A couple of weeks ago I moved into a new condo. Picked it up kinda cheap because it needed a bunch of work. I sat and looked at my new place and realized that I didn't know how to do mostly anything. I reached out to a friend who had a "guy." The guy turned out to be Andrew Taggart of Taggart Electric. Anyways, long story short, he came over and hooked up my TV, my new ceiling fans, put track lighting in, put new outlets in the bathroom, bedroom and the front hallways. He had ideas for new stuff that I didn't even know was possible. He was really nice and came over when he said he would (anyone who has worked with electricians or plumbers or anyone like that, knows what I'm talking about). Not a big reviewer, but Andrew and Taggart Electric deserves a solid review because I feel like I have to pay it forward. If you need someone who is super knowledgeable, super friendly, and doesn't break the bank, then Taggart Electric is the electrician for you. Thanks Andrew! (haha. If you read this, next time I have to call you over, I hope I can get a 10% discount for my glowing words!) read more

We needed our ceiling fan replaced in a room in our house and for some reason the electrical connections up there were all messed up so no one could seem to figure it out. After my dad couldn't do it and a friend couldn't, we decided to call an actual electrician. I found Andrew on yelp and since his reviews were great I called him up. He was awesome. He scheduled an appointment within a few days and was on time. He had the ceiling fan installed within one hour and had no problems at all. He was really professional and pleasant to work with. He was also reasonably priced. I would highly recommend him! read more

I lost power to a section of my house last night, including my furnace. Being one of the coldest nights of the year (in March no less), this was very important. I called a variety of 24-hour services, but could not be connected to a human or any emergency electricians. I sent Andrew Taggart a text message at the phone listed on his website after finding and liking the reviews here. It was shortly before Midnight on a Sunday night. Then I went to bed. Andrew replied at 6:52 AM with a text saying that he probably couldn't get out to me before Noon. That seemed plenty fast to me as we were already implementing cold-weather protocols. My wife and son spent the day at the library while I held down the fort with two layers of clothes on. Andrew texted me at 10:20 AM that he was on his way over and he was here about an hour later. I showed him everything I had done, and he got to work tracking down the problem. He eventually found an outlet that had been overloaded by a $8 toy plugged into it. I didn't think to check it because a working lamp was still plugged into the other half of the outlet. He replaced the outlet and put everything back together. He charged me a very reasonable price, for which I was very happy to have my heat back on, especially when the worst case scenario would have been a fire in my son's room. Before Andrew showed up, I got a text from another service which quoted me almost 50% more for 2 hours of work. So I was very happy with the price that Andrew offered. I trusted based on other reviews that he would be reasonable, and he was. None of this even takes into account what a nice guy Andrew was. He was friendly, spoke very plainly, and was happy to explain what he was doing and why. I was concerned because I knew that I did not have a trusted electrical contractor. Sometimes it's hit-or-miss, especially when you'll take anyone you can get because you're freezing. I think I got exceptionally lucky with Andrew, and now I have someone I will definitely call again if I need an electrician. Thanks, Andrew! To all of you Yelpers, I hope that my information helps you choose a great contractor. read more

Was looking for an electrician. Texted the number - within 30 minutes, the electrician Andrew called me. Within 2hrs - he was on site. Shortly after, my issue was resolved. Painless, seamless, and professional resolution. Telling all my friends and fellow biz owners of my experience read more

I called him with a problem-trying to power a 3phase 220v machine tool on a 110 20A circuit, and though we didn't work out a perfect solution, when I called him back he had a suggestion. He actually cared about the idea enough to think about it after he got off the phone! Andrew is a man I want to hire. read more

Working with Andrew was so easy. When nobody could come fix my issue for days at the earliest, Andrew was available within two hours. He quoted me a price in line with what I expected and even showed up 15 minutes early. Within half an hour, the problem was fixed and explained in language that even I could understand. Then Andrew charged me about 25% less than he'd quoted on the phone. Bottom line: I was treated fairly and honestly, and had my problem solved with speed and expertise that exceeded my expectations. Andrew will be my first call if I ever need an electrician again. read more

Tried to schedule a time for them to look at work and Andrew didn't show up a number of times and didn't bother to call to reschedule. I gave him ample opportunity but it seems like he was too busy... wish he would have said that up front and I wouldn't have bothered. read more

My building had some fixtures that needed to be replaced. After quoting through a few places, Taggart Electric was the most responsive and had the best quote. When Andrew arrived, he was friendly and did the job very quickly and professionally. He took time to explain what was going to be replaced and how to use the exterior the exterior security lamps once they were installed. Everything was cleaned up, like no work had even been done. He even labeled the building circuit breaker since it wasn't labeled before. Highly recommended. read more

