Called Thunderbolt to do a diagnostic and make some repairs on a home I've got under contract. They were not just on time, these guys were 'early, ' and took care of the issue for us. Very impressive with their responsiveness, easy of scheduling, pricing, and service. Great experience all the way around. You will not go wrong calling Thunderbolt Electric!

Had an electrician out today and I have to say, we were very impressed and will be working with you guys soon. Answered all of my questions and was super friendly and professional. Really appreciated him coming out here to Carlton and giving a free estimate. It's so hard to find good people these days! Can't wait to get started on my project.

Awesome experience with this company! They gave me a quote for electric connection and to my surprise they also did the plumbing needed for garbage disposal. On time, responsive, and job completed that didn't exceed initial quote. Highly Recommend!

I am here to recommend Thunderbolt Electric without hesitation. Craig arrived at around 9:00 AM, diagnosed our problem, explained our options, and rolled out of here shortly before 1:00 PM after installing a new electrical panel and box. Fast, quality service...and he's a nice guy on top of everything else. We are very well-pleased.

I highly recommend Thunderbolt Electric. We had some simple electrical repairs on our house, which was under contract. The fine folks at Thunderbolt were courteous, prompt, and fair. I collected a few quotes. Of all of them, Thunderbolt was the only company that has an upfront fee to come put eyes on the job before giving a price. The upside to this is they aren't excessively factoring in vast unknowns into their quote from their desk.

They can give an accurate and honest quote for the work. It's the ethical way to estimate job cost and supplies. I highly recommend this company. They were also incredibly prompt and efficient.

Thunderbolt was great from start to finish. They gave me a appointment within a few days of calling, called when they were on the way to my house and kept me updated throughout the entire process. Anthony was amazing!!! He fixed a garbage disposal & hall light, rewired the swimming pool light, added outlets around the outdoor deck, and installed flood lights for the back yard.

Basically I had a list a mile long and he checked them off one by one. What impressed me the most was how informative Anthony was. When he would run into something he didn’t feel was done right by the previous installers (AKA my dad, ha), he would suggest doing it a little better this time. He also asked my opinion on where to put outlets and gave me options for bulbs...giving reasons why one was better than the other. Bottom line, I can honestly say I trust the work Anthony did and will call them again! And side note, their prices were extremely fair. I got my money’s worth for sure.

We called Thunderbolt Electric Monday after the winds from Irma blew a tree into our wiring. Anthony, their professional and friendly electrician, arrived the very next morning! He was able to assess the damage and prepare a quote. The price was right and finishing the work the same day was priceless! Highly recommended people and work.

Today we had a service call for a tripping breaker. Our fix was not an easy solution and Thunderbolt Electric had to spend significant time trying to trace back to the root cause of the tripping breaker. We will definitely use your company again based on this experience.
