Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

Let me first start off with I hate writing reviews!!!!!Was referred to Strickland Electric LLC by a friend after being referred to a company (I will write a review about those guyslater) that sent a BLIND electrician to my home (can't make this shit up)!

Mr. Strickland came to my home and accessed all the issues from the previous electrician, and other problems that needed to be addressed.  Very professional, courteous and punctual.  After receiving this information , I just knew I was going to be house poor in the poor house!  #NOPE fair, affordable pricing.  I hired Strickland Electric to complete the job, which was done impeccably.  I have since used Strickland twice after that and I have another appointment this week.  ANDDDDDD they cleaned up when the job was completed (unlike some companies..oh! that's right, he couldn't see the trash he left behind)

Strickland Electric are my new electricians.

Thanks to Mr. Strickland and his professional crew.

We hired Stahl Electric to do a full rewire on our house to remove all of the old knob and tube wiring and upgrade to a 200 amp service. The job included adding a number of ceiling fans and light fixtures throughout the house, more electrical outlets, and a new doorbell. It was completed May-June 2017.

I can't say enough about the phenomenal job that Ira's team did for us!  The estimated time for the job to be completed was 4-6 weeks and they finished in exactly 4. Every morning, the guys (Lou and Alex) showed up right on time. I'm at home with a new baby at the moment so I was around a lot while they were working. They were extremely polite, friendly, and answered all of my questions knowledgeably. They did a full day's work, and always spent the last 30-40 mins of each day cleaning up, vacuuming any bits left on the floor, and moving furniture back to where they found it. You could barely tell they had been there after they left!

Another thing I really appreciated was that they knew we were very concerned with keeping the job as close to the original estimate as possible. So they always pointed out when unexpected things came up, and gave us options of how the issue could be handled.

Finally, now that the job is complete, we have a few, VERY SMALL places where we need to spackle and touch up paint but nowhere near what I assumed we might be left with after a huge job like this. It's almost like magic!  They replaced all of the old wiring in our house and you can barely see any evidence that they were here at all. And now our house is safer, more comfortable to live in, and our homeowners insurance is going down by more than 50% per year!

We'll absolutely use Stahl Electric for all of our electrical needs in the future and would 100% recommend them for any job, big or small.

Alba Electric installed a new electrical panel in our home and also made sure that our pool was safe to swim in. They did such an amazing job that we had them come back to wire our newly installed bathroom exhaust fans. Ilir, the owner, is highly organized, prompt, always answers the phone, and his pricing is fair. He has a great team of electricians who work for him. I can't say enough about this company. We will be calling Alba Electric for all of our electrical service needs.

Chris answered and returned calls very promptly.  He came out to check out a problem with our electric box and we trusted his recommendation and replaced everything.  He kept us informed the whole way with timing and permits, etc.  He replaced our whole electric box and the feed line outside the house.  His work was very clean, timely and thorough.  I do design for a living and was happy to see how clean and organized his work was on the actual box.  He was very informative explaining some things we needed to know for the inspection and even called to remind us of when it would be.  I had pretty bad anxiety oer our electric box going bad, but, he was here the day before xmas even getting all of the work done and we now have a great peace of mind about our home  We will absolutely be calling him for more work.

From the call answered to the technicians that came out, they were all polite and professional. This starts from
Amy, to Leo and Ortaku the actual workers that performed the task. I was truly satisfied. I highly recommend them.

Wonderful experience! Arrived ahead of schedule to install recess lighting in our living room and they replaced two light fixtures. They were super nice and left no mess behind! Would highly recommend them for any of your electrical needs

Chris did a great job rewiring all the knob and tube stuff in the house. He went above and beyond--if he found an issue , such as the dodgy wiring with the bathroom light, he just fixed it. He also, without even me asking, tidied up the lighting for a bedroom closet--before there was cord that went from the closet, through the doorway along the floor, and then had to be plugged into a socket in the bedroom. It was such a pain I never used it. He tidied it all away and now there is a switch in the bedroom that turns on the light in the closet. I would certainly use him again for any electric work, big or small.

Contacted Positive Electric and Power recently when I realized my small electrical repair was more than I could handle.  John was quick to come out, access the issue, and offer a recommended repair.  The whole job was done in a fraction of the time it would have taken me and John left the area in perfect condition.  Would highly recommend!

My Generac generator failed to start after a power outage. I called several other electrician's and their prices were ridiculous, they want to gouge you. Worst offender was Murray Electric, total ripoff. Powell's came the next morning at 7:30 am in the freezing rain. Their generator guy Ed put up a large tent so he could work on it. This was not an easy repair. After diagnosing the problem he had fixed and running in two hours. No parts were needed so all I had to pay for was labor. He was honest, others would have gouged me with unneeded parts. This is a good company that is honest and treats the customer fairly.

Having never hired a contractor to do any work in my home, I can't say enough great things about Anton Electric!

Everyone in my family is in some sort of skilled trade so we rarely have to hire contractors.  My cousin is an electrician but he's been unavoidably detained with a 4 year old and a new born, so I had to call in the pros to install our media center and wire in a ceiling fan where no electric existed before.

Jeff, from Anton Electric, was not only on time each day he came, but he was professional and did everything neatly and proper.  He installed all of our components in the basement and ran an infrared device through the walls and placed it discretely next to the TV (which I still can't find).  Now everything is out of site in the basement and all we have in our living room is the TV and speakers - it's amazing!  Everything is controlled through this infrared and changing channels and such sends a signal to our devices in the basement.  I'd highly recommend this if yo want to hide your devices.

Jeff also installed a ceiling fan in our living room and honestly, he had it up in under 20 minutes.

We shopped around with some other contractors and Anton was not only the most competitive, but they appeared to have had the best reputation.  We'll be calling them back when we redo our kitchen or have any other electrical needs! Thanks Anton!

Old school south philly electrician. It's like having your dad do your electrical (as long as he's the fatherly type). He's punctual and friendly. He's competent. And he's affordable. I swear, if Lou had a website, Gen3 would be out of business. His estimates were half the price and he was incredibly polite and clean. He even managed to shift his work schedule around my infant's nap. By far my favorite electrician this far. And I've been through four or so thus far.

He works with his nephew and son. The y have a delightful bickering going on, worthy of a reality show. I really have no complaints and I plan to call him back for some other issues.

Had Enton over a number of times. Very knowledgeable. Service is good as well as the price. Highly recommended.

Minus rating
Outside gfi needed replacement
Before they even come out they take your credit card number, assess a 95.00 service fee,call back / text multiple times to confirm service then even before someone arrives,steps foot on property to look at the problem state charge of 340.00.
Never seen anything like this. We cancelled service and had another company do it the old fashioned way. Come out, assess fix problem and charge for their services 100.00
Run from this outfit-extortion

I find it difficult to reconcile the favorable reviews here with my distasteful experience with Theo Linde.  He won't answer his phone -- ever.  He insists his customers communicate with him only by email, even to schedule an appointment.  He takes forever (WEEKS!) to respond to emails.  He refuses to discuss his proposed work -- including specifications.  (Reputable contractors don't do this.)   Then, an hour before he was scheduled to begin work, he sent me an email increasing his price significantly, saying he was just getting around to reading his emails.  Really?!   He may be a decent electrician, but not worth the frustration of dealing with him.

Steve is a top notch professional! I will definitely hire him again. I had a handy man disaster with my dryer tubing and Steve fixed it perfectly. He also hung over 25 things including swag lights, curtain rods, shelves, medicine cabinet, and pictures. He did an excellent job. Very polite, helpful and knowledgeable. I am completely satisfied with his work. Good help is hard to find and I'm glad I found him!
