Best Businesses in New York

I have used Mike Hitchingham a few times, most recently to come into our apartment while we were away for several weeks to replace some under-the-cabinet lighting fixtures.  We did all correspondence by email including selecting the new fixtures (with some solid advice from Mike), getting a quotation, providing a down payment (to purchase the fixtures), and arrange with the building doorman to let Mike it.  We returned from our summer holiday this week, and the new fixtures were perfect -- brighter and better than before.  My only disappointment was that I did not have him replace all the similar lighting in the kitchen.  Nothing was out of place, all old fixtures, new boxes, etc. were left behind (neatly) so that we could verify the work, and the final bill came out far less than the quote.  Mike is 100% reliable and trustworthy; I could not recommend his work more highly.

We had an emergency electrical situation with circuit breakers at our apartment, and Izet from Titanium came over to fix it. He solved our problem quickly. Our basement is hard to get to, too. You have to take a latter down, and he had no complaints. If we have any electrical problems at all in the future, we'll definitely contact Titanium.

I cannot speak more highly of Rich. Last night several outlets were sparking in our kitchen, and we were terrified. After calling several electricians who wouldn't come by, Rich gladly offered to stop by our home the day after Blizzard Juno! Rich was kind and extremely professional on the phone, and came earlier than he told us he could. He made sure all of our outlets were fine, checked the fuse box, and tested our appliances to make sure they were not sparking. Rich was funny, professional, knowledgeable, and a hard worker, and he answered all of our questions. If you ever need an electrician, call Rich. We could not speak more highly of him. We definitely got lucky in finding him.

Professional, Courteous and pleasant to work with.  Highly recommended. After reading other reviews, I couldn't pass up to have Mickhael come to my house and install two chandeliers.

I had contacted two days prior to schedule a day to install two small Chandeliers, Mickhael responded promptly with 10minutes.  Work was done as scheduled date.  The chandeliers were installed on the ceiling very nicely without any issues.

Thank for your professional service!

Couldn't be more grateful to Ralph and Marlon for coming over (on a holiday!) and rewiring my thermostats so the heat was working properly. They were fast, friendly and the work was reasonably priced. Had heat that day! Am so appreciative and wouldn't hesitate to call them again.

Gaston from Nair came at very short notice on a Friday evening and fixed a replacement light-switch/socket that I had screwed up bringing down all the power in my apartment...  He was nice, fixed the problem, only charged me the basic (minimum) call-out fee in total and happily applied the 15% discount which i advertised on yelp.  Thank you!

my apologies to john at jem lighting he and his family experienced a flu bug

he reached out to me and set up an install appointment fast!
came installed an left me a happy satisfied customer

Nice guy, good price.  Daniel worked with my schedule so I wouldn't have to take a day off work.  Arrived on time, fair price.   Will recommend and use him again for future electrical needs.  Thanks!

Came same day to repair breakers, was fast and responsive. Chris did a great job and I will hire him again!

How incredible to find an honest and professional electrician.  My overhead lights blew and tripped the breaker.  After flipping the circuit back on they still wouldnt work. Called at 7pm and mike came by 830.  Diagnosed the problem and fixed the issue for the price quoted. In addition he fixed a non working fixture and replaced a light switch cover that was giving me problems.  Highly reccomend.

First off when you deal with CEL Electric, you're dealing with the owner of the company not just another employee. Scott has done several projects in our 120 year old brownstone and these are not simple or straightforward jobs. The building's wiring is original and needs to be handled with great care and that's exactly what we've experienced on each job he handled for us. His electrical work is first-rate and he is meticulous working with outlets and switches on old, dry plaster walls and fans on ornate ceilings and that's something often overlooked with electricians. Each and every time I've called, he's been super responsive and we've had no qualms with his quotes. No reason to even think about using anyone else and that's a great feeling.

They did a great job, fixed my hanging fixture quickly, great price, were accommodating and followed up!  Would definitely use again and recommend.

