Kurt and Samantha were great to work with.

Kurt arrived right on time, and installed my EVSE in jut over an hour.  He explained everything that he was going to do, verified that it matched with the Qmerit quote, and he left the work area spotless when he was done.

Samantha was super responsive, answered all of our questions, and even helped clear up a permit scheduling issue.

Highly recommend!

Dec 29th to Feb 8th (41 days)
In late December of 2022 I contacted Washington Generators to schedule an apt to have someone come onsite and provide an estimate to get a generator installed. I provided all of the information requested by Wa Generator by Dec 29th. In that information I mentioned I live in a manufactured home.  Then WA generator scheduled an apt for a person to come onsite and provide an estimate on Feb 8th 2023. On the morning of 2/8 2023 I was contacted by WA Generator saying they don't install generators for manufactured homes.  Also 2/8 was the earliest I could get an an onsite apt for the estimate.  Therefore the delay  is on them.
I lost 41 days of my time when WA generator should have known they can't help me when I returned their questionnaire on 12/29.  People were nice but they wasted 41 days of my time.

The electrician is nice. However, they did not tighten the gas pipe!! We have gas leakage for days which scared us!! The responsiveness is really really bad... with urgent thing such as gas leakage, it takes more than 1 day to reach out them and find a person to come and fix it. For god sake we haven't died yet...

Also, the gas inspector did not come on scheduled time - twice - which further delay the generator back to working state. Again, it takes more than 1 day (and multiple phone calls) to get the right person to come --- reschedule --- come ...

When I'm writing this review, the generator was installed a week ago but it's still not turned into work state yet. It's all raining and stormy last few days and lots of areas already power outage...

Washington generator please, take your customer's request seriously, especially such emergencies.

I was very pleased with everything they did, Michael was thorough, friendly, knowledgeable, and told me exactly what he was doing. He arrived on time and did a great job. Highly recommend it!

This is a follow up rating.  Previously I had given them a 1 star, I will not reiterate the problems, but Covid was raging, and these are not diesel generators, but more like gas given that they run on natural gas.
Any how, Cory and Washington generators replaced my previous generator, a 11 kw Honeywell with a 10 kw Generac.  the install went great and the new unit is quieter and works great.  We are glad to have back up power since our power goes out at least 3 times a year for hours to days.

From the start everything was flawless, Eric was on time, professional, and exceeded our expectations. Desk staff was professional, and no issues with scheduling. We had a 24 kw generator installed, the installation crew was on time, professional, very knowledgeable in their craft, respected our home & answered all questions and addressed any additional concerns. We would highly recommend Washington Electric.

We just installed generator, they have bad attitude and won't take shoes off when do in house inspection for faulty circuit. We bought warranty, right next day after installation we had faulty circuit in family room, it was always working before in family room when we use hair dryer. But after installation, the family room lights all went dark when we attempted use hair dryer, but worst yet, the panel of circuit breaker jumper didn't even jump or turn off. When we called Washington generator technician over, they insisted it has nothing to do with their installation. They said that has nothing to do with them and carry a bad attitude, a guy Kurt said that circuit meltdown is coincidental, he has ver bad attitude and yelled and threatened to charge us even we bought three years warranty and we just have them installed weeks ago. And the wall jet melted because of electricity volume over. But their installed panel didn't even have circuit breaker switch off for safety reason . Extremely bad service and irresponsible company and technician.

Good communication.  The installers were efficient, on time, tidy.  They were also open to suggestions and worked out solutions as needed.

The whole crew was great and especially the electrician, Mitch, who I had the most opportunity to know.  The crew did wear masks for COVID, although some merely had gators which are known to be ineffective.  Washington Electric also does business as Washington Generators.  They specialize in generator installation, and have a good relationship with at least Generac.  
A challenge were inspections for gas and electrical which were delayed in order to finish the project.  This is largely out of control by the contractor, however communication about this to the contractor via telephone was problematic about getting a follow-up gas inspection from the county.  Queries are frequently referred to an answering service and then no one responds to answer a question.  So, I learned as recommended, that text messages work best especially directly to the owner, Eric.  

The installation was performed neatly and it looks to be a quality job.  Only trouble was with two of the new Siemens arc-fault breakers in the new sub-panel that caused nuisance tripping.  Eric responded nicely by replacing them at no additional cost and I've learned this to be a common problem.
Overall, I've had a happy experience!

