Best Electricians in New York, NY

I contacted a bunch of electricians on Yelp because I needed light fixtures changed out in my rental. Moshe from Electrician Techs got back to me immediately with a very reasonable quote and we scheduled an appointment. I had to reschedule a few times due to shipping issues with one of the lights and Moshe was patient and friendly throughout that process. Finally, Steve came to install my lights and was a lovely guy to have around. My building is over 100 years old and the wiring is crappy, so Steve ended up replacing one of the boxes. The old wiring was clearly difficult to work with but Steve would not leave until everything was perfect. I'm so happy with the service and will definitely hire again in the future!

I live in an apartment and my bedroom+closet electricity has been acting up. I need to turn on and off the switch in the breaker box multiple times a day, however, one day it just decided not to work anymore. As the temperature is dropping, I had to get it fixed so I can turn on the heat before the winter hits New York. Klodian showed up on time. He's very professional, friendly and polite. It's raining outside, he even took of his shoes before come into the apartment in order not to mess up the floor. He has done a really neat job, within 10 or 20 mins all issues were resolved. Helpful as he is, he fixed the bulging wood floor for me. I know I hired an electrician, but he did this extra thing to help me out. I really appreciate all his help! Make sure you go to Klodian when you have electricity related, or maybe, all house improvement issues :)

Super responsive and very quick to schedule and get the repair completed. Very professional. Kept a mask on the entire time too!

Mickhael is AMAZING! I found him on Yelp and his quote was very reasonable and he's super easy to work with. My contractor had messed up and killed one of my outlets in my bedroom. I got several quotes and Mickhael's was the most reasonable and he is flexible and will work with your schedule. He came and did 3 things for us: wired an outlet, extended a wire for our island range hood and grounded our ceiling light and re-wired an outlet in the kitchen. My previous contractor left several things that were very unsafe! So glad we got Mike to come in and take a look. He was very clean and professional and tarped the area so that there was minimal dirt and debris in my apt. Would highly recommend and will definitely use him again!

We had gotten in touch with NYC Electricians to come out and fix a dimmer switch. They were prompt and EXTREMELY friendly and cooperative. Mark got straight to it (we only had 5mins to get the job done), and the job was finished in 5mins and we were able to get right back to business as usual! And at a great price too! If you need a professional, quick, and friendly electric job taken care of you should definitely reach out to New York City Electricians (and ask for Mark!!)

Plugged an old appliance into an old outlet and saw a big scary spark, the entire house went dark and my phone had 10% battery left and my hair full of conditioner. I called the fire department and they did not want to turn back on my lights because of safety reasons. They told me to call an electrician. I called about 4 different places/handy men from yelp and none of the  places were able to make it out but thankfully I came across Nair and they were wonderful. Someone picked up the phone asked me a few questions and had someone out to me in 30 mins! I felt so comfortable with the electrician that was here. He fixed the problem and my lights are back on. This company is professional and licensed which gives it a perfect rating!

I cannot recommend John and JEM enough. My partner and I had some serious problems with a ceiling light- we had tried to replace it with a ceiling fan only to find out that our electric is from before 1960s. There were no ground wires and our previous electrician snapped a wire trying to figure out what was going on and then created a quick fix that shorted out when there were power surges across nyc due to a storm. We had no power in our kitchen and a possible fire hazard on our hands.

John was quick to respond, assess the damage in the pictures and give us a quote that was an extremely reasonable price! He'd worked with old buildings before so the job took no time at all, plus since we're renters he wrote up an invoice for the work as well as an assessment of future work that the light needs, so that we could charge it to our landlord and he could follow up with the rest of the work. So smooth and easy! And he was organized, on time and had every tool possible for the job. Seriously, if you need an electrician I don't think you can find a better one x

The issue was a light fixture with a broken ballast. I wanted the ballast to be bypassed and to use LED lighting instead.  I had provided the lighting and the materials required. I put out a request and they were one of the first to respond. They indicated that they would come the next day and look at the situation and provide an estimate.

They showed up on time, and went straight to work. In retrospect, that is not what should have happened. They quickly and efficiently installed the light and it worked perfectly,  but I had not gotten an estimate so I was not quite sure what I was going to end up paying.  They were notably higher than an estimate that I had received (which included providing materials - which I provided) but they had done the work, so I did not feel it appropriate to haggle.

