Richard helped me with my own home and two rental homes. He installed new service in one home and rewired the other. He was honest in telling me what was needed and what would save me money. The local power company rep told me she was very impressed with his knowledge and the quality of his work. I highly recommend him.

In a nutshell, I highly recommend Richard Chaffe. He is my go-to Master Electrician in Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Charlotte County, FL.
Richard provides good communication, quality work, and dependable service. I have hired the electrical services of Richard Chaffe on a few different occasions over the past few years (one project is listed above) and I have never been disappointed.
As an absentee owner, I feel very lucky to have Richard as my electrician-he is reliable and trustworthy. I share this review for others who seek a qualified and reliable Master Electrician.
