A Transformation of Electrical Services
When we at Electric Avenue received a call from our customer, Ricardo L., he was facing significant challenges with his electrical project. After dealing with multiple electricians who failed to meet his standards, he reached out to us seeking a professional and reliable solution. This wasnât just about fixing wires; it was about integrity, professionalism, and finding a team that truly listened to his needs.
The Before: Navigating Frustrations
Ricardo had encountered a couple of electricians who not only fell short in terms of service but also lacked transparency. He shared his frustrations about dishonest practices where additional costs were presented without justification. Our team recognized that it was crucial to provide a genuine experience that not only met his expectations but also addressed the reliability that he was desperately seeking.
The Process: Expertise and Collaboration
Upon our arrival, Jack, one of our skilled electricians, assessed the site with a focus on aesthetics and functionality. We ensured that Ricardo felt involved in the process by offering an itemized quote detailing all project aspects. This level of transparency was a stark contrast to his previous experiences and set a positive tone for the project.
As we moved forward, we encountered the need for some modifications based on Ricardo's evolving vision of the installation. Our team was more than willing to adapt, demonstrating our commitment to customer satisfaction. We tackled the project with diligence and efficiency, finishing it in just one dayâa feat that exceeded Ricardo's expectations of a day and a half.
> âI had a couple of electricians come out and none displayed the professionalism from the employees at Electric Avenue. Jack was honest and personable... Highly recommended.â - Ricardo L.
The After: A Job Well Done
The final result was not just an electrical installation that met code requirements but a complete transformation of Ricardo's space that aligned perfectly with his vision. The positive energy and professionalism exhibited by our team not only fulfilled his electrical needs but also forged a memorable client experience.

Transforming a Bathroom with Ease
Transforming a Bathroom with Ease
At Electric Avenue, we thrive on delivering tailored electrical solutions that elevate both the functionality and aesthetics of homes across Portland, OR. Recently, we had the pleasure of partnering with Marissa C. for a bathroom renovation project, and we're excited to share the transformation journey and the challenges we overcame to achieve a sleek and functional result.
The Challenge: Complex Install
When Marissa first contacted our team, she was in the midst of a bathroom renovation and needed a few specific updates. Her main requests included the installation of a heated towel rackâan innovative feature that enhances comfort during chilly morningsâand the addition of two new electrical outlets. While the idea was straightforward, the execution posed challenges, particularly due to the selection of a towel rack that required a complicated installation.
In Marissa's words:
> "It was hard shopping for a towel rack that had the open bar side and would be seamless in the wall without cords, so sadly we were limited in our options and this meant choosing one that had a complicated install and terrible instructions..."
To add to the complexity, there was a requirement to hardwire the towel rack instead of leaving it plugged in, which demanded additional time and expertise. Our team was determined to make this work, ensuring that the end result met Marissa's expectations while maintaining the integrity of the renovation.
Our Approach: Skilled Execution
We kicked off the project with a thorough assessment of the bathroom layout and the specific requirements for the installations. It was crucial that we approached this with precision, given the complexities mentioned.
Here are the steps our skilled electricians took:
1. Detailed Planning: Understanding the layout and the electrical needs was essential for a seamless installation.
2. Careful Drywall Cutting: We prepared to cut the drywall cautiously, ensuring that the future patch-up would be manageable and unobtrusive.
3. Hardwiring the Towel Rack: We crafted a secure and compliant setup, incorporating additional bracing behind the towel rack to provide stability and longevity.
4. Installing New Outlets: Each outlet was placed thoughtfully to enhance accessibility and functionality while adhering to safety codes.
Throughout the project, we maintained open lines of communication with Marissa, updating her on progress and ensuring her vision was coming to life.
The Outcome: Satisfaction Delivered
Upon completion, the bathroom was transformed with the newly installed heated towel rack and the functional outlets that Marissa had envisioned. Although she noted that the drywall area was a bit rough due to the necessary cuts, she understood this was part of the process, especially as the electrical work was just the first phase of her bathroom renovation.
Marissa expressed her satisfaction with our work:
> "He worked fast and we appreciated the great communication and his ability to come out for a bid the same day and then again the following day to finish the job. Price was fair... Would hire again!"
At Electric Avenue, we strive to not only meet but exceed our clients' expectations. This project showcases our dedication to quality, customer service, and thorough craftsmanship in every aspect of our work.
Conclusion
We're proud to have transformed Marissaâs bathroom into a more functional and cozy space, and we look forward to helping more homeowners in Portland achieve their renovation dreams. If youâre considering electrical updates or any home improvements, donât hesitate to contact our team at Electric Avenue. Weâre here to power your project the right way!

Charming Dining Room Upgrade
Charming Dining Room Upgrade
At Electric Avenue, we love helping our clients refresh their homes and create spaces that are both beautiful and functional. Recently, we had the pleasure of transforming a client's dining room by replacing an outdated chandelier with a modern fan featuring a light fixture. Hereâs a closer look at the project and the journey from initial consultation to the final reveal.
Understanding the Client's Needs
When Gayle T. reached out to us, she had a specific vision. She wanted to replace her dining room chandelier, which didnât quite fit her needs, with a fan that provided both light and airflowâperfect for family gatherings. She had already purchased the fan online but needed professional help for the installation, particularly to ensure it was done safely and efficiently.
Our team is always quick to respond to service requests, and as soon as we received Gayle's inquiry, Jack promptly provided a bid for the project. Knowing the urgency of the situationâsince Gayleâs daughter was visiting soonâJack scheduled the installation for the very next day.
The Installation Process
On the day of the installation, our skilled electrician, Jose, arrived punctually and began by assessing the situation. He quickly determined that an additional part, a sturdy box, would be necessary to safely install the fan. Thankfully, we keep commonly needed parts on hand in our trucks, so Jose was able to proceed without any delays.
As Gayle noted in her review, âJose was exceptionally professional and personable. He was a delight to meet and have in our home.â This kind of feedback reinforces our commitment to not just delivering quality electrical services but also ensuring a pleasant experience for our clients.
In about two hours, the installation was complete. Jose carefully cleaned up any debris, making it seem as if we were never thereâexcept for the beautiful new fan now gracing Gayle's dining room.
The Aftermath: Beautiful Results
The final result was a stunning fan with a light fixture that not only improved the room's aesthetics but also added functionality, providing comfort during family dinners. Gayle expressed her satisfaction beautifully:
> âWe had our new, beautiful fan with a light which the whole family loves... and right on time for our daughter's visit! They will definitely be our first call next time we have another project.â
Itâs moments like these that make our work at Electric Avenue so rewarding. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail, commitment to quality, and excellent customer service.
Conclusion