Always reliable for installation to service visits.  They make it easy and always makes me feel like I'm going to be ok if/when the next outage happens.  I always know that I can keep my family safe and warm knowing that our generator is installed and regularly serviced.

We had a minor electrical problem that I as a DIY'er was unable to resolve.  I contacted Washington Electric and they sent out a qualified, licensed electrician the next day.  I directed him to the problem & had the issue resolved within 30min and was in/out of our home within 45min.  The electrician was respectful of our concerns over the fake COVID 19 mayhem.  If we ever need an electrician again we will certainly use Washington Electric again.

Thanks Washington Electric

One of the worst companies in customer service. Did the install,  severall issues.

1. never did full walk through.
2.They mentioned they will come and close the trench after inspection in 2 days. We called countless times to get trench which was a safety hazard closed aftee 3 weeks.
3. They made a big mistake and not connecting one of the critical rooms which we found out due to power outage. We identified in 2 weeks and i asked in final handoff the person mentioned there is warranty. The person Michelle was asking additional service charge. We finally got it scheduled for today after escalating to her manager. No one showed today at 730am. When we called a person is saying they rescheduled since there was no payment. We prepaid entire amount of around  $11000 .
4. They didnt even get all paperwork organized for signatures and kept sending us docusign 4-5 times.  They were asking us to sign a document stating everything was complete when the job wad not complete and the manager Michelle said she can only schedule appointment for correcting the mistake they made only if we sign the document that everything was completed satisfactorily which was unethical

Unable to reach customer service multiple times. Quite a disorganized company and no sense of customer satisfaction  or even respect at that point.

We have wasted around 6-7 hours due to mistake this company made , not willing to take ownership of their mistake.   I never write negative reviews but at a $11,000 price point their work is completely unacceptable. I would suggest to avoid this company and save yourself a lot of headache.   I truly regret my decision in choosing this company.  If they can't stand by their work within 3 weeks of installation i think all their guarantee and warranty is worth nothing .  I am so glad that we had a power outage that helped us identify this issue.

This company is dishonest.  I payed them $210 for the first hour of a service call, to repair my generator. After a 5 minute check they said we needed a new circuit board on the garage panel.  I asked them if they would install the board when it came in. They said no, even though they were only there for ten minutes. I then asked for a service check on my generator since I had paid for an hour of service.  They refused.  I asked what was the part I needed to replace.  They said call the office.  The office said NO, we won't tell you what part you need, but we will replace it for another $1,018.00  After doing my own research, I ordered the part online for $350, and replaced it in five minutes.  These guys are dishonest, overcharge, and will not complete the service you request.

They advertise a service area that is WAY bigger than what they'll actually service.  While being very safely inside their advertised service area, they refused service for being outside of it.

Washington Electric services my generator each year. Technicians are are always on time and provide a summary of work they performed. The appointment is set up in advance and don't require me to be home which is very convenient.

Simply the best in the business!  It was an easy choice when deciding who to install my generator.  Washington Electric has the most 5 star reviews on the Generac website by far than any other certified installers in the entire state.   The technicians are highly trained and very professional.  They really went above and beyond in making sure the installation process is smooth, on-time and most importantly installed properly.

Washington Electric has done a number of projects for us. They are knowledgeable dependable and prompt. Excellent office staff make scheduling and billing easy. We sleep through the wind storms just fine now that our generator is standing by.

Washington Electric installed my standby Generac generator (running propane) in the spring of 2015. I also signed up for an annual maintenance with them. They did an excellent job in both the installation and annual services. No issue with the generator auto-starting up and running during quite a few power outages during past few years. The annual services were done thoroughly (even in pouring rain but under a canopy set up). As part of the services like oil change, spark plug and filter replacements, etc. the technician also spent time cleaning up the dirt,  moss and debris inside and outside of the generator. I received a report on what was done after each annual service in my email. Great company.... In fact I like them so much that I recommended them to my neighbor who also had them installed a Generac.

Purchased and had installed by Washington Electric a 16 KW standby generator for our new house.  Very professionally installed and - get this -  power actually went out three days after install.  Generator came on and took the load within 10 seconds and we were happy campers.  

