Charlie was very nice and professional. He was able to get everything done that I needed (it was a lot) and it took less time than I expected. I’m happy I found Dawson’s and have an electrician I can trust.
We lost power due to lightening strike and they had somebody come out early the next day. Bryant was upfront about everything that needed to be done and what the cost would be. He did a visual check of the house explaining all the things he saw and possible issues that may not be visible. He coordinated with Duke Power, the town inspector, and the HVAC technician and made sure everything went smoothly. With his help everything was back up and running that day!!!
Excellent
My technician was prompt and knowledgeable and careful with my household goods! He explained everything thoroughly. I can’t really compare prices because I did not shop around.
Excellent!
Came in, diagnosed the issue and repaired it.
Isaac really went above and beyond to help me in an emergency situation. He made sure to check every possible problem and was able to get our electricity up and running!
These guys are always fantastic. Fixed my problem, installed a fan - they even took the trash from the fan with them! It’s really the customer service that keeps me coming back though. Everyone I’ve ever dealt with at this company is nice, professional, honest!
Isaac was a very pleasant and easy technician to work with. He was very polite and professional. Isaac went over everything that was going to do before he did during the inspection that Dawson's died and they're service calls. When had them come to gives a quote on removing can lights on our front porch and installing ceiling fans. Isaac went over everything and had him install the fans the same day. I watched him work and enjoyed great conversations with him while he worked. I will be calling Dawson's for future work
Thank you, Allen, for the thoughtful review! We're glad to hear Isaac provided a pleasant, professional experience and took the time to clearly explain the electrical inspection and your options for removing the can lights and installing your new ceiling fans.

Charlie came out to assess my home for surge protection and did an absolutely outstanding job. After a through system evaluation, he installed two layers of defense for my electronics: first a Vortex Series R VR-120 whole home surge protector at the main breaker panel was installed and then a secondary point of use Vortex Series B VB1-60-4XP surge protector on my HVAC equipment. He was professional, highly knowledgeable, and took the time to verify that everything was operating perfectly before he left. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my electrical system and sensitive electronics are fully safeguarded. If you need electrical work done right, ask for Charlie.Highly recommended!
