Raul runs a tight operation. His pricing is fair (I obtained several bids), and his work is excellent (we passed the final inspection on the first attempt). Most importantly, he was responsive and communicative. He showed up when he said he would show up, delivered on the work we agreed upon without adding costs, and tidied everything back to the state he found it in. He installed an EV Charger for us in the garage. He worked with me to install it in a way that would be least visually disruptive and also most cost-effective to get from our garage to the main panel. He did not dismiss my concerns about aesthetics but rather validated them and said, "You'll be looking at it every day, so the best thing will be to do what makes you happy." Still, he found a cost-effective solution and did not try to oversell me on unnecessary bells and whistles. You might find someone slightly less expensive, but you'll lose that in the time required to chase them down and get the work done properly on the first go. If you want a fair price on the first quote, dependable responsiveness, clear and friendly communication, and licensed quality work done right, do yourself a favor and reach out to Raul at WAR for your electrical needs.
