I had a big Knob and Tube project which I had to finish in a timely manner. KB Electric scheduled it in less than a week and were very flexible. They sent a team that kept the house clean and at the end of each day I couldn't tell they were here. Egan manages the work and was very nice, explained his work and you could see he knows what he is doing. Anything else I asked him to do he was very happy to help and finish. Highly recommended!!!! read more

Very disappointed. The young journeyman electrician was clearly clueless and took tremendous amount of time to work in the home. He made a complete mess of 2 parallel mounted 3 way switches. Keith, the owner of KB Charged a fortune arguing it was based on time regardless the 4th switches did not work I learned the switches were wired entirely wrong by KB's crew. One entire 3way circuit lighting my 2nd floor hallway would not turn on from either location. On 2nd 3 way circuit, only one switch location worked, but only if the other location with was in the on position. When called back, owner refused to correct or refund money. Was unconscionably arrogant. Refused to offer to return to correct the damaged work. Clearly there is no supervision of KB's on site crews and no sense of ownership of poor workmanship and lack of skills. Finally the arrogance and complete lack of any sense of responsibility or consideration of the client. Greenway Electric came and explained the disaster that was left by KB and in short order corrected KB's mess. All switches and lights work fine now thanks to Nick from Greenway Electric, I would strongly discourage hiring KB based on technical incompetence, imperious attitude and complete lack of professional service mindset or personal integrity. Do not call KB. Call an electrician that supervises their crews or better yet where the licensed owner comes on site and supervises and stands behind their work. read more

What a pleasure to deal with this company. We needed hardwired smoke detectors replaced in our townhouse, and wanted a dimmer & GFI replaced in the kitchen. I called KB at 8 am and spoke to Joe who asked for details and offered to send someone the next morning. He gave me a reasonable price range and we set up the appointment. About 10 mins later I got a call offering to send someone within the hour. As I had the day off, I agreed and in 30 mins, Ian showed up. He was quick, knowledgeable, neat and polite. He finished everything in less than 45 mins, and billed me less than the price I had expected. If only all companies were such professionals... read more

I've used KB electrics services on several different occasions. Each time it was a very pleasant experience. It's hard to get a good electrician around where I'm at. They also have a great apprenticeship program which is big for me. The electrician assigned to my home was even teaching me stuff while he was training the apprentice! I will definitely be using these guys in the future. The issues they repaired in my home were non functioning outlets and light fixtures. I've never had to call twice for the same issue. Well worth the money. read more

I have always use KB Electric when making upgrades to my home. They are always professional, on time, cost effective, and leave my home clean! I recently had some work done. Otas, the technician, did an awesome job! read more

Very, very happy with KB Electric. They were professional and cordial on the phone. They showed up on time. They made a couple of suggestions about my job that worked better than i first thought. They finished swiftly and cleaned up when they were leaving. Both Frank and Michael were polite, professional, efficient and personable. They did a great job installing an outdoor floodlight. I will definitely be contacting them for my next job. read more

I can't say enough about Rich at KB Electric! We had no lights in several parts of the home. I called KB and they were able to get me an appointment in a timely manner. The technician Rich, came out to our home on Grove Street in Montclair and assessed the problem right away. He was polite, professional and considerate to my mom (who has Alzheimer's). Very, very pleased with this company! read more

Try getting someone to come to my house for a a faulty wires in a socket-- half the house was out of power--(some never called me back -)-- called In -line -- sent Franklin over -- good job fixed it - reasonable price -- will use them again A++++ read more

I will not recommend this company. Here is what transpired. It appears that this company is extremely busy. I spoke to their frontline rep and managed to get an appointment. (Which was two week later) Fast forward - 5 days before my appointment, one of their reps calls me and left me a message saying "Hey R, great news we have availability tomorrow". Due to my work schedule and short noticed I couldn't agree to this proposed appointment. Now, the next day, another rep left a message to call them back. I called and was told "I'm sorry but we have to cancel your appointment" my response was "why"..... there response was "we no longer offer service on this day" So I asked, "when is the next available date?" Hoping and expecting something before my appointment date. NOPE I'll have to wait another two weeks for someone to come (potentially a month to wait for them to come by) So I barked at them because of the following: 1- I patiently waited almost two weeks for service 2- short noticed on there end for letting me know that they no longer offer service on the date of my appointment. (So then why booked me for this date) 4- they also tried to make it seem that we never had an agreed appointment for this date (if we didn't have a scheduled appointment, then why are you calling me rescheduled - which didn't make sense to me) 3- their failure to accommodate for there mistake (the best they offered was two weeks from now) 4- Manager didn't give F about this problem (with an attitude) I can't recommend a company who don't care about their customers. They may have experience guys who do the work well but there are other companies that have the same Money can be spent somewhere else where they care and appreciate the customers. read more

