They booked my appointment very quickly (none of that 'we can't even bother to open the book to see if we have time for your broken switch') and kept in touch on scheduling, pricing and change orders I put in. The electrician was prompt, professional, thorough. I have an old house and will eventually need more work, and I will call them first. I would recommend them highly. read more

I have used Exact Electric for a couple of jobs. One was wiring my new print shop location during a new build-out and the other was to install a 225 amp sub-panel at a new storage building. Both times the pricing was good and Zack was easy to work with. The jobs were started on time and completed promptly. I would use Exact Electric again and recommend them highly to others.

I feel it's is extremely hard to find a good and honest electrician. From the start to finish I was very impressed with Exact Electric. Odd at first to sign paperwork agreeing to a certain amount of work but it actually ended up being just fine. The service guy was super nice, very informative, clean and knowledgeable. He didn't seem to take the short cuts as people have in the past. My only issue now is my ceiling fan blows air up and not down. Not an Exact electric issue however I can't find the reverse switch. ‍ Guess I should have checked that before he left, I was just so excited to have it up. read more

Responsive and prompt service! Efficient review, punctual estimate and on-line contracts and payment service. They showed up on-time and performed the work effectively and efficiently. A+ read more

Moving into a new (to us) house, we had a bucket-list of electrical issues that needed to be addressed, the largest of this being a Zinsco electric panel replacement. We got quotes from several other highly-rated companies in the area, and Exact Electric was very responsive to our queries, and actually came in with the lowest quote (all done from our inspection report). The electricians we had come out to perform this work were friendly, knowledgeable and respectful of our home and property. We were very happy with the quality of the work and the obvious pride the team takes in their labor. read more

Service was great and did a good install job. Had three track light installations in condo unit, service was great and professional. Labor costs are a little higher than I would have liked, so if you are looking for electrical, you should ensure that you shop around first. However, I would recommend Exact for electrical services. read more

I needed help when I lost power in my bathroom and found Exact Electric on Yelp. I called on a Monday and was able to schedule a service call for Friday. Aubree, Justin, Eric - everyone was helpful, upfront and patient with me. Ralph, the electrician, showed up on time, quickly diagnosed the problem, fixed it, and took the time to answer unrelated electrical questions. I highly recommend Exact Electric and will use them again! read more

I am a general contractor in Seattle for 19 years. Exact Electric is the best electrical contractor I have ever used. They show up on time, do a professional job, clean up after themselves, and most importantly don't nickel and dime me. Some companies low ball the bid to get the job, then add "extras" to pad the bill, Exact Electric have never done that to me, or my customers. I highly recommend Exact Eectric. read more

We've used Exact Electric three times. The first two were fantastic. This last experience left me a little disappointed. The electrician arrived on time and the job is now finished and everything is working well. So, from a technical perspective, everything was great. However 99% of the work was done on the first day and it took weeks (literally) for someone to return to finish the last 1%. As a customer, I find this baffling and frustrating. Then yesterday I happened to be doing something in the area where they worked and I realized that there was still a hole from the outside where a conduit was put it. Basically, the hole is bigger than the conduit (which is fine), but the gap around the conduit was never sealed (which is not fine since it could allow pests into the house). I don't mind paying top dollar for services (which is what we paid) if they are top notch, but in this case the delays and lack of attention to detail simply weren't worth it. read more

Maybe we were just a fluke or maybe these reviews are written by employees(!), I don't know, but Exact has no sense of time and piss poor communication. Scheduled a couple different appointments, Zach blew off the first, was 45min late for the second. They were supposed to start work one day, didn't start till the next, thus holding up other trades. Held off installing key circuits for a heat pump so mechanical contractors could not finish and WE WERE FORCED TO GO WITHOUT HEAT. All when a little communication and planning from Exact would have changed everything. Inexcusable for a professional contractor. Electricians are a dime a dozen these days, there is no reason to spend your money with these people when there are so many qualified and service oriented companies. TL;DR, Fuck Exact Electric. read more

I had Exact add a 220v outlet for an additional wall oven and replace an older circuit box. Aric figured out the way to get the new line into my kitchen without drilling holes into the walls. He and his assistance, Brandon, showed up exactly on time and worked as well as a team to get the work done efficiently and everything works perfectly. Pricing was very fair and I will definitely call them the next time I need electrical work. read more

What I love about Exact Electric is that they have enough employees to get the job done, but not so many that their service doesn't still feel local and personalized. They've done lots of jobs for different people that I've worked with over the years and everyone I talk to has been nothing but satisfied. Their owner, Zach, is amazing and professional, as well as just an all-around good guy. read more

Exact Electric followed up on my request right away. They figured out the problem and gave me advise on what to do moving forward. The company and electrician were very easy to work with, professional, available when I needed them and up front with the fees. What more can you ask for! read more

Zach did a small electrical job at my house at a moments notice. I called one day and he was there the very next day. He was on time and completed the project timely. Zach works very fast and efficiently. He was a nice guy and very easy to work with. I would definitely use him again. Will read more

Used Exact Electric during my kitchen remodel, and they were excellent. Kudos to Erin who was always on time and did excellent work.

