We first had Violet Ray install a new outlet on our deck and the two fellows who did the work were efficient and thorough. We then used them for two other jobs: under counter light fixture replacement and replacement of exhaust fans. In both instances one electrician completed all of the work in timely manner and made useful suggestions regarding replacement fixtures. He even corrected existing faulty switch wiring.

As I narrowed down my list of contractors to hire for my job I chatted with Violet Ray Electric for approximately 15 minutes. Billy, the owner, provided useful points to consider before upgrading an electrical panel. I felt like I received a valuable tutorial pertaining to residential electrical systems.
