Warren Y.
Added a 240v outlet in the garage for my welder. Straightforward job, they ran it from the panel clean as can be. Inspector passed it first visit which tells you something.

Had them install a couple new outlets in the home office and add a dedicated circuit for the AC unit. Clean work, passed inspection first try. Would call again.
