Josh came to do some work A+++. He replaced a light switch and outlet. He also installed new smoke detectors, replacing the pigtail (electrical connection), mount and used the batteries I gave him instead of the generic ones included. He also did some adjustments to a light fixture and a second outlet that were installed not straight. He took less time than I expected. He was done with everything in about 90 minutes. He tested every smoke detector after installing them. We previously used one of these electrical and plumbing companies but we were not happy. I'm so glad we found Raleigh Electric. I got quotes from 4 other companies, all about $800-1200 for the same work. I paid less than $300 to Raleigh Electric for all this work.

5 stars After waking at 1 am to our fire alarm, with loss of all power, AC, TV's , flashing lights and burned surge protectors our first call was Raleigh Electric for direction on what to do . Electrician Josh Hatley quickly identified that we had experienced a major power surge and we should contact our power company immediately. After the power company corrected their problem, Josh returned and repaired all outstanding electrical issues.

Raleigh Electric has done such excellent work for us. The folks in the office are really helpful and the electricians were also very communicative and easy to work with. They did a bunch of work for us before we moved into our new house, including fuse box replacement, outlet installation, and ceiling fan and ceiling light replacements. Everything has worked exactly as expected and we're planning to ask them back for more work in the future. Would recommend to anyone.
