Let me start off by saying that I recognize I live pretty far away from Atlanta. It takes me about an hour to get downtown. I like big city amenities, but I live in the DEEP suburbs. So I'm used to having to compromise on service -- especially with things like plumbers and electricians. But I have a surprise for you: Home electrical solutions is a solid choice for an electrician. The setup ====== Sometime in late 2024, we had a wind storm in my neck of the woods and for some strange reason, several GFCI circuits tripped. So I went around the house and reset them all -- but there was one circuit that refused to come back on. Luckily it was just a few outlets, so it was a minor inconvenience. I lived without it for a few months. The call ====== But then I decided that living without my master bathroom outlets was a bit of a pain. So I decided to call an electrician. I had a bad experience with a previous electrician constantly trying to upsell me, so I took a moment to select a different one on Yelp. I reached out to Home Electrical Solutions, and Emil and I ended up chatting on the phone. It turns out he had a spot open that afternoon, so we made an appointment The cost ====== Emil was very up front about the cost: $170 for a trip charge and an hour of diagnostics. It seemed a little steep, but I was curious so I agreed. The service ====== When Emil came over, he was very courteous and professional. I took him to the circuit breaker panel and showed him the outlets that didn't seem to be working in the house. What ensued was a 30 minute adventure where Emil showed off his problem solving skills. Let's just say that you don't have to be worried that his prices are too high -- he's worth every penny. He discovered that the problem was actually a loose connection in an outlet in the NEXT ROOM. I know, I know -- I wouldn't have believed it either, if I wasn't there following him around. The guy is good at his job. Summary ====== If you have need of an electrician, Emil is your guy. Not only do we have power in our master bathroom outlets again, but I have a deeper understanding of the circuits in my own house because Emil took the time to chat with me. When I need an electrician again, I know who I'm going to call. read more

Emil was wonderful and his quote was the best of multiple we received. He put in 40+ recessed lights including several tricky ones on cathedral/pitched ceilings. He also changed out our bathroom fans, fixed 3-way light switches, took down a really high and bulky chandelier, and a host of other issues. Emil is part electrician, part surgeon. He creates the smallest amount of damage possible to the ceiling, making it easier for the sheet rockers after him- in some rooms he got 4 lights in there with only 1 hole beyond the ones that the lights actually went into! See pics. He would drill 1-3 holes and use tools to thread wires through rather than cutting the length of the wire along the wall. Then he would drill the hole of sheetrock he cut right back where he took it from. I'm dragging my feet on getting a sheet rocker bc the residual "damage" is not that noticeable. read more

Emil was amazing to work with. He's worked on two of our homes installing: 1) nearly 60 new LED recessed lights 2) A Home Integration Kit to connect our GoalZero generator to our home circuit breaker He's professional and very trustworthy. read more

Emil came to us highly recommended from our GC whom we have a lot of trust in. Emil was responsible for redoing all the electrical work in our kitchen remodel which included adding canned lighting, under cabinet lighting, relocating 30amp oven power, adding new GFCI circuits and running some accent lighting as well. What started out as a small project grew in size once we were advised we needed to upgrade our entire panel to be within code. Uggh! We felt we were in good hands as Emil presented us a clear plan of attack and his pricing was reasonable. We decided to move forward with Emil. Emil was outstanding to work with. As others have noted below he was professional, worked collaboratively with the GC, responsive with great communication skills, worked neatly and kept everything safe as he worked in stages. He was also able to pivot on a late request we had to add an EV outlet to the panel work. We could not be happier with the end result. Emil is is meticulous and it shows. We love all the lighting and attention to detail. I worked with three other electricians before and Emil was by far the best. Do yourself a favor and just hire Emil. As I said, you'll be in good hands. Thank you Emil! It was a pleasure. read more

Although my profile says I am in Miami, FL, I also live in Oakland, CA and got very lucky to have met Emil. My husband and I bought a condo on Lake Merritt and did a complete tear out and renovation - from floor to ceiling and everything in-between. Emil has made our home look just amazing (see some of the photos he has posted on his site of our kitchen). He is patient, creative, reliable and honest. He has a positive spirit and I felt like he cared about our home as much as if it were his own. He is now a certified Lutron technician so if you are also looking for someone to help program your lights and window shades, he's your guy. Thank you Emil for an excellent job. read more

Had a number of electrical problems after getting some housework done. Also had a light switch box I had worked on (poorly) which I wanted evaluated for safety. Emil had an opening next day and evaluated all of them and fixed everything except for a few issues outside his area (one related to the furnace and one relating to a very high ceiling). In addition, he noticed and offered to fix an unsightly power cord attached to our security system controller. I took him up on the offer and am thrilled with the result. In all he fixed and replaced 3 light switches, repaired power to a wall that had none, and re-wired the security system to hide the power cord. He also completely rewired the light switch box. Took him 90 minutes total. Most importantly to me, he clearly knew what he was doing and was upfront about costs and what he could and could not repair. Will definitely call on him again when the need arises. read more

Emil, came out same day to replace a broken light switch in my office, very efficient and knowledgeable, really great experience.

Emil was a true pleasure to work with. I had an EV charger that needed to be installed and run through multiple walls, so it was a bit complicated. From the initial estimate over the phone I knew he was skillful and experienced, far more interested in the work and what I needed vs how much he was going to charge me. His communication was wonderful, he showed up right on time for our appointment, he's extremely positive and has a 'can do' attitude despite any obstacles throw his way. His work is precise, his work area is cleaned up afterwards so that you barely know that he was there. His prices are extremely reasonable and overall, just a bright and warm person with masterful skill. read more

I definitely recommend them for any electrical work. read more
