"Everything about Able Electrical Services service was superb! I was in a jam, and Able Electrical Services came to the rescue. Both of the mechanics that assisted were excellent. Russell Ridgway was the primary mechanic and he was amazing! His work is superior and he exceeded my expectations every step of the way. For example, I needed electrical outlets to connect install a wet bar. He measured the wet bar and installed the outlets exactly where they were needed and ensured sufficient power was added to accommodate a kegerator and mini-frigs. I highly recommend Able Electrical Services and hope I never need to use any other electrician."

"I was referred to Kolb Electric by my home warranty service. There were two issues, both in the bathroom: 1. The light fixture did not work. I had changed the bulb but still no light. Could not determine the issue on my own so I contacted an electrician. 2. One of the two plugs on the outlet did not work. The latter issue was relatively easy to resolve. The repair person happened to have a GFI receptacle and was able to replace. He noted that the cost was normally $30 + tax for the part but he did not charge me. The reset had broken on the other one. With the former issue, the technician was taking a very long time (more than 30 mins) to diagnose the problem. His conclusion was that i needed a new fixture entirely. The one I had was a T12 ballast fixture and he recommended a T8 ballast fixture. I asked him to explain the rationale as well as the difference between the two. He didn't provide a very thorough or clear explanation, except to repeatedly say that I needed a new fixture. In reality, what he was recommending was a new striplight--not a new fixture. [Note: I purchased a new T8 light strip from Amazon for a whopping $16.45.] When I asked if he was able to make this repair, he noted that he had to contact my home warranty service to get approval. I could not recall immediately if my home warranty covered parts, etc. I looked through my files for a copy of the policy while he spoke with the home warranty service via phone. He shared with me that he'd now been at my home for more than an hour, and there would be charges for subsequent time. [Note: He was on the phone with the home warranty company from 8:49 am - 9:20 am.] I asked him how he'd calculated that, since it had been less than an hour, and he said that he included the time it took him to find parking. Even now, nearly two years later as I write this, I still can't believe he actually said that. If every repair or service person charged their customers in DC for time they search for parking, no one would ever be able to afford a repair service. This is a major metropolitan city and you're arriving during the AM rush hour (arrived at 7:40 am). As he spoke (allegedly) to the warranty company, presumably his dispatcher/supervisor and me, he kept changing the cost to stay--from $246 to $305 to $185 (for the fixture alone) to $270. At this point, I decided to wrap up our interaction, and told him I'd be in touch if I needed him (which I never would). I gave him a check for $75--the cost per the warranty company for the visit. In the end, I never called him or Kolb back. It took 2 more electricians to diagnose the problem (see my POSITIVE review of A Action Home Services). In the end, it wasn't the fixture at all. A neutral connection had to be repaired. Once that was fixed, and a new bulb installed, ta-da: light! I'm being generous with my rating mostly because he did fix the plug.

"I needed an electrical outlet under my bath vanity in order for the plumber to install a point of use tankless water heater. Mark was quick to respond with a quote that was much less expensive than another electrician and didn't need the extra "fluff" that I would have been charged. Came on time and the work was done with precision (the plumber even admired the work!) :-)"

"I am a BIG fan of Benfield Electric. I have used them at my prior home for more than 14 years. In fact, they installed an outside generator at that house for us and maintained it through the years. I only wish they serviced the area we now live in because I have such trust in their workmanship. I highly recommend them!!!

"William, the owner, his son, as well as another other gentleman and lady on their crew were super courteous and professional from the moment they pulled up to our home! They answered all of our questions and did a superb installation! We have been struck by lightning twice in five weeks and suffered close $15,000 in damages. We simply cannot continue to change our tvs, a/v equipment and any other electrical component everytime we have a severe thunderstorm-which has been every afternoon for what seems like months. We spoke with other neighbors whove already installed lightning rods and none of them have had any other property damage. WB even sunk a third ground rod in because our Lanai screen enclosure had never been grounded. Awesome job, really nice people and hopefully this will do the trick. Bernard B"

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.
