Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Gen3 is a great little group operating out of Philadelphia.  We needed two ceiling fans installed and they came out quickly, had to of course cut out the areas to wire - and they cleaned and patched, we had to finish with spakle and paint, but they cleaned up, and again were reasonable with their charges.

I would definitely have them do my electrical work in the future.

Let me first say that I have never used Greg Avakian for my electrical work so this review is based entirely on the communication I had with him when I was looking for an electrician for a problem at a rental property. Greg couldn't do the work at the time however, he was the only electrician that even got back to me. Then, he went well beyond what I would have expected in trying to help me out with information on what might be the problem. It seems to me that it is rare to run into someone that will go to the lengths Greg went to and for no personal gain. Great guy who truly seems to enjoy what he is doing. I will call him the next time I need an electrician!

Larry Sr. and his sons Larry Jr. and Ryan are helpful trustworthy electricians. I like to learn and they are happy to explain their work. They came to problem solve an electric circuit tripping the breaker and were very systematic going about their job. Great at thinking through all the possible causes and narrowing them down. They came twice, each time for about an hour to work on the issue but I was only charged one $150 fee. I'm extremely happy with their service and will call on them for future work.

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!

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 built-in oven died and I was expecting to either replace it or pay hundreds of dollars to repair it.  They suggested something as simple as making sure to check the outlet.  Sure enough, the plug had somehow pulled away from the outlet, and I fixed the issue on my own.  They could have easily charged me for a house call to diagnose the problem, but they took the helpful route to save me time, trouble, and money.  Their number is now in my cell phone and they will be the ones I call for all my future electrical issues.  I could not be happier with their service.

Great service. Friendly service. They performed a thorough inspection prior to beginning the service. They also give you a quote at 3 price points. They do NOT pressure you to pick the most expensive option. After service was completed, everything that was done was overviewed including what was the issue. It is worth noting during the initial phone call they tried to walk us through troubleshooting at no additional cost. An Excellent Black Owned Business. We have found our electricians for the foreseeable future.

GE services services has done a number of jobs for me. They have always done a good job, come in on budget, have been flexible and been easy to work with. JQ

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

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.

Very good service! Alex tried to help me diagnose my issue over the phone before even coming out to the property (to try to save me money). When it was apparent that the issue was above my pay grade, a technician came out and quickly fixed the problem, for a reasonable price. Would recommend

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.

I had these guys out to my house for several jobs. They are always nice, competent and efficient. This last visit the man put in 3 hard wired smoke detectors, identified which breaker they were on, put in a light switch and provided and estimate in under an hour. He also went through and put dates on all the detectors so I'd know when to change them again. Just fabulous people and have already recommended them to others.

Joel and his team are highly knowledgeable, communicative, respectful, and price their work competitively. They even offered ways to reduce the cost of our job. We had them install a 240v outlet in the garage for an EV charger, a 240v forced air heater in the basement, along with a couple other smaller jobs. They identified and fixed an unrelated safety issue with our electrical panel while they were at it. Working with them has been one of the most pleasant contractor experiences in years. I feel that they gave our home the same attention to detail they would give to their own. I highly recommend Aratech services to anyone looking to hire an electrician.

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.
