Direct Electric

I've used Direct Electric three times in total on two different properties over the past few years and they were excellent every time. For the few people on here leaving negative reviews, just know that electricians in Hawaii have a coveted skill and they're in constant demand. You need to give them some flexibility. The company owner, Asher, did two of the jobs on my properties and his phone was ringing constantly about other projects he or his people were working on. He answered every call professionally while thoroughly completing the work at my place. I would recommend them.

Direct Electric Hawaii did a few smaller jobs such as changing outlets or extending power to new areas for me when I purchased my home. A few years later when a larger issue arose I knew exactly who to call. The pricing model kept things straight forward and the repairs were done quickly. DEH replaced my entire fuse box, rewired and labeled everything very quickly. Thanks again!

We had to install a new outlet and replace a flickering wall sconce light. Direct Electric's James came today and he did an excellent job. A bright guy and very nice as well. We are very happy with his work. This is our 3rd time using Direct Electric since 2019 and they always do great, reasonably-priced work. They are smooth to schedule with too (Ku'uipo is always sharp and efficient). Mahalo James, Ku'uipo, and Direct Electric!

Absolutely deceiving on the phone, couldn't book properly, failed to mention an email regarding an estimated cost and only told "A few hundred dollars" on the phone, and ended up being almost 3x more without the quote even being approved. Words mean things and they kept contradicting themselves in hourly rates vs rates depending on the job and the two people were probably right next to each other in the office. Asked to talk to the boss and she jokingly said "I'll send a text to him." For future customers, always trust but verify the work.

Give clear (in this case even more clear) and concise guidance.otherwise you'll be in the hole and talking to other electrician companies who are bewildered at the case and are more straightforward and on paper driven.

This electric company was awesome was fast efficient and had a great technician JAMES came out he was fast efficient neat and courteous he did the job and the price the cost was a flat rated I would definitely recommend this company and James! He's your techi

Jason and Angel was excellent, they showed up on time and their work was awesome. They were very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Direct Electric for any electric needs. Thanks Very much! Mahalo, Steve

They installed three GFCI receptacles (outlets) for three bidets I recently installed. One required that they tap into an outlet close by. This meant tearing out some drywall. I knew in advance that I needed to patch the drywall after the fact. They did well in preserving as much of the old drywall to make it easier to patch. The other two required minimal drywall removal.

They did well in installing the receptacles, clean and well positioned. For the most part post work in clean up was ok. This is the only reason for four and not five stars. There was still a little debris on the floor after they left the job. Both workers were very polite and did the work with very little disruptions.

As always I go through Yelp to find contractors to do simple tasks that I am on able to do because of work. As always I do my research first before I contact a contractor. I purchase a floodlight cam from ring.com for added security for my home. My previous electrician would have done it for $75 because you're just replacing a light fixture but she was off Island.

The owner Asher stated it will cost $275, for just changing a light fixture with my experience dealing with electrician in the pass I thought this was outrageous costs for a 15 minute job. Good thing yelp give you the options more than one company, I found a honest electrician and the job was done less than 10 minutes for $80.

Good services from these guys. Our homevhad major problems. They came out and installed new site quick and for a fair price. I would recommend them any day of the week

We had requested a quote for installation of a Tesla wall charger We called on Monday DEH and spoke with a rep who took our information and promised a return call the next day. After waiting a few extra days, we called back on Thursday and spoke to Asher. He apologized for the miscommunication and said he would meet us at our house. Interestingly enough, he did, in fact, arrive as promised.

We had a good, thorough conversation about the project, and I was more than ready to hire Asher and his team. However, in a weird twist of events, he promised a quote within "a few days" and then we never heard from Asher again. What is especially disconcerting is the fact that I explained to Asher that it was difficult to find electricians to do Tesla work.

I explained that, even the "recommended" Hawaii companies on Tesla's website either did not return calls or are no longer in business. I further explained to Asher that, if the project turned out satisfactorily, I would be more than happy to personally notify Tesla of a qualified electrical company. and recommend DEH as a "Tesla-certified" contractor. Inexplicably, after promising the quote, we never heard from Asher again.

Had 2 ceiling fans installed in rooms with no hookups in ceiling. Angel came, was extremely courteous and friendly, he did a great job, fans are working great! Thanks Angel & Direct Electric!

