Stan and Joe did a great job. Wonderful personality, great workmanship and did a commendable job. I enjoyed having them fix my electrical issue correctly. It was a mess left by someone that didnt do a quality job. It was obviously done a good 10 years or more ago, but I feel it was a disaster waiting to happen. Again thank you to Richards Electrical! I will gladly refer and have you back in the future if I need plumbing or electrical done again....

Paul did a great job on making sure the installation was done perfectly. He was on time and personable. You can definitely tell that customer service is one of the companies highest priorities! Would not hesitate to recommend Paul, and Richards Plumbing as a whole!

Dallas and Robert did a great job diagnosing and repairing our electrical problem while being courteous and respectful. And they did it at a fair and reasonable price that was detailed prior to completion of their work. In addition, Gary did an excellent job diagnosing and fixing a plumbing problem. He was friendly during the whole process. Once again the work was completed timely and at a fair price.

Wow, Dallas Perkins is an outstanding electrician and found our electrical issue FAST! My experience with Dallas and other electricians from Richards is always exemplary. I am grateful when anyone takes the time to explain things to me that are "over my head" especially something so critical as electricity.

Dallas listened to all the information and problems we were having and set up a plan to fix it. He helped us get thru to a 0% loan for the work and we had him do it the same day.
Dallas took so much care in his work and he cleaned the entire area. Everything is working beautifully. It was a pleasure having Dallas of Richards Plumbing and Electrical do our work. Thank you Dallas! Job excellently done!!!

We met Kraig for a quotation of the work to be done and were impressed with his knowledge. Today, we were similarly impressed with Slava who actually replaced our gas water heater and expansion tank. Additionally, he replaced the main shut off valve to the house. He arrived when expected and was meticulous in his work. He checked and rechecked his work to be certain all was done properly. Even cleaned up after himself. We are very glad to support a locally owned business that takes pride in their work.

Dallas, in Electrical, is amazing! Thinks outside the box, smart, experienced and has a great personality! I look forward to when he comes out on a call because I can trust him and I know the job will be done right. No if's and's or but's. I could keep him employed for months, so much I still will be wanting him to do. Thanks so much!

WOW! Best plumber that weve ever had do work for us. We purchased a new dish washer and paid for installation. When it was delivered the guys were unable to connect it. We contacted Richards Plumbing who sent Paul out. He had the installation completed in no time. He also fixed a problem with our sink and noticed a leak that was causing damage to our cabinet. Would highly recommend this company and suggest you request Paul.
