Best Electricians in Pennsylvania
Corey & Alex arrived at my house on time & well prepared for the job. I had 3 ceiling fans installed- the wiring had to be run to the ceiling, holes cut, switches added- drop cloths covered everything, all holes patched, everything cleaned up. Also multiple outlets were replaced. Everything was done efficiently & with care. Corey & Alex are great guys, considerate, polite & knowledgable about their jobs. I am happy I hired Gen 3 Electric & will call them again for sure.

Ran into an issue with a light fixture in my home that popped and then was emitting a pretty nasty odor. Called Greg at nearly 7:00 pm on a Friday and he picked up, and walked me through everything that I needed to safely remove the light/fixture and make sure that everything was squared away and safe until I could replace it. He answered all of my questions and even gave me a recommendation on where to get parts. I cannot recommend Greg highly enough - if you need electric work or if you have questions or concerns, make him your first call.

As a business owner for over 20 years I have seen a lot of self employed people come and go. What makes a good company survive while others flounder ?? A good product, a good price, and standout people that you can know and trust..
I had used Lauterborn Electric once for a job (over a year ago) and I was happy with the upfront, honest and friendly way in which they presented a resolve to my issue. They did a good enough job that I referred them to a friend....who was happy that I did.
I REALLY needed the Lauterborn Electricricians when I recently had a fire in my place of business. Larry Lauterborn answered his phone (which is a good indication of how their business is run) and he began to help that day with advice on what steps to take in my situation. They came out the next day with a quote for the repairs and when I agreed, they started the following day. I could blah blah blah you with all the details but I think you get where it's going.
He has his 2 sons that work for him also and its nice to see that they are walking right in his footsteps. Kudos to you Larry, you are a good electrician and an even better role model for your well mannered boys.
Can't speak highly enough about the company and I won't be calling anyone else for electrical work.

Jim & Sons did a variety of electrical work including installing a dedicated line for a bedroom, and building/wiring a new bathroom exhaust vent unit in an aging house. Prices were very reasonable and were laid out in a very thorough estimate.
On the day the work was done, the electricians showed up on time, and went through everything to make sure it was up to my expectations
Will definitely use them again for any further electrical needs!

Buckle up - long review incoming.
Had JDV out to do an estimate - Mike arrived promptly, was professional and courteous, and provided information throughout his time here. However, that is where the positive part ends.
After performing the estimate. Mike sat down with me and presented two packages - one for 16000 dollars and another for 3200. The lesser estimate was to replace outlets and replace expired hardwired smoke/CO detectors. These detectors go from anywhere between 40-55 dollars (retail, not wholesale) depending on the brand, with labor being roughly 1 hour to replace all necessary components (there were 8). JDV wanted 3200 Dollars to replace those and roughly 25 outlets (only 1 of those being GFI) inside of the home. This is a total of about 4 hours' worth of work (generously and assuming brittle wiring (which I likely have).
That was bad enough.
The higher (and considerably more insane) estimate - 16k - included a panel replacement - a 50-foot junction box run to replace an old fuse sub-panel, (5 breakers total) - run a grounding wire, and do the aforementioned work contained in the smaller estimate. He also noted, corrosion (nothing reaching the buss bar or any corrosion besides humidity (a flex seal fix) - and explained that I would need a new panel and new fireguard breakers.
Please keep in mind - an 80 slot 200 amp panel is 130 dollars at home depot (with standard GE breakers - which are fine of course). Additional breakers as needed are cheap and effective. Additionally, it is noted on the estimate that if any fireguard panels actually trip - it is roughly 400 dollars (per breaker!) for them to fix that issue. Using that math - JDV wanted roughly 8 THOUSAND dollars (conservative) in labor to perform the panel/breaker change)
He also pushed a whole house surge protector (I run UPS on all of my electronics already) - and their service plan which includes yearly inspections.
When I asked him to provide a breakdown for parts and labor - Mike explained that JDV does not provide that and that the estimates include cost of doing business, and of course their 3-year warranty (keep in mind most products serviced come with their own manufacturer's warranty. Please keep in mind that they only warranty their service (Ie. Actual work) for one year.
I believe my internal thought process was that I could BECOME an electrician AND perform the work for about the cost of the estimate. I believe what I actually asked is do people actually pay you those prices?
I have owned multiple houses and have has almost all of the work done described in the estimate on one property or another. I have never encountered an estimate even in the realm of what JDV quoted me. His reticence to break down the estimate further cemented my skepticism.
I am sure the work is top-notch based on reviews and how thorough the inspection was. I was floored by his pricing. I called another electrician with similarly strong reviews - and provided him with the breakdown of what JDV quoted me. For the SAME work minus the service plan or whole house surge protector - I was quoted a respectable 2300 dollars. Same warranty, same service window.
The moral of the story - ask for a breakdown of services, and please make sure you do your homework before agreeing to pay that type of pricing. There are much more reasonable estimates to be had.

Very happy with my experience! They were quick to respond and give us a quote. I needed track lights installed the day after we received a quote, and they were able to make it happen. The electricians were professional and efficient and the lighting looks great. I would definitely recommend.

