Best Smoke Detector Installation in Phoenix AZ

In general I am a DIY person. However, I have a newborn that doubles as a black hole for time so doing anything, much less a big project was out of the question.

I wanted to do three main projects - rewire the pool pad, install coach lights, and install a receptacle for a car charger in the garage. I checked NextDoor and found all the electricians that people suggested and contacted them all. I contacted 6 of them and this is how this all panned out.

2 never returned a call/email/showed up for their appointment
3 came out and gave a verbal estimate but never would return my calls/emails to give me a written quote.
1 came out to give me a verbal estimate, talked to me about my overall scope of my project, allowed me to change my mind over details a few times, measured the distances for the project, called/voicemail, and gave me a written quote.

Can you guess who the last one was? You guessed it - it was Ryan of Firefly. Everyone else was a dud.

I am not sure why there was such a discrepancy of levels of service. The only thing I can think of is that the scope of my project was simply too big for some of these guys OR it was simply more profitable to go do small jobs (lets face it, it is probably more profitable to change a fan than it is to do one of my big projects) and instead of just saying "this is too big for me, I'll pass" they just ignored me.

Who knows.

But Ryan came through. I actually only did two of my three projects - the pool pad rewire and installed a car charger. I over-engineered both projects and thus spent more so I cut one of the projects out until a later time.

My pool project was what I'd consider a pretty big residential project. I basically had a sub-panel installed which for me meant going from 0.5" conduit to 1.5" conduit and running big wires. To get all that out to the back yard we had to cut concrete. This may have been what scared some of the people off.

The only thing I can fault Ryan for is that I didn't completely confirm how I wanted the pool panel conduit to be ran. My previous conduit was ran along the bottom of my house and I thought that Ryan would remove that and install the new conduit in it's place. Instead he installed it higher on the wall. While this makes good engineering sense (less moisture up there), I was a bit taken back by the installation location. In the end it was fine it was just when I went and saw it after he was done I was a little taken back because it wasn't what I expected. Ryan did explain himself well and even showed me the old conduit that was rusted out due to it's location.

So in conclusion, if you want someone that will take you from verbal quote to work done AND all the steps in between then Ryan is a good guy to do business with, especially if your projects are beyond changing a fan or replacing a wall switch.

very good experience. Tommy and I had face time with me so that he could understand the job. Moreover, he gave very prompt replies on Yelp too. He installed Nema 14-50 for an EV for me.

First I used Adam to hep with a pool panel in a home in Tempe and was happy with his work.
A few months later, I asked Adam to help with a home in Mesa and Adam seemed like a completely different person. Adam missed a lot of phone calls on a Friday night. So, I was worried and had to scrap my Friday night plans to check up on him only to discover he was ok.
Then Adam showed up at random times the other days and was sporadic. At times Adam wouldn't answer phone calls or texts.
There was a time when a neighbor claimed that Adam was at our Mesa home and left the home with our backyard gate open and lying on the ground, exposing our backyard pool to children.
Adam started to show some attitude and seemed to charge too much. Eventually, I decided to have another company finish work on a few remaining issues.

Getting an EV Charger installed? Called these folks after getting a crazy high, price gouging, quote of $1100 from another large electrical company to install a Tesla wall charger I had. When I challenged the price they dropped it to $600. Nope... not going to do business with companies that play that game. The run was less than 3 feet from the panel and the number was way too high so I called Static Sun. They told me it would be between 400 to 550 dollars depending on the length of the run based on what I told them. They came out that same day and the two electricians that came where courteous and knew their stuff. They did a really clean installation and the final bill was $450..... which was a really fair price.

Solid company and great service. Thank you for being honest and reasonable. It's refreshing to see this type of service.

Fantastic service and quick availability! I found myself in a bind and hired J Ryan Electric based on a referal. The techs were on time, went the extra mile and when I got my bill I was relieved they were fair with their pricing and didn't add on silly and absorbent fees. Once again, going local pays off. I would highly record J Ryan!!

Extremely timely, affordable, professional. And cute!!! If you want hunky electricians (that are great at their job!) at your service, these are the guys for you. Thank you, Armstrong Electric!

Very fair pricing, excellent work.  Arrived on schedule and on time.  Extremely happy and highly recommend DTL Electric.

They took on a very difficult and complex job of doing all the electrical for a floors-up renovation of a run down car wash in Sedona, Arizona. We installed all new state-of-the-art wash equipment equipment, a new electrical service, an outside touch screen express terminal, as well as doing numerous electrical repairs. Some electrical contractors were scared of it because of the complexity and the amount of analysis as well as sophisticated installation work needed to do it right. They did an excellent job and held to schedule, and later installed additional equipment to help reduce our power consumption.

Kevin and team are the consummate professionals.  Their work is impeccable,  follow up thorough and always available.   They did our Generac installation.  They did such a great job we had them do some lighting work,  then some sound installation.  These guys are definitely ones to keep in your contacts.
