Basement Electrical Installation

Backup Electric did a fantastic job on wiring my basement. All my requests were met and everything looks and works great. They did all the legwork in contacting the Electrical Authority on my behalf and getting the work fully certified. I couldn't be happier with the end result.

Installl new electrical panel, power for electric hot water heater, and various other outlets

Brent (owner of Backup Electric) was recommended to us by the vendor of an electric tankless water heater.

Brent is knowledgeable, thorough, polite, trustworthy - an absolute pleasure to work with. He went over and above on customer service, working quickly, neatly and creatively solved challenges.

I will call him first whenever I have electrical work to do.

Installation of landscaping lights as well as upgrading switches, installing new lights and switches where there were none. General electrical repairs.

We bought an older house and Brent has helped us redo various electrical projects both inside and outside the house. We call on him when ever we have an electrical problem. whether small or large.
He is pleasant, trustworthy, clean and neat in his appearance and work, and reasonable.

Kitchen Pot lights

I had Brent give me a quote on about 18 pot lights in my kitchen and Dinette area. His quote was few dollars more then another contractor, But needless to say Brent was a lot more professional and knowledgeable then the other guy.I was very pleased with the exceptional quality of his work, his cleanliness and his willingness to explain everything to me in detail.He also uses quality fixtures such as JUNO pot lights. I would recommend Brent to anyone looking for trusted electrical work.

First Review

10/10

Rewiring, installation of fixtures etc

We purchased a home built in the late 1930"s that came with some knob and tube. Brent was called and arrived the next day to fix our problem so we could get house insurance. Ever since that day he has been there to help us from the smallest jobs like installing dimmer switches to more highly skilled electrical work. Brent does great work and is honest. An all around nice guy.
