I needed a Google Nest doorbell installed and was very impressed with the service provided - he showed up early, explained details about my house I had not previously known to me and provided excellent service. I will definitely hire him again for future electrical projects.

Great knowledge base - he didn’t even need to see the junction box I was describing to know how to fit the install. Efficient work - in and out in an hour - and the price was as estimated over the phone. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Jon was quick, efficient, experienced, and clean. I had some reservations going with Jon/Ion considering the low amount of reviews, but everything turned out great. No regrets, would hire again to do future electrical work. Friendly guy who was willing to discuss the work as it was going on.

I needed a few items repaired before a final walkthrough for the home sale. John came in and did the repairs and upgrades quickly and he was reasonably priced. He knows what he is doing and he was professional.

Got an appointment the next day following my call. Arrived on time. Explained to me exactly what was needed and performed the work very well.. He checked, double checked, and triple check his work before leaving. The environment was left as it was before he started. Price was probably about average for a general electrician. Would hire again.

Jon responded to my inquiry very quickly and scheduled a visit the next day. He arrived ahead of schedule and he and his partner got right to work on fixing/ replacing three broken recessed lights in the high ceilings of my condo. They did the work quickly and I'm very happy with the results! Their pricing was very reasonable. I would definitely hire them again!

John and Stephan did a great job! They performed the following tasks: changed an electric panel in condo unit, add few electric lines and changed few light fixtures. They are very DEPENDABLE contractors, who always arrived on time. I will use them again and highly recommend them to other customers.

Excellent, Ion came by Monday night for an estimate. He was able to do the job only a few days later (the first day I had off). Ion was extremely professional, he was able to relocate the new electrical outlets with minimal disruption to the drywall. He had the entire job completed by 2pm and cleaned up after himself.

Amazing! John or Jon (not sure of the spelling). Arrived early than 9, which was fine by me. He arrived around 8:40ish. Friendly personality and he let me watch him replace the outlet and ask question. He of coursed answered them. He also give me some insight on another job that I asked him about as well before he left. He also loves dogs and isn't scared of them..That's a plus! As I get so tired of people being scared of animals and not sure of the temperament. They just assumed. He asked and said "you can let them out, I don't mind." :) In conclusion, I chose Ion because the other company had more reviews. I think all companies should have opportunities. And He did just fine and I will recommend him or call again if I need too. Thanks John or Jon!!
Description of Work: Wall Switch stopped working in my bedroom and I thought the outlet wasn't working either.

Called the contractor on Monday, he made an appointment for Tuesday, early evening and arrived promptly. The job turned out to be bigger than I had described to him; however , and he had all the equipment necessary to perform the job in a very timely and complete manner. He took the time to explain to me what he was doing and what needed to be done and showed me what he was doing and how he was doing it. His prices were very fair and reasonable and I was so impressed with him that I arranged forhim to do a much larger job for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

FANTASTIC!!!!! We are experiencing record heat wave and my circuits were constantly tripping. I called ION ELECTRIC and the service person came the same day!!! He was straight forward and honest. He diagnosed the problem and got straight at the job. He was here for only a short time and no more circuit tripping. I can run my portable air conditioning units and run small appliances with no problems!!! I would recommend ION ELECTRIC to anyone who is looking for a smart, efficient, honest, knowledgeable and affordable electrician. Call ION ELECTRIC for all your electric needs.

John was great! He came out the same day I called and assessed our situation. John answered all the questions my husband and I had. He was very clear, thorough and professional. He was right on time and met all of our expectations for the electrical work done on our garage. He did a neat job (left no messes). We would definitely call John again if electrical needs arise.
