Gladiator Electric

When our electrician retired, we needed to find a new one to do some work around the house. Gladiator is close to our home, and when they first moved in, we had a nice conversation with the owner, Mike. On top of that, they got great reviews from our neighbors in the local Facebook group, so we decided to give them a try.

We decided right. They worked fast, accurately, let us know what was going on, their prices were on the same order as our previous electrician (very reasonable), and, if the work hadn't been completed, you would never have known that any work  had been done. Strongly recommended.

Professional and responsive and efficient. The team installed my Tesla charger at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

They work hard and deserve every 5 star.

I can't tell you how many electricians I called during this time (good electricians with equally rave reviews on this app or recommended by family). I left many messages, sometimes multiple messages to the same place, without getting a return call.

I emailed Gladiator Electrics once and Mike responded back right away. He set realistic expectations for when they had their next availability, and was able to schedule us in. We had some minor things that we needed repaired in our home inspection along with light fixture installation. Mike sent a quote to us right away for each thing we needed. We even received a reminder email.

Eric came the scheduled day. At first I thought that maybe we would have to explain to Eric everything we sent to Mike (not that it would be a big deal). I was impressed that Eric was actually already thoroughly familiar with everything that we discussed with Mike via email, and even the things in our home inspection . He was well prepared and did a great job, and really educated us also as first time homeowners about things like our dimmers, recessed lighting, etc.

Mike runs his place like a true business. His team is  professional, responsive, transparent, and respectful. I would recommend them to anyone.

I went with Gladiator Electric to have Nema 14-30 installed for electric vehicle charging.  Mike from Gladiator Electric was very responsive and did not mind answering numerous questions that I had asked prior to agreeing to have the work done.  The two electricians that arrived to complete the task were professional, courteous, and also knowledgeable.  I would highly recommended!

Installed 60A hardwire ChargePoint EV charger, 50' run from unfinished basement 200A main panel to attached garage.

Gladiator Electric website was easy to navigate, and clearly specified what pictures needed to be uploaded for a quote without requiring a visit.

Mike was very prompt and professional in all communications.  Dylan and Eric arrived promptly, worked diligently, were courteous, and completed the job neatly in 2 hours.  Subsequent inspection passed with flying colors.

By far the most responsive and professional electricians we have ever used. My mother was overwhelmed with an electricity problem that other electricians immediately said they didn't know they could fix. Gladiator asked the right questions but were positive they could help-- and they did. They went above and beyond! They spoke to her management office, PSEG to coordinate service and just assured my mom that they had it covered. This is definitely the company you want to hire for your next job.

I contacted Gladiator Electric to see if they could replace a small ceiling light fixture (no fan) with a pull chain.  I had already bought the replacement light.

I ultimately reached them through Yelp's messaging system, and the owner, Mike, replied within 30 minutes.  I told him the work that needed to be done and a picture of the replacement light fixture.  Since it wasn't an urgent request, Mike gave me a quote that was very reasonable and a list of available times in the following week.  Upon confirmation of the job, I received an email and text that went to their website that listed my job, the price of it, and who was performing the work (Eric).

In the following week, on the day of the job, I received a text from their website, indicating their estimated time of arrival.  Eric the electrician showed up on schedule.  I handed him the replacement light and showed him where the old light was located.  Eric asked some additional questions about the electrical wiring, which I answered to the best of my ability.  He brought in his small utility ladder and got to work.  I chatted with him a little bit initially, and Eric was a super friendly guy.  I then left him to do his work.  He finished the work in about 25 minutes.  I paid Gladiator, and Eric was off to his next job.

I am very happy with Gladiator's workmanship, even though this was a small job.  I also like their computer system setup, as I could see the statement of work online and get status updates.  Gladiator Electric is very organized with its paperwork.  I hope to use them again in the future.

Worked with Mike and Gladiator to install a 240v in our garage to charge our Tesla Model 3.  We gathered three estimates; two of which were from the Tesla approved outside electricians.  Mike was by far the most knowledgeable and organized to work with.  Plus he's local, which was also another reason why we decided to go with Gladiator.

Ours was complicated because we have a detached garage so while one of the other electricians gave us the run around because he clearly didn't want to deal with trenching, Mike quoted us his price and followed through with the plan, including obtaining the permit with the town.  

