I have a new electrician ! Local . Great service . On time . Fair pricing . I have plenty of work coming up . See you soon.

Purchasing a new home last Fall 2016 there were several projects I wanted done. Jim and his team were professional and efficient in installing Ethernet in every room along with installing light fixtures inside each bedroom. Jim came by initially to inspect the project needs and began the project within a week. Due to neighbors above me and the ceilings having cement separating the condo levels we had to settle on visible electric covers for the ceiling light fixtures. These ran along the ceiling and then down the side of each bedroom wall. I wanted the wiring along the wall to be hidden so Lightwave made sure this was done also within a week. I am very pleased with Lightwave's work along with their affordability. I highly recommend them. Thanks Lightwave! read more

I have an older 1950's home that I'm working on myself and hiring help when needed. Decided to have the overhead power lines buried to the house so they don't hang off the house. Hired Lightwave to put in the new meter base and prep everything so Dominion Power can bury the line and connect it to the house. Lightwave was quick to come out and gave me a fair estimate for their services faster than any of the other electricians that came to see the job. Work was done quickly and inspector came out just as they were finishing their work so everything was fast and efficient! Would definitely use them for other electrical services I know I will need in the future with my projects. read more

Mario @ Lightwave is an amazing master electrician. I've enlisted Lightwave services for a variety of tasks and they were awesome every time. Highly recommended. read more

Lightwave was the only company I reached out to that fired off a quote immediately, was fairly priced and came out within 48 hours. I didn't need the speed but I love efficiency and Barb was on top of it. Mario and James showed up on time, knew exactly what I wanted done and were working within minutes. Great communication and very professional, they also checked into an issue with our ceiling fan and thoroughly explained how they would fix that issue as well. Within an hour I had a new deticated circuit for my garage ac and Lightsource has a new customer for my electrical needs. read more

They installed a dedicated circuit for my fireplace in my living room. Excellent service. Fast, friendly and inexpensive. I'll definitely use them again! read more

Absolutely the best Electricians I've ever had the pleasure hiring and/or working with. My profession requires that I maintain a literal data center in my home complete with specialized cooling, extra heavy load circuits, and extensive use of Ethernet and Wi-Fi. We were moving into a new home and we had only the weekend to move the entire household (I have 4 kids under 6) along with all of my specialized equipment. Lightwave ran fresh Ethernet for two Wi-Fi Access points and converted a 220v/30amp circuit for a dryer into a 125v/30amp circuit for my servers in record time and the work was of the highest quality on Friday afternoon. Everything was perfect until the primary HVAC system for the entire floor went belly up so the trusty stand-by window unit came out to cool things down. Plugging that window unit in, combined with the 1000BTU unit already running where the servers were, combined with workstations, printers, and lights proved to be more than the floor was designed to handle. Panic! My wife & I both work from home with complete dependency on my servers and our internet connectivity to do our respective jobs. Ta-Da! Lightwave to the rescue! The next day saw a new 20amp circuit dedicated to the window A/C unit and all of the walls were patched, Ethernet & Fibre were dressed and covered, they even helped seal the vents for the A/C unit and moved my heavy color LaserJet printer into position for me (I'm disabled). Talk about going above & beyond and at prices that totally worked with our (by this time) heavily overtaxed budget. I can't possibly say enough good things about Lightwave, they are truly the best of the best and they are the ONLY electricians that I'll use personally and professionally from now on. read more

Lightwave provided absolutely top-notch service at extremely competitive prices. They were responsive to my questions before the appointment and did the job exactly as requested. As an added bonus, the team gave me a much needed hand with a minor home improvement project while they were in the middle of the job. High-quality service, and all-around nice guys to boot! This is now my go-to company for electric work. Thanks! read more

Third time I have needed their services. Jeff and Sam arrived right on time and never stopped. They covered my counter tops in prep for installing under counter lights. Jeff had recommended this type of closet for lighting and I am very pleased. I can see in all the corners. They installed a plug in my hall closet for the Dyson which is so convenient. Jeff figured out our front yard light needed a new sensor and that was replaced. I also had a motion light installed over the garage. Sam and Jeff are super and very efficient. Highly recommend! read more

Cant speak highly enough about Jim, Barb and the Lightwave team. Jim updated our electrical panel and put in a generator outlet. He made us comfortable throughout the entire process. Outstanding support, great pricing and top notch service! They have guaranteed our service on future electrical projects. (side note: Jim offered to walk our dog when we were at work for the day they were changing out the panel. Did not need to offer it but shows how much they care about their customers. You just don't get service providers like Jim and Barb anymore...) read more

