Kemp Electric Services

Kemp has done electrical work in my house for nearly two years now on several separate occasions. The work is carefully done, thorough, and worry-​free. I have left him in the house alone, and asked him to work with very expensive chandeliers and never had a problem. His rates are reasonable too.
The best thing about Kemp is his talent and his care for the job. He’s got a clever solution nearly every time for tricky problems, including how to avoid putting a lot of holes in your walls, and he’s comfortable with very expensive antique fixtures, even those made overseas. Safety is job one with him. Once, after installing a very heavy fixture over a tub, he called me up and said he absolutely had to come over and check on me. He’d apparently had a nightmare that the fixture had fallen and he was pretty upset. He came over, checked the ceiling, saw that he’d braced the fixture already, and was relieved, but he put in more bracing anyway because he was already there. Hard to ask for better service than that. Later, I had many recessed lights installed, and Kemp designed an excellent lighting plan that looks fantastic installed. He knows what he’s doing.
The one thing I don’t like is that he is optimistic with his time estimates and sometimes other jobs get put ahead of mine if they are emergencies. The time management thing means that my job sometimes takes longer than anticipated and if a well pump breaks somewhere, he’s not here on my job. It’s good if you’re the guy with the broken well pump, but not if you’re the woman with a house full of drywall dust everywhere. Otherwise, there is nothing negative to say.
