Best in New York NY

Away on vacation, pipes burst... a wonderful neighbor went to my home, turned off the main water value / firemen turned off circuit breakers... now what?
I called Ian (from Scotties Electric). He was unbelievable, immediately he found a Plumber ( i had called many with no luck)... Ian went to my home to meet the plumber who repaired the pipes, and Ian restored my electric, heat, etc... my home would have been seriously damaged had it not been for Ian.

We were fooled by the high Yelp rating. BUYER BEWARE. TOTAL SCAM ARTISTS, hack plumbers and electricians. Make sure you scroll down to bottom of the reviews page to click on '41 other reviews that are not currently recommended'. Somehow this way their bad reviews are hidden. We hired Ricardo and Dinesh to relocate our gas and water lines and add electric to build a brand new kitchen. Plumber license 1504 belongs to a master plumber called Johnny (Johnny P&H contrac inc). CN hides this as he has terrible reviews!

1. Ricardo sold us on the idea that they have done this before and would drill holes through the center of the floor joists according to DOB code to move the lines but instead they cut 12 inches by 3 inch deep cuts on the top of structural floor joists, and several holes for electrical totally illegal and not to code and dangerous. My husband knows the building codes, and was shocked to see this so he brought in a structural engineer who said the floors are compromised and unsafe and not to let them even touch the joists any further. When my husband questioned Ricardo, he became aggressive and said drilling holes through the joists would require much more labor and materials, but that is what we had paid him a lot of money for!!! Now we are spending thousands of dollars getting it fixed. THEY HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF EVEN BASIC NYC BUILDING CODES. See the pics, THEY BOTCHED 10 structural joists in the living room.

2. They cut the ceiling of our downstairs neighbor, left early without informing my husband. Our neighbor was furious, and when my husband called Dinesh, he made up LIES AND EXCUSES acting like he didn't know what happened.

LASTLY #3 - They illegally shut off gas meters without immediately notifying DOB & Con Edison of gas leaks which is required by law and waited 1 week to notify DOB & Con Edison because they were trying to sell the co-op board on a $91,000 solution to fix the basement and when the board asked them for more documentation and details after a walkthrough on Friday at 5:30 PM, they knew they couldn't provide legal documentation and continue the scam of the co-op so they immediately notified DOB & Con Edison only for them to come on Friday night at 8:30 PM to shut off gas for the whole building BEFORE THE SNOWSTORM.

I STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO NOT FALL FOR THEIR TACTICS AND USE SOMEONE ELSE FOR YOUR PROJECT.

Here's a direct message showing his true character. He yelled at my wife over the phone a while back when she asked him to honor a promo. Now he wants honest negative reviews stifled.

He successfully wired 3 switches within a hour. I had the old wires which I believe didn't have a neutral and he was able to install them successfully without rewiring.

I recently bought a Tesla Wall Charger, needed it to be installed on the side of my house. Vin at Aufiero Electric showed up on time. He was wearing a mask. He was very professional and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions. He genuinely takes pride on his work and is very meticulous. My house was built on or before the 1900s. He problem-solved where to run the wire from the electrical panel box that is on the opposite side of the basement to outside the side of my house. Since the house was built a long time ago so it was rather complicated, Vin showed his expertise and successfully installed my new tesla gen 3 wall charger. I highly recommend this company. The price was very reasonable given the complexity of the wiring install. This is a company you can definitely trust.

They came on short notice to address an electrical concern on a work-in-progress renovation.  They addressed our concerns with the utmost professionalism, and worked with us to plan needed electrical work in a way that was minimally invasive and code-compliant.

They are super nice guys, smart, professional, and worth every penny. Highly recommend this father-son team!

Steve did a small project for me. He arrived on time, was clean, efficient and reasonably priced (exactly what he quoted).

When discussing the quote, he even offered an alternate solution to what I was requesting which could save me some bucks. I will definitely use Connect again if the news arises.

I have been using Dynamic Electrical Contractors for years. Both the owners are reliable, honest, hardworking - and always get the job done and on time. They were extremely patient and had a lot of great ideas. It has been a pleasure working with them and their crew.

Hired them to help us figure out our electrical issues in our brownstone. They were awesome.

Further update: Brian quickly resolved the issues and we are happy customers!

Updated:  Brian called me back today and explained he was out and hence the delay in getting back to me.  He took responsibility and took over the issues and now I feel like I'm back in the hands of a professional company.  He said he would have someone come out to look at what was done and repair as needed and see why the estimate was so far off.  This is why I like and support local businesses where I can.  Issues happen with everybody, but local means accountability and people who care about their work product.

