“Marcos rewired my brother's entire house and did a fantastic job and corrected all the mistakes and brought everything up to code. After hearing about my brother's experience, I hired Marcos to fix the lighting and bring all my electrical issues up to code when i purchased a new property recently. He talked me through all my electrical issues and explained everything to me, which has been tremendously helpful. He was so good that even the seller of my property hired him to fix some electrical issues! He is absolutely fantastic, easy to work with, and always completes the job really fast with no disruptions. He is my go to electrician and I cannot recommend him highly enough.”
