The guys came to give me a estimate, they were very professional, and the estimate was reasonable, l think I will have them do the job l just want to get the final estimate first.

Matt was super nice and extremely knowledgeable about my questions regarding what we were wanting. Very down to earth and most importantly to us he was not pushy in selling us what we needed. He suggested what he felt would be sufficient for us in our needs. Could not ask for any better. We will be using Lake James for this project. Thank you Matt for being a great guy.

Matt Hodge came out and gave us a price on different wattage on their generators. He explained everything so well that we had no problem picking the right one for us. Extremely nice man and we felt right at home with him. Talking to him was like talking to a friend and we had never met before today.

You can not find a better company to do business with. They go way beyond taking care that you are taken care of. So pleased with the work they have done for us.

I would give 10 stars if I could. I had an emergency, having awakened to a burning smell in my home. Greg and Hunter came out and found the problem, which was with a ceiling light/fan, and fixed it. I was extraordinarily grateful that Kristen was able to coordinate a rapid response. Kudos to all at Lake James Electric for running a fine organization.

I called Lake James Electric; the very next day Neil was at my house to discuss my generator needs and had a quote for me that afternoon. His installation crew was on time, professional and did excellent work. Just a few weeks after installation, I needed the generator during the first snow storm of January. When the tree fell across the power line, the generator came to life and provided me with all the power I needed. I’m glad I called Lake James Electric, and I’ll call again when I need an electrician.

Chris and Hunter installed our Generac Generator today at our home in Catawba, NC. Just wanted to let you know how much my wife and I appreciate them and their professionalism. I was very impressed with their electrical work, knowledge and patients with my questions. They explained everything I need to know about the unit, cleaned up afterwards and let me know next steps. By the way Danielle is awesome too!

Lake James Electric installed our generac several years ago. They monitor its performance and come yearly to service it. I always get a reminder about the service, it is scheduled to fit our calendar and I get a message that shows me the technician and tells me the time of arrival. The technicians have always friendly and knowledgeable. I have nothing but the highes praise for everyone I have worked with at Lake James Electric and highly recommend them if you need a generator installed or serviced.

Lake James Electric did a wonderful job installing can lights and outlets in our kitchen renovation. They went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with everything. I have referred them to several clients all who were just as satisfied as we were. Next on my list is having them install a generator!

Carla B.Google logo

Installed a total house generator. Everything they did from the first visit to the completion of the installation went great. Nice bunch of workers that were answering all my questions. Office staff were very helpful as well. Take Care and Stay Safe everyone

I have purchased two separate Cummins home standby generators from Lake James. They work really well and I have been pleased. They were very knowledgeable and easy to contact throughout the process. I also had a separate unrelated electrical issue that I thought might be an emergency. They had someone at my house within an hour and had me fixed the same day. I highly recommend them.

Landon W.Google logo

Everyone is great to work at LJE. they are very professional and they care about their customers. Chris came to my house& did great 👍 job

Shannon B.Google logo

Were timely and professional. Did a good job. Extremely expensive though. Serviced a generator by changing oil, filter and spark plug. They were here for 45 minutes. $650. That seems outrageous.

Phillip H.Google logo

I chose Lake James Electric because of their great reviews. The reviews were right on! From my initial phone call (Thanks Kristin!), making an appointment (got one sooner than later!), the technicians (Ben & Greg) totally rock! They ran into some complications but handled it all with knowledge & skill & patience. Thank you so much for making our home safety a priority!

Yesterday we had a GENERAC installed at our home. The 2 guys Chris and Hunter were the best. Soon as they arrrived they went to work in the blazing hot sun, did not hear them complain one word. We can recommend LAKE JAMES ELECT. and Chris and Hunter. Neil Farris came out -- no pressure to purchase. Could not ask for more efficient sales person, he listened to what we wanted and printed out what expence each item would cost. If you are in the market for a GENERAC - call Lake James Elec. J.

These are highly trained, knowledgeable and professional electricians whom I would entrust with any kind of electrical work. In addition to the crew, Neil also came over and provided a thorough assessment of my homes' electrical needs for upgrades and safety, then explained everything to me so I could understand how it all works. Team Ben and Hunter did a top-notch job installation and cleanup job! Everyone, including office staff, was very helpful and friendly, and I highly recommend Lake James Electric services! Thank you again!

Thank you Lake James Electric for a job well done, when it was very cold they worked hard and was very nice people to hire for the job, hopefully I will be ready next time power goes out. Once again Thanks for you hard work and nice attitude during the whole process. Good bunch of people

The crew were very skilled, knowledgable and efficient and took great pains to protect the floor and furniture from the drywall dust created by the large number of holes they had to cut in our ceiling. They also did such a clean job of cutting the holes that I should have no problems using the cut pieces to repair the holes. As always, if anyone in our neighborhood are in need of electrical work or generator servicing we would highly recommend Lake James Electric.

Greg and his assistant just finished and did a great job. Efficient and courteous and able to figure out a good solution to a somewhat tricky access and wiring problem. Thanks

Jim B.Google logo

New customer, requested generator service and got it scheduled and done on time within a week. Vast improvement over prior generator service contractor! I recommend LJE highly

Glenn M.Google logo

Always responsive to our needs! Today Chris adjusted the lo gas flow and our generator is running much smoother, tested for functions of generator and transfer switches and was all good! From the office staff(Danielle), the technicians(Chris and Hunter) to the owners (Neil and Kristen and the company mascot Graham) they are allgenuinely concerned with the equipment issues but very professional, friendly, and courteous. I highly recommend them for all of your electrical needs call Lake James Electric LLC!

I have had a Generac standby generator for approximately 16 years. It worked well until recently it began to give trouble. Neil Farris of Lake James Electric came and spent many hours working on the generator, often on the phone with Generac Tech Support, all to no avail. Multiple parts were replaced. It soon became obvious that the generator was unreliable and needed to be replaced. I ordered a new Cummins standby generator through Lake James Electric and they installed the new generator on 6/1/2021. All work was done swiftly and professionally with only a short disruption of power to the house. Neil Farris has personally made multiple trips to my house both trying to repair the old generator and make arrangement to install the new generator. I would certainly highly recommend consideration of Lake Jame Electric, LLC and Neil Farris for any work requiring an electrician. John Spiggle, M.D.

We highly recommend Lake James Electric. They installed the generator in our home and were professional, efficient and kind. They took care of all paperwork and kept us updated throughout the process. We look forward to calling on them again when we have solar installed.
