We needed work done to fix our bathroom light and fan. The previous owners of the house used a ground wire as the neutral. I called around and Carter Electric was the first people available to come out. Cody showed up on time, actually he was a bit early, diagnosed the problem quickly and got to work fixing the problem. He did a great job. My dog liked him, too.

In my recent struggle with a furness issue I learned That You can hire this firm with confidence. Tony and His lovely Wife display a rare business intelligence and are committed to running their Business with integrity plus. When something Comes up and your new to the area you start Flipping thru Yelp or others trying to figure out Who to call trying to read between the lines or Tell if writer is the the guys Mother in law.

I lucked out and called Tony Carter he sent out the Techs they Discovered my problem was not electrical but they referred "Absolute Comfort" who saved me 5500. With a different approach to the needed Repair recommended by another company. Smart businesses make smart referrals. Carter is my go to electrician from now on In Redding. The men sent to my house were Masked and observed distance measures Great! As a retired business man I'm proud When I see this kind of customer care, I think Tony & Co wrote the book! Good luck with whatever sends you on this search!

I inquired the other day about possibly hiring them for a small outlet project, and was turned down due to "heavy workloads." While I understand this place is popular and is backed up, if I was running a business I just wouldn't tell a potential client no and that you are to busy for them. I did explain that the work I was requesting (upgrading some outlets in the house to tampered resistant ones) could wait and didn't need to be done soon, but I was still turned down.

It just didn't sit well with me, as my wife and I both felt like we didn't matter to them. So I guess I won't be using this company in the future, which is unfortunate for them because I have some really large projects next year that will require a lot of electrical work. I will say that the owner seems like a very nice guy though and was quick to respond which I appreciated

As a local eight unit restaurant company, I have been impressed by Carter Electric's (Tony's) reasonable pricing, quality workmanship, and business ethics. Tony has been responsive and dependable on all projects over the years.

I have found Tony, of Carter Electric, to be a man of impeccable character willing to ensure that the job is done not only to code but to the customer's satisfaction. His attention to detail and quality of work are excellent and he is extremely responsive to the customer's needs.

A huge thank you to the Carter Electric crew for doing an amazing job installing a ceiling fan and heat lamps in our master bath. They were friendly and professional but most of all clean! Thank you so much!

Tony, the owner of Carter Electric, has provided service to several of my premier clients. I know that if I leave the job site that I can count on excellence in his portion of the project. Tony is also a man of integrity that I would trust with all future clients.

The 2 electricians that Carter's sent were friendly, courteous and professional. They were patient while they waited for our hot tub to arrive to make sure everything was set up properly. I felt they were efficient and I was pleased with their work.

I would not hesitate to contact Carter Electric for a bid. They bid a job for me to install a new electrical box plus a permit and was $1,000 under the two other bids I received. Hence, he was hired for the job and got it done quickly and professionally!

Our contractor highly recommended Tony for the electrical work we needed done for our back yard project. From our first contact with Tony to the completion of the job, it was a wonderful experience. Tony showed up as promised, came up with great solutions after listening to our ideas and the work was completed in a timely manner, with great quality of workmanship.

We remodeled our kitchen and were recommended by North Valley Lighting to contact Tony Carter. Tony was great and come right out to give us a bid. He was great at giving suggestion which might make us even happier with the electrical needs we had. Tony brought Billy out to introduce us and walk Billy throught my requests. We were THRILLED with the work Billy did on our kitchen.

His knowledge was great and he was a super nice guy. Billy also made a few suggestions which were VERY helpful and made the final result so much nicer. Whenever I had questions, Billy was happy to text or have me call him with the answers. He went over and beyond my expectations. We were so happy with Carter Electric we will have them do the work on our new business location. I HIGHLY recommend them.

These guys are great! They were on time, friendly and really knew what they were doing. I definitely recommend Carter Electric. Very reasonable prices, which made me wonder why I have been trying to do this stuff myself all these years?

Used Carter Electric on a referral for patio fan install. Great job. I called Tony back to do some outdoor and indoor receptacle installs. Just had him back a third time to install a 30 volt RV receptacle on the side of the garage. I know I can trust Tony to do everything just right. Conduits are bent to perfectly follow surfaces, holes and boxes are clean & straight. Quality work and fair prices. I highly recommend Carter Electric.
