Best Electricians in United States

Outstanding electrician. Warren showed up on short notice, figured out what was wrong quickly, explained everything clearly, and had two separate issues fixed in about an hour. No dishonesty whatsoever, and his rates are beyond fair. Can't recommend highly enough.

James was responsive and able to give me an estimate and schedule an appointment quickly.  He was professional and did great work.  Hire this guy.

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.

Anthony and his team are true electrical experts! They are responsive, knowledgable, friendly, clean and there are no surprises. They completely wired our newly purchased home, installed LED high hats, updated and replaced all electrical outlets, and fixed some shoddy electrical from the previous owners. I will use them again and again. I highly recommend Totally Wired for all your electrical needs.

We've been working on the yard for months, and noticed that there is no electric in the garage! We want to use it for a bar, and entertainment space during the spring/summer. We called, and Wilfredo immediately came out, and gave a fair reasonable price. He is a licensed electrician, we wanted to make sure that everything was done right, and thankfully it was! We couldn't be happier with how professional he is, there was never an issue with him being late, he always responded to my texts & phone calls. We couldn't be happier with the quality of work.

These guys did a great job! Was very impressed by their professionalism amd home theater quality installation they did. I definitely recommend Primo. Thanks

I tried to move a light switch myself from one wall to another one and screwed up, so I called a guy who told me that couldn't be fixed. I couldn't believe that! So I found Sal on Yelp and called him last night. He came this morning and got the job done in 45 min! Easy Peasy. Great price. He explained to me everything and gave me some advices. He definitely knew his job, not like the first guy. He seems very trustworthy and doesn't try to take advantage of people. I will hire him again for sure.

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!)

We bought a 3 bedroom, 2 bath in Hoboken. Changed out light fixtures throughout, added dimmers, changed exhaust fans and a dozen other things. Kevin and his guys came within a day of us reaching out. Everything was done professionally and carefully. And they're solid guys. They even came back to re-hang new fixtures that we decided to swap out and didn't charge us. Highly recommend.

Barret and his techs have done an awesome job. So professional prompt and courteous..

5 stars to everyone at Grounded  Electric!

Great doing work with Rich and his team. Worked around my
schedule and completed the work on time. would highly recommend
him and his crew. Had to rewire an old house that was flipped. didn't leave a mess nor made holes in my walls. a little touch-ups but that
was about it. Thanks guys :)

Very good service. Reasonable quotes. We had our electric fixtures changed and they did a great job. We also hired them for wiring our audio system in the living room and they did nice work. We trust them to be good and not overcharge. I hope they stay this way. It's very hard to find businesses that don't try to overcharge these days. Thanks Jim and sons!

Worst people ever. Contacted them about service and for a quote and they had the rudest phone skills I have ever experienced. If they are this rude over the phone, imagine how they are when they are working. Never ever will I call them again and will tell everyone just how bad they are.

We've used Frank Mineo Electrical on two different occasions now, for fairly mundane residential electrical projects - adding/moving outlets, repairing switches, etc. Both times they were prompt, polite, and did great work. The most recent time they were 30% less than a competitive quote, and I felt they went beyond what they were asked to do. I really don't see any reason to call anyone else for any future electrical work I might need.

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