Thomas was very quick to come out to our house and got us a quote the same night. Him and his team were able to start that following Tuesday and really moved quick. Thomas is awesome at communicating every detail of the project so you know exactly where your money is going and their plan that following day/week. Most importantly, they do great quality work and provided us an awesome place to hang out with family and friends. 10/10 recommend!!! I will contact Thomas again for additional work at the house later on! read more

DO NOT USE Grounded Electrical they started a basement project in our home and did not complete the work. Thomas was paid 90% of the job and went dark. Now we have to go to court. We reached out to the owner numerous times and no response. DO NOT USE read more

I want to start off by saying this is not the review that I want to write, or thought I would be writing. The owner of this company, Thomas Bush, is a complete scam artist (although calling him any kind of artist is a stretch, he has absolutely no vision or style. He showed me something he was really proud of and it looked like a cheap flipper's catalog from 2003). My experience started out great. Thomas is very friendly and personable and we developed a great working relationship. He was suggesting really low end products for my kitchen and basement so we talked about it and I decided to purchase all of the supplies and if he bought little things here and there he'd add them to my total. I paid for all of his labor exactly on the requested schedule through both projects. He didn't even remotely finish the jobs and ended up ghosting me. For my basement, he didn't do my stairs and stairwell as we discussed. My kitchen is far worse though. I had him turn a door around from the basement area to open in my kitchen as a pantry. He left totally unstable and incomplete shelves in there that have fallen many times and that meant my microwave crashing down a few times. He was also supposed to put flooring in the pantry which was never done. In the kitchen he was to paint over dark gray paint with a specific sheen of white paint that I picked out. He used a flat white and very clearly did one coat which is streaky and already peeling when I gently wipe it with a wet paper towel. It actually peeled the first day I came back into my house. I was replacing four windows, two in my kitchen and two in my basement, and the storm door in my kitchen. I had asked him at least ten times for the dimensions of the windows so I could order them. When he finally gave me the dimensions and the windows came in, he had flipped the length and width which doesn't allow me to open them at all. When I try they crash down and look like they're going to fall in. The job he did was just plain sloppy too. I've been getting a ton of bugs in because they are just not even remotely sealed properly. There are so many gaps in wood trim pieces and the whole thing just looks crappy. I had him extend counters on one side to make a breakfast bar seating area. Without consulting me at all, he put the pillars to hold the counter directly under where the chairs go so it's super uncomfortable to sit there and looks ridiculous. This was not at all what we had discussed and I understand that the weight of the countertops made the original plan impossible but he clearly didn't think about functionality. When he replaced the windows and door he left a giant pile of trash, rusted nails, and broken glass in my back patio area. He told me he would be over to clean it up and that's when he just completely disappeared. He told me he didn't want me to pick up the broken glass out back. He knows very well what my situation is, I'm a single mom with very little time to take care of all of this stuff properly. I moved out of my house in April for him to do the kitchen. When I left, my house didn't have a bug issue. When I moved back I was overrun with mosquitoes. I have cameras outside and I could see him and his guys leaving my door wide open all day to smoke directly in front of my open door. My house also smelled like cigarettes when I moved back in. I have had to get an exterminator to try to get this all taken care of and it's been a nightmare. I'm hugely disappointed in his work and lack of professionalism. I know for a fact that he's been avoiding me because I texted him on my work number pretending to be interested in a job and he responded immediately. I have called, texted, and emailed all with no response for over a month. I'm going to have to get a lot of this fixed and it will be at least another $3000 according to my new contractor. The one thing is my floors look great but I picked them out (he wanted to do cheap looking vinyl flooring. But funnily enough, my inside camera went off when they were starting them and I just happened to hear him telling his guys how stupid I was for picking out nice flooring. He also charged me for labor that wasn't done on them. Nothing was priced out on the invoice so I can't even tell how steeply he overcharged for things that either weren't done or were done very shoddily. There are plenty of contractors out there. This isn't the one. read more

Good communication. Fast and clean work. I had a new circuit installed. It was easy. He also let me know a break for some unmarked outlets.