The job was does efficiently and cleanly, and we couldn't have been happier with the entire process from beginning to end.  Absolutely recommend them.

Great Work. They were friendly, communicated clearly and constantly, and did great work. We can't say enough positives. They knew what they were doing and have it down to a science, we can't recommend them enough.

I needed a few small electrical jobs done. They had built up over the years. Since Gladiator Electric was charging me by the hour, a list of to-do's was waiting for them plus anticipated hardware.

First thing I noticed was their professionalism. I was getting quality text messages from them about scheduling, arrival time, and general communication. Gladiator Electric seemed like a bigger, corporate company, like GE Appliances. They get an A+ for managing our time well. You sign in their phone app to begin the work when they arrive.

Eric and Dylan gave my ~100 yr old apt the once over at each outlet and the fuse panel, fixing what could be fixed, and checked my electrical work.

Overall, this was a very professional job, and they left it as clean as they found it. Considering that I've dealt with dozens of contractors these last few months in my reno, it was such an wonderful experience. I wish all contractors could be this good.

Quick update to reinforce the five star rating. Mike and his team especially Eric are expert troubleshooters. They resolved outdoor lighting that kept having the circuit breaker tripped in no time. Efficient and reasonable rates are why this company is so busy all the time. On top of it, they are accessible and very responsive to customers. I highly recommend them for any house or commercial establishment. They are simply the best.

Gladiator Electric replaced our old recessed lights and ceiling lights. We contacted them and a few days later Mike came and gave us quote.
On the day of the work, they came and quickly replaced the lighting fixtures. Very quick work and we are happy with their work. Very professional. We highly recommend these guys.

Got about seven quotes to get my Tesla charger installed, and Gladiator was the best fit for me. After a number of quotes you learn something about the electrician. Some quotes came in offering to install 100 amp service to 80 amp service. I didn't know the difference.

When Gladiator came in, the person explained to me why I should get 60 amp service. He looked at my panel and told me if I was running what I had hooked up already then I would be flipping the breaker if my laundry machine and dryer were on while I was using my service.

Ended up with an honest opinion on how to make it look good for my house to run the wire without leaving holes to patch. And when it came down to do the job, four electricians came and did a quick job, cleaned up and the quality of work was solid and experience was professional.

Wish I knew about these guys when I gutted my house and had a lot of work done. Honest and upfront electricians are hard to find. Well worth the effort to get that last quote. Will use for other jobs big or small.

Since my original review of Gladiator Electric, we have continued to call on Mike and his crew whenever a big or small job has been needed. We can count on Gladiator to:

1. Answer the phone
2. Show up on time, and follow up with communication
3. Give good, honest advice and estimates
4. Do top-notch work
5. Continue to be available for questions

These are the rare qualities that keep us happy and satisfied customers who will continue to rely on Gladiator for our electrical needs!

Mike and his team were nothing short of amazing! We had Mike come in and quote and after that one meeting we knew we would be going with Gladiator.
We had extensive knob and tube removal done and also many other electrical updates. They minimized the amount of walls that were cut open and we are very happy with the end result of everything.
Not only that, I work from home and had to be in their way every single day and they were so understanding and accommodating.
Highly recommend Gladiator to anyone needing some electrical work done.

My coworker recommended Mike and Gladiator Electric, and I can't thank him enough for the referral. Not only does Gladiator Electric do excellent work, but Mike does something miraculous that others don't: he COMMUNICATES. You'll receive responses quickly, you'll receive estimates and you'll receive communications about impending visits. There's no wondering or hoping, there's just KNOWING. I'll never understand why technicians in all fields don't seem to care about that one important concept, but communication makes all the difference in the world. And that's why Gladiator Electric is so busy and will stay that way. Thanks, Mike!

HELP WHEN I NEEDED IT!

When my old service panel died in the middle of the night, I called Gladiator Electric at 1:40am and I left a message.
Gladiator Electric called me back within five minutes!

They changed their schedule and arrived at my home at 7:30am that same morning.

