"

Jim was very professional, friendly and informative. He knew exactly what to do and did all the jobs quickly without disturbance.

We initially hired Mr. Electric do the 200 amp panel upgrade but quickly realized what a great electrician we had so we asked for a quote to do other jobs in our home. The quote was very fast and Tom worked with us to get it in our hands and worked around our schedules to get the work completed. We are really pleased at all the work and will gladly recommend Mr. Electric to all. We will always use this company for all things electrical!

"Very polite and kind, punctual and great at coming up with alternative solutions for a problem that is cost effective and solves the issue. I will be hiring them again in the future for all my electrical needs. Thank you for picking up a project that another never finished and doing it right and the same day."

"Mike was professional, courteous, knowledgeable throughout the entire process. He was especially patient as he described how I had incorrectly attempted to wire these two switches. He completed the job very quickly. I give him my highest recommendation and will hire him for another electrical project shortly."

"The team from SOS Electrical installed nine ultra-slim ceiling lights and a chandelier in our home in Mt Gretna. Chris & Evan did a fantastic job. They were timely, responsive and professional from first contact, to the initial visit for the quote, through the whole installation process. They took care to minimize drilling in the ceiling and helped plan out the light spacing. The lights in our home look fantastic! Moreover, they are reasonably priced - the final cost actually came in slightly less than their original estimate and that was great too. I would definitely use them again for future electrical projects. Highly recommend!"

FAQs for electrical service projects in Akron, PA

Always start by confirming the pro’s license number, insurance coverage, and experience level. Visit the electrician’s website, scan recent customer reviews, and verify credentials with your local labor department. Request proof of liability insurance and at least two references that you can contact. These quick checks take only a few minutes but go a long way toward ensuring safe, code-compliant work and protecting your home in the event of an issue.

Grouping several electrical jobs into one appointment means you pay a single service-call fee and one set of travel expenses. Instead of asking a pro to return three separate times for outlets, switches, and fixtures, have everything tackled in one visit. The electrician stays productive, and you avoid extra trip charges, often shaving a sizable chunk off the final bill without compromising quality.

DIY electrical work can be dangerous and, in many areas, illegal without a license. One miswired connection risks shocks, fires, or expensive damage. Licensed electricians carry the right tools, follow local code, and know how to shut down power safely before they start. Hiring a pro may cost more upfront, but it protects your home, family, and insurance coverage in the long run.
