Tanya G. says, "Dwight was absolutely a god sent, we just moved into our new home & the cleaner’s accidentally clogged & backed up our kitchen sink by throwing out all the dirty water & grime after they scrubbed our carpets. To say that we are not knowledgeable in repairs & plumbing, would be an understatement. So finding someone that is trustworthy & honest, is as important to us as their skill level & abilities. Those of us that do not have these skills, all have stories of being taken advantage of, charged 5 times what we should have been or told that what is wrong is actually worse then it is. Which is why I researched & knew instantly that I wanted to use K&Dee Home Hauling, Plumbing & Remodeling. It was clear reading the endless positive reviews that Dwight has worked very hard & has earned his amazing & great reputation. I was so confident that he was the only service that I called. AND WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED. I honestly can’t say enough great things about him. He was nice, kind, professional, explained what he was doing & answered all of our questions with ease. And of course, it was not exactly an easy fix, because of where the blockage was & the severity of the blockage. After checking & making sure that it wasn’t anything else causing it. It was so far back that he had to go into our basement to get to the blockage in the piping. It was definitely a lot more involved & time consuming than just a normal clogged kitchen sink. He knows what he is doing & gets the job done with an ease & comfort. He works quickly & efficiently, and cleaned everything up after he was done. I generally would never have work done without my husband home or if I was by myself. We will definitely be using him for any plumbing, electrical & home remodeling that we need done. I was completely comfortable with him & would not hesitate to have him work on our house even if we were not at home or I was by myself. Which truly speaks volumes about this man’s character. He is truly a jack of all trades. I can honestly say with full confidence that this was 100 percent hands down, one of the best experiences that we have ever had, when it comes to hiring any company or business to repair & fix something. More importantly, to say that Dwight is honest, trustworthy & more than reasonable and fair when it comes to pricing, would be an understatement. My husband & I are so happy to finally find a business & professional that we can depend on & trust. I have no doubt that when I say that you won’t find a more qualified, honest, trustworthy & fair professional"See more

How can I find a licensed and reliable electrician?

It’s important to always hire an electrician licensed in your state. You can verify an electrician’s license by visiting your state’s licensing board and looking up their full name, business name, and/or license number. Ensure their license is still active and valid, and watch out for red flags (like too many complaints).

In addition to verifying their license, do the following before hiring an electrician:

  • Read their customer reviews

Complete the following steps before an electrician arrives at your home:

  • Give the electrician details about the problem. Describe the issue in detail. Explain to them what you see, hear, and even smell. 

  • Remove obstacles and obstructions from the work site. Ensure the electrician has a clutter-free area to work, and that they can easily access your electrical system components. 

  • Keep pets and children away. This will help ensure their safety and allow the electrician to focus on their work without distractions. 

Are there any safety concerns I should be aware of with electrical work?

Avoid DIY-ing any electrical work to ensure your safety. Instead, hire a licensed electrician. Electrical projects contain many hazards, including electrical fires and shocks.
