Best Electricians in Philadelphia, PA

I recently purchased a washer and dryer that were set to be delivered to my new home on Saturday. On Wednesday I realized that I did not have an outlet to put the washer on. I called Strickland Electric and told him what my situation was. He came out that same day to give me an estimate. The price was $25 cheaper than another estimate I received and he agreed to do the work before the washer and dryer were set to arrive. He arrived within the time frame he set and started right to work. He cleaned up his work area when done. Last he showed me how to turn the socket on and off and explained instances where it would turn off on its own. He was very polite and professional. Strickland Electric is going to be my go-to electrician from now on.

The only challenge with Stahl Electric is that they are so good, professional and talented that you have to join the waitlist to use them. However, to be open and honest, they will keep small jobs (you hope) on their cancelation list and call you to schedule their visit. Best electricians in the area!

Working with Ilir from Alba electric was an absolute pleasure. Ilir and his team are extremely professional and competent. They replaced our entire power panel, add a 220 for our dryer and another few more jboxs and outlets. Our house is very old,  and mid remodel process we realized some outlets and jboxs were not working, Ilir and his team came right back and made sure to repair all items promptly. Prices and scheduling were well communicated throughout the project. We definitely recommend Alba electric to anyone looking to upgrade their electrical system or any electrical repairs.

Chris does great work! We just had 2 ceiling fans replaced, new recessed lighting installed, and a giant TV mounted. I had gotten quotes from a few electricians and others said they could mount the TV but would have to run an extension cord to it. Chris was able to install a new outlet behind it so it looks seamless. All the work was done perfectly. So glad to have found such a friendly and reliable electrician!

Joe showed up in a mask and upgraded our circuit breaker professionally and quickly. I tried reaching several electricians before getting ahold of Thomas Edison Electric, and they were non-responsive. Once I found these guys, they responded right away and fixed our issue the following morning. I will definitely call them again next time I need an electrician.

Brian and Michael arrived as scheduled and were very professional and polite. They worked quickly and efficiently. I now have a dedicated outlet for my new over the range microwave.  If needed I would gladly use them again!

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.

John is a master electrician extraordinaire.  His personality is very colorful to say the least.  I bought my house two years ago, it needed a full remodeling.  Many contractors have come and gone since then and John is the only one I kept as a contact.  He shows up in a professional fully equipped van, gives you a fair estimate, handles all your issues, stands behind his work and does not disappear like others once he is paid.

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!

No call, no show when an appointment was scheduled. It took almost 3 days and 2 voicemails before my follow up to inquire about the missed appointment was even acknowledged. I can't comment on the actual quality of work because I went with another electrician. But since the responsiveness was so poor, I do not recommend

Installed a wired doorbell front & back. They were able to install it in such a way that there was minimal disruption to wall surfaces. It works flawlessly, and now enables me to install any of the video doorbell sets that are on the market (some of which require a wired doorbell). I would not hesitate to hire again for any electrical needs.

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

Left three messages and I was never contacted. The answering service  won't take a phone number, only an email. Second person I've tried to get two ceiling fans installed. Very frustrating. I guess it's lucrative to be an electrician since it seems no one needs my business.

Fixed a door more easily than we both thought and just said give me $30 and we are good; the estimate was $350...