Within 12 hours of my late night phone call, they had:

- obtained a work permit from my town
- disconnected and removed the old panel
- relocated, installed and reconnected the new panel
- tested the system under load and cleaned up after the job

All done courteously and at a very reasonable price.
Highly recommended, will use them in the future!
A+

I have used Gladiator Electric on multiple occasions for purposes of varying degrees of complexity over a period of a year and a half and they have always met expectations with flying colors and kept rates consistent and reasonable. Mike is a good and knowledgeable guy and easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Mike & The guys that work for him are fantastic. Always there quick and do the job correctly the first time. We have a 100 year old house that sometimes needs a little help. Always feel safe when they finish a job. Thanks Guys.

From the first moment we talked to Mike, we knew we picked the best Electricians! Mike provided us with a quote within hours of coming to see the scope of the work we needed to get done and got us scheduled with their next available date!  When the day came we received a text message stating that they were on their way. Once the team of  Eric R., Kyle, Dylan and Eric arrived, they were very professional and also very personable! They went over all the work that was to  be done and then got to work! They were clean, courteous, professional, COVID cautious and just overall great guys. Their knowledge was top notch and even helped us make some decisions on placement. They finished the work early based on a rough estimate that was provided in the beginning. You will not be disappointed if you hire Gladiator Electric LLC!

I used this company to do many repairs as well as upgrades with my home improvement project. Mike the owner was hands on and kept me updated every step of the way. His prices were reasonable and the workers were all knowledgeable in what they were doing. A+

My first time having to hire an electrician and these guys were great. I appreciated a fast response time, willingness to accommodate me the same day despite a busy schedule, coming even earlier than scheduled, and resolving the problem quickly. Eric answered all my questions and made useful recommendations.

Mike and his team are the BEST! Mike responds quickly, his quotes are very reasonable and every job is well done. So glad I found him!

Reached out for a quote and was answered within a half hour.

When they came out to do the work, company was communicative and thorough. Walked us through multiple solutions laying out the safest routes. Also gave us options for more cost effective solutions.

Would not hesitate to call again.

Great response time
They make a point of keeping contact with you by email or text
Professional and personable
Would highly recommend

We called for a quote on an electric panel upgrade. Mike was extremely professional, answered all of our questions and offered a very competitive price. The team arrived at our home promptly in the AM, completed the job quickly and cleaned everything before they left.
I would absolutely use their services again and recommend them to anyone. A++

Called Mike to get a couple of kitchen outlets fixed since they didn't seem to work. He showed up on time and recognized the problem right away. Not only did he fix the two outlets that were bad, but he checked a couple of nearby ones as well. Would absolutely call him again to do any electrical work I needed.

Mike and his team did an excellent job. He was extremely responsive and walked us through everything that was required for the job. His team upgraded our panel to 200amp service, installed two flood lights, two timed lights above our garage doors and an exterior outlet. The prices were more than fair and we will be using them for work in the future. We highly recommend using Gladiator Electric!

Called Mike on short notice for an electrical panel inspection. He made sure to squeeze me in as this was a part of a real estate transaction that was to be performed within a 24hr timeframe. Mike is a consummate professional. He did a thorough inspection and provided his assessment. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mike and his team and plan to use them for future projects I intend on doing at the house.

I have no words for this company, I am speechless. Never in my life have I ever hired a company to be so professional and organized!!! I would never let anyone else touch my Electricity in my house. 10 stars !!! From day 1 I knew I was in great hands from the price and service...... please hire only gladiator and trust me this is a real message

Hands down, a solid five stars for these guys. Excellent service from Mike and Brian. They called me the day before to discuss what was needed, arrived on time and did an amazing job.
On the phone, Mike asked whether he needed to take some extra materials with him and I said not to worry, I've got it all. Well, that wasn't nearly true, so these guys were able to do a great job under less than ideal conditions. And it worked out great! Again, solid five stars, thank you guys and I will be surely be calling you again.

I feel compelled to say how absolutely pleased we are to have hired Gladiator Electric. Mike & crew went above and beyond to make sure the work was handled with complete professionalism and courtesy! This included searching my property for extra siding to patch what they had to tear away, and also having enough supplies with them to install a flush mount ceiling light I bought at Lowes that was missing several installation parts.

If would recommend GLADIATOR ELECTRIC to ANYONE in need of reliable electric work.

Thanks guys!

