Luke Electric, LLC

Luke Electric is fantastic. I phoned them on short-​notice twice and they responded quickly. The first visit involved replacing a defective circuit box. The electrician was knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything he’d done. The second call, Luke actually came. He is kind yet professional and also explained all of my options. I plan to continue using them for any electrical concerns at my home.

Despite having high hopes for Luke Electric when speaking with them during my home buying process, the actual experience of attempting to schedule them to do work was highly disappointing.
I called four weeks in advance to schedule a mid-​November appointment to come out and give a bid for some knob-​and-​tube upgrades. The scheduler was friendly, and we arranged a time on a Monday. Fast forward a month, and that Monday appointment comes and goes. I call them, and the scheduler says there is no record of the appointment on their calendar. But she manages to have Luke come out later that day. No big deal, scheduling snafus happen. Since he missed my original morning appointment, I had my parents meet him the afternoon he came out, as I had work commitments. They told me he kept asking how I was going to pay for the work — inquiring what I did for a living, and asking if they would be the ones to help me pay for it. Perhaps he assumed that a woman would be incapable of paying him on her own? Not sure, but his line of questioning was pretty inappropriate regardless.
After the appointment, Luke says he will give a bid in 24 – 48 hours, and will provide a range of bids for different levels of work being done (this is why I chose to have them come out in the first place; I like having options). I hadn’t heard anything after 72 hours so I sent an email. Got no reply. 1 week later I called. The receptionist said she’d contact Luke and would get back to me in the afternoon at the latest. Again, no reply. Now it’s been weeks since the original visit, and I haven’t had any of my calls or e-​mails returned. If you don’t want the business, fine, but at least give me the courtesy of a reply.
I have no idea why it should be so hard to give someone my business, especially something that’s likely to cost several thousand dollars. Ultimately I have no idea why they blew me off, but in case anyone from Luke Electric ever reads this, I’d suggest 1. not blowing off customers who are trying to pay for your services, and 2. not asking probing questions about their ability to pay — I wouldn’t be soliciting bids if I were incapable of paying the bill!

Replaced a blown fuse — came out quick, got it done, reasonable price.

They didn’t do actual work for us, but he returned my call to let me know they were booked out until August. But, only three electricians actually returned my call at all. So, this guy was nice enough to return the call even though he wasn’t making any money off it.
Kudos to these guys for that.

I had some weird electrical things happening after moving into an apartment in a very old building. I panicked and called several electricians. All of them said it’d be weeks until they could make the time to come out and that it would be an hour or two minimum charge even if nothing was wrong.
Luke said he could stop by the very next evening after he was done with his other appointments to assess the situation and that he wouldn’t even charge anything until he knew what needed to be done. He stuck to his word. Showed up early, eased my fears and didn’t charge a thing! He’ll be my first call when I do actually need any electrical work done.

We first met Luke eleven years ago after purchasing our 100 year old home. He was at the house quite a bit that first year, as we changed the lighting in almost every room of the house. The work involved changing existing fixtures, wiring for two chandeliers, inserting ceiling light boxes. We liked him so much he has been the only electrician we have used since.
Over the years he has continued to work on both the inside and the outside of the house. ALWAYS very easy to communicate with, a pleasure to be around, professional, and very, very skilled. His bids have been itemized and reasonable.
We are now concluding a kitchen remodel and Luke (and Jeremy) were the electricians we called. The job involved wiring for under cabinet lighting, replacing outlets and switches, installing new ceiling cans, wiring for a cook top vent, and making sense of all the wires that were cut during the demo.
I highly recommend them, we’ve used them a lot.

Jason from Luke Electric was fantastic! We bought an older home and out of all of the contractors that I’ve had to call, Jason was the most prompt to respond and most professional. He was on time to both our estimate appointment and the appointment to complete the work. For our estimate, he emailed a handful of clearly laid out options that made it easy to understand and easy to choose which route we wanted to go. They completed our projects quickly and were pleasant to be around/​talk to. We’d hire them again in a heartbeat!

A circuit went out causing us nearly a week without hot water!!! UG! I highly recommend Luke Electric. Luke himself came out to my house in an hour’s notice and fixed my old burned out circuit breaker quickly. He is friendly and honest. Good energy. He even cut me a discount on my breaker! He didn’t try to get me to do additional work and was just right to business.

We had some dimmers, outlets and lights put into our home by Jason from Luke Electric and could not be happier about the entire experience. They had the best quote of all 3 places we met with and also had the best ideas/​solutions.
Additionally Jason was very clear, quick and professional with his work and even followed up on a weekend day when we were having issues (the issue ended up being our own fault).
I plan on using Luke for any electrical issues we have in the future and would recommend them to everyone I know.

My wife thought that one of our switches was buzzing oddly and we arranged for Luke to come and look at it. He was very quick and efficient with his scheduling and was very communicative. Luke was very helpful. He was a good listener and has an easy manner and was able to explain things very easily to two non-​technical people. I felt that he went above and beyond and ran extra tests and gave us useful advice.
I’d certainly use Luke again. Ethical, reliable and friendly. What more would I need?

Jason and Luke did a complete rewire of our house, upgrading it from knob and tube wiring. It was a big job and we’re really happy with the job they did. Most of my interactions were with Jason, and he spent a lot of time upfront giving me different options for the work. While the work was being done, he communicated with me the entire time by phone or by e-​mail.
The house was left clean every day and any damage to the walls was patched and painted. I could definitely tell which days Jason wasn’t at the house though (he was there most of the time), because things weren’t left as orderly as when he was there, but then again I notice things most people don’t. What we really appreciated about Jason and Luke is that they were conscientious, patient, serious about doing their work well, and willing to make changes/​upgrades to make us happy. When the oven wasn’t working due to wiring issues, Luke came on a Sunday (labor day weekend) to fix the issue. They also made some additional upgrades at no extra cost to us.
The house feels safer and everything is more convenient now. It also looks better! I feel good about making future upgrades with Jason and Luke because no one knows our house better.
It’s nice to know that there are honest and hardworking people out there. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

I’ve had Luke Electric come out a couple of times now. I felt that I was listened to, and was given in depth suggestions. One of these suggestions was to put an outlet in my crawl space. I thought it was linda silly, but said yes anways because it didn’t cost me too much more. That outlet has come in so handy with a project under the house! Luke Electric was looking out for my future and not just trying to make a few extra dollars.
I Would totally recommend Luke Electric to everyone! On time, Good Rates, Fair product pricing, Cleans up & wears booties.
