Looked it up to upgrade the breaker but I would need to do the wire as well. That was above my expertise. I called Arc and they were very responsive on the phone and handled any changes to my visit with ease. Tav dropped by and lent me his knowledge and best actions to save my money. Amazing, kind and professional man. He will send a quote but I may not need their services. If I do, I will 100% spendy money with Arc Electric. PS: I've seen they have other locations and are not rated as high as they are in the Raleigh area. Wonder if it's just management?

Josh came to do some work A+++. He replaced a light switch and outlet. He also installed new…read moresmoke 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.

He led his team showed up on time, worked quickly, and kept everything on schedule. The pricing was very fair, especially given the extra challenges of updating an older home. They were responsible, professional, and made sure the work was done safely and up to code. Everything was handled so efficiently without cutting corners.

I think this is only the second online review I've ever left but Volt Doctors provided such amazing…read moreservice that I was compelled to write. A tree unexpectedly took down my power line on a Saturday and pulled the entire power meter and pole off my house. Since it was a weekend my usual electrician wasn't available and he recommended Volt Doctors. Their 24 hr dispatcher immediately answered and they had an electrician on site within two hours on a Saturday evening. Erik, helped get my generator running and hooked up, and an hour after that I had an estimate and repair plan in hand. On Sunday and Monday Summer was in frequent contact with updates and by Monday afternoon the repair was complete and good as new! The job came in under the projected time and under budget, so they reduced the cost to the real hours worked. I can't speak highly enough about Volt Doctors, THIS is how you run a business!

My daughter bought a home and it need some electrical work done to fix a few minor things and to hardwire some flood lights, patio lights and other projects. After a first attempt with a company that charged a service fee ($129) and sent 3 men that did absolutely NOTHING that we needed...I had the lucky fortune of finding Volt Doctors. The owner is a very nice and hard-working local man businessman that knows his stuff. They were able to work on many items on my list and I am excited they will be coming back to give the house a complete check for older sockets and some loose plugs. (Clearly I don't know the correct terms) - But I DO know what it feels like to have someone NOT take advantage of me.

I'm satisfied with the outcome of that discussion and have no further concerns over pricing. They earned my business through their effort to make things right. Pros: Prompt response & service Knowledgeable & highly professional Technician Reliable/flexible-Rescheduled appointment to an earlier time slot with no issues Cons: May be cost prohibitive for some In my case: 192.43 Diagnosis fee 779.38 for services rendered: Total cost was 971.81 1) Diagnose garage light fixture not working (ballast/lighting was replaced on (2) units) 2) Estimate to replace a fixture on the outside of home (lighting replaced with a flood light fixture) 3) Estimate for an future install of an outlet in the master bath. Estimate was provided and totaled 868.36 for parts/labor/inspection permit admin fee Summary: I've had other companies out and have experienced poor results. In contrast the work that was performed by the Volt Doctors Tech was done pristinely. I don't recall the Tech's name...he was a quality minded individual...& took great care in performing the work yet worked efficiently (job was completed in under a hour or so).

However Jorge knew what he was doing and suggested removing the remote, and replacing with a wall mounted switch that would eliminate anyone ever having to go into our attic for the ceiling fan ever again. He was kind, brilliant, very skilled, and did the work quickly and efficiently. You could not ask for more of a competent electrician.
