Customer Reviews
Patricia Jett
David and Donte did an excellent job of hanging a chandelier on a 18 foot ceiling and putting in 20 foot ceiling lights. It was done efficiently and in a timely manner, did the whole job with a 16 foot ladder. We were expecting to have to use scaffolding, but they were able to do it on the ladder thus saving us some money. Thank you, Chesapeake Electric, David and Donte
Will Weill
David came out for an emergency call due to water behind my breaker box. He was efficient, effective and (most importantly) honest. Not only did he diagnose the problem, he offered realistic solutions to the point that if I ever need another electrical surgeon to visit my abode to keep the bolts of Zeus harnessed, I will settle for no one less than David to take on Goliath.
Jan
Chesapeake Electric responded quickly to our request to come out and assess some electrical issues we were having in our home. During the assessment, Ethan discovered two of our outlets had seriously malfunctioned which could have caused an eventual house fire. By changing those outlets immediately, he helped to avoid a potential disaster. We were very pleased with all the work performed by Chesapeake Electrical. William, Stephen, Dantè, and Alex were able to replace all of the outlets and switches, install surge protectors, install a Tesla wall charger, and more. They were very friendly and professional and provided detailed explanations for everything they were doing. We are very thankful for all of the work they did.
