Water Heater Installation and Replacement
Joe B came when he said he would (I like the email advance notice, helps!) Previously, he'd given me great advice on a new hot water heater. We made the choice. On installation, it worked out great. Even a handful of great advice outside of the hwh install.

Excellent work, very customer-friendly, explaining everything clearly and answering all questions. Clean, tidy, polite. Bobby replaced all my first-floor outlets with 3-pronged outlets, installed a whole-house surge protector, and replaced my doorbell system. Everything is working well and I feel much safer. Pricing seemed fair for all except the doorbell replacement, which seemed a bit overpriced.

Justin came when he was supposed to, he was a very nice man, he was very presentable, he inspected what needed to be done, explained what needed to be done to me & gave me a reasonable estimate, did the job, cleaned up and was on his way. Very painless :-)

We have used Nichols Electric since 2018 on numerous electrical upgrades and changes. Their technicians are not only knowledgeable but very courteous and professional. They listen, review what you ask of them and then give you a fair price. Jobs are done on time and never had to call them back to fix or finish a project. I highly recommend this company with the knowledge that you will not be scammed or taken advantage of.

Tech Mike Masters responded to our appointment on time, and completed three install in a timely manner. The installs were made very neat and exactly where and like we wanted them. Mike was at all times very professional and I communicated with him very easy concerning electrical issues that he explained clearly to me. I could tell that he enjoys doing his job. Thanks Mike and Nichols ....

I moved washer and dryer from basement to first floor bedroom closet. They installed electric outlets and washer plumbing outlets and exhaust outlet through outside wall. The Technicians were very friendly and did a wonderful job, very courteous and explained any questions . Would highly recommend them.

Sump Pump Repair or Replace
My sump pump failed and we were heading out of town the next day, appointments were booking for next day. Due to my situation they said they would have someone out later in the afternoon, received a call from Joe, one of their master plumbers at 10:30am saying he would arrive in 20 minutes. Joe was knowledgeable and provided all the information I needed to make an informed decision. Joe did a professional job and tested, works perfectly. Cleaned the work area and provided exceptional customer service. We are able to leave without worry.

Justin followed all procedures needed and checked with me frequently to be sure the work met my standards. He encountered some puzzles, including wiring done by a previous owner that was not to code, and he discussed alternatives. He obviously enjoys working on existing homes and making them work with today's technology. When one fixture required extra work, he gave an estimate and was able to work it into the day's job. And after two years, I finally have a safe, new stove installed.

I am very pleased with the services provided by Nichols Contracting. I called in the early morning for an emergency. The technician Tim arrived within 1-2 hours of my initial call. My real estate agent referred me to Nichols b/c another electrical contracting company was unable to take care of my electrical emergency. Tim has a calming demeanor which helps customers such as myself, who live alone with minimal social supports. And the work was performed quickly and efficiently. I would not hesitate to contact them again for professional contracting work.

Joe was here the day after we called. Nichols charged much less for the work than a previous estimate. Joe also explained everything thoroughly which which will save us repairs in the future.
