Flip The Switch performed all of the electrical work in our home addition. Essac did a great job for us. He communicated well with us, the other trades and the inspector. In addition, Essac was very flexible with scheduling to make sure all the electrical work was completed on time.

I had an outstanding experience with Essac. He installed my Tesla charger quickly and professionally, ensuring everything was up to code and working perfectly. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the setup. The installation looks clean, and my charger is working flawlessly. I highly recommend them for anyone needing EV charger installation!”

I closed on an older home which required some electrical work and updates. Essac was able to handle all of that in a timely and profesional manner. He always showed up on time and answered any questions I had. As where other contractors would just leave when the job was done; Essac refused to leave or finish until he was satisfied with his work and until it was perfect. This means even as something as little as making sure the screws on outlets are all facing the same direction. My home had no lighting so I had Essac install recessed lighting which turned out amazing. Now my home looks and feels more modern. Would recommend this business to anyone needing residential work done.

We needed a lot of electrical work for our house, and Essac was there along with us the entire way! He’s patient, thorough, and explains well the work that needs to be done. What I appreciate the most is that he puts himself in the homeowner’s shoes, looks at all angles, and discusses with you what makes sense to do. He did major work, moving our meter to another side of the house, running cables through the crawlspace, upgrading the electrical panel, installing a generator hook up, EV charger, smart meters, you name it! He coordinated with the electric company, with the town permitting and inspectors, and was punctual and left the place in spotless condition every time. Thank you, Essac! Don’t hesitate to send your prospective customers to us for a recommendation. Looking forward for any future work with you!

I had an upgrade to be done in my 2 Family dwelling home. I had 3 different companies stop by and gave me a quote. Mr. Martinez from Flip The Switch Electrical, his quote was reasonable compared to others I received quotes from. Mr. Martinez examine the job carefully and presented me with a plan to get my work done in a timely manner. Very honest and professional, was the job completed and his attention to detail stood out above all. He updated me every step of the way until the job was complete. His well mannered and professionalism was second to none. I highly recommend Flip the Switch for any electrical job. A definite five star company.

Esaac is hands down one of the most professional electricians I’ve worked with. I own a business and needed some pretty extensive electrical work and although at first he wasn’t aware of exactly what I needed at first since it was specific to my business, he did the research, made sure he knew exactly what he was doing and got the job done quickly. He even came back multiple times on his own time and dime to ensure everyone was proper. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Flip the Switch was our electrical contractor during a recent renovation project of our turn of the century federal home. Be it wiring the new HVAC system, installation of outlets, recessed and under cabinet lights, heating elements for the tile floor, pendant lighting, all projects were completed with a high degree of professionalism. Essac was an outstanding communicator and a patient listener. He even stayed after hours to help address an emergency plumping situation sharing his tools, expertise, and valuable time away from family. Essac and Flip the Switch has our highest recommendation.

From the moment I called them, I had a good feeling. The Electrician was polite, well mannered, responsive and professional. He understood everything I wanted to do and was available at the time I needed. No pressure sales tactics, just authentic conversation.

Managing the process was surprisingly easy- the electricians came, were very nice and professional, worked quickly and cleaned up. They answered all my questions and had many options for me. It was a great experience and I highly recommend this company.
