I’ve tried for over 2 months to get one of their workers to come fix an issue they caused when installing a fan in July. They don’t respond to calls or texts often. When they do respond they promise to show up at specific times agreed upon by both parties then they don’t show up. This has happened numerous times. They can’t seem to get their act together. Don’t use them.
In the aftermath of a terrible storm, I was left with a fallen tree, downed power lines, a damaged vehicle, and significant damage to the exterior of my home. Feeling overwhelmed, I turned to God in prayer and asked Him to guide my next steps. I trusted He would lead me, and He did.Initially, I was directed to a company, but they couldn’t come for an estimate for another week — and with live wires near my home, I knew I couldn’t wait. So I searched again and came across Schmidt’s Electrical. I had never heard of them before, but something in my spirit nudged me to call.When I reached out, the owner, Erik, answered right away. He listened patiently to my situation and said he would come immediately. True to his word, he arrived quickly, assessed the situation, and gave me a fair and honest price. He was not only timely, but also kind, respectful, and professional — truly a blessing in a time of distress.Erik told me he would gather what he needed and return shortly. Within a few hours, I had power again. The next morning, Pepco arrived and was surprised to see how much easier their job had been made. God had truly sent help right when I needed it most.Thank you, Schmidt’s Electric, for being the answer to a prayer. You brought more joy and peace than you know.Let me know if you’d like to make it more personal or add a Bible verse or quote.
I recently had recessed lighting installed in my home by Schmidt's Electrical, and I’m thrilled with the results! Erik was professional from start to finish, arriving on time and ready to work. He took time to discuss lighting placement and made sure the design met my vision for my open concept kitchen and living room. The installation process was smooth, and he was meticulous, leaving no mess behind. The new lights completely transformed the space, adding the modern touch I desired. I would definitely recommend Erik and Schmidt's Electrical for their expertise, efficiency, and attention to detail!
I recently hired Schmidt's Electrical to install a ceiling fan in my condo, and I couldn't be happier with the service. From the start, the scheduling process was simple, and they were able to accommodate my availability. The electrician Erik arrived on time, was friendly, and explained the installation process clearly. He worked efficiently and ensured that everything was safe and working correctly before leaving. The fan works perfectly, and he cleaned up afterward, leaving the area spotless. Great customer service and high-quality work! Highly recommend Schmidt's Electrical for any electrical needs.
Erik recently installed flood lights and sconce lights outdoors at my home. Erick and His team did a great job at a reasonable price and promptly returned when I requested a few adjustments. I would highly recommend Erick and His team for electrical work.