After seeing all of Gladiator Electrics 5-star reviews I had high expectations. Mike and his team exceeded them all. I contacted them to hang two TV's, install recessed lighting, hang 2 chandeliers and a few other projects. The team worked quietly, efficiently and left the job spotless. We finally found a reliable electrician!

Mike and his team are very professional. I only needed repairs ; there is a minimum trip charge + materials + tax.  This company is highly recommended and is local so I went with them.  And I'm glad I did.. Will definitely recommend them to friends ..
 Best of all, Mike is very easy to get a hold of.. Prompt response all the time..

Reliable, detailed. Good work for a fair price.

Gladiator Electric did a phenomenal job replacing all our lighting and worked with our hvac installers to provide electricity on a complete air conditioning unit overhaul.  His team was fast, efficient and Mike was very quick to respond to any questions/concerns we had.

Gladiator did everything on time with no issues so far and at a very reasonable price.  Lights look great and I should have used Gladiator Electric to put lights at my old house - huge difference with proper lighting. Thanks again guys!

Mike at Gladiator knows his stuff. Fair pricing!! You never want to go with the cheapest guy. He did a service upgrade from 100 amp to 200 amp. Also installed a charger for my plug in hybrid. Soon after he left my dehumidifier went out and he got back in 15 minutes and determined it was a faulty extension cord. Problem solved. Next day noticed that our dryer vent duct had been inadvertently damaged by his crew, sent him a text and there he was with a new vent duct which he installed. For me that says it all. Competent and trust worthy!!!!!

Fabulous work by some really nice guys.

They showed up right on time, the price was as promised, and the work was of top quality. They cleaned up nicely afterwards and didn't miss a detail.

I have no problem giving them the highest of recommendations and am planning on using them many times again.

These guys were terrific! Mike is extremely competent, as well as easy going.  I had received a lower quote from somewhere else, but Mike gladly matched it. Installation was quick, and when they were done I realized that I didn't have any checks to pay him with.  He was completely understanding about it and let me mail it to him.  Awesome service and just simply a really nice guy.  I will definitely use him again!

We hired Gladiator Electric based upon wonderful web reviews.  These reviews were spot on.  Set up an appointment with Mike from Gladiator.  Received confirmation texts prior to and the morning of to keep us informed. They showed up promptly (early actually).  We had a list of items discussed prior to the call and some add-ons during the day of.  The hourly rate + materials was very reasonable. The Techs, Eric and Dylan, were extremely courteous and professional.  And nice peeps to boot!  The job tasks included Ceiling fixtures (remove/replace fans/lights), moving wall outlets, installing/pairing smart switches and outdoor GFCI outlets.  All done by 3 pm!  My wife and I were extremely pleased with every aspect of the job.  We already have some new tasks lined up for a second job with them.  i highly recommend !

I called Mike based only on yelp reviews as I was desperate for an issue which caused us to have no heat today (It was 1 degree outside at the time).  He was able to come out a couple hours later (same day!!!) and by then the issue had resolved.  He still took the time to look things over and because everything was okay, did not charge even for the service call.  Not that I am ever looking to need an electrician, but he stays on my list in case we ever do because my husband who was home at the time said he was courteous and knowledgeable, and obviously honest. I have already told all my coworkers about him.

They came and installed a new outlet and charging unit for my electric vehicle. It went smoothly and efficiently.  Very satisfied.

2 days ago I had set an appointment for the electrician to come out and give me an estimat the following day at 4:30 p.m.  He never showed up and when I called him he said he thought it was at 4:30 p.m. next Wednesday and then he changed his story to he didn't have the address although I had already texted it to him and he confirmed he received it. Talk about being a liar and being confused. We then set up an appointment for the following morning at 9 a.m. . He never showed up and didn't bother calling. I am upset I left work early yesterday and I'm upset I planned on going into work late today thinking this guy would show up. He has zero respect for people's time. If he couldn't make it or was running late, a simple phone call would have been acceptable. If you respect yourself and respect your time, don't bother calling this company.

I made an appointment to correct an error I made. Mike was prompt and cleaned up the work area very well.  I will be using Mike and Gladiator Electric for future service.

