Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

Pure Electric represents some of the best quality work and excellence in customer service that I've seen in the professional field of electricians.  We've used them for several projects at two of our houses over the past few years and are always extremely satisfied.

Each and every time we call, we get a call back within minutes if the phone isn't answered immediately, which is typically the case.  On short notice, they have come through to fix problems and enhance the beauty of both our homes.

Pure Electric installed recessed lighting in our kitchen earlier this year.  Not only was the attention to detail absolutely perfect, but the overall quality of the work was impeccable.  They represent  the best in customer service.  After the job was compete, they left the kitchen in perfect condition, ensuring that the area was cleaned before leaving.  

I've recommended Pure Electric to several co-workers, neighbors, and friends.  Everyone who was given them a chance has been very pleased with their work.  You won't be disappointed.

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!

Steve Bright is a great handyman.  He is conscientious, clean, and precise.  We had him perform two main jobs for us - fix a poorly installed tub, and patch the damaged ceiling underneath that tub.  Our tub was installed in a way that water was seeping behind it onto the ceiling of the first floor.  Steve performed a few ingenious - and now invisible - cuts in the tile around the tub, so he could adjust its position and cancel the leak.  When we got home from our vacation, I had to look closely to be sure he'd even been there, the place was so clean afterwards.  No leaking since.  For the ceiling, he had to cut a big chunk out of the plaster, which created a lot of dust.  To contain the dust, he erected a plastic shield, floor to ceiling, that created a special little room he could work in.  He did a great job, and was kind enough to work around our WFH schedule.  Also, on both jobs, he gave clear cost estimates, and kept himself within budget.  I would not hesitate to hire Steve for the other jobs needed around our old house, and look forward to seeing him drive up in his mobile workshop again.

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.

JB Electrical Services has done multiple jobs at my home and I am so impressed with their awesome service. Jeff answers calls/texts promptly and arrives on time. He has an admirable work ethic with the utmost knowledge and competence. Each job was done promptly and with professional results. I highly recommend JB Electrical Services if you're looking for quality work at a reasonable cost.

We had an issue with half the house losing power. Peco wasn't being very helpful. I called Campbell Electric and they care out within the hour, found the issue, and took care of it. Wade was timely, thorough, and helpful. I highly recommend these guys. Will be using them again the next time we need electrical repair work.

Thomas Edison Electric did a thorough job. I have been overwhelmingly pleased with the outcome. Their work was meticulous, and done in a very professional manner. They were punctual, courteous, and the electricians were neat and clean. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone.

Cobalt Electric installed 2 ceiling fans in my home.   I couldn't have asked for a better experience with their service.  Initially I was told it would be about 2 weeks before they could get to it, to my surprise 2 days later they were at my home doing the install.   They are thorough, efficient and cleaned up when the job was done.  I highly recommend them for any job you may have for them.

I never thought I'd find an electrician I could rate five stars! After trying numerous electricians who would never return my call and one who quoted me an outrageous price for the work, I finally got a rave recommendation from a coworker for Sam Van Horn. He and his in-laws had both had wonderful experiences with them, really going above and beyond with service.

Sam was responsive, honest and provided a quote thousands below the competition. He and his crew arrived on time, paid attention to details and were just outstandingly helpful. Can't recommend them enough.

Lou is an electrician that I trust and would highly recommend to anyone. He's  experienced and extremely knowledgeable and can handle any electrical job or project. Ive used him for over the years for a variety of work,  including replacing my old knob and tube outlets, replacing the original chandeliers in my dining room and installing an outlet for my dishwasher and 220 air  conditioner. He also replaced the knob and tube wiring and outdated outlets in my aunt's  house.  He's a true licensed electrician,  not a technician. Lou is as authentic as they come!

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 had a very unprofessional experience with Theo. First of all, it took weeks to schedule an appointment. I was very thorough in detailing the problem for him over email.

At the time of the appointment (on Saturday), he came to the house, spent 20 minutes, and then repeated the problem to me and told me he'd send me a proposal on Monday.

He sends me the proposal late Monday night, and it simply says i cannot give an estimate given the circumstances.

What? What circumstances? He couldn't have told me that on Saturday?

Now I've lost a month of time and still no solution to my problem.

VERY VERY unprofessional.

Called him on Saturday and made an appointment for Wednesday. I texted the address and the information about what needed work. I sent a confirmation text early on Wednesday and did not receive any response, no cancellation no nada, not cool
