"Lawson Electric does all of our low voltage, electrical, access control, and camera work. From my personal properties to our corporate buildings, Lawson does impeccable work. It is beyond excellent!"

John Anthony Smith

"I wanted to take this opportunity to reach out to your company and personally thank you all for a job well done! Your team started this large project at my site in LaVergne Tennessee on July 4th and successfully completed everything just last week. But let me tell you why I use the words successfully completed the project. My site is approximately 52 acres under roof and we replaced close to 5700 lights, many of which came with very unique challenges associated with a large manufacturing plant, all of which your team met with incredible results. The most impressive to me was the safety side of the house, with ZERO safety incidents. With a team as large as yours and the length of time they were here, this is unheard of and is a testament to the culture that is evident in your everyday work."

Robert Sickmiller

"I feel I speak for all those involved when I say that Lawson Electric Company has and does a great job for us here at Chattanooga Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Inc. Your employees are always well-trained, professional people that do quality work. Most of the projects we do are labor intensive with a tight schedule. Lawson Electric Company has always exceed our expectations. The old saying in contract work is that you are only as good as your last job."
