    An electrician arrived to our home late 2 weeks ago (I rushed home from work only to sit around my house for 2 hours waiting), then the electrician didn't have time to do the job upon arrival. We had to reschedule for today, and they apologized for forgetting to put the appointment on the schedule. This is a huge problem, as we have another company here now to install cameras around our home, and we scheduled the date/time around Southern Electric's availability so that the two could coordinate their work today. Now I've lost money AND delayed my project TWICE because the other company will have to come back (for a THIRD ATTEMPT to do the job). Obviously for take #3 I will secure a different electrical company that I can rely on. Unbelievable. We used Southern Electrical several times (a few years ago) and were happy with them; however, I believe they changed ownership in this time which may explain the difference in service between now and prior years.

    $750 Haven't got the work done yet because of delay the parts haven't come in yet. I got a 10% discount because I am a Veteran. I took off from appointments to meet their schedule. The Rep said that they could at least come out and do some of the work, but it didn't happen. I will work with them. They are good Contractors. I can imagine they do great work. I hope that they can get to me soon.

FAQ

How does Southern Electrical Services determine pricing for electrical work?

We provide custom estimates based on the scope of your project, the materials needed, and the time required to complete the work safely and to code. During an initial assessment, our team evaluates what you need-whether it's wiring installation, panel repairs, or system maintenance-and breaks down the costs transparently so you know exactly what to expect before work begins. This upfront approach helps you make informed decisions about your electrical needs without surprise charges.

Are you licensed and insured to perform electrical work?

Southern Electrical Services maintains the proper licensing and insurance required to handle residential and commercial electrical projects in Louisiana. Verification of these credentials protects both you and your home, ensuring that all work meets local electrical codes and safety standards. Always ask to see proof of licensing and current insurance before hiring any electrician.

Can Southern Electrical Services handle specialized electrical work like thermal imaging and panel diagnostics?

We use advanced diagnostic tools, including thermal imaging, to identify electrical hot spots and potential hazards in your system before they become dangerous or costly problems. Our team handles everything from complex panel wiring and circuit repairs to preventive maintenance inspections that catch issues early. Whether you need routine maintenance or specialized troubleshooting, we have the equipment and expertise to diagnose and fix electrical problems accurately.

What should I expect regarding scheduling and arrival times for service calls?

Southern Electrical Services works with you to schedule appointments that fit your availability and minimize disruption to your day. When we arrive, our team assesses the extent of the problem, explains what needs to be fixed, how long it will take, and provides a clear cost breakdown before beginning work. Knowing in advance whether power will need to be shut off and for how long helps you plan accordingly and make necessary arrangements.

How does Southern Electrical Services handle cleanup and site restoration after completing electrical work?

We leave your home in the condition we found it, removing debris and materials from the work area so you don't have to deal with the mess. Our commitment to professionalism extends beyond the electrical work itself-we respect your space and ensure the job site is clean and organized when we finish. This attention to detail is part of delivering quality service that homeowners can trust.

Why should I hire a professional electrician instead of attempting electrical repairs myself?

Electrical work involves serious safety risks, including electrocution and fire hazards, if not done properly by someone with the right training and tools. A licensed electrician ensures your work meets local electrical codes and is completed safely the first time, protecting both your home and your family. We have the specialized knowledge and equipment to diagnose problems accurately and implement solutions that last, giving you peace of mind that your electrical system is functioning correctly.
