Ricardo showed up on time, listen to the issues we were having, assessed the areas where the receptacles+ unusable GFCI were located, and replaced what needed fixing. Extremely professional, explained his assessment. Excellent customer service. Cost was reasonable for the area. I would definitely refer Alba Electric, specifically Ricardo for your electrical needs.

Response from Company:

Thank you so much for great review and glad you chose our services!

Ricardo is smart, professional and is focused on doing his job well. His quote was fair but he also went out of his way to ensure timely completion. For example, I said I’d cut across my asphalt driveway and trench 24” deep there and shallower outside of the driveway. When it became apparent that my rental trencher underperformed, Ricardo voluntarily, pleasantly stepped in to help dug the trenches. He put in a 12- hour day and came early the next day to make the final connections before the County inspector arrived. Ricardo has earned my trust. I’ve since asked him for options on fixing a few nagging electrical problems. I think you’ll be pleased with his services.

Response from Company:

Hi Joe, thanks so much your review

Ricardo completed two projects for me. The first was the wiring and electrical panel upgrades for my solar panels. The second was the installation of two 240V outlets. Both times, he was on-schedule, answered all of my questions, and cleaned up after he finished. He was always courteous. The finished work is very professional. And, pricing was very reasonable.

So, we needed our electrical main panel changed and moved from its original location to a new location for an ongoing remodeling project. We hired ALBA electric for the job through a friend's recommendation, they guided us through out the installation with detail since I had concerns that it wouldn't be possible and where the box was going to be placed now. They also had us set up with a small generator for our fridge and electronics while the process went on, which was very helpful because I work from home. Overall they new what they were doing and offered great guidance, and their work ended up looking clean.

Response from Company:

Hi Mr. Frederick, thank you so much for your review, we were happy to service your system. Let us know if you need us again

Hiring Alba Electric for my Panel Upgrade was the best decision I?ve ever made for my home renovation projects! I have an older row home in the Baltimore area and needed to upgrade the wiring system to make space in my panel for future additions to my electrical service. I hired Alba Electric to take on the task of safely upsizing my main panel and I was more than impressed! Not only did Ricardo, the master electrician on call complete the task for a very fair price compared to competitors in my area, he did it quickly (in under five hours) and very professionally and helped me to understand the process and what to expect. During the few hours without power Ricardo had a small generator with a noise cancellation wall to keep my refrigerator and internet running so I could continue to work from home while he completed the upgrade. I received a 200 amp breaker panel change with new service line, new grounding protection and whole house protection and I?m more than satisfied!

We were looking for an electrician for a fan/lighting project in our bedroom and a friend got me in contact with Ricardo. He was quick to respond and got us set up pretty quick. He was also very helpful choosing the layout of the new equipment and it ended up looking nice and simetrical. The lightning he chose is not too bright and was place carefully so that it wouldn't reflect on the TV screen. The wall cuts were minimal and he had someone behind to patch them up. Fully recommend his services!

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
