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!

I had a great experience working with Jason and Stephen. They were both very thorough prior to even scheduling a date to perform the work. They carefully explained each product they were installing. And to help save me time and money, asked to see pictures of the area and went over a lot of the details beforehand.

They arrived promptly at the scheduled time. While at the house, they worked efficiently and cleaned up after each part of the work was completed. I would gladly work with them again on future projects around the house.

We recently moved, and we did a couple of works in the new property, so I had to deal with several contractors, Malfettone Electric, was the best to work with.
They deliver what promise and beyond, their work ethic is impeccable: they arrive on time, they are careful of the furniture, they execute creatively to take care of your things, they suggest alternatives... And they are very patient!
They make sure you are happy, even if that means extra work.  
Mike is always on top of everything, but I have to say that the people who work with him, were also great: very respectful, detail oriented and leave everything clean.
I not only would recommended them, I'd hire them again and again.
I wish all my contractors were like Malfettone Electric.

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!

The first time I hired No Shorts Electric, I needed last minute help installing an electric oven that was delivered the day before Thanksgiving. The installers from the company I purchased it from couldn't figure out how to properly install it. Dominick was able to accomodate my family the day before a major holiday and literally saved the day for us! Since then, we have hired the company for a few other projects and each time they are prompt and professional. I wouldn't even think about hiring another company! Definitely recommend 100%!

this is a neutral review. seemingly a nice guy. they charge you a per visit fee so even if they don't fix anything you will still have to pay that. fine. he wants you to trust his work which seems like a reasonable ask. however, for a ceiling fan replacement, he wanted to charge me once for the diagnosis for the exact problem and then a second time for the installation of the fan. mind you a per visit fee is about $100. I asked for an all in price and he was offended that I didn't want to be billed multiple times for the same job and to install a ceiling fan? He said that he couldn't work under the circumstances and told me to find someone else to finish the job. He was reasonable enough to not charge me for the diagnosis visit for which nothing was fixed but he had issue with my pointing out the multiple visit fee. I'll let you decide.

Serge arrived exactly on time and worked efficiently. Replaced our vanity and sink with a set from IKEA which mounts to the wall (no legs), applied silicone cleanly, very happy with the result. Also communicated clearly in terms of materials and pricing. I would hire Serge again for future tasks.

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.

Alex was the only one able/willing to come same day (Sunday).  He diagnosed and fixed our washing machine very quickly.  Very happy with the service, would call him again for any future appliance repairs.

We needed a dedicated line installed for a new refrigerator and new wiring for our central air conditioner. Daniel and his guys did such an incredible job that we had them come back to set up our new outdoor lighting. They are very professional, efficient and respectful of property. Everything was cleaned up; no mess was found anywhere. The new lights were done to our exact specifications; we couldn't be happier. If you need electrical work done, they are the guys to call.

Excellent service.  I needed the light fitting in my kitchen replacing with a new one, and the dimmer switch replacing with an on/switch.  They called an hour before to confirm the appointment and turned up on time.  They did the work quickly and efficiently, and were friendly, polite and courteous.  It took less than an hour to do the work so charged me the $150 first hour fee.  Gambi were everything you hope for in a service and I would definitely recommend them.

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.

My tenants bathtub was clogged.  I called handyman guy and Ciro gave me an estimate over the phone.  He came to fix the problem.  Bathtub was unclogged!!!  Very reliable. Stuck to the price that was quoted over the phone. He also helped me with my sink too for a very minimal charge.  I will use him again for any other handyman work that I made need.

I hired this contractor to replace my circuit boxes and to bring in an extra 100 amps of electricity.  It was a seven day job.   The work they performed was done perfectly.  Pasquale who owns the business with his father was a pleasure to deal with.   They arranged for the building department to inspect the job and of course I received an approval for the work on the first inspection.  He labeled all the circuit breakers and all the boxes were installed level.  Great attention to details.  They covered the floor and put up plastic and left my house broom clean.   Pasquale also fixed a few other small  electrical problems I was having without charge.   If you have a big job to do, please ask Pasquale to show you the work he did in my brownstone in Park Slope.

Frontier responded to my message through the Yelp messaging system.

I called and they sent out an electrician very quickly.

Jeff diagnosed the problems, and acquired and installec the replacement parts needed.

Jeff also made some very helpful suggestions which are much appreciated.

I Highly Recommended Frontier for fast, efficient, and friendly service.
