Luis is quite the knowledgeable electrician, but what I want to highlight in this review is his…read moreintegrity, which in my opinion is the most important aspect in working with someone. After some initial miscommunications about the job, things didn't quite turn out the way I hoped, but Luis, the company owner came out himself to make sure things were resolved. And even though the scope of the project increased, he insisted on completing the job at the original rate (although I'm not going to let him, because the scope had increased substantially, and that is clearly my own doing). When working with someone new, it's always a toss up on how things will go when unexpected difficulties arise, and I'm very pleased in how Luis does business. Six-stars! UPDATE: the job is done and we are awaiting inspection this week. The pictures speak for themselves. We are extremely satisfied with our Tesla Wall connector Gen 3 installation. Luis went up and over our garage with EMT to get to the nearby panel. He had to upgrade a breaker to a double pole 60A breaker and also had to update the breaker that goes to the subpanel in the main panel to 100A. Tesla had sent us a bad wall connector the first time around and advised us remotely that the electrical work done was perfect and that all power levels were as expected. Luis insisted on coming out himself anyhow to double check everything even though I assured him it was Teslas wall connector. Sure enough the wiring was perfect and when the new wall connector arrived I popped it on and everything worked like magic.

Excellent communication and initially a fair estimate…read more However, the following day the technician arrived an hour late to do the work. I was quoted $200 to install a Blink Wired Floodlight Camera and Blink Video Doorbell. Then, upon realizing there was no power to the light switch, the technician just left my old wires exposed after removing the old outdoor light fixture. Just moved in, so I wasn't sure what was going on with that switch. So I asked if he could fix it, while he was here. His response was "he had to call his boss to get an estimate and that it had to be done another day because it was too late." At this point the technician offered to install the Blink Video Doorbell for $100. I guess in his mind, it was half the work, so half the price... Again, I was given an estimate in person, the day before for installation of both. The Video Doorbell is maybe 1/8th of an inch off center. He did a decent enough job. For $100 to drill two holes, I would've liked it dead center. Then the next morning I received an email with an estimate for $525, to fix the power and install the floodlight.

Alfa power and has team of workers. Awesome my job was a very large job and you need a team of people. Never hire an electrician who does not have a team of people who can come in and get the job done within a reasonable time frame. Alpha power electric came in and did an amazing job. They passed the DC inspection and they did the work on schedule. They also corrected some issues that I had from my prior electrician. Some of my circuit breaker amperages did not equal the amperage on the electrical outlet. For example I had a 20 amp breaker and a 15 amp electrical outlet. They corrected these issues and I realize that I made a mistake with my prior electrician. But my prior electrician installed them without letting me know that they were inconsistent. Alpha power electric corrected these and other items and they did it in a very reasonable time. All in all I give them a five out of five stars for their honesty, dedication and friendly service. I trust him 100%. A lot of these electrical companies you call and they are horrible. Being able to trust your electrician is one of the most important things in terms of fixing your projects. Making sure that they show up on time, making sure they get the work done correctly, and making sure that they will follow through and complete the job. I trust this company. I'm going to recommend Alpha power electric to all my family and friends. Also the value for the service was very fair.

I found Harris Electrical, saw they were a local DC company with great reviews, and decided to reach out. I texted the numbers listed and learned they're brothers, Mike and Max Harris, carrying on the business their dad started. I texted them at 6 a.m. and got an immediate response. They asked for pictures of the breaker and the issue, diagnosed it quickly, and offered same-day service. Communication was incredibly easy and clear, all by text. Max arrived right on time, identified the short, and fixed it efficiently. They were professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and honestly just great to work with. I can't speak more highly of them. This is exactly the kind of trustworthy local business you want in DC. Highly recommend Harris Electrical.

INCOMPETENT, UNORGANIZED, DISHONEST OVERPRICED…read more I AM WARNING YOU TO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. I hired this company for a heavy up and they moved my existing location to my roof blocking the reinstallation of a gutter. This was after failing inspection on their initial installation causing three trips to my house and days without electricity. Incompetent. Trying to contact them is frustrating. The entire company runs through someone working from home who then has to contact someone else to get any answers. Unorganized. They told me Pepco told them to block my gutters which is just a blatant lie. If they told you to put it where the old one was (like they claim) that would not be blocking a gutter. They lied and told me they have a photo of the old one being on the roof. They literally left the old one up. Photo attached. Dishonest. I gave them three attempts to do the inital job correctly and now they lie and throw their hands up leaving me with an $1100 problem after spending over $4k. Overpriced. Incompetent. Unorganized. Dishonest. Overpriced. RUN TO ANOTHER COMPANY!

They also gave us alternatives that were more affordable to our budget. They had to work in a rather cramped space to reach our breaker and they were very positive about it. Overall, the entire experience was great! This business is one you can definitely trust to take care of your needs. Juan and Danny also made sure to tidy up anything they had to move (as it was in their ways o:) and were very polite and personable in their exchange. They were accommodating to our schedule too! We truly appreciated the help!! Thanks so much! c: Also a lovely note: they offered a year of warranty for just electric!

Would you shop at that store? No, of course not. Well this company does exactly that. They refuse to give you a cost estimate, no matter how basic the job or how detailed you describe the problem, until you pay them $70 to come out to your house. Dear Yelpers, please please do NOT normalize this greedy practice by giving this company or any company that does this your business. They'll say it's a standard industry practice. It is not. There are many honest services out there that offer free cost estimates and don't try to manipulate you to buy their products. They'll also say the fee is to compensate for the time that the technicians spend coming out, but that's just being dishonest. That $70 sure as hell ain't going to the worker. If they're being dishonest before you even hire them, think about what else they'd be dishonest about. Please stay away. I don't want to live in a world where I have to pay money to know how much something costs.
