What customers say

Great Communication, showed they care about the project.

This company gives above and beyond service every time. I coordinate and schedule multiple contractors for jobs and have found that Island Electric is one of the easiest to work with. They are consistent, caring and stand behind their work. They show up when they say they will and they explain things well when i have needed guidance. I am happy to give them five stars :)