I have a rental unit and the thermostat went bad, call few places om yelp that was highly reviewed but never got a call back, finally one smaller business email me and referred me to exact electric. They book an appointment right away with my tenant and came out and replaced it. I will be going back to them for my other rentals. read more

Juan, Eric and Jasmine were excellent representatives of your company. They were courteous and professional throughout our project. I'll be putting Exact at the top of my list of contractors for future services. read more

Punctual, professional, experienced. I've used Exact in the past, and will continue to use them in the future! They have top notch customer service and are affordable. They own up to their work and it shows. read more

Eric troubleshooted our electrical problem and got the job done the best way possible and the safest. No fast outside line outside on our siding. Instead, an electrical cord had been hit with a nail when the house was built and it finally shorted was found by him- that could have been a fire inside the wall of our small attic area. Now the line is all new and on the inside where it belongs, the switches all new, and the new attached outside light is shining. Good to go~~~ read more

The people at Exact Electric care. They care about their quotes, timeliness, and customer service. I'd be happy to recommend Exact!

We've been pleased to use Zach's services on two projects on our hundred-year-old Craftsman in Queen Anne. One was a bigger project - moving the incoming mast and electrical box from the rear to the front of the house, and another was a whole list of repairs that just needed to be done. Zack and his team did great work both times. Since my husband is an Electrical Engineer, we can be a bit fussy as to how the work is done. Zach's worked passed with flying colors from both my husband and the building inspector perspective. We look forward to seeing Zach again in the near future, to have him help us with another list of repairs. read more

From the time I first noticed my potential electrical problem, to the time a technician was at my house and had the issue rectified TOOK LESS THAN ONE HOUR!!! Wow...what great service!! read more

I purchased a small solar kit for learning & emergency purposes. It was marketed as a DIY sort of project and I hired a general contractor to install it. Big mistake. Turns out the guy didn't really know what he was doing--and I didn't know enough to know that. After a couple of months and the system still wasn't working he blamed non-function on faulty kit components, which I had replaced. Still no go. So over the next couple of months I called solar techs and electricians to take a look. One of these guys said the system was shorted out and needed to be replaced (!!). Another, from a solar company, thought it might be a botched wiring problem but didn't seem interested in actually fixing it and he referred me elsewhere. It was difficult to find someone to take on my little project, much less someone knowledgeable and willing to actually discover and repair the problem. Zach from Exact Electric is the man I wish I had called at the beginning of this project. He got out the ladder, crawled up on my garage roof then removed the two solar panels from the frame. After examining each connection he found that the problem was a simple reverse wiring that was canceling out the charge. Within an hour the sun was charging my batteries, it was so cool! I plan to work w/Zach in the future to make the system more safe and secure overall. Professional, knowledgeable, high standards for quality and safety --he's got my highest recommendation. read more

The company is awesome!! The crew were professional and took time to educate me about the system they put in my 1920's house. I will continue to use them as I continue the restoration of my house. read more

I had a bizarre electrical incident where the power line to my house had its strain relief break (City Light's fault) and the neutral line was pulled right out of the meter base. I called the top two Yelp rated electricians. One never called back-ever-and Exact actually answered their phone with a real human! They sent Chris over as soon as possible and he diagnosed what was a very unusual and puzzling problem. Once we figured it out, City Light told me they would "restore power". Needless to say, they did not, and I had to call Chris back-virtually after hours on his wife's birthday-to come and complete the job. I cannot say enough about his professional approach and great attitude. They really came through, individually and as a company. They are one of the best small businesses I have worked with in several years! read more

Exact Electric did an absolutely outstanding job for me. Over the life of the floor heat which was installed in our new Sunroom in combination with our current kitchen 15 years ago, I have struggled for a solution that would not create problems every few years. Kyle help me do that and I am very grateful. He is very personable, hard-working, knows how to listen, and has the knowledge and intelligence to figure out what is needed. read more

My renters requested a thermostat be installed in our house for better efficiency. We were happy to comply and when I contacted Exact Electric, I got great service. Trina, who I corresponded with via email, was always super responsive to any questions/concerns I had. My renters reported being happy with the work and the product...happy renters = happy landlords! We even got a thank you card....who does that? They do. I highly recommend using Exact Electric, you will be glad you did! read more

Over the years we've used Exact several times, most lately to install motion activated lights on the gable end of the house. This took a lot of crawling around in the attic but it all resulted in a very clean install, both on the outside of the house and the inside (!) where the electrician used a drop cloth and then cleaned up after himself really well. Quality and careful work is what you want when it comes to electricity! read more

