 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with the services Wire Wizards provides. I've had them out once before and then again today to replace a light in the eaves and address an issue in my kitchen. The technician, Justice, came prepped for everything that needed to be done. He walked me through the diagnostics and my options. I appreciate so much that he and Simon didn't try to upsell me on replacements I didn't really need at this time. Instead, they explained the next steps we would take should there be an issue in the future. I recommend them without hesitation and will use them for any future needs I have.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You cannot go wrong with Simon and his team- he took time last minute on a Saturday to come help us out with a project. He’s extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and fixed our issue within 30 minutes of arriving. If you ever have an electrical issue, just call Simon. He’s very good at his job, we cannot recommend him enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wish I could give Wire Wizards 6/5 stars. Absolutely the best I have felt with since living in the Springs. Simon was available at a moments notice to answer calls and questions. Fairly priced, and did a great job. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Simon was easy to work with and very fair. I got a few quotes for some work, and his pricing was the best I found. However, the icing on the cake was the quality. I assumed I would be patching drywall after, which is fine, but his crew did a great job of doing clean work with minimal damage. I don’t have to do any drywall work, and everything looks great. I had 2 new circuits run (EV charger and 220v oven line) and 3 outlets added to existing circuits. Will use them again for future electrical needs. -Monument, CO
