Best Businesses in New York

I simply called to get a quote and have some questions answered and Mike was beyond helpful. He took the time to ask thorough questions about the problem and appliance and instead of sending someone out and charging me $250+ just for showing up, he was honest about not being able to do the work that was required and sent me over to a couple of others who could help me. I really appreciated his honesty.

As an interior designer, I am very familiar with the range of competence and customer service of contractors in this city.  Klodian is a breath of fresh air.

I hired Klodian to install some chandeliers and sconces after completing a renovation but after seeing him work, rehired him for more and more complex projects.  We are now troubleshooting the shoddy work of the previous contractor's electrician on a Lutron Homeworks low voltage automation system.  Klodian is clearly far smarter and more knowledgeable about his craft than most.

He is deliberate, clean and respectful and I trust him in the building, in my home and most importantly, in my clients' homes.  He is professional and accommodating, proactively finds solutions to unexpected problems and does everything he can to leave a job completed without charging extra.  Sometimes, the unexpected is too involved and the proposal needs to be revisited but, knowing the industry and the craft as I do, by the time this comes up, Klodian really has put in the time to exhaust every creative attempt and is being beyond reasonable.

Finally, Klodian is personable and a good guy.  These days, the value of that can't be understated.

No sense of time. I got a quote for checking if there is work needed. However, He missed two appointments with me. Not a good way to do business.

I suggest he should hire a person for keeping track of all of his appointments and send a reminder 1 hour before.

Excellent electrician, does great work, follows through and is reasonably priced

Ralph and Marlon did an amazing job! I was expecting a big mess, not to mention an ordeal related to the repair of a ceiling fixture with 6 bulbs from the 1950s.  Ralph diagnosed the problem immediately, and with the help of Marlon, had me up and running in under 1/2 hour.
What a team!
Thank you, New York City Electricians!

Just had Gaston come and not only was he here within the hour for my electrical troubleshooting issue, he located and repaired an electrical issue that I did not know I had that could have potentially been something I would have to deal with in the future. Very patient and precise when working to make sure the job is done right. I don't usually write reviews but he deserves the praise for his work.

We bought our house and needed serious rewiring and recessed lights installation work done. John came and listened to my concerns and needs. He provided me the quote and same evening, sent me the list of materials he would require to complete the job. After delivery of materials, John was quick to install the lights and begin the rewiring work.
Our plan was to install a multitude of 3 switches, create separate lighting zones, as well as other ad-hoc ideas.
John was always willing accommodate and was able to complete the job accurately. I also want to commend him on his communication skills and quick responses at any time of day.
Will definitely turn to him for our electrical needs.

Called several times, left messages telling them I needed work done. Never heard a peep. At least call people back to tell them you are too busy.

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

Ezrick is a 5 star electrician and person. He goes above and beyond to do a great job. He also is easy to schedule with and gets a job done quickly. I highly recommend him.

Hi, I have to say,
CEL was a lifesaver.
We had 2 prior Electricians look/work on our home, and they left it worse for the wear. CEL was referred to us, and they came through spectacularly.
They replaced our panel ,added outlets and fixed our lights.
I will recommend  this company to anyone who needs Electrical help , when all others have failed

Excellent job done by Yoni.  Solved an ongoing problem we had with circuit breakers tripping in our kitchen.  Took the time to figure it out & discovered the problem wAs with the original installation where the previous contractor joined circuits together unnecessarily.  Yoni was able to straighten this out and remedy this problem with an hour.  Highly recommended.

I tried to change a light fixture in my very old walk up apartment and ended up disconnecting all the power for the whole place. I tried in vain to fix the issue before consulting yelp to bring in a professional. I called early on a Friday morning and Ilin was at my apartment within an hour. The job a diagnosed and fixed for a very reasonable price (for NYC prices anyway), the work was professional and more than I could have asked for given the short notice. If I have any further electrical work to have completed (although I learned my lesson and am not touching light fixtures in 150 year old apartments any more) I will call Ilin first.

I asked a handyman to install my ceiling fans, but once he opened up the fixtures he realized it was beyond his capacity and that an electrician was needed. A friend recommended Don. I called him and he came quickly for a free estimate, then got me into his busy schedule a couple days later. He arrived when he said he'd arrive and charged what he said he'd charge. I will be using him in the future, for sure.

Licensed and insured reliable
Very detailed and clean job to the end
They make good suggestions and friendly
Will use again and refer to friends and family

Came on time.  Took measurements.  Re screened my window the same day.  I was satisfied with the work.

When a houseguest plugged a charger into a bathroom socket and half the apartment lost power, it was naturally alarming as we didn't know what the scope of the ultimate problem would be. Having just moved to the neighborhood, we weren't certain who to consult and after seeing Electrific's positive reviews and getting one more word of mouth reference we reached out. Avi was totally up front about the rate and was communicative the entire way through, from scheduling to explaining what he was testing and the scope of the likely issue, and his final labor + materials cost felt more than fair. We'll certainly call him again (but hope that it's more of a planned event next time)!

Yes, ma'am!!! would be my answer if you ask whether you should use Handyma'am.  Katie hung two ceiling light fixtures and installed two dimmer switches in my Manhattan condo, and she did a neat and proper installation, even with one of the old fixtures proving to be a challenge to remove.  Her fine art background came as no surprise to me when I saw the care and attention to detail with which she worked. Her communication skills before and during the job were a total breath of fresh air after I'd dealt with workers who left me waiting all day and never showed up -- and others who grunted and didn't speak English when they did show up.  For anything that may come up in the future, I will definitely keep contact info for the Handyma'am handy!

Called last minute and Roman sent someone within 2 hours. His guy did a great job. I would definitely recommend!

My coworker recommended Mike and Gladiator Electric, and I can't thank him enough for the referral. Not only does Gladiator Electric do excellent work, but Mike does something miraculous that others don't: he COMMUNICATES. You'll receive responses quickly, you'll receive estimates and you'll receive communications about impending visits. There's no wondering or hoping, there's just KNOWING. I'll never understand why technicians in all fields don't seem to care about that one important concept, but communication makes all the difference in the world. And that's why Gladiator Electric is so busy and will stay that way. Thanks, Mike!
