Best Businesses in New York, NY

5/5 stars! It's New Years Eve and I managed to cause a circuit to overload. I figured best case scenario was it wouldn't be fixed until after New Years and be a couple hundred bucks out. I found this company through yelp and gave Mike a call. Mike kindly walked me through what the problem was over the phone and managed to help me fix the issue and told me what to look out for in the future! I'm beyond impressed with his kindness and patience especially on New Years Eve. Thank you!!

Initial scope only included installation of a new light fixture. At the last minute, I thought it might be worth asking if he had extra USB outlets on hand that could be installed (time-permitting), so I asked, not really expecting much. He went above and beyond my expectations by visiting a nearby electrical store, picking up a couple outlets and staying longer to swap them in for me! 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Great electrician timely and good quality knowledgeable a+++++++++ performs great found electrical short near my fridge

I needed to install a new outlet that is 240 volts in my kitchen so that I can install an electric drying machine (live in Crown Heights, Brooklyn). I messaged Mickhael on Yelp late on a Friday night, and he got back to me within minutes. He requested a photo of the electrical panel, and one of the room in question where I needed the outlet. With little more information than that, he provided me a solid quote that I knew was good value, less expensive than several colleagues who had had the same work done on their apartments. After seeking a few more quotes over the weekend, I texted Mickhael and set up his work for the following Monday. He came, did the job quickly and politely, and even checked out the specs of the drying machine I plan to purchase in order to confirm that the specs would work with his new installation, offered me to text him additional questions. There's nothing to complain about, I would contact him again if new projects come up & refer him to friends / colleagues.

I ONLY requested a quote from NY City Electricians.   I received emails from a number of other companies that I had NOT contacted.   I called NYC Electricians and asked if they just passed on referrals but they said they did not.   They claimed they had not responded because their computer system was down but they would send me the estimate that day.  They never sent an estimate but the other companies continue to send me emails.  I'm not sure NYC Electricians is a real business.

Prices are pretty high
Pretty reliable
However, being a licensed electrician whose prices are not low, he did not know something that a random handyman fixed for me in a jiffy for a third of the price

I needed help with removing an old light fixture from a vaulted 13-foot ceiling, and then with installing a new, hanging chandelier in the same place.  After asking around without much luck, receiving difficult responses, or what I considered to be outrageous estimates, I connected with Jem Lighting and Led Specialist on Yelp.  John was super responsive and accommodating of my work schedule, gave what I considered to be a fair estimate for the job, and had no issue with the higher ceiling.  Better still, we were able to schedule his visit for the following afternoon.  As our conversation on Yelp suggested would be the case, John and his crew arrived on time, were super nice, professional and experienced.  They efficiently and carefully removed the old light, installed the new one, were mindful of the apartment at all times, and helped with installing all of the bulbs once finished.  Afterwards, they even asked about a broom and helped sweep up the floor.  Further still, after discussing a potential dimmer switch and the height of the chandelier, John offered to stop by within the week to assist with either additional task, if necessary.  Bottom line, if I have another lighting or electrical issue, I'll be reaching out to John and Jem Lighting and Led Specialist.

Danny has stellar customer service and while he was unable to fix my issue due to his license being valid in NY and I live in NJ he was still willing to offer a long and very informative explanation on my issue. Not too many ppl are willing to help without any financial benefit.

I am certain that if Danny was licensed in my state that I would hire him in a heartbreak.

Quick to respond and set up time with me! I needed a burned out outlet replaced and they came by a day or two later. Pricing was slightly higher than with others I reached out to but not too much. Would work with them again. Thanks!

We had a 11.30pm emergency where we lost all power. Erick came out in 45 min and got us back and running. He was honest and kept us calm. He sourced a hard to find part the next day and installed the part within 30min. We couldn't thank him more and will now use him for all our electrical needs. Would recommend to anyone! Thanks Erick!!

Scott was very communicative and able to come out on short notice, no hoops to jump through. He saw the job through until it was totally fixed and remained available and responsive during a small hiccup with the project.

Would definitely recommend.

My building super has anger issues and threatened to cancel electrician he scheduled when I asked why he never communicates with us. Super told me to find my own electrician and hung up so I asked for a quote from Danik and was contacted within a couple minutes. The electrician asked me to send him photos on the phone so that he could maybe walk me through the issue without coming out (to save service cost). While I was talking to him, the electrician that my super supposedly cancelled showed up and I had to tell Danik that their services were no longer needed and they were completely nice and professional about it. I will definitely be using them for anything in the future to avoid the headache that is my super.

A little on the pricier side, but more than worth it. Diagnosed the issue in no time. Very professional, very quick, would recommend!

Don did an amazing job installing several new circuits, light fixtures, and dimmer switches for our house.  Very professional, and prompt on responses and quotes.  Highly recommend DLP Electric and will use again.

They scheduled an appointment to come see the project, and didn't show up. I asked them what happened and they had forgotten (I get it, it can happen). Same thing second time. I tried to contact them again, no luck, no answer, no apology.

Waste of time.

Had a good experience and found the pricing very reasonable for a straightforward bit of plumbing work, though in the end I had to go with someone else due to timing changes on my side. They were very responsive and easy to discuss/talk through the task. Would definitely contact in the future, including for electrical work.

Avi is a lifesaver. His team was originally only available the following week. But when I told him I needed the light fixed in the kitchen of my elderly parents, he fit me in after a cancellation within a few hours of talking to him. Very reasonably priced. Came with 2 men to handle the kitchen light and ceiling fan installation to save on time.  Arrived on time. Very pleasant and understanding on the phone.

Katie helped me install a pendant light--I'm too nervous to do electrical stuff! Great pricing, communicative, and kind. I would definitely work with Handyma'am again if I need help with anything. Thank you!

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.

Installed 60A hardwire ChargePoint EV charger, 50' run from unfinished basement 200A main panel to attached garage.

Gladiator Electric website was easy to navigate, and clearly specified what pictures needed to be uploaded for a quote without requiring a visit.

Mike was very prompt and professional in all communications.  Dylan and Eric arrived promptly, worked diligently, were courteous, and completed the job neatly in 2 hours.  Subsequent inspection passed with flying colors.
