Best Bathroom Light Fixture Installation in Philadelphia PA
Despite being a frequent Yelp user, this is the first time I've felt compelled to write a review. I contacted Greg via Yelp's generic request a quote link. He replied within an hour to let me know I was out of service area. He could have simply ignored the request or replied with one quick sentence, but instead he wrote a several paragraph reply with: ideas of what could be causing the problems, links to helpful resources, and detailed, step-by-step instructions on troubleshooting both projects. He also shared his cell phone number in case I had any questions or issues. Who does that?! Who takes the time to write a long message full of free advice to someone he knows will give him zero business. I am simply blown away by his kindness and intend to recommend him to my friends that live in his service area.

I sold my house to an FHA buyer and as expected, the inspector flagged a few things with the electrical system in our house. Of course, the buyer asked for the entire house to be rewired, but we were not willing to spend the $4000+ to do that, so we countered and told them we would address only the items the inspector actually flagged, which were: correct reverse polarity in 2 outlets; install dedicated line from panel to 2 kitchen counter outlets and properly ground the GFIs; install a dedicated line to the bathroom and install GFI; install a dedicated line to the laundry room and install a GFI; and install a ground wire from the panel to the water meter. Jim came out and gave us a very reasonable estimate to do all this work and once we made the decision to go with him, we scheduled the work to be completed a couple weeks later. Two gentlemen came out to do the work and they were very nice, polite, and respectful. I am always worried about being disrespected or taken advantage of as a woman in these situations, but they were both great. When their work was finished, I asked them if I could use their outlet tester to take pictures of the grounded outlets and the corrected outlets to send to my realtor - she would be sending these on to the buyer's agent to show that the work had been completed. During this last round, we discovered that one of the kitchen outlets did not have the same test result as the other, which led me to believe it might not be properly grounded. I won't pretend to understand electrical work or terminology, but he tried to explain it to me - why it was fine the way it was, and would pass inspection - but I told him it would just make me feel better if the tester lit up the same way on this second kitchen outlet as it did on the first. And he happily complied. Without an attitude or irritation or anything. So thank you so much for that! It only took him an extra 10-15 minutes and at that point I was 100% satisfied with the work! All said and done, this came out to less than $900, and I'm very pleased with the experience. Jim was great to work with and so were his two men!

Had a circuit go out. Tried to diagnose the problem on my own, with no luck. Called JDV - they were booked and gave me an appointent for the following week, then caled the next day to offer an earlier appointment. Shwed up when theu said they woud listened carefully to me, found the issue and fixed it quickly. I'm a DIYer, but next time I have an electrical problem I cant handle, I'll call JDV. Very satisfied.

Tony and his team were just amazing to work with. We did a major entire home re-wire. I reviewed 5 companies and got quotes from all. Read the reviews and went with iTech. So happy with all the work they did. Stay on budget, made adjustments I requested along the way. Identified potential issues and mediated problems. They completed the work on time, and I will keep them busy with future electric jobs that come up. They earned an A+ from me.

They grounded and updated the whole house in 2 days. Now we're safe thanks to FMJ. They are nice and reliable as well.

PG came out to restore power to our doorbell. They replaced the transformer quickly and without issue. They were right on time, professional, and did good work at a good price. Also good communication

The Yelp community came through again! I used the message a project Yelp function to EP Electric for an outdoor electrical outlet problem. EP Electric responded within the time they said they would, and then called when scheduled two days later for a consultation.
I gave another description of the problem, and Andi informed me of the initial cost to come out and advised me of the Yelp coupon which I had known about. Anything above that cost would be discussed before the work would be done.
I made an appointment to have EP Electric come out, and Andi and his assistant showed up as scheduled. His communication beforehand to come to my house also was very good.
Fortunately for me, my problem was easy for Andi to resolve and the breaker only needed replacing. The whole thing was done in less than 30 minutes right before a super-drenching downpour. Good thing since it was an outdoor plug problem!
I'd highly recommend EP Electric. Very good communication and quick service. The right way to do business.

