Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Gen3 is great, they are my go-to. We had them install our recessed lighting last year and had them come back for a HVAC tune up. John Yeomans is very experienced and did a thorough check of what our HVAC needs to stay working! Thanks John!

Honest, trust worthy, respectable, and fairly priced. Greg is very professional and goes above and beyond, even if it doesn't profit him. Definitely my go to professional for all my electrical and A/C jobs. Great customer service, and even better work ethic.

I've called Larry for electrical work for my home twice now: the first time was to install a new outlet/breaker because I was consistently getting overcurrents on a circuit that I needed to spread out. The second time was to run wiring through a wall up a floor to install a smart doorbell that literally no other contractor wanted to do.

Larry and his sons are prompt, friendly, explain everything that they are doing, and their work is fast and of high quality. They are the best - bar none. I won't work with any other electrician in the city.

They also gave me a badass t-shirt!

Jim and Sons is our go to electrician since we moved to the Abington area.  We had a bunch of 2 prong outlets in our house that needed to be converted to 3 prong.  I reached out to a few companies on Yelp and Jim was the first to respond with the most fair price.  Joe was right on time when he showed up and did the job quickly.  He is a professional and obviously knows his work because he answered all the questions I had.  I am now in the process of hiring them for more electrical work.  These guys will have my business for a long time; I highly recommend!

When the kitchen lights flickered on their own I knew it was either paranormal or an electrical problem.  Three electricians diagnosed moisture in the panel causing erosion and faults.   I knew I was in for a hefty contractor's bill but didn't realize how much of a problem this was or how much work they'd have to do.  

The recommendation was for a new panel as well as removing one of PECO's outside meters and putting the load onto the other.  

I chose JDV for a few reasons.  Their prices were a bit more reasonable on the panel and theirs included whole house surge protection system, and updated my main grounding system.  

In talking to Anthony, the sales person also the installer, I explained my frustration at frequent power outages. Anthony recommended an outlet at the side of the house so I could hook up a 30 amp generator directly to the panel box.  This was a recommendation no other company gave and because helped me with a problem I went with JDV.  

The team of three installed;
Premium 200 AMP Panel Package * Outside service cable & meter socket * 200 AMP Panel - full copper buss bar * Whole house surge protection system * Update main grounding system * Label all circuits, took the outside main PECO meter apart and replaced all the wires, cleaned it's corrosion, and put silicone all around the joints to prevent further moisture from getting into it and down into the house's panel.  

Now, the cost wasn't cheap.  And, bottom line, the work is clean and I found they worked well together as a team, very professional.

Our electricity got funky on a Saturday morning.  I called the guy who had allegedly fixed the same problem several months ago.  He never returned my calls.  So i checked Yelps, and Tony sounded great. And he is.  He promised to come the next day, a Sunday.  He showed up at 10, as promised.  It took him all.of ten minutes to find the problem.  Fixed in 10 more.  He walked me through the problem and said i was lucky because this could start a fire.  I promised a good Yelp.  I'll do him one better.  If you have an electrical problem, call Tony.  He actually does what he says he will. *****

Fast response and great service. My Yelp message was responded to within a day and my call was returned immediately. Good communication, on time, and great work. We're very pleased with the two pendant lights  we had installed. The price was significantly less than other companies. This is a nice young professional worthy of your business.

We will be hiring him again for another project soon.

Highly recommended.

Edmond was a pleasure to work with from the quick response to my inquiry, a fair quote for the work, and finally the scheduling and completion of the work. Looking forward to working again with Edmond and his Team.

They were super responsive and timely. They explained everything including sending me a solution to an additional project I was considering in the future. Everything was done well.

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

Excellent service from initial quote, to work completion. PEM is a trustworthy, efficient, and friendly local company to have work performed. From initial quote, the team has been extremely communicative and even offered to perform work earlier than scheduled based off electrician availability. The entire process was super easy. Thank You!

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.

The Yelp community came through again! I used the message a project Yelp function to EP Electric for an outdoor electrical outlet problem. EP Electric responded within the time they said they would, and then called when scheduled two days later for a consultation.

I gave another description of the problem, and Andi informed me of the initial cost to come out and advised me of the Yelp coupon which I had known about. Anything above that cost would be discussed before the work would be done.

I made an appointment to have EP Electric come out, and Andi and his assistant showed up as scheduled. His communication beforehand to come to my house also was very good.

Fortunately for me, my problem was easy for Andi to resolve and the breaker only needed replacing. The whole thing was done in less than 30 minutes right before a super-drenching downpour. Good thing since it was an outdoor plug problem!

I'd highly recommend EP Electric. Very good communication and quick service. The right way to do business.

These guys are awesome. Rod was very good with responding and getting time scheduled. Nate, the technician came out and was flawless. Extreme attention to detail made sure everything was just right. Didn't rush made sure I was comfortable with everything and adjusted heights until I was happy with it. Super tidy made sure the place was spotless before he left. Prices are extremely fair. Rest assured I have plenty more lighting projects for my new home and I know I am giving these guys a call again without a doubt. Highly recommended!

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!

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.
