Customer Reviews

Benjamin Phillips

Had an issue in my home where I wasn't getting any power to the bedroom and bathroom. A different contractor was scheduled to come look at it but got stuck in the snow so I had to look for an alternative. Thankfully I stumbled on MelFoster. I gave them a call in the afternoon and within an hour on the same day I had an electrician in my home diagnosing the problem, and once the cause was determined, they went to pick up the part needed and had everything back to normal for me within a couple hours of my first phone call. Their expertise and efficiency was just what I needed and recommend their services to anybody with electrical issues. Thank you MelFoster Electric!

While having some work done in our grandmother's kitchen the house lost partial power. We called MelFoster Electric and they were able to come out the same day. Ray the electrician was able to resolve the issue in less than an hour. Ray was knowledgeable, kind, efficient and very professional. I highly recommend this company for any of your electrical needs.

Lawrence and his MelFoster team did a great job upgrading my electric panel to handle a tankless water heater. He was prompt with providing an estimate and getting the work completed. Answered all my questions and showed tremendous attention to detail in getting everything correct and completed appropriately. The work looks clean and everything is functioning nicely. Highly recommend

MelFoster Electric came out and did a first rate job troubleshooting an electrical wiring problem that other contractors had wildly overestimated. Because if their understanding of exactly our issue we saved thousands of dollars in unnecessary demolition and rewiring. Ray did a great job, knew precisely what was wrong, and completed the rewiring in 20 min. Highly recommend and will use again without hesitation.
