Customer Reviews

Mike Kerr

Shift was wonderful to work with and Matt, the assigned electrician, was outstanding - from the second Matt showed up, I knew we were in good hands. We had to install an outlet in our fireplace for a gas insert and Matt knew exactly what was required. The installation was efficient and is barely noticeable (given we had to pull a new wire from our breaker to the fireplace). Would absolutely use Shift again.

Shift Electric are by far the best electricians we’ve worked with. They installed the electric for our outdoor sauna and reworked our electrical panel to make room for the extra output required for the sauna. We loved working with them because they are (1) expert electricians, (2) friendly and easy to communicate with, (3) extremely reliable with scheduling, (4) they offer competitive pricing, (5) they get the job done quickly and right. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I had a great experience with Shift and would recommend them to anyone! Matt was our service professional and Matt arrived on time and shared information about what he was noticing while servicing our light fixture, and was a pleasure to chat with too! They were able to get us scheduled pretty quickly and solved a problem that was way above the DIY skill level I have!

We had a very positive experience with Shift Electric Co today, and while setting things up. Their website was easy to navigate. They responded promptly to our initial inquiry, providing options for service dates and time. They provided a reasonable cost for the service needed. Matt, the electrician who worked on our house, was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, on-time, answered all of our questions, got to the heart of the electrical issues swiftly , and completed the job swiftly. We will definitely seek out Shift Electrical Co. services in the future if there ever is a need.

For a first time home owner, I was intimated by the electrical updates my older home required and the process it would entail to hire out for the repairs. Shift Electric Co. made this process easy. I communicated with Davis, who answered all of my questions and provided me with a competitive quote. Matt arrived for the service on time. He gave me updates during the repairs and informed me of his ongoing progress. He was skilled and knowledgeable. Davis followed up with me at the end of the project. Since Matt completed the job sooner than expected, I was charged less than the given quote. I appreciate Shift for their integrity, quality of work, and communication. For future updates and repairs, I would hire them again.
