We hired Ampt Over Electric to replace some old, dead light fixtures in our kitchen. Jeff arrived on time and was very quick, efficient and professional! I would recommend them to anyone looking to get some electrical work done. Thank you for making our kitchen bright again!!
Jorden at Ampt Over Electric got us a great quote (cheapest of all the quotes) to replace our outdated electrical panel.Jeff removed our old panel and installed the new one. He was patient enough to explain to me what he was doing while he worked. Clearly knowledgeable and customer focused. He even helped me clear out my utilities room so the work could be done.We are excited to have Jeff back to replace out outdoor lights with LED’s next!
Jeff did an incredible job installing our hot tub. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely detail-oriented. The wiring was done cleanly and safely, and everything was organized in a way that showed real care and craftsmanship. He clearly knows his stuff and takes pride in doing the job right.It’s not easy finding tradespeople who show up on time, communicate clearly, and leave the site spotless — but Jeff checked every box. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing electrical work or hot tub installation. Solid work all around. Thanks again, Jeff!
Had Jeff from Ampt Over in to do a few jobs that were more than I could do myself. He was very professional, knowledgeable and an extreme pleasure to work with.
