Very disappointing experience and poor follow-through. I contacted this company for a time-sensitive electrical issue at my rental property in Renton after my tenant raised safety concerns. The technician came out, identified several issues that needed repair, and provided two pricing options: a higher price if the work was done the same week, and a lower price if scheduled the following week. I approved the early-next-week option and asked for confirmation of the schedule and final cost. After that, communication stopped completely. No confirmation, no follow-up, and no response to my approval. When I reached out again over a week later to schedule the work, I was told they were "too busy." This was after my time and my tenant's time had already been spent, and after I had clearly communicated approval and intent to proceed. If they were unavailable or no longer interested in the job, that should have been communicated upfront. Instead, I was left hanging and now have to restart the process with another electrician and inconvenience my tenant again. This was an unprofessional experience with poor communication and unreliable customer service. I would not rely on this company again for time-sensitive or tenant-occupied properties. read more

Amazing work, definitely recommended! I had a lot of work to be done to an old house with an old panel: -new 200 amps panel -level 2 EV charger -home surge protection -generator plug outdoor with interlock in main panel -heatpump hook up Alfred stopped by quick, did a free consultation and estimate, answered all my questions via email in details, for a few days we discussed all the details and he provided different options with associated datasheets. (I'm a really picky customer :) ). He recommended me to get an EV charger level 2 to take advantage of the rebate ending in February, I was not even aware of that. He also worked with the city seamlessly and in a timely fashion. When the work was scheduled, his team showed up and in a day they did all the work without any assistance. The whole installation looks great, the team has great attention to details and they have been really accommodating my asks. Great job Alfred and Ohm Electrical team! read more

I hired this company through yelp a while back and they ripped me off The guy said a bunch of things, To explain why the price was so high and it sounded good they where real reasons they just didn't apply to my property, and there contract is so well written that I have no legal recourse They got me for over 4 thousand more then it should have cost read more

We use OHM Electrical for all of our electrical needs from installing new lines for lighting, rewiring our panel box to bring it up to code from the original 1950's wiring or installing a commercial high temp dishwasher. Alfred, Justin and the crew are always friendly, knowledgeable and professional! read more

I could not be happier with my experience working with Ohm Electrical. I had a pretty massive knob & tube wire removal project for my home and they: - came in with a bid that was HALF the cost of the two other bids i received - completed the work exactly on time and at a high quality - ended up costing even less b/c they identified work in the original bid that wasn't ultimately required - communicated well the entire time I also requested a quote a while back for my kitchen remodel and really wanted to go with Ohm Electrical but the general contractor I hired recommended his own guy. I regret not pushing to go with Ohm on that one! read more

Ohm did the seemingly impossible. We had been really struggling with someone that could do a small job of adding some outlets to help us keep some cords away from a newly mobile baby. Not only did the quickly respond, they offered to come do the walkthrough so quickly that we were the ones who were unavailable. From there we were scheduled for the walkthrough and the work done all in the span of a week. They even recommended we go to a four outlets behind the TV so we could eliminate a power strip which in hindsight was ab obvious improvement that we just didn't think to ask for and they didn't change the charge. If you like responsiveness, follow-through, and quality work, they're your people. They are worth every bit that they charge, and I hope they continue to expand so it's easier for folks to get smaller jobs done faster. Thank you so much! read more

Best electrical company I have ever worked with. Very up front and had great ideas to help with costs. Work was fast and clean. Great team. Had an electrical panel upgrade from 100 amp to 200 amp. read more

Ohm electrical was a no show on an urgent project and they didn't even bother to give me a heads-up or to respond to my calls/email. Potential clients, you don't want to do business with any service provider who abuses your trust. Imagine if something goes wrong and you want them back. Ian at Ohm electrical knew my family was stranded until the job was completed. To expedite things, he had me fill out their waiver to agree to the $300 visit charge and other terms and conditions before booking. Then they simply were no shows after I had waited for 2 days! Now, I am back to square 1 looking for an electrician, extending an unpleasant situation for my family. Ohm electric: you can always say "we can't do the job" and maybe I would have found someone else. Rather, you chose to inflict unnecessary pain. When you make an appointment (with all your waivers and paperwork), you show up particularly when urgent. Not cool at all!!! read more

Needed a new electrical panel installed in my home. Alfred made good suggestions and provided a bid that was reasonably priced. They were able schedule the work in one week and did a good job with minimal disruptions. They also arranged to have the new panel inspected and it passed with flying colors. I also had them change out some recessed can lights with LEDs and dimmers. Very easy to work with. I am pleased with my upgraded electrical system. read more

They are the absolutely best electricians that I have ever worked with. Very competent, very honest, I highly recommend them. read more

Extemely arrogant and unprofessional. Dont count on them to even show up got your job! read more

Contacted OHM to get a free quote to get some three way switches wired correctly in a house we had just moved into. But before the tech got to the house, someone from their office called and said that they thought the appointment should be for a time and materials appointment and not a quote appointment and that it should only take ONE hour. I trusted the caller's opinion and agreed to change the appointment. I was at work when the technician showed up and only my wife was at home. The job ended up taking 3.25 hours and costing $1,100. Can't help but to feel tricked by OHM. read more

Power went out to about half of my apartment, and my property manager called Ohm after he attempted to sort it out himself. It was a breaker situation and Alfred helped me fix it over the phone. He could have come out and charged me - I don't know anything about this stuff and had been previously told it could be a loose wire. I appreciated his help and straightforwardness! read more

