Best Electricians in New York, NY
So, about two weeks ago I found a leak in my kitchen, and as a result, had to get several panels of hardwood floor removed to expose the subfloor and let it dry out. The roaches were not on board with this plan and decided that if their home was gonna be destroyed, they'd move in with me. After a week of chasing them around with can of Raid, I decided to purchase some professional grade stuff that I can spray directly into the crevices of the exposed subfloor. I'm scheduled to get new flooring put down tomorrow so today was my last chance to contain the problem.
A minute or so into admiring the precision with with which I was able to apply this life saving (or life ending if you're a bug) solution of insecticide, a huge spark launches out of from somewhere on the floor -- nearly giving me a heart attack -- and I see the green light of the outlet I'm standing next to go dim. I check my circuit breaker panel and did not notice any circuits that had flicked off. I tried turning some of them on/off anyway, but to no avail. I frantically signup for Angie's list, and begin calling every licensed electrician in my area hoping that someone is able to come in today since tomorrow at 8:30am: new floor. It was a BIG spark, and I can't enjoy my floor if I die in a fire (or the guys who are installing it do).
As I made my way down the list of highly rated electricians provided to me by Angie's List, I eventually end up calling Solomon and explained the situation to him. I was immediately grateful that he understood what had happened wasn't an emergency per se, but it was an emergency to me -- I WANT MY FLOOR BACK. He asks me to text him as many pictures as possible so he can assess the situation. I do, and less than 5 minutes later, he calls me back, and dare I say sounds happy.
Apparently what happened to me is relatively common as the wiring for GTCI outlets (the ones that have reset & test buttons) is very sensitive and didn't appreciate me spraying aerosol insecticide in its vicinity. Solomon instructed me to take another look at my circuit breaker panel. Turns out that I had reset the incorrect breaker (stupid illegible labels), and there actually was one that was not in the off position, but wasn't exactly in the on position either. I flipped it back on and problem solved.
Considering that I was ready to shell out a chunk of cash (that I don't have) to get someone to my apartment ASAP, and also knowing that the chances of even getting that to happen were slim, to say that I am thankful is an understatement, hence this review. So, no, Solomon did not actually physically fix my problem, instead he assessed, diagnosed, and fixed the problem all remotely, and for free at that. Although I never hope to again be in the market for an electrician, at least I know who to call if I ever get another I almost started an electrical fire heart attack.

I had an excellent experience with Omeshwar. He was very professional and did a great job installing a number of dimmers throughout my house. There were a couple complicated issues that arose during the install, and Omeshwar handled them like a pro. He was also a pleasure to work with, was great at communicating, and was reasonably priced. Will definitely be going back to him in the future!

No Shorts Electric completely knocked it out of the park! They updated our 50's-era electrical panel to a modern, 200-amp system for our 2-family house. Now the house is finally ready for the 21st century! Estimates are free and -- this is important -- comprehensive. I knew there wouldn't be any surprises when it was time for payment, which was the main reason I picked them over a rival firm.
Equally important, everyone, from Mike (the estimator) to Dominick and Nick (the work crew) was super friendly, respectful, and totally professional. The minute Dominick looked me square in the eye and shook my hand when they got here, I knew I had made a great choice. I am already planning to call on them for the next phase of work.

On time. Called prior to arrival. His techs Diagnosed problem in bathroom and swapped out faulty switch in 20 minutes. Billing done via email, no money changed hands. I'm assuming that will go smoothly. $150 to walk in the door. Expensive switch. Should have become a plumber.
Update. Payment was sent to my email with a $30 discount due to the easy fix. Excellent

Serge came over at the exact time we agreed with. His work is very organize and detailed.
You can't go wrong with him.
The installation of mounting a TV and Sonos Playbar was less than an hour. He brings tools that are necessary for Metal & wood studs and makes his job very clean. His prices are very reasonable I will hire him again if I need some good work on my walls in the future.

Jaime did a great job installing our ceiling fans. He was very responsive from the first call, coming over same-day to assess the job. Weekend hours and quick to respond, worked with us to find a reasonable price.

They have us a very good price. They came same day. They had the part in stock. They were flexible. They fixed the issue. The price was very reasonable especially for same day. We strongly recommend them.

We lost power on Christmas Day. After ConEdison was unable to resolve the issue, Dennis and team came to help us on short notice, with great responsiveness and courtesy. For a very reasonable price, York fixed our problem quickly and efficiently. So appreciative of their time and professionalism. Strongly recommend!!!

We did a big renovation -- not quite a gut, but close. Our GC rewired the whole place. His electrician left us with 10-12 outlets showing no ground. GC refused to fix it... he was very passive-aggressive.
I called Eugene @ Gambi, who came over, figured out the problems (they were a bit more involved than he first thought), and sorted them out without a lot of fuss. Charged a reasonable price. I wasn't on site to meet him, but my sister was, and she liked him. That's saying something. She's pretty finicky when it comes to liking people. He took my questions over the phone, as well as her own questions, and answered them all patiently.
I'll call Eugene again for any electrical work.

Hired rob to rewire my attic had some damage before from a short that went wrong, he was fair with the price and quality workmanship.
1806 Paulding Ave Bronx, NY 10462
Friendly, reliable, and responsive handyman. He got the work done efficiently and we are very happy with the quality of work! He has already completed multiple jobs for my moms house and I only found him two weeks ago. He put up a new towel rod through tile, installed a new mailbox, fixed our leaky basement pipe, and helped with a minor repair on our screen door. Highly recommend for all the odd jobs you have around your home.

These guys are the best. We had a local contractor install some closet lighting which turned out to be done completely wrong and stopped working after a few months.
Frank from Ceriello saved us, he repaired the mess in a neat and timely manner. I would definitely use them in the future and highly recommend them.

Avoid at all costs. I asked the guy (Jeff Brausewetter) to install a 220v outlet for a new dryer and he said he needed to put in a new breaker box. I paid for it, and he came and installed it; he told me he was almost done but just needed to get the part for the outlet. Then he stopped answering the phone or replying to my texts. Finally he replied saying that he had been locked out of his phone and would sort me out, but after that he became unresponsive at the new number too. Finally I had another electrician out (Riviera Electric, recommended). He explained that (i) Jeff's breaker box was completely useless, and (ii) he hadn't actually done anything except for screwing the box onto the wall - no wiring or anything. So, I'm out over $300 with nothing to show for it except for a useless breaker box that I'm going to have to throw away. BEWARE!
