CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

“Bryan and his family are amazing. Recently did a new 2 car garage, green house, chicken coop and renovation on our main home.. nothing was too big or too small. They went above and beyond for us. They are our go to electricians. We highly recommend them to all.”

NATALIE L.

“Panhandle Responded and checked out the project to be done. A week later two employees arrived and immediately started working on our project. We had RV outlets installed in and outside the garage. The employees were polite, friendly and ready to work. The rate was fair and work completed within 2 hours. I would use this company again in the future.”
