Whitley Electric Services came out to correct an issue with two attic fans that weren’t running. He called ahead to work out a time for visiting, was prompt, knowledgeable, professional, and worked quickly to identify the issues with both fans, and remediate. He had all of the tools and components that he needed to both diagnose and repair the issues, including replacing one of the fans with one from his truck. That last bit alone shows how prepared he was, avoiding a trip to the store and being ready for any eventuality. Thank you to Whitley Electrical Services!
