When it comes to electrical contractors, it is important to work with someone you can trust to do quality work, which is why I work with Haines Electric. They are meticulous and thorough, and their work is impeccable. You should not be shocked by my five star review!

Rich showed up on time, took the time to ask questions and look closely to diagnose the problem, and offered a safety suggestion without being pushy or trying hard to upsell. He explained everything clearly and completed the work quickly and cleanly. We were very pleased with the whole experience!

I called Haines Electric to change an outlet from three prong to four prong for my dryer. They were at my house when they said they would be and the guys did a very thorough job. I will definitely call Haines again for any electrical needs.

I have used Haines Electric many times over the years and they have always done a wonderful job. They are very professional, polite, upfront about pricing and prompt. Whether Rich, RJ or Mike are doing the work I am always sure that no matter what the problem they will pleasantly keep working until it is solved while keeping me up to date on the steps they are taking. There is never a mess when they leave and I have to say I love the red booties they put on their feet to keep my floors clean! Hands down the best all around contractor I have ever used.

Same day service. Very competent electrician who explained the repair options and costs fully. He was also able to easily do a repair that another electrician quoted me a very expensive and complex "repair" for. I trust E. H. Haines very much.

I recently hired Haines Electric for some electrical work in my home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Rich, RJ, and Mike were incredibly professional from start to finish, arriving on time and ready to work. The team maintained a clean workspace, ensuring that my home was left tidy after the job was completed. Their attention to detail and quality of work truly stood out. I highly recommend Haines Electric to anyone in need of electrical services!

Haines electric led by, Rich Haines, is a family ran business that makes you feel like you're part of the family. They recently came and added outside lighting and cameras to my house as well as updating my thermostat and a few other minor repairs and not only was the work perfectly completed but they were in and out quickly didn’t even know they were there and completely cleaned up the work. Coming home after they left and completed work you would never know anyone was in the house. Completely spotless. They even wear bottles to not track dirt. Highly recommend.

Rich and his team did a great job installing an EV charger and updating our electrical panel. They were professional throughout the whole process and did not upsell unnecessary work. They also kept their job site very clean. At the end they gave me a detailed walkthrough of all the work they completed and made sure everything was working properly. Very reasonable prices as well. Highly recommend their work and will definitely use them again for future electrical work.

Generator stopped working. Wouldn’t turn over. Changed oil, battery, plugs. Still not working. Called guy who installed it and he said it’s not electrical so he can’t do it. Called another guy who said it is more than 5 years old and they can’t get parts. Called third guy and he said he only does Generac and my engine is Vanguard/Briggs and Stratton from like 2013 after Sandy. Kept looking online and found Haines. Good reviews so I gave them a call. Very glad I did. They came on time, professional, courteous and honest! They found a spider egg in the gas line and that was it. No extra charges. Even tested it afterwards to make sure it came on when power went off. Rich and his assistant were great. Definitely give them a try.

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,

Frquently Asked Questions

Find answers to questions related to our business practice and general electrical repair questions.

Do you offer same-day service?

Yes, we do. Call us and we’ll send one of our staff members out as soon as possible.

How do you charge?

We charge by the job, which can save our customers money. That’s because no matter how long the job takes the price remains the same as what we quoted it to be.

Do you have Saturday hours and is there an extra charge for them?

Part of the way we value customer time is by providing Saturday hours (because customers have jobs during the week, too) and by not charging extra for them.

How much is an estimate?

Our estimates are FREE.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and financing by GE.

How long have you been in business?

Haines Electric is a family-owned and run business. This year marks our 38th year serving both homes and businesses.

Are you licensed, insured and bonded?

Yes

Why is it that my circuit breaker trips sometimes?

The circuit breaker can be tripping for a number of reasons— either it’s overloaded or shorting out. If this is happening often, it should be looked at because it’s a problem that won’t fix itself.

How do I know if my electrical system is safe?

You don’t. Everything in the house might be working perfectly and yet it might be unsafe. That’s why National Fire Protection Association, National Electric Code and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration all recommend having your electrical system checked once a year.

Would a Safety and Savings Plan cover a yearly inspection?

Absolutely. That is one of reasons we recommend the plan to our customers. The Safety and Savings Plan is a way to give you and your family piece of mind that your electrical system is safe and operating properly.

How does surge protection work?

Once the surge protector is in place and connected it will redirect surges to the ground and lessen the energy. The surge protection selected must have a UL rating on response time. A point to remember is that the greater the surge current rating, the longer the surge protector will last.

What is a GFI?

GFI is an abbreviation for ground fault interrupter. There are two kinds of GFIs, a receptacle type and a circuit breaker type. A GFI will monitor the current going through it and if it senses an imbalance it will trip out quickly and prevent the user from getting a shock. A defective appliance or piece of equipment could cause a ground fault. They should be installed in various locations as per the national electrical code. Some areas are as follows: bathrooms, kitchen counter tops, all outdoor areas, pool and hot tub equipment, spas and ponds, garages, and unfinished basements. This is truly a lifesaving device!
