Electric CO Of Seattle

They are really great. Everytime someone comes out they're smart, know what they need to do, and then do it correctly and for a reasonable price.

I used the Electric Co. to replace a burned-out wall heater in my Seattle condo rental. Deja whom I communicated with was nothing but professional and wonderful throughout the process. She was able to give me an estimate even before the work was completed. She followed-thru on everything she said she would do. It's difficult to find honest, reliable and trustworthy contractors these days, but The Electric CO. is one of those companies. I highly recommend them for any electrical work!

I've used Electric Co. twice for re-wiring jobs, most recently for a job affecting my furnace during the winter. Brian got there ahead of schedule, completed the work promptly and with care, all for less than what the furnace repair service wanted for a consultation. Electric Co. will always be my first call for electrical work. Service: General repairs

We just completed a second round of electrical work with this company because we were so pleased with their professionalism, fair price and great attitude, there was no reason to go anywhere else. The actual electrical work was spot on and perfectly done, but unlike other firms I've encountered, they show up on time, communicate clearly any additional parts needed, clean up after themselves, and make certain that you're satisfied fully. Dan is a real gem and the office folks are no-hassle operators.

They charge a minimum of $250 to provide a quote based on an in person assessment. Which is okay, but they don't communicate that it's a minimum, and they will charge their hourly rate if your electrical situation and the time to write up the estimate exceeds the $250. Minus a star because they don't communicate these details, but they kindly adjusted my charge to account for the oversight.

I wanted to post this because I wouldn't have requested an estimate if I'd known that asking for a quote was a "time and materials" type of service with $250 being the average.

We used The Electric Company of Seattle for a full re-wire of our home and a panel upgrade in January 2021. Stellar group of folks who were incredibly communicative, did a tremendous job and left our home cleaner than we left it each day they were here. We had a couple of things since the install (a faulty CO detector, and a defective outlet) that they have come and replaced no problem. We will absolutely use The Electric Company of Seattle for all our electrician needs in the future.

I couldn't have hoped for a better experience. The scheduling was professional and prompt, the service was spot on and high quality. They arrive in a nice truck with lots of supplies, and do a quick estimate, then get right into it. I had a list of jobs saved up, which included installing new bathroom fixtures and new outlets. Everything was done just right and the area left clean and everything tested out to my satisfaction. No surprise in the bill and I felt it was a fair price.

We are incredibly grateful for Electric Co of Seattle! We had an electrical emergency two days before Christmas, and they came to the rescue. Such fantastic customer service, especially from Deja, who immediately put our request to the top and sent someone over, and Brian who came out to fix the issue. Brian is extremely professional and knowledgable.

Not only did he get to the root of the issue quickly, but he was very careful and meticulous. We learned a lot in the hour he was at our home, teaching us what likely was the cause of the issue. We trusted Brian completely and will be using Electric Co of Seattle go forward for all our electrical needs. Their team was responsive, great to work with and we would highly recommend them any day!

Electric Company came over to my condo to diagnose and repair a tripping breaker. I really appreciated Dan's good communication, and fairness and transparency around billing. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a professional electrician. Services: Electrical panel repair, Electrical panel replacement or upgrading

We renovated our kitchen ourselves recently and spent much time looking for an electrician to do the wiring aspects. We got several quotes from various companies but went with Electric Co of Seattle and are so pleased we did. They gave us a quote via email that was way more reasonable than other quotes, and overall communicated quickly and directly.

I had several other electricians come out to do quotes in person but they kept trying to sell us things we didn't need and did not give straight answers to many questions I had. When Brian from Electric Co of Seattle arrived on the day, he was prompt, courteous, and thoroughly talked through what we wanted before beginning the work. He was efficient and detail oriented when doing our new wiring, and was patient and enthusiastic in educating us about what he was doing and the generals of caring for the electric in our home.

As a newer homeowner, I am always looking for professionals who not only do great work- but are trustworthy, communicate clearly, and believe in educating the homeowner. Brian was all of those things- a wonderful human being and excellent electrician. I will definitely be calling Brian and Electric Co of Seattle for our future electrical needs! I highly recommend this company.

Was able to book and ask questions over email with ease and quick responsiveness. Dan came out and was very friendly, professional, and efficient. It only took him about half an hour to fix some electrical outlet issues but he knew what he was doing. I knew the costs up front which was helpful which was an hourly rate. The only thing I would ideally change would be in the industry (not just this company) of charging partial service hours for smaller jobs much like if you take your car in that the service rate is high but depends on the duration of the work. I understand the need for a minimal hour charge though. Would hire again if needed.

Dan from ECOS was able to diagnose and repair a high-difficulty outage in our dining room. He was professional, efficient, and knowledgeable. Thank You! Service: General repairs

I was so impressed with the service we got from the Electric Company of Seattle. They were able to give me a next day appointment, and Mike did an excellent job on our repair. He had to cut a hole in the wall to get at some of the wiring, but instead of leaving it open for us to patch later, he installed a bonus outlet! How thoughtful and convenient!

