Best Electricians in United States
Warren did our small job professionally and was extremely friendly. The friendly part was very important for my 91-year-old mother, she was immediately at her ease with him in her house. When he finished the job he asked if there was anything else and my mother did think of another electrical fixture that needed repair - which he took care of right away. But he wasn't pushy, he did only the work we asked for and he told us exactly what he was doing and what our options were at each step.
I'd recommend that he identify himself when he picks up the phone (Hello! This is Warren. How may I help you? or something similar) and carry more small replacement parts with him. Other than that, perfect service at a fair price and I'm very glad I picked him to do our work. I'll definitely contact him the next time my mother's home needs electrical work.

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!

Really happy with the service! Contacted Will on Saturday and he was able to come by on Sunday to help install a hanging lamp. Once he finished, my husband and I wanted to add an outlet to our mechanical room - Will was able to do it in under 20 mins. Very happy with the service - Will was professional and knowledgeable. We will definitely call him again if we need electrical help.

Primo TV provides excellent service.
I contacted them on Saturday evening and by Sunday afternoon my 50 plasma (83 pounds) was solidly mounted on my wall with a cable raceway.
You simply cannot find this level of knowledge and service at a price point anywhere close to theirs. Should we ever need any similar services in the future, we will not hesitate to contact primo first.

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!)

Renovating a kitchen can be an arduous task, however, Kevin of Keller Electric brought light to the end of our project, no pun intended. He showed up on time, got the job done at the price agreed, and cleaned up after. Overall very professional, courteous and effective at getting the work done. Would recommend Keller Electric to everyone who needs a reliable electrician.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Barrett, Ryan and their team, including Bobby are all incredible. Smart, kind, efficient and accommodating! We moved into a new home and while I was installing a TV mount I accidentally cut a wire. They came on a Saturday to take care of us just to make sure we were safe. Nothing like great people who do great work! Thank you Grounded Electric! We're fans, appreciate you and highly recommend. We have also hired them to do all of the electrical work in our house, wouldn't have anyone else!

I contacted Jim & Sons Electric to get an estimate for a relatively minor job, but one that I knew would turn into a major job if I did it myself. They advised me that they had a technician in the area, and could be out that same afternoon.
Their tech showed up as promised, spent a few minutes evaluating the job and suggested that I order the light fixture of my choice, and let them know when I received it.
I contacted Jim & Sons the day I received the fixture, and again, they had someone available to do the installation that same afternoon.
It's not easy finding a company that is responsive and courteous, and who also does a good job and has reasonable prices. I'll definitely use Jim & Sons Electric for any future jobs. Great service!

John is cool. He came and assessed my ceiling fan. Guess it was not that big of a problem, because he didn't charge me. He just put a couple of screws in and that was it. He did suggest we get a new fan. Old one. I tried to fix a wobble in the fan, but he said it was normal. That darn thing almost dropped from my ceiling when I tried unscrewing it. Darn youtube gave me the wrong advice. Next time just hire a professional. John is an honest guy. I will call him again if I have any future projects.

Terrible company - insisted on pre-payment, and refused to complete the job.
