Best Electricians in Seattle, WA

Highly Recommended!!!  Ask for Oreo, you won't be disappointed.  He took care of my work quickly and stressed the importance that he wanted it to look good.  Saw him take extra steps just to ensure the job was clean as if it was his own.  Very professional and made the experience extremely simple.  Can't go wrong!

Shawn responded promptly for my request for a quote. He and I arranged a date and time, which he kept his word and came to my house. The fix was simple and he didn't charge him. I am really impressed with his integrity and appreciate his honesty. I would definitely recommend Shawn.

I hired Jon to do some electrical work to bring powers to my AC, and I was very impressed by his service. He gave me a competitive quote, showed up on time, and completed the job quickly, and efficiently. He was very knowledgeable and explained well what he was doing. He also made sure it was working properly before he left. He was very professional, responsive and reliable throughout the process. I definitely recommend him for any small electrical work.

Yep - I'm glad we worked with Ben of Neptune Electric. A real person and very qualified electrician. Relaxed yet professional.  Showed up on time! He installed new lights in our closet (removing an old light and moving the light switch to the opposite end of the closet).  We breathe a sigh of relief and gratitude to Ben every time we switch on that light - we can finally see our stuff! thank you Ben!

I recently had an electrical problem that I was attempting to troubleshoot myself.  The people at Linder electric are very professional and courteous and treated me like their most important customer.  They provided guidance and assistance and treated me with respect.  They genuinely seemed to appreciate that I had called them.  More important, my problem got solved very quickly.  I would recommend them as an electrical contractor to anyone and would not consider anyone else if and when I need major electrical work done.

I had a electrical problem at the house.  Company was booked  out for weeks.  The person who helped me on phone walked me through my issue and saved me money at the same time.  Thanks for the help.

I had 24/7 Electric come out to my house back in February of 2022 to upgrade my electric panel and add an electric vehicle charging port.  Adam and Jason were the primary electricians.  They were very professional and good at their job.  I am extremely pleased with the quality of work.

I have a 1950's house and the panel in an awkward location from the outside meter.  Adam did a great job dealing with the many difficulties, both big and small.  He even stayed past 9 P.M. so that my power could be restored.

The owner had come out to give me the estimate.  He was knowledgeable and did not try to upsell or pressure me.

Front office staff was also pleasant to talk to.

This guy is great (Dean Drew).  This is the second time I have used him. The first time was to install some new electrical work in my basement. The most recent time was to install a dishwasher. Here is why he is great:
1. He is bonded/insured and very professional.
2. He is extremely honest in his quotes- he will not low-ball you to earn your business. He will explain what kind of concerns or issues he may run in to during the work and the range of expenses this might result in.  He then quotes on the high end to reflect potential unexpected costs. His bill in both cases was much lower.
3. Great quality work- everything looks great. the place was clean. he was quickly in and out.

I highly recommend this guy. He specializes in all aspects of your home repair (painting, cabinetry, remodels, plumbing, wiring, etc.) and has a knack for working on older Seattle homes (1900's).

David is a mensch, and a careful, efficient and effective electrician.  He responded to a sunny Sunday afternoon voicemail of distress in under 15 minutes and was at our location 15 minutes later.  He diagnosed our issue carefully and after assuring himself that the fix wouldn't cause other problems, got the job done and the power running again.

Rob and his team have done two jobs for us -- our family room and most recently our dining room -- and the easiest thing to say is they are amazing! From planning through to execution, everything is done with an eye towards a really satisfying outcome for the homeowners. Rob spent a lot of time helping us decide the right lighting to use, was fair and flexible in his estimates, and the work done by the team was super quality. Everything was completed quickly, cleanly, and I felt secure in knowing it was done right. Highly recommended!

Local electricians didn't get back to me after 2 calls and a ping on Yelp.  Guess they don't need the business.

Matt was awesome. He came to our home, listened to what the issue was, diagnosed, communicated what needed to be done, and fixed. Boom. Straightforward, no-nonsense, pleasant, professional and got the job done in good time. Thank you.

The job could not have gone more smoothly. Brian  installed  a 220 line and fixed a non-functioning 110. He researched our issue before he came to give a bid. I can't imagine finding anyone more flexible and able.  He got done ahead of schedule, as well, and did a great job putting my yard back together.    (The job required digging a ditch. I couldn't believe how much dirt that displaced). HIghly recommend.

My garbage disposer started leaking; so I called a plumber to take care of it. The fastest turnaround was going to be at least two weeks. Too long to deal with the wet mess under the sink! I decided to watch some how-to videos and change it out myself.
Except....
the disposer was hardwired and complicated beyond belief!
So, I called Galaxy Electric to add an outlet under the sink so I'd be able to change the disposer myself.
Not only did the owner Pete come out himself the next day to put in the outlet, he changed out the disposer for me...and he did it all for a fair price!
To say I am a fan of Pete's company is an understatement. Galaxy Electric and Solar is the best!

Jake and John are superior. Had an old standby generator replaced with a new one and couldn't be happier. Although I had to wait a while due to their bookings,
it was well worth it. Arrived when scheduled and worked very long hours to complete the job. I would not hesitate to use them for future electrical work.

Very poor communication and customer service all the way through this company. I am a small business owner and had a light go out at my location. I called Mr. Electric and scheduled a free consultation. I had the manager Obed (?) come out and look at my situation and he told me that my ballast was out and that it would be $328 to replace. After thinking about it for a couple of days I decided to have them do the job.