I can't thank Alfred enough! Our main power breaker decided to crap out on us on a Saturday evening and Alfred was the ONLY electrician we could get a hold of at that time. We were doing basement renovation electrical stuff, so he had us walk through what we were working on to see if he could diagnose the issue to save him having to come out there (although he was willing to come if needed). He was honest in that the part we needed wasn't even available til Monday anyway, so no point in paying the emergency fees to have him come out. He arrived first thing Monday morning with the issue already diagnosed and had our power on in no time. He was timely, honest, and willing to help through the entire process so we decided to have him bid our upcoming electrical work for the entire basement. Highly recommended: ) read more

Ohm Electrical did a knob and tube removal and some minor electrical additions to the house (EV charger and garage wiring). All in all, some 50+ outlets/switches/lights across two floors, that needed to be updated or installed, and some old knob and tube tie-ins with the newer electrical from previous "upgrades" needed to be tracked down and disconnected. Alfred (the owner) came for initial assessment, and stopped by every once in a while during the project. The electricians Alex and Giuseppe were very helpful, professional, and open to concerns and happy to discuss multiple options of how to run the new wiring in the house. Alex did a particularly good job tracking down all existing tie-ins and doing final stretch of the project. The only feedback I have is that their back-office operation seems to be swamped and sometimes there appears to be a miscommunication about what/where needs to be done in the bid/CO, partly due to inconsistent labeling and partly due changes in scope. So we had multiple back and forth about particulars of the bid /CO. I think it would have been better if they provided a doc that they can collaborate with the client to make all work items are where they are supposed to be, rather than using round trip update. Something like Google Docs make it easy for both sides to see all the changes that everybody made. read more

I requested a quote through Yelp for a new home service panel and a couple outlets in my unfinished garage. Ian scheduled and appointment and came out to estimate the job. A week later I get an e-mail telling me I need to coordinate with my utility to get him the exact location of my electrical vault. I asked for the quote, and was told that I couldn't get a quote without providing him with that information. I don't want to know where my electrical vault is - I want an electrical contractor that knows how to find that. Couldn't even get a quote. Waste of my time. read more

Ohm Electrical is very responsive- I was able to get an appointment scheduled that worked for my timetable immediately! Alfred was very prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. He quickly troubleshot my issues and explained what was happening. He was able to send me a detailed plan and has very reasonable rates - highly recommend! read more

We contracted Ohm to install an EV charger in our parking space of our multi-unit condo building a couple of years ago. They knew exactly what they were doing and were extremely professional and efficient. Years later when our building had some questions about the project, they responded immediately and were able to get us the information we needed within hours. We are very grateful to have worked with Ohm and would 100% recommend them for future projects! read more

These guys were great. A very smooth operation with timely response and great work. And they didn't want to extort me like the other electricians I had come out. read more

Don't trust! Owner Alfred did some work on electrical panel.. and he reset my power so I would "think" it was fixed..30 minutes later same electrical issues happening..I called him and he said it would be more money and service fees (of course) In trying To figure out what he did I reviewed my surveillance and caught him red-handed!! ONLY AFTER I CONFRONTED HIM ABOUT IT He agreed to give me a partial refund of the absurd amount of money he charged me...No excuses he gives will suffice his attempted scam move. read more

We had them come out to give an estimate on 3-4 small/simple electrical jobs. They came out, took a look, explained what would need to be done, and then left saying they would be back in touch. They never got back in touch and repeated attempts to get ahold of them have been met with silence. Not sure what happened but they seem to ghost their customers. read more

The first time that I had work done by Ohm, it went okay aside from a mess left behind and damage to a tree. The second time, things went very wrong. They did work that I specifically said not to do, unbalanced the insulation in my attic and were going to leave without redistributing it, and cut very large holes in my walls. Alfred said that there would be a couple of small holes. Three-foot high holes are not small and cost more to repair than the electrical work. The worst part was that he accused me of having memory problems and then said he would assist with repairs. After he said that, he left and of course denied having ever stated that. Be prepared for the standard company rebuttal of "we're sorry you misunderstood" blah blah blah. They obviously have had to use that line before with other dissatisfied customers. Don't be fooled. read more

I called due to smoke detector going off without any apparent reason. Ohm returned my call promptly, had someone out to our house before the end of the day. Alfred, showed up, wearing a mask and ready to dive in. He was very knowledgeable and explained what the error points could be and offered me an option to do the work myself and save a few bucks, which I appreciated. Being not handy and wanting it done right I asked him to proceed. He was able to procure and install all new smoke and carbon monoxide detectors throughout the house quickly. I will call Ohm again for any future electrical needs. read more

Al at OHM has been a godsend! We called OHM panicking because we had a sump pump problem and not only did he get to us ASAP, he talked my husband through the process so he could understand what was going on. We enjoyed the experience so much we contracted Al to come back to do other complex electrical work in the house, including hot tub wiring. Al is always pleasant and gracious and shares information so you can be an educated homeowner. We trust him so much we let him come in the house when we weren't even home. Prices were also reasonable as compared to what we found. You can't go wrong choosing OHM. Trust us! read more

I had a great experience with Alfred Paul. He was communicative, prompt, readily available, and knowledgable. He did homework on my problem in just the few hours between when I called and when he came to my home. Highly recommended. read more

I called Ohm and they got the work done in just a couple days. They installed 5 outlets in our basement. Thanks!

Came out within an hour of calling him on a Saturday afternoon to fix a major problem with our electrical system at our business. Super fast and professional. Clearly explained the issue and fix and made us feel comfortable with the result. We will definitely be using Ohm for any future electric work. read more

I found Paul through Craig's List and he responded right away and was able to come out and right away to help me with a small project in my bathroom. When Paul arrived I found out I was his first customer for his new Electrical Contracting business. Paul did a great job; I needed to have a vanity light moved and a new bathroom fan/light installed. He completed the project quickly and efficiently. I'll definitely use Ohm Electrical again in the future. read more