This was a fairly small job (2 hours of work) that we'd tried to have looked at several times before, but other companies weren't interested in taking it on. The Electric Company of Seattle responded quickly and courteously, and took our need seriously. Thank you so much.

Stephen Brandeis, the owner, helped us find the best solution for a sub-meter for our rental, and saved us over $200 compared to the previous company's estimate. Brian did a great job installing it and a motion sensor light. We were very impressed with The Electric Company's quick response and work ethic. Thank you!

Received a call from the company willing to riembourse part of the bill. Shows they will try to make thinks right if you have problems with the service

We went into contract in the sale of our Sandpoint home. The buyer's home inspector found the electrical panel had a recall and needed to be upgraded before closing. I called The Electric Company because they had a great review on yelp. I spoke to Deja and she knew the drill when it comes to the time constraints for home sales. They installed a 200 amp service and took care of all the correspondence and permits between them and Seattle City Light. They really took care of us and made it an easy process. The panel was installed a week before the home closing. I highly recommend the Electric Company of Seattle

Fast service, reasonable price, exactly what I needed when we had a problem.

Dan is awesome. He came out in October to do some work, and about a month afterwards, an issue came up, so he came out again to address it. Both times he came over was a great experience. He explained what was going on and how to fix it, in terms I could understand. He was conscientious of my budget and super friendly. Both times, we actually had great conversations while he was getting the paperwork in order. The second visit fell under their warranty, and no charge to me. Highly recommend!

Called them for installing a Tesla wall charger. They responded really quick and got the job done fast and properly. I am not familiar with electrician fee in this area but the service call-out fee was $240 plus master electrician was $120/hr just for your reference.

Awesome service! I had a last minute repair needed on a rental property on Friday afternoon before Labor Day. The Electric Company got someone on site who cheerfully got it fixed for a fair price. He explained very well what needed to be done and did it very efficiently. with a smile!

I'm very pleased to have a new electrician I can refer with confidence! This company was booked full today as I had an emergent thermostat/furnace wiring problem causing no heat on a snow day! My usual electrician was out of town, so I called this company because they were close by, and what a blessing, even though they had never worked with me before, the office manager was very caring on the phone, later connecting me with Stephen, who (even though he was not even getting paid for it!) helped us over the phone to assess our problem for free. I was blown away by their above and beyond service, just the type of high ethics you hope for in a family run business. I will be using them again!

Not only the boat experience was amazing and the boat was clean and spacious, but when our friend dropped her keys at the dock into the water, the crew did everything they could to get the keys. Finally, someone jumped in the water and got the keys for us. Thank you! Thank you! What a great experience!

ONERENT MAINTENANCE TEAM tried calling other electrical vendors and found "ELECTRICAL COMPANY of Seattle" who can repair the electrical problem in the property (SEATTLE) as soon as possible with a reasonable repair quote. Though they don't have any contract with us they chose to give us a go. The maintenance manager, Stephen, was very professional and cooperative in giving us options and we should move forward in fixing the issue. Also, their electrician was very thorough with the diagnoses and was able to correct the issue without delay.

Remarkable indeed! *Reasonable maintenance charges *Professional *Excellent communication *Forward-thinking mentality when it comes to maintenance management process in handling a request. Do yourself a favor and call him if you're having electrical issues. You won't be disappointed. Will keep using them as long as they'll have us as a customer!

Electric Company of Seattle was a wonderful choice to do the work on our aluminum wiring. We needed to have a new panel with new breakers installed. And we wanted every outlet, every switch, and every light fixture in our house inspected and repaired with the most up to date method of aluminum wiring repair. We chose The Electric Company of Seattle to do this work, and we were overwhelmed by their excellent response and quality of workmanship. Stephen got back to us with an estimate for the repairs within 24 hours of our request.

Once we accepted their estimate, they were able to schedule the repairs for the next week. The electricians arrived on time as expected, and they were ready to get right to work, with their tools and repair parts in hand. The lead electrician explained everything that would be going on that day, and answered all the questions I had. As they moved from room to room they cleaned up after themselves, including using a shop vac to clean up even the dust that happened.

The electricians of Electric Company of Seattle are very professional and experienced. They treated me with respect and also treated my house & property with respect. But most importantly, they treated each other with respect. You can see that they work very well as a team, so they can do the very best work that is possible. When the Washington State Electrical Inspector came she carefully inspected every aspect of their work.

After she had completed her inspection and report she said " this is an excellent example of just how this work is supposed to be done". I think that that is the greatest compliment that can be given to any electrician! My husband and I are certainly glad that we asked Electric Company of Seattle to work for us! Ken & Phyllis Guillory

Hired them to connect a hottub. They did great work. Showed up on time, did the right stuff and did it quick. Highly recommended.

