Your staff need to learn how to drive. Unsafe and causing a road hazard to everyone around them.

Very inconsiderate drivers on the road. Do these guys need cdls? If they don't, they need to retake a drivers Ed course. Not allowing people in and out of lanes and driving and unsafe speeds both fast and slow. This was observed in Massachusetts after the snow storm

Critical: Professionalism Just watched one of their bucket trucks run two stop signs on Oak street in downtown Chattanooga while speeding. No regard for anything or anyone around. After the incident on hwy58 one would think that driver safety would be paramount. I'm sure their work is impeccable, their driving needs work.

These men are working so hard in this Louisiana heat and humidity. Thanks to them, our electricity was back on within days of Hurricane Ida causing destruction to our electrical service. Thanks again for helping us get back on our feet.

I live on burnt hickory road in cartersville georgia. Had 3 power poles fall in a storm and they have worked there heart out from about 8pm to 3am to restore power. Wonderful hard working company!

I live in south Oklahoma City. Your crews sent here to Oklahoma to restore power is awesome and amazing. I watched them work tirelessly to provide power to my neighborhood. So thank you, thank you, thank you. This morning I got to have coffee in my own home thanks to their efforts. I have had no power since October 26, so I am so very grateful for them. I pray now for their safe return to their own homes and families. With extreme gratitude. Nannette Fanning.

SWLA was hit hard by Hurricane Laura recently and these men were here the following day! They have been working above and beyond in extreme heat while having to travel 4 hours every day round trip to be in a hotel with electricity. Couldn't have asked for more caring people! They even cared about my 2 year old who become obsessed with watching them.

We have received power after 11 days and they are still working in the extreme heat to continue to rebuild what has been destroyed. So truly blessed with how professional and hard working they are!

Hey! You guys were working in metro ATL one of your crews came to my house, parked in my driveway and swapped out a transformer on a power pole. Both of the guys were awesome. So friendly that my Daughter and I watched when they were doing and even asked a few questions. Great couple of guys and the transformer swap took less than 20 minutes.

Service Electric of Chattanooga is a bad citizen company. The utter disregard of the Service Electric of Chattanooga crews for the neighborhoods they work in, the disrespect by employees shown to residents, is a poor recommended for utilities seeking to work with a trusted utility contractor. Reported.

These guys are an absolute god send! All of the lines down and trees over everything from hurricane Dorian and they came to SC and brought those of us in my area back out of the dark ages! Thank you guys for working through the night and through the weather!

Me and my company worked along side with them with loader and dozers in North Texas ice storm they are the hardest working and nicest people you could work with and there man in charge Jeff hunt is the nicest top rated guy they could have to represent that company. Thanks for everything they did for perryton texas and all surrounding towns.

I have not had work done by Service Electric Company, but I have had the displeasure of renting a hotel room beside a few of their employees. I have had to hear a foreman boast about having things shoved in his orifices and about him being a master of running from the police. Not that I was eaves dropping, just walking my dog while he got sloppy drunk on the tailgate of a company truck. Reached out to Service Electric several times after the foreman intimidated the kind hotel owner, but this did not help. I would be afraid of the work they would do with electrical engineering if this is the face of the company

I have never had any work done by Service Electric, nor will I ever, or ever recommend them for anything. The employees that I have experienced are some of the most thoughtless, rude, and disrespectful people I have met. Several members of their crew have rented rooms in the same hotel as me. The first day they were here they drank for 12 hours straight on the back of the company truck.

This is the routine for these workers. Work until 5 p.m., drink until midnight, then get up at 5 a.m. and go wire electricity for people. Unfortunately these workers like to use my window sill as their "bar". I hear them over my a.c. and t.v. The owners of the hotel asked them not to stand in front of my window and drink, but one said he liked to stand there and drink and he wouldn't move.

I've been concerned that they might like to try to look in my window and stare at my 4 year old daughter. One employee doesn't mind yelling about his sexual experiences for all in the parking lot to hear. Anyone thinking of hiring this company beware.
