Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Gen 3 is a really well-run organization. Still has the feel of a neighborhood shop, but totally professional and responsive. Bill and Debbie, the owners, have put together what I consider the best of service in their field. I had an issue with an electric burning smell in one of my bathroom overhead lights. Stan, the technician, was totally professional, even putting on protective booties to enter our home. He pointed out some issues I wasn't aware of, worked diligently, quickly, and efficiently and took care of the problem in a timely manner. I highly recommend them to anybody who needs electrical work done in their home.

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 highly recommend Lauterborn Electric. Larry and his son Larry replaced 100amp service to my home, switched out recessed lighting to LED and a few other things.  They were fantastic!  Efficient, informative, reasonable and all with a sense of humor.  I am one happy customer. Call them now!!

Excellent Communication! Arrived on time. Job well done. We will use this company again. Thank you.

JDV Electric will be our go-to company for my future electrical needs and referrals to our family, friends and neighbors. Debbie at the office contacted me a few minutes after I submitted an online inquiry and she did a great job throughout the process of keeping me updated. Joe was extremely professional and knowledgeable in helping me put in new lighting throughout my home. He offered multiple suggestions with upfront pricing and allowed me to make an informed decision on multiple projects in the house. Joe did an excellent job keeping me informed of his progress and was respectful of my time by arriving early both days. I can't say enough great things about JDV Electric.

These guys are rockstars in my
Book.  They showed up on time, were all service, no hassle, fair priced, clean and super friendly.   Would highly recommend and will definitely use again!

Thanks guys, You Rock!!!

I've only had my inspection so far but I really recommend this company! A Black owned business with wonderful workers. Maliek was professional, knowledgeable, and super nice. He was able to explain everything to me as a first time homebuyer in a way that made sense. He also went over my home inspection with me and found issues that the inspector didn't. Also I was given two price points to choose from for the work I wanted. Great all around!

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!

CJ did an awesome job running new wiring from my panel to a new outlet for a sauna I am installing. He was attentive to detail, clean work, no damage to walls - looks like he was never here. Highly recommend for quality work at good price. Responded to me an completed the job in less than 24hrs from my first outreach.

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.

Wonderful experience from start to finish! I so appreciate the great communication and follow through. So many contractors have literally no showed with no explanation so having a reliable company is SO refreshing! Eduardo was so amazing! Worked efficiently and respectfully. Even helped me take down some lighting fixtures I couldn't reach to clean and put them back up. Pointed out a hazardous outlet in the bath that needed GFI and didn't charge a ridiculous price to do it. I love these guys!! Thank you!!

Thomas Edison Electric came out on a Saturday and replaced two light switches in my house. The gentleman was right on time, very pleasant and professional.  These light switches are in my kitchen and very important.  I have nothing but good things to say.

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.

I relied on the yelp reviews of this company as I needed an electrician and I haven't had the best of luck with past contractors. Married 2 Electric was awesome! Rod answered his phone right away when I called and the electrician Todd was on time, super helpful, knowledgeable and friendly! Issues fixed quickly and he was considerate and clean with his work. I will use them in the future and would recommend to anyone. Thank you!!

I had a great experience with Joel.  We had two separate jobs a week apart.  Both were done very well and he even saved me money with recommendations.  Joel is very pleasant to work with and I would definitely hire 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.