My Wife has been on my back for 2 years about this chest freezer we purchased but needed a dedicated electrical outlet line for before hooking it up. The freezer had been sitting due to the fact I was dreading looking for an Electrician to do the wiring. So many contractors waste your time by not responding, not showing up, inaccurate pricing, incomplete work, and of course shoddy workmanship. The research process in finding a contractor is very tedious because you want to avoid any of the above from becoming your reality. I am ecstatic, thankful, and joyous that my vetting process matched me with FMJ Electrical. Here's why:
Easy & Thorough Communication - I was able to submit my inquiry via yelp. We then spoke by phone to make sure all details and information was clear.
Fast Scheduling - Was able to fit me in the schedule upon talking to him.
Prompt - Contacted me the night before to remind me of the appointment. That showed me they valued not only my time, but also their time as well. Arrived on time the day of appointment and was ready to work.
Excellent Work - Flawlessly performed my new outlet installation. Ran it directly to the box inside the wall. Another quote I received from another provider would run it through tubing outside the wall and have the outlet external on top of the wall. FMJ did everything behind the wall and recessed the actual outlet. Also, the placement of the outlet was better than what I had imagined. I thought it would be higher up the wall for him to save time. He actually lowered more towards the ground which made less stress on the plug. Beautiful!
Price - I was quoted an excellent price for the work I needed done. Work was completed, I paid the bill, FMJ gets paid, my Wife stops nagging me, everyone wins!!!!
Bottom line......give FMJ Electrical a call or drop a line to them on Yelp if you want your electrical needs done right, at a great price, and on time!

Let just start with GE Electrical Services saved the day......Monday 20, 2020 we were doing a small plumbing job that just consist of adding shut off vales....unknowing to us the water dripped down in the basement and got on wires that were old, rusted and exposed. It cause half of our building to go out and start an electrical spark, we thought as we smelled the burnt wires. We had to think fast and called several electrical companies and did not have any luck, mind you this was on MLK holiday at 6:30 at night. I looked on Yelp and came across GE Electrical Services and our Hero Edmond the service manager answered the phone and said he would be right over. He stated it would only take him 20 min to arrive and once he did he kicked right into action, he identified the issue and stated that there was a fire in the wall. He worked quickly to cut the power to the dangerous old, rusted and exposed wires to ensure safety. He also let us know that 3 new lines would have to be ran and that he would email us the cost and schedule us for his next appointment Wednesday 22, 2020. Edmond and his company GE Electrical Services came and got the job done very professional and friendly. The services they provided , excellent customer service and reasonable prices I would recommend them to all and will be using them for any future services. Thanks GE Electrical Services You Rock!!!

CJ did an awesome job running new wiring from my panel to a new outlet for a sauna I am installing. He was attentive to detail, clean work, no damage to walls - looks like he was never here. Highly recommend for quality work at good price. Responded to me an completed the job in less than 24hrs from my first outreach.

PG came out to restore power to our doorbell. They replaced the transformer quickly and without issue. They were right on time, professional, and did good work at a good price. Also good communication
Philadelphia, PA
I'd call them....amazing. The tech was very professional, knew exactly what to do, and completed the job. The cost was quite reasonable, as well. Our tech, Hector, arrived exactly when we were told. The team at Thomas Edison were really nice and easy to talk with. So, yeah, amazing.

Wonderful experience from start to finish! I so appreciate the great communication and follow through. So many contractors have literally no showed with no explanation so having a reliable company is SO refreshing! Eduardo was so amazing! Worked efficiently and respectfully. Even helped me take down some lighting fixtures I couldn't reach to clean and put them back up. Pointed out a hazardous outlet in the bath that needed GFI and didn't charge a ridiculous price to do it. I love these guys!! Thank you!!

Service was fast and the electrician was knowledgeable and thorough in diagnosing and resolving several wiring issues in my older home.

The Yelp community came through again! I used the message a project Yelp function to EP Electric for an outdoor electrical outlet problem. EP Electric responded within the time they said they would, and then called when scheduled two days later for a consultation.
I gave another description of the problem, and Andi informed me of the initial cost to come out and advised me of the Yelp coupon which I had known about. Anything above that cost would be discussed before the work would be done.
I made an appointment to have EP Electric come out, and Andi and his assistant showed up as scheduled. His communication beforehand to come to my house also was very good.
Fortunately for me, my problem was easy for Andi to resolve and the breaker only needed replacing. The whole thing was done in less than 30 minutes right before a super-drenching downpour. Good thing since it was an outdoor plug problem!
I'd highly recommend EP Electric. Very good communication and quick service. The right way to do business.

I relied on the yelp reviews of this company as I needed an electrician and I haven't had the best of luck with past contractors. Married 2 Electric was awesome! Rod answered his phone right away when I called and the electrician Todd was on time, super helpful, knowledgeable and friendly! Issues fixed quickly and he was considerate and clean with his work. I will use them in the future and would recommend to anyone. Thank you!!

Joel was great. Had an issue with lights on my deck. I thought it might be the transformer but decided to wait and let Joel figure it out. Just a short, no new transformer needed. His fee was less than a new transformer I was ready to buy. Thanks Joel.

Love this company and the two staff electricians that were dispatched to my home. I was pretty nervous to contact an electrician from an online google search, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were honest, fast, explained well and repaired shoddy electrical work that I had done. I am truly grateful that they quickly restored electricity to my home, in time for my first Thanksgiving in my new home!
