I went with Edison because of the good reviews. Joe was fine--the work was quality, I'm sure, and…read morehe was both friendly and thorough. There was no up front quote prior to the service fee being charged, and while I expected I might pay a premium, it would up being over 50% more than another quote I got. I would consider the company itself to be opportunistic and somewhat manipulative. The service fee does not roll into the project itself as it would at a mechanic, but does make you feel committed to them. That fee includes a whole house eval, which was then used to try to sell me every kind of upgrade possible. Since I paid the fee, I used the opportunity to ask about some electrical codes for things I'm considering doing myself, and there was no hesitation to price it out for me in case I wanted the work done. When it came time to present the potential options, they were presented as financing options--definitely a sales tactic to get me to commit to spending on these extras projects, which would have been triple the cost of the one thing I called them for. My idea of a good contractor is one that presents options with honesty and warns me when something is a problem, and this was opportunistic. I'd look elsewhere.

This is my second Yelp review for Randy's Electric because my first one mysteriously vanished. I…read moredon't know how or why, but based on everything I've experienced, I wouldn't be surprised if they try to bury negative feedback. Their Google reviews are almost perfect -- yet everyone I've talked to says the exact same thing: their real-life service does NOT match their ratings. Maybe some reviews are real, but certainly not all. Now for my experience, which was absolutely infuriating: Jeremy came to my home and quoted me $2,700 just to convert two lights into ceiling fans and replace one GFCI outlet. The prices they charged were beyond ridiculous: $300 for ONE GFCI $150 for a simple light switch $500 EACH for two fan brackets ($1,000 total) -- brackets that cost $23 retail That's not a markup. That is taking advantage of people. Their behavior was just as bad as their pricing. They show all prices on an iPad. When I was on the phone asking someone if this sounded normal, Jeremy literally snatched the iPad out of my hand the second I finished talking. He guarded that iPad like his life depended on it because he knew the pricing was outrageous. Completely disrespectful and incredibly unprofessional. I asked for an itemized invoice with real part numbers and real labor charges. Jeremy told me, "I'll email it to you." I still have nothing. The only invoice I received was written in vague "units" -- a convenient way to avoid transparency and hide price gouging. And the worst of all: They quoted me $19,000 -- yes, NINETEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS -- to upgrade my electrical panel from a split 60/120 amp setup to a standard 200 amp box. Other electricians quoted between $2,500-$4,500. Randy's Electric wasn't just high -- they were five to seven times the normal price. That is predatory and absolutely shameful. The owner even came out trying to justify the $500 brackets by saying they "add a yellow tag to every bracket." Later I learned that the yellow tag is just the manufacturer's tag that comes with the bracket. Nothing more. Another excuse. Another lie. Since this happened, I've talked to so many people -- and not a single person has had a positive experience with this company. Everyone says the same thing: overpriced, shady, rude, and preying on people who don't know electrical costs. Jeremy and the owner should be ashamed of themselves for the way they treat people and for the way they conduct business. It is absolutely disgusting behavior. Randy's Electric preys on the unknowledgeable, the vulnerable, and the people who genuinely need help. Their lack of transparency, their predatory pricing, and their disrespect toward customers say everything you need to know. If this review stops even ONE person from being taken advantage of the way I was, then it's worth writing twice -- because Yelp deleted the first one. I will NEVER use Randy's Electric again, and I strongly warn anyone considering them: Run the other way. Do not let them take advantage of you the way they did to me.

I called the "big name" electrician, who gave me…read moreno help on the phone, and the soonest a tech could come out was the next day on a "stand-by" basis. And they wanted $80 before the end of the phone call. Not cool. I said thanks but no thanks. I called Rivertown Electric. I go help on the phone and had TWO trucks in my driveway in 15 minutes. The meter was pulled and it was determined that the issue was an Xcel problem (brown out). When asked how much for the service call, I was told, "Nothing, we didn't do anything." Needless to say, I highly recommend them based on their promptness and fairness. Very refreshing.

What really stood out was the pricing: it felt genuinely fair for the scope of work, with no surprise add-ons or "gotchas" once they were on site. Professional, transparent, and high-quality.

Not only was Jon quick to…read morerespond to my request, but ensure that communication was fluid through the entire process of our project, including arrival times and times when the power would need to be off (which was great because we work from home.) John was extremely knowledgeable and dove in immediately to assess and diagnose our challenges. He answered all of our questions and brought a great energy with him in addition! He was able to help us troubleshoot the issues we had in getting electricity to our shed, install our Tesla wall charger using an existing outlet pre-wired for the load and capacity, and all without giving us the run around. We are straight forward people and appreciate a straight forward service. We learned a lot from Jon and are so very grateful for his willingness to educate us while helping us out. We feel his pricing was more than fair and reasonable, and feel the value he brought exceeded expectations! We also appreciate his personality and up beat attitude and great sense of humor!! We will definitely be calling John and his team again anytime we run into a more complicated electrical matter, and any other matters! His 30 years of experience (over 70+ between him and Mike) certainly shows! Thank you again!

On top of that, he went above and beyond to make sure the final result was done exceptionally well, not just "good enough." (And he was so kind and patient with my dogs!) If you're looking for an electrician who is skilled, thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about doing excellent work, this is the one to call. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone.
