I had surgery and bending is almost impossible. I needed to move 3 outlets to waist height to put them in reach. I looked at several prices and Dunn Master was very fair. He is starting a new business, although he has lots of experience. He and his assistant were able to install 3 outlets immediately before the holidays. I thought one outlet was difficult to plug in, so I called them back, and they came the next day. There was no problem; I just was afraid to push.
They were not only excellent electricians, they were very respectful. They showed me a license and insurance, wore covers on their shoes, and cleaned up plaster work, like they were never here. They fixed a stuck garbage disposal and put in a wedge to reposition my Ring doorbell; gratis. They gave me a three year warranty on the work.
I would hire them again in a minute.

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.

Service was efficient and thorough. They also took care to ensure adequate permits were issued from the township prior to the work being scheduled.

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.

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 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.

This guy must be paying for his reviews.
He came to my home....late. OK fine, people get busy.
I showed him 2 ceiling lights that were not working. He only removed one switch plate, I had to give him a screwdriver, and put his volt meter up to the switch not to the terminals, then proceeds to tell me the the current is weak. At this point he must think I'm an idiot, but I play along. We go down to the basement and he looks at the panel and says, he's going to have to bring a second guy so that they can find a break in the wire somewhere in the wall. According to him it may take a couple of hours or it may take a full day.
I say thank you very much and escort him out. The problem folks .......... A bad light switch, cost $3.00 from Home Depot.

I've used Stahl Electric ever since I first moved to Philadelphia almost 20 years ago and they were recommended by Arch Street Lighting. I've had them in my current house at least a half-dozen times for new outlets and light fixtures, as well as little things like fixing my doorbell and broken switches. When Alex told me the last time he was here to install some new ceiling fixtures that I had knob and tube wiring that really should be replaced (something I'd always suspected due to the age of the house but didn't really want to know about), I decided I'd better just get it done instead of brooding about it.
Ira came to give me an estimate; he went over the whole house with me, explaining what would have to be done, counting all the fixtures, outlets, and switches so he could give me an accurate estimate (which ended up being exactly the price I paid, no unpleasant surprises at the end). They were so busy that the rewiring had to be scheduled a couple of months later, but when the time came for the work they were able to put extra crews on the job and instead of the predicted week and a half it only took four days!
The guys who did the work were absolutely fantastic; they carefully covered everything with plastic (furniture, the clothes in my walk-in closet; I mean EVERYTHING) and dropcloths on the floors. They made only very small holes in the walls, and not nearly as many as I expected, and patched them very nicely. They cleaned up so thoroughly every day and moved my furniture back into place so perfectly that I could hardly tell they'd been there.
Matt was very good about explaining everything they were doing and letting me know when I had choices about things like the locations of switches and outlets. And all the guys, several of whom I knew from earlier jobs in my house, like Louis and Alex, were friendly and courteous -- as Stahl's electricians have always been -- obviously mindful of the fact that they were invading my home and disrupting my life, and trying not to make it any more unpleasant than necessary.
I have to really mention Kelly in the office as well; she is always so helpful and friendly and efficient when I call that I couldn't ask for a better customer service experience.
I had been really dreading having to have the work done, but in the end it was not a bad experience at all and was over with so quickly that I was absolutely thrilled. I will continue to use Stahl for all my electrical needs. Thanks again, Ira, for running such a great company!

Best electrician ever! I am so happy to find him. He came out on a Sunday evening. He is personable and reasonable. I will be calling him again for more electrical work. This is a guy you can trust.

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!

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.

Highly recommend!! I had to get lots of work done on my home per a home inspection report and the township's C.O. Michael came out at 7:30 in the morning and worked off of a checklist, completing everything before noon. Very friendly, very professional, very competent. Brian (the owner) ensured that everything was working before they left. The price was reasonable, and I will certainly use them again. Great job, McGoldrick and Paul!

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.
