Best Electricians in United States

I hired Warren to do some electrical work for my new A/C units.  This required drilling into walls, fishing wires and climbing ladders.  He was timely, efficient, friendly, and professional from beginning til end.  

But what stood out about him is this guys is honest.  He will tell you exactly what you need to know and he's friendly about it.  This guy has manners and he knows how to act in your house.  He wiped his shoes and took them off before he came in.  Who does that anymore???  He took his time and did everything he was supposed to and then some.  And then when he was done he asked what else I needed.  Warren is a go to guy if you want someone to do a honest days work.

I called James on Friday and left a message and he got back to me pretty quickly. I had a kitchen and bathroom light that both needed to be looked at. He let me know that he couldn't stop by over the weekend but he would be here Monday at 5:30. He had me text me my address afterwards, and on Monday afternoon he texted me that he could be here early (a first for any work I've ever had done on my house) if I wanted. I was still at work so I let him know that I couldn't be home early but that I'd be home on our agreed upon time. He was exactly on time and was able to get me up and running within 20 minutes. I am extremely happy with the service and would recommend James for anyone looking for a friendly electrician that does great work. He even gave me some advice on future repairs that I want done in my home and made recommendations to save money on the future in repairs and in electric bills. Thank you James!

The skinny:  Greg from Powerplus is an absolute professional.  If you're looking for an electrician who does quality work, is exceptionally thorough, and charges reasonable rates, look no further.  

Here's my long-winded story:

With the power outages we've had in my area the past couple of years I wanted to make sure this year I was ready for future emergencies. Standby generators and other such solutions were way out of my budget so I opted to go with the portable generator + Interlock solution (as opposed to manual transfer switches, etc.).  

I found a couple of electricians via word of mouth and from local online forums  and got some estimates.  I heard roughly the same details from each of the 3 electricians I talked to:

- This would be a straight forward job, estimates roughly the same
- The only gotcha is that my town is extremely anal about inspections (2 of the 3 who have done work in my town said this, including Greg.  The 3rd usually does work outside my town, but said my job should be no problem, based on permit work he's done elsewhere in NJ).

What set Greg apart were the following:
- Very responsive. You can tell he's busy, but he's never too busy to answer your call or answer your e-mail.  I had a lot of questions along the way and I was always appreciative of how patient Greg was throughout the process.  
- Foresaw Potential Issues - Though the general sentiment was that my job would not have any issues with the town, Greg did notice that my existing panel was overloaded (due to tandem breakers).  He remarked that usually town inspectors don't make you redo existing work as they inspect the new scope of work.  However, he was the only one of the 3 that made the effort to contact my town's inspector to check.  And lo and behold, my town, true to their reputation responded that they would fail the new work (for the interlock) because of my existing overloaded panel.  Greg came up with alternatives and continued to think through what the potential pitfalls were.  If I had gone with anyone else, they would have done the work, failed inspection, and then we would have been at the point to consider alternatives.  Greg was the only one that helped me figure out the issues ahead of time.  I'm a no surprises kind of guy, so that was very important to me.  
- Leveraged Technology - One of the other things that distinguished Greg from others was he was the only one with a Facebook page (facebook.com/powerplusel…)  All very clean cut and nice.  He also was the only electrician I contacted willing to scope out the work based on pictures.  Part of that is that he's about an hour away from me so it wasn't the most convenient for him to come out to my place.  But, I mean, it is 2014, you'd think more contractors would be able to use technology to their advantage and save everybody (both themselves and the homeowner) time.  To be clear, Greg did come in person to finalize some things and confirm what he saw in the pics I sent him, but it just makes a whole lot more sense to me for an initial estimate to be done via pictures.  I wish more contractors would do that.  
- Saw the Job Through (start to finish) - I never had to bug Greg on status or what was going on.  He was usually the one to ping me and keep me up to speed on what was going on.  That's a breath of fresh air compared to all of the other contractors I've ever dealt with.  

