Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Great customer service setting up the appointment.  Technician (Brian) arrived on time, quickly diagnosed the problem - wiring to AC unit from thermostat - and fixed i.  Very pleasant interaction with him and would recommend this company.

NOTE: I didn't have Greg do any work.

The reason I'm writing this is that I contacted him and he got right back to me saying that he doesn't come as far as Mt. Airy but that if I was handy he could probably help me do some troubleshooting on the phone. I didn't take him up on that, but I found it to be really amazing that he offered to do that.
He must be a super nice guy!

I'm currently undergoing home renovations in South Philly and needed an electrician to rewire the entire house. I didn't know any reputable contractors (seems like a common problem here), so I took to Yelp to help in my search. After an hour of researching/reading reviews, I ended up calling several electricians to seek estimates.

I didn't end up going with Lauterborn Electric (due to a timing issue on my end), but I felt obliged to write them a positive review because Larry was nothing short of professional during my dealings with him.

He showed up on time for his appointment, and I showed him through my 3-story row home (part of which was demoed). He was very cordial, and you could tell he knew what he was talking about.

His quote came a couple days later. It was well organized/itemized. His price seemed very reasonable and in line with most of the other valid quotes I received. He even spent the time to discuss things with me over the phone at length, without making it seem like I was wasting his time or rushing him.

My schedule unexpectedly got pushed up, so as I stated previously, I was forced to go with another competitor. However, I would have absolutely no qualms having Larry do work on my house. I wish there were more easily accessible professionals like him in this city.

I sold my house to an FHA buyer and as expected, the inspector flagged a few things with the electrical system in our house.  Of course, the buyer asked for the entire house to be rewired, but we were not willing to spend the $4000+ to do that, so we countered and told them we would address only the items the inspector actually flagged, which were: correct reverse polarity in 2 outlets; install dedicated line from panel to 2 kitchen counter outlets and properly ground the GFIs; install a dedicated line to the bathroom and install GFI; install a dedicated line to the laundry room and install a GFI; and install a ground wire from the panel to the water meter.  Jim came out and gave us a very reasonable estimate to do all this work and once we made the decision to go with him, we scheduled the work to be completed a couple weeks later.  Two gentlemen came out to do the work and they were very nice, polite, and respectful.  I am always worried about being disrespected or taken advantage of as a woman in these situations, but they were both great.  When their work was finished, I asked them if I could use their outlet tester to take pictures of the grounded outlets and the corrected outlets to send to my realtor - she would be sending these on to the buyer's agent to show that the work had been completed.  During this last round, we discovered that one of the kitchen outlets did not have the same test result as the other, which led me to believe it might not be properly grounded.  I won't pretend to understand electrical work or terminology, but he tried to explain it to me - why it was fine the way it was, and would pass inspection - but I told him it would just make me feel better if the tester lit up the same way on this second kitchen outlet as it did on the first.  And he happily complied.  Without an attitude or irritation or anything.  So thank you so much for that!  It only took him an extra 10-15 minutes and at that point I was 100% satisfied with the work!  All said and done, this came out to less than $900, and I'm very pleased with the experience.  Jim was great to work with and so were his two men!

Excellent business and great customer service. Professional in communication and service was swift and efficient. COVID conscious and respectful to customers home environment.

These guys are great! The home we bought had antiquated laundry room power outlets. Tony was able to come and upgrade them same day, and at a fair price. He was efficient, very detail oriented, and a nice guy. We'll be using their services again whenever we need electrical work!

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

I needed an electrician for my tenant who suddenly lost power on a hot summer day. I called GE electric after initially going with another company that had basically tried to rip me off.

Edmund, the man that responded to my call was honest, straight forward and prompt. He got to my tenant's house within half hour and fixed the problem for me under 10 minutes. He charged me a very reasonable rate, and gave me a quote to replace the box and a power cable outside of the house. He did not pressure me in any way to get all the work done, but did the minimum necessary to get the electric running again.

If you are looking for an honest electrician that will get the job done, I would highly recommend GE!

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

I'd call them....amazing. The tech was very professional, knew exactly what to do, and completed the job. The cost was quite reasonable, as well. Our tech, Hector, arrived exactly when we were told. The team at Thomas Edison were really nice and easy to talk with. So, yeah, amazing.

Had two electrician come out to find problem power out for garage door. They made matters worst.Called Princeton Electrical Makeover Ken Domenico & his partner found the problem right away. Explain the problem to me 89yr. old that i understood. They resolved the problem. If you need a professional job done right DO NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE!!!!  They know what they are doing to find the problem.
THANK YOU!

Tom and his trainee installed a ceiling fan in my 4th bedroom.  It is beautiful and they know what they are doing. The office staff are so friendly.  Quick easy service.  They never disappoint.

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.

Rock solid team.  Rod came out for the estimate and we talked through several ideas.  They had no issue with the revising the estimate based on changes we made.  Scheduling was quick.

Stephen and Brandon came for two days worth of work and were excellent to deal with.  They worked well as a team and moved quickly.  They were both very knowledgeable, took excellent care of the house while they worked, and cleaned up very well both days.  They had great attitudes and are full of positivity.

This team will be my new go-to!

Joel is very professional, fairly priced and gets the job done very efficiently. He is my go to electrician that is very knowledgeable and honest. I highly recommend his services from smallest to largest possible job. He will get it done for you!

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.
