Best Businesses in Pennsylvania

I called Street Brothers because I was selling a house and wanted to get a several electrical issues fixed.  Steve was very responsive and helpful.  He came to the house the next day and started the work right away.  He found a few things that I didn't know about but that a home inspector would have cited as problems and fixed those too.  His prices were very fair.

Five stars all around! We just bought a house and needed some electrical work done and Thomas has been so incredible. We will continue to use him for our electrical work in the future and we have recommended him to my parents for some upcoming work on their house. Thomas and Grounded Electrical are amazing and we will definitely be hiring them again!

Since I have owned my home, it has been difficult to find a professional contractor who can do a quality job for a reasonable price. For the last few months Mike has done numerous jobs around my home - Roofing, Drywall, Painting, Deck Install. His prices are fair, and he will get the job done. Mike is pleasant to deal with, and I would recommend him to anyone who has been holding off on upgrades or repairs to their home.

Jeremy rewired most of my 120+ year old house to replace knob and tube.  The work was done prior to closing the sale, so it could not have been easy balancing the needs of both a seller and a buyer simultaneously, but he was great!  He called at critical steps along the way to offer options and ask for approval, and was able to bill separately for a few additional things that I wanted done as well with an eye toward future improvements and renovations.  Highly recommended!!!

Corey is the nicest guy to work with!!! He came in under budget and really helped me out.

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.

Professional electricians. Hard workers. Good people. What more could you ask for?

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.

We had to run new electric service on a farm to multiple buildings and upgrade the very outdated wiring that came with it (house is from the 1700's).  The old service was above ground, we switched to below ground (not trivial on this property).  Multiple complexities involved in making this project a success.  Josh did a great job working with me to figure out the best solution and was very prepared for the job.  He ran the whole job by the inspector BEFORE starting any work to make sure everything would be done properly when the inspector showed up.  A few weeks later we had a very clean and professional installation.  Josh makes sure his customer is happy first, and charges very reasonable prices for the quality of his work.  Highly recommend to anyone looking to have electrical work done!

Farryn came over to install an last minute outlet. We had just gotten a new stove and converted to gas the day before when we realized we needed a new outlet for the kitchen. They came over the very next day and got us hooked up. They provided excellent service and great communication. Dan followed up with us and made sure everything worked out ok and that we were good to go with the new setup. We would recommend them for any project and we will be calling them for any of our future electrical work.

I called Pops electric because I needed to have some electrical work done i spoke to a person and they said they would get back to me, I never heard from them again  very unprofessional if they don't want to do the job thats fine but tell me and I'll find another company so for that I cannot recommend them

Excellent service,always aiming for the highest quality,Highly recommended to all the family and friends

Responsive initially but fails to follow through or give requested information when asked. Was not awarded the work.

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.

Way over Priced. $5,000 to $8,000 just to to run electric to an above ground pool. No thanks, I'll keep looking.
