Direct Current, Inc

We lost power early on a Saturday morning and George was there within 30 minutes of our call. He competently diagnosed the problem (which wound up being the power company's repair) and stayed with us to make sure we could explain all the things we needed to get them out quickly for line work. He took the time to explain everything going on in easy to follow expertise. We have used Direct Current before for scheduled work, which is always good, but their emergency response was shining.

If you need a electrician for household job, I would recommend Direct Current. I work with numerous vendors in my day job and George and his staff would top the list. They installed a sub panel for me including a trenched line through the yard. The job was a pleasure; done professionally and on-cost. April made scheduling easy and the work was neat and clean. As they are in the neighborhood, they are the epitome of shopping local, too! If you haven't dealt with a lot of vendors, here are a few recommendations: 1. Be clear what you want in advance. Write it down, with pictures, drawings, or other references. Direct Current will ensure the work it is up to code, but the specifics are up to you. 2. Be prepared to pay. Electricians are expensive and have student loans, continuing education

Direct Current is absolutely phenomenal. As a property management company with over 650 properties in the DMV, I can say that this company is a step above all else and they are our primary electricians. They are super responsive, reasonably priced, and I highly recommend them to anyone. Definitely the DMV's best kept secret!

I am a homeowner in Mclean, VA; Called Direct Current recently to schedule some work to include installing some ceiling fans--which required cutting drywall and rewiring--not just replacing fixtures. They sent Dennis Salmeron out and he worked straight almost all day. Incredibly professional and did a great job including clean up; Also, gave outstanding estimates on other work which were completely honest and fair and even suggested not doing a couple of things. I had several other well known companies give me estimates and do some work before, but will never use them again--I will only use Direct Current and hopefully Dennis for all future work. Thank you!

They answer the phone, seem courteous, still waiting for the estimator to return my calls concerning a proposal for commercial work. It's going on working days. Our first time calling the company due to the good reviews. We have moved on to other companies since time is money.
