I had to get an electrical box installed for my vanity light since I didn’t install it to code, and Colin’s employee (I forgot his name because I’m horrible with names) did the job quickly and professionally. He also updated our humidity sensor for our fan. Furthermore, he was able to provide great advice for future electrical work we wanted to get done. Will definitely call again for future work.

I can't express how appreciative I am for having Colin from CNA Electric oversee the electrical installation for my new build. From the very beginning he exuded professionalism and knowledge. Being an interior designer, I had many requests and details I needed accomplished and Colin was there with confidence and patience to see them through. I was continually surprised by his ethical standards and his kindness throughout the project. My family is extremely impressed and thrilled that he was able to correct the weak data signals for gaming and movie watching. What can I say....Colin just works magic! Not only is his work top notch, but he is just the kind of tradesman you know you can rely on and trust. My entire family commented on how nice this guy was and I will definitely be keeping him in my back pocket incase my clients need a great electrician. Thanks abundantly for all your hard work Colin.
