Best Bathroom Light Fixture Repair in Seattle WA
Igor did a lot of work for us over a period of about a week. He was an excellent communicator, very reasonable in terms of price, and effectively handled all the issues we needed addressed. I strongly recommend him and Redline for your projects.

We hired Dependable Electric to remove knob and tube wiring, check the quality of the existing modern wiring, install several new outlets, and to fix any general electrical issues that they found in the process. Overall, Dependable Electric was fantastic to work with. Paul and his apprentice, John, were professional, courteous, and hardworking. Paul consulted us on several decisions that warranted our input and gave us reasonable options. We felt the communication in this regard was stellar. It's a great relief knowing we have safe wiring and we have complete confidence in the work that they did. We will continue to be customers if issues arise in the future and wholeheartedly recommend Dependable Electric for any sort of electrical work.

I recently had Matt at Mirsky Electric do some work for me, and have nothing but good things to say about the entire experience.
First of all, my wife and I just purchased an older (1940's) home and have been taking the DIY approach to a lot of the updates, and this project was no different. The house has the original Knob-n-Tube wire, which is ungrounded, and we wanted to update some existing outlets to new grounded circuits (for new appliances, electronics, etc), add some new outlets in a finished attic, and install a sub-panel to make replacing the ground floor lighting/receptacles much easier when we get around to it.
Seeing as I was taking a (for the most part) DIY approach to this project, I was simply looking for an electrician to validate my ideas about how/where to run all the wires/panel, and then come out and do some final hookups of the panel and new circuits (so I would survive to my next project)
I called/emailed around to several highly rated electricians on Yelp, and Matt was by far the first to respond to my inquiries. He actually swung by my place to take a look at my proposed work as soon as I had some available time, which was much sooner than I had expected he would be able to stop by. I was very upfront with him that I planned to do must of the grunt work myself and just have an electrician do the final connections. He gladly gave me some valuable feedback/validation about the work I was planning to do myself, which was greatly appreciated. Even though the billable hours for the project were low, he was more than willing to answer questions I had in several follow up calls leading up to the time he came out to help finish off my project.
Matt's estimates of hourly work were right in line with what he billed, and the work was clean and completely quickly. He completed all the work in just over 2 hours, but billed me for exactly 2 hours, which was a very pleasant surprise. I had forgotten that they offer a discount for mentioning their listing on Yelp, but he asked where I found them and kindly offered the discount without me even bringing it up.
All in all, we now have a new 60A sub-panel and 2 new 20A circuits in my office, a new dedicated 20A circuit in the kitchen for our brand new refrigerator, and a dedicated GFCI protected 20A circuit in the basement for our chest freezer. While he was here he also installed a main panel surge protector and swapped out a few old breakers for GFCI breakers to protect some of the ungrounded circuits in the house.
I pulled a permit on this project myself, since I was doing the majority of the work, and the inspector passed myself and Matt's work with flying colors. (special thanks to Matt here, because he mentioned a small issue that I should fix before the inspection, which the inspector immediately noticed and said without my last minute change he would have not passed the work) Even though I pulled the permit, Matt gladly offered to come back out and make any changes that the inspector wanted, and actually followed up with me twice to insure that everything passed inspection. Definitely top notch in customer service...
I have some future electrical projects planned (finishing a basement, rewiring some old circuits, etc) and will definitely contact Matt when I need an electrician again.
Thanks again Matt!

Elderly relative once again needed electrician on a Sunday night right before a holiday...and once again, we called Night and Day Electric, who was there at 8pm on a Sunday night to help. Brian was, once again, amazing! What a professional gem this business and its owner is! I am SO grateful to know that they are always there to help, not matter what, no matter when!

My garbage disposal is operated by a vacuum switch in the countertop. The switch is powered by an outlet under the sink, and next to the outlet in the same fixture is a rocker switch that also controls the disposal.
The other day the whole system stopped working. I checked the voltage at the receptacle: Zero. I tested for a GFCI tripping with no result. Other outlets and fixtures including the dishwasher were working just fine.
Baffled, I called Bayless for advice and anticipated a costly service call. First, he had me go to the breaker, which I cycled. No result. He then had me turn on the switch and the vacuum switch at the same time. BINGO!
So no need for a service call. Problem solved.

