We hired Trunnell to help with enhanced outdoor electrical needs. They ended up coming out 4x and after that, and a still not consistently working solution, we ended up paying another company to undo all the work done by Trunnell to go with a much more stable situation. The thing that is driving the 1-star review is that I feel they knew they did shoddy work and were looking to get something done quickly, even if there was a risk of the whole system tripping. And, in coming back, the multiple charges for the same issue felt less like a service and more like a way to make more money with the lowest viable solution. We will not be using this group again.

Trunnell Electric has performed two installations for us which included installing a bathroom exhaust fan/light. They went the extra mile and checked my other bathroom fan. Now that is customer centric service! They recently installed two chandeliers. Their work is reasonably priced, professional, and exceptionally well done. The electricians are polite, on time, and prepared to perform the requested service. We will soon contact them to install four more chandeliers. I highly recommend Trunnell Electric.

I hired Trunnell to run wiring and install a ceiling fan. They were great and easy to work with. An estimator came out, then we scheduled the work. They were on time, and did great work, and it was done fast. There was a separate issue I asked them to look at, which they did and corrected it, and did not charge me for, which I thought was very nice. I would definitely recommend them for your residential electric needs.

As an architect, I have very high standards for those doing work in my home. New to the state of Maryland, my realtor recommended Trunnell for installing 4 dimmer switches, 4 ceiling fans, 8 bath sconces and the dining room chandelier in my new townhome. I was impressed enough to ask them to take on the several other creative electrical projects such as wiring a 240v outdoor heater and sneaking in a few duplex outlets in closets and cabinets. Easy to work with and prompt to respond. Lovely.

I needed an entire wiring system redone at my house after the major renovation. I hired them and it's great to know beforehand how much the service would cost and the guys that did it were really professional and finished it in no time.

Just wanted to thank you for the great product you helped achieve on our pool house reconstruction. This project posed many electrical challenges that your team easily overcame. With the majority of your installation exposed, you were still able to meet the high level of workmanship that our architect's design demanded.

You may recall my husband Stanley D. and myself have contracted a job in our Bethesda home with Trunnell Electric. While your reputation is sterling in this community, we have, from the beginning, been exceptionally impressed with your service and, most of all, with your very fine employees.

We were having a window changed over to a door leading to an outside deck. The people doing the window work wont do anything with wiring or alarms etc. They got here about 8:30 am on Friday and began the demo on the window and the wall under the window and found there was some electrical wiring. They had to stop. It now was 9:30am I needed to find someone who could come out quickly to move the wires so the window people could continue.

I called the first name under electricans and they said they couldn't send anyone. The next name was Trunnell, called them explained my situation, the girl who answered the phone was really nice an passed me on to Rick. He said they could have someone on late morning /early afternoon. My wife was home and said you guys got there at 11:45. 2 hrs after I called.

The representative was great, friendly and clearly explained what he had to do was done and out in about 2hrs. Trunnell Electric won 5 stars for coming to the rescue in this time sensitive situation. We expected the price to be considerably higher than it was which was an added bonus. Trunnell will be our company to use for our needs Big thanks and much appreciation.

I appreciate your having accommodated my schedule. Your electrician was pleasant and efficient, and your charge reasonable. You had been recommended by Long and Foster.
