I was referred to Green Ridge Solar after I submitted an inquiry through Energy Trust of Oregon for a battery storage system. A battery storage system is a battery backup system that provides a home with AC power even when the power goes out. Battery systems are often installed by solar contractors, but solar is not necessary in order to get a backup system. Green Ridge Solar reached out to me by email and by phone pretending that I had made a request for solar, which I hadn't. After I explained that I was not interested in solar, an "Energy Advisor" named Austin sent me an email (see attached pictures) claiming (1) they "cannot" provide a battery backup system unless I have a solar array, and (2) that if I already have solar, the cost of "rewiring" an existing solar array to accommodate a battery system "usually starts at around $50,000." Regarding the first claim, there's no reason why a solar contractor cannot install a battery backup system without solar. If they choose not to do so, that's certainly their own business decision. But, to claim that they "cannot" is false. Nothing about a battery backup system requires solar. Presumably, they just wanted to sell me solar panels in addition to the backup battery. And the second claim is just complete BS. The total cost of a two-battery Tesla Powerwall system (which includes the batteries, wiring, gateway, inverter, etc), installed, is between $18,000 and $30,000. Claiming that it costs $50,000 just to "rewire" an existing PV system to **accommodate** batteries just completely false. It seems as if they hoped that I wouldn't know better, and might opt to hire them to replace my existing solar system (at a price that would undoubtedly be far lower than $50,000) just so that I could get a battery system. No thanks!

I found Winner Electric on Yelp search while looking for electricians in the east-of-Portland area…read more I needed an assortment of electrical issues addressed on my home. Open junctions, inoperable outlets and switches, questionable wiring, and unfinished projects: these are some of the trappings of owning an older home. Paul came out to do an estimate on our project. I had the project bid by multiple companies. Winner's attitude, willingness to take on the project, and prompt follow up with a quote earned them the job. We had a scheduling mishap, but I won't take stars off for that. It was resolved quickly. I am super happy with the work completed. The electricians came out and worked most of the day in all areas of my home. They replaced breakers, outlets, switches, and resolved loose and unsafe wiring that was downstairs and in my garage. Winner answered my questions, and if something didn't seem right, they worked together to find the root cause of the issue rather than applying a workaround. I was so happy with the work completed, that I hired Winner back a second time, a couple weeks later, to complete the wiring to an outbuilding and reconfigure the wiring in my garage. That work was largely completed Friday - waiting on a part to finish up a couple aspects, but I'm happy with this work as well. I would use their services again, and I would recommend to others.

They handled my install very professionally. Communication was fantastic. Worked with me every…read morestep of the way and were flexible when an unexpected factor cropped up. I am really happy with the results. These guys are my go-to for my next electrical project.

Thomas took on an electrical job I can only describe as one of biblical proportions! Adnara…read moreEquestrian Center is a boarding facility in Aurora that had previously been owned by a do-it-your- self kind of guy using duct tape and bailing twine. The wiring in the main boarding barn was a hodge podge of disaster waiting to happen. After meeting with several electricians to assess the scope of the job I chose to work with Classic Electric because Thomas had a can-do attitude and assured me the end product would be both up to code and permitted. It was obvious in the walk through he knew what he was talking about and the size and complexity of the job did not scare him off. I truly say working with Thomas was a pleasure due to his professionalism and work ethic. He gave us many suggestions for functionality and cost savings which were much appreciated on a project of this size. Now our barn is well lit, plugs are in good places, switches make sense and most importantly I feel safe knowing Thomas brought everything up to standard. His experience with old houses and barns certainly showed as he unraveled the years of do-it-yourself wiring we inherited. Thanks Thomas!

I had another excellent experience with Thomas. He was professional, punctual, and extremely…read moreknowledgeable. Everything was explained clearly. I would absolutely recommend Classic Electric to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality electrical work and will definitely be using him again in the future.

We were experiencing an issue where half our house was losing power. We already had another…read moreelectrician out a few weeks prior, and 3 days and 1k later, the problem still existed. That's when we called Unity. Brian was out the same day. I regret not making them my first choice. They are transparent about pricing, keep you updated as the project goes along, and just overall very professional. Brian has about 20 years of experience and it shows. He was in and out of our house so fast. Even though the job was a bit more complicated, his expertise shinned. What took the other person (literally) 3 days, took Brian a total of 3 hours. He was intentionally trying to find ways to save me money on labor, which made me trust him. The company and Brian exhibit good character and integrity. This is now my go to company and Electrcian. Finding a reliable tradesman/company isn't always easy, and I'm thrilled to have found one.

I found Unity through Angie's List and they were the first to call and the first to make it easy…read moreand get straight to the facts. I needed my panel reviewed and reworked because the plumber had told me my water heater was not on its own circuit and that concerned me. Brian came over for a consultation and I showed him around and all my concerns and how it would be nice to have more lighting in the kitchen since the condo is so dark and the kitchen is in the middle of the unit not near any windows. Brian and his apprentice were punctual, and they only took 2 days to do all the work that was needed. Brian is a gem of a human being, kind, patient, and very well educated. You can tell he knows his stuff and that he enjoys the work. Much to the chagrin of the spiders under the crawl space. Our crawl space is not the easiest to get to but instead of complaining both Brian and Wes treated it like an adventure and I appreciated that that attitude because I felt really bad anytime one of them had to go down there. Brian is our forever electrician now, anything we need in future we will be calling him/Unity first. The work is solid, my kitchen is the brightest it has ever been and I have so much real-estate on my counters now because I can see it's crazy! We won't live in this condo forever but I'm so happy it will be all set for the next owner to enjoy a kitchen they can see in, and an electric panel that won't harm them or their appliances. Can't sing Brian's praises enough. Thank you thank you thank you. I'm a happy camper in my tiny little condo with lots of light in her kitchen now. Thanks again!
