Best Electricians in Pennsylvania
Reached out to Electrical Solutions to install a Tesla Home Charger. Since my breaker box was near capacity, the technicians offered to do some slight modifications to avoid installing another breaker box. They were quite professional and got the job done in a timely manner. Unlike other companies who offer coupons with stringent stipulations and disclaimers, Electrical Solutions honored a coupon for 1st time customers with no problems!

JDog was a true Godsend. On the heels of a terrible moving experience, I called JDog to help me reassemble some furniture. Buck was so accommodating, he moved some things around on the schedule and had a guy at my apartment in a half hour! In 90 minutes, Matt assembled my son's bed (a loft with a slide-not easy!), our king size platform bed frame and hung a huge mirror. He was polite but got the job done swiftly and professionally. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Happy to support our servicemen and women!

We had a long list of items to take care of in our new house including adding some lighting and outlets, installing dimmer switches, and putting in a new switch for the kitchen light. This group of guys did a great job for us, were very friendly, and were very reasonable with the price. I will definitely call them again in the future.

HIGGINS ELECTRIC -- DREAM TEAM TURNED IT AROUND. Must read!
New to the Media area, just closed on a condo and 1 day later ...
ELECTRIC ISSUES!
With specific electric outage switch issues throughout the new (but dated) place (ie kitchen, dining room and bedrooms).
I thought I was being Punk'd - I haven't even unpacked!
BASED ON A REFERRAL
Called HIGGINS ELECTRIC - I spoke to Theresa (so nice and solution-oriented), who put me at ease and ultimately dispatched some of their best electricians, Krista and Bob!
Krista and Bob both came (after confirming every step of the way via text or call/ their arrival, next steps etc)... masked, helpful, kind, friendly- PROFESSIONAL -- straight to the point. Like CSI-Where's this issue!? What did you experience, etc They both went to their detective work. Very thorough, asking questions and checking outlets and overhead wiring, panels, etc.
THE SOLVE/RESOLUTION
HIGGINS ELECTRIC TEAM soon identified a a random switch outlet in the condo that was rigged to control all those rooms (who knew?)
HIGGINS ELECTRIC TEAM soon updated my outdated electric wiring: replacing my kitchen ballast and switch; swapped out my dining room fixture; and updated the master bed room light/ceiling fan with LED/remote control fixture!
THE SWEET SPOT
From being so very upset, frustrated and despondent about the electricity in my 1st new place, I was immediately transformed to a place of THANKS AND APPRECIATION above and beyond! and loving the fabulous and functional updates!
HIGGINS ELECTRIC TEAM ROCKS! I recently learned this is a family owned business operating in The area over 75 years - and still going strong! you will see why... They deliver! they are knowledgeable! they are Professional and fair!

16 Mount Pleasant Rd, Aston, PA 19014
After a wireless switch in my home failed, and having been stood up twice by other electricians, I called Street Bros after seeing the great reviews. Eric, the electrician, was quite courteous, efficient, and clear in his explanation of my electrical issue- which turned out to be a finicky switch. It helps that SB's methodology for pricing (time & materials basis) was explained to me before I scheduled to have Eric come out. Should I have troubles in the future, Street Bros will be the company I call first.

I can't really speak for this company's quality of work but I can speak about their lack of professionalism. Had a leak that caused water damage to dry wall ceiling and contacted this company to set up an appointment. staff replied and I gave him my contact info and address and we got an appointment set up. I went and left work early- however my contact was a NO SHOW. Contacted multiple times and didn't even bother to reply. I definitely do not recommend.

Everything was great! They arrived when they said they would, and they got the work done quickly. The whole team seemed very knowledgeable about electrical codes -- I felt comfortable trusting them with the work in my house.

