Best Businesses in Philadelphia, PA

Great service and response. Let me know exactly what needed to be done and why and cost was well worth the work

I need to acknowledge the crew at Parra Electric Inc. on Smithbridge Rd.  We had a kitchen remodeling job to do that needed the electric work done on two separate dates.  The crew came out for day 1 and did a great job. Phase 2 came up quicker then expected and we called Parra late in the afternoon not very confident they could get us on their schedule as soon as we needed the work to be done. Thankfully they were able to work us in and knocked on the door at 7 am the next morning to complete phase two. They did a great job

We had a critical issue with our incoming power line. Express came to our home the day I reached out to them to assess the situation, provide a solid solution and provide a reasonable estimate. They schedule the job, arrived timely and completed the work professionally and timely. This company is responsible and respectful. We will be repeat customers.

I was very happy with the service I received from this company. We were ready to move into our new house but turned out the service wire was in really bad shape. We found out because the electric company said it's been over 5 years since that property had service running so we needed to hire some contractor to evaluate if the house was hook up ready before some one came out to actually turn it on. We pay this contractor or w/e guy $100 to pull out front and say I can tell you right now you fail. He took one look at that service wire and that was it. Our moving date had to be pushed.
We called a few local places, Zack Electric was able to give us a fast affordable quote and they met us that afternoon. The guys were really professional and polite, but they were funny and easygoing. The 2 of them were very thorough, they must have been in and out of there in 2 hours. We were really bummed we had to get it done, but they definitely made the situation much easier then I originally expected. I highly recommend them.

My husband and I bought a 120 year old house this fall and were looking for an electrician to remediate the knob and tube in a very tight two week period. Christian and his team were incredibly flexible and responsive and explained things super thoroughly to us as first time homeowners. Since the K&T removal, we have had them back for various projects around the house (fixing outdoor electric hookups, installing light fixtures, and doorbells) and the work is always done extremely well and fast! We will 100% be using them for all of our electrical needs in the future. I've recommended them to a couple of friends and cannot speak highly enough of this business!!

Ryan remodeled my kitchen and did a wonderful job.  I had him knock down a wall to open it to the dining room too.  It changed the entire first floor.  He is a perfectionist.  I love it.

SG Electric was a true lifesaver today. We had an electrical emergency today. We had just returned from a Corona-19 shopping trip and put a lot of perishable food in our garage refrigerator. We noticed that our refrigerator had stopped working as well as our garage door. We looked on Yelp and Immediately saw SG was rated highly and contacted him.  Steve was in the city and said he would stop by in about an hour or so. We were surprised that he would be able to get to us today as we contacted him around 3pm. But true to his word he arrived at our home around 4pm. While we thought the solution was going to be to replace a GFCI outlet, it was not and Steve methodically troubleshot and resolved the problem. It turned out to be an outdoor outlet on the GFCI circuit. Both of our outdoor outlets were old and the covers were not adequate. He replaced both of our outdoor outlets with far superior outlets with rugged covers. Steve is an extremely competent electrician as well as a genuinely nice person. And the bottom line was that the cost for all of this was just a little more than his original estimate for replacing the GFCI Outlet. If you are in need of an electrician , give SG a chance, I think you'll be glad you did.

I have used Tom Sullivan several times. He has installed a toilet & done other jobs for me. He is always competent & professional with fair prices..

Under promised and over delivered. Mr. Daniels installed a gas boiler and eleven radiators in my 104 year old, three story row-house. He completed the job ahead of schedule, continually followed up as I worked with PGW to install new gas lines, and charged me a very reasonable price. He also provided a detailed, step by step explanation of the project and much well considered advice. It was a pleasure doing business with Nate and company.

I spoke to Jaime and email her pictures of the outdoor outlets that need to be replaced.  She gave me a quote and we set up the appointment.  Ken came by today and replace the switch and the GFI pool outlets. Excellent work and I highly recommend his service.

Called to schedule, seemed very wish-washy on the phone at first about when/if they could come out. First he said he'd just call me sometime the following week, but I asked to actually schedule something, so he gave me a day and a time range. Never showed up, no phone call, nothing. This seems on par with what a couple other reviews said below. So I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

I wish I could give Dave Early 0 stars. If you need work in your home, don't hire him. Dave is dishonest. He does not have enough experience for remodeling, especially bathroom, in which I hired him to do. I did not check references or reviews.
First of all he was always late. Most days he was unprepared for the job and had to go to Home Depot or Lowes every day, which took time out of the work day. Most of his work was wrong and had to be torn down by another contractor that did the work correctly. It was also very messy and sloppy. I had 4 contractors tell me they would tare out most of his work and start over. I wish I could show you the pictures. The plumbing was wrong, and he used green board where he should have used hardy board in the shower and used minimal red guard. I had him stop after the first row of tile because he put super thick uneven thinset with gaps everywhere, not flush with the wall. It was a mess. He also took my toilet off every day and put it back without tightening the bolts and caused the toilet to leak. He also fell trying to install the bathtub and put a large hole in the ceiling. I overpaid him. He should be giving me back at least $2000. He now ignores my calls and messaged and won't get back to me on the issues. I can not take him to court since the courts are closed because of COVID. Hopefully anyone who needs work done reads this review. He is very unprofessional and dishonest. I'm a single mon with a special needs son....it doesn't seem to bother him if he has a conscience.

..... Warning...... warning........ Warning....... Warning........ Warning....... Warning......
Lowery services charged me $1000 dollars an hour for four hours work.... $4200 an hour to install a water supply line that was deliberately  install to shallow to prevent freezing. This company is predatory in  its practices.  a water supply line should never freeze. Lowery services General managers inspected the incorrect installation within six months of the original work.. Not only did they refuse to do the job correctly placing the water supply line deeper in the ground they wanted to install ridiculous space heaters and Pipe insulation that would never prevent freezing.  Lowery services wants to sell me frozen pipe insurance. This is mercenary predatory practices design to cost consumers unnecessary burden... Never at any point in time should the main water supply line to your home freeze.... To sell you frozen pipe insurance is a deliberate scam......
.........Warn your family warn your friends lowering services is a predatory Company ............
