I needed to get some minor electrical work done. I reached out to American Electrical. Leigh was very helpful in learning what I needed and set.a price. Installation day, ran into a snafu that was my fault. Leigh addressed it and got the crew to come out the same day. Noah C. and Daniel B. called and announced they were arriving. A quick conversation to confirm the work, and off they went. They knocked the job out and ensured the area was cleaned up. Everything looked great. Kudos all around to American Electrical. Definitely recommend for any future needs.

Had American Electrical out to my home for a NEMA 6-50 Outlet installation to install an EV car charger. The call to set up an appointment was impressive and installation was scheduled quickly. Kyle and Chris were on time, calling in advance. Both were professional, knowledgeable of the task and pleasant to work with. Installation was quick and neatly done.

They mounted and connected the charger also and it was neat and professional work as well. I have already recommended them to others with my company seeking similar work. Will use them again when needed.

I've used AEC for multiple projects and used on personal residence. Highly recommend. James - came out twice to ensure job was fully understood and was ultra flexible with my hectic schedule. James quickly noticed I'm a curious fella' and fully explained the work to occur. He hands down was able to beat estimates from three other companies. Frankly, I don't even know why I waste my time bothering. Kyle - the lead service tech called me prior to arrival and when I said I'd be late he didn't freak out or complain, he was totally understanding and beyond friendly. Genuinely a nice guy.

The level of care and attention is exactly why I'll call back for another job. I kept pestering with questions why this, how come that, and Kyle explained why or how. Additionally, huge points for cleaning up. Also, he was able to do a massive job without destroying my drywall. He even screwed back the tiny drywall cut out. The best line was Kyle telling his helper who who in the attic sweating a storm "this is what we do man".

I love that! Like total ownership right there. No matter the circumstance - this is what we do. Classic. Kyle, definitely a great leader and coach. Quinn - the up and comer. Also very friendly and personable. Great crew! Thanks all. One note tho - I recommended to my family in saint Augustine but crew was late and didn't give heads up, think someone said not really our coverage area.

My family member was not pleased. as for me tho, I'll keep calling back - duh! Easy company to work with, great price, great knowledgeable crew. My experience was percent! Thank you.

Kyle and Chris were fantastic. They could have talked us into a large repair which we thought we needed, but they were honest and showed us the small fix to our problem. They were polite and professional and timely. They also advised us on how to get other issues resolved and the approximate cost of doing so. So glad I called American Electrical Contracting, Inc. Will do further business with them.

Brian and Jesse came to look at a couple of quirky lights and to move some ceiling fans around for us. They called to say they were ahead of schedule and wanted to be sure it was alright if they arrived early. Once here they diagnosed the problems with the lights and repaired them quickly and expertly. Then they set to work on the fans. They were friendly, courteous and respectful of our home.

They covered furniture to protect it from falling dust and debris. They even had to move bedroom furniture to get to one of the fans! Once they were finished they returned everything to its original place and cleaned up thoroughly. They even checked us out on the operation of the fans. I can't say enough good things about these guys. Great price too. I highly recommend them and would definitely use them again!

Mike S. and Joe F. recently installed several decorative art lights, can lights and a new dining room chandelier. All of these required all new hard wiring and new switches. These guys found a way to install all new fixtures without putting one hole in the wall or ceiling. Very impressive work on time and within budget. Don't go elsewhere. Hire American!

Wow~~American Electrical has served us very well a 2nd time on a remodel. We called with the expectation that there may be a wait to get a quote and have some work done. Thrilled when a cancellation allowed us to get service the very next day! No quote needed because the work was easy to explain and understand. Chris Alexander and Brock showed up on time, ready to work and had almost all of the necessary supplies with them on the truck.

The other parts that were needed were promptly requested and delivered on site without Chris or Brock leaving or missing a beat. All work was top-notch, performed well and to our complete satisfaction. They were so professional, prompt, clean, courteous. It's been one of the best experiences of our remodel so far! Thank you, Chris and Brock. Can't wait to have you out for the final trim-out and install. We appreciate your work. Great job American Electrical! We will continue to rely on you for excellent electrical work. Well done!

Bobby, Brett, Andrew and Mike made a great team. Worked hard all day and finished what I believe was a pretty decent size job in a single day. Impressive!

We had American Electrical Contracting install a whole house Generac generator. We chose to use them because they offered a complete installation service including the necessary permit and gas line installation. The installation crew did a great job with the actual generator and associated hardware installation. Next the gas line installation was scheduled and completed.

Today Randy came to perform the system start and transfer of power check. The final inspection will complete the job. Overall the process went smoothly and the installation looks great.

Scott Tucker and his assistant were prompt, courteous and very personable. They knew right off the bat what the problems I had with my outlets and switches were. They were both very informative and answered all my questions without hesitation. They finished the job quickly and with no mess. I can sincerely say they are a great team and I highly recommend them and this company. It was a very pleasant experience. Thank you gentlemen!

I wanted to take a moment to thank you and your team for the hard work and efforts on the Palm Coast City Hall project. The project faced a number of challenges including a firm schedule deadline and numerous Owner requested changes at the end.

American Electrical Contractors, Inc. performed at an exceptionally high level on the UNF Campus Maintenance Facility project. There was a tremendous amount of exposed conduit on the project and the installation/workmanship in the field was second to none. The project had a demanding schedule and was successfully delivered on time and under budget.

American Electrical is a top rated Electrical Contractor here in Jacksonville and I have worked with them for many years. Dave is likely the best Project Manager/Estimator in the City.

American Electrical went above and beyond in the completion of their work for the JIA Server Room upgrades. Despite multiple existing condition conflicts, design revisions, and delays caused by other project contractors, the work was completed within the schedule milestones set forth.
