Initially, I utilized the Angi's app to see if I could have at least three contractors visit my home to provide me quote to install an EV charger. Sadly, I did not receive any calls from any of the contractors selected in the app. I decided to call one of them directly, the Universal rep was friendly and willing to set up my appointment with one of their dispatch reps. But first, I would have to put down a $150 deposit, which will be deducted off the cost of the job....if I choose them to do the job. I declined to set up the appt, because if I didn't like their quoted price, i don't get back my $150 deposit. Sound more like a crooked way to do business....especially if I'm simply asking for a quote.I called Haines Electric after doing a search for electric contractors in my area. The person I spoke with on the phone was friendly and advised my that Rich would give me a call regarding setting up the appointment for a quote.I received a call from Rich later that day, and I met him two days later without the need of put down a deposit. Rich reviewed the location I wanted the EV charger installed, took measurements, along with checking the capacity of the power panel. We talked about different options to get the electric line from the panel to the charger outside. After our meet ended, Rich said he will call me later in the day with the quote to have the job done. I heard back from Rich, and was satisfied with the quoted cost.On the day of installation, I met the two technicians from Haines Electric. They were both professional and gave off positive vibes. Once the work was done, I was completely blown away with their workmanship. In my mind... I was expecting to see holes in the drywall and an exterior brick wall needed some repair once the job was done. Instead, I have minimal drywall repair.... I can do myself and no brick work repair needed outside. The team duo, cleaned up and left the work area looking as if nothing was ever done. Again, I'm blown away with the workmanship and extremely satisfied with the installation.From this point on, Haines Electric will be my contractor choice for any electrical work needed in my home. I will also recommend them to any of my neighbors that require electrical work in their homes.Thank You Guys!!!Side note....One of my neighbors had his EV charger installed several months back by a different contractor. He was left with exterior brick work, and interior drywall work repairs needed after his installation was done. He did recommend his contractor to me, but I never called, instead I contacted the true professionals at Haines Electric.

Helen and I were thoroughly impressed and very appreciative of the prompt response we got to our request for help, the absolute professionalism of RJ in resolving the problem, and happy that we returned to the Haines Company for the work, because it is that same firm that put in the entire electrical system when our house was rebuilt in 2009. Thank you,Helen and Arnold Mintz

Every single time I've called them they are very accommodating. It's a family run business that cares about the work they do. I've used them multiple of times from cutting an electrical line that I didn't need anymore, to putting in a new electrical plug I needed, to even changing light bulbs over a stairwell that is dangerous. They've done it all! I highly recommend them!

Arrived on time, confirmed the work I wanted done and got started. The jobs were done quickly and efficiently. Haines Electric employees are always friendly and quite considerate of my home - wearing booties, spreading drop cloths and even cleaned the light fixture they were installing!

I needed a blinking ceiling fixture and a motion sensor light fixed. I was nervous until they arrived and put on booties before entering the house. Two gentlemen worked in unison and got the job done. They made sure we understood everything before they left. They even went an extra mile for us. To top it off, we received a thank you for our business note!

I’ve used Haines for multiple jobs in the house - EV charging setup, up leveling safety in the house, landscape lights. For each job, Haines was excellent - they were on time, very professional, the finished job was very well done and the overall after job service has been great. I can’t say the quoted prices are cheap - they were on the higher end of the quotes I received. Having said that, they were/are worth the money. Will definitely use them again.

My wife was so impressed with the professionalism and craftsmanship of Jacob. He was on time, knowledgeable, and was concerned about his workspace and cleaning the area. They even wore shoe coverings. The front office was very accommodating to our schedule and gave us a timely appointment. A very pleasant experience. -Tim L

Rich Haines just left and I'm wasting no time to post this review.When the Electrician I've used a few times essentially "ghosted" me, I did a google search and found Haines Electric.Based on the overwhelming positive reviews, I called to schedule an appt for some work to be done in the house.I made the call on Friday and an appt was scheduled for today (Monday) with a time window estimate. Over the phone, Rich was courteous and provided clear pricing.Monday morning, I received several texts to not only confirm the appt but then to let me know when Rich was on his way.Rich got here and the moment he walked inside, immediately put on protective booties over his shoes. In all the years of having service appts in my house, not one person has ever done that.I walked Rich around, showing him the areas to have work done. We once again went over the pricing and he got to work.Rich was personable, friendly and did not mind answering a few questions I had.Best of all, the work comes with a 3 year guarantee.Soon as I hit "post" I'm adding Haines Electric to my phone contacts. Thanks again, Rich!

There are many reasons why this family-owned business has been around for over fifty years: reliability, promptness, quality work for a reasonable fee, and cleanliness.I was particularly impressed by the care taken by the young man I hired to swap out a ceiling light fixture. He wore shoe covers and spread a dropcloth to avoid scratching my hardwood floor. I was also advised how to update a vintage fixture I plan to use elsewhere. I will definitely be using this company again.

Haines Electric has done numerous job for me over the years. They upgrading the electrical service to my home, ran all new wiring for a kitchen remodel (ceiling lights, outlets, and under-cabinet lighting) and a finished basement. Last spring Rich and RJ ran the electrical connections and hooked up the equipment for a swim/spa in the yard, and they have serviced my generator since 2015. The quality of their work is exceptional, the final cost is always the price quoted on the estimate, and they leave the job site spotless. I highly recommend Haines Electric

Expert Smart Home Setup and Planning

Save Money, Stay Safe and Save Time!

One of the major benefits of integrating smart home devices is the potential for long-term cost savings. Smart thermostats, for example, learn your schedule and adjust the temperature accordingly, which can result in significant energy savings.

Similarly, smart lighting systems can be programmed to turn off when rooms are unoccupied, reducing electricity usage. Even smart plugs and energy monitors provide insights into your consumption patterns, allowing you to make more informed decisions.

Smart Home Device Questions

Stay ahead of the curve with access to the most advanced smart home technologies and trends. From Nest and Ring to Arlo and beyond, we ensure you get the best systems available.

What is a smart home?

A smart home uses internet-connected devices to enable management and monitoring of various systems and appliances, such as lighting, security, and climate control.

This integration enhances convenience, security, and energy efficiency.

How do smart home devices save energy?

Smart home devices save energy by optimizing power usage. For example, smart thermostats adjust heating and cooling based on your schedule, while smart lights can turn off automatically when a room is unoccupied.

Can I install smart home devices myself?

Of course, many smart home devices are designed for DIY installation. Simply the follow the directions given by your manufacturer.

If you need help, professional installation fomr a company like ours ensures that devices are set up correctly and function seamlessly. Our experienced team can handle all aspects of installation, from setup to integration.

Are smart home devices compatible with any home?

Most smart home devices are designed to be compatible with existing home systems and infrastructure. However, factors like your home’s wiring, router, and network speed can influence device compatibility. Our experts can help assess your home and recommend suitable devices.

How secure are smart home devices?

Security is a top priority for smart home devices. Most devices use encryption and other security measures to protect your data. Regular updates and proper setup also enhance security. We ensure all devices are configured for maximum protection.

What happens if my internet goes down?

Many smart home devices will continue to operate locally via Bluetooth or other direct connections, but remote access (from somewhere other than home) and control will be limited. Some systems also offer automated routines that will still execute without an internet connection.

Can I control my smart home devices when I'm not at home?

Yes, one of the key benefits of smart home technology is the ability to control devices remotely using a smartphone app or computer. You can adjust settings, monitor security cameras, and more, no matter where you are.
