I wanted to wait a little while before leaving a review, just to be sure I had a reliable experience to review. I had under cabinet lighting put in about 6 weeks ago. A couple of weeks before that, Matt came out and told me pretty much everything they would need to do to get the job completed. He also gave me a tour of where what would need to be done. Shortly after that visit I was sent a quote. When making the appointment, they made clear the difficulty and how long it would likely take to complete. Day of, Matt and AJ made faster work of the wiring with far less wall repair needed (I have plaster and lathe walls) than I expected. And since I was home, they gave me options for how I'd like them to approach each issue they encountered; I always took their advice because it seemed logical. I am super happy with the work Matt and AJ from Helping Hands did for me. I'll call them again.

One of the light switches in our small business (hair salon) jammed out of nowhere. This switch controls half the lights in the salon, so we needed help ASAP. I called Helping Hands early on a Monday morning, and Ader was able to arrive within 90 minutes. He was very nice and replaced the light switches in a timely manner. The price was also very reasonable! Especially for something so last minute.

This is the second time I've used Helping Hands and couldn't be happier! Their communication process is streamlined and transparent, which makes planning for house projects a breeze. Matt W. completed the work on my bathroom exhaust fan and was quick yet thorough. He also did a great job of cleaning up after himself and even greeted my dogs on his way out. :) I'll continue to use and recommend Helping Hands in the future!

We needed to move our dryer outlet and convert the outlet to a 4-pronged 200 amps. When I called them to explain what we needed done, Matt came out ths next morning to give us an estimate. Matt was extremely professional and knowledgeable in what needed to be done. He said he could do it that same day. I did not expect that. We called a different company and received an estimate several days prior to calling Helping Hands Electric. They wouldn't be able to do the work for 2 weeks. They also needed 2 electricians to complete the work. Matt had the work done by himself in about 4 hours. I would absolutely recommend Helping Hands Electric!

I was surprised to find out that installing a Level 2 EV charger in my garage would cost over $3000 (including for the Universal Charger which I purchased online for $600) but I was satisfied that the estimate was fair and the work done by the electrician Jacob Partoll was first rate! Our electric panel was located on the other side of the house from the garage. My wife has a Toyota Rav 4 Prime but my daughter and her husband drive a Tesla so it is nice to be able to charge both vehicles with this Universal Charger. The Waunakee Utility provides a $250 rebate and the US government tax credit of up to $1000. I presume that the EV charger installation will be an additional selling point for our home down the line if we decide to down-size. So, I decided to proceed despite the cost.
