Best Electricians in Pennsylvania
Gen 3 has been our go-to electrical company for years now. Their work and customer service is by far the most dependable home services year after year. Not only has work at our house been extraordinary, but work as conducted at four family member homes has been outstanding, safe, and complete time and agin. Can not recommend the extended team enough!

I used Greg Avakian twice, but didn't join Yelp until now, so I'm giving one review.
The first time, he added a dedicated line for my home office, to run my computers from. I loved the fact that he colored coded the plates, which makes it easy to remember which four outlets are for computers, and which 8 are for general usage (yes... this is a real office in my home).
The work was performed in a timely manner, everything promised was delivered, and the room was immaculate when he was done (rarely seen by other contractors).
I was so happy, than when we made the decision to upgrade our service and replace the electrical panel, the choice of which contractor to use was simple - Greg.
This was a much more complex job, and again Greg shone. The work was completed on budget, in the time frame promised, and perfectly done. The garage was cleaner than when he came in - which was a nice bonus :)
I very strongly recommend Greg Avakian for any electrical needs. He was professional, courteous, polite, and an absolute pleasure to deal with. He answered every question we had, providing very clear and understandable explanations. This was probably the first time I dealt with a contractor who was so incredibly NICE to work with. In the past I've had to deal with some people who may have delivered good work, but were gruff and uncommunicative. Greg encouraged communication between us - I will only use him for any future work.

Couldn't be happier with these guys - flexible scheduling, friendly, and knowledgeable.
I hope I won't need their services again anytime soon, but if I do, I won't hesitate to use them again.
I highly recommend Lauterborn Electric for your skilled electrician needs!!!

Quick turn around between appointment call and actual visit. Service man was professional and neat.

This company charges a $49 fee for coming out and giving an estimate, which is creditable against the job if you hire them. The fee they quoted for the job I wanted done wasn't just high; it was utterly absurd. I got another licensed electrician to do the job for less than one quarter of their quoted price. Their electrician also began trying to up-sell me on other services the minute he walked in, before even looking at the job he was called to quote on. In my experience this is a racket to collect $49 estimating fees without doing any work. Stick with contractors who provide free estimates.

Tony came out right away be because half of my power was going out sporadically. Because I did mess with the fuse box, he was unable to tell what the issue was 100% so after resetting the meter and putting the power back on, he said to call him right away when it happened again and not touch a thing. He didn't charge me at all for the visit! Next day, it happened again and I called. Tony sent Edison to my home, who was very professional and found the issue in the kitchen outlet and fixed it. Tony and Edison were both friendly, they explained what they were doing, and beyond reasonable with price. Will definitely use them again if needed. 5 stars!

They grounded and updated the whole house in 2 days. Now we're safe thanks to FMJ. They are nice and reliable as well.

Whoever initially wired the house we bought wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, so they installed an outlet meant for a range in the laundry room. I needed to have that outlet swapped out for the right type.
I found GE on yelp, they offered a great rate, and off we went. They were extremely punctual and respectful of the house (they brought shoe covers!) and replaced it quickly. They even pointed out some other issues with the wiring, which I may have them take care of in the future.
I didn't have the right outlet or cord for the dryer--they had an outlet in their truck and put it in! They also came back a couple hours later once I had the right dryer cord, to finish the job.
I can't recommend them enough. Super efficient, professional, and a great job. I'll definitely be using them again in the future.

Very professional, knowledgeable, and handy. Affordable and well worth the money. CJ is so warm and charming. He came to check out the circuit breaker, his original job for coming to my home. Well I had a ring nest doorbell that had been sitting on my table for almost a year and CJ was more than happy to oblige me. Thank you CJ, you're the best. Will definitely be acquiring services from here on out. Gotta give a shout out to Pops as well. My motto now is One and Dunn!!!

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

After talking to the owner of the company I've got to change my review for this company Steve said he would do whatever he could to help us now that's good service. I hope to b doing business with them real soon

So please explain to me why a business located in Princeton won't service a residence in Trenton claiming that it's not in their service area?? Mind you I used Angie's List and this company was the very first based on my zip code and the fact that it's only like a 15 min drive. REALLY!!! You don't deserve my business anyway!! I had to pick a star so there you go.

Thomas Edison Electric came out on a Saturday and replaced two light switches in my house. The gentleman was right on time, very pleasant and professional. These light switches are in my kitchen and very important. I have nothing but good things to say.

Andi came out to install an outdoor light, and find the route of a problem with some old wiring. Both tasks completed successfully. He did a third while on location when asked. The company was very quick to respond to initial email and they set up a very quick appointment. Andi was very knowledgeable and extremely efficient. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

My wife called on a Monday for a baseboard heater malfunction issue, and the technician was out the very next day. Professional, safe, courteous and reasonably priced for the project. Highly recommend Married 2 Electric for your needs. They will be fair and won't try to sell you on unnecessary work at your home.
(FYI, mask worn the entire time he was on our property. Even when outside on the phone).

Joel and his team are highly knowledgeable, communicative, respectful, and price their work competitively. They even offered ways to reduce the cost of our job. We had them install a 240v outlet in the garage for an EV charger, a 240v forced air heater in the basement, along with a couple other smaller jobs. They identified and fixed an unrelated safety issue with our electrical panel while they were at it. Working with them has been one of the most pleasant contractor experiences in years. I feel that they gave our home the same attention to detail they would give to their own. I highly recommend Aratech services to anyone looking to hire an electrician.

I called this company on a hot summer day when my tenant called me and told me her power went off. I was running around town with my two kids, so in a hurry I decided to call the first company I saw on yelp. I really wish I had taken more time to look for a more reputable company.
First, be aware that this company has multiple listings for different locations all over the city. If you look at their other listings, you will see the many poor reviews that they have received.
I received multiple phone calls from different people after my initial service request. They repeatedly told me that there is a $165 charge for emergency dispatch, and that once they do an inspection, they will let me know what the cost of the actual work will be. When the technician got to the house, a guy named Steven Miller called me and said he wanted me to pay the dispatch fee upfront before anything is done. He then sent me an email to get my written authorization to charge the credit card. All of this seemed a bit odd to me... the multiple phone calls, the written authorization, the fee up front... but I didn't think too much of it and just proceeded.
About 10 minutes after I paid for the dispatch fee, Steve calls me back with his technician on the phone to tell me that they have to charge me another fee for the diagnostic. I told them that my understanding was after spending $165 they would be able to tell me what's wrong and give me an estimate on the cost of the work. He then proceeded to repeat everything that he and another one of his employees had already told me over the phone multiple times. I told him that I did not feel comfortable proceeding forward and that I was going to call around to see if other companies have similar practices. He then had his other employee (a woman with a courteous voice) call me to try to reason with me. I told her again that I was going to call around and if this is common practice, then that's fine, but if not then I will be leaving a long review for them.
I got off the phone with the woman and called another local electrician. This man was honest, prompt and straightforward. He came out within half hour and fixed the problem for me under 10 minutes and charged me a third of what Thomas Edison had quoted me for simply coming out and finding out what the problem is (not including any work done).
Needless to say, I will be sticking with my honest electrician from now on. Steve did call me again to tell me that he would not charge me the $165 as a courtesy to make me happy. I thought for a second about not leaving a bad review, but I decided that I cannot let this company get away with unethical practice. This company needs to know that people are not stupid and this kind of bait and switch business practice will only backfire. Simple honesty, trustworthiness and respect for people is the way to go.
