Excellent experience with a bathroom renovation and washer/dryer hookup install. highly recommended!

Effective electric upgraded my home to 200 amp service and ran wire for my HVAC. Professional, prompt, neat service and the boss was on site . Would absolutely recommend. read more

Had a great experience with Dorian at Effective Electric! He installed a number of new light fixtures and did an amazing job of hanging a chandelier which required adjusting multiple lights individually to create a staggered organic look. Highly recommend! read more

We hired effective electric and we're not disappointed. They were very professional, prompt, and answered all our questions. Their work was exemplary. When they were done, everything was completed and cleaned up. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them. read more

Have used them before, a number of times. Professional, on time, quality job at reasonable pro price. Would use them again.

Effective is, without question, the best electrical contractor in this area. They have done work at my home three times doing everything from the substantial work of reinstalling my home's electrical service after a tree "removed" it to the minor task of replacing a damaged light switch iin the kitchen. Everyone from Butch and Barbara (who always knows how to find the right person at the right time) to Dorian and David who hung the ceiling lights and did repairs in half the time I expected conduct themselves efficiently and professionally. Effective Electric is a pleasure to work with! read more

We had outlets added and an electric car charger installed. They were punctual, efficient and extremely professional. They were respectful of social distancing and wore masks the entire time. They worked very quickly and were clean and neat. We were impressed with their efficiency and knowledge. Highly recommended!! read more

Had great service and were friendly and organized! Fixed the issue easily and also corrected another issue!

effect electric is the best. Butch couldnt be nicer. they are prompt and solved our problem immediately.

Tim was promt, even early, friendly and respectful (with a mask). He had several ideas for our old bathroom which needed an outlet. He was knowledgeable and came up with several possible solutions. He was determined to work until he found a good solution, which was a very good and reasonably priced solution, which was done in just over an hour. Would highly recommend this company. The office staff is responsive and helpful. We didn't have to wait weeks and weeks. read more

Great experience! Needed an electrician out the same day to fix a nonworking outlet, and Barbara who answered the phone was very helpful with scheduling, suggested basic troubleshooting over the phone in case she could save me a visit, and put in a note for the electrician to call me 10 minutes before they arrived as I had multiple other errands to complete that day. Sixto called 10 minutes prior to arrival right near the beginning of the expected window. He was very friendly and figured out a practical, temporary solution with me in 30 minutes, and came up with a plan for a more permanent solution if needed in the near future. So they haven't done any big jobs for us yet, but they helped me solve our short term problem transparently, efficiently, and cost-effectively. Highly recommend. read more

Butch, Barbara and Effective's team of great electricians deliver quality electrical advise and services, on time with no hidden surprises. Most electrician are unwilling to educate and empower you with information, but Effective electricians complete the installation and take the time to explain how the system performs. Quality, clean an fast- I would highly recommend Effective Electric. read more

This was one of the best experiences I have had in terms of flexibility, transparency, quality of work. I only had a range hood put in but I can honestly say this a company worth recommending. This is a company that is worth calling if you are in the Mahopac/Peekskill surrounding areas and don't want to be given a run around. Professionalism. My only gripe was a simple on the protective plastic wasn't removed before install. read more

They were prompt, efficient, professional, and worked within the time frame as discussed. We had the electrical panel upgraded to 200 amps and added a receptacle for an EV outside the driveway. Butch, Hunter, and Sixtwo (forgive the spelling) were knowledgeable, respectful, wore masks, and covered the flooring. Communication with Barbara was smooth and they quickly return phone calls. I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

Generator hookup and replaced wired smoke detectors. Price was fair and crew was very personable and knowledgable. Would definitely use Effective Electric again. read more

Fantastic and professional service all the way around. From the estimate to billing to scheduling. Everyone was super friendly and professional. The install (of a Tesla charger) took very little time, the installers left everything clean and neat - no fuss. I would use them again in a heartbeat. read more

I could not be happier with the work Effective Electric did for us. We had outdated office lighting fixtures replaced with nice recessed ones in our drop ceiling which we were in the process of replacing the tiles for. They also removed a fan and added two extra lights for a very lovely look for our home gym as well as moving some wiring and replacing a switch box. Needless to say we had quite a few things we wanted to change for our house and we made the best choice by going with Effective Electric. The team was so nice and they worked so fast. The results are stunning! I was concerned because the new drop tiles are lighter and were weren't sure if the weight of the lights would be too much but these guys are pros and they were able to do it and even cut our new tiles for us for the lights. Seriously amazing work and I will be a customer for life. read more

Butch and his team did some digital signage installations in several businesses for my company. They were prompt, thorough and efficient in their work. These were challenging installations and I was amazed with their knowledge and problem solving skills. I would highly recommend Effective Electric to anyone needing professional electrical services. You will be glad you did. read more

