What our customers say
Hear from our satisfied customers about their experience with us.
I own several commercial properties in the area and I have used MANY electricians to do work for me. C&A Inc. is by far the best by a country mile. If you're tired of babysitting your current electrician and you want to work with some real professionals then I suggest you give these guys a try, I am very happy I did.
EdwardCommercial Property Owner Constantin and his family are great to work with. They are responsive, honest and helpful. They helped me determine the most economical way to fix a botched job by a previous electrician that would satisfy DC code, but not cost an arm and a leg. I was grateful to find them through Consumer's Checkbook.
PatHome Owner, Silver Spring, MD We used C&A for electrical work involved in remodeling kitchen. They were everything one could hope for in a contractor - professional, very clear about what tasks they would be performing and the cost. We strongly recommend them. It was a pleasure working with them.