The time between placing the order and installation was quite lengthy at over a month - but given it is winter (and a stormy one at that) I believe that their scheduling is probably the best that can be achieved for a company this size.  All work performed to standards, neat, tidy and professional.  Done when they said it would be done and for the price that Eric quoted.  Installer kept us informed throughout the day and he completed the task in 7.5 hours.  Good job, good service.

I wanted to use this company to replace our smoke and Carbon Monoxide detectors, as their web site indicates they do this work.  However when I called to schedule, I was told their priority is generator related work, and they only perform smoke and Carbon Monoxide detector work in their off season.  Unfortunately, this isn't how it represented on their web site and is very misleading.  Won't call them again!!!!!  But then, they probably don't care....

Just had a 22KW home generator installed today. Absolutely amazing service - professional, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Couldn't ask for anything more. On time, on budget, everything works as described. For our home in Texas with another installer, the installation for the same exact generator took 3 weeks. Washington Electric had it done in less than 2 days!  Couldn't recommend them more highly. I found them on Yelp and used them because of all the great reviews - and I am so glad I used them!

My generator would not start well, and I dropped a screw into the case, so I contacted Washington Electric.

Instead of coming ready to disassemble the generator and fix the issues, as I expected, the technician arrived, looked around, said yep we need to remove the screws, charged me $169.95 + tax.

It would save a lot of time and money, if he did that on the spot, but he was not ready to do that, so I said ok.

Next visit, the technician supposedly knows what to expect. He comes, does a little disassembly, removes one screw, fails to remove the other. Instead of doing the job on the spot, tells me he does not have all the necessary things and time to do that, and leaves. And charges me  $334.95  tax.

How was it my fault that he did not have the time and the tools, hard to say.
Now I am supposed to call again, have another visit, pay extra for the third trip.

So I am down $540, and not much closer to the solution.

What is more, I am not even sure now, that next time technician will have enough time and equipment to finish the job on the spot, and may not need a few more trips, charging me $169 for the first hours of course

The good news is that after the technician left I was able to remove the second screw. So only thing left now is to see why it does not start easily, and assemble it.

So I asked them to wave the extra fee for the next visit, and they would not do it.

Called another company, they came with enough time and tools to do the job, fixed it and left.

I purchased and had installed an 8KW standby generator through Costco.  From the time that Eric came to my home to provide an estimate until completion, the process was painless and professional.

On the day of installation (one of the coldest days of the year), the technicians arrived on time, early in fact, and explained the entire process to me.  Throughout the day, they communicated what they were doing, when the power and/or gas would be turned off and finished ahead of schedule.

I was instructed on how the generator worked and all of my questions were answered.  The technicians did a great job of cleaning up.

The inspector came several days later.  When he opened up the transfer box, even he was impressed.  It was very neat and orderly with all switches labeled.

If you go through Costco to purchase your generator, know that the time between the estimate and installation will be lengthy.  There is paperwork and a process that Washington Electric and Costco do behind the scenes (permits, purchase orders).  One of the benefits of the Costco purchase is Costco provides you with a Costco cash card for 10% of your purchase.  I am looking forward to this benefit!!

I had my generator installed on 8/24/2016. It was a pleasure working with Eric and his team. Kurt did our install and I was very impressed with his work. I was patient with me and answered all my questions. He provided us with plenty of warning as to when the electricity would go out. He was careful and ensured that the right circuits were included in the generator panel. Lastly, he was clean, neat and his work was tidy.
This past weekend, the electrical inspector came and he was very impressed with the quality of the work. He commented, I wish all electricians took this kind of pride in their work. I would definitely recommend Washington Electric.

Won't be hiring nor recommending these guys. They can't be bothered to give us an estimate on whole house generator costs & installation. They directed us to Angie's  list for us to find someone to help us. Speaks volumes for their ability to provide customer service. Hate to rely on them in an emergency. Thank goodness they showed their true colors now instead of if problems arose with the generator or work from them. I'd suspect they'd refer us to Angie's list for this too.

We are in the process of selling our home and just had a home inspection done.
We had to fix one thing which was an electrical issue. We wanted to get this fixed right away. It was Friday night about 7pm that we received the report and figured nobody would be open at this hour.  So we looked on yelp and found Washington Electric. They had good ratings  & feedback so we went to check out their website.