KB Electric is amazing. We purchased an old home and learned (after the closing) that it still had some knob and tube wiring - and in fact, it was the team at KB Electric who actually discovered it, when we'd brought them in to do some other work. And from that moment on, we knew we were in the hands of true professionals. Joe and Ricky were in our home for five full days, thoughtfully and carefully removing all the old wiring - while at the same time, we were still in the house, needing to work - and so they made sure to work with our schedules, and in fact, were so good, we hardly noticed the work happening! They also answered ALL of my questions, and were even able to add in some extra work like replacing the under cabinet lights in the kitchen with new versions, even though that work wasn't originally scoped. They were also friendly, polite, respectful (they even laughed at my jokes and Joe told a few of his own!), and kept us updated throughout the whole process. It felt like we had true partners in this process, who were equally focused on a high-quality result. And Alicia, in the office, is phenomenal. She also answered all my questions (can you tell I'm a new homeowner?), and was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and a true joy with whom to work. Hand's down, KB Electric is our "forever" electric company, and I'd trust them with any and all future work. The only downside is that once the work is done, we don't get to see them again! :-) HIGHLY RECOMMEND. read more

Henry and his partner were awesome, the installation is exactly what we wanted and it turned out great, even patching the holes that were made initially. I did subtract a star for the organization to get them out here. I went through 4 different contracts before there was one i could sign, the office staff consistently got wrong the # of lights, switches, even my name and address in the paperwork ahead of the appointment. This was a relatively simple job, and it took over a dozen emails to get this right. Ultimately, so happy with the finished product, but the contract process could deter some people read more

Needed a number of things done to get the house ready to sell. Joe and Ricky did a great job. Professional, friendly service. Thank you.

They COME when you call. Big plus. Knowledgeable technician affordable pricing. Ask for hector THE BEST!!

Henrry did a great job for us with our outdoor floodlights and indoor repairs. Everything was well explained. This was our 1st time trying KB and we're going to use them again. read more

Hector was amazing - he came, completed to job so well, so professionally! Additionally, the appointment scheduling was so helpful & fast! Price point was spot on.... tysm KBE. read more

Wow...this company is amazing! I called before 11am for a kitchen outlet repair. Joe and Ricky showed up at 1130am, finished everything including fixing my doorbell and troubleshooting a couple other issues I have around the house by 1230pm. Best part...I didn't get ripped off! They were upfront with the cost and hourly rate and how long they would take. They didn't try to nickel and dime me or try to take the longest route to fix the problem. Very honest and competent. This is what you call a Professional. I just want to acknowledge them for such a great job and being amazing people. Would recommend them and will use them again in the future. read more

I reached out to KB about a GFCI that was tripping. Henry came out within 2 days and addressed the issue quickly. Not only that he explained what and why he was doing it as well as giving me options. I had another issue that i just remembered and Henry was happy to take a look at it. This was an issue i was told by another electrician could not be fixed. Henry diagnosed the issue immediately and fixed it within the hour. I will be asking for Henry anytime i have an issue. Also the price was very reasonable. Also to add, he wore a mask and cleaned up behind himself. Thanks Henry!!! read more

KB is great! I have had them do work several times. Not only do they respond to your calls but very knowledgeable and can fix any electrical issue you are experiencing. They fixed all my electrical problems in my old house. read more

Really screwed me over. Left me waiting twice and called late to say they couldn't make it. Not impressed at all. WIll never call them again. Found a much nicer, more professional electrician who did the job quickly and efficiently and came when they said they would. read more

Starting with the communication from their office staff, I was able to get a response immediately. Very courteous and helpful and informative. I had Joe and Darwin arrive as promised to install a new outlet on my hot tub. I am really happy with the " pay attention to details" work they did and how they left the area cleaner than they arrived. I've used their services twice and will use them again if needed. read more

