Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

Very responsive (a rarity among contractors from my experience), friendly, professional, and fair rates. They did a great (and fast)  job replacing a toilet for me and based on this experience I would certainly recommend them to others.

Hopkins is the best!
Our Church just used Hopkins Plumbing for the project. They were always there when they said they would. They treated the building as if it was their church. Beautiful work in a workman like manner. Great job, thanks Brian!

This guy us the best

You will not be dissapponted

I owned my home for several years and had no ceiling light in my living room. My home was over 100 years old, so it was originally gas lighting. Manny placed 6 recessed lights in my living room ceiling and included a dimmer switch! Then he installed baseboard electric heaters in every room including my living room. He did an excellent job and I was very happy.

I worked with Matt on a unique plumbing issue and he was knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. You can trust in A&P!

Greg was responsive, courteous, and most importantly, gave a fair price.

Before the visit, Greg spent time reviewing some photos I took of the areas of concern I had, and the work that I thought I needed.

I was debating whether to upgrade my 100amp to 200amp service, and Greg helped me understand that the upgrade was unnecessary at this time, given the current requirements in my 1350 sf home. When does a contractor talk you out of work? I appreciated Greg's honesty here.

In my house, the box covering the wires coming in underground and the greenfield conduit running from the box to the meter have some rust on them, and I was concerned about their condition. Greg did a full inspection on these components and concluded that they also didn't need to be replaced as well, because there wasn't evidence of recent water damage and the wire inside was in good condition. Again, more money saved where another contractor might have just repaired for the sake of the job.

Finally, I did need a proper grounding system installed on my 100amp service and Greg efficiently installed a grounding rod and ran the wire to ground my water pipes, gas service, and cable connections.

And Greg gave me fair pricing for the time he took to do the job (~2 hrs). Other contractors were pricing me at 2-3x the rate that Greg gave me.

Greg has his customers' best interests in mind, and I will definitely call him back whenever I need electrical work.

I just moved into Society Hill. These guys are the best electricians. They are amazing electricians; competent, reliable, polite, reasonably priced.  Wouldn't  use any other!

I contacted Jim & Sons Electric to get an estimate for a relatively minor job, but one that I knew would turn into a major job if I did it myself. They advised me that they had a technician in the area, and could be out that same afternoon.
Their tech showed up as promised, spent a few minutes evaluating the job and suggested that I order the light fixture of my choice, and let them know when I received it.
I contacted Jim & Sons the day I received the fixture, and again, they had someone available to do the installation that same afternoon.
It's not easy finding a company that is responsive and courteous, and who also does a good job and has reasonable prices. I'll definitely use Jim & Sons Electric for any future jobs. Great service!

Cannot say enough great things about Joe & JDV Electric!

I bought a 1300 square foot home that was basically a complete remodel. I needed all the old knob and tube wiring removed and the whole house rewired. Joe walked me through the entire process and did all of the rough wiring in less than a week. That was with added obstacles such as 2 other contractors in the way. Joe then allowed me the time I needed to get the other contractors up to speed (putting up drywall and Spackle). He came back in after that was done to finish the job as soon as I asked him to. He put in the best recessed lights, dimmers, ceiling fans for me as well as some custom lights that I had ordered from Wayfair.

I did not have to deal with the inspections group of Philadelphia at all. Joe organized everything and passed with flying colors. Joe's attention to detail and professionalism surpass anyone I have ever worked with. He continued to support me after the job was completed with answering questions and dropping of small tid bits that I had forgotten. This was my first renovation and I simply could not have done it without Joe! As a young woman, I have been taken advantage of by some contractors on this renovation, this did NOT happen with JDV Electric. Ladies, I cannot tell you how appreciative I was to have an honest worker in my home. Joe will put your mind at rest and do right by you.

Thank you again for everything, Joe!

Quickly were able to help with a service upgrade at a very reasonable rate and even went above an beyond to help remove some exterior lights while they were up on a ladder. Would use them again!

Thanks so much for helping us out today! you fixed our heater that no one else could fix. it has been years to fix our problem

I had a technician, Jeff, come in to diagnose an issue I have been having with my furnace. Jeff was awesome. Very honest and hospitable. He didn't try to sell me anything, rather gave me his genuine opinion and went above and beyond to diagnose the problem. Him and his partner David came in and did some extra work that was outside the free diagnosis. Although there wasn't a favorable solution, Jeff gave me a lot to work off of in terms of figuring out a strategy to move forward. He provided his expert opinion on what he felt needed to be done and gave me options to help fix my problem and reduce costs. I really appreciated his work, thought, thoroughness, knowledge, and overall pleasure to speak with. Unfortunately, I did not get any service done; however, from his work ethic and the stories he shared, I have no doubt he will give any job his honest 120%. He won't cut corners and will continue to work at the problem until it gets fixed. He earns my strong recommendations for HVAC related work and questions.

My Wife has been on my back for 2 years about this chest freezer we purchased but needed a dedicated electrical outlet line for before hooking it up. The freezer had been sitting due to the fact I was dreading looking for an Electrician to do the wiring. So many contractors waste your time by not responding, not showing up, inaccurate pricing, incomplete work, and of course shoddy workmanship. The research process in finding a contractor is very tedious because you want to avoid any of the above from becoming your reality. I am ecstatic, thankful, and joyous that my vetting process matched me with FMJ Electrical. Here's why:

Easy & Thorough Communication - I was able to submit my inquiry via yelp. We then spoke by phone to make sure all details and information was clear.

Fast Scheduling - Was able to fit me in the schedule upon talking to him.

Prompt - Contacted me the night before to remind me of the appointment. That showed me they valued not only my time, but also their time as well. Arrived on time the day of appointment and was ready to work.

Excellent Work - Flawlessly performed my new outlet installation. Ran it directly to the box inside the wall. Another quote I received from another provider would run it through tubing outside the wall and have the outlet external on top of the wall. FMJ did everything behind the wall and recessed the actual outlet. Also, the placement of the outlet was better than what I had imagined. I thought it would be higher up the wall for him to save time. He actually lowered more towards the ground which made less stress on the plug. Beautiful!

Price - I was quoted an excellent price for the work I needed done. Work was completed, I paid the bill, FMJ gets paid, my Wife stops nagging me, everyone wins!!!!

Bottom line......give FMJ Electrical a call or drop a line to them on Yelp if you want your electrical needs done right, at a great price, and on time!

Hot water stopped working so I had a feeling it was either the thermostats or the heating elements. Tech came and replaced both thermostats when only one was faulty and said the elements were fine. $500 dollars later, the same issue arises. I look into myself and find an electric wire that was never reattached and  also find out the top heating element is shorting which was the culprit the entire time. $500 dollars wasted for $30 dollars of parts and no solution.

Dave G. - thanks for looking into this. My name is Andrew Perry and my Zip is 19342.

The leak detection side of their offerings was fine.

However, I made the mistake of hiring them for their plumbing. Their plumber found the most roundabout, expensive way to resolve the issue and turned a $400-$500 fix into a $2500 fix.

Even once it was fixed, it started leaking again a few weeks later. This was supposed to be covered by my warranty, but they wanted more money.I ended up paying another $250 so they would do the fixe the way it should've been done in the first place.

If you use them to find your leak, do not under any circumstances hire them to fix anything.
