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.

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!

After conferring with our phone operators, we could not verify that this customer has called in. Due to the high traffic of calls and especially spam calls, we require in our voicemail message to please leave your information and we will be able to return the call promptly. After searching our previous messages and call logs we have not received information from this customer and thus we are not able to know which number to respond to or if a return call is needed. This becomes especially important for after-hours calls. We are very proud of our reputation for quality and integrity as can be seen from our previous reviews as well, but unfortunately this project cannot continue if we are not able to receive the proper information.

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.

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.

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.
