to him

Knowles family here! Fourth time using Veteran’s Electric, for a different service. Called for emergency service, and he was able to come out within a couple of hours. Have been using them for the past five years at least and still the most honest electrician around. Thankfully saved our home with a wire that needed to be replaced that was completely burnt out. Sean and his wife provide trusted service with kindness and hospitality while getting real quality work done with honest prices. Thank you again! Will always use.

Shawn from Veteran Electric was absolutely outstanding. He was kind, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. He came out quickly, diagnosed the issue right away, and fixed the problem just as fast. I truly appreciated how educational he was throughout the process — he explained everything in a way that made me feel informed and confident.
I highly recommend Shawn and Veteran Electric to anyone needing reliable, professional service. Five stars all the way! -
Professional, competent, with great service!
