Reviews

What customers say

Professionalism is a recurring point of praise. A panel upgrade with a Generlink was described as stress-free, while a home-rewiring customer praised on-time work that minimized wall and ceiling damage. An earlier customer reported that two outdoor lights had been improperly installed and said follow-up calls and emails went unanswered.

I just had my electrical panel upgraded with a Generlink installed. The crew were very professional and easy going making for a stress free day. I’m so glad I chose Benoit!

Mike Spearman

Haley Parsons

I couldn't be happier with the rewiring work done in my home. The team was professional, dependable, and incredibly considerate throughout the process. They minimized damage to my walls and ceilings, completed the job on time, and made a stressful situation much easier to handle. Thanks to their hard work, my home is now safer, and I have peace of mind. Kudos to Jeremy and his co-worker for doing such an excellent job!

Hired Benoit to install outdoor light fixtures. After receiving an outrageous bill I never used them again. Then recently a contractor removed 2 of these lights to repair a wall and discovered they were not installed properly or even to code! No electrical box and not grounded. I had another electrician I've used since them to come and properly install these lights. I emailed Benoit to inform them of their error but never received a reply! Called to follow up and still no reply. So I opened a BBB file against them and they still refused to refund me for work I was charged for but was not even completed. Very unprofessional! Take no accountability for illegal work they completed. I will be contacting local inspectors next to inform them of these issues.

Hi! Thankfully, hurricane Fiona is gone and power is back. Yay. Now that this is behind us, something to think about! We will have severe storms in the future. Power will go out again. So why not plan for this? Get a large generator, and have a proper wired connection to your home. This is safer for you, and for lineman. Properly wired generators can stop back feeding power into the mains and hurting lineman who are working in to bring power back. We have a Generac 7500. That’s 7500 watts. It has a 220v connection and plugs into an electrician installed plug on the outside of your home. That will power all the lights and outlets in your home, fridges, freezer, microwave, TVs, internet, game consoles, fans, air exchanger, coffee maker, kettles, slow cooker ….. No electric heat. But it will also provide power for propane appliances. We have a propane stove for the cold season. We used Benoit Electric, they are a local company, and Generac certified. They work on other makes as well. They installed two whole house surge suppressors to clean / smooth out generator power and regular power too! Very professional, did a great job. Very reasonable cost. It’s a great thing to do. Way more comfortable to watch TV, surf the net, while you enjoy a hot meal and a tea during a storm and it’s aftermath. Oh, and get a dual fuel generator. Can’t get gasoline, attach your BBQ tank to it. Propane is cleaner fuel too!