Jim and Barb are a great team! Barb is very responsive in comuncation! Jim was actually the one who did the job. Jim has 36 years of experience. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. He got the job done and also taught me something along the way. Their price is reasonable, and I would definitely call them again for future business! read more

Tech come by the house to give an estimate on a couple different jobs. The gentleman was kind and told me to except an email with the estimate cost & details on his way out. Over a week later and no estimate as promised, so I decided to call them for a follow up. The lady on the phone seemed very caring assuring me she will get the estimate to me by noon. Days later and still nothing. At this point it's clear that they don't take professionalism seriously, nor can their word be trusted. read more

Excellent, responsive service...was very pleased to use Lightwave for a quick turnaround on a light installation. Here we are, during peak construction season in a robust local economy, and Lightwave was able to get my light installed the very next day. Jim showed up, having all the tools needed to get the job done right, first-time. Reasonable prices, too. Top-shelf and I do recommend this company. This is how all contractors should do their work: reliable, competent, friendly, and cost-competitive. read more

When Lightwave actually showed up to do work, the work they did was good - but they no-showed me three times and didn't make any attempt to reschedule any of those times. Some of those times I got very short notice (hour before) and once I got no notice at all. Communication was inexcusably bad. I didn't even get the bill for the services I did receive for a month. Too bad. read more

Lightwave provided very good quality of services , no matter it's big or small. I'm impressed by their reasonable pricing and quality of work. The electricians were polite and nice and even helped me replace two bulbs without extra charge. This is definitely the electrical service company I would recommend to my friends. read more

With all the great reviews I was hopeful that this would be the electrical company that I chose to go with, however with the constant non follow up by them, untrue electrical information given and me chasing over them to get answers I would say not. read more

Excellent service n great job the Guys did. They did the instigation in less than half hour and the price was great. I'd highly recommend this company. read more

So pleased to have the electricians show up on time. They gave me a couple choices for my needs, helped me understand the differences, and worked very efficiently. They tarped the work area and kept everything really clean, and we are DELIGHTED with our new kitchen lighting! A much-needed upgrade, and such a pleasure to work with such pleasant, capable professionals! read more

This store did a very great job!!! 1. They not only fix the issues for me but also show me how to fix some simple issues by myself without any charge. 2. In addition, Jim is working supper fast so that all the issues are fixed within one hour. I will definitely work with them in the future. read more

I had an issue that I couldn't figure out and Brad came the same day to isolate the reason. It was very nice dealing with Brad and I will use Lightwave Services for all my future electric projects! Thanks guys! read more

I reached out to Barb via text message for an estimate on some outlet work, and was scheduled the next morning. The price was right and the electrician, Sam, was super friendly and knowledgeable. I requested another quote for some more work with a light fixture and that estimate was also great! I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thank you Sam and Barb! read more

I had a shortage in my bathroom light. I would turn on the light and get in the shower and sometimes the lights would go out. My exhaust fans in my bathroom were also very loud, I think they were still the original fans from 1980s. I called Lightwave Services and we set up an appointment for Saturday. Jim came and fixed my bathroom light, just the switch needed to be replaced. He needed to look at my exhaust fans and he set up another appointment for the next Monday. Brandon came and changed out my exhaust fans in both bathrooms and he also changed out all my light switches in my bathroom so now they are all white switches. Lightwave Services charged me a good price and Jim, Brandon, and Barb were very nice. read more

I recently used them to install a 14-50 NEMA outlet in my garage for my Tesla. The line was close to 50 feet since my breaker box is on the other side of my house. Their quote was by far the lowest out of all the ones I gathered so I decided to try them out. I was wary about the work quality due to the large price difference but everything went great! Fairfax county stopped by to check the work afterwards and there were no issues. I highly highly recommend Lightwave Services! read more

I am very pleased with the service provided from Lightwave services. Booking a time to come out was simple and booked directly through yelp. Barb was helpful and upfront about pricing. Technician Kevin arrived on time and explained the scope of work. I was having a dedicated breaker run for an over head microwave I was installing. Kevin and his partner were pleasant and explained the details of what they were doing and answered questions I had about installing my microwave. They cleaned up afterward and even dealt with my nosey dogs inspecting their work. The pricing was extremely reasonable, I would even say low for the work done. I will be happy to recommend to friends and family and I will be calling for their services in the future for other projects both around my house and business. Thank you. read more

After a hot water heater replacement the breaker wouldnt set. No hot water. Called and got scheduled for the first visit the next morning. They had to research and buy the replacement breaker that fit my old panel. He was at my home at 7:30 am with the new breaker and it was fixed in 15 minutes and a reasonable price. Will definitely call again for electrical problems. Thanks! read more

Safety, quality, fair prices and timely customer service. Easy to see why Lightwave earns 5 star ratings.

