I called around to several area electricians, some didn't return my calls, and some just blew me off. When I called Chris, he called me back within an hour, and he was at my house later that day! I also had several light fixtures that I needed to have installed, and he was able to get that done as well. I've also had Chris wire cable jack and outlet above my fireplace to be able to mount a TV, and also wire for and install sconces in my dining area. Chris is a fantastic communicator, which I value tremendously. I would very highly recommend Chris to anyone in the Greater Portland area who needs an electrician!
