No real people answer the phone. Long waits. Connect to other automated menus. Hate it. Communications are absolutely horrible. Not the same company it used to be. Never get through to a real person. Long, long wait times. Canceled my service appt and never contacted me.

I would recommend Current Electric to anyone! They are affordable, professional, and customer service oriented. We had Eric as our electrician and he went above and beyond for us. We had a new outlet installed, can lights installed, and ceiling fans installed. He kept us informed the whole time with updates on progress, time frames, and got our input along the way. We will definitely be using Current for all of our electric needs.

Went great, poor guy had to go into the attic to put in new mounting box. Hot up there. Was very professional and fun to talk with. Explained what he was doing and gave us mounting choices on the fan. Would definitely recommend for projects in the future.

Everything went fantastic! Tyler and Nick were both punctual, super professional, and pleasant. Tyler explained the estimated time the job would take, cost, and possible problems we could run into. Thankfully we did not run into any of the possible problems… The job was completed within the estimated time and under the estimated cost. Tyler and Nick cleaned everything up and removed boxes and old fixtures. Tyler then walked us through everything that was done and everything on the bill. I really wish every company I hired was as professional and easy to work with as Current Electric… from the initial calls to the final work and walk-through, I am VERY happy with their service. I would DEFINITELY hire them again.
Description of Work: Replaced two walk-in closet fluorescent lights with LED lights, range hood with fan and lights.

Aaron and Wade are the best! Polite, walk you through every step , they just went the extra mile! Only hiccup was WE energies and when they could get out here to turn off power completely so they could connect to new service. Other than that it went perfect and I definitely would hire them again and actually request for Aaron and Wade!

Kyle’s work was excellent. He was very knowledgeable in all aspects of his work. Kyle was friendly and explained in detail exactly what he would be doing. Kyle literally went out of his way for us and his work was beyond our expectations! We would definitely use Current Electric for all our future electrical needs.

Josh was polite, professional and persevered through a challenging install (very complicated light fixture). All work completed to my satisfaction. Recommend this company. They aren’t the least expensive, but like most things in life you get what you pay for.

The team at Current Electric was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Work was performed well. Communication and punctuality were top notch. My only minor complaint is they are on the pricier side of electrical contractors. But with most work you get what you pay for.
