I’ve had Robertson Electric out a couple of times for my HVAC system and always been happy with their service. So when I needed an outlet installed in my kitchen they were my first call. They arranged the work with my schedule, showed up exactly when they said, installed the outlet right where I needed it, and cleaned everything up afterward. I couldn’t be happier with their service!
Kimberly Kosky
I’ve been using Roberson Electric for my heat/AC service happily for a few years, and when I needed a simple exterior electric outlet installed, they were the first on my list to call. Setting up the estimate appointment was quick and easy, as well as the later installation. The electricians were mindful of my home, needs, and were very patient as we discussed the installation. Once complete, we walked through the installation, testing, and updates to my fuse box. They did a great job.

Robertson Electric is the very best. I highly recommend you buy their service agreement, too - that way you get priority service if you ever get in a jam. They do top-notch work and all of their people are very courteous and a pleasure to deal with.