Great work, very professional, good communication, honest bill. Fast work and responsive both to messages and calls. Would hire again without a second thought!

Our thermostat wasn't working and it turned out to be an issue with the wiring between it and the furnace.  I contacted DLP that evening and they were here first thing by next morning. Don worked quickly, yet took the time to explain what he was doing. Extraordinary professionalism and great work all around. I'll definitely keep DLP at the top of my list for any electrical needs that requires a professional.  Highly recommend.

Y'all have to book these amazing electricians. Ganesh was super professional and quoted us a fair competitive price when he came to scope out our job. He was very responsive and got us all the info needed quickly for us to book the work. Then a couple days later, he sent Ajay and Trevon to our home to replace our two pendant lights. They finished the job in half the time estimated. Actually they finished in under an hour! They also cleaned up and swept. Such nice professionals to have in our home and we couldn't be happier with their work.

Great guy... Came on time, wore gloves, gloves mask and booties upon entry. Had a leak that i couldn't figure out. Water from the 2nd floor leaked into the first floor. I went ahead and cut the sheetrock on the first floor to locate the pipe. The position in which the pipes were located were extremely difficult to see let alone view.
  He did a few tests and found that that the leak in fact is not coming from the pipe which i was surprised to hear but im not a plumber so ill leave it to the expert to conclude. We went back and forth upstairs and down running the faucet, the tub, the shower, the toilet... No water was leaking. We finally splashed some water onto the tiles which i didn't even think about doing. Low and behold, the water started to leak.
  Appears the tile came loose where the water ran in between the grout allowing it to flow into the 1st floor kitchen. Not knowing what the problem is has to be the worst part. Even worse than the solution. Either way, problem solved. His main focus is plumbing so i didn't expect him to repair the tile. Will need to contact someone else for that.  
  My only complaint would be the initial visit. He wasn't there for more than 30 min and the trip charge was a bit pricey considering only troubleshooting was done and no repairs but i can't fault him for that as i knew the cost going into it and agreed.
  I would use him again in the future if i needed plumbing work. He knows his stuff, is prompt, reliable and answers his phone.

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 is amazing! I called her to help with fixing a slide-out cabinet that had come off its track, and that was not staying shut properly, as well as replacing some floor trim that had been removed when I had a new dishwasher installed. As the scheduled date approached, I kept realizing all these other things I'd need fixed! Katie told me to make a list, and when she arrived, she knocked out every item on my list, even late-breaking ones! When she didn't think one solution would work to solve a problem, she came up with another. Katie clearly has tremendous expertise, but she also was great at thinking creatively, even for tasks I hadn't told her about in advance. She was totally transparent about pricing, which I appreciated, and still got the additional tasks done in the estimated amount of time. Beyond that, she is super friendly, and someone I felt so comfortable having in my home. I've recommended Katie to other friends who have all had as excellent of an experience as I did. This might sound weird but, next time something in my apartment goes awry, I'll feel relieved that I know I can call Katie!

Roman is the best contractor I have ever dealt with in Manhattan! I first reached out to him because our fuse box kept blowing. I emailed Conquest Electric through yelp and Roman got back to me within hours.

He was able to come to the apartment on a day AND time that was convenient for me!! With his assessment, Roman explained everything so I could understand and further provided options for a solution. He then solved the problem quickly and professionally!

Soon after my initial problem, we had a set of spot lights stop working. He again came in a timely and convenient manner and left the apartment with everything fixed.

I can't say enough good things about this company. Roman's work ethic is excellent! Highly recommend!

Quick update to reinforce the five star rating. Mike and his team especially Eric are expert troubleshooters. They resolved outdoor lighting that kept having the circuit breaker tripped in no time. Efficient and reasonable rates are why this company is so busy all the time. On top of it, they are accessible and very responsive to customers. I highly recommend them for any house or commercial establishment. They are simply the best.