Still five stars from me. I used their services again earlier this month because I needed a ceiling fan installed over my dining table (and the existing light fixture removed). I also needed LED lights put in place what we had in my bedroom and another bedroom in the house. Angel and his co-worker (sorry, I can't remember his name!) were very fast and they completed the work I needed in about an hour. They are also very friendly and I love my new fixtures. Thanks so much!

We live on the north shore at Sunset Beach and used Direct Electric to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet at our house for a Tesla. Asher came and did the initial estimate. The crew that came on installation day was fantastic. They worked through a few minor challenges like crawling under a 50 year old house without any concern. While they were working I remembered I wanted to add an outlet inside our kitchen.

They called Asher and worked out the added cost which was nominal and got it done. I was so happy with them I hired them to add another Tesla charger at my office in Waipio. I would highly recommend them and have done so to several of my clients.

Yelp review We found Direct Electric via Yelp, and they responded very quickly to setup a initial inspection, provide an estimate and sent an electrician within a week or so to help us upgrade the electrical panel, install ceiling fans and recessed lights with switches amongst a few other things. Angel, our electrician, was very friendly. He would explain things to us and answered all of our questions we had and he even came back and stayed late to make sure the job was finished and up to excellent standards. We could not be more impressed by the workmanship Angel and the Direct Electric Team have done for our home.

Direct Electric was very prompt & accommodating in scheduling an electrician to replace our light fixtures. Angel, the electrician, did a great job! I would recommend their service.

Direct Electric was really easy to work with. We messaged them via Yelp, received a general quote, had a follow-up call to iron out the details, and a few days later, they sent over Angel to install 3 ceiling fans and some switches. Angel did a great job, left no mess, and was efficient. Would definitely recommend.

Angel and Tiger did an amazing job today installing a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my condo's basement parking so I can charge my car. They took their time and did things right. Very carefully measuring things and trying to be as accurate/straight as possible when mounting junction box's, cut off switches, the outlet, and 100ft of conduits.

I work with Direct Electric almost daily for work and they make my job easier when it comes to electrical work. I work with Mark and Becky regularly who are always available to take my call and answer any questions I have. Mark is great about getting back to me with answers about jobs if he doesn't have the answer and working to get my jobs scheduled. Becky makes my billing an absolute dream.

She always references our work order number and she responds to the original email inquiry with the invoice and pictures from the job. Direct Electric is definitely one of the easiest vendors to work with from start to finish. I've sent them out to do troubleshooting for lights that weren't working, buzzing sounds from panels, install charging stations for electric vehicles, install recessed outlets, and on and on - & I always get great feedback on the work they perform too.

What a lucky find! My neighbor used this company to rewire his house last week and because we needed the same thing done to our plantation home, we thought we'd get a quote and go from there. Long story short, this company is great! The first word that comes to mind is professionalism. Our house had extremely old (1938) knob and tube wiring which is obsolete and relatively dangerous. It's not an easy job but they crushed it.

I mainly dealt with Jonathan, Jimmy and Robert. They did the entire job in 5 days. They were extremely accommodating as they would leave power on in a particular room so that my wife and newborn daughter would be comfortable. We were definitely apprehensive about getting the house rewired while we were living in it, but these guys made it no problem. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Back in December they came to my house to fix at bad outlet. The technician spent about 3 hours and still didn't get it right. A minute after she left the outlet failed. We were able to catch are in the parking lot and she came back. While she was repairing the outlet she apparently knocked loose some piping under the Kitchen sink. The next morning we discovered it by stepping into the leaking water on the floor.

Just 2 days ago the same outlet failed again. When we contacted Direct Electric they wanted to charge us $200 to come out to take a look. No taking responsibility for not repairing it right the 1st time. I am very disappointed I will not be using them again. Shortly after posting my review Direct Electric came to the house and made everything right at no cost. I guess there was a communication break down between my renters (family) and Direct Electric. I am happy to report all is well now. Yes, I will use them again.

This was my first time seeking an electrician to install new light fixtures for my bedroom, hallway, and my kid's room. From start to finish the process was smooth, fast, and efficient. I am very pleased to have worked with such a responsive and professional team at Direct Electric! I will be recommending if any family or friends need professional electrician services.

These guys are super professional, knowledgeable, and awesome. Thanks so much Direct Electric! Every single one of you are so rad =
