Report
I can not begin to express the kindness and professionalism that Gorge Electrical services embodies. We flooded early morning on Monday and by Tuesday and Wednesday they had a new panel box installed and power turned back on. They brought flood lights for demo while working, and made sure we could rest that night knowing we were safe from any other… dangers. They went above and beyond. Not to mention they installed a waterproof box for our sump pump last year which was the only thing that didn't get wet in 5.5' of water. This held an alarm that gave us fair notice the pump box was filling

Needed a bathroom fan fixed or replaced so called them. Not an emergency so the electrician made an appointment for the following week. He came on the day arranged and at the time scheduled. He diagnosed and fixed the problem efficiently as well as vacuuming and cleaning up after the work. He also fixed one other small problem light on the stove as part of the same call. Very impressed by friendly and professional service and would certainly call them again if I needed an electrician.
