I was extremely satisfied with my end-to-end experience with Merv Electric. I had, what I would consider, a large project to modernize a 30-year old, 6000+ sq ft home. We wanted to: 1) wire a new home theater with a 7.2 configuration, 2) add 7 wall mounted TV locations throughout the house, 3) hard wire smoke detectors up to current code, 4) network a home office, 5) neatly organize the central networking cabinet and 5) new lines out to the utility. At the last minute, we also decided to add new can lights to 3 of our bedrooms. Pasha and his team took care of everything and I would hire them again in a heartbeat! As others have noted, when you call, you get a prompt response from an electrician. Pasha came over, met with me to discuss the details, and sent me an itemized estimate with detailed descriptions. This was great because it ensured we were aligned on the scope. For a project with as many action items as mine, this was extremely useful. Once we were able to come to an agreement on the scope, price, and materials I would provide, he was able to get me on the schedule. The work was phenomenal. They were able to run all the wiring through the attic to each of the locations. Some of it was a bit tricky because of the complex roof structure with lots of cables, but they were still able to make all the runs clean end-to-end. They ran new networking, new speaker wires, and new power runs separately to minimize interference. In retrospect, I valued the conversations about which materials (e.g. smoke detectors, lights, networking cabinet hardware, etc.) would be better for me to provide instead of Pasha picking them out for me. These are often up to personal taste and preferences, so it not only reduced cost, but it also made it easier for me to get what I wanted. I was also very particular about what I was expecting. I had a vision of what I wanted everything to look like once it was done. In addition, the existing low-voltage wiring in the house was a mess (some through the attic, some through the crawlspace, it was a maze...) and I definitely was looking for something much better. Pasha communicated well, providing status updates and discussed with me how they were handling particularly challenging runs. Pasha also responded well to questions and feedback and started to anticipate my questions and adjusted his execution plan according. Pasha and his whole team definitely delivered! They were hard working, detail-oriented, and delivered great customer service, which was visible every step of the way. If you're looking for a solid electrician, I think you'd be hard pressed to find one better than Pasha and his team! read more

Merv Electric did great work in our house. We had some specific requests for moving electrical outlets and adding a dedicated line in our kitchen. Their work addressed our requests to a T. Though they are not the least expensive option, the quality of their work is worth it. I have full confidence in the work that they do read more

I pinged Merv via their webform at 9:55pm last night regarding a GFI that kept tripping taking out numerous outlets. less than 10min later I got a text saying one of their schedulers would contact me shortly. At 8am I was pinged again asking if today at 4pm worked (it did) and has an estimate for parts & labor (very reasonable - cheaper than most just to come out). Electrician arrived (Pasha?) slightly early, masked and gloved. He replaced the GFI, but it kept tripping. 45min of detective work later, he identified the faulty outlet outside (original from 1987, so not weather resistant resulting in oxidation of the outlet) and replaced that too with an up-to-code outlet. for 1hr of work, and replacing 2 outlets (one with weather shield too), the overall cost was quite reasonable. And all that given next day service. Well done Merv Electric! would definitely recommend. read more

Some reasons why I chose Merv over other electricians: - when I called an electrician picked up and scheduled an estimate with me right away instead of having to speak to a scheduler like other big companies - they arrived promptly and didn't try to up sell me. - the price quoted was fair - the electrician worked with me to figure out an innovative solution to my issue when other places recommended I more expensive solution - the electrician talked me through the process and educated me as he worked read more

I had someone from Merv come out to assess a fridge that was tripping the circuit breaker. He was prompt and polite, but told me to try the fridge on another outlet and see what happens - either there is an outlet problem or a breaker problem. It was $275 for him to tell me that. 3 days later, I call back to update him on what happened and cannot get in touch with him after email, voicemail, and the website is down. Not sure what's going on but I feel like it's fairly pricey and poor customer service. read more

Do not EVER use Merv Electric. I have had a horrible experience with this company. I hired them to install an HDMI cable and power through the wall and ceiling, to wire up my projector. I supplied a stock 50 ft. HDMI cable, bought from Home Depot. Such long HDMI cables are unidirectional, with one end meant to go into the TV or projector, and the other end to the source. The cable was clearly marked in such a way. He put the cable in the wrong way. I did not notice until after I had paid him, and paid a painter to come and patch my walls - I only noticed when I tried to hook up my projector. At that point, I messaged him. This was the sum total of my messages: "Hi, you installed my HDMI cable the wrong way. As an electrician you should've known this. I spent $600+ on you plus more in painting And now the whole thing has to be redone I'm extremely pissed, it's your job to know when an HDMI cable is unidirectional." I also left him a vm. I was understandably upset, but my language was not rude. He responded with this: "Hi Pankaj Today is Saturday and calling me us 3 times and leaving voicemail after voicemail what do you think Are we you employee or your slave? I installed the HDMI CABLE you brought In electrical licensing exam it doesn't say or ask anything about HDMI CABLE If you know that much or care that much you should of mentioned that I spent way to much to do a nice job for you still you complain ? Watch your mouth man you can be client but you cannot treat us like shit look at you cable still the label should be there tv site to tv" Then he called me, whereupon he proceeded to cuss me out, including calling me "motherf*****". This was not just unprofessional and rude, it was completely uncalled for. Mistakes happen, it is understandable. But for an electrician to take on this job, they should do the job right, or make it right after the fact. Merv Electric clearly cannot do either. Please do not hire this company. read more