Great service with a reasonable price. Mike and his team came right on time and installed a new sub panel in addition to some other work. He explained what they were going to do and finished promptly. He also made said to get the right permits, etc. Highly recommend for complicated jobs, they were able to diagnose and address everything perfectly. Will use again for future electrical work!

No joke after a year of trying to get an electrician to our house and consistently being put off or businesses not returning phone calls, Mike was recommended to me. I'm in the service and repair business and I am a firm believer in top notch customer service. Mike and his team from Gladiator came to the house. Replaced a ceiling fan, installed some light/fan dimmer switches, replaced a switch in the hallway and repaired some defective wiring for the kitchen light. Totally professional and through service. He explained everything that was performed to me and made recommendations. If you need electric work performed, this is the company to call.

Mike and his team are awesome. We found an electrician we can trust. Highly recommended.

Mike P from Gladiator Electric was prompt, personable and professional. He provided stellar service at an affordable price. I would recommend him to my family. If you're looking for an honest electrician for your next job, definitely call Gladiator.

Fantastic, honest electrician.  

I have used Mike on two occasions for trouble shooting electric problems in a hi-rise, and I was extremely happy with his services.  His rates are more than reasonable, and his service is great.  I have dealt with a lot of electricians at a commercial property I managed, and I just found my new one that I actually like.

Gladiator is a class act. Highly professional in every way. I hired them to install security cameras around my home. Mike notified me of every cost and detail and answered every question i had about available options. Believe me i had plenty of questions. Well he was highly knowledgable and we finally decided on a brand and proceeded to scheduling. They showed up 5 min early and the guys worked the entire day. They were all very respectful and clean and by the end of the day the cameras worked perfectly and mike spent time teaching me how to operate them and all the associated apps. They are going to be installing a sound system in the house next and I will use them for all my electric needs.

I recently had my service upgraded and a generator transfer switch installed.  Mike and his employees were prompt and extremely professional.  No hesitation in recommending Gladiator, and I will use them again.

Great Electrician! We have used Mike at our home and at our business. He was always on time and very professional. His prices were very reasonable and his Workmanship is unmatched from any other electrician we have ever dealt with! I highly recommend Gladiator Electric!

Mike and the team at Gladiator Electric have done many lighting jobs at my house, and I couldnt be happier with the end product.  They are everything you could ask for: professional, courteous, accommodating, and efficient.  5 star recommendation all the way.

I had a good experience with Gladiator Electric. I needed a fan/light installed and connected to a switch that was dead in my house. Mike took care of it as well as some other minor work I needed to get done. He was relatively quick, straight forward, reasonably priced and professional about his work. I recommend and will use him again.

Mike and his team provide great service at a great price. Mike is quick with responses and provided a thorough check up when asked to come asses some of the problems we had. The best electrician I have ever worked with!

Mike and his team are great.  True professionals.  They perform top quality work at a great price.  I'll definitely use them for all electrical needs going forward.

Mike and his team are prompt, courteous and professional. I have had Mike do multiple jobs both inside and outside of my house and the end result has been very positive. I would highly recommend Mike.

I met Mike a few years ago when I went on some website and requested a free estimate for some electrical work and Mike was the first one to respond promptly the next morning.  I described the work and he quoted and I went with him.  He was reasonably priced and did the job perfectly and I gave his name out and 2 of my friends from town have used him and have been very satisfied with the work.  I recently needed some more electrical work done on the outside of my house mostly and Mike and his crew showed up on time and completed all the tasks wonderfully.  They were prompt, experienced, polite, trustworthy (I have no problem leaving any of them in my house even if I wasn't there as the same crew has been to my house many times now) and Gladiator Electric is very reasonably priced.  I really thought the prices were quite fair for the work which needed to be done.  Mike also made suggestions to me like installing lights outside which can be turned on by a button on or in my house and also controlled from my cell phone (I love the cell phone app - very convenient!!).  They even worked recently outside all day in very, very cold and windy weather and I had another person for a different kind of job cancel because his workers didn't show because they thought it was too cold to work all day outside.  I'm giving Gladiator 5 stars because I really think they deserve it - prompt, fair pricing, very competent, they think outside the box by making suggestions of new products and solutions to problems and they take the small jobs along with the big ones (they showed up asap and fixed a small electrical issue with my outdoor fountain).  Daryl W.