We decided to go with them because on their website, they have a book online instantly feature and figured we would try it out.  We got a confirmation that they will come Saturday morning at 8am.  But the next morning, we got an email saying that there was a glitch in the system and won't be able to make it. But if something comes up, he will let us know, but most likely he can come on Monday.

At around 1:00pm, we got a call from Eric and he said that he is available to come to our home in 30 minutes. AWESOME!

He arrived and quickly fixed the problem.  He is very nice and took the time to see us without taking a lunch break. =(  We felt bad so we gave him some lunch money after he completed the job.  He was happy.

We're very happy with their service!! Highly recommended!!  Thank you so much Eric!! ^^

Let me start by saying the work done was top notch. Josh is a professional. He showed up on time, did skillful work to address my electrical needs (dedicated circuit, dimmer switches, and adding a new light on a porch), and did well to clean up afterwards to remove all the dust and other debris left behind from the work.

However I must say I left the experience with a slightly bitter taste in my mouth when it come to cost and setting the right expectations.

I was quoted a certain price the morning before work began, but when the bill came it was slightly higher. And couple that with a lack of clarity/misleading advertising on the website what services coupons could be applied to, I was denied a discount I thought I was entitled to based on where the coupon was placed on the website (in the dedicated circuit section).

These misunderstandings could have been avoided by providing me a written estimate before the work began instead of leaving it to a verbal agreement where he said/she said comes into play and not placing vague coupons next to certain services of the site.

Eric (the owner) and Josh (my technician) met me part of the way to address my concerns about the price misunderstandings, but because they didn't make 100% right, I walk away only partially satisfied customer.

I wish I could give them less than 1 stars.  We had Washington Electric out after the appliance repair person told us there was nothing wrong with our dryer even tho it was shutting off the breaker.  Washington Electric came out and did diagnostics and said the electrical was fine, even tho the breaker kept tripping.  Based on this professional expertise, we purchased a new dryer.  Immediately after being installed, our brand new dryer tripped the breaker and shut off.  

While the technicians that came out were friendly, Eric, the owner was defensive and extremely rude.  I told Eric I wanted someone out immediately to fix the problem.  I also suggested that he contact Home Depot to get my 5 year old, perfectly good dryer, back, or reimburse us for the $850 dryer we didn't need.  Eric was incredibly unprofessional.  Eric told me industry standards dictated that if the problem was intermittent, then extensive diagnostics would be needed and he didn't know that was the problem.  They knew exactly what the problem was the first time they came out, I had to give them the reason for the visit- the dryer shuts off and trips the breaker.  Reset the breaker, dryer starts but then shuts off again.  I spoke to a contractor who's been in the business for over 40 years who outlined how the job should've been handled.  The breaker should've been replaced the first time out.  Period.  The last technician who came out even said he might reuse the breaker because it looked fine!  Are you kidding!!!

I would never use this company again and strongly recommend that no one else does either!  If changing a breaker is too difficult for them, probably best to go with a real professional.

I have nothing but praise for Washington Electric. I was referred to them through Tesla for the installation of a 240V/50A circuit. I sought several bids for the project, not only were they the least expensive, but the level of contact and communication were noticeable better than the competition. The team is awesome to work with. From the initial site review, follow-up on estimates, and of course the actual quality of the work were excellent. Kurt did an excellent job on-site, he was patient, detailed, and answered all of my (annoying) questions. I cannot recommend Washington Electric highly enough. I will definitely be reaching out to them for my future electrical needs.

We contacted Washington Electric through a Deal of the Day on Angie's List. Eric at Washington Electric was very responsive through Angie's List message system and other emails. We exchanged a rough description of the job, and he asked for photos, which we uploaded on Angie's List. The job was scheduled for one week later. Two electricians were here - they even called from the freeway saying that traffic was bad.

They assessed the job, and offered to start right away, saying they would finish in 6 hours. However, they finished in ahead of time. In addition to installing the new circuit panel and did extensive grounding. They placed two 8' grounding rods outside the garage wall.

The next day a City of Seattle electrical inspector was here, reviewed their work and quickly passed it with no reservations. We are very pleased with the results and would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family, or to use them again.

We paid $395 for the Angie's List deal, knowing our job would require more work and additional cost. Washington Electric gave us a $500 credit toward the overall price.