Jeff came out to our house to perform a free estimate. He took a look around for 15 minutes, then informed my husband that it was just the breaker and that he had fixed it right there and then. He said he'd send a bill, which we figured was fair enough since the problem was fixed, after all. He never indicated a price to either of us before or after the service and we never agreed to any price because none was ever given to us.
A few days later we were sent a bill for $175. Somehow, a free estimate (as listed right on his Angie's List page) that lasted 15 minutes turned into a $175 service charge. When I emailed him to ask him about the charge and how he got that number, he gave me a step by step (literally--he even told me how many times he walked back and forth between the house and garage) retelling of that 15 minutes. That still didn't explain why he is advertising free estimates as such if they aren't, in fact, free. I informed him that if he had to perform billable work to complete an estimate, then he shouldn't offer them for free. Had he told me upfront that he would need to charge us for testing, I would have asked the price and agreed or passed on the appointment. That is the fair way to do business.
In response, Jeff sent me this email [sic throughout quote]:
You know what? Forget it. On me!! I dont want you as a customer. I dont want your money Please dont ever call me again for service. Im happy to fix your problem for free , but i choose to never service you again. Its not worth the aggravation. i never in 30 years have been treated like this. Have a nice day.

It was incredibly unprofessional and downright rude. MY emails were firm, but always polite. I had offered to pay for a portion of the bill since I did think it was fair to pay for fixing the problem. Had he had an explanation for why the bill was so high (travel costs, parts, something like that), I would have paid the whole thing; however, Jeff had no explanation for these costs and instead resorted to throwing a temper tantrum.
I took it upon myself to post this email on Facebook yesterday and in less then 24 hours I've had others come to me and tell me that Jeff tried to con them or their friends out of money. So buyer beware--this is not a person you want to do business with.
UPDATE: Since posting this review, Jeff has sent me messages through email and Yelp apologizing for his behavior, but I chose not to respond because he seems very unpredictable. As a result, he is now attempting to say that I'm lying, etc. I still have the emails between the 2 of us, as well as a screenshot showing that he advertises on Angie's List for free estimates he is not willing to provide. Nothing I have posted here is untrue in any way. Based on his current behavior I can only assume that his attempts at an apology were only made to make me alter my review and now that he isn't getting his way, he's trying to discredit me. This is not someone you want working on your home. And by the way--the power is out in my garage again so his fix was a total waste of 15 minutes anyway.

I owned my home for several years and had no ceiling light in my living room. My home was over 100 years old, so it was originally gas lighting. Manny placed 6 recessed lights in my living room ceiling and included a dimmer switch! Then he installed baseboard electric heaters in every room including my living room. He did an excellent job and I was very happy.

Another project completed successfully by Wes Carver Electric. After upgrading my home from 100 to 200 amp service in 2019, this most recent project was small by comparison but no less important to us. Andrew came out to convert an old breaker dedicated to a long-since removed hot tub into an outdoor electrical outlet that would allow us to plug in our new outdoor landscape lighting. Andrew was on time, professional, friendly and thoughtful in explaining the project, costs and reviewing the work on completion. He was also great with our two older Labrador retrievers who are always curious about visitors. As always, we'll be calling Wes Carver Electric for our next project, large or small.

Disorganized, condescending, poor workmanship and overpriced.
First I had explained the job to be done to the person on the phone when I made an appt. On the appointment day I had to call the office to see if they were coming as scheduled because they were 25 minutes late. Second the electricians had no idea what they were there to do so they came unprepared for the job and had to run back to their shop for supplies & they charged me for travel time to and from my home to go get supplies they should have had with them.
When discussing the location of an exterior light I was concerned about where it was to be placed and was told it's okay Hun it will work. I then was on my out to pick up an additional light and it was suggested by the electrician that if I got the coffee he would get the Baileys and we could make our own drinks. Seriously.
Third, the bill received was unbelievably high for the work completed and I expressed to the company that it seemed too high but received no response, although they cashed my check.
Unfortunately, lastly it wasn't until after I paid the bill that when one light installed was checked they had left the wires hanging outside the housing on an exterior light and never put in a weather seal.
Don't waste your time or money calling these guys.

George Marko is an excellent electrician and I highly recommend him. He is professional, knowledgeable, and reasonable and fair.
I recently had an issue that I was convinced would require me to rip open walls to fix. George diagnosed the problem as a bad wire and found a work around that saved me hundreds of dollars and a lot of time.
George is someone you can trust in your home.

Got a level 2 charger installed into my detached garage. Thomas was very responsive and gave me a fair and accurate quote to do the work quickly. Very pleased with the work. Hard to find reliable, reasonable electricians these days. Highly recommend using him.
