Galaxy Electric & Solar

Power went out at my apartment after a short buzzing sound and half of my place lost power, including my heater. It was late on Sunday, so I was thinking to get someone first thing Monday morning.
I called couple of different electricians and couldn't get  anyone to come in till a week or two.
Then I called Galaxy Electric and Solar.
They were also super booked, but they found the time to come and check what was wrong at my place. They were able to fix it the very same day in a record time. I was absolutely blown away with their professionalism, willingness to help and ability to do a great job in a quick, effective and clean way. Needless to say, they were lifesavers, thank you Galaxy Electric!
I would absolutely  recommend their services and if needed will use in the future.
Exceptional service. 5

Raja has super fair prices and good service. He was really patient with us while we're trying to decide where to place new cans. Wore booties while working and cleaned up afterwards. Would definitely recommend.

We needed to install a portable air conditioner to our master bedroom in one of the windows, and it called for a grounded 3 prong electrical outlet. In addition, we needed to install two more outlets in our dinning room. Galaxy Electric came by highly recommended to us, so we decided to give them a call. They were heavily booked, but managed to give us an appointment in three days, which worked great. Pete (owner) and Rasha came by exactly on time and suggested several options how to add an additional outlet on the second floor, without extensive drilling through the walls. Pete was kind, patient and knowledgeable, and he explained step-by step what needed to be done. The quote was very reasonable, less than we had expected, so we gave it a go. On the scheduled day, Rasha came with Marcus, another friendly crew member and they carry out the work professionally. They used high quality materials, were considerate of our property, were well coordinated, and left the job site super clean. They did an amazing job. Will call Galaxy Electric for all our electrical work in the future - highly recommended!

I needed to run a sub panel to my detached garage for my growing woodworking workshop + beer brewing hobby.  We had just purchased our house a year earlier and it was in our original plans to expand the electrical footprint of the house.  The house had a 200amp main breaker panel that looked to be 20-30 years old.  The garage had a single 15amp circuit wired to the main breaker and tripped frequently when brewing or wood working.

I contacted Galaxy Electric through the Request a Quote feature on Yelp and sent my request to four other companies at the same time.  Galaxy responded first, within a couple hours.  One other contractor replied, so the quoting process was on!  

Peter, the owner of Galaxy stopped by first, and immediately made an impression of personable and caring for the quality of his work.  He kept saying he looks at jobs as if it was his own house as that helps him give the best service.  My original plan wasn't as good as his plan, which was awesome cause he's the expert and his ideas would lead to a way better result. He provided me a quote later that same day.  

The other contractor came over two days later and quoted me just shy THREE TIMES as much for the same job. He also came up with his own plan, but it was overly engineered, expensive, and didn't suit my needs.  He also tried to push financing on me even though I said I wasn't interested.  When people do that they are looking to make money from the financing referral, so I knew his interested was not in the best service but the highest possible invoice.  This was from a company that advertises on TV frequently.  We had just been through a multi-company quoting process for our HVAC replacement (a 25 year old heat pump!) and boy I'll tell you the types of sales people they send to jack up pricing is unbelievable.  Multi-quote for ALL your contracting projects, you'll learn the scumbags from the legit honest business folks.

I don't think Galaxy undercharges, their invoice wasn't cheap, but it was very fair.  This is more of a reflection of the other company that I came to feel were predatory and exploitive.

So, I hired Peter.  He sent his team over the next week (there was an opening in his schedule that I got the sense wasn't common, these are good contractors and I know they are in heavy demand).  They came over and made quick work of back breaking work installing the conduit under an existing deck, installing the sub-panel, bonding to my gas line, and upgraded and replaced my old 20+ year old main panel.  For one THIRD the price of the other company, and the quality was outstanding.  What was remarkable was watching the electricians taking extra time to avoid any shortcuts that could get them to the next job quicker.  They wanted quality, and they spent the extra time to achieve it.

One more thing... his crew was personable and friendly like no other.  My wife works from home, but when we hire contractors, I stay home just due to strangers being in the house.  Even though Galaxy was there for two and a half days, I left her alone in the house with them for the second and third day with ZERO worries.  Friendly, quick to answer stupid homeowner questions, zero complaining, no cussing, or stuff you find with other crews.  Total professionals, but personable and kind as well.

Now that I've found Galaxy, I will hire them for every electrical job I have from here on out, big or small.  Pleasure doing business!

My garbage disposer started leaking; so I called a plumber to take care of it. The fastest turnaround was going to be at least two weeks. Too long to deal with the wet mess under the sink! I decided to watch some how-to videos and change it out myself.
Except....
the disposer was hardwired and complicated beyond belief!
So, I called Galaxy Electric to add an outlet under the sink so I'd be able to change the disposer myself.
Not only did the owner Pete come out himself the next day to put in the outlet, he changed out the disposer for me...and he did it all for a fair price!
To say I am a fan of Pete's company is an understatement. Galaxy Electric and Solar is the best!

Since 2011, Pete (owner) and Galaxy Electric has provided dependable and expert electrical work for me at my home and residential rental property.  You will get timely responses and follow up.  I trust Pete to conduct thorough trouble shooting, to give me reasonable suggestions for next steps, and to carry out the work professionally.  Jody Clovis, Seattle (2020)

I put out the feelers on social media for a recommendation for an electrician and one of my friends had just used Galaxy for a fairly large project. He said he'd highly recommend them and gave me their contact info. I reached out to Pete, he asked me a few questions before giving me a quote (their quote was less than two other quotes I'd received) and setting me up with Zoran for an appointment the next day.
Zoran sent me a text to go over the job and the appointment. Later that same day he said he would be finished with another job earlier and would be in the area if I wanted him to come by that night. This would be a huge benefit for me since I wouldn't have to get to work late the next morning. Zoran arrived at my house, was friendly, efficient and did great work.
Galaxy's pricing is very reasonable, their work is stellar and both Pete and Zoran were friendly and helpful.
If you need an electrician this is the company to call.
I'm a huge fan!

We were very pleased with the professionalism and quality of the work done by Zoran. We will call them again for any future electrical needs. Scheduling was easy and I was fully informed about the pricing structure which we found reasonable.

Everyone I have dealt with at Galaxy Electric and Solar has been professional and nice. Prompt communication and great customer service.

I need to replace my old in-wall heater and went to them for help - really professional and efficient people! They emailed me everything I need to know beforehand and sent Zoran. Zoran is really nice and helpful - he knows exactly what he's doing. He made the hole bigger to fit the new heater with a couple of tools (he has almost everything) and installed the new heater properly and efficiently (there was an unexpected challenge, yet he immediately made the right decision and fixed it). He was also very careful about the dust when working, making sure no mess in my place. The price is reasonable. Would recommend!

Pete, the owner of Galaxy Electric & Solar, came to see if we needed to replace our leaking dishwasher. Within 5 minutes he fixed the problem and saved us the cost of a new dishwasher. Very honest business man and would recommend to anyone and everyone.

Zoran from Galaxy was responsive and did a great job. The work took a little more time than the estimation, but the trouble in one outlet was difficult to find. The electrical wiring in my old Woodway home was tough to figure out and he found it.i

This is the second time we have used Galaxy Electric and Solar and both times the service has been very thorough and they will do what ever is needed to help fix the problem.  Today, Zoran came back after leaving to problem solve with our plumber from southwest plumbing.   THANK YOU FOR THE EXCELLENT SERVICE.
