    I have been a licensed General Contractor for 35 years, and I have been building high-end custom homes for over 25 years. Over the years I have learned that my house, and my reputation, is only as good as my worst “Sub”. Therefore, all my Subs are very qualified - and Jim Burkin with Burkin Electric is possibly my best. He is extremely knowledgeable in his craft, professional, honest, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Burkin Electric for your project.
