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!

Jason was on time and resolved my electrical outlet and connected electrical problems right away.  While at my house he fixed a couple of other electrical issues without any incremental charges.  Both Jason and Stephen are professional and take pride in their work.  I would highly recommend using them.

Highly recommend! Mike and Jason are responsive and work quickly while still doing the job right. They did an excellent job installing recessed lighting, fans, and dimmers!

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!

No Shorts Electric completely knocked it out of the park! They updated our 50's-era electrical panel to a modern, 200-amp system for our 2-family house. Now the house is finally ready for the 21st century! Estimates are free and -- this is important -- comprehensive. I knew there wouldn't be any surprises when it was time for payment, which was the main reason I picked them over a rival firm.

Equally important, everyone, from Mike (the estimator) to Dominick and Nick (the work crew) was super friendly, respectful,  and totally professional. The minute Dominick looked me square in the eye and shook my hand when they got here, I knew I had made a great choice. I am already planning to call on them for the next phase of work.

Xavier was very professional and a pleasure to work with. He was on time, organized, proficient, neat and also very reasonable. He was able to come the same day I called. I would definitely recommend him and use him again for future projects.

Sergii did a great job!  He was prompt and completed the job very efficiently and neatly. His price was reasonable. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a Handyman.

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.

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.

Dennis and his crew did an amazing job installing my ceiling fan/light. Answered phone calls promptly, fair pricing, professional, showed up on time, and cleaned up like no one had ever been there. Can't recommend them highly enough. Will definitely use them again for any future jobs.

I cannot say enough about Eugene.  We were having a wall taken down in an apartment, and the contractor (wonderful, but not a licensed electrician) found old exposed and live wiring embedded in the wall. This was on a late Saturday afternoon. I called Eugene immediately because he was so highly rated on Yelp.  He called back in about 20 minutes and was in the apartment within 2 hours, turned off the electricity and secured the wiring.  He returned a few days later and did extensive work in the apartment for a day and a half.  He worked beautifully with the other contractors, made time and money saving suggestions, did little things like tightening fixtures without asking, and left the place cleaner than when he arrived.  He worked beautifully with his assistant, a hardworking and good humored young man. All this at very reasonable prices. I wish I could give them six stars!  I will definitely have them back again.

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.

Ciro was super responsive to my initial inquiry to replace a wired doorbell and chime box and scheduled a mutually convenient time right away. He brought both a wired and wireless option so he could get the job done regardless of wiring conditions. He was efficient, organized, pleasant to speak with, and fairly priced. I'll definitely call him again for other home maintenance projects.

Had them install a sensor light for my driveway.
Called them up, came over, he gave me a price and I hired him.
Provided the sensor-light, in a few hours the job was complete.
Would use them for other projects.

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.
