"Shannon gave us good suggestions as to what light fixtures to purchase and completed the job in the least disruptive way to our home. The finished product - adding ceiling lights in our den and installing a new kitchen light - were done quickly and efficiently. Will definitely use this company again the next time we have an electrical issue."

"Navin showed up to fix our plumbing issue the same day. He called within 5 minutes of my inquiry, was here in 45 min for a free estimate and our shower was fixed before 5pm! He also tightened the bathroom faucet, removed the hair from the drain without us asking and fixed the bathroom fan while he was here too! This guy is AMAZING! 10 stars if I could!"

"I have hired Waseem for a few projects - among them was the installation of a new microwave over our oven and another to fix a leaking sink. Both were urgent (around holidays) and he came over quickly, he was knowledgeable, fair priced and did excellent work. I have recommended him to others. I hope to hire him in the future, as well."

"Mike was awesome! He went above and beyond. He met me to pick out an exterior door, delivered it and installed. The whole frame needed repair and he fixed it beautifully. He was here when he said he would be and he is reasonably priced. I hired him for other work as well and, again, is doing a great job!!"

"Joe and Chris exceeded all of our expectations with the job. The job consisted of having to remove the left side door frame and molding from our bathroom door which they took great care in doing thus minimizing any destruction of the plaster walls. They expertly installed the new frame and rehung the door perfectly. They also repaired out front exterior door which was out of plumb and not closing properly. And also replaced our exterior basement door. They also replaced a damaged tongue and groove knotty pine board in our stairwell leading to our upstairs bedroom. Joe and Chris explained everything they had to do to complete the jobs and Joes estimate was reasonable in price. They are both gentlemen with a professional attitude, friendly and easy to talk to about the work and a variety of other topics not related to the job at hand. I highly recommend them."

"Wes installed a new circuit in our garage for use in the future for charging an electric vehicle. As we have a solar array and battery storage system with sufficient capacity we decided our next vehicle will be electric! Wes visited the site to check installation requirements and discuss the project with us. He was very responsive when we had questions and we were very satisfied with the finished product."

"Within minutes of posting on Homeadvisor, I was contacted by Peter Telford. He made himself available for a walk through of my tree/brush problem. Honest and straightforward were two of the qualities I noticed within minutes of meeting Peter. I explained my problem(s) and Peter gave me a quote for the the BIG project(which I realized I couldn't afford yet) and then broke the job down into chunks with specific amounts for each. Peter didn't try to sell me on the bigger job- he understood when I said I couldn't afford that much yet. All the trees that needed to come down were within hitting distance of my house , garage or fencing. Peter and his friendly crew took down the hard-to-reach trees carefully, , removed the wood and left me with a cleaned up space. They were in and out in one day. When I'm ready for more tree work- I will be contacting D&P Property Management."

"Bob called me as soon as I submitted my electrical project on HomeAdviser. After discussing my problem, we made arrangements for him to come to my home the next morning. Bob was very friendly, personable, helpful, efficient, and considerate. He could tell that I was distressed, so he calmly and carefully explained the situation (there was water in my breaker box!!) and immediately found where the water was leaking into my home. He replaced the individual breakers that had the most rust on them and temporarily taped up the outdoor conduit to prevent any more moisture from entering my breaker box. He noticed that my washing machine was not on it's own individual breaker and advised me, for safety reasons, that it should be on it's own individual breaker. Bob provided me with an estimate in terms of the cost to replace my breaker box, the outdoor conduit, and other electrical tasks that needed to be completed, which was very reasonable. We made arrangements for him to come to do the rest of the electrical work. However, before Bob was scheduled to come to my home, I called him with concerns because one of the breakers was still being tripped. He was very polite and to ease my fears, he stated that he would come to my home earlier than we had previously planned to do the work that didn't need the electricity turned off, then he would arrive the following day to complete the majority of the work. He was very flexible and worked around my schedule as well. When Bob and Mike arrived the following day, they went right to work and finished the job within a few hours. They even left my basement cleaner than it was before they arrived!! I consider myself a person of high standards and expect quality work and professionalism. Bob exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him and now consider him my exclusive 'go to' electrician."

"My project was fairly difficult since the transfer switch was far from the generator on the opposite end of the house. But my installer, Ivan, was up to the task, even though it took longer than usual. The final project turned out great, and I can hardly wait for the power to go out so I can experience having the lights stay on without having to go out to the garage and hook up my portable generator."

"They were profesional and curteous in addition to being reasonably priced. As an example, since some of the work had to be performed in both our dirty cellar and carpeted areas, they came with drop cloths to put on the carpeted areas to protect the carpetted areas. My sense is that their motto isn't just words to them: "I wouldn't do anything in your home that I wouldn't do in my own.""

"I hired Jeff to replace an exhaust fan in my upstairs bathroom. During our preliminary meeting, he provided me with the appropriate measurements to search for a replacement unit. The day the work was scheduled, he was on time.. overall I was very pleased with the results. Before leaving, I told him about a light fixture just outside the bathroom that wasnâ t working. He was able to identify the problem which turned out to be a defective switch. He had the part and was able to repair the light fixture for a small fee. He was very professional with the work he performed."

"We needed to replace our wall-hung TV and didn't know where to begin. Came across Symmetry A Inc. While doing an online search and our experience could not have been better. Setting up an appointment was quick and easy, and James (the owner) eliminated all of our trepidation with his easy going demeanor and technical / product knowledge. He listened to our concerns, answered all of our questions, and made suggestions that addressed our needs. The installation was timely and flawless. We're totally satisfied with our experience and highly recommend this company."

"We just bought a house in Niskayuna, NY during the sensitive time of CoVid 19. Long story short I have hired a pool company prior to contacting Aaron. The first company basically took my money and never followed through the job which was opening and maintaining a pool that was closed for over a year. They installed the ladder backwards and overcharged me for a filter and never cleaned or vacuumed it as they were supposed to. Weeks went by our pool stayed green and never cleared up. Aaron got a call from me and within an hour he showed up on my door step made an inspection of the pool before telling me what needed to be done in order to get it to a safe level to even swim in before the season is over. He used chemicals and literally stayed in touch with me over the course of 3 days. I sent him photos via text and he Communicated very well with me regarding next steps. My pool finally is open after 2 long months of me being jerked around by a well know company. Aaron is reliable and very honest. He charged a 1/3 of what the other company did. On the other hand I also found out he does other jobs too...like junk removal and is a handy man! Further more Aaron is very well connected to the contractor world and is HONEST! I even booked our pool closing and already looking at other jobs he can help me with in the house! Trust me when I tell you he has been terrific to work with and answers all questions and even answers his phone. Book him for all your home improvement needs ASAP! Tell him Jah referred you!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel itās time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, youāll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesAlbany Electricians are rated 4.8 out of 5 based on 1517 reviews of 1517 pros.
