I got Heastings Electric's number from my Realtor. So I wanted to make sure I was getting a good deal, and made sure to get a few other estimates. Theirs was competitive, and most importantly they were able to come the next day to do the work. I had several GFCI's installed (in front of the house and in the kitchen), as well as running permanent wiring for an electric garage door opener, and rectifying an improper electrical installation (by previous owner) of the washer/dryer. I also asked my wife to find out how much adding an outlet to the back deck would cost, as this wasn't on the original estimate (I hadn't noticed there wasn't an outlet out there until the day we moved in). Not only did they arrive on time, and do all the quoted work quickly and efficiently, but when my wife asked them about the extra outlet, they said that since it was our first home, and they were already running wires near that area (for the washer/dryer) they'd throw it in for free! I can't recommend them enough. As a new homeowner I consider finding a trustworthy contractor a rare thing. So I actually asked them for references for other contractors when the HVAC contractor didn't show up , and they were able to give me a great referral that showed up same-day and completed the work for half what the no-show contractor had quoted us. read more

We hired them to install a new 100 amp service and upgrade the electric from fuses to breakers on a house we are selling. The work was sub par and they never had an inspector come to inspect the job. Apparently they claimed that it was due to coronavirus. Months later after trying to get this resolved without success, I hired an inspector myself. The inspector said he didn't know of any inspections stopping for COVID. Also, the inspector made me correct a lot of the work that was done before putting a sticker on the panel. read more

Called because we needed a switch repaired in the basement. He arrived in 30 minutes and took care of the job, even though he is fully booked. Would definitely recommend. read more

I moved to Pittsburgh from Atlanta and have been having trouble finding contractors that are experienced, work hard, are honest, don't overcharge and actually show up when scheduled. I'm still battling to find some in other areas but one area I am very satisfied with is Heastings Electric. John Heastings is a true gem. He's very experienced, hard working, shows up on time and is the most affordable electrician I've ever hired. I have a habit of watching contractors closely and asking a lot of questions. Some have problems with that but not John. If asked, he will gladly explain what he is doing and will even give excellent advice and helpful suggestions, which is especially helpful since my house needs a lot of improvements. One suggestion he made was based on an observation that my house is on a hill with a lot of open land around it. He suggested a whole-house surge protector and I'm glad he did since I've found out the storms around here are pretty fierce. Another suggestion was when he heard I have bad allergies, he suggested a UV air purifier. My allergies are now much improved and I've been able to quit taking allergy meds. He has done a variety of work for me and had done a fantastic job. When I complained to him about an contractor I hired who did a disappointing job for me and then gave an expensive estimate for more work, John referred me to someone who came out THE NEXT DAY and did a great job for the new work plus corrected the bad contractors job and the whole thing was less than half the amount of the estimate from the other guy. On one job, I accidentally left out some money and valuable jewelry in the area where John was working and didn't have any worries about it going missing. It's refreshing to have someone so honest and trustworthy in my house, especially since I'm a woman. Speaking of which, his wife is the most lovely, warm person you could meet. I've hired him several times and have just scheduled a really big job for him to do for me. I'd give him 6 stars if I could. read more

John is awesome! We needed an electrician to fix something that a plumber did wrong at our house, on Memorial Day weekend no less. John took our problem and figured out a fix in mere minutes and for a very reasonable price. I plan on asking him back to help with a remodel in the basement soon. I'd recommend Heastings Electric to any homeowner in the north Pittsburgh/Cranberry area in a heartbeat. read more

Extremely reliable and knowledgeable husband & wife team - I finally found an electrician I can count on!

I obtained several quotes for an electrical project. Heastings Electric came in with the lowest bid. I was absolutely delighted with the level of service provided. John and Ruth worked as a team to complete the replacing of my electrical panel, changing the outlets, and installing two ground wires. They are easy to talk to and are willing to explain what needed to be done. I am so delighted that they were recommended to me by my Realtor. I will also pay it forward and recommend them to you! read more

I hired John Heastings to come out and do multiple jobs at my house in Gibsonia, PA. Awesome experience and I would recommend Heastings Electric to anyone that needs an electrician. John is very kind and down to earth. He walked inside and outside the home as I pointed out everything that needed fixed or what I wanted added to the house. He said he'd be back on Monday to do the work. He showed up on time and I was very pleased with the work and the price. In fact, it was slightly lower than what he quoted me at. Very honest guy and his crew were professional and worked non stop. I had everything from new LED flood lights installed (4 total); outlets moved; outlets replaced from 2 plug to 4 etc; lightbulbs changed (45' ceiling so I wasn't about to try) and a few other small items. This guys is awesome and the work was top notch. They finished everything in one day. I've already given his name and number out to half of my neighbors. Mike Robb Gibsonia, PA read more
