Best Businesses 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.

A great resource for your electrical needs. We worked with Sein Me on the installation of 4 ceiling lights in our hallway. Prompt and professional interaction the entire time. We will use again!

The best electricians in New Jersey! Jason and his brother Stephen are wonderful to work with. I would definitely recommend them to my family & friends because the impeccable electrical work they do will keep my family safe. Their quality of work gives me peace of mind, and that is priceless. They are very professional and a pleasure to work with!! I would definitely hire them again!!

Malfettone Electric was recommended to us by a friend when I was looking for someone to fix our kitchen light (we attempted to change the bulbs first but that was not the issue). Mike responded promptly and his team came to the rescue quickly. They resolved the problem quickly, fixed the light and now I don't have to cook with candles anymore! They were very professional and the price seemed fair. I would definitely go back with any electrical issue in the future.

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!

Really great service from Husnain! He was quick, efficient, price is fair, and very communicative. Thanks for your help!

We called No Shorts to come upgrade our electrical panel and they did a great job! We originally expected to have our electricity off for about 8 hours, but it only ended up being about 5 hours. They were professional and clean and did a great job!

These electricians were excellent. They answered our phone call right away, truly asked several questions in order to get the right idea about what was going on, and we set up an appointment for the following day. We had to change the time and they were very accommodating and PUNCTUAL. They arrived right when they said they would. Their prices were reasonable and they took the time to explain what was going on. They did their best to work with our very old wiring. In the future, we are going to have to replace our wiring and we will 100% be calling them to do the job. I especially appreciated the fact that they took the time to talk to us about what they were doing and why and did so in lingo we could understand. Call these guys if you have an electrical problem, hands down.

I highly recommend Serge to anyone looking for his services! I needed my TV mounted, and he not only responded right away, but made the process seamless for me. I messaged him on a Saturday and had my installation on Tuesday.
After he mounted the TV and left, I realized I actually wanted it to be lower. I messaged Serge and he came back right away! He re-mounted the TV to my satisfaction and I'm left with a great viewing experience.
He also gave me some tips for shelving and lighting that I could install, so I may be giving him a call in the future!

We called this company based on Yelp reviews in a pinch when the old chandelier in our new house caught fire at 7:30 pm on a weekday. No kidding. We looked at 24-hour electricians with five-star reviews and Fuentes was one of them. I called, Jamie answered, I told him the issue and that I wanted the chandelier removed tonight and to go to sleep knowing there wasn't a wiring issue I needed to worry about overnight. He gave me a reasonable price to come over and diagnose the problem and said it would cost a bit more to install a new light and dimmer (once he got here and he figured out what the problem was). He was prompt, knowledgeable, friendly, and informative. We will definitely call again! Highly recommended.

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.

I had a problem changing a light switch in my kitchen. Called York Electric.  The electrician, Tommy, walked me through it over the phone. He was patient and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing any type of electrical work.

I spent a while trying to track down an electrician who actually had a phone and would actually call back. It's not easy! Then I found Gambi on yelp. They picked up the phone, scheduled an appointment, showed up and did the work. Eugene was my guy and he was terrific, he explained everything, gave me choices about how to handle issues and was clear about costs. Btw 175 for coming to the house and 100 each hour after that. Totally worth it for the work they did.

Rob Ferrito owns the company. Extremely professional in a world where contractors are no longer professional. He'll come at the agreed time, finish on the agreed finish date, and clean up behind him. He is a Professional Electrician. I could not recommend another electrician more highly. However, the service and reputation will cost you. His employees are as professional as he. You want an cheap price, call another electrician. You want an excellent job, call him.

I found Ciro through Yelp and so glad I did! He was quick to respond via Yelp and diagnosed the issue with my sink with a photo and video and able to provide an estimate which was much more reasonable than others. He kept me posted on his timeframe to arrive which I appreciated. He completed the job efficiently and charged me the quoted price. Happy to have found a reliable handyman for the future!

To install Nest thermostats to an old heating system with separate zones will often bring a few surprises, as in my home, but which Frank and Nick addressed with competence and professionalism. The heating works well BECAUSE Frank insisted they stayed until old switches were replaced, kept communicating with us and only left once they were sure that everything was in order. Thank you!

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!