Old review: Extremely disappointed in the service from this company.  Saw the reviews and assumed they would be reliable.  Their estimator came in to tell us the cost of our project (replacing, adding, and moving outlets on the first floor, and adding a ceiling fan).  He gave us a reasonable quote so we hired them.  When the electricians came to do the job, they said he was way off and added over $1000 to our total to get the same job done.  WOW. The guys who came were nice enough so my husband and I didn't want to bother restarting the process. One strike.  When they finished the job, they forget to patch up the hole in the bathroom where they moved one of the outlets.  Fine. My husband patched it up.  Strike two.  Strike three was the next morning when I came to find that the kitchen outlets which share a wall with the bathroom outlets they moved and pulled a ground from stopped working.  Seriously? I called them Monday and Tuesday morning to let them know I needed someone to come in and fix whatever it is they did.  Each time I was told by the very nice girl on the phone that would have to have the owner, Brian, get back to me.  It's Thursday.  No call to even acknowledge the problem and give me a date to have someone come out.  I don't like to disparage local businesses needlessly, but this is just ridiculous.  Between the last minute price switch, incomplete patch job, and now no response to having them fix what they messed up? I have to draw the line somewhere.

If you need any electrical work done at your home, Dave is the person to call! He is the BEST!!!  We were having problems with our electricity(it kept flickering on and off).  My husband called Dave and he called him back immediately.  Dave came over and quickly assessed the problem(our electrical box was corroded from water damage and it needed to be replaced).  Dave was prompt and effective.  In addition, his prices were reasonable for the amount of work that needed to be done.  He also left our home clean and neat.  We will definitely use Dave for all of our future electrical needs!

He demanded payment before he finished and he never finished. He did 60 percent of the job and took the money and he uses unlicensed people. The electric inspector failed the work he did. He changed the panel box used the wrong breakers and the wrong wiring. Half the outlets were not grounded. The overhead lights in 6 out of 9 rooms in the home stopped working after he changed the panel box. Please see the attached report.

Response to Devesh's response:
What you wrote here is untrue. You were forced to come back to the house to correct your work by the electrical inspector or you were going to have a huge problem with your license. At first you were not even answering his calls etc. Anyhow he told you everything you did wrong which I will attach the failed inspection report here, then you corrected it and now everything is working. The companies I had doing work at my home are licensed companies that were doing legal construction work under their NJ Contractor License. They did not do any electrical work. Everything you did was listed on the permit you took out and that was the only electrical work that was done in the house, was done by you, or rather your electrical contractors, one of which is unlicensed and not a legal citizen of this country. I can pursue this because that it illegal. Also if you don't remove my address from your review I will inform the police because you are not allowed to broadcast my address here online sir. Kindly remove my address or I will have the police at your door thank you. As you see I am not listing your home address out of respect for your privacy.

Ps. I read your other reviews. It seems that you only have one good worker now and that is Jim. The rest are not legal. The other workers you used to have stopped working for you because you don't pay them and they quit. This was told to me by one of your current workers and by one the contractors working on my home. If you are fair with your workers you can have good work done and this type of thing won't happen but you hired illegal unlicensed people to work on my home and cause a huge FIRE HAZARD. This is not fair because I paid you top dollar for legal electrical work and you defrauded me.

UPDATE: The electrical inspector came for a second inspection this week since the first one failed for Devesh Thaler of Kunal Electric, and Kunal Electric failed inspection. The breaker he put in the new panel box for the pool is not GFI and the electrical inspector from Woodbridge Township New Jersey told me this is extremely dangerous and that no one can go in the pool or they will die. I let the owner of Kunal electric (Devesh Thakker) know about the severity of the situation and he is not answering my calls. The electrical inspector has also put this in the report which I will attach here as well and he is not answering the electrical inspectors calls either. Sir, you should not hold an electric license and certainly you should not be entrusted into peoples homes. Have a conscience and stop endangering people's lives. Electric is a very serious matter and when someone hires a Licensed Electrician, they do not deserve to have unlicensed people who are not legal in this country do the work, as you have done to me. This is wrong.

Please see new failed Inspection Report attached

Craig was excellent.  He was able to pinpoint why our light fixture wasn't working and was able to replace it in no time.  He was on time, communicative, and very knowledgable. I will certainly plan to call him next time for any electrical needs--I highly recommend!
