I got my light switch replaced and they came prepared with a both a 3 button switch and a 2 button switch. Turns out my 3 button switch that I replaced only needed two. The electricians clearly knew what they were doing, and it seems like they have a mentorship system going on with younger guys in training so that's good to see. Service was more expensive than competitors, so you need to be willing to cash out more than needed. But you can expect quality. read more

A tree fell on my power line on a Friday night and ripped the weatherhead and fascia off my house. Dave was the first to respond to my Yelp project, told me he was sorry he couldn't come immediately but would come first thing Monday. We must have talked to another 30 electricians over the weekend but everyone was booked. Dave had great communication throughout, and was the only one to send a written estimate. Dave and Davy showed up as promised at 8am Monday and spent 4+ hours fixing my wiring for a reasonable flat rate. They put the new I-bolt in the brick but still managed to reattach the fascia board, even though they are not carpenters by trade. Highly recommended! read more

If I could give 6 stars to DW Electric, I would. Had an electrical problem and had an large electrician company come out. Diagnosis was worse than I thought--and the repair was going to total over $1,000 (even after spending $300 plus for coming out and troubleshooting). They offered me 18 month financing at zero interest! Called DW Electric to get a second opinion. The owner, Dave Whitney, came out with another colleague and quickly fixed the problem for less than $250. I was shocked. Honest, reasonable and quick. What else does anyone need in an electrician? (BTW--they are Master Electricians). Their pricing was very reasonable. And I would trust them with all my electrical needs in the future. If you do good work and treat people right, a small business should not have to advertise. Hope everyone agrees with this review if you use them. read more

I needed some electrical work done in my home, and DW Electric came thru for me. I was very impressed with Dave's knowledge and professionalism. He went above and beyond my expectations, as he fixed some bad wiring done by a previous handyman. All of this done at a great price. I will continue to use them for future electrical needs, and I would recommend DW Electric for yours as well. read more

David was excellent - so glad to have found him on yelp! In general, it is hard to get folks to come to the downtown area for repairs. But luckily he was within his service area. I reached out to him for an electrical issue I was having - and promptly had an appointment set up. David came by and was very friendly and skilled in his trade.

Can you provide advice on surge protection for electronic devices in my home?

Hi Addison, we recommend a whole house surge protector. They install in your main panel and protect the entire home, including major appliances. Feel free to contact DW Electric if you’d like a free estimate. Thanks!

Hello Davey put a new breaker in Sept that has been loose or disconnecting and causing lights to go off. When I try to turn it off/on, lights pop back on without flipping the switch when I touch it. The vm box is full. Can someone come look at it?

Hi Brooke, I’m terribly sorry for the inconvenience. We’ll make it right. I’ll message you this evening about scheduling.

These guys are great. Real pros that know their stuff, and not afraid to do the real work. They…read moretook the time to understand the problem, did their investigation, very thorough and took the time to explain the issue. I am no plumber, but these folks are, and they were gracious with their time, and explained it all, and provide options, pros vs cons, best practices, and did not once pressure me to make a decision. Mark, Eddy, and Mike did a superb job. They had no bias, and gave me all the facts and options to make my own decision. At the end of the day, I feel like I can trust them. Real pros. Arrived when they said they would, did what they promise and even more. Fantastic experience. If you want a plumber you can trust.. look no further.

I requested TE to come out and diagnose why an existing circuit was not getting power. Instead of…read morejust fixing the circuit, I agreed to a new panel for my house since it was 60 years old. The price I was quoted was over 12k. I felt the electrician on my job, Jason S. was very high pressure in his tactics and told me I needed to decide that day, or lose potential discounts. I had also been without a kitchen for over 30 days, so I agreed to the work. The next day Jason and an apprentice come out to start the job. They take one whole day to remove and replace the new panel, no problem. Here is where it goes downhill. On the second day of work, Jason and another apprentice came out and instead of prioritizing the circuit I hired him for, they start installing the hardwired smoke detectors Dekalb county allegedly requires. This took all day! By about 4 pm, I asked if he was going to get the outlet done so I could use my dishwasher and he replied "I guess if I stay here all night". I said I guess thats what you got to do then, and they were here til nearly 8 pm. Then he made several other unprofessional comments about staying late. Jason never came back to my job. A new Electrician came out on Monday, Jason said he had an emergency job. The part where they earned this rating comes when I found out my pool motor circuit was not working on the new GFCI circuit. I explained to them it originally was on a two pole circuit and now they had it on two single poles. It was drawing 240v and they had the model number and should have researched the wiring on their own as professionals. Rather than listen to me, I had to wait all day for the new electrician (with Jason on the phone) come up with a new quote to fix which included trenching up and re-wiring my entire pool, ANOTHER 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS! I was livid. I started looking into this and it turns out I was right, it just needed a 2 pole GFCI. I talked to the second electrician the next day and told him I want to talk to a supervisor or manager. I got a call later in the day from Jeffrey who was going to look into it and get back to me the same day. He did not. He did call me the next morning and agreed to send one of his best guys out to install a 2 pole and see if that solves the problem. Well guess what, it did! And, I didn't have to pay another 5K. I expected to hear back from Jeffrey again to ensure the job was to my satisfaction as you should on a service recovery. I did not. I feel lied to, and that I was robbed and almost taken needlessly for thousands more, had I not done my research which should not be necessary as a layperson. I understand from TE employees the Electricians control the cost, and they get a commission from it. Unfortunately, I paid for an electricians summer vacation because I trusted him. Luis L and Nathan the electricians at TE, thank you! Micah, Gavin, Phillip the apprentices, thank you too! Jeffrey I thank you for doing the minimum by ensuring what I paid for was completed. Jason, no thank you at all. You've sowed distrust in professionals and your industry with your practices.

David really knows his stuff. I've hired him multiple times since we used him to rewire our old 1930s East Atlanta bungalow. Not only is his electrical work meticulous, but he and his crew are respectful and professional. They always pick up after themselves every day on the job and leave the area cleaner than when they found it. He's come in under budget each time we've used him and will be honest with costs and never "upsell" me on anything, unlike experiences I've had with other electricians. If he knows of a better way of doing something that's safe and will save me money, he'll let me know. I will never use anyone else! read more
