The Electric Company of Seattle Inc

Lighting, electrician

About us

The roots of the Electric Company can be traced back to 1979 when founder Stephen Brandeis first began doing business under that name, providing electrical services to his local community. Where did the name come from? His kids will tell you that he was inspired by one of their favorite TV shows from that era, The Electric Company. When the family moved to Seattle in the early 1990s the name came with them, and since then the business has grown and more family members have joined the team. We're proud to be family owned and operated, and we want our customers and employees to feel like family too. If there's ever anything we can do to help just let us know. We're right there when you need us!

Hired to install three outdoor security lighting fixtures + an outdoor outlet. Their proposal was about $250.00 lower than another company. They were easy to work and very accommodating to our last minute schedule changes. One of the light bulb wasn't working, but they came to replace it right away. I would hire them again.

He was very pleasant. The only thing was that he offered to put in a new outlet faceplate (I only got an outlet changed) and forgot. And for less than 30 minutes of work I paid $130. The my husband came home and told me that he found someone who would do it for $99 for the first two hours. And then I felt dumb for being proud I took the initiative instead of communitcating with him first.

Hire these guys!! They were very responsive, provided the most competitive bid and came through on everything. It was a big project for me with an important deadline. They promised to take good care of me and they did. I would call them again and recommend them highly. JoAnn M in Seattle

I selected this company based on a friend's recommendation and its location in our neighborhood. I was not impressed by the confusing email contact a day later regarding scheduling or by the phone conversation to set up a time. The worker was punctual, cordial, and efficient. I did have to point out a wire not tucked into a flush mount fixture he had completed tightening. While it was an easy fix, on such a simple project, it lost points with me. Next time I need electrical work done, I may rely on In House Electrical (called me in a matter of minutes after my request) or another firm.

Stephen, just wanted to say thanks...Mike did a great job...he's fast, knowledgeable, hardworking, and easy to communicate with. Definitely looking forward to continuing to work with you and Mike. Since we like to pay cash as we go it will be a while before we get back to you but we'll definitely do so (hopefully late spring). Thanks again, Royal
