New Main

I called Empire to replace damage by another contractor. He quickly diagnosed the problem, offered solutions at varying price levels. Once agreed he went to work and completed the whole job of replacing my main and service panels in 1 day. Everything to code and all working fine 6 months later.

I have conducted business with Empire for the last year. I have entrusted Ezra with projects ranging from outlet installations to electrical panel upgrades, Mini Split AC, faulty wiring repairs and more. I can say with confidence that safety is his main priority. He has conducted all of his work to code and corrected unsafe conditions throughout my home. Scheduling has been fairly straightforward. Like all small businesses he has his periods where he is busy and it may take a little longer than expected for a response. That's just the nature of the beast in my opinion. Ezra is very knowledgeable and a problem solver. He will always provide you with options. As it is ultimately up to the homeowner what is to take place. I have read some of the negative reviews and I can say that mine have been nothing like that. All work has been completed as promised. I have never had any billing issues. I've had to change orders and there is a restocking fee, but that's outlined on the contract and expected. I never comment on peoples pricing, so I won't start here. I will say that I feel my money has been well spent. My mini split AC installation has become the standard for my neighborhood due to his attention to detail during the design and installation. The materials were also painted to the HOA standard. My energy efficiency has improved vastly since the panel upgrade. I am currently working to hire him for yet another project. As he has earned our trust. Empire Electrical will be the only electrician we hire for projects big or small.

We hired E I Electrical to replace a few switches in our condo because our previous electrician was…read moreacquired by this company. They were able to come and inspect the work within a short notice and provided us with an on-site estimate. Everything seemed satisfactory until I was informed that the estimate would include a yearly fee for any future work. This fee would automatically provide us with a built-in discount for subsequent services. This was the first indication that something was amiss. Why would I want to pay an annual fee for work that had already been completed? Another peculiar aspect of their pricing was the flat rate fixed price for each item. They offered a similar approach to car repairs, where a flat rate is charged for parts like a quarter panel or hood. For an outlet in a switch, they had a flat fixed rate. They assured us that this included labor and materials. However, they failed to mention that they sourced the cheapest possible materials. They also stated that I could purchase the materials myself, but I lacked the time to do so. Consequently, I ended up having cheap switches, even though the price seemed exorbitant in my opinion. Given the urgency of the project, I had no choice but to agree. However, this is when the problems began. The project was initially promised to be completed in a day and a half or two at the most. Surprisingly, it took four days to complete the work. They arrived at the site by midday every day and proceeded to shop for materials for that day. Essentially, they had four half-day workdays. The workmanship was rated a 4.5 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. The finish work was quite disappointing. They made numerous holes and neglected to save the drywall pieces to fit them back in, leaving me with a mess of mismatched drywall. They claimed they didn't typically put it back, but they didn't inform me of this when I agreed to hire them. To make matters worse, when I tried to reach the office staff or another representative they initially mistook me for a salesperson or someone trying to hassle me until I proved my identity as a customer. This was quite frustrating. It seemed like they prioritized their profits over my satisfaction. The phone representative kept talking and refused to listen. I don't believe he knew how to listen effectively. Fortunately, I received a call from the owner one day. He was quite pleasant, but it was evident that he has a personnel issue. I would never hired this company again and would never recommend them to anyone. On top of the shoddy work and unethical behavior, they attempted to double-charge me for my services. I noticed a second charge for a similar amount on my credit card, and initially, they denied it. I insisted they investigate the matter, as I had sent them a screenshot of my credit card. Eventually, they admitted to the mistake reversed the charges. Neither the owner nor the project manager called to apologize. In my opinion, their work, ethics, and overall business practices are extremely sloppy, unfriendly to customers, and unprofessional.

Mahalo to Peter and Josh!…read more During the busy holiday season and with Christmas lights hanging around the house, you do not want the outlets around the house to quit working. Searched on YELP for an electrician. Peter Gomez reached out via phone. He was professional and answered my questions. Arranged for Josh to come out the next morning to take a look at the outlets. Arrived in a timely manner and called me of his arrival. After inspecting the areas, he knew what the issue was and completed it within time provided. He also walked around checking on other possible not working outlets and found it all working properly. Josh is a local boy, very young and very knowledgeable. "Word of mouth" is part of my helping others and supporting local. This is one company that I would like everyone to know that they are awesome. Please give them a call or visit their website for more information.

Unfortunately, Peter canceled this work just a few days prior to when the work was to begin. This left me scrambling around to try to find another electrician to complete our project. I feel that by canceling at the last minute, it wasn't very professional on his part. I'm really surprised that Peter canceled as we were just communicating the day before he canceled and everything was confirmed.
