Need some major electrical work done and wanted to see if anyone can vouch from first hand experience that they do good work? Saw a few reviews on Kudzu but all look too glowing to know if they're real. If you happen to know a reputable electrician, let me know. Thanks!

I don't know why any competent electrician would need or want to pay Mr Sparky's franchise fees. They most certainly pass the cost on to the consumer (you!).

Like any national franchise...there are probably good franchisees and bad franchisees, so the local Mr Sparky operator may or may not be okay....but like Orkin for bugs, et al....you will pay more.

If you truly need "major electrical work done", rather than something simple like a new circuit...I'd get at least three bids from local electrical contractors.

I'd recommend getting one of them from Nugent Electric (703-569-0345)...I've used him for years.
