Satisfied customers!

Jim did a really great job for us! The recessed lights he wired up in the living room just sparkle and we could not be happier. He also did excellent work in our garage and made sure to replace as much drywall as possible to cut down on our repairs. We would hire him again!

Today we came out your residence to assess issues you have been experiencing within your homes electrical system. When we arrived on site we discussed which areas of the home were being affected as well as how often, in which you informed us the dining receptacle (vacuum cleaner used here frequently), the back living room (where internet is) and garage. During our visit we performed our visual assessment on the homes electrical systems to ensure all is in good working order as well as no issues were present at our time of visit. We inspected the recently replaced panels; checking for proper voltages and connections, as well as spot checking the areas of the affected loss of power. At this time we found the electrical system to be in great condition, but the living room circuit has a lot of devices installed on it; living room outlets, lights, hall lights, bath lights, laundry lights, garage lights and door openers. Where it is installed on an arc fault breaker the circuit could have tr

Customer states second floor unit was not heating this morning or blowing any air at all. Thermostat showed heat on, but there was no heat. Upon arrival, customer informed me that he turned the furnace off and then back on, and the heat works now. This indicates the furnace was likely in some type of lockout. I was able to recall the previous three faults on the furnace. The last three faults from most recent to least were: -7 red flashes indicating’ failed to light burners’ -4 red flashes indicating’ airflow problem or open fuse’ -3 red flashes indicating’ vent or termination problem’ I observed operation throughout multiple power cycles. Tested gas valve, ignition, heat rise, and flame sensor. The burners appear clean with no impingement at the transfers more otherwise. Gas pressures are properly set at low and high stage. Flame sensor is reading 2.3 mA which is within healthy range. Heat rise on both low and high fire were between 22 and 35° which is very much on the lower end of

The homeowner called requesting information on installing hookups for a portable generator. Upon arrival, I met with the homeowner and discussed what they were looking to have installed, and during my evaluation I determined that the exterior main shut off did not have any available breaker spaces to safely accommodate a generator connection. I explained the available options, which included installing a portable transfer switch with an exterior generator inlet, installing a secondary main breaker in the sub-panel with an interlock kit, or replacing the exterior main service with a panel that would accept additional breakers to meet safety and code requirements. No work was performed at this time, as the homeowner chose not to move forward with any of the solutions designed and discussed during today’s visit. The homeowner was grateful for the information provided and stated they would consider their options for a future installation. Thank you for choosing Dawson’s Electric and Air.

Today I came out to your home to assess an issue with the air handler wiring that had melted inside the unit. Upon arrival, we discussed the current concerns, and you explained that the home had smelled like smoke, which led you to have your HVAC technician inspect the system. During that inspection, a melted electrical connection was discovered inside the air handler, prompting today’s visit. With your approval, I performed a full visual assessment of your home’s electrical system to ensure it was safe to operate and service. This included inspecting the electrical panels, grounding system, safety components, and the crawl space. During the evaluation, several serious safety issues were identified and brought to your attention. The emergency heat strip wiring was found to be undersized, and the wire nuts used were too small for the conductor size. The air handler is equipped with a 10,000-watt heat strip, yet it was supplied with #8 Romex, which is only rated for 40 amps, creating a

Today I came out to your home to provide a quote for your kitchen remodel. Upon arrival, we discussed the scope of changes you are planning for the kitchen and how those updates may impact the existing electrical system. With your approval, I performed a visual assessment of the kitchen as well as your home’s electrical service. This included inspecting the electrical panels, grounding system, safety components, and the existing circuits serving the kitchen to ensure they can safely support the proposed remodel. During the evaluation, I brought several important electrical and safety considerations to your attention. These included potential breaker modifications, the need for new dedicated circuits to properly support modern kitchen appliances, and upgrading the grounding system where necessary to improve overall system safety. We also discussed adding GFCI protection (Shock Guard Protection) in all required kitchen areas to reduce the risk of electrical shock and ensure code complia

Today we came to your home to review the rear yard solar panels that you are interested in connecting to your home’s electrical system. These panels are designed as a plug-in style solar system. After evaluating the setup and consulting with our management team, we will be gathering additional information to ensure that this installation can be completed safely and correctly. Our goal is to verify that the system can be safely connected through a standard 120-volt outlet without creating any risk to your home’s electrical system or causing potential backfeeding to the utility service in the event of a power outage. Because this type of installation is new to us, we want to make sure we move forward with full confidence in safety and code compliance. We will continue researching the necessary information and will be back in touch with you as soon as we confirm whether we can safely perform this installation. Thank you for your patience and for allowing us the time to ensure this proje

Today you called us to your home to address the garage coach lights, the kitchen island receptacles, and the front left porch receptacle. We performed a full diagnostic on these items and found that the GFCI located under the kitchen island countertop was not functioning properly. We were able to replace it today with a new 20-amp GFCI to restore proper operation and ensure correct protection for the connected receptacles. The front porch receptacle was functioning when tested, however it was not weatherproof and showed signs of corrosion. We replaced it with a new weatherproof receptacle and an in-use weatherproof cover to ensure long-term protection. As for the garage coach lights, we verified that the power is working correctly. The fixtures themselves appear to be aging and malfunctioning, as we experienced consistent flickering during testing. We were able to temporarily restore operation while on site, but we cannot guarantee how long they will continue to function. We informed

Today I came out to your home to assess the HVAC system tripping its breaker. Upon arrival, we discussed how often the issue has been occurring and whether there were any other electrical concerns present. You explained that the home was recently purchased and that you are planning to move in within the next couple of weeks. With your approval, I performed a comprehensive visual assessment of your home’s electrical system, including the interior electrical panels, grounding and bonding systems, safety equipment, outdoor meter space and meter base, and the crawl space. During this evaluation, several significant safety concerns were identified that impact both system reliability and overall household safety. The furnace was found to be installed on a GFCI breaker (Shock Guard Protection) due to previous modifications where the dedicated furnace circuit was extended to supply receptacles for condensate pumps and air purifiers. This configuration can contribute to nuisance tripping and i

Today I came out to your residence to discuss plans for your upcoming kitchen remodel as well as proposed modifications within your main bathroom. During our visit, we reviewed the overall layout, planned wiring changes, appliance upgrades, and lighting design for the kitchen. We also discussed updates to the bathroom lighting and the addition of an exhaust fan to improve ventilation and overall comfort. As part of the visit, I evaluated your home’s electrical system to ensure the existing wiring could be safely modified and that additional circuits could be added where needed to support the remodel. This included reviewing the capacity of the system and identifying any considerations that would need to be addressed to meet current electrical codes and safety standards. All necessary information was gathered so solutions could be properly designed and reviewed with management.
