"Actually, I have utilized this company for all home needs. My newly installed HVAC had a hiccup. Micah showed with a cape with the company logo on his chest and ensured proper and long term functioning. He also ensured we knew each step of the way to resolve the issue."

"It went great. I have used Electric Solutions of Richmond three times thus far. I could not be any more pleased with the company. Joe (the electrician) is so easygoing and amazing to work with. It is great to be able to upgrade fixtures, fans, plugs, etc. in my older home knowing the work will be done right and at a cost that is more than fair. They are fast, efficient, and very affordable. I highly recommend this company for any electrical needs a homeowner might require. Cathy K"

"It went very well. The electrician, Danny, was excellent. When an opening in his schedule became available a day earlier than our planned appointment, he called to see if I wanted to take it. I found it much more convenient. As the company had requested, I had ordered and purchased the "fan" in advance. It was composed of parts that fit into the existing fan housing. Danny installed it, but found that style produced a rattling vibration which I did not want. He suggested a style that would perform better and cost only a little more. It included both the interior and exterior parts and dropped down from the roof into the attic. Although it was late in the day and extremely hot, he went to the hardware store, found the new type, and installed it. The cost of the job included the service and the new fan. He helped me pack up the other fan for return to the supplier and also gave me free advice about some unrelated wiring in the attic that was not up to code and would not pass inspection, if I had one in the future. The new fan has a thermostat and is working well."

"Wes was wonderful!  He arrived on time, after going to pick up the storm door, and went right to work.  He completed everything on my list perfectly.  Although the storm door needed to be returned due to a size issue, he returned it and after I order the right size he will pick it up and install it for me.  Needless to say, I was extremely pleased with Wes and his helper (sorry, I didn't get his name), and will not hesitate to use them again.

"First and foremost I must start this review by saying if you are looking for electrical work in your home you can stop your search now because Mr. Electric is the guy to use. I have had great experiences with people coming to my home before but Brian absolutely blew them all away with his top notch service. He is by far the most professional, curtious, friendly, honest, and hard working individual that I have ever used for work in my home. I left Brian a message after discovering an electrical issue in my home and not only did I get a call back within 15 minutes but due to an opening in his schedule he told me he could be at my home to diagnose my issue in 30 minutes!!! This was huge for me because I was worried my issue might be a fire hazard. After arriving and inspecting my home Brian not only diagnosed the issue he actually took me and showed me where my issue was coming from as well as showing me what it was doing and explaining why it was happening. Per my request he also inspected the rest of my home as well as under my house to see if I had any other issues. After his inspection we sat down and went over everything and he broke it down into things he thought I really needed and recommendations that I might want to do even if it was later on down the road. I want to make it’s very clear that he DID NOT ever act like a pushy sales person or try to over sell anything to me that I didn’t want to get done at that time. He layed everything out and gave a detailed explanation on why he thought each was a necessity or a recommendation plus gave me all my options and simply let me make my own choice based on his expert knowledge. I ended up choosing 3 things that I agreed needed to be done. When he came back (just 2 days later) to do the work I could not be happier with how things look and the quality of work!! MOST IMPORTANTLY above the already excellent service when he went to complete some work in the attic that he discovered during the inspection (that was not up to code and was a fire hazard) he was able to use just half the parts he thought he was going to need. Even though I had to agree to pay a specific price and I would have been none the wiser he told me that he didn’t have to use all the parts and cut my total bill by $140. That is honesty and good character at its finest. I would not only recommend Brian to friends and family but if I heard a complete stranger mention needing an electrician I would go out of my way just to recommend him. Thank you for the great experience Brian!! I will definitely use you for all my electrical needs now and in the future."

"The tech (Mr. Electric, Chesterfield, VA) made an initial visit to evaluate / check out the non-working attic fan. After it was determined that the 14 year old fan was not functioning, we were provided with an estimate of the replacement and other options. We selected the one on one replacement. After a mutual date was selected, Mr. Electric of Chesterfield came in and replaced the fan. He was very careful when he carried the ladder up to the 3rd floor and also wore booties as it was raining outside. The job was completed and area left clean. We will be testing the fan over the summer and we have a one year parts and labor warranty!"

"Two electricians came out to my house to install, test and complete the install of a Generac generator. Doug and Robert were punctual, professional , knowledgeable and still very personable. The install took a bit because we had to also engage a gas company to install propane tanks. The work was completed and it passed county inspection without any issue. We've used Davis and Green for other electrical needs and won't use anyone else. These folks are dependable, reliable and great to work with."

FAQs for attic or whole house fan installation projects in Richmond, VA

Installing an attic fan lowers attic temperatures and reduces moisture, protecting stored items and extending the life of roofing materials. It also prevents mold, mildew, and paint deterioration, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort in the home. This type of protection helps you avoid costly repairs in the future and maintains the integrity of your home.

Installing an attic fan may require multiple professionals. A roofing specialist or carpenter can create the vent and mount the fan securely, while a licensed electrician connects the system to the home's electrical supply. A dedicated attic fan installer may be able to tackle all of these areas themselves, so be sure to confirm what services they can provide. Hiring qualified professionals ensures the installation is safe and the attic fan operates reliably.

The lifespan of an attic fan depends on the type and how well it is maintained. Passive attic fans can last 40 to 50 years, while electric and solar models typically last 10 to 15 years. Regular cleaning and maintenance help ensure the fan operates reliably and safely. Ask your installation pro for their recommendations for ongoing maintenance and service to help your attic fan last for as long as possible.