A rare 5 stars from me. Top Notch, all the way! You let folks into your home, and you hope to pay a fair price for solid work. But with Effective Electric I suggest you can NOT do any better for electric needs. I had four tasks, all of which were done to precision. Here's the details: 1) Superior scheduling with folks knowledgeable enough to give a reasonable quote, but who also ask for pics so their quote can be more "effective". 2) On time arrival, with friendly, yet professional staff. Drop cloths go down immediately as their booties go on, these guys treat your home better than you do! 3) I worried about a "time and materials" situation as the estimate is only that. What I found was these guys hustled, not is a slap dash manner, but instead, they value YOUR dollar as they proceed with the job. In fact, one issue was resolved with but three minutes of work.....kinda amazing as their knowledge pays off, for YOU. 4) CRAFTSMANSHIP. The guys surveyed the situation, thought about the, dare I say it, most "effective" solution and then implemented with skill. 5) Clean up? THERE IS NONE! Now I know tradesmen. Clip a wire and something falls, hey, part of the job, the homeowner can get it. NOT these guys. I heard one guy advising the other to get the dustpan as he had missed a spot. MISSED A SPOT????? These guys are perfectionists, but without the over kill in cost that can often produce. They even moved back the furniture. 6) Cost: OK OK, but did I pay through the nose for this level of perfection? Ahhhh, how about under 75% of the cost estimate from three other folks (with whom I was less impressed.) So, identify your needs, send pics and get a very fair estimate. And then relax as "effectively", you can just sit back and know you are in the best of hands. Kudos to the true craftsmen at Effective Electric! read more

Great, they did and charged what they estimated on the phone. Prompt and fast.

Effective electric installed a bypass in to my circuit box allowing me to hook up my generator to my whole house. Now I am ready for what every mother nature send my way. They also set me up with a whole house surge suppressor. In this age of electronics you can never be to safe. Great work great prices. Trustworthy and reliable read more

What a pleasure dealing with Effective Electric -- very professional and they provided solid work. I had an electric gate that I installed that needed troubleshooting -- a tricky job. The electricians figured out the issues quickly and got the work done to perfection. They also replaced a light fixture on the outside of my home that was 30-feet off the ground. No problem. Effective's rates are competitive (not cheap, but competitive), and they are real pros and easy to deal with. I wouldn't hesitate to call them again, or to recommend them to others. read more

Butch GIlbert and Electric are a professional and efficient comapny. They came out as soon as they were called and resolved the problem quickly. They are extremely clean and respectful of your home. There fees were fair and exactly as quoted prior to the work. I highly recommend them! read more

I had recessed lights installed and upgraded my whole electrical service and panel to 200 amps. Butch was very professional and straightforward with what they are going to do. They are very client friendly and willing to come back to assess and fix anything if there are any issues with the result of their work. Price was very reasonable for the service you get. read more

First I'd like to say that we've used Butch in the past and were completely satisfied with the work so we called him back for an estimate for a couple of small projects we were looking to do. Butch gave us a written estimate to do two projects in out townhouse, after discussing the projects we decided to only do one small project. My fiancé contacted Effective Electric & spoke with Barbara to set up an appointment and to also let her know that we would only be doing one of the projects. Barbara told us that since they were not doing the "whole" job the cost would be higher, which makes sense, she gave us a price & we made the appointment to have the work done. The technicians arrived within the timeframe discussed & were very friendly & very professional. I told the tech that I was going to have to leave, he said no problem, I'll leave the invoice on your table. When I arrived home I saw that the work was completed and the invoice was on the table, what I didn't expect was an invoice for nearly double the amount that Barbara had quoted us. I Immediately called Butch, he told me that Barbara didn't quote us that price & that he would speak with her & get back to me, well just about 2 weeks went by with no returned call from either Butch or Barbara. So the next day I over-nighted him a check for the amount that Barbara had quoted, I even added in the sales tax. To this day, neither of us have heard peep from him & he's cashed the check. It's very unfortunate that something as simple as a phone call can made a HUGE difference, well, I will never recommend Butch or Effective Electric. :-( read more

Effective Electric really is the best. I would not use any other electric company. They know their stuff and the do the job right. I have used them to install ceiling fans, a garage heater and a generator plug. They test everything and make sure you are happy before they leave. Great company!! read more

When we bought our house, it required quite a bit of updating to the electrical service. After receiving estimates from a few contractors, we selected Butch at Effective Electric to do the work. He was professional and knowledgeable and his price was reasonable. He and his staff respected us and our home while they were working here. They installed a new electrical service panel, ceiling lights with dimmer switches throughout our home, and installed an exterior generator outlet connected to a transfer switch. We were tremendously pleased with the service they provided. read more

excellent service... quality work, professional .. installed panel for generator and two service calls to find wiring problems.. no time wasted.. over the phone estimates leave you with no surprises.. .. I highly recommend Butch and his team.. read more

Your search is over because Effective Electric is the best. I can't say enough about how nice it was to call for service and get a person on the phone (Barbara) who is so nice and knowledgeable. She let me know everything I needed to know up front. They showed up on time and got the job done right. What a pleasure to deal with a professional company. read more

These guys were great. We used them twice- both times we got mike who was super nice, patient and helpful. We had to deal with a bunch of problems with our radiant heat and the floor company (absolute flooring,boo) was making us jump through a bunch of hoops in order to honor our warrantee. Mike did everything to help us through the process. The woman who we spoke with on the phone was super nice too! The second time we actually got a same day appointment. Highly recommended. read more