In the end, though, they did great work and even cleaned up after they were done.

Mike rewired a small commercial space for me after I took down some drywall leaving tons of exposed conduit. The project took longer than I had expected but his work was thorough. Mike has a great work ethic and even persevered when there was a mild plumbing disaster within his work space. Thanks again.

Dan the owner was fantastic to deal with.  

Gave me a fair estimate and finished the work quickly.  Left doing a neat and professional job.  

Very happy with his work

Highly recommend.

We needed a new breaker box, as ours was falling apart. CS came by to give me a quote and checked out the electrical in the whole apartment. I thought I might have to rewire the whole place, but they told me that after they swapped out the box that it would probably fix our issues. They steered me away of spending money I didn't need to spend, when they could have easily told me I needed to do more work. They came in, put in the new box, left the apartment cleaner than it was, and were super nice the whole time. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Didn't come when scheduled or call to tell my he'd be late. I had to call him to find out where he was and he said he could come later. When he did come I had him change three lighting fixtures. He charged me $90 for each one. One of them didn't work but he charged me anyway and was going to leave me with no light there until I told him that I needed some sort of light in that room so he reattached a part from an old fixture there so I have a bulb and wires hanging out of the ceiling. Left parts of fixtures, plaster, and electrical parts everywhere. Got plaster all over my new couch. He said he'd come back and put up the new fixture when I get a replacement but I'm afraid he'll get plaster and parts everywhere so I'm going to have to go with someone else. What a waste of money.

We bought a 2 family home in Brooklyn and Cel Electric installed new electrical service for the entire house. Very happy with the service.. will definitely recommend and use them for all my future needs. Will rate them 10 out of 10.

Yoni came the same day that I called him to replace a broken light switch. Quick service and well done, and gave me a price quote in advance which I appreciated. I texted  him photos of the problem so he knew exactly what replacement parts he needed to buy in advance. Glad I found him on yelp.

Ilya did great work.  He gave good advice by phone and text to make sure we had the right parts for the baseboard heater and thermostat.  His prices were fair.  His work is completed quickly and with care.  I would highly recommend Ilya to neighbors and friends.

New to town and already nearly set my house on fire by trying to install a ceiling fan. Called around and Don got back to me right away, dropped everything, came, worked fast, and was very honest and affordable. I can't say enough good things, really a great and honest. Thank you!

When I called, I didn't expect same day service, but I'm grateful I was able to get someone to come out 40 minutes after my phone call! I bought a tv mount and neither I or my bf could figure out how to make sure it was secure (since it is in a baby room) Sergio showed up in a mask and even put on shoe covers upon entering my house. I directed him to my baby room where I wanted him to mount the television.  He asked me the height I wanted the tv I showed him and he got to work. In about 20 minutes, he was done. He showed me how to take the tv off (should I need to) and how the mount worked. He was fast and efficient his work was neat and the mount is sturdy. I will definitely be calling him in the future!

Needed help installing two 3-way light switches that kept tripping the breaker. Avi was able to come within a day. He diagnosed the problem and quickly fixed the issue. He explained what he was doing and answered all my questions. Would definitely recommend his services! Thank you, Avi!

Katie was responsive, professional, and, above all, extremely handy. I hired her to fix a plaster wall and reinstall shelves after the last guy I hired made an absolute mess of it. As soon as she assessed the damage and explained how she would go about fixing it, I knew I was in good hands. And sure enough, it looks like new again. So glad I found Katie! I would 100% hire her again and you should, too.

I called Cooper Electrical Services because of the great reviews on here.  Roman made an appointment for a week later, which was his first available.  On the day of, I made sure my schedule was clear in case he came early or it took longer than expected... and nobody showed up.  I called about 15 minutes before the scheduled appointment time to make sure they were coming, since I hadn't heard from them, and they said they couldn't make it.  Now, I'm a reasonable person, so I said fine, when can you come... and he said not for another week!  I'm sorry but if you don't show for an appointment, you make sure you get there in the next 24-48 hours.  All I need is 1 chandelier and 1 fan installed.  I'm extremely disappointed, and will be calling someone else who will be reliable.