Great service. Fixed our old problems in less than a day. Reasonable prices. Staff was safe w masks due to Covid. Arrived on time. And most importantly addressed our electrical issues and no problems since!! read more

Frank and his team came by and installed waffle lights, switches, receptacles and installed a new light fixture in our house. Service was too notch and they were communicative and wanted to clarify everything we wanted. Seamless experience. Would def recommend! read more

Henry from KB was quick, efficient and friendly. Needed repair of fan in basement bathroom that had stopped. He checked it, went out to get a new one and was done 5 minutes after he returned. he even cleaned the old cover that was coated in dust. Price was very reasonable too. read more

My wife and I have been looking for a quality electrician to do some work in our old colonial home. We had contacted one company recommended to us by our realtor- the company didn't seem at all interested in the work and it seemed like a very small operation. Another electrician was referred to us who ghosted us after we asked him for his license number. We had seen KB Electric vans all over town and we had also heard they were the most expensive. However, after working with KB Electric, I will continue to work with them for all my electrical needs and would recommend them to anyone. From the first phone call, they were professional, courteous, friendly, and attentive. The office manager was extremely personable and helpful in securing time for the estimator to come out and assess the scope of the project. Our estimator was very knowledgeable and relatable. We were sent an email with an estimate the next day and we were contacted about a time for the team to complete the work within a 48 hours. The team that worked on our home was phenomenal. Henrry, Mike, and Chris were friendly, professional, and I enjoyed our interactions. Everything felt very comfortable and I felt that I was well taken care of. The guys explained everything they were doing, consulted me before drilling any holes, were honest, and cleaned up after themselves when the job was done. As for the price- I had consulted on their estimate with my father, who is an architect and works with electricians on his projects, and he felt the prices were very fair. I am extremely satisfied with KB Electric and look forward to our next project together! read more

I don't think your being in business for 20 years is even relevant to this conversation. Actually, it makes you look even sadder that you couldn't figure out what the problem was. Let me clarify and reiterate a few things here: 1)      My HVAC system was installed 7 years ago. A: so you think that it's reasonable for me to call the A/C guys up after all this time to demand that they fix the issue for free, but you don't think it's reasonable for me to expect even a discount on your "service call" charge when you send me someone who doesn't know what on earth he's doing? B: if my A/C company didn't do the work correctly the first time, why in the world would I want them to come back to do the work again a 2nd time? C: are you basically saying that you are incapable of fixing a bad wiring job and only able to work on new construction? If that's the case, you're working in the wrong neighborhood. 2)      The electrician who I hired after you was in NO way associated with the people who installed my HVAC system. Let me point out that he did not reach into his bag of excuses to explain to me that only the original installers of my HVAC could fix my problem. He simply fixed it. How far back does your lame excuse go by the way? If my knob and tube wiring that was installed in 1925 goes south, do you ask your customers to contact the original installer to fix the problem too? 3)      You say that your technician "tested multiple wire runs" and "the readings were inconclusive". Let me translate this gibberish. The electrician you sent to my house (who looked like this was his first job out of school btw) spent 20 minutes probing the wiring with a device I could have bought at Home Depot and confirmed to me that my thermostat was broken. Thank you, but I already knew that. Sorry, but when I hired a "20 years in the business electrician" I was expecting him to bring some knowledge with him along with his gadgets. The only reason he stayed a full hour was because if you were going to make me spend $135 for nothing, I might as well try to put him to work. The other 40 minutes of his time was spent diagnosing other electrical questions I had that had nothing to do with what you were hired for. Everyone makes mistakes, everyone has a first job, and I'm not expecting you to know how to complete every job that you're given. But what's really disappointing is that you can't own it when you've made a mistake and you continue to double down on your bad stories. Be fair and reasonable to your customers and you keep them for life. It's not that complicated. read more

Just had an appointment with Darwin and Nick and they were terrific! Called to let me know they were on their way over and showed up on time, at the beginning of the appointment window. They split a line to create two GFCI outlets, and also installed a full-home surge protector. They were efficient, neat, and worked without a lot of noise (no small thing...I have had folks working in my house yelling from the basement to the first floor and also people who created great messes as they worked). they patiently explained their work as well. I would highly recommend them and K B. read more

Henry and Mike were very professional and efficient in helping to install my Ring doorbell. Would highly recommend KB Electric

This is the third time we've used KB and we are always happy. Hennry was excellent and took care of all 4 different things we needed fixed.