I read the response from the owner concerning the bad review I left.  I decided to give them another chance.  This time, I did receive a call back and an appointment was set.  The work was performed well and Eric was professional and knowledgeable.

Eric showed up on time for his estimate appointment. His van with his company logo on it was clean. I received the estimate to add an additional outlet in the guest bathroom and the master bathroom a few days later. I found him very easy to work with.

We scheduled the appointment. He came and did the work on time and within the estimate he had prepared. He came prepared with all the GFIs we had discussed. I noted that the holes he had to make for the new outlets were well inside the boundaries for the new switch plates or covers.

The outlets and covers he brought matched both the color and the style of the others in the bathrooms. I was afraid that a gap might show or the colors would not match. He vacuumed up all the debris that he created. If I hadn't heard the vacuum, I wouldn't have known he was there.

While up in the attic to run some wiring, he noted to me that I should get more insulation (and a possible tax credit). He said that it would be easy to rent a blower and loose fill insulation. That was an added bonus. How many service pros do I know who do that? Not many.

He did mention that I might want to considered getting a whole house surge protector if I had a large number of delicate electronic items.

I would use him again.

As a Real Estate agent I rely on contractors coming when they say and doing what they say. This was a three strikes your out situation. 1- After scheduling an appointment for a set time and being requested that they show the buyer how the system works they did not come at that time but came on their own schedule even after confirming the time twice. 2- We rescheduled for a time when a tech with the parts & ability to make repairs could be there and he came with no parts (simple fuse) 3- He told me he would run and get one that day for $110 just for me to shortly thereafter get an email saying it would be a week out and that the price would actually be $200. This cost my client money and risked us not closing on time. DO NOT CALL!

Do not use this company!!!  I hired them to repair a Generac generator. And I chose this company because of the Yelp reviews. I paid $250 for repairs and was told that my generator was up and running and weekly test runs would now work perfectly. 12 hours later, the test run started but my generator would not start. I tried starting it manually, and it would not run. When I contacted the company, they indicated they would not come back out for repairs because the technician indicated my generator was not installed properly. My generator had always run just fine until my husband put too much oil in it. Now they won't stand behind their work and to,d me I need to pay for another service call. Not only did they tell me this, but the customer service person did this through email - NOT A PHONE CALL!  If you use this company, be prepared to lose money!  Terrible customer service!

Eric came out the day after I called for an estimate.  He gave me an estimate and some suggestions to help keep costs down.  We set an appointment for a month later since I was going to be gone.  They arrived on time.  Kurt (KIRK) and Tyler.  They were very likable.  They checked to make sure we were on the same page, walked through the house with me to mark off sockets to be replaced, and took my input on where to route grounding wires since this was a complete update and changes needed to be made.

They didn't rush, and with the challenges my house presented spent about eight hours doing the change out.  They cleaned up, took payment, showed me what they had done, and left having done a great job.

I am so pleased with the work and expertise of Washington Electric! Wow... Eric and Tyler created the exact scenario that I had requested ... and then some! I discovered them from Angie's List and also their website. Very reputable and trusting! The whole experience with Eric and Tyler, with their professionalism and expertise was beyond my expectations. These guys rock!!!

After testing the fan (and determining the light socket had lit it's last bulb), installed a new fan and replaced the tombstone on the fluorescent light - all within an hour.  Very impressed with the speed, pricing, and efficiency of the tech.  Would recommend again.

Eric is fantastic!  I got some estimates on doing a manual transfer switch for my home so that I could run it on a generator when the power would go out.  I went with Washington Electric and have been pleased that I did!  He not only wired my home, with a nice plug for the gene, but Eric put in some GFI's and was kind enough to mark my electrical box so I knew clearly which switches controlled which items in my home.  He also put in an outside light for me.  When we had the ice storm last week (2012) I called in just to request that Eric walk me through the steps of turning on the generator, he called back and did just that.  He is reliable and a great electrician.

I can't say enough about how great this company is and have continually recommended them to friends and family.

Eric did a great job.  He emailed me to see what issues were needing to be addressed up front.  He called me to let me know he was running late.  When he arrived, he focused on the issues that needed to be fixed up front then walked through to inspect the rest of the house.  He explained what he was doing and why things needed to be fixed.  I also requested a few additional quotes which he will send me separately.  He was very pleasant, professional, knowledgeable, and efficient.  I would be happy to call him again.
Thanks!

