Hired on Thumbtack

I had the best experience with Cordell and team. I needed exterior surveillance cameras and soffit lighting installed for my home. He was overly communicative, thorough and a consummate professional. Cordell and Colby explained my project in detail prior to installation and during the process, connected with me to make sure I was comfortable with the ongoing process. I absolutely LOVE my home lighting! So much so, I've invited friends and family over in the evening just to see them. The enhanced curb appeal is simply remarkable. I have separate, electrical work to be done in my home at a later date and without hesitation, Cordell will be the first person I call. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for an aging electrical/lighting contractor!

Details: New lighting installation • 2-4 lights • Under 8 feet (low ceiling) • Outdoors • Existing property • House

What We Built ⚡️'s reply

We can’t say enough wonderful things about customers like April. Was straight forward upfront. Was respectful, reasonable, responsive, polite, and understanding. I could keep going on raving about April as a person and as us doing business together. I can’t tell you guys how many times I run into people that want SO MUCH work done but only wants to pay nothing to do the work. So April thank you for hiring us and supporting my business and May God continue to protect your home and your future. Thank you for hiring WWB⚡️.

I had an awesome experience with Cordell and Colby from What We Built. They’ve been an incredible team for all of my electrical needs. From installing the ring doorbell to setting up chandeliers and a security system they’ve consistently delivered top-notch service. Cordell was prompt in his responses, always arrived on time and maintain a courteous and professional demeanor throughout. He completed task quickly and correctly, leaving no room for worries. If you’re looking for reliable and skilled professionals for your electrical projects, I highly recommend What We Built.
