Client Voices

What Our Clients Say

"Thank you Chestnut Electric for saving the day! During a recent extended power outage that impacted my business they came out on short notice to help bridge power and adapted my electric panel for generator hookup... The service was courteous, professional and thorough. They maintained excellent communication during process and we were up and running within 4 hours."

— Destination Joy Travel

"After having 4 other electricians come quote the job, and never show up I turned to Chestnut. The technician (Jack) was a pleasure to deal with. He was timely and explained everything thoroughly. He covered everything in drop cloths, and even vacuumed when he was done. Fantastic job. Highly recommended!"

— Scott San Fan Andre

"Some of the nicest electricians we've ever worked with – courteous, friendly and informative – we only wish everyone we dealt with were as easy to work with as Chestnut Electric."

— Lesley R., Stamford, CT
