    I could not be happier with the work, Mason, completed at our home recently. He was very friendly and easy to talk with along with being extremely dedicated. I appreciated his taking the time toexplain the projects he was working on. Thanks to Mason, Calkins Electric LLC is now our newservice provider!

    Calkins Electric replaced 5 defective exterior light fixtures on our home that failed under warranty due to manufacturer’s defect. The Calkins crew led by Amy completed the work flawlessly and efficiently. It was a pleasure doing business with them. We’ll definitely reach out to them for our future projects.

    Professional, reasonably priced, and excellent service and advice. Aimee not only provided expert level service but she also patiently answered all of our questions, with a personable approach. Will keep coming back to Calkins for all our electrical needs.

    I needed a new electrician since I’m new to Waterford .I gave Calkins Electric a call & spoke with Chris because I was having ongoing issues with the wires of my outdoor camera.He was able to quote me a great price for the visit, kept in contact with me by text and was actually here within a few hours,(not days later)and he was able to fix the problem pretty quickly.He was pleasant, knowledgeable and was here when he said he’d be here.All those things are important to me!! If those things are important to you, give them a call.Calkins Electric will be my electrician for all my electrical needs going forward.

    The crew showed up on time and got right to work. They were very professional and friendly. We are happy with the work. They were done early. Just one thing, though. There was a can of Scotchkote adhesive left in the driveway that I ran over with my tire. No damage to the tire but there was a mess to clean up. Other than that, no complaints.

    We are very happy with the work done by Calkins Electric. They installed a new bathroom light and cleaned up afterwards. We highly recommend them and look forward to hiring them in the future.

    I will go nowhere else!!I had an electrical emergency in my home that required immediate attention and called Chris. He was there right away and did excellent work.When I filed a claim with my insurance company he also handled it immediately and professionally.Everything far exceeded my expectations.He has the best team in business!Again, I will go nowhere else!

  • Review 8 (2024-10-26 - Rating: 5)

    Timely, professional, polite and did exactly what i needed. They did not make any marks or holes in the walls and cleaned up after themselves. I would definitely recommend and use them again in the future.

  • Review 9 (2024-09-15 - Rating: 5)

    Calkins Electric was able to fit me in the same week I called for a non-urgent circuit upgrade. Aimee did good and efficient work. Communication with the Calkins dispatcher was a bit rough day of the service trying to work out timing, but the job got done in the end. Would use Calkins again.

  • Review 10 (2024-09-06 - Rating: 5)

    I called 4 electricians and of the 4, Chris was the only to answer the phone directly. One other called back quickly. He got a crew to my house as promised that week. I had numerous electrical issues and the electrician and her assistant did a great job; I am completely satisfied.

    Awesome job adding lights with dimmer to our new deck. We always use Calkins, and will always recommend them! Shout out to Mason for not complaining once about my annoying dog getting in his way 😉

  • Review 12 (2024-08-19 - Rating: 5)

    Ive used Calkins for a couple of jobs in ny home. Very professional service, clear explanations, good troubleshooting, listened to what we needed. Would definitely use them again.

  • Review 13 (2024-08-07 - Rating: 5)

    Amy did a great job troubleshooting our doorbell and came up with the problem and solved it. Highly recommended. We will definitely call Calkins when needed again

  • Review 14 (2022-08-02 - Rating: 5)

    I called to get two outlets installed. I filled out the online request and they were here the following afternoon. They gave me my options and told me what the fastest and cheapest way was, while still doing it all properly. They worked fast and cleaned up after themselves. They ran into some difficulty on one outlet but figured out a way to still make it all work out.

  • Review 15 (2024-08-31 - Rating: 5)

    Very pleased with the work done. Professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely use for future projects.Highly recommend this company

  • Review 16 (2024-04-04 - Rating: 5)

    Caulkins Electric is one of the most professional electrical contractors out there. They are quick to respond in an emergency; and even on a holiday weekend. They are polite, respectful, thorough and very knowledgeable. I have some real problems in the home I purchased and they are assisting me in unwinding a big mess. They explain everything they are doing and pay attention to detail. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for an electrician. You will not be disappointed.

  • Review 17 (2024-06-04 - Rating: 5)

    Calkins Electric is our go-to electricians. Fast scheduling, very nice and skilled electricians, reasonable prices, and a can-do attitude. Weve worked with other electricians who spent all their time telling you why they couldnt do something -- Calkins problems solves and figures out how they can. We cant speak highly enough of their work.

  • Review 18 (2024-01-25 - Rating: 5)

    I highly recommend Calkins!! Very friendly, quick response, and very little wait time for scheduling. Chris and team did everything to accommodate my work schedule and arrived on time for the multiple jobs they did in my home and are very professional. They walked through everything, pricing was more than fair and simply laid out, so I knew exactly what I was paying for. At minimum call Calkins and get a quote, very knowledgeable team.

    Highly recommend Calkins Electric LLC; they do great work and I will be hiring them again for future jobs. Chris and Amy were both friendly and professional while quickly and efficiently finding the root of my electrical problem. They came to look at it on very short notice, and I could not be more grateful for their expediency. Thank you guys!

    This is an amazing company. They went above and beyond to help me with a complete install for a stackable washer and dryer. The owner of the company met with another contractor to support them in correctly installing the plumbing. So grateful that there are still honest businesses out there.

    Great and reliable service as usual from Chris and the folks at Calkins Electric! They came when they said they would be there (which is a big plus these days) and quickly and efficiently installed the new landscaping fixture that lights up our sidewalk stairs. Highly recommend them and their services!

  • Review 26 (2021-06-25 - Rating: 5)

    Great experience working with Chris and his team. We recently purchased a very old home in New London while living in South Florida. We had to coordinate everything with Chris remotely, but that was easy. Despite the distance, we were able to have our projects completed on time. Were looking forward to seeing the work in person when we move! Thank you Chris!

  • Review 30 (2020-01-27 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing service. I contacted Chris on a Saturday night and he immediately answered, accurately assessed the situation, and promptly responded to my house on Monday morning. He identified that our electrical service provider was responsible for the issue and even called them to request service on our behalf. Will definitely use this company in the future!

  • Review 31 (2021-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    I had my family visiting. 7 members including three children, sleeping on three levels. I hadn’t seen them in a year. One night and several times after, I smelled a burning smell. Total panic. Chris came three days in a row. He found the problem, repaired outlets and installed a full house fire/carbon monoxide system. Best money I’ve spent in a long time. I enjoyed the rest of the visit with my anxiety level at an all time low.

  • Review 37 (2021-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    After using a certain oil company to repair my boiler/thermostat on the coldest day of the year so far, the boiler was still not working satisfactorily. Chris came out when no one else would to help me get my heat running again just before a snow storm. Truly good people.

  • Review 54 (2023-02-18 - Rating: 5)

    A couple months ago Calkins installed a generator hook up for us. They also wired an Italian made chimney fan which required them to work at the very peak of my 2 1/2 story house. First time I ever used them. The experience was GREAT. Quick response time. The estimate was spot on. This company is absolutely dependable. An even more awesome example of Calkins service is... today (months later on the weekend) I texted Chris a general question about basic electrical stuff and he answered within 15 minutes!

  • Review 55 (2022-10-07 - Rating: 5)

    We had a small electrical emergency that required immediate attention from an electrician. With a 6 day old newborn I was definitely in panic mode. I called Calkins electric and they immediately answered and were at my house within an hour to address the situation. Beyond happy with their work and professionalism. Thank you!
