What homeowners and business owners say about working with our licensed electricians.
"Solid generator installation. They sized it correctly for our home, ran the gas line, and programmed the automatic transfer switch. Only four stars because scheduling took about ten days, but the work itself was flawless."
"Had a whole-house Generac generator installed by JJC Electric. The crew handled everything — concrete pad, gas line coordination, transfer switch, and the final hookup. We lost power twice since then and the generator kicked on instantly both times."
"My house had a faulty breaker fuse that would not reset and I needed an electrician to come out to get it fixed. I reached out to multiple local electricians and JJC Electric was by far the most responsive and professional. Fixed the issue same day."