I'm very happy with my decision to go with Lightwave for running power, lights, coax and ethernet throughout my townhouse. Jim and Barb are both very friendly, easy to work with and responded promptly over email to go over work details. The installation was professionally and quickly done. After the cleanup and drywall repair (Giovanni is excellent!) my wife couldn't tell where the various cuts were made in the wall. Jim's a master electrician and I'd recommend Lightwave for any electrical needs. read more

Jim installed a motion detector switch to an existing patio light. He arrived on time, did the work professionally and at the agreed upon price. Went above and beyond doing additional minor repairs without nickel and diming me on small parts like outlet covers. He is also very personable. We will use him again! read more

What a breath of fresh air. Jim and Barb are amazing, fair, and kind people. This company is what quality American customer service was all about, and which is now so hard to find. I will not be looking anywhere else for electrician work so long as they are open for business. You've gained a customer for life. Thanks, Lightwave. read more

I highly recommend Lightwave!! I am so happy to have found them. They have done electrical work at my house on 2 occasions so far, and have been fantastic! They are easy to schedule, arrived on time, and completed the work in a professional and thorough manner. They are extremely knowledgeable and efficient. I have had ceiling fans installed, a kitchen light, dining room light, 2 hallway lights and an exterior light replaced, as well as 2 outlets installed. They did a wonderful job on all of these! I will definitely use them again read more

I'm very impressed! Reasonable price, on-line estimate, on-time, clean, quick, friendly, professional, easy payment option, and I really like the new recessed lighting in my kitchen. I highly recommend Lightwave Services! read more

Absolutely and TOTALLY pleased with their work! It was easy to get an estimate, schedule the work, and the charge was exactly what was quoted in the estimate. Abraham was prompt and a courteous young man who performed both jobs with skill and efficiency. I most certainly recommend them and they are now my "go to" for electrical needs. read more

Lightwave's electricians performed an evaluation of our electrical panel some corrosion. They were on time are extremely knowledgeable and reliable. They performed a complete and thorough evaluation of the panel. They determined that the cause of the corrosion was no longer an issue because the corrosion was minor and most likely a result of a water drip from the toilet on the floor above. The corrosion was not enough to compromise or reduce the performance of the panel together with the panels age it isn't necessary to replace the panel. We were relieved! Thank you for being professional and honest! Lightwave is a reputable company. We will be referring them to all our friends, colleagues and fellow Yelpers. read more

came out quickly to fix a few issues that came up during a home inspection while selling our house. Electrician was curtious, friendly, did the job quickly and at a very reasonable cost. Will use them again. read more

I had Lightwave install a new whole house fan and replace a kitchen exhaust fan. They were quick, efficient, on-time and did the job very professionally. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent service, fast, on-time, reasonably priced, and absolutely the best quality. Jim Shaffer, master electrician, is very friendly and professional, but above all is brilliant and innovative. I had a situation that would have required extensive scaffolding and super tall ladders just to get to my ceiling light fixture, but within minutes Jim was able to figure in his head a clever scaffold design, built it in few minutes and had the whole job done perfectly in minutes! Highly recommended. read more

Today Jim came in and installed a new exhaust fan in our bath. He installed the fan in an hour and the job was neat. I would recommend Lightwave services. read more

Lightwave services initially arrived late in installing my ceiling fans. They apologized for the inconvenience and installed my fans in a professional manner. I was very pleased with their work. read more

Barb is fantastic. She provided great advice and be very honest to me the whole time.

I purchased 2 ceiling fans from Costco and now had to find a quality/qualified electrical co..to install said fans. Got quotes from multiple companies using the Yelp service and was contacted promptly by Lightwave Services. The price quoted for 2 ceiling fans was very competitive and they could come out quickly, too. On day of install, 2 guys from the co. showed up on time and were very courteous and professional. They quickly installed both fans, showed me how they worked and they were done. They cleaned up after the job and left the area as it was before they arrived. They did a great job and I gave them both a $20 tip before they left. Good workers, good co., I will hire again if I need a fan in the 3rd bedroom! read more