So what happened:
- Greg did an awesome job, the subpanel looked great, all the wiring was clean cut.  He took the time to explain everything as we tested the setup (generator, interlock).    I was happy.
- We went to inspection, and my town failed it due to some their interpretation of working clearance.   Note this had NOTHING to do with Greg's work and I am convinced that my town is just difficult to work with (this was confirmed later, by the way, as I spoke to more people)  
- We were stuck between a rock and a hard place at this point.  But credit Greg.  Long story short, he helped me persevere and we found a solution to all of it.  Honestly, as I've stated above, I think my town is the exception and inspectors elsewhere would not have failed my job.  I would never advise anyone to do electrical work without a permit, but in my case it was an extreme hassle.  
- It's hard to say what would have happened if I had chosen someone else.  But I do think any lesser electrician would have bailed on me as this literally took months to sort out.  

Bottom line:  Greg is hard-working, honest, and does quality work.  That combination of qualities rare these days.  To be completely honest, given the experience it took to get a permit in my town, I'm hesitant to ever do any electrical work in my home again.  But, if I do, I will definitely go with Greg.

Requested a quote for a simple galley kitchen, wanted to shop local, received 4 bids, theres was 50 % higher than all the others! Was totally disappointed ! For a simple move of a switch going from horizontal to vertical , the owner wanted to charge me$150! ! Lesson learned, definitely receive several bids before making a decision!
Went with Nicks Electrical - best decision ever!Half the cost, great results!

Recently bought a home and someone recommended 745 electric for electrical work o needed done. First I would like to say their professionalism was stellar and their work was nothing short of neat and efficient. I would definitely use them again and also recommend to anyone in need of an electrician.

Thank you primo installation for mounting my 2nd TV in my apartment you guys are the best.

We had an outdoor plug that didn't seem to be working so we called and they came out shortly after to take a look. It turned out that the plug was fine and he was kind and not at all annoyed that he had come by for nothing. Gave him a tip for his time, happy with the speedy same day service.

I recently bought a home and it needed a lot of updating.  I called plaza and working with them has been INCREDIBLE! Courteous, quick, professional, on time and the list goes on!  They worked with me and my crazy schedule and the work they do is hands down the best!  I would recommend Plaza to everyone (if you want it done right!)

Evan is punctual and met me in the middle of the day to fix the amplifier to the building intercom system on a unit in downtown Hoboken.  He was proficient in diagnosing and solving the problem that was preventing 8 units from hearing their doorbells ring.  Great work.

Electricians provided outstanding professional service with honesty and integrity.  Called them to explain our problems and they were able to give us a quick response and quote, not string us along or take advantage of us.  

They showed up the very next day and solved our problems quickly and efficiently.  Got us up and running like nothing happened.  Will call Grounded Electric again if we need their help.  Highly recommend them.

We just bought a house and hired Caliber to install a new panel, some light fixtures and a bathroom fan. Richard and his team were great. It was always easy to get a hold of them, they were friendly, professional and honest, and one night Daniel even stayed until 10 pm to finish up a project he promised to do for us. I highly recommend Caliber's services.

2nd time I have used them.
They are super professional and reliable, a bit hard to get a short term appointment, but worth the wait.

I highly recommend Spiro Electric.  John is professional, thorough and honest.  He came by after I left a message on a Saturday evening that my breaker box smelled like burning.  He said it was a fire hazard and that he had to fix it right then.  He fixed it and rewired our entire box and spent the time to make sure that nothing was overloaded.  He said he would be coming back in a week to check to make sure everything was working ok.  You can call them without hesitation!

They did a nice job installing a high voltage line for a car charger.  Very professional.

I recently bought a multiple floor town-home on the upper east side. During my renovations, I wanted to upgrade my security system to keep my family and I safe and secure. I also wanted indoor cameras in my newborns nursery, overlooking my pool, and the inside as well as the outsides' of my entrances'. I didn't have much time to do my research because I was without a doorbell for days. I took a shot in the dark with Speakeasy Intercom & Electric Service who was referred to us by a super of a high rise that my husband's colleague resides in.

Two technicians arrived at my home promptly. The work took a few days, but I can tell you right now I wouldn't of wanted to use any other company. They were knowledgeable, friendly, honest, and I took note to their extremely professional demeanor and team work.

They set all my cameras up to my televisions and my husband and I's cell phones. I can watch my home while I'm out of town, and even out of the country which is really great because we travel a lot. I even have a factory warranty on my DVR in case anything happens.

All in all, I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend the use of Speakeasy Intercom.
