Charles Lewis

Capital Electric did the electric work on a new pole building that I had constructed on my property. The work included running a new service to the building and all of the interior and exterior wiring. I found Elliot to be easy to work with and very knowledgeable about his trade. Quality of work is top notch. Would highly recommend.

I had door openers installed in my shop a few weeks ago - and forgot all about needing power up at the ceiling. I looked for a local electrician and ran across Capital Electric. Glad I found him. He came out and gave me a free estimate, we talked about the needs and how things could be tied into the existing circuits which are all in conduit up high on a 15 foot ceiling. He arrived exactly when he said, got right to work. He made the install of those opener outlets look like it had all been planned from when the shop was first built. No mess to clean up, he tied cords up as needed. A perfectly neat and proper installation. Could not have been easy with that network of conduits and circuits I have in the shop. I would easily hire him again.

We just had our shed wired by Capital Electric. Elliott was very professional, friendly and always on time. My husband and I are very happy with the job he did. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Randy Cech

Very professional, excellent service, and very responsive. He kept me posted on his arrival time. He recommended a more expensive fix that would have definitely fixed the problem, but suggested a cheaper solution that he felt would work and last, and then gave me the option on which route I wanted to go. Appreciated the honesty, knowing that the big electrical companies would have just opted for the more expensive fix. I would definitely recommend Capitol Electric if you want a honest and fair electrician. Thank You for exceeding my expectations.

Elliot listened carefully to what we wanted to happen in our basement finishing project and made helpful suggestions. Agreed on a price and got right to work. He definitely is a guy who takes pride in doing things the right way and it shows in his work. He was a pleasure to work with and I will/have recommended him to anyone needing an electrical project done.