Merv Electric - single line review: Efficient, quick and great quality work for reasonable rates. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

Pasha was courteous and very very prompt. He showed up in a mask and fixed the problem in no time. Loved the experience! Totally recommend Merv Electric! read more

Called Merv Electric to install common wire to power my Nest thermostat. They came off as confident and voiced to me what needed to be done. Arrived early and got the job done quickly. However, after he left I discovered that the thermostat was still not getting power. I promptly called to ask about the work and if he could come back by to take another look. The response was almost immediately defensive and argumentative. In the end, I learned that low voltage HVAC-related installs are better left to a HVAC tech. However, I wish Merv Electric had been more clear about what they could and could not do...money wasted on my end. read more

Great customer service! They responded very quickly to a last-minute request and gave an estimate over the phone that seemed right in line with others we had received. Some unexpected construction issues meant we couldn't have him do the work he had come out for. He was wonderfully understanding and his communication during booking the appointment and for scheduling was great. We plan to bring him out again when ready! read more

Pasha replaced and updated the panel in our home when we added a new addition. His price was the best I found after calling a number of electricians. He was courteous and professional. He fit us into his busy schedule and even finished the job on a weekend to make sure we completed sooner. He's even stopped by a number of times since to evaluate a couple electrical issues we had during our kitchen remodel. He saved us money when we thought we needed to replace a wire. He found the wire was fine and that an outlet simply needed to be cleaned up inside. We trust his opinion and pricing over other electricians we consulted. Highly recommend Merv electric for new or replacing old electrical work. read more

Were first to respond, were able to come out sooner than I thought, knew just what to do, and got it done. It was really expensive as an hourly rate, but I was glad to get things taken care of so efficiently. read more

Pasha and co did a fantastic job installing an EV outlet in my garage. The electrical panel was in another room, but Pasha routed the wire through with minimal cut to the drywall. There was attention to details at every step. I'd definitely hire again for future projects. read more

I needed to get a 240v outlet installed ASAP and reached out to Merv Electric. They responded quickly, quoted over the phone and were able to schedule less than 48 hrs out. fair pricing and did excellent work! Will certainly use again. read more

Excellent service - prompt, efficient, incredibly knowledgeable. I would highly recommend and absolutely use their service again. We had several projects we hired him for (several outlets, EV charger) and they not only did they provide the most competitive rates, they were incredibly knowledgeable and offering multiple ways to achieve our intended result. They discussed the pros and cons of each option and ultimately gave their own recommendation (which was actually the cheaper and more cost effective method), saving us thousands of dollars. Additionally, their work was impeccable, accomplishing all projects with no damage to our dry wall, obviating the need for any dry wall repair/repainting. Highly, highly recommend. We plan to hire them again for some additional projects we have planned. read more

I saw a review about someone needing a Cadet wall heater replaced and after a blowout with mine, I called Merv Electric to help diagnose what was going on. The technician told me that it was just old and burned out but I didn't need to worry about safety by removing it. He put on some new caps and told me what I needed to do to get it fixed. He suggested a path where I didn't need to call him and another where he could do it. I appreciated the honesty and his professionalism. read more

Prompt scheduling, efficient service, and reasonable rates. Hard to argue with that.

I called this morning and left a message, not expecting to hear back today (a Sunday). Someone got back to me right away and gave me a reasonable estimate. To my pleasant surprise, he was able to come out the same day. He was polite, efficient and did a great job installing a 220v outlet for my EV charger. I would highly recommend Merv Electric! read more

Absolutely loved the response time and professionalism and expertise offered by Merv Electric. Used their webform and got a text the next business day and Alex was out later that day and fixed the issue immediately. Needed to separate a switch that had the front porch lights and interior entry way light on the same switch. Plus checking another light switch for us. Courteous, professional and quick. Highly recommend. read more

We highly recommend Merv Electric. We had them work with us on lighting solutions for our entire first floor. Scheduling was very prompt (they were able to come out for a bid within a couple days of calling and then were available for the project in a couple weeks of our accepting the bid). The bid was competitive and very fair and included all aspects of the project including some molding work, which is not traditionally done by electricians. Overall they were very professional, prompt, and exhibited high quality work. Five stars and would recommend for sure. read more

Highly recommended! We needed a couple of light fixtures replaced, and a couple of fixtures diagnosed that didn't work. From the beginning, Merv's communication with us was great. They asked questions, provided an estimate, scheduled the work (plus were super patient about our having to reschedule) and then came out and did the work as promised. A+ read more

