Best Businesses in Seattle, WA

I've been doing a kitchen remodel and electical work was the one thing I needed to hire someone for.  I needed new overhead lighting, some additional outlets, a solution for a dark pantry and wiring for a new vent hood.  I called three or four places that resulted in being stood up for appointments or never receiving a bid after the appointment and several calls.  Then I talked to Rick at Wilderness Electric.  He was on time to the appointment and provided me with a bid the next day.

Steve did the work on my house, and he was great.  He got the work started and inspected.  Then I needed to complete some projects in order for him to finish the work.  It took me longer than expected, but once I was ready he came out again to finish everything up.  

He really took the time to make sure the lighting was both efficient and looked great.  These guys know what they're doing and make sure it's done right!

Shawn was fantastic and I'd highly recommend him. From start to finish, he was a prompt and patient communicator, which can't be said for most contractors. He quickly returned my call, found time for a comprehensive estimate and offered a competitive quote to upgrade my service, and replace my panel, install a car charger, and a many more small tasks.

During the project, he was efficient while taking time to answer all my questions and explain everything in layman's terms. He was always super considerate to do everything the right way, even if it wasn't the fastest way.

All in all, Shawn was great.

John is my contractor of the year. I unknowingly had an external outlet wired to and overloading a 20 amp breaker. He created a dedicated breaker in the panel for said outlet and now I am able to operate irrigation in a safe, reliable, up-to-code manner.

Here's what I like about Sparks:
1. No discovery process, booking fees or scheduling friction.
2. Showed up on time and prepared to do the project.
3. Straight forward pricing.
4. Specializes in services / electrical repair.
5. Educates and informs along the way.
6. Completed the project in one hour flat.
7. Snoqualmie Valley target market - the home team.

Thank you John, you're my go-to electrician moving forward!

I scheduled Neptune Electric out to my work for a job. We needed a washer dryer connection set up as well as electricity brought out to an outer building. They were very responsive to communications which is much appreciated when you too are running a small business. They came and finished in a timely manner with no disruption to our day and stayed on budget. I cannot tell you how much it means to be able to find a company you can trust to do great work and be honest. I would recommend this company to anyone who asks.

Outstanding work finished up with a cleaned area. I had five electrical outlets installed all five definitely needed an electrician that knew what he was doing. Great work! Extremely happy!

Very nice to work with and very professional. Did a great job for us and we will definitely use their services again and recommend them to anyone who needs an electrician.

I found this company off their advertisement on craigslist and then naturally I checked out their yelp reviews. I was impressed that they had such high ratings and figured it was worth a shot.

I needed to get a meter relocated in our house for future remodeling project. 24/7 lived up to their name as they were very responsive to my inquiry about getting a quote and responded quickly via e-mail. On the scheduled date for the bid the electrician came out on time and reviewed the job and gave a written quote.

I had already gotten a quote from another company and 24/7 was much more competitive on their pricing.

I called the electrician to understand what exactly the work would entail (my wife handled the initial interaction for the quote) and he explained everything in detail over the phone. When I was ready to move forward they were able to accommodate me the next day!

The work itself was done correctly and they electricians that came out cleaned up after themselves and put everything back the way it was.

There was one small communication issue with the city inspector and the electrician in providing me an explanation for some additional work that needed to be completed. So I was going to have pay a small additional amount after I had paid for the work and the inspection was completed. However 24/7 stepped up and recognized they made a mistake in communicating effectively to me and covered that small expense. That shows they really care about their customer service and ensuring that the customer is satisfied.

I gave them 5 stars because they were very responsive (by e-mail and phone), on time, competitive on pricing, clean and thorough in their work and ultimately showed they care about customer satisfaction.

I highly recommend them!

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 Kingsley is prompt, professional and friendly.  He and Sanders did a great job repairing and replacing fixtures as well as installing new lights.  I would recommend Northstar for your electrical needs.

Twice this year Matt at Bird Electric responded quickly to an emergency situation at my rental house in Suquamish. The first time the mast and meter was pulled off the house by a fallen branch. Matt was on site early the same morning, assessed the damage without drama and had two men working on the repairs before noon. Awesome! The second time a tree had fallen across the power lines and PSE's transformer fell off the pole sending a power surge down the line that destroyed all of the home's appliances, the GFIC's and many of the LED lights. Again, Matt quickly assessed the situation, reassured my tenant that there was nothing wrong with the home's electrical system, made recommendations to improve and protect, then sent a very competent and professional electrician (Kevin) to make the necessary repairs and improvements. Unheard of customer service in today's world!! Many thanks to Bird Electric, Matt and Kevin!

Justin came to help put in new lighting fixtures we bought. We had a couple canned lights that needed to be updated, as well as a light switch that led to an outlet that was broken. He fixed both! He was fast, efficient, and incredibly nice! If we ever need an electrician in the future he will be my first call! :)

Amazing service! I emailed Brian yesterday and he was over at my house by noon today. I rent out my townhome so I wasn't able to be there for the actual appointment but Brian was very easy to communicate with and he immediately billed me via email afterwards. SO nice to be able to landlord from afar! He went above and beyond by checking out other light fixtures within the house that the tenant had questions about and sent me links to the appropriate light bulbs to fix them. Pricing was completely reasonable for his services and he even has a first time Yelper $20 discount. All in all - awesome!!

Everyone I have dealt with at Galaxy Electric and Solar has been professional and nice. Prompt communication and great customer service.

Excellent response, service goes out of their way to help you in every way.  I will definitely use them for all future needs.

I did not use the services of this company. I called to get a quote on installing a fan in my bathroom. They were the only company in the area who could come out in a timely fashion, which in hindsight I totally understand. The guys who came out were nice, but showed me pictures they took of another customer's house, which I thought was strange. Then, I was quoted almost $2,000 for installing the bathroom fan! I almost fell over. With prices like that, no wonder they have pretty open availability. I wish I would have read the reviews and not wasted my time calling.

I've been working with Ross for years. First, he handled my personal lighting and electrical needs at my home in West Seattle. When I became a realtor, I started referring him to clients. Everyone is pleased with his work and that speaks volumes. He is always professional, always tidy, and knowledgeable. He does wonderful work and I will continue to refer him with confidence. You won't be disappointed!

The gentlemen out were courteous, prompt, and professional.  If you are looking for high quality work--be ready to pay for it.  The job took about 6 hours ( maybe 5.5 hours as they took a lunch break).  I paid with tax $1331.32.  This price put the job at roughly $200.00/hour which in my opinion is too much.  I would hire them again though.
