Absolute put an additional circuit in my house, and they routed it out to my garage. The service was super. The individual that came out was clean, very polite, punctual. He listened and explained a better way of doing what needed to be done. They’re definitely an A. They did a very outstanding job with the installation.

Absolute Electric checked the wiring and did some installations. They’re a great company. The electricians were very polite and knowledgeable about the business—they know what they’re doing. 

We had an emergency, and somebody came right out. They were great. Our refrigerator’s outlet stopped working, and Absolute Electric was excellent. They came in, analyzed the situation, and told us what was wrong. I was very impressed. I’d highly recommend them. I’d give them an A.

Absolute Electric was spectacular. It was a pretty big job. We had a hot tub installed, and they put all the circuits in and made sure that it got hooked up properly. The technician was really very cordial and did a good job for us.

Absolute Electric did a great job. Their personnel knew what they were doing; they were very efficient, and they came in and started working immediately when they got here. There were two electricians who were installing three ceiling fans that we needed. Once they were done, they vacuumed up everything. They took the boxes and threw them out and showed me how everything worked. It couldn’t have gone better.

Absolute Electric was fantastic. They’ve done numerous jobs for us; I would highly recommend them to anybody.

Absolute Electric did an excellent job. I've been very pleased with their work. They've done two jobs for us and they've both been good. Their expertise is what stood out. They were very professional as well, but they definitely knew what they were doing, and they were able to fix the issues that we were having.

I've had a lot of work done here on my home from a lot of different contractors, but I've only had one problem with any of the contractors, and it was not Absolute—they put the attic fan in, and they did a good job. They were very quick, here on time, provided me with some information about the product in terms of the quality and the warranty, and they finished the job really quickly. Everything was great.

They were great. They had to troubleshoot, and they were able to find the problem in a pretty decent amount of time without having to pull out my entire wall. They were incredibly professional and they were very thorough. Even after he found the problem, he made sure to look to make sure that was it, and didn't just do the quick fix and leave. I had personal attention from the owner—I know they're a small business—but that meant something; that was kind of cool.

Absolute Electric was awesome. I plan on using them again. They had a clean and organized execution of the work that we wanted. They showed up on time and there were no surprises, there were no 'gotchas', and there was no fine print. It was precisely what I wanted and the work was done well on top of it. So, it was the whole execution of the contract that stood out.
