Carter’s Electric Service

We give Matt Carter five stars for his very professional and friendly service. We had had Matt out to the house twice to work on new ceiling lights during our remodel. He not only did a great job putting the lights in, he had several money saving tips and ideas that really helped us out. His prices are great and his work is even better. He is honest and gets the job done!

Matt is one professional, thorough and friendly electrician. He returned my call the same day and arranged a time and date to fix my electrical circuit panel problem.
His work is awesome and his prices are very reasonable. There was never any up selling of services or products. He is punctual and courteous.
I will call Matt for all my future electrical concerns and I highly recommend his services to anyone.
Thank you again Matt!

I called this business today, and my electrical problem was DIAGNOSED and SOLVED over the phone! At no cost to me! Yes, this guy could’ve come out and charged me like a lot of other electricians might have done, but he didn’t, and was very kind and patient walking me through the fix.
I think it’s important to give a shout out to those truly honest and helpful people out there … so here’s a big SHOUT OUT to Carter’s Electric!

I am giving Matt 5 starts because he is awesome! I highly recommend Matt
He is very professional, personable and polite. Matt contacted me to let me know that he was on his way. I had a small job for him & he worked me in that day.
His pricing for my job was very reasonable and after reading his reviews on Unilocal I decided to give him a try and I am glad I did.
I will definitely use him again.
Thanks Matt!

Matt was excellent in timely service and competitive bidding, affordable and thorough on his services. He contacted me to see how our remodel was going and to make sure I was satisfied. I was so impressed with his integrity and honesty, I called him out to install tv above fireplace and bathroom lighting. He also did vent kitchen, in counter microwave, and the rest of my appliances, next… under cabinet kitchen lights! :) No other electrician for our home.

Matt came in the repair an outlet in our laundry room and check over other discrepancies on the property. He was great and on his game. Matt knows what he is doing and I recommend to call him if you have any electrical issues. Thank you, Matt.

Excellent job! We’ve used Matt several times. He installed a light fixture, switch and a ceiling fan at our last house. At our current house, we called him to install ceiling fans in six different rooms, including all the wiring.
The prices have been very reasonable. We got several bids for the ceiling fans and Matt’s was very competitive.
Most recently we had him install a new LED lighting fixture where there wasn’t one before in the shower. He also installed two LED security lights on the side and back of the garage. They both look great and work great!
He is very personable, knowledgable and methodical. I have great confidence in his work!

Matt did great work fixing and updating our kitchen lights.
He came by the same day I spoke with him to check out the work we wanted done, and we discussed different lighting options. He is very knowledgeable about the way lighting works in different rooms and advised us on the best options for our particular space. He even fixed one of our pendant lights while he was there providing the estimate (for free, thank you!)
Coordination was easy and quick. He replaced our lighting units with «canned» lights (didn’t know what that term was prior to this). We love it!

I contacted Matt through his website and he emailed me back in a reasonable amount of time. The reason I am not impressed is that he wanted to give me an estimate over the phone, which is ridiculous.
When I told him I decided to go with someone who would do an in-​home estimate. He responded by saying that most people seem to prefer a phone estimate because everyone is busy. Not sure I believe that. Too me it seems like a way to «estimate» low and then up the price once the job has been started. Just my opinion.
I also noticed that he is one of the non-​recommended reviews on Unilocal.Really?! Review your own business. Just a little sketchy.

All out amazing experience today. He came out, knew what was wrong and fixed our issues without up selling us (which we honestly expected to to be upsold due to that happening in nearly every other business). We will be using him again when we remodel our house soon. I feel secure knowing our electricity issues are fixed and that we have an electrician we can trust.

I would highly recommend Carter’s Electric Service — Matt was extremely knowledgeable, professional, conscientious and friendly. His prices are reasonable. I first called him for a possible emergency — weird smell coming out of an electrical outlet. He was able to come out quickly that day and found that it was not an electical problem — but rather a rodent. Yuck! Anyway as he was out that day I talked to him about updating and adding some outdoor lighting — he offered lots of ideas and sent me an estimate that same day. He came out yesterday and completed all of the work as promised — even saving me money by taking down one of the old light fixtures so I could paint it and putting it back up. It looks like new. Very satisfied customer — would definitely use again.

Like anyone else with an electrical issue, I was terrified at the expense I was about to incur. I called a total of six electricians that represented different companies to try to get the best possible quote –without sacrificing quality of course. The last phone call I made was to Matt. He was the only electrician that asked me for details, and even offered a little bit of trouble shooting over the phone to make sure I didn’t spend money on a visitation fee. I could tell that he was a honest person and he really didn’t want to take advantage of an easy situation. He arrived at my place and was extremely easy to work with. My husband and I could tell that this wasn’t his first rodeo. I am nosy so I asked, and he’s been an electrician for
20+ years. He surpassed his duties as a standard electrician and looked at a few other things to help just because he is a nice guy. While working on our electrical problem, he explained what he was doing and even showed us the corrosion that prompted our quest in the first place. Matt was a blessing to work with and was MORE than generous with his pricing. I would recommend him to any friends and family members and would stand by his work. Thank you Matt!

Professional, knowledgeable, punctual and fair. Matt did an outstanding job and explained everything to me as he was doing it. He literally saved us thousands of dollars by recovering and refinishing our bus board. He could have just replaced the entire unit instead of going thru all the trouble that he did. I will definitely use his company again and refer him to all my friends. Thanks Matt for your emergency response.

Outstanding electrician! He installed and wired ceiling fans and lighting in five rooms — we have used Matt for outside as well. He fixed the sensors and landscape lighting. Trustworthy, expert electrician, exceptional service and reasonably priced. None better!

Great service. Was able to make it out to our house very quickly on a Saturday afternoon. He also had great pricing. Will be using him again if anything else comes up

Matt does an outstanding job. He thoroughly checked all my problem electrical concerns and then provided a detailed quote.

When we moved into our home… goodness! The main chandelier in our dining room was hideous! It was bright yellow gold and so dated. So when we finally bought a nice, new brushed nickel one… we were anxious to get it up there. The problem: our 20 foot ceiling. hmmm… Neither my husband nor I was gonna dare climb a ladder up there… so I combed Craigslist looking for someone who could install it. Stumbled across Carters Electric. He quoted me about $ 200… which I honestly don’t know if it was a good or bad price… I just knew I needed to get it done and unfortunately, I wasn’t very diligent on Unilocal yet. He charged $ 212.50 for the whole job… which included the huge ladder he had to rent and his labor for the job. I must admit… that ladder was huge. But he got up there and swapped the chandeliers quickly and it looks fabulous. We have some other lights in the house that need to be changed out someday when we have the $$ to buy replacements… not sure I would use them again until I did my Unilocal research this next time. I’d probably also wait until we had all the tall lighting fixtures bought and ready this time so that it may be cheaper to do all at once.
