I used Carmen Electrical to hang a chandelier over my dining table. Not only were they extremely responsive with great communication, but the service itself was top notch!Phil was lovely to deal and... extremely patient and helpful while I was trying to decide best height to hang the chandelier at. He accommodated my requests to try different heights until we eventually got there.Couple of weeks after hanging the Chandelier, I had an electrical issue in my house and called Phil for advice. He was able to help me resolve the issue over the phone and did not need to come.Carmen Electrical's number is now saved in my phone and Phil is my go-to person for any Electrical work I might need in the future. Professional, reliable and honest. Thank you Phil 🙂read more