Merv's Electric installed a Cadet wall heater and a crawl space GFCI outlet in my home. Pasha & Max did a great job assessing, planning and executing the jobs; conferring with me along the way with any questions or to give me options. After so many disappointing jobs and outcomes during a major renovation, it's so nice to have quality work, caring customer service and a positive experience. read more

We needed a big job done - installing a second electrical panel in our 60-year-old house, and then having a line from that panel extending all the way down the length of the house to the exterior (60 feet maybe) for an A/C disconnect, through the ceiling. Not an easy job. Merv Electric was great - from reaching out to have an estimate done, to getting the work done exactly as expected, to having the city come out to get the permit - it all rolled out exactly as promised. The work was done on time, permit was approved, and we are happy customers. I would gladly work with them again. read more

We had an outlet spark and knock out power to several others. I called Merv Electric on a holiday weekend, not expecting to hear back from anyone until Monday. Alex called me back within 20 minutes and was at our house in about an hour. Everything was fixed quickly for a reasonable rate. Alex even gave me a hand moving a heavy piece of furniture that I was struggling with. He was polite, nice, and very competent. Would recommend Alex and this company any day! Definitely who my family will be calling from now on. read more

These guys are fantastic! I had a problem with a heater not working in one of the rooms. These guys gave me an appointment right away for the afternoon. Showed up exactly on time, wearing a mask, wearing the shoe covers. Diagnosed the problem in about 5 mins to be because of a thermostat, had a new thermostat equipped with him. Fixed that and the heater was working right away. The best part was it only took half an hour to diagnose and finish the whole job! The price was reasonable, i had called around multiple folks and these guys did offered a price that bet most of the professional folks. And the best part was for this particular job, they guy absolutely knew what he was doing and for once did not shutdown the main power of the house or even the room etc! They guy who did the work was even funny and told me a story about that! I would absolutely first call these folks again for any electrical needs and recommend to all my friends as well. read more

This is my first time using Merv Electric. Comparing them to another company I used for another home, Merv is professional, on time, courteous, responds quickly, easy to work with, and satisfaction is there number one priority! I called them regarding my house in Bellevue, Poscha came the next day, gave me a comprehensive bid, started work within a day, and finished on time! Poscha was very patient, and answered all of my questions, you couldn't find a more respectful person. I would definately use them again!

This company so far is #1 in my book! I live across the country, and my sister who lives in Bellevue called this company (remind you she is not fluent in English), and they were so kind to her and came out to meet her needs in such a short notice. The way they provided the professional service was above and beyond! Thank you, you truly are the company with the Customer Service in mind. My sister wanted to thank you for superior service, and asked me to write this review. read more

I have worked with the owner of Merv Electric for years and I have used them on many jobs. They have done full rewires on houses for me, panel upgrades and small jobs as well. Their pricing is great and they do their best to meet your timelines and complete everything right the first time in order to pass inspections with no problems! I'm happy to refer them to home owners, investors or builders! read more

Quick response, onsite after a few hours after I called. Great service, very knowledgeable. Would use them again in the future

We had a problem with some strange noises coming out of our circuit breaker panel. We called and they were able to come out that afternoon. They looked over the panel, tightened some loose connections, and investigated further to make sure there weren't any overload issues. They replaced a couple outlets that weren't working properly in the kitchen. All in all, Pasha was knowledgeable and very helpful describing what he was doing. He was prompt, fair and reliable. I've dealt with a lot of sub trades and electricians and I'd recommend this company very highly. read more

To make it clear, this review is not about service, it's about the quote I received on the phone. Base on almost all 5-star reviews, I contacted Merv to request a troubleshooting service on one of my dead outdoor outlets. After listening the issue, the person who answered my call told me it will be $467 to troubleshoot and minor repair the issue. I thought I heard it wrong about the quote, I had to confirm the price with him. My company deals with electricians all the time, I understand they are expensive, hourly rate starts at 1xx/hr, but, $467 is really high. Maybe they provide outstanding service, I wouldn't know, since I did not use their service. read more

I used Merv Electric to have an outlet installed in my home. Parahat showed up at the scheduled time and was respectful of our home by being prepared with shoe covers and was wearing a mask. I'm extremely satisfied with the work that was performed, I didn't have to clean anything up afterwards either, which is always a plus. Though I only requested the outlet to be installed, Parahat was more than willing to look at a couple of other things I had questions about and offer up recommendations on how to address them. I will definitely contact Merv again the next time I need an electrician. read more

Highly recommend Merv Electric. Showed up same day and took care of my outlet installation at half the cost of what another company had quoted me. Was very professional and wore a mask the entire time. read more

We used Merv Electric to do several days worth of projects around the house (pot lights, new outlets, replacing bathroom fans, new circuits, etc.). They were fantastic and we're very happy with the results. They left their work areas very clean. Always wore masks. They were very responsive via email. They adapted to various minor changes I requested. The prices were very fair. Everything past inspections. Overall, very happy with the results - I highly recommend to others. read more
