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 contacted Jason in the afternoon and he was back to me by evening about several small job. By noon the next day he had someone on site to do them. Terrific service. Job well done.

I've used Malfettone Electrical for several jobs now and am very happy with the results. They are not the cheapest, but they are highly professional, extremely efficient and very clean. Estimates and invoices are issued by email and itemized down to the last dollar. Mike is very knowledgeable and was able to give me good advice about creatively wiring some difficult spots in my old townhouse. His team is entirely trustworthy and extremely efficient, respectful of the homeowner's property and, really, if it wasn't for the bright new lights, I wouldn't have known they'd been in my house at all.

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%!
Valley Stream, NY 11581
These electricians were excellent. They answered our phone call right away, truly asked several questions in order to get the right idea about what was going on, and we set up an appointment for the following day. We had to change the time and they were very accommodating and PUNCTUAL. They arrived right when they said they would. Their prices were reasonable and they took the time to explain what was going on. They did their best to work with our very old wiring. In the future, we are going to have to replace our wiring and we will 100% be calling them to do the job. I especially appreciated the fact that they took the time to talk to us about what they were doing and why and did so in lingo we could understand. Call these guys if you have an electrical problem, hands down.

Serge was very efficient and honest. He came on time around 10 a.m. and left his tools and the ladder after seeing the wall heights. We have 12 ft walls so he needed a tall ladder. He returned after 45 mins as there is no free parking near our Condominium and he had to park almost 7/8 blocks away. He put up all the paintings as well as the Zebra skin on the wall properly. We were delighted with his work. He didn't waste any time even though he was working on an hourly basis. He also started his time after parking the car.
I certainly recommend him highly for any installation job.

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.
200 Riverside Blvd Manhattan, NY 10069
We have been using them for many years. They have done work outside putting in garden lights and inside upgrading our panel in garage (I guess for voltage). Also have done minor repairs in the house. Just replaced an old switch on the bedroom wall that turned the chandelier over the bed on. Dennis (both of them) are easy to contact and set up a time. Staff is friendly and do the best to clean up. Highly recommend them

I called Mr. Tapia yesterday and we set up an appointment for today to fix an outlet at my uncle's apartment. He and his associate Rashid came in just at the agreed time. They fixed the particular outlet plus thightened a couple more that were loose; they also installed a couple of light bulbs which I was afraid to do because the ceilings are very high. I asked Mr. Tapia to check my aunt's apartment next door since she also had a problem with the ceiling light. Not only they fixed it but he also went to Lowe's and bought a new lamp to replace the old one completely since the wires were pretty burnt. The lamp was only $15 and he kept the cost within the original estimate of one hour althought the entire process took longer than that. I was very pleased with the experience and will certainly call them again if I have any future electric problems. They were both very pleasant and profesional. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest and responsable electricians.

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.
1806 Paulding Ave Bronx, NY 10462
Friendly, reliable, and responsive handyman. He got the work done efficiently and we are very happy with the quality of work! He has already completed multiple jobs for my moms house and I only found him two weeks ago. He put up a new towel rod through tile, installed a new mailbox, fixed our leaky basement pipe, and helped with a minor repair on our screen door. Highly recommend for all the odd jobs you have around your home.

I called Ceriello and they gave me an appointment for the next business day (which was Tuesday after a holiday) 8:30am. Marvin came by and saw it was a bigger problem so we rescheduled for the next day same time. He came back, did some trouble shooting and while this old building requires a bigger job, he explained very clearly what would need to happen, provided good options and came up with a reasonably priced and option to complete in the meanwhile. It was all done safely and clearly. Highly recommended.
