We were looking to replace outside wiring for our backyard lights. Stefan was very responsive via the Yelp website and over the phone. We had been in contact on a Tuesday, and he was able to come that following Saturday (he was available to come sooner, but Saturday worked better for my schedule). He was able to provide an estimate over the phone after I sent him a couple photos explaining what would need to be done. Very knowledgeable and thorough. We had decided on a 10AM start time, and he actually arrived a few minutes earlier! He arrived wearing a mask, which is much appreciated during this time. He was very communicative and professional the whole time. Our setup is very old and had never been serviced, therefore hadn't been working for a number of years. Stefan was able to install/update new wiring and lights and everything works perfectly! He also followed-up a few days later to make sure everything was working ok, which again is much appreciated! Would definitely recommend him and will call him for any future projects!

Darrell and crew did an excellent job for us. Darrell is very patient and thorough in explaining what he would suggest doing for our job and making sure everything worked properly once installed. The crew wore masks, consistently put on shoe covers and/or took shoes off when entering the home and they take the time to clean up after the work.

Hmmm I am a little baffled by the many 5 star reviews.  After calling about 8 electricians, T&D Electrical was the first who had availability within a reasonable amount of time.  Upon making my appointment they gave me a verbal quote said they would send an email confirmation.  Never did.  I called back to confirm my appointment and ask that they send the quote in writing via email, to which they said they would.  Never did.   Appointment day comes and they called me 2 hours prior to my appointment to say they were on their way.  OK, fine, better early than late I guess.  Two men show up, one of whom seems to be more of an apprentice and there to learn/hand over tools, etc.  They resolved the problem in exactly an hour.  The guy writes out the bill and it is about 3 times what I expected, so I ask him to break it down for me.   He then said it was for 1.5 hours of work and 2 men at $X per hour.   The fact that I was being charged for 2 men was ridiculous as one literally just stood there and handed over approximately 2 tools.  I know what a screwdriver looks like, I could have done that. Luckily I showed him that his arrival time, based on his phone call and the time of completion, made it only an hour of work, so he adjusted the time. But I still had to pay for 2 men, for what was really a one man job.  So if you do decide to choose them, ask how many men and get that in writing, otherwise be prepared to pay up.

Ted and his team we're very professional throughout our whole process. We were getting an electric fireplace installed and needed to move a conduit. With their recommendation to avoid breakers flipping we decided to put in a dedicated circuit. They were able to work around our schedule and finished the job in a day. They were clean and respectful to our space

I contacted them with some pictures for a quote on some minor work. I got a prompt reply telling me that no significant work was needed! Thus while I did not end up hiring them, I am extremely satisfied with their service. I definitely plan on getting quotes from them in the future!

Chris is very responsive, honest and good at what he does. He is the person to call for quick and easy fixes - he says he specializes in service calls (installing light fixtures, troubleshooting things around your house). Definitely give him a call, he'll take care of your project quickly and professionally.

I can't praise this company highly enough! We'd been struggling with a temperamental home-lighting system--in addition to one overloaded socket  from an installation carried out before we moved into the apartment. Thanks to Greenline Electric, perplexing lights are now beaming again, and funky wall fixtures have been normalized! Esteban carried out very complicated work with true expertise, great efficiency, and great friendliness. All very illuminating (!); great!

Ryan hung a ceiling fan that I was unable to hang safely and had given up -- though I'd successfully hung the exact model in another room in the house.  He's a creative problem solver, and we carried on an interesting conversation as he worked.  Final cost was LESS than he estimated.

I had Highlights come out to check out a switch that went bad, as well as replace some others.  They were extremely prompt, but unfortunately I had a last minute emergency and had to cancel right before they showed up.  They were extremely accommodating about the emergency and rescheduled.

For the actual appointment, things went just as smooth.  I had actually gotten an incorrect switch and they took the time to explain why it wouldn't work and what I should get to replace it.  The other installs and checks went smooth as well, and they were in and out in a flash.

I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Highlights again.  Don't confuse them with the magazine, though.  Different people.  :(

Rogelio did a good job on our building. Repaired some outlets, in the apartment, garage, and outside of the building. He shared photos of his progress. We talk over the phone to clarify details and got a quote on the spot for additional work that was necessary and was finished the same day after getting the parts needed.
He is also bilingual, what helps communicating easier for a larger population group.
All good overall.

Needed a new light fixture hung in the kitchen. The guys were courteous, professional, and thorough. We plan on using them again soon.

Needed a Tesla wall charger installed in our garage.  Jake showed up on time and offered a few different options with full explanation of each.

Once we agreed on scope and price he went to work.  You could tell he has installed a ton of these.   Job was completed in a timely manner and he left the area cleaner than when he started.  

Charger has been used daily for a few months now without issue.  Would recommend.

I emailed Blacklight on Sunday and received a clear description of hourly rates and expenses.  After agreeing, Johnny was scheduled to come on Monday afternoon. He was great, explained what additional materials were needed to install a light fixture on an exposed wood ceiling, and got that and another project done in a few hours. He was careful in his work and very neat, and friendly to our cats. Great service and transparent pricing at the end of the project.

I recently purchased a house and needed to do a few repairs to the electrical system to get it up to code. Ted from Kinetic came out to do an inspection and provide an initial estimate. He was very friendly, thorough and talked through several repair options to fit within my budget constraints. Specifically, I had to have an old electical panel removed, my meter moved, and the system correctly grounded and bonded to the water line.

The team that performed the work did everything exactly as described in the estimate, and it only took a few hours. I was extremely happy with the quality of the work and would absolutely use Kinetic again for future electrical work.

I had 3 people come out for discussions on our project and Tom came up with great recommendations for outdoor installation of lights and fixed some landscaping spotlights. He was reliable, helped pick out products and did a great job.  I'd definitely recommend him and will use him for future projects.

Ted changed out fixtures throughout our house, including a difficult chandelier in our dining room. He also fixed a hot outlet and looked at our garage electrical. He was on time, fairly priced, and did great work. We'll be using him again.

Pros: responsive, punctual, honest, respectful of my home, fair pricing
Cons: none found
Alex did a great job replacing a broken switch. He responded quickly to my initial request and was fast in communicating throughout the scheduling process. We are very happy with the quality of work.
We'll likely have to have most of our old wiring replaced and are looking forward to have Alex and his team back. Seems to be a newer company, and I'm glad we took a chance on them.

Kudos to Ricordo P. for dealing with a highly inappropriate neighbor of mine who was hawk-eyeing him, starting an argument and blasting his horn while he tried to work. He handled the inappropriateness of this man with extreme professionalism. He also was friendly to both me and my dog (who was initially scared of the suitcase wheels), efficient, worked quickly, and repaired the step. Thank you a million!