This company is truly the best! If you want to save $$money$$ Call this guy! He literally saved us thousands of dollars, a fridge & freezer full of food on a 90° day, as well as our weekend! And here's why: We had a major power surge in our area friday evening, that damaged 100s of people's homes. We called around 50 different companies.

Most were closed, the ones that weren't were saying it would cost tons extra for after hours service and that it would take a few days to fix anyways for parts since it was the weekend and that they would have to replace the whole electric panel box because our was an old bad brand "Zinsco". So I gave our info to countless operators saying they would have their tech call us to let us know when they could come. Hours later still no call backs.

But as our freezer began to melt in a 90° evening and my cell phone with only 4% power, I found the Electric Company of Seattle and spoke to the owner Steven. He answered the phone, none of that pressing numbers game or listening to smooth jazz & ads. But a real human, who cared about me & my situation, and best of all saving me money & time!

He was kind and easy to understand, and threw in some much needed humor after this stressful situation. Anyways he fixed my issue over the phone, which no one else even offered to do! He gave me a few easy to follow instructions after asking some questions to diagnose my issue. Btw I'm a 30yr old house wife who has no clue about anything electrical. Calling Electric Company of Seattle cost me nothing and every other company quoted me 2k+! Steven will be the only one I will call in the future and refer all friends/family/neighbors to for electrical needs! Thanks again Steven, wish more companies had the honesty & care that you take the time to have!

Positive experience with this company from me. I needed help with the simple job of relocating a range receptacle to accommodate a new range. I called several other electricians and was told it would be over a month, some almost 2 months, till someone could help me out. But then Stephen at Electric Co. of Seattle had someone out in a couple weeks who arrived promptly and completed the job.

Super helpful because it was just in time for holiday guests and lots of kitchen use. The electrician was courteous, professional and got the job done in a timely fashion. We also had him take a look at some other much bigger electrical jobs we need to get done and I will plan to use them in the future.

Communication to set up a time for replacing some switches was exceedingly poor. After 2 weeks, we finally had a time set up for a weekday morning. My husband stayed home from work, but Stephen never showed up or called, or returned our calls. I can't speak to the quality of the work, but overall, his quoted hourly rates were high-average. We will not attempt to set up service with this company again.

I found this company I a middle of a frantic craze when I realized I had a partial power outage at my house. Being past business hours, I still called this company and was lucky enough to speak with Stephen Brandeis (like the school :) and he was so helpful. Though he couldn't get here until tomorrow. he said maybe he could help me over the phone.

And he did! I was so happy and relieved. He even offered me suggestions on how to salvage the fridge, bc that was my main concern. He went above and beyond and I will definitely be calling them again if I ever have any electrical needs.

I called ECOS again today as I have one light in my house that has questionable wiring (fire hazard) and asked if they could come back out to fix it for me. Steve not only told me that he would send Michael ( the guy who fixed my washer and dry) but he also said he would swing me a deal due to the fact that they had to make a second trip out this month. I'm really happy with this company.

My thermostat for my base board heaters suddenly stopped working just as it started getting cold. I pulled off the thermostat to find that many of the wires behind the wall had been burnt. I called Steve on a sunday around 3pm and told him the situation. He said that he's definitely seen this happen before and was able to fix it. He asked when I wanted him to come out and I told him ASAP.

He told me that he had a few stops before mine but could swing by around 5 pm. He was a bit late but communicated this to me beforehand so I wasn't sitting around wondering where he was. Once he showed up, he took one look and said that he was able to salvage the wiring. He cleaned it up and installed a new digital thermostat in about half an hour.

He even checked behind my two other existing thermostats to make sure that the wiring was okay. His rate ($160 + parts) wasn't terrible (given that it was a sunday and he came on 2 hours notice). I am very pleased with the work and am considering changing my two other thermostats to digital ones as well. If i do, I know who to call now. Thanks!

This is my first time to use an electrician. And my experience is horrible. The electrician Brian drove his truck into my bush in my front yard, and left a huge crack on my wall after finishing the job. And after I talking to the owner Steve, he did not admit that it is possible. He said that Brian drove a big truck that running into bush is normal. and he said that there is no possibilities that they will leave a one foot long crack on the wall.

Maybe this company deliver some good services some time. But my experience is horrible. At the end, I called the owner Steve and said that I will just fix the wall and let go of the crack, and I friendly reminded him of Brian driving into my bush in my front yard and MAY leave the crack on the wall. But he did not admit that there is any possibilities that it would happen. he kept focusing on that they had the business for 35 years, and treated customer right. Well, the bottom line is that even if they fix the problem but they created damages and would not admit. I don't think that's good customer services.
