We had a ceiling fan that we could not wire ourselves. We called 3 electricians that either ignored us or couldn’t come for weeks. I called Live Wire and the owner JoeDan came out in less than 20 minutes and got everything up and running within the hour! He was very courteous and efficient. We couldn’t be happier with Live Wire. They are our go-to electricians from now on.

double tapped our breaker box during some remodel work and we didn't find out until we went to sell our home. It cost us another $2000 to correct
