Mister Sparky of North Orlando

So far. They have already canceled for appointment booked yesterday. Not looking good.

I called Mr. Sparky to get a quote for replacement of my obsolete electrical panel. I also wanted an inspection of the wiring in the attic as there was evidence of rodent activity in the past. There were some other issues I was aware of based on DIY work being done around the house by the previous owner but none were critical. I'm an electrical engineer with a passing familiarity with the NEC, but as I usually do I played dumb while the rep was there.

The rep (Jason) never bothered to look in the attic before telling me that an inspection of the wiring would cost nearly as much as a full rewire, that it was basically guaranteed that the wiring was trashed if there'd ever been rodents and in any case they wouldn't touch the panel without a full inspection or full rewire because the ""liability"" was too great.

Long story short he told me my only real option was a $24,000 complete rewire and suggested my house would burn down soon if I didn't do it (not in a threatening way, but trying to get me to panic and jump on it).

Since then I had a different electrician out who, after I paid a different company about $1,000 to remove all the insulation, inspected the attic wiring for free and found a single wire with a tiny nick in the outer insulation which probably wasn't even from rodents and a single circuit that'd need to be replaced because it wasn't run with the proper wire. He was also quite happy to give a quote on just the electrical panel and putting the other issues right, and the total project will be less than $5,000.

I wasn't going to post a review about this but the more I've thought about it the more it's haunted me as I'm sure they're scaring a lot of people into rewiring their house unnecessarily. Remember, just because wire is old doesn't necessarily mean it's no good and always get multiple quotes before starting work.

( Beware) I had this Mister Sparky come out due to a broken light switch ($300) yes a $2 light switch, replaced 2 garage lights( $500) add a sensor switch ($200) . 30 minute job cost $1000.
this company has no problems and remorse in charging such prices . To bad we as homeowners can't find a good honest electrical company in central florida

Mr Sparkys did a major rewire on our house for $20k. They did a completely terrible job. Most of the outlets are crooked. They left wires strewn haphazardly about our attic. The circuit breaker was completely mislabeled. And the kicker, one of their guys busted a hole in our ceiling, they said they would repair it, and now have refused to do that and are avoiding our attempts to contact them.

Do not work with this company.

I got ripped off by this company. I was told a specific price and / days later after the job was completed I was told that is was way more. It has been months since this happened and it's very hard to forget because I had to max out all my credit cards to pay them. They are a bunch of criminals in my opinion. I called and spoke with the manager and got nowhere in finding a resolution. I would never recommend them. I would say.. stay very far from this company. RIP OFF

READ REVIEWS...there is a pattern...check google! So I needed a plug install in my garage and have had 3 other quotes by other electricians all of which provided me the same/similar information. Jason, from Mr. Sparky, came out and was very nice and friendly (until he wasn't). He first inspected my panel and said due to the age of the house (built in 1996) there was concern that my panel box was burning out and it would be a manner of time before it would need replaced. Then said he would not be able to do any work until the panel box was replace and then said it would be around $5000!!! I told him I would think about it and would need to get further information and quotes...He continued to call me (over 6 times) within a few hours with sales pitches on what they could do to help me with the price and how important it was to prevent my electrical from burning out. I decide to have another company come who said all the information I got from Mr. Sparky was ridiculous and that there are several options other than ""upgrading"" they entire electrical. I call them back to tell them I was not interested in moving forward with them and Jason became very aggressive and said this was my one and only chance to protect my house and have the job done correctly...I had to block his phone!!
I highly suggest getting multiple quotes and NOT trusting them without getting additional or other information. Thanks to Yelp! I read other reviews and learned this is a tactic of their business. It is a sale scheme...

I had Tanner and Mister Sparky come now on 3 separate occasions for 3 different installs and each time they did a phenomenal job - you do not have to worry about them doing any work at your house - they were on-time, professional and competent - would highly recommend.

Electrician did the job but it is very costly. It's so surprising to have 7 pendant lights installed for $1284. I opted for it since the person was here and I needed to get these lights installed. I asked for the invoice and received in 3 days later. The invoice noted 6 lights for 17-23 feet high and that was incorrect. So I called to speak to the manager and gave yet to hear back. I'm assuming that I was charged based on height since it was noted as such but can't confirm since I have not received a call back. I would not recommend this company. It took 10-15. Minutes to install the pendants and if you break it down, it's $170/ light for 10 minute install. Too expensive and my dining room lights are hanging at a slant! Electrician did not correct. Surge protection cost was way too much. We didn't opt for that. Cost would've been over $3k!

The electrician spoke to me like I was stupid and had no brain. He was extremely RUDE, OBNOXIOUS, and BELITTLING. I see now why women always want a man with them when calling any worker to your house, or buying a car. I waited all day for Mister Sparky to come because I lost power in my Master bedroom. I waited all day for him to leave without doing any work because he said he wouldn't touch anything without installing a new panel for thousands of dollars. I really felt like I was talking to a salesman and not an electrician.An hour later I called All Electric. They came that very day. They were excellent. They checked every electrical outlet in my room including the ceiling fan to thoroughly diagnose the problem. Found out it was the wiring connected to the ceiling fan that was causing the breaker to trip. He fixed it and installed my new ceiling fan, too. I felt so happy with All Electric work. They were kind, professional, and skilled. The price was extremely reasonable. I have few companies that I give five star ratings to, they are All Electric, Chick Fil A, and Publix. These are the companies I walk away from feeling happy, appreciated, and like my money went to the right company.

This company must be run by a bunch of crooks. I contacted Mister Sparkey for an estimate to install 2 ceiling fans. The electrician shows up and first wants to inspect my electrical panels. He claims the one outside has a surge protector in the box and it will blow in 10 years if I don't have them take it out. Basically he's using scare tactics to try and sell me things I don't need. Keep in mind my house was built in 2020. Now on to the estimate for the fans. He says this was a ""complicated"" job because my lights weren't meant for ceiling fans. Quoted me a price of $724! Needless to say I said no thanks and sent him on his way. Contacted a local electrician in my town and they charged me $200(includes warranty on any electrical issues). They told me this was an easy job and they constantly hear horror stories about Mister Sparkey. In my opinion the owners should be thrown in prison for trying to take advantage of people. Avoid at all costs if you care about your money!