Very unreliable. We set up a time for him to come to my condo for a walk through and he didn't show up or bother letting me know until I contacted him several hours later. I decided to give him another chance and set up another appointment for the following week. He showed up 45 minutes late, again without bothering to let me know, took a quick look at my issues and said he'd send over a write up. A week later and I never received it. Guess he doesn't want my business. read more

Love this guy (so did my neighbor who he helped out)--smart, super-efficient, and funny. I called him because I had a problem with what then appeared to be a fire in an outlet (turned out it wasn't) and quickly discovered, as a lot of other people have noted, how impossible it is to get electricians to return a call. Andrew answered his cellphone (seriously, this felt like a miracle after not hearing back from people who had stellar Yelp ratings), he gave me a realistic appointment time, showed up on time, and solved the problem inexpensively. He also spent a lot of uncompensated time explaining the problem and answering unrelated questions and gave me a great referral to a handyman company. p.s. I've said this in other posts, but I think it's worth saying again that I would be leery of contractors in this category who have a disproportionate number of posts relative to their peers. None of those folks called me back even though I would say in my messages, no problem if you're too busy, just let me know. I could see blowing off calls for other types of contracting services (e.g. concrete work) but when it comes to plumbing and electricity that are really worrisome things to homeowners, it's not cool. read more

Immediately responded to my request to come look at an old vanity light in my bathroom. The guy was super nice and knew exactly what the problem was. In less than 30 minutes the whole thing was fixed. The price was also fantastic. read more

We purchase a light fixture and this business was one of several electricians the light fixture shop recommended to install it. I contacted several and only Taggart responded and did so very promptly and scheduled an appointment within a few days. The electrician arrived right on time, the price was very reasonable and he did a great job. read more

Andrew is the best. Very accommodating, professional, honest, knowledgeable, and his rate is so affordable. He took care of the problem immediately, and even checked my new dishwasher that I personally installed, just to check if I did it right and safely. read more

Left telephone message and email message. Taggart answered neither. Tried twice since reviews on both Yelp and Angie's list were excellent. Unfortunately, I cannot agree. read more

This guy is great. We had a hallway of lights that shorted out. Andrew was on time, super efficient, found the problem, and fixed it quickly. He had several ideas immediately as to what may have gone wrong and quickly assessed the situation. Was in and out in about an hour and for what I thought was an extremely fair (if not low) price. Will use him for any electrical work in the future and would recommend him to anyone else. read more

I needed help replacing two carbon monoxide detectors. Andrew was the first electrician I called that answered the phone. I called on a Friday, and he made time to come over on Saturday. Andrew promptly and efficiently replaced the carbon monoxide detectors for a reasonable cost. He is very knowledgeable and personable, and I highly recommend him. read more

I'm a Realtor with a client who wanted to buy a property that needed electrical work done. My normal electrician I used was fully booked, so my client discovered Taggart through Yelp, and the 5 star rating is no joke. Extremely personable, knowledgeable and reasonable. He is now my go to electrician when referring to clients or other agents. Highly recommend! read more

Andrew - the owner along with Tony were very professional and thorough. We had them hang a chandeleir, hook up outdoor speakers and install an outlet and mount a flat screen on a wall. These are master electricians and Andrew's pricing is very reasonable in comparison to other licensed electricians. You will not be dissapointed in hiring Andrew. We will use them for all of our future electrical needs and will be referring them to friends in need of a quality electrician. read more

Excellent service! courteous, knowledgeable, well qualified, friendly, and reasonably priced. My favorite part: they answer emails! This is the first electrician I found who actually responded to my inquiries (by phone or email). He responded quickly, was able to come when I needed him and did a great job. What more could you want? I will definitely hire Taggart Electric again if I need more work done and would confidently recommend the company to any friend. read more

Wow, what a great experience! We are remodeling our bathroom and needed a licensed electrician to move the electricity. I consulted Yelp, and picked Taggart Electric because of the great ratings that they had received. The great ratings were well deserved. Andrew was terrific to deal with. He was professional, showed up on time, and did a great job. read more

I had an electrical issue that needed some attention. A friend of a friend used Andrew in the past so I called him. He was very nice, friendly with my kids, and did good work. read more

Andrew and his team were super! I had them add some outdoor decorative and security lighting and a new can light, which they were able to do on pretty short notice. Andrew was easy to communicate with prior to the job, and was generally very responsive. He and his team were very professional, nice and helpful, and the price was reasonable given the work. Not to jinx myself, but I think this is one of the better home related service provider experiences that I have had in a long time... read more
