J & G Electric Co Inc

This is a little bit of a different review. The other day, the disposal and a few outlets suddenly stopped working. I assumed that one of the circuit breakers had been tripped, and went to check, but none had been. I flipped them all anyways to be sure and checked a few other things, but nothing worked. So I grudgingly looked for an electrician, even though I was sure it was something simple. I went to Angie’s List and solicited 4 quotes, and ultimately set up an appointment for an electrician to come. Only Brandon from J & G messaged me to ask about the problem, and after I gave more details, he provided the solution. It turns out that GFCI outlets have their own circuits built in and are reset directly on the outlet itself (just push the reset button). I would have been very annoyed if I had to take off work, wait for the electrician and pay the service fee just for him to push the reset button. So, even though J & G didn’t work in my house, they provided great service (at no charge). If I ever do need real electrical work, I’ll definitely be calling them first. Thanks!

I called J&G electric today and left them a message. Joey promptly called me back within 30 minutes and was very helpful explaining my options. He took the time to walk me through a DIY option and also had next day availability for a service call. He provided me straight forward pricing over the phone, so I knew what to expect. In the end, the DIY route was successful for me and I did not need the service call, but I really appreciated Joey's advice. He seemed very knowledgeable, honest and customer-focused. I will not hesitate to call J&G for future electric projects.

Installed outdoor ceiling fan w/light. Everything went smooth.

Great service, very responsive! After running our AC for the first time this summer, we started to get spotty electric service -- the lights were flickering on and off, the refrigerator wasn't working, the oven wasn't working. We found J&G Electric on Angie's List and gave them a call. We spoke with Eric, who immediately answered our call (on a Sunday, no leaving a voice-mail and hoping for a call-back, no intermediary customer representative, we were able to speak directly with the electrician immediately!) who recommended that we call Pepco first. He explained that this sounded like an issue with the power lines outside of the house and that we wouldn't have to incur the emergency costs of having an electrician come -- we appreciated his honesty, as he could have easily come and charged us! Eric explained all of this very patiently and kindly. Unfortunately, it later turned out that it wasn't an issue for Pepco, so we called Eric back -- he showed up very early in the AM the next day. He was able to quickly diagnose and repair the issue within an hour (see attached picture), totally restoring our electricity and mercifully bringing AC and the internet back to us. Eric was very pleasant and kind (despite being up early in the morning to help us with an emergency electrical call), effective, patient, and considerate (he wore a mask and observed the appropriate precautions for Covid-19). We heartily recommend J&G -- we will surely hire them again for future electrical issues. Thank you!

They found sparking behind the panel that we didn't know about and fixed it.

Company responded quickly. Technician arrived on time and was very professional and competent. He resolved the problem quickly and explained the problem and repairs. Given the current virus situation he wore a mask and maintained social distancing.

Unprofessional: multiple calls were unanswered.

Fantastic experience. Price quoted in email proposal (which was very fair) is what I paid. Came out the very next day on time. Electrician was courteous and professional and work was done well. Everything was good about this.

The work went very well. I had a faulty receptacle that needed replacing to my dryer. The technician was knowledgeable and took the time to answer my questions. I would highly recommend. Peace of mind about electrical issues is priceless and he did a fantastic job!

Great! A lot more complicated than we thought but he did an excellent job!

The owner, Joey, returned my voice mail on a Sunday and via FaceTime was able to diagnose AND solve the issue over the phone and at no charge.

communicative before and during the appointment. professional.

Service was excellent and technician was very helpful. We had the ballast in an very old fluorescent bulb leak. They were friendly, respectful of our house and did great work. Will absolutely use again.

Joey did a fantastic job with the installation. He was courteous and professional and did the job quickly and at the agreed upon price. I will definitely call J & G Electric in the future.

J & G were extremely responsive and communicated extensively prior to signing the contract. They showed up on time, completed the work, and took the time to explain the process and work around when an issue arose.

Excellent service. Very professional and prompt.

Excellent. Darwin is great, friendly and professional. I highly recommend J&G Electric for any work in the home.

Eric provided an outstanding service as usual. Highly recommended! We will be doing business again no doubt.

Did not materialize because J&G Electric Co Inc. reneged on their offer to perform an Electrical Home Safety Inspection for $89.00 posted on Angie's List. Their excuse?: that we are not in their service area. Their add DID NOT mention anything about specific areas of service. I think J&G reneged on their offer because they did not see the potential for performing additional electrical work in my house, which I understand, however, they should be clear on their terms. It looks like they engaged in false advertising.

Outstanding! Great communication, super flexible, and I got much more than I thought I was paying for. J & G customer for life. We have an old row house that has some electrical craziness going on and J & G are exactly who I hoped I would find to help with a multistage project in a way we can afford. We’re so excited we found these guys, and highly recommend!!!

Eric was friendly and professional, and went above and beyond to resolve my issues. He even took the time and explained what the problem was and why it was happening. Eric is the man! I’d definitely call them back for future projects. I recommend them!

given the age of the outdoor landscape lighting, J&G did an excellent job of using what parts of the system could be used given the efficiency of LED. So no need to swap out a transformer or existing wiring. Floodlights, both timer and motion detection work well and as expected. All new fixtures were used for floodlights and landscape, deck, and front walkway lighting. Cost below includes cost of fixtures and labor. Major % of cost was for fixtures.

Excellent lights, excellent service

Eric was prompt, professional and provided several options at different cost points for addressing my problem. I was really pleased with the work and appreciated his honesty.

On Thanksgiving morning, we developed a circuit breaker problem involving kitchen appliances. I left a message with J&G, and Joey called me back in half an hour. On the phone, he identified the problem and patiently walked me through troubleshooting. Success in 5 minutes without a visit! He was so gracious and professional, and would not take compensation. He saved our thanksgiving! He is now on the top of our electrician list, and I’ve already recommended him to a friend.
