Recommended Customer Reviews
These guys are the best. First - they were super responsive. Answered the call on a Tuesday evening and were here on Wednesday morning. Second - they were very professional in terms of Covid safety (wore masks, sanitized hands, etc). And finally, they did a great job and their charge was reasonable.
I will hire them again and highly recommend you do too!
Mr. Sims made time in his busy schedule to come look at an electrical problem I've been having with my a/c wiring for over a month now. He and his brother were very professional, came in masks and took the time to assess the issue. While this specific issue was not their area, Mr. Sims recommended a licensed professional who was able to do the work. It was especially timely since I'd had several popular vendors to come out but they were unable to diagnose the problem or actually fix the issue.
Perhaps the best part of the experience was the follow up to make sure my issue was taken care of. Customer service from this team was amazing and I highly recommend this business.
Joe D.Came by same day. Completed work quickly and at a reasonable price. Explained exactly what was needed and didn't try to upsell on services we didn't need. I liked that they were an honest, easy to talk to, family-run business. I trust them with all of my electric work moving forward because of how quick and fair they were. I've even referred them to my mom.
We needed two outdoor sconces replaced and Darrell was able to help us the same day! He was very communicative and did a great job. Great customer service and also wore a mask.
I would definitely recommend them for any services.
Julie H.We had an electrical emergency with smoke filling our basement and no obvious source - scary!! I called Sims and Sons and they got here amazingly fast. Masked as appropriate, professional, courteous, diagnosed the problem quickly, and fixed it plus bonus points for educating us on what happened exactly and what we needed to do to prevent further issues. They will be my go-to company for electrical and plumbing going forward!!
Tim C.Excellent experience! They responded quickly, showed up on time and did a great job. I will definitely call them for my next project.
Darrell showed up within an hour of me calling. We had an issue with water coming into the electrical panel through the AC which showed up on an inspection report. Darrell quickly found the issue and fixed it immediately. I highly recommend them!
Frank M.Great service ! Our Dishwasher, garbage disposal stopped working.
Called and got the owner. Great guy and was at our place in just a couple of hours.
Fixed it with ease and did not over charge us
I would definitely call them again!
Came out in emergency fixed problem will keep this number adding to my call lists
Called again because an outlet had fried itself. They came out next day and replaced ungrounded outlet with a grounded one. This will help to prevent future fires. Showed me the parts replaced. Price for service/parts was reasonable. Will definitely put on my to call list for future needs.
Graham S.I am in the process of selling my condo and suddenly needed a fast adjustment on my circuit breakers, and Darrell knocked that out real quick and easy for me. And i will say, I shop around on prices being offered and Sims and Sons was clearly a contender in that field! Highly recommended!
