My wife and I recently purchased our first home in Potomac, MD. It has a gorgeous view with a huge backyard, but unfortunately the yard itself is pretty, well, blah. Fortunately my wife has a green thumb, so she can do a lot to spruce the yard up with foliage and such, but since this is finally OUR home, we decided that we would like to do some custom lighting and water works.

Thus began our search for a good electrician in Potomac MD. Since we were new to the area, we decided to ask our neighbors who they recommended. We got some mixed feedback at first – don’t call these people; these Potomac electricians are okay, but they only do commercial electrical work; these electricians in Potomac hire contractors with no background screening; etc. It started to look like we would be doing this on our own until the gentleman four houses down recommended Certified Electrical Technologies, whom he felt were top-rate Potomac electricians. He said they have certified electricians, great prices, they do outdoor lighting, and they guarantee all their work for life. This sounded good to me, so I decided to dig a little deeper into this CET.

Sitting on the back porch with my laptop, I fired up my browser and ran a quick web search for “electrician Potomac MD”. It looked like this company, Certified Electrical Technologies, was at the top of the list and they had some really great reviews. I dug around on their website and found that they do background screenings on all of their employees and that each of their Potomac electricians was certified, licensed, and insured. They didn’t employ subcontractors and they had quick turnaround times for almost any job. I gave them a call.

They were able to send someone out the next morning and we went on a tour of the back yard and my wife and I shared with him the vision we had. The electrician Potomac MD from Potomac listened carefully, asking questions and taking copious notes of everything we told him we wanted to do. Then he made some suggestions and started laying out what sorts of things we would need to do; what kind of landscape lighting would look good and why, as well as where to put the landscape lights; how much wiring would need to be run, and where; what kinds of electrical outlets installed, etcetera .

He took us back through our yard and showed us all the different things we could do with it, incorporating our ideas and adding the experience of many years installing this kind of stuff in order to help us truly maximize the yard’s potential. He even gave us ideas for the porch, which didn’t need any electrical work, but his ideas would allow us to enjoy it even more when we were done. He didn’t treat us as customers; rather he shared our passion and enthusiasm as if he were an old friend of the family. That was the deciding factor on why we chose CET as our electrician Potomac MD.

He gave us a written estimate for the yard and then explained that when they started work, the certified electricians would also do a free home electrical safety assessment. That was great since we’d just bought the house, and while the pre-purchase home inspection hadn’t found any problems, it would be a nice piece of mind to have someone thorough and knowledgeable do a full assessment.

Two weeks later and we had a backyard that was gorgeous, with lighting that made it look like a park at night and fountains that gurgled so serenely I can spend hours out there just enjoying the sounds. We are so happy the folks at Certified Electrical Technologies were able to help us make that possible. They also gave us helpful tips on wiring and lighting for the new nursery we’ll be setting up shortly since we found out during the project that my wife is six weeks pregnant! Truly, you cannot ask for a better group of electricians in Potomac, MD than CET. Call them; you won’t be disappointed.
