Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

I would rate my experience with Generation 3 Electric at a 3 out of 5. The guys were extremely friendly and helpful. The price was a bit high, but the work was done right and up to code, so it seems worth it to me.

My only negative comment is that I wish they had put out some more drop cloths over my floor and my bed. There are a bunch of marks and indentations in my wood floor from the BX cable hitting it and possibly being stepped on. And my bed was covered with black dust.

The abundant 5 star reviews truly reflect on Greg's expertise and the manner in which he communicates.  Explanations are detailed and clear and Greg's problem solving skills regarding some thorny electrical situations are highly commendable.  He efficiently solved numerous problems which were safety issues.  Greg sent pictures to  clarify and even replaced 2 fixtures for me (I live out of state) and did it by sending me pics from which to choose, from the store!  I am extremely pleased and feel confident knowing that I have a terrific electrician to call upon for any future issues in my rental property.   Thanks, Greg!

We used the guys at Lauterborn Electric for rewiring during a kitchen remodel.  The prior homeowners had some interesting ideas on how electric works, but Larry and his team addressed everything and did a great job rewiring and getting everything up to code for the remodel.  They went over the top to make sure we were satisfied and were extremely thorough.  Most importantly, I feel confident that the work was done correctly, is safe and won't cause me problems down the line.  

I would highly recommend Larry and the team for whatever job, big or small.

TL;DR Professional electricians, clean work, timely and the right price

Background:

I collected at least 4 estimates from electricians for the work I needed. One electrician was eliminated because he suggested work that didn't need to get done and another electrician was eliminated because his quote was too low.

I was left with 2 quotes that were comparable in price, one of which was Jim's. It was a hard decision to make given I don't know much about electrical work. Yet, two things stood out to me: 1) Jim included a few optional services like getting a totally new panel. He didn't mandate it but suggested it. He also gave me some background information on how to decide whether to do it now or later. 2) When his electricians came out for a quote I had them look at some of the other things the other electricians pointed out. Again, they gave me all of the information I needed to make an informed decision.

I appreciate experts who help their customers understand what they are paying for. That builds trust and shows integrity in an industry that sometimes feels it's lacking that all around.

I was having issues in my house where appliances were turning off during operation and lights were flickering.

A google search indicated that this could be a fire hazard.  I called my usual electrician and waited.  After several hours of waiting and never hearing anything back I called four other electricians and didn't hear a single thing from any of them either.

I reached out to my plumber and asked for a recommendation -- he recommended JDV and they called me within a few minutes of me reaching out.  The woman on the phone was extremely polite and helpful and let me know someone could come out that same day.  She even called me prior to their arrival so I would have an idea when they would be here.

Joe was on-site and diagnosed the issue.  He was able to diagnose my problem quickly and was able to do the repairs the same week (permits were required so he had to come back).

Overall I am extremely happy with JDV -- I already recommended them to family members and will be using them for more work within the next few months.  You can't go wrong with JDV!

I really appreciated the care they put into installing two lights and an outlet in my home. Tony was extremely respectful of my home, cleaned everything up after he was done, and didnt charge me extra when I'm sure most people would have, twice!  he needed to call someone else to insist with the install which I appreciated because it means he wasn't just going to try to get it done on his own for the sake of time, but wanted it done well/right. Also thank you for being mindful of the white rugs! Most workers who come out to do work leave some sort of mess behind I have to clean up. This was not the case with Itech. Tony even had little booties for his shoes so he wouldn't bring in dirt to my home. 10/10 would 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!

I work as a Building Supervisor for a non-profit in Camden, so GE Eletrical's prices and rates are great Divija is professional, reliable, does great work,  and is great at communicating and being flexible. I will definitely be reaching out to him again for contract work.

I had surgery and bending is almost impossible. I needed to move 3 outlets to waist height to put them in reach. I  looked at several prices and Dunn Master was very fair. He is starting a new business, although he has lots of experience. He and his assistant were able to install 3 outlets immediately before the holidays. I thought one outlet was difficult to plug in, so I called them back, and they came the next day. There was no problem; I just was afraid to push.
They were not only  excellent electricians, they were very respectful. They showed me a license and insurance, wore covers on their shoes, and cleaned up plaster work, like they were never here. They fixed a stuck garbage disposal and put in a wedge to reposition my Ring doorbell; gratis. They gave me a three year warranty on the work.
I would hire them again in a minute.

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

Terrible terrible service. I waited 3 months for a quote. My project for totally derailed. I regret counting on Alex. Find a different electrician.  Can't get any worse.

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.

I was happy with the work done by EP Electric; they were very responsive in December when I needed 2 outdoor outlets replaced. They came within a day of the request sent to several electricians.  While at my house I asked for an estimate to have some switches changed to dimmers. The next time I needed an electrician was to change out some light fixtures. Again, EP Electric was pretty responsive and available in my timeframe. Since I had used them before, I was comfortable having them come out. When that job was complete, I again discussed the dimmers I wanted and we discussed when I wanted to get the work done.  We are working on a schedule for this week and I think it will really add to the ambiance of my house. Looking forward to it.

We got quite a few estimates for rewiring our home and installing lights and a ceiling fan. Married 2 Electric was the easiest to understand and most well-explained estimate we got. Rod was fantastic and really put us at ease as we were concerned with the complexity of our project. They knocked it out of the park. Always on time, always professional, and always a pleasure to be around. We had to be in our home while work was being done and they were extremely thoughtful the entire time. I can't recommend the Married 2 Electric team enough. Fantastic work.

Joel is great to work with. We have now had him out for 2 different visits for various electrical fixes and projects. He fixed a bunch of issues that came up on our home inspection for our new home. He added an electric outlet so we could hook up an electric dryer. Today we had him out to install some new lighting in our living room that has 18 foot ceilings. He does great work at a fair price. He is also great with communication and is quick to answer any questions. We will for sure be calling him again!

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!
