Recommended Customer Reviews

I have been trying to get an electrician over to my house for 2 weeks to replace some outside floodlight receptacles. American had previously installed a new garbage disposal, so I tried them. The first appointment was a no-show due to rain. There was no follow-up by the office to reschedule, and there was no record of my appointment when I called again. I got another appointment; again no-show even though the weather was favorable, and again, no follow-up by American. The problem seems to be administrative at the office, not the electricians. Regardless, this is unsatisfactory customer service.

Waited until 15 minutes prior to appointment to make an excuse, then showed no desire to fix nor complete the work they were hired for. Absolutely the wrong way to run a business, and will not be using them for any future residential or commercial jobs.

I was called the day before my appointment with a confirmation. The day of my actual appointment (scheduled for 730 am) they called at 745 stating they couldn't make it because they sent the electrician and the large a frame ladder to a different appointment. My spouse and I shifted our schedules entirely to make this work. THEN American electric guaranteed they could be at my house at 430 pm the same day. I left work early only for them to call and tell me they would only come if I paid after hours pricing. This is TERRIBLE customer service. We will not be using this company for anything going forward.

Kevin did an incredible job installing our new outlet! Very virtuous and professional. High quality work done quickly. Definitely would recommend these guys!

This is the third time we have had the guys come out from American Electrical. And, as usual, they did not disappoint. Jameel and Chavon actually arrived early and immediately went to work. They took on each task with enthusiasm and a positive attitude. They even conquered a very challenging microwave installation! They got all of the work done in a very short period of time and then cleaned everything up. They both displayed a tremendous work ethic and we enjoyed working with them. I would highly recommend them! :)

I've always had great service from American Electrical. They did electrical work on my new (old) condo purchased last fall, including running new wires for various appliances and installing light fixtures. They rewired my old home and replaced the panel about 13 years ago, plus installed a plug for our generator. Every interaction has been professional and I've always thought their prices were fair!

Positive experience with this company. Technicians were on time, courteous, knowledgeable and efficient for inspection of wiring and installation of new lithium battery smoke detectors.

Honest, efficient, hardworking. What more could you ask for? The work ended up being less than anticipated and guess what? They charged me less than their original quote, without any hassles.id recommend them to anyone who wants a fair deal and doesn't want the runaround. Great communication.

UPDATED: 1 day after posting review we received our $87 check in the mail. Still no phone call or update from them but appreciate the owed refund.

Trustworthy and professional. Like these guys. Yelp wants me to keep writing / too short/ so I'm writing this sentence.