I called to schedule out the job and was told that they were very busy but that they could do it in 3 weeks. I accepted those terms and scheduled out the job. On the day of the job, 2 gentlemen from Mr. Electric showed up and after about 20 minutes of working on the job they came to the realization that they did not have the correct ballast on hand. (To my amazement, I could not understand why the manager who was out 3 weeks prior did not confirm what parts were needed to do this job.) The installers drove around to local stores but could not find the correct part. They told me that they had ordered the correct part and that it should be in by the following day or the day after and they would be back out to install.

2 days had past and I still hadn't heard anything from the company. I called in frustrated, and was told that the part had not arrived yet but that it would be in on Tuesday and the manager himself would come in to do the job. Through my frustration the dispatcher put me on hold and got approval from the owner (Larry) to offer me a $75 credit off the job due to dropping the ball.

Tuesday came and went without any communication from Mr. Electric. On Wednesday I again had to call them to find out what was going on. I spoke to the same dispatcher who now told me that the soonest they could get someone out was Friday. At this point I admit, I was highly frustrated by the lack of communication as well as terrible customer service given to me. They showed no empathy or owned up to any of their mistakes along the way. Still at this point, I needed the job done so I accepted the Friday appointment.

Now here is where it gets ridiculous. Obed (?) the manager shows up to do the job. He tells me that he needs payment before he can start and gives me the amount. The amount he presents me with is the original quote of $328. I remind him of the $75 credit that they had offered me, and he says that can't be done because $328 is the lowest price that I can get since the part I needed was a specialty part. As soon as I started to show frustration, Obed completely shut down and said he could not do this job and that he was going to leave. I even got the owner (Larry) on the phone to try and reason with him and remind him about the credit he had offered me. In his own words, yes, I offered you the $75 credit but I did not realize that it was a specialty ordered part and I can not honor it. So you can either pay the full amount or we are not able to do the job.

At this point I completely can understand where the poor communication and customer service comes from when speaking to dispatch and managers because if the owner of the company is going to be this bad at it, it is going to trickle down and reflect through out. Need less to say, they left without doing the job and here I am, a month later and my light is still out. Pretty mind blowing. Do yourself a favor and please look elsewhere if you are in need of electric work.

I asked for an estimate multiple times which the owner promised but did not deliver. Instead I sent the owner a list that was a summary of the items we discussed which he had estimated 2-3 days to complete. After insisting on the cost before the project started, I received a rate in a text message which I multiplied by time estimate to come up with a cost.

After 2 days of work by two electricians sent by the owner, I received an invoice equivalent to cost of the entire project. At this point the lights were blinking and could only be shut off at the breaker, the fan was not working properly, and most of the work was still incomplete. I called the owner to ask why he was billing for the entire project. He said you can just pay it - we will get it done. When I said I shouldn't have to pay for the entire project before the work is complete and explained the problems so far, he said it's ok just pay part of it.

This led me to believe my understanding of the cost to complete the project and the rate was correct. I paid my estimated time they were at my house and thought the balance would be for the rest of the project. Instead, I got more invoices, the work wasn't getting done, and eventually needed to be fixed by other people.

Before hiring someone else, I requested an estimate for the remaining work and clarification as to how subsequent invoices were calculated got no response. I asked the owner in email if he could come on site to help finish up the project and got no response. After finding even more problems in my house (cut wires hid in the wall mentioned below) I asked the owner to call me multiple times and instead got numerous text messages. He promised to call me but never did.

Finally, I sent him a letter explaining the problems, sent a check I thought was fair, and hired someone else to finish the work. He refused to cash the check and put a lien on my house.

I hired two different electrical companies and below are the problems they found with the work.

Line voltage electricians:

* Unable to locate a permit in the city's online records.

* Found the dimmer at Living Room was the incorrect type which caused the lights to not work properly and at times not work at all. Replaced Dimmer and tested.

* Found the Electric Hot Water Heater Circuit was on a 20-Amp Circuit Breaker, code requires this to be on a 30 amp breaker to provide sufficient power. [TR: Electricians on site from Parker Electric told me on site the breaker did not need to be upgraded. The owner sent me a quote to upgrade the breaker after I hired someone else.]

* Found incorrect supply voltage at fan. Fan was supplied with 240v which caused the fan to fail. We re-wired fan for correct voltage of 120v and replaced fan.

* Found existing wiring to be fed from 15-Amp Lighting Circuit. Code requires a dedicated 20-Amp Circuit for Bathroom Receptacles. Corrected and tested.

* In addition, they completed all the items from a list I sent to the owner of Parker Electric after he came to my house to document what we discussed, which he said would take 2-3 days and was not anywhere near finished in that time frame and most of what was had to be re-done.

These are the items documented by the low voltage electricians:

* Her exhaust fan for her rack was installed backwards.

* The new DSL line was terminated different on both sides so there is no way it could work.

* And I found spliced speaker wire hiding behind a 2 x 4.

* In addition to the above three items, the subsequent electricians quickly installed the boxes with banana plugs in the wall as I originally requested and never got from Parker Electric (in fact, I gave up after so many attempts and agreed to something I didn't want just to try to get things working). The new electricians got the stereo equipment working in less than one day the way I wanted, which Parker Electric didn't have completed after coming to my house four times.

I am very happy with the work done by the subsequent electricians.

Very satisfied with Sean.  He arrived on time and was very professional.  I especially liked that you know exactly what the cost will be for every item that needs to be done.  He explained everything to my satisfaction and completed the job in a timely manner.  I would definitely hire this company again. To those that think their prices are too high, I only have this comment, out of three electricians I have hired in the last two years we have lived here, they were the most professional.
