We have used Waldman Electric for several years now. They have installed numerous ceiling fans, replaced/upgraded our electrical panel, installed a whole home surge protector, installed new lighting fixtures and fixed some existing fixtures. Whatever the job, they took care of it in a prompt, professional and efficient fashion. But I think what I appreciate most is I feel like I am valued and treated fairly as a customer. I am not an electrically minded individual but I feel like everyone from Waldman speaks to me neither too technically nor too simply. They genuinely want to make sure that I understand what they are doing and why. When I ask a question, they make sure I understand the answer. That is appreciated very much. I am very pleased with the service and value that I receive from Waldman Electric!

For the last 40 plus years we have had Waldman Electric do extensive services at our previous garden center as well as multiple homes we have lived in. We also recommend them for our customers that have electrical services and always get a huge thanks from the customers for such a great recommendation. Recently a customer wanted a hot tub installed and needed a new service to accommodate the tub and they were thrilled at both the job done and the professionalism and thoroughness of the electricians. We recommend Waldman Electric WITHOUT HESITATION!!

It just so happened that Chip came out on the coldest day in early February. With the wind, it felt like 0 degrees, if not worse. But he was so upbeat, thorough, and professional throughout the time he worked on the project. He truly is a benefit to Waldman Electric and I'll be calling the company for more upgrades soon. Thank you so much!