Exact electric was recommended by another highly rated electrician in the area. They came for an estimate in a timely manner and after the contract was signed started a week later. After talking with Eric, who was the foreman for the project, and telling him I liked to huddle each day for any issues that have come up it was a very pleasant experience. He did a great job explaining why and what had to happen to make sure the electrical update was successful. By the way- my house is 104 yrs old and was per his words "a 11 out of 10 for difficulty in updating." He told me each day he was leaving so I could bring my kids back and was available by texts during the entire day. They wanted us to be very satisfied and it showed. Will use them again for any big electrical needs. read more

This work was done thoroughly with great attention to detail and my preferences. He arrived on time, gave me options to consider, cleaned up thoroughly, and made the space even more beautiful with the installation of a new bath light. My only wish is that I could have thanked him in person, since he left quietly. read more

Zach, the owner of Exact Electric, did a fabulous job with upgrading the electrical in my 1928 Seattle home. I chose Zach because of the great reviews here, and he definitely lived up to his reputation. One of the tasks was to upgrade the stairway light to two 3-way switches (one downstairs, one upstairs). After we settled on a price, Zach suggested that a third switch be added (one downstairs, two upstairs), and did this for no additional charge. He also installed extra outlets in the hallway at no additional change. All of this was done with very minimal holes in the walls. Zach was very flexible setting up appointments. I was having my bathroom remodeled, and due to scheduling of the other contractors, the electrical needed to be done over the weekend. I called Zach and explained the situation, and he was able to complete the bathroom work that Saturday. Overall I found Zach to be flexible and easy to work with. He is confident, creative (minimal holes in wall), and very skillful. I'm very happy with the work that he did. I would highly recommend Zach, especially with older homes that may require some tricky and creative wire routing. read more

Exact electric has been our primary contractor for all electrical work. They have been prompt, professional, and very cost effective for our projects. All the staff members at Exact are extremely knowledgeable and courteous when working together. I'm a strong believer in integrity and professionalism, Exact Electric meets that standard on a consistent basis. read more

I am so impressed with Exact Electric. Evan took my call, and helped me trouble shoot things over the phone. For the things I couldn't fix, Kelly came to my home, quickly diagnosed, and solved the problem. Honest, smart, and reasonability priced. Thank you so much! I will use exact electric from now on. read more

This company is great. They showed up when they said they would, stuck to the estimate, even though the work turned out to be more complicated than they originally thought. Very pleasant, hard working and professional stuff. I would definitely use them again for any electrical work we have in the house. read more

Exact Electric did a fine job adding a few electrical sockets to my condo. Due to illness of an electrician and a couple of unforeseen circumstances they showed up a couple of hours late, which made the coordination with other contractors difficult. And, the electricians hadn't reviewed the diagrams I sent in advance. However, the company worked very hard to get the job done as quickly as possible and they were quite apologetic. Jennifer in the office and Rich, the electrician who did most of the work were very responsive and did their best to get it right in the end. I would use them again and I recommend Exact Electric. read more

We use Exact Electric at our commercial building in down town Seattle!!! They are always on time, on budget, clean and I truly can't say enough about their services. They will always be the one and only Electrician we use! read more

I'm updating this review after speaking with Chad, a manager at Exact Electric. After my calls to them yesterday, he let me know that he had originally made a note for them to comp my account for the invoice I had concerns about, and that the collection call to me was a mistake. He also asked how they could improve their service, and let me know that they have taken action to address some of my concerns, including using new project management software. I don't know if I'll use them in the future, but this response definitely improved my satisfaction level with them, and is better customer service than I've gotten from many other businesses after complaints. read more

The service was great! Eric was very helpful. He took his time to listen and understand what type of lighting we need. Based on that he gave his recommendation, which was the most cost-effective and efficient way to solve our lighting issue. They ordered everything and promptly installed in our house. Couldn't be happier with the outcome and the level of service. Highly recommend them. read more

Zach and his team did a complete electrical rewiring of my home in Ballard, Seattle. His price was very competitive, and the work was done on time. I was delighted by how careful his team was about making as few holes as possible in walls to feed wires through. The work was of very high quality. They are electrical experts. I would definitely hire him again. I used to do contracting work, so I know a good job when I see one. read more

An Update: Shortly after my original review, I was contacted again by Exact Electric. They had seen my review and were very apologetic about the situation, knocking off more than half of the charges. That doesn't alleviate the very disorganized set of responses that led the relatively simple job to taking over a month to get completed, but it does mean I don't feel overcharged anymore. I'd be happy to use them for regular, somewhat complicated electric work in the future, but I do think for minor networking repairs, which they don't seem as prepared for, I'll be taking business elsewhere in the future. In any case, I do very much appreciate that they took the time to try to rectify the situation as much as possible once they found this review. read more
