Best Businesses in New York

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!

Have hired Jason and Stephen several times--these guys are fantastic. Good people and good electricians. They know what they are doing and they do it well, quickly, efficiently and with zero drama.

Pricing is fair and transparent. Scheduling is straightforward. And I really appreciate that they always try to understand the job in detail when I call them and before they show up. If it's something that requires some pre-planning / pre-work, they'll tell you--saves time and money. Once on the job, they communicate very well how long certain things will take and whether something is worth doing or not. Again, saves me time and money.

Easily among the best contractors I've dealt with.

Really happy with Malfettone. I found them via review sites (yelp and google). I needed some minor electrical problems that were picked up during a house inspection in order to proceed with the sale. They read through the report and were over in less than 24 hours where there to fix it! Amazing.

When I looked at their portfolio of work, it seemed like they do much more larger projects. So I was a bit worried they would not prioritize my piddly little issues like rewiring outlets, but they did!

Also, I read through the negative reviews and I didn't experience their complaints (with was lack of communication). They always answered a call or returned it within a half hour. Same with email, texts and invoicing. Absolutely no problems there, I found them incredibly responsive and quick. Would def recommend to people.

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!

My husband and I needed an electrician to provide an electrical upgrade quote during our final walkthrough. We did an internet search and really liked the reviews left for No Shorts Electric. I made an appointment with Mike over the phone and he was able to meet us early in the morning. During his inspection he provided us with a detailed plan on what was needed and what could be done with our home and garage. After receiving the estimate we proceeded to setup a date to have the work done. I was worried that it would take a few days, but Mike brought a whole team to knock the job out within a day. We are very satisfied with the work of his team and would recommend them to anyone in need of an electrician.

Working with Xpert electric has been such a wonderful and worry-free experience so far! Xavier and his crew are super knowledgable, efficient and punctual! I was very impressed by the amazing work they did for us! Every detail shows their professionalism. The most important values that really matter to me are also their kindness, trustworthy and truly genuine attitude that made us decide to work with them, which was the best decision we made during this project. I will definitely use them again in the future and I will highly recommend Xpert Electric to anyone who need electrical work done in the future as well. Thank you!!

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!

Jaime from Fuentes Family Electrical helped me out big time. We were ordering new appliances and needed to coordinate the specs for the machines with the power drops in my house. I was told by the appliance store that I would need to do some electrical work to make it happen.

Jamie made it extremely simple. He was helpful, very personal, interested, super knowledgable, and just nice. He offered to come over and assess the problem by morning, and even to walk me through it on the phone right there.

I actually didn't need his services in the end, but I will be calling for all of my electrical needs in the future.

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.

Dennis and his employees were wonderful and did a great job. Dennis was quick to stop by to evaluate the problem and also scheduled his crew right away. The guys in his crew were courteous, efficient and hard working. I was extremely happy with the service and would want them to help fix any other electrical issues I may have in the future.

These guys are great-  reasonably priced and easy to work with.  They've done several small jobs around our townhouse in Prospect Heights

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.

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!

We called Ceriello to replace two burnt-out outlets in our kitchen. They sent someone the same day, and the guy they sent, Nick, was friendly, knowledgable, and had the job done quickly and efficiently. I can't recommend Ceriello highly enough! We'll definitely use them again!

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!