I'm in the process of doing a remodel and needed some electrical work done before  I can proceed.  The woman who answered the phone was very friendly and Eric called me to schedule an appointment the same day.

I was happy to think I finally found a reliable, small local place like I was looking for.  Then I was stood up for the appointment.  No call or anything.

Found Washington Electric through Angie's list and contacted them to do an electrical walk through of our home.  We had just moved back into it after having rented it out for several years and there were some issues with a couple of the outlets.  Eric came out, tested all the outlets, light switches, and inspected the electrical box.  He talked me through some of the repairs that he suggested and offered a number of options of how I might approach some of them (for example, one of the outlets is dead and there are a variety of ways to approach fixing it, all of which have various costs and implications associated with them. We discussed options and I've hired him to come back out and make the repairs.

This is the second time I've worked with Washington Electric, and I will continue to use their services.  Eric knows his stuff and is very customer-centric, which is a great combination.

Out of the box thinkers. One of our other contractors bailed out on us to install 2 new chandeliers in our condo. We contacted Washington Electric (Eric Johnson) and he was at our condo in less than an hour. He came in and gave us his best quote which was reasonable. He had some very creative ideas on how to install a chandelier in a condo without tearing the sheet rock. By the end of his service, I had a 2 new chandeliers with a remote control for one of them to switch between a spotlight and a chandelier. Eric was very patient to install the remote control receiver in the chandelier. His service was clean, I had to vacuum a bit but overall great job. Love the chandeliers and we could have them installed before our dinner party the same night. I would recommend Washington Electric; specially Eric for his friendly and 'thinking out of the box' attitude.

Washington Electric came out to install electrical service to a small outbuilding we built. They wired the entire building and installed lighting fixtures inside and outside. They were very efficient, prompt and knowledgeable. We will definitely use them again and will recommend them to our friends and family.

I contacted Washington Electric for a quote on some electrical work in my condo. Eric was prompt and I found the rates to be very good. Frankly after reading their great reviews online, and checking they were good w/the Better Business Bureau, I knew I had who I wanted to work with. Today Eric did the work and I'm beyond thrilled. He wired my master bedroom to have an overhead light fixture and installed my antique fixture from the 1930's. He was again prompt, did great work, was friendly, professional and took care of business effectively and efficiently. When I need electrical work in the future, I will call Washington Electric and have confidence the work will be done at a fair price and done right, the first time. Thank you Eric and Washington Electric!!!!

We interviewed two companies and ended up hiring Washington Electric for our standby generator installation. From the beginning, we couldn't have been happier with their professionalism and knowledge. Excellent product delivered on time and done the right way, the first time. Exactly what a homeowner wants and needs. Will call them again if we need ANY electrical work done in our home and will recommend to anyone needing an electrician.

Eric and Kurt did a great job.  I needed power for 2 water features, 2 new can lights and a safety pasture light. They showed up on time and had all the right tools and materials.  The job involved a lot of hand trench digging, and crawling around in a crawl space.  They did their job quickly, perfectly, and were very pleasant. I would hire them again any time.

contacted eric via email and kurt was sent out to trouble shoot our power loss in 3 bedrooms. worked hard all day underneath the house and in the attic to finally find the problem. price was very fair for how hard he worked

called kurt back a couple months later we were so pleased with his work. this time we are having him put in a new circuit to split up bedrooms and install a new kitchen utility fan and line to it.

great communication. fair pricing. nice people. would recommend to anyone.

These guys were great. They came out and installed an overhead fan in our bedroom. They were very polite and professional. The only small issue is that there was a small discrepancy in communicating a change in the price from what was originally quoted. Overall a very positive experience and we would definitely use them again.

After being out of town for several days, I came home to find that the power had gone out in some areas of my house.  When I tried to reset the circuit breaker, I realized that there was water leaking from between the circuits. (There had been a huge rain storm while I was gone.)  I called Washington Electric and spoke with Eric.  He came to my home within the hour and repaired my problem.  He also caulked around the exterior electrical box to prevent future leaks. I HIGHLY recommend Washington Electric.  Eric was professional, efficient, courteous, and I feel that I was charged a very fair price.  I will definitely call Washington Electric for any future electrical needs.