I contacted Alba Electric for a service panel upgrade and some wiring and re-wiring for a kitchen remodel after a previous contractor did some questionable work. Ilir got right back to me and came for a look the next day and gave me an estimate shortly thereafter. They were on the job about a week later. No Fuss No Muss Very Professional! What a relief to find them.
I did do the repair work on the plaster myself so they were done quite fast in two days. I will definitely use them again for some further work coming up.

Chris does great work! We just had 2 ceiling fans replaced, new recessed lighting installed, and a giant TV mounted. I had gotten quotes from a few electricians and others said they could mount the TV but would have to run an extension cord to it. Chris was able to install a new outlet behind it so it looks seamless. All the work was done perfectly. So glad to have found such a friendly and reliable electrician!

I hardly ever post reviews but the service from Wade was so great that I am going to put aside the lazy part of me. Wade answered my inquiry within a hour and set up an appointment for the next day. My doorbell was not working and he was able to diagnose the issue on the spot, where I had multiple inspectors and contractors unable to figure it out before him. His prices are also very reasonable and to top it off, he's a great guy!

We had 3 outlets installed in our garage. Our electrician was friendly and explained everything that I needed done. The job was clean and the wires were clean leading up the the fuse box. The office staff have been so helpful from start to finish. We are a repeat customer. Always a job well done!

Adam is nothing short of outstanding. His prices, craftsmanship, work and availability is second to none. He will square you away. If you are a veteran like me I highly recommend you give him a call for any of your electrical needs. I am absolutely going to use Hummingbird for every electrical job that is required in my home.

I hired Fortech to install recessed lighting in my home. I would say I had an overall good / overall positive experience with some small opportunities for improvement.
Positives:
Tom was very responsive via text and email - he was one of the first electricians to respond and had one of the most competitive offers. He gave me specific Amazon links and directions about purchasing a switch which helped me feel confident in his skillset and also in the products I was purchasing. In addition, he helped me solve a mystery about some other lights in my house (turns out I just couldn't find the switch).
Room for improvement:
On the first day we arranged for the job, Tom was late to arrive and we had to reschedule because it passed the time when I could be home. However, he worked to make it right and showed up on time at the next arranged time. He also waived the switch fee to compensate me for the inconvenience, which I appreciated.
Other areas for improvement are that they could have cleaned up better after they left - there was still a lot of debris on the ground and I had to mop twice. And the switch was not completely flush with the wall (they did try to make it right and get it flush with the wall after I pointed it out but it's not perfect, I will have to have someone adjust it).
Would I recommend?
Yes, I would recommend Fortech. I was happy with their service and would hire them again for an electrical job at my primary home or rental properties.

Raul helped us renovate a commercial property and was very polite. The quote was fair and him and his team completed it in a timely manner. I am excited to work with them again in the future!

My husband and I bought a 120 year old house this fall and were looking for an electrician to remediate the knob and tube in a very tight two week period. Christian and his team were incredibly flexible and responsive and explained things super thoroughly to us as first time homeowners. Since the K&T removal, we have had them back for various projects around the house (fixing outdoor electric hookups, installing light fixtures, and doorbells) and the work is always done extremely well and fast! We will 100% be using them for all of our electrical needs in the future. I've recommended them to a couple of friends and cannot speak highly enough of this business!!

We had Ryan from RJD install our dishwasher and I couldn't be happier with the install. He seems to be a bit of a perfectionist and that is exactly what you want in a contractor.

Glenn was very responsive and timely. I called in the late afternoon and honestly didn't expect a phone call back that day. Low and behold he called back around 4:00 and offered to come by to fix my issue. He had to diagnose the problem by going through each outdoor outlet. Once he fixed the one issue, I asked him to investigate another problem within the house. Again, he was very thorough in his investigation and fixed the problem. I would definitely recommend him him. He's responsive, knowledgeable, thorough, and a friendly guy with very reasonable rates.
