Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Great experience from beginning to end.

Chad showed up when he said he would to get us a quote, unlike way too many other contractors. He explained the whole process so we would know exactly what to expect, but didn't talk our ears off with technical details that are way over my head.

The itemized quote arrived within 24 hours.

We got a confirmation call the day before work began.

They started a day late so they could send one of their lead guys (a huge plus to me, not a complaint), yet still finished on time--even though they were replacing the main service cable outside and it kept raining. I don't know how they got it done in the original timeline, but they did. Maybe they sent additional guys? I was never in the house while they were working, so I'm not sure. That says it all to me--with absolutely no effort or stress on my part, the job got done.

They cleaned up after themselves every day, which wasn't even necessary as the house is just a workzone right now.

I was very impressed at how well they minimized cutting up my plaster, and they did a good job patching where they did have to cut.

It was reasonably priced--I feel that we got a very good value for the quality of work. We could've gotten the job done more cheaply, but it didn't seem like saving a few hundred on a $5k job was worth the potential headaches of someone less professional. We trusted Generation 3 from the start, and that peace of mind in the middle of a rehab is worth its weight in gold.

We needed an electrician and I called Greg because of his glowing reviews here on Yelp. Unfortunately, our needs were pressing, and he was too busy this week to come help us, but he spent about 20 minutes on the phone giving me some education and advice about our electrical problem. I could tell right away that he is a honest and caring professional. I wish we could have hired him for our job! From our conversation alone I would highly recommend Greg.

Larry is a great guy! He was so helpful and went out to my home the same day and fixed the issue. He was honest and straight forward and did not over charge or try to get over on us. We will definitely use him again for any of our needs that require an electrician! I highly recommend him!!

We had the power to our stove/microwave/garbage disposal go out and spent some money for someone else to do (what we now know was) a quick fix. When it went down again we brought some people out to diagnose. Turns out we needed to wire that fuse to our main box which someone neglected to do prior to use owning the house. The quotes that came in were insanely high but weren't sure. Jim and Sons came out, diagnosed the exact same problem and quoted a much more reasonable price. The thought then creeps in your head, Well what if their work ends up being shoddy due to the price?. Nothing could be further from the truth. Our crew showed up on time, were courteous and went to work right away. Job took exactly the amount of time they estimated and they did an excellent job. I will be calling them for all my electrician needs in the future! Thanks so much.

Had a circuit go out. Tried to diagnose the problem on my own, with no luck. Called JDV - they were booked and gave me an appointent for the following week, then caled the next day to offer an earlier appointment. Shwed up when theu said they woud listened carefully to me, found the issue and fixed it quickly. I'm a DIYer, but next time I have an electrical problem I cant handle, I'll call JDV. Very satisfied.

My elderly auntie called me in a panic. She said sparks were coming from an outlet and she feared an electrical fire would start. She tried to remain calm but she said she unplugged her life sustaining oxygen machine and her air conditioner on this extremely hot morning to prevent an electrical fire and added she feared she would not be able to afford the repair. I called just about every electrician on Yelp and Thumbtack. Quite a few didn't return my calls, others apologized but were unable to address an emergency visit but ITech promised to have someone at the house in an hour and advised her to turn the power off all together. I offered to pay for the repair but she insisted on no handouts. (Her words not mine) The technician arrived within the promised timeframe and made the necessary repairs immediately at a reasonable cost. To hear my aunt cry and say this was nothing but God made me cry. Thank you

The company is actually called Electric Geeks, I believe. When I had a crazy electrical emergency, Maleik and his brother were the quickest to respond and the only ones I could find willing to come out within just a few hours. They wanted a substantial deposit via CashApp before they would agree to come out, and would not accept credit cards. I was quite skeptical but went through with it since we were desperate to get power back. They proved to be legit and worked hard to get us back on. They knew what they were doing and did a great job.

My only issues were 1) not taking credit cards, and 2) I had to run to Home Depot because they got the wrong part (and blamed the store worker). They did dock it from my bill. Otherwise, if you are ok with paying cash and want reliable and quick service, I highly recommend.

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!!!

I needed a home EV charging set up and FAST.  Charles was super responsive when I was looking to schedule an estimate (he came out the next morning), gave an excellent estimate, and was more than flexible with scheduling the work.
Initial contact Thursday afternoon, estimate Friday morning, and work completed Tuesday (Charles and Julian were willing to do the work on Friday morning, but I was shopping other estimates before making my decision).
The work was done exactly to the specifications, no mess left after work was completed, and he added in a clever receptable protector because he thought it would be good - at no additional cost.
Charles and Julian worked from 2:15-8:30 pm (!) and didn't leave until they were sure that my husband and I were satisfied and my car was charging.
I would highly recommend DunnMaster Electric for any electrical needs.
Charles is a motivated young man working hard to build his customer base, and he's gained a new one today!
Both Charles and Julian are personable, professional, and tuned in to their customer needs.
Highly recommend!!

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.

I can't say enough good things about Thomas Edison Electric. They are a very timely, professional and great company. I called later in the evening frantic when I found out that I would be responsible for having an electrical pole fixed on my dollar. Tom was very kind and understanding, he was upfront about the cost of an emergency call and coming out the next day, which isn't something you usually hear from companies when there's an emergency. The techs came out on time the next day while also calling in advance which was a nice courtesy. They performed the tasks necessary to fix the pole and also helped my father in law with the generator. My father in law spoke very highly of them and was so impressed by their honesty and commitment. It's rare to find quality companies that are professional like Edison.

Andi and his partner Nick did a fantastic job with my house! I wanted recessed lighting done and he was very honest with getting me a quote about what he can/can't do.

They are perfectionists and want to stay to complete the job 100%.

Very professional coming on time/ earlier. Prices are fair and you definitely pay for quality. These guys do a smooth, clean job and also clean up after themselves when they're done.

I'm very pleased with the service I got and will definitely use them again one day when I redo my bathroom lights!

Rod, the owner I believe, was responsive to my initial request for a quote, and came out to the house to provide the quote - when it was convenient for US.  He was professional, polite, and willingly answered our many questions.  He provided a fair reasonably priced quote (more than reasonable), and did the work about a month ago - installing electric baseboard heaters in the finished basement, where the parents moved in.  They did an impeccable job, left the place as clean or cleaner, and it looks and feels great.  I waited to write the review to make sure everything was working properly, and it certainly is.  I will use Married 2 Electric for future projects I have planned.

UPDATE 8/24: We recently moved into our new home and we reached out to Joel with questions regarding LED, outdoor lighting not working, breaker boxes that we didn't know what purpose they served, some lighting that was flickering and switch plates on the wall that were hot to the touch.  Joel was quick and knowledgeable to figure out exactly what needed to be done to fix the issues.  He was able to answer every question we had and even took care of some of our issues right on the spot.  He then provided fair, itemized estimates for the other jobs that we wanted him to take care of. Great service!!

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.