Thomas was super fast with his replies, came out personally to look at the job to be done (hook up pool pump with wiring under ground from house to pump) and sent me a very competitive estimate within 24hrs. All in all very friendly and efficient service, flexible scheduling and excellent customer service. I would highly recommend Grounded Electrical! read more

Got a level 2 charger installed into my detached garage. Thomas was very responsive and gave me a fair and accurate quote to do the work quickly. Very pleased with the work. Hard to find reliable, reasonable electricians these days. Highly recommend using him. read more

They sent a young man who did carpentry work to open up the opening and another who did electrical. My LG wall unit combo was installed beautifully! Nice work! read more

I reached out to several electricians on Yelp and Grounded Electrical was by far the most responsive and best priced. Thomas came out within two days and the new light fixture looks great!! Highly recommend read more

Five stars all around! We just bought a house and needed some electrical work done and Thomas has been so incredible. We will continue to use him for our electrical work in the future and we have recommended him to my parents for some upcoming work on their house. Thomas and Grounded Electrical are amazing and we will definitely be hiring them again! read more

I needed electrical work done in my garage for a new garage freezer. I got a response back from the business in under 2 hours with a quote. We scheduled the work and he came on time, finished in less than 2 hours. Very reasonable price, very professional. read more

I was looking to get doorbell wires installed by the front door and and a floodlight mounted on the driveway. Thomas gave me a quote and showed up to my house within a couple of days of me reaching out. He was very communicative and knowledgeable. I recommend his services and will reach out again for my future electrical projects. Thanks! Rich read more

On Sept 21st 2022, we entered into a contractual agreement with Grounded Electric LLC (HIC # PA168075) for renovations. We paid $18,000.00 by bank transfer (40% of total contract!) in a deposit as stipulated in the contract for services to total $50,000.00 by project completion. Thomas Bush, the company's representative, stated that he attempted to obtain a permit from the City of Philadelphia but was unable to do so due to a lack of proper insurance coverage on his part. No work has been completed or started. This company initially said they were licensed and we checked their license with the state of PA and insurance as verification. However, when Thomas Bush applied for a permit with the City of Philadelphia, he was unable to provide the appropriate documentation (scope of work and insurance requirements) to secure a Philadelphia permit or license. He stated that the cost of the required insurance is not worth it for his business. More than three weeks after payment, on 10/15/2022 Thomas Bush stated he would refund the total amount of $18,000.00 back to us by 10/17/2022. We requested certified funds and tracking but after this request Thomas decided to send a personal check in an open window envelope via regular mail on 10/18/22. In quotes is direct communication with Thomas after asking him to send the refund via electronic or expedited means: "Since it's not possible to issue the refund via methods it was received it's at my discretion how to issue the refund. I will mail a check with the full amount $18,000 to address listed below today via standard mail. This is the best I can do at this point in time. Consider my response a token a good faith that it's on the way, I could've gone silent and left you in the dark. Sorry again. " How do you think we feel, waiting on an $18K personal check via snail mail in an open window envelope with no tracking after stating he could have "gone dark"? Hopefully the check arrives in a timely fashion and the personal check does not bounce. read more

Completed rewiring of weather tight pool pump timer controls and switching for a filtration pump and a new cleaner booster pump. Work was quoted and completed at a competitive price and as scheduled. read more

I am really pleased. I needed some hardwired smoke detectors replaced and some outlets fixed. Thomas was super nice, reliable, efficient, and did great work that cost way less than two big companies were gonna charge. I'm keeping his card and will call him again if/when I need electrical work done. read more

Excellent work on reasonable price very responsive and will highly recommend this company

Cheaper than competitors. Did a good job bringing panel up to code and installing a fixture.

They were responsive immediately and flexible. They gave me a fair quote too. Then I heard nothing regarding our upcoming install. I contacted the owner days beforehand and found out that he had to leave the state and that I should have received a phone call canceling my install. There was no phone call, and now he isn't responding at all regarding a recommendation or future install date. I was counting on this project being completed before Christmas. Very disappointing. read more
