Barbara Archambault on Optimum Electric

We had Greg and his son and instill outlets in our basement. He did an excellent job he’s reasonably priced. He even took care of a problem with the circuit breaker that stopped our outlets from tripping in our bedroom. We would trust him to do anything in our house. We will be having him and his son back to do more work in the future.

They did an awesome job for us. Stopped at the house to look at what we wanted, adding can lights and a GFI outside. Immediately started working on it. Greg and Billy are great people and electrician.

Greg K was there when he said he would be. In an older house, he found the problem quickly and made good recommendations for correcting the issues, then was able to do the work all within a couple hours. I felt the cost was very reasonable and I will definitely go back to him for other work I may need done.

Chrissy Kammerer on Optimum Electric

When it comes to electrical work, there is no one better out there, trust us. In fact, I can’t say enough good about Greg and his son who operate Optimum Electric. We have a 100+ year old home with a very complex, established electrical system and we only trust Greg with it. On top of his expertise, he is extremely quick to respond to you and he is extremely thorough in every aspect of what he does. He’s incredibly reliable and also incredibly reasonable. There’s never a time I don’t feel relieved after he’s done with the work. Over the past 20 years, we’ve grown to become very protective and particular about who we hire to do work on our home, and Greg is ALWAYS our first call. When we need them, they are always there smiling, professional and thorough. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Highly recommend.

Greg and his son did an excellent job upgrading my existing power panel so that I can add an air conditioning unit. Showed up on time and completed the work quickly and very neatly. Highly recommend his service!
