Rae Ann was extremely helpful on getting an appointment set up right away. Miguel was very professional and helpful on how to fix the chewed wire from a rat/squirrel leading into my attic. They came out the next day and replaced and fixed the wire promptly.

Disgusted by this company... I tried them by finding them on home advisor. So the only positive was that they were timely came out right away but that's because they don't have any other business. So they charge you $48 just to come out and do a quote, red flag number 1. Secondly I had a simple ceiling fan install and they wanted to charge me $411!!! That's on top of the $48 quote, so about $460 total to install a fan. Ya no, that's called robbery. I have a friend who has his own electrical business and said it should cost between 200-300 TOTAL for everything install. I will be writing reviews on every venue possible so others won't get ripped off. You should be ashamed Priority 1...

Casey and zach took great care of us and our electrical needs. They were here promptly after we called (within 15 minutes) and did all the work we needed on the spot. We will definitely call them again for any of our electrician needs. Their service charge was also much cheaper than other companies I called.


Following day needed assistance and for 2 seconds of work got charged $95. Just paid over $500 the previous day. Next time you should waive a fee for a follow up the next day.

I have used this company more than once for work on my commercial building. They have always been easy to work with & reliable. I have never had any issues with their work. In my experience they were easy to schedule, arrived on time and performed the work immediately and correctly. I plan to continue to use this great company.

Priority 1 Electric is prohibitively expensive and they scam prospective clients with their $47.50 diagnostic charge. They gave me an estimate of $5,274.86 for some lighting installation in my kitchen. I had the work completed by a different certified, insured, Master Electrician with 20 years experience who offered a 10 year warranty. He completed the work within six hours for a total cost of $700. That's correct - $4,500 less than the quote from Priority 1. I have never written a Yelp review before, but felt compelled to warn others of Priority 1's unethical business practices. While I can not attest to their work, I wholeheartedly agree with other reviewers that this company is dishonest and deceptive. Please do not fall for their fraudulent trap of allowing them into your home for a trip fee, only to have this followed by an exorbitantly inflated estimate.

I don't know anything about household electricity, so I called my brother, a plumbing contractor out of town. He researched and selected Priority1 for me.

Casey came out on time, he listened respectfully to my amateurish explanation of our problem and gave me two possible solutions. He told me he would check the panel and let me know what he found.

Fortunately, we could choose the less expensive solution safely. Casey explained what he would do, and the timeline. He did the repair in the time he had estimated at the cost quoted.

I felt respected. Casey explained in plain language that I could understand. I realize that my problem may continue because I selected the less expensive fix. If and when I need to do the changes recommended, I WILL call Priority1.

Scamed based on the fact they charge to give you a job estimate only to inflate the estimate so the customer will reject the bid so they don't have to do the work. Easy money for them.
The next company estimated the job 350 dollars less and finished the job in less time. Just another way to make a fast buck and to scam seniors.

I had a completely different experience from the other people who have reviewed Priority 1 Electric. I had a horrible experience with another highly recommended electrician. They promised to come out to give an estimate and then flaked. I contacted Priority 1 Electric through homeadvisor.com at 5:30 am. They called me by 7:15 am and were at my house by 10:30 am. I scheduled the installation for the next day. The price was right and they showed up on-time. They didn't make a mess and the job was done right. I'm impressed and will use them again.

Positive experience from the beginning. Their dispatcher recommended I check them out with the BBB and the contractors license board before committing to a contract.
What a wonderful experience. On time, pleasant discussion about my problem, through analysis on the conditions then a written proposal. They did the work as Miguel said they would. I am very happy with the respect shown to me and my family. Wish more were like them. I strongly recommend them for any electrical work.

I really hope people check this site before getting this company out to your door. With my experience and, also after reading a few other folks' reviews, it is my opinion that this company is there to fish for trip charges.

I don't have time to write a lot. Their quote for anything and everything is extremely excessive so that you won't hesitate for a second to turn down their service. Then, Rae Ann Murray, their General Manager, would use all kinds of threats to have you pay them the $47.50 trip charge.

So NEVER NERVER NEVER let this company get near your door.
