★★★★★

Sam was great he beat out several large companies in the area on his original estimate by a long shot. He was very kind and very professional and completed the work quickly and efficiently. I had to have some interesting issues figured with some old electrical done by a previous homeowner and he was very knowledgeable and came up with several creative solutions.

★★★★★

Needed a panel upgrade and separate circuit for my microwave. Sam did an awesome job. His coordination with Idaho Power was spot on and right to schedule. His professionalism, communication, punctuality, expertise, and workmanship cannot go unnoticed.

★★★★★

I cannot recommend Good Help Electric enough! I had a serious issue with my electric main box, and Sam came out on short notice to fix it. He even moved his schedule around to accommodate me, which meant so much during an emergency. He worked for hours in the hot sun to get me back up and running.

★★★★★

I have hired Sam multiple times and have had a great experience every time. He's easy to work with and always shows up with a smile. He replaced a dryer outlet and installed a light kit in our ceiling fan. Everything has worked great since. I'd happily call him again!

Meet Sam, the electrical contractor behind every job.

Sam owns and runs Good Help Electric out of the Treasure Valley, where he lives with his wife Emily and their four kids. When he's not running wire or tracking down a tricky electrical problem, he's out biking with his family around Boise.

Sam learned the trade from his father-in-law, a licensed electrical contractor who has run his own business in the valley for over 30 years. That foundation led him to a larger electrical company, where he worked his way up to Service Department Manager. Those years taught him how to run a business the right way: show up on time, be honest about what the job needs, do clean work, and leave every home better than you found it. With 12 years of hands-on experience, he's worked in thousands of Treasure Valley homes and knows them inside and out.
