What Our Customers Are Saying
Great experience! I received a prompt callback to schedule service, and the crew arrived on time. They went above and beyond in explaining the repairs and offering helpful recommendations. The work was completed efficiently, neatly, and without any issues. The pricing was very reasonable. Highly recommend!
I bought an electric car on a Thursday. They came on Monday and got the charger installed, which involved digging a trench to the garage. In less than a week I was all set up to charge my car. Everything was great and they did an awesome job.
They responded quickly, arrived on time, and were very professional throughout. The electricians carefully inspected our light and plug issue, explained the problem clearly, and fixed it safely and efficiently. Reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy service.
Fast response time for after hours and fixed the issue. Awesome and personable. 10/10 calling again.
I had 3-way switches, 4 GFI outlets, a ceiling vent and bathroom light installed. Jeff was my electrician and probably the best I've ever used. Very knowledgeable.
After the Conneautville tornado destroyed my meter box, Shalkham Electric & Construction Co. showed up the next day. By evening, my power and water were back on. The electricians were courteous and explained everything. I'm grateful for how they minimized the pain of my first disaster as a homeowner.
We hired Shalkham Electric because we wanted a garage heater put up. The day before they came I pulled the cord right out of my ceiling fan. We bought a new fan and they also installed it for us. I was very happy — the two men were polite and had great personalities. I would recommend this company to anyone!
Matthew was amazing — friendly, professional, easy to work with. His team completed the job efficiently, kept the area clean, and made sure everything was done safely. Pricing was very fair. It's refreshing to work with a company that truly cares about its customers. Highly Recommend!
We had two guys come to our home in Meadville to update our electrical meter and entrance box. The work was done professionally and efficiently. Thank you Matt for your quick response and having a great team. We would highly recommend this company.
Matthew is excellent to work with. He is focused, professional, skilled — and friendly. I highly recommend his services.
Fast and friendly service.
Steve came out to replace two security lights outside my house. He did an excellent and meticulous job from start to finish and cleaned up before he left. The owner Matthew communicated with me from the very beginning until the job was complete — greatly appreciated. I will most definitely call on them again.
Excellent experience! I purchased a Tesla and had to install a wall charger before I brought it home and was on a tight schedule. They got back to me right away to schedule a quote the next day, then installed the charger the following week. Did a great job! Highly recommend!
We had an electrical emergency and called this company. They cleared their entire day's schedule to accommodate us. After the job was done, they did a great job in a timely manner and charged us a very fair price.
