It could not have gone better. A+ in every detail. In fact, he recommended that I get a new fixture, rather than repair the old one, and did it at the the original price quoted for repair, including going out and getting a very nice fixture!

Working with Eric from J&G electric was a great experience. The whole process was smooth and efficient from when I first reached out to schedule an estimate to completion of the work. While he was giving the estimate, Eric made other suggestions that I had not thought of. As a new homeowner, I appreciated his insights and did not feel like he was trying to upsell me. He printed an itemized estimate as part of the visit so that I could pick and choose which items we wanted him to do. We had gotten three quotes for electrical work and price-wise, J&G electric came in the middle, but we went with them because of their reviews and our positive experiences interacting with Eric. The work was completed in a timely manner and Eric said everything comes with a 3-year warranty. We would hire this company again.

Very well - were helpful in getting something scheduled quickly and the execution of the work was extremely smooth. When I called to schedule they were able to provide the pricing so I knew exactly what the final bill would be with no surprises - difficult to find such transparency from the outset. Would recommend and use again.

I called J&G when I lost power to my house in DC. Joey from J&G answered and diagnosed the problem over the phone. He suggested it was a PEPCO issue and that I call PEPCO, even giving the right terminology to use. I called PEPCO and turns out he was right - the issue was fixed soon after. Thanks for Joey's expertise and candor, I didn't have to hire an electrician and we knew what was wrong and how to get it resolved. Thanks J&G!

We contacted J&G Electric after determining that we needed an outlet for a new washing machine. Joey was very responsive and talked us through our options. Joey and Steve went above and beyond to make sure that we were satisfied with the project. Their flexibility and attention to customer service, combined with their professional expertise, made them an excellent choice for an electrician in the D.C. area. We look forward to working with J&G Electric again in the future.

It went well, I paid for two alarms; however, there was only space for one (hard wired alarm). So he also installed a carbon monoxide detector, which is great.

On the whole, my experience with J&G was terrific. Two days before Christmas, our outdoor outlet stopped working -- so no lights outside the house. When I called a couple days after Christmas, Eric answered promptly and fit me into his schedule two days later. Other electricians I called told me it would be at least a week before they could stop by. When he arrived (early), Eric diagnosed the problem and replaced the outlet in about five minutes. The cost (minimum for the visit, I guess) was higher than I thought it might be, but that was the only (slight) negative about my experience. So far, the outlet is working well.

We hired them to rewire our kitchen and bathroom for a home renovation. No problems other than shoddy communication (the office manager never called me back after he promised to look into waiving the 3% credit card processing fee for the deposit) until the night before they were to start, when they left me a voicemail right before closing time saying they were considering cancelling their appointment the following morning because they "didn't believe that I could tell them where the light switches were supposed to go," and questioning my authority to approve anything necessary. Up until that moment they had been dealing with my boyfriend, who had to leave the country for work (as people tend to do in this area), but he instructed them in writing to work with me directly while he was away. I tried calling and emailing them to discuss the issue, but received no response. I had arranged to work from home for 2 days and was concerned they weren't going to show up, so the following morning I called again and finally talked with the owner. He told me he wasn't honoring the appointment because "I wasn't on his schedule" (despite confirming with the office manager days before). Then he told me he was out sick and that's why he didn't respond to my messages, and told me that "If I couldn't understand that then he wasn't sure he wanted to work with me." Then he told me that he didn't believe I knew where the light switches were supposed to go, and that I could actually approve anything since my boyfriend was away. When I pointed out that my boyfriend had emailed him directly asking him to work with me, he said "Up until that email I didn't even know [my boyfriend's name] even had a girlfriend. I thought he lived in that house by himself." He also accused us of 'poor planning' because my boyfriend had to travel when the electrician was supposed to come. Yes folks, this was an actual conversation with someone who we were going to PAY to do a service. The following day my boyfriend and I received a follow up email from the owner reiterating the points he made on the phone call, blaming the 'confusion'/issue on his illness and my boyfriend's travel and referring to me as 'very flustered'. Needless to say, we did not move forward with them.

Response from J & G Electric Co Inc
When we make a contract with the homeowner of the house where we will be performing work, we always request the homeowner be present when work is being performed for a number of reasons. First and foremost, we want the homeowner's decisions to be honored and we want the homeowner to be satisfied with the work performed. As we perform the work, decisions need to be made regarding a number of things and it's important the homeowner make those decisions, not someone they designate. When someone else is making decisions on behalf of the homeowner, many times the homeowner ends up not satisfied with the decisions someone else makes for them, which in turn produces extra charges because we have to make changes. In this particular case we did not contract with anyone other than the homeowner and did not receive notification that another person was given the authority to make decisions on behalf of the homeowner. The email we received from the homeowner only stated to "please contact my girlfriend to schedule the work". Our Master Electrician/ President also contracted bronchitis and borderline pneumonia earlier in the week, and such was unable to take calls on that Tuesday that the customer contacted us. . As stated, we did contact the homeowner and explain this, and we asked how they would like to move forward, if at all. They replied that they opted to hire another contractor to perform the work. I wished them well. J&G has been in business for 32 years and we always strive to make the homeowner satisfied. However, this appeared to be a case in which no resolution was reached. This is unfortunate; however in today's climate of work, contracts are necessary and required by law. If we deviate from our contract, we are at fault. If only the customer who we contracted with gave us ample notice of his trip out of the country, many options could have been applied. We could have had an on-site meeting prior to start date. Starting one week later and/or written into the original contract with the customers' girlfriends name as a contractual individual.

Excellent, as most all wiring was previously done by homeowner with obvious limited knowledge which contributed to the extensive issues. Joey and his team took the time to trace and repair all issues to restore to code. This project took approximately 6 full days to complete, and was done with extreme professionalism, and explained all issues that were addressed and repaired. I would recommend them for any/all electrical issues.

I called J & G Electric on a weekend to request emergency repair work. An actual person (Eric) answered the phone and was super helpful. The same person who answered the phone then came out to my property and quickly resolved the problem. I still needed to hire a plumber to fix the issue but getting power restored asap was essential to help diagnose the problem and get things back to operational. They made everything easy, from start to finish -- and even gave me a generous discount because they could not completely resolve the problem (even though it was not their fault). Wow. I will definitely be using this company again and highly recommend them for emergency and non-emergency electrical needs.

J & G did a great job from scheduling the appointment, getting the estimate, and having my light fixtures installed. James was my technician and he did an amazing job. The fixtures look great and there was no drywall damage at all. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again for any electrical needs.
