Esed is the best. He is direct about his fees and schedule which apparently puts some people off but I found him very knowledgeable and an expert electrician, as well as being a very nice and patient person. I appreciated that he took the time to ask careful questions about the electrical problems I was having over the phone before coming out. He will advise against making changes if he thinks they are a waste of money or are unsafe. He also makes recommendations on how to reduce energy use. I found him to be the ideal solution for a variety of pesky electrical issues in my house. He also saved me a pile of money by recommending against buying an imported washer dryer set given the limitations of wiring in my laundry room. Highly recommend him, very good value for money.

Esed and Ideal Electric were fantastic. I needed to get Fiber optic cable installed in the house but there was no route from outside to where the router was. So I needed conduit to be installed. Within 30 minutes of posting the project on Yelp, Esed called to ask about the project an get the details. He had a good understanding of what needed to be done and came to the house that evening to check on the specifics. He gave a good quote and took the time to explain if an why it might change (it didn't ). He was around the next day to install the conduit, taking into account any request I had made about placement. The conduit had to pass through two dry walls and an an outside wall, and Esed took great care so as not cause any damage, made a watertight seal on the outside wall. He made sure that there was no mess at the end.
I would highly recommend Esed for his professionalism and quality of his work.

This is the second time Esed has worked his magic for our electrical needs. Esed came very highly recommended through several of our neighbors and friends as well as glowing reviews on Yelp. His level of expertise, responsiveness, punctuality, reliability, honesty, efficiency, cost-effectiveness and overall professionalism is simply unparalleled. I would give him 10 stars if I could for responding within minutes and for repairing our recessed LED lighting within a couple of hours. He is the owner operator and does the work himself. His rates are fair and reasonable. He has a fully outfitted truck with lots of electrical supplies which saved us lots of time and hassle of a Home Depot trip. Esed also gave us lots of practical advice, safety tips and cost-effective options for our home. Esed is ABSOLUTELY AND POSITIVELY THE BEST home improvement professional we have ever met!

I needed to install a EV power outlet in my garage. I called a number of electricians in the area and decided to go with ideal electric because of the experience and professionalism of Esed. Good price, great work. I would highly recommend his services!

Don't know how this business got a 5 star rating--suspect it may have changed hands. They wanted me to commit to paying them $450 just to come out and see what the prob was with one of my circuit breakers.

I left a message with Esed on a Saturday. He was unable to schedule an appointment on the same day, but he was courteous and professional enough to call me back to let me know. When I explained that the electricity to various outlets including my refrigerator were not working, and that I would need help sooner, he walked me through some possible solutions and I fixed it myself, for free! Now I won't have to throw out spoiled perishables. Great guy! Thanks, Ideal Electric!

Sorry, but explained my issue and agreed to the $450 troubleshooting appointment, even thinking it as a bit excessive. Said they expected to be able to do it last Friday afternoon and would call in morning to confirm.

I scheduled nothing in the afternoon and waited for his call. It is now the following Monday and have heard nothing.

This says


Wow, I had hoped to forget this episode but just read his response.

I also own my business and would take criticism and not make up a response like this. It was simple, he said he would try and meet me on a Friday but call in am to confirm but never did. Wasted my time when I could have been doing other things.

Esed worked with me start to finish to order a replacement sub-meter, and then he was very professional in removing the old meter and installing the replacement. He showed up on time and completed the work within a couple hours--being sure to make me check his work to guarantee my satisfaction. He's fully competent and professional and his work quality is excellent. I give him my highest recommendation and hope to use his services many times in the future.

Nice guy. Came out quickly. Resolved the problem. Explained further work to consider and provided a quote. Prices might be slightly higher than others but he's pretty frank about it.
