Current Electric's customer service was great. They were able to get someone out next day, whereas other companies wouldnt return my call or took days to respond. Aaron was wonderful! He called to let me know when he would arrive. He was very thorough, answered any questions I had, and provided relevant information about potential future upgrades we may be interested in. The outlet install was done well and quickly. Our home was respected and the space was left clean. The price was fair, especially considering the speed and service.

We are pleased with the service we received from Current Electric. We received an initial proposal on a large project updating electrical on an early 1900s home. Wade carefully walked through & came up with a detailed estimate. Current could coordinate to do the major messy work while we were out of town. We had already built a level of trust & the crew led by Drake was fantastic. Really enjoyed working with Drake. The office communicated well each day they would be scheduled at the property. Payment was easy. No surprises on the billing. Everything clearly spelled out. No extra charge for using a credit card. We would recommend Current Electric. Hope the management knows they've got a good team there with their crew! Thank you for helping us upgrade the electrical to a safe system. We have more work to do so we'll be calling again! Note - excellent communication at all levels all along the way! So important!

Current Electric installed a Generac whole house generator in our home. Brian Fisher, our salesman, and the generator installation crew led by Chris Winters were terrific! They were completely professional and very skilled. They all did an excellent job! Our project coordinator, Christine, did an outstanding job. Although she is a relatively new employee, Christine went the extra mile to make the final segments of the project go very smoothly. We are very happy with the work Current Electric did for us and we recommend them highly.

2 years ago I had a electrical panel fully replaced by roman electric they did a quality job and price was competitive. I gave them a call and had them quote me for the job of installing a backup plug for a mobile generator. They quoted me an astronomical price of 2500 dollars you beat their quote by half and what I expected the job to actually be worth the price to have done for. Your Sales rep was fine he was pleasant. I knew what I was willing to pay and came in just under what I thought it was worth. The scheduling team was just as pleasant and easy to do conduct business with. I was not home while the install was being conducted. However my wife was, she had zero complaints. The work area was left as it was found. The install outside of the home was the same. The video of showing how to operate the switch was very easy to understand. Thank you for that as well. Roman electric lost my business. I will call you first if any further needs are required. Please don't end up like roman electric and offer "memberships". And just do good honest work the way I had dealt with you and you'll gain more than a 1 off customer. Thank you.

I paneling my garage interior and needed some conduit and wiring rerouted. In addition, several 120V outlets were installed and light switch functions modified. Brody came up with some great ideas on making these changes and the execution was perfect. All of the conduit that interfered with attaching paneling to studs was removed making my job much easier.
