Mister Sparky Electrical

Kyle H.

Consumer buyer beware of over charging for some simple repairs. Technician was very nice and informative. Explained everything. But your back is against the wall when you call for help on a electrical issue. Right away they hit you with a estimate that was shocking. Just to assess a problem with a circuit for outside plugs the bill was $549 plus the $69 service fee for a total of $618 to replace 4 exterior electrical plugs and put silicone around each plug. These plugs costs about $1.50 each.
There was an independent electrician down the street at a neighbors house today when I went to get my mail and I asked him what he would charge for replacing 4 exterior plugs and checking the gfci's. $120. I repeat $120. Almost a $400 difference. And does not charge a service fee of $69. I learned my lesson not going to call Mister Sparky again.
Then beware of the upscale of items that are not needed. That is another review. Funny how these big name service companies all try the same tactics of upselling. One Hour did the same thing to me two weeks ago.

They've been to our house twice now and both times the price was INSANE. Last trip they charged us $700 for two $45 circuit breakers. Never again...total price gouging

We recently contacted Mister Sparky for an estimate to have a Nema 14-50 outlet installed to charge a Tesla as well as add an outlet in our entry hallway. While the technician was very nice, the prices that Mister Sparky charges are outrageously high. They are clearly trying to make a living off of only doing a few jobs a month. Everyone else they charge a $59 estimate fee to to rip you off even more.

For those curious, they wanted $900 to install a hall outlet and over $4,000 for the Tesla charging port. Yes they had to run a wire, but $4K is over double my next highest quote!

Definitely will not be using Mister Sparky and we do not recommend you even waste your time on them. They are polite and show up fast, but that's it.

My regular electrician was unavailable so I called Mr.Sparky to have an electrician come hang a chandelier for me. I do this for a living as I am an interior designer. I move and rehang chandeliers ALL THE TIME. After spending 20 minutes at my home the electrician quoted me $950 to do the simple job! I was literally shocked! I was frustrated to have to pay a $60 trip fee for a completely unrealistic quote. I later got ahold of my one of my regular electricians and he hung the chandelier for me for $125. I think they are making a business off of trip charges and ""suckers"" who will pay 9 times the normal price. I then spoke to a family member who had a similar experience with Mr.Sparky. (They quoted $14,000 for something that they then got done for $250.) I've never left a bad review in my life, but I feel this is unfair to take advantage of people.

My family had a negative experience with Mister Sparky - we chose them because they seemed reputable and figured it would be worth the price, but they ended up not being able to fix the wiring problems at our front entrance despite charging $400. When we called back about the issue, the manager was not very pleasant and they didn't call back after saying they would. Could keep pushing the issue but not sure if it's worth the energy. Anyway, do not recommend.

Called for 24/7 service. Stephanie answered and said the soonest someone could come to my house was tomorrow since it's Sunday. Well. I think that doesn't quite cut it. After a storm passed today I have an outlet in the garage that no longer works. My freezer and internet are plugged into it. It may not be an emergency to them but it certainly is to me.

First thing, they charge just to come to your house which you are informed of up front, against my better judgement I agreed. Big mistake on my part, I feel like I was trying to earn there business instead of them trying to earn mine.. 2nd I used them because I had 4 previous outlets installed in my house for a little over $200 each and I thought that was to much.. Well let me tell you, to do the same type of outlet from Mr. Sparky is $358 plus $49 fee for them coming out. I also tell you I asked them to promptly leave my house. I will never call them again not recommend them to anyone... Overpriced and of course this upfront fee is ridiculous.. $49 is the only money they will ever see from me or any of my friends and family.. Enjoy the money...

My kitchen overhead lights would not work in our 25 year old home. It put a damper on cooking my Thanksgiving dinner. So, I called Mr. Sparky the Friday after the holiday and made an appointment for an electrician to come out between 6p.m.-9p.m. on that day. The company called me an hour before his ETA and sent me a text with the employee 's name as Sam and a picture. Sam arrived 30 minutes early, assessed the problem, and provided three different plans to address the problem. The prices ranged from $423 to $1000. We went with the plan B to retrofit our fixture to use energy efficient LED lights and had lights on in a little over an hour. Sam was professional , knowledgeable,and did not try to add more to our agreed bill. Thank you Mr. Sparky for running a professional and trustworthy company!

We had a small electrical fire in an outlet in our kitchen last night and actually had to call the fire department out. Early this morning I contacted Mister Sparky and they replied almost immediately and set up an appointment. William arrived when they said he would and he walked through the house and listened to our issues. William is so personable and very professional. He listened and then he explained everything. He made sure we understood what the process was and also gave us several options to be able to make the best decision for us. When he started the install another Mister Sparky technician arrived to assist, Lee. They both worked efficiently and were very professional. They made sure we understood everything and the work the performer was awesome. I cannot say enough about how Awesome William M was and how much I appreciate his work and how compassionate he was. Thank you William and Lee and Mister Sparky!!!

I had Mister Sparky install a new ground rod and wiring. The technician checked my breaker boxes and I needed some repairs. The work was done very good and timely. However, the bill was way more than I expected. Great work but not a good value! I calculated out the cost of labor and it came to nearly $500/hour. I could recommend the work, but certainly not the price.