Disappointed...I had a kitchen light fixture replaced. I checked Home Depot before he went to get my replacement light and they had six in stock. However, he claimed they didn't have any so he got something similar that he preferred. The only problem is that Home Depot didn't sell the light he purchased in the store-only online. I believe, the rep gave me something he already had in his truck, did not go to Home Depot, yet charged me $125 for an hour to/from Home Depot. I was also charged $100 for parts when the light fixture he gave me only cost $43. I received a call back to my initial email to them but it would cost me another $125 service call fee in order for me to get what I asked for to begin with. I will not use them again! read more

Very professional service from start to finish; from accommodating receptionist who squeezed me into their very busy schedule, to the very knowledgeable technician Henry who clearly explained the causes and solutions to my circuit breaker problems. Henry's work was thorough, neat, quick, and clean; he clearly takes pride in his work. read more

Romero and Chris installed three new lights, a new thermostat, and upgraded outlets in our house that was built in 1897. Our wiring is old and tricky. I was impressed by how they were able to move a ceiling light and install a new hallway sconce with cutting the tiniest holes to route the new wiring. I really appreciated Romero's eye for detail, workmanship, and excellent communication every step of the way. read more

We moved into our home last summer and hired a different company to remove knob & tube. Based on today's visit by Ramiro @ KB Electric we should have hired KB Electric. Ramiro solved our issue in a matter of minutes and provided a clear explanation of what had gone wrong (wear and tear), and took steps to make sure that we didn't run into a similar issue in the future. Ramiro was forthcoming in offering clear, indispensable advice and, additionally, was very nice! He arrived wearing a mask and took all the appropriate safety precautions. Ramiro provided absolutely stellar service, and he and KB Electric will absolutely be the first people we call in the future when we run into electrical issues. There's a reason that this company is rated so highly. Thank you, Ramiro! read more

Henry came into our home and made necessary repairs to our outdoor outlet. He was very professional and I would definitely use KB Electric again! read more

We've used KB for a number of projects around the house. They are knowledgeable, efficient and cost effective. We just had under cabinet lighting go out and they were available next day to help us with our issue. Henry came in and diagnosed the issue (and also fixed a second light that had not worked since we bought the house). Quick trip to Home Depot, and now we have two working lights in slightly more than an hour of work time. As always, great service. read more

Called the office and they were so accommodating with the scheduling. Super professional! Henry came to service my new home and did a fantastic job. He not only performed an inspection but he also made on the spot fixes and cleaned up after ! He also provided thoughtful recommendations for future work on the house. read more

I had no heat or electricity in half my house on Sunday. Richie came within an hour of my call Monday morning, diagnozed the problem, and fixed it. I would recommend them to my neighbors. read more

I asked for an estimate to install my ring doorbell and flood lights and was told it would be 1-2.5 hours max. I explained the house was old, did my research and got a WiFi range extender like suggested and used this company from a recommendation from the citizens of Bloomfield group. The installation was as estimated and the two electricians were knowledgeable but they couldn't get it to work consistently so they had to contact the help line and what followed was the electrician's saying it's not my work and ring was well it's not our product so it took another 2 or so hours to finally get it to work. And the bill for this was $400 more than the estimate. I wanted a professional to get this done the right way but I should not have to pay for you needing help from customer service. And the sad part is that it all came down to them flipping off the breaker for a full minute and switching it back on. My heart is sad right now. read more

I'll use KB every time. Frank came to install an outlet and a doorbell. He also fixed a bad switch and removed an old mysterious backyard wire. He did all the work quickly. He was friendly and explained what he was doing. Great work, fair price. read more

Ramiro and Daniel were at our home all day replacing 3 light fixtures, installing several new toggle switches and 2 sets of smart switches throughout our home. They did an amazing job especially given all of the old original 1920s wiring which they fixed and made sure was to code. They were extremely professional and communicative - explaining things along the way. They also did a very thorough cleaning of their workspaces. We trust KB for all of our electrical work in our home. read more

That are Ok..no shoe protection. But fixed the issues. Charged for 1.75 hrs but worked only 1.5 hrs.
