I am so please with the service we received from Callahan Electric! Shelly was able to get us scheduled right away. Marshall was prompt and provided us with a better solution than we had initially anticipated. He exceeded our expectations. Plus the price was fair. I will use them in the future!

Marshall from Callahan just left our home and I had to write a review immediately. We just purchased a home and had several outlets stop working (old home with old wiring). I had another electrician out last week that couldn't resolve the issue and stated it would be a much bigger and more expensive job.
I decided to get a second opinion and called Callahan. Marshall arrived early, was friendly, professional and resolved the problem within 15 minutes. I will definitely be contacting Callahan again with any future electrical needs. My only wish is that I had called them first. Thank you!

Excellent experience from scheduling to quoting to completion of the work. My generator interlock was installed safely and professionally. I'm happy to have chosen Callahan Electric and do not hesitate to recommend them. Thanks for the great job!

When we were asking around to replace our electrician who retired, Callahan Electric came highly recommended by more people we talked to than any other. The bid was reasonable, communication was clear, and both the office staff and person on site were friendly and professional. They accommodated our very specific requirements for installing a new induction range, and two other small jobs I'd been putting off and did not cut corners. I'm very happy with the work and this is now our go-to electrician for the foreseeable future.
Tip: Plan to book well in advance, because we are definitely not the only family that feels this way in SE.

Got them from a neighbors outstanding referral and they were spot on! What a lovely business to deal with, especially when under stress...like when the oven cant work! They went above and beyond to help me, and I cannot say enough about how lucky we are to have a business like this in our neighborhood.

Sam and Kurt added some outlets in our kitchen and a light fixture above the kitchen sink. They are a great team: timely, friendly, efficient and respectful. They did all the work under 3 hours and was very mindful about doing minimal cutting to our dry wall and ceiling.
Steve is the owner; he provided the initial bid for the work, and he was very professional and organized. Shelly who did the scheduling is a great communicator. Overall, it’s a very organized place you can trust. I’ll be using them for any future projects and recommending them to friends and neighbors.

I am a contractor who has worked with a lot of electricians over the years and I can confidently say that Steve and his team are some of the best that I've ever worked with. They have excellent communication which cuts out a lot of the hassle of scheduling etc. They are trustworthy and will work with you to save money rather than constantly trying to upsell or tack things on. And to top it all off, their prices are competitive and consistent. This level of competence and care is unfortunately rare these days. Thank you Steve, Shelly, and the rest of the Callahan service team for offering such quality service.

Great experience with Callahan adding a vehicle charger and some other electrical modifications. Estimator listened to what I wanted and the quote reflected exactly what I was asking for. Techs were respectful, skilled communicators and performed high quality work. Thanks!

I have worked with on two separate jobs now. Both crews were extremely helpful and knowledge. Their pricing was better than most quotes, and on both jobs they finished faster than anticipated and helped with some other random side projects. Quality has been superb and Steve was able to work me in within just a few days of calling. Highly recommend