Cannot recommend Exact Electric, we feel like we've been scammed and overbilled.
I needed two GFCI outlets wired in our easy to access attic that already had powered boxes in the locations needed, we just wanted the outlets wired. We also wanted an exterior outlet added, and already had an energized line plumbed to the location and we provided our own exterior box.
It was an easy project that should have taken less than three hours on a bad day (verified by a second electrician after the work was performed). I was told it'd be fast and no trouble at all over the phone.
The day of our service appointment came, and the electrician arrived an hour late. No big deal, I'd planned to work from home that morning and wasn't in any particular hurry. But then we started running into trouble. The electrician was moving very slowly, with just shy of a dozen trips back and forth to his van. He didn't wire the outlets where I told him to, and so, the security camera power cables would not reach (he didn't put them where I'd already pre-measured, and didn't measure on his own) so he had to then re-mount and re-wire both outlets in the attic. This took over four hours. For two outlets with energized boxes right there. I came up to the attic to check on him several times and found him on his phone. Back and forth up the ladder multiple times... for two outlets (and I later noted he didn't use the GFCI outlets that I requested).
The exterior work also took far longer than it should have. All that was needed was for the box to be mounted to the house and connected. We provided the materials needed and an energized line was run in PVC directly to the location prior to the electricians arrival. That took an additional hour and a half.
All said and done, they charged us $764.46 total for what should have been less than 3 hours of work any way you looked at it. I immediately responded to the invoice via e-mail giving them a chance to make it right. They responded by cutting the project time from 6.5 hours to 3.5 hours (they didn't even argue), but when I looked, they'd changed the rate from $95 per hour to $150 per hour... leaving our now total at $602.80. When I asked that this be changed to the original rate given our trouble, I was told that is what it was going to be and that they'd forgot to add cost for materials (for the non-GFCI outlets I didn't ask for in the first place).
I know that contractors come at a premium right now in Seattle, but if you need help, you can do better. Exact Electric overbills and we feel like they tried to pull one over on us. Unfortunate, given I'd hired them for this small project prior to using them commercially.
We paid for our $602.80 outlets and consider it a lesson learned, we won't be back.

The technician was great. He did a very good job installing pendant lights. It ended up being a relatively difficult job because the ceiling box wasn't compatible, but he got it.
The owner asked me to pay the technician directly on the morning of install. There was some confusion between the owner and the technician as to the price of the service, and it also took a couple of messages to the owner to get a receipt. Overall, the service was as promised at the price promised, but it took a little bit of back and forth to get it sorted out.

over priced. And the technician, even tho hard working, he hooked my garbage disposal up to a 220 wire. Shame on him. Almost set my house a fire. He did come back and fix the issue tho. Then I had to send inspector the updated version of the upgraded panel box. Just make sure the guy gets some rest before they over use him again.

Contacted Custom Electrical Services to do several projects in my home, install new outlets outside and in the attic, install 2 new thermostats and trouble shoot a light switch. The response from the company was prompt and all information about the estimate and appointment was communicated in a clear and timely manner. Kyle arrived on a snowy morning in the time frame agreed upon. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, polite and explained his process as he worked the projects. Everything was completed to my complete satisfaction. I couldn't be happier. I will definitely contact them again for future electrical project.

Based on Yelp and Judy's book great reviews I gave them a try. Technician was actually early. He quickly diagnosed the issue and patiently answered my question. Fixed and now my lights work again. Service area is more limited but if you live in area, I recommend them.

Dylan and Austin were prompt, professional, and engaging... I appreciated their working with my schedule and seeing the job through (including minimal clean up).
Would absolutely recommend them, and will use them again.

We had an issue with our outlets at our home. We called Mauro Electric and Ricky came out and figured out what was happening with the circuit right away. He gave us the estimate on site and started same time. He had it fixed quickly and efficiently but also cleaned up after. I would absolutely recommend Mauro Electric for all of your electrical needs . They were the best to work with start to finish!
