Brite Electric

Mr J.

Had some quality issues after the install and some deceptiveness on change order pricing. I consider his charge order pricing to be overcharging. Very responsive to the quality issues and sent crew out as soon as possible to fix each issue, every time. Make sure each light and electrical outlet in the house is tested. I expect an electrician to do this testing but obviously it was not done and we had to find the electrical defects ourselves. Crew was very good to work with, polite and professional, and they cleaned up after themselves.

Best electrician in SD! If you ever need anything Tony, the owner, will get the job done and make sure you're 100% satisfied with it! Such an amazing local business. The ONLY electrician I trust! All the work he has done for me and I've never had a complaint!

The five star reviews for this place come from people with barely any other yelp reviews. I would keep this in mind when making a decision for yourself.

My experience mirrors a negative review below in that I had to redo Tony's expensive work because he did not do the job to CA code requirements. It is astounding to think that on a $2k job he would try to save maybe $50 in material rather than do it to code. My husband even asked him about the wire size he was using and when confronted he says it is to code and fine. Only after he pressed it further, did he finally relent and said my husband was right but that it would be fine and the code was too strict. I'm still waiting for him to refund our money.

His worker was also sloppy and messy and not very professional. This was about a year ago so I don't recall his name.

If he was a dirt cheap electrician I could maybe understand his thinking, but when he charges top dollar and you get subpar and amateur quality work there is just no point in entertaining his offer for your job. Maybe he can do a ceiling light or fan, but I would not trust him to do anything that required higher gauge wire that one day might lead to your house burning down because he skimped out.

I'm going to keep it simple. Tony (Brite Electric) was: 1) punctual 2) courteous 3) professional (chandelier installation on high ceiling was done right and quickly) and 4) reasonable (price).

You can't ask for more from any contractor. He'll be our go to guy for electrical issues now.

Tony and his assistant Jorge just installed 4 ceiling fans w/remotes in my home and did a wonderful job! Three of them did not have existing wiring so they had to do that also. I almost bought a deal from Angie's list for an electrician but I'm glad I did some research on Yelp and found Brite electric. It was a much more reasonable price.
I am going to have him back to do some recessed lights. Thank you Tony & Jorge

I needed a 240 VAC line installed for my dryer. Tony did the job very quickly. He was right on time and texted me when he was a couple minutes away which is always nice. Very friendly. I will definitely call Tony again for anything I need.

Not hard to understand why Tony has so many outstanding ratings.

I called Tony. we set up an appointment, and he arrived right on time.

I needed to have a current an experimental current monitoring device installed in my breaker box. I presented Tony with instructions, and a general description, and Tony was able to install the device and adjust a breaker within 30m--a quick check (online) showed it was working. I was shocked by how quickly he was able to install this, since he had, obviously never seen before.

I would recommend Tony very highly, and will contact him with any future electrical work!

Tony, the electrician from Brite Electric that I worked with on my house, is a very dedicated man. I have initially asked for a lot of electrical works to be done but he looked over the situation at my house and told me there's no need to do all of those works when cheaper and faster alternatives are available. I saved quite a bit in the end. I like that from a contractor, one who tells you extra works are not necessary. He even worked well into the night to get things done on time. I'd definitely give him a call again when I need more electrical works at the house to be done.

Tony, the owner, was very professional and helpful with his service. The time I called him to when he was finished was less than two hours and the price was very affordable. I would highly recommend him and use his services again.

Tony is very experienced electrician. He and his worker are very courteous and they used covers to cover our furniture before they were drilling holes on the attic. Tony is responsive and prompt with texting. I would recommend his service to any of our friends.
