Eric S. says, "Sean is very passionate about his work. I hired him to do a simple light fixture install. I think what will really make me consider him most, for future work; is his insistence to be compliant with code. I just purchased my home and I was casually just explaining other possible projects I wanted to do that would require some electrical work - he carefully explained what he would do if he were hired - everything centered around being to “code”. As a person who works in the compliance space, this was music to my ears. As I mentioned to him, I can always vouch for what’s right….so this adds a level of trust and credibility towards him that will make him the guy I want our want for my future electrical projects. If you want it done right, hire Sean for your next home project."See more
