Best Electricians in United States

Hands down, Warren is the BEST electrician!
I had a very tricky situation where I needed a LICENSED electrician to do work on my circuit box so I could close an open electrical permit on my property. After calling Electrician Techs multiple times, as well as another electrician and getting no follow through, I called Warren and wow I am glad I did.
He was very communicative and helpful with my situation from the start, and he took my complicated job that no one else would take! He was very sympathetic and kind to my situation (trying to close this impossible permit so I could sell my property, while being pregnant). He is licensed so he can deal with DOB permitting, unlike some of the other electricians working in the field, who are apparently unlicensed! He was very experienced and knowledgeable about the DOB and how to successfully pass inspection.
Warren also involved me and asked my judgment at every step of the process, which put me at ease and was actually pretty fun. He shows respect for you as a client and as a human being, which is so rare and lovely to encounter in this context.
He was always on time and communicative via phone and text, and pretty funny too. He got the impossible job done quickly enough for my property sale, while minimizing stress for me. Needless to say, we PASSED the DOB inspection, which was incredible.
I would definitely recommend Warren's services and will be using him again in the future!

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.

Will comes back.
Will installed a NEMA 14-50 outlet for me to charge my tesla, had to rework the panel.
The next day, I found out some other lights had no power. Texted Will. He's back the next day and got it fixed for me. I already paid him with cash. I have had few experiences that contractors didn't come back or return call after they got their money. But Will came back for me. Will responded very fast to calls and texts as well.

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!)

Kevin and Dave did the most amazing job on my apartment remodel. They explained every part of the process, what supplies I needed and provided the most honest suggestions to meet our end goal as homeowners instead of just serving up the most expensive option. Kevin was impeccable at scheduling in advance and coordinating everything with our inspection timing, etc to ensure the job was done in an efficient manner. While working, Kevin and Dave protected our floors, countertops, and rugs and was very diligent about cleaning up after they finished. This was amazing and very important since we have a toddler in our apartment. If you are looking for an honest, reliable, knowledgable, perfectionist - Kevin and Dave at Keller Electric are the ones to call. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to all my friends.

Made an appointment for a ceiling fan replacement. The guys that came in were prompt, did the job well and readily answered all questions I had. The guys that came in were respectful of the environment, cleaned up after themselves.
Excellent addition to my roster of go-to fixers for the house!

Rich did some big jobs at my home and did a great job. He was outstanding with suggestions and they all looked great when he finished. I had some experience with many electricians and by far he is the best. I recommend him to anyone, they will not be disappointed.

I sold my house to an FHA buyer and as expected, the inspector flagged a few things with the electrical system in our house. Of course, the buyer asked for the entire house to be rewired, but we were not willing to spend the $4000+ to do that, so we countered and told them we would address only the items the inspector actually flagged, which were: correct reverse polarity in 2 outlets; install dedicated line from panel to 2 kitchen counter outlets and properly ground the GFIs; install a dedicated line to the bathroom and install GFI; install a dedicated line to the laundry room and install a GFI; and install a ground wire from the panel to the water meter. Jim came out and gave us a very reasonable estimate to do all this work and once we made the decision to go with him, we scheduled the work to be completed a couple weeks later. Two gentlemen came out to do the work and they were very nice, polite, and respectful. I am always worried about being disrespected or taken advantage of as a woman in these situations, but they were both great. When their work was finished, I asked them if I could use their outlet tester to take pictures of the grounded outlets and the corrected outlets to send to my realtor - she would be sending these on to the buyer's agent to show that the work had been completed. During this last round, we discovered that one of the kitchen outlets did not have the same test result as the other, which led me to believe it might not be properly grounded. I won't pretend to understand electrical work or terminology, but he tried to explain it to me - why it was fine the way it was, and would pass inspection - but I told him it would just make me feel better if the tester lit up the same way on this second kitchen outlet as it did on the first. And he happily complied. Without an attitude or irritation or anything. So thank you so much for that! It only took him an extra 10-15 minutes and at that point I was 100% satisfied with the work! All said and done, this came out to less than $900, and I'm very pleased with the experience. Jim was great to work with and so were his two men!

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.
