"Showed up and finished right on time. Very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Very polite and professional, the job site was perfectly cleaned up before he left. The final price was exactly as he quoted. Excellent value for the money!"

"The two tech's, Mike & Micah, were extremely knowledgeable and efficent. I have a 12 year old Generac 15kw generator which needed to be connected. This generator needed rewiring and these two were amazing.They not only provided necessary certifications and insurance, but acquired the proper permits from Clermont County and arranged for the County inspection when the job was completed, I am not a person that impresses easily, but I have other jobs I will be calling Mapp & Smith to complete. Large or small, I believe they will be able to do them all. I might add, I had quotes from 4 other companies, with pricing of over $3000.00, and they came in lower than all. I also like the fact that they shared all receipts for parts and was extremely conservative with their labor pricing."

"Bart Hamilton was very professional. He submitted a written estimate to me, unlike my other two estimates. He answered questions promptly and courteously. Work was completed in a timely manner. Finally, and certainly not least, Hamilton Lightning presented the best value for a complete system. I highly recommend this company."

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:

A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
