Electrical & Lighting Solutions (ELS)

RESEARCH-BASED REVIEW, NOT A FIRST-HAND VISIT. Everything below comes from the public sources listed at the end, accessed on 2026-10-11. No one from Peachtree City Guide has hired this company. Workmanship scores are provisional.

🔧 License status: No Georgia license number published or found in state records (checked Oct 13, 2026); license may be held under an individual’s name. We checked Georgia Secretary of State license records (goals.sos.ga.gov). Ask for the number and check it yourself.

Scorecard

Score change (2026-10-11): 6.9 → 7.0. Why: added the 10% recent-customer-experience component (score 8.4, n=8).

Score change (2026-10-11, browser-confirmed BBB/Yelp check): 7.0 → 7.0. Why: no criterion changed; the browser check confirmed or corrected the platform data only.

• Phone (678) 916-9871. Owners Philip and Kim; Philip started the business “over a decade ago” (site).
• Site hours M–F 8–5; Exa lists Mon–Sat 9–8 (conflict).

The short version

• Ratings: Exa Places 4.9 from 284.
• BBB: A+, not accredited (BBB search results JSON; profile pages blocked by a bot check, so complaint details were not visible).
• Free estimates; claims to be a “certified Tesla charging station contractor”.
• Other platforms & recent reviews: BBB (read on screen): A+, not accredited, 0 complaints (Sharpsburg; spelled “Solutons”). Experience.com 4.85 (search snippet). 8 recent reviews show no negative themes. (Updated with browser-confirmed BBB/Yelp data, 2026-10-11.)

What customers say (themes)

• Fixing other contractors’ unsafe work (can lights, ceiling fan).
• Panel and sub-panel work at “very reasonable cost”; accurate estimates; answers the phone.
• Outdoor and string lighting design.
• Limitation: we read only the recent reviews shown on each aggregator page. We did not open Google, Yelp, Angi, or Facebook directly. Rating counts differ between platforms. Update 2026-10-11: BBB and Yelp pages for this business were later read on screen in a browser check (see “Other review platforms”); individual Yelp review text was not copied, so the keyword tallies are unchanged.
• Recent reviews (last 24 months, n=8): most-mentioned compliments: fast / same-day (3), communicative (2), clean / tidy (1); complaints: none. Other platforms are covered in “Other review platforms” below.

No profile found, or blocked by a bot check: Birdeye, Nextdoor, Yelp, Facebook, HomeAdvisor, Angi, Houzz, Thumbtack, Porch, Trustpilot. We did not get around any bot check. Trustpilot, Yelp, Angi, HomeAdvisor, Houzz and BBB profile pages blocked automated access, and Facebook requires a login.

Other blocked sites were used only through labeled search snippets.

Bottom line

A strong alternative to PowerWorks, especially for lighting design. Confirm which office serves PTC and get the license number. Consistent across what we could read. (Score 6.9 → 7.0 after the 2026-10-11 other-platform and recent-review check.)
