Electrical reviews in Sanford, Florida

Sanford Electric was so helpful from getting a permit to inspection to finally getting our power back on. Kathy was great answering all of our questions and walking us through everything. Thank you so much, highly recommend

Just to note' that I was very pleased with the professionalism of the company and of course the personal representatives( Cathy the dispatcher and her electrical team) there determination to solve the problem and at an affordable cost. yes i would recommend them..Thank you again to my new bff

Did not communicate took two months to get a part and never called me. I had to call them every week. Never again. They still have not finished the job. Suppose to this week but not holding my breath.

The tech (Scott) said it would cost $100. for the 1st hour plus parts (estimated $50.00) maybe $250.00 total so I agreed and let him do the job. When finished he presented a bill for $375.70. He said he "MEANT to say $100.00 for him and $100.00 for his "helper". He didn't address the $123.00 for the part. YIKES!!!
They were here JUST ABOUT an hour. What a way to do business . . . . Never again.
GET A WRITTEN QUOTE BEFORE YOU USE THESE GUYS.
The work was done just fine but I didn't appreciate being taken advantage of financially because I'm a 67 year old woman here by myself. SHAMEFUL way to treat folks....

I called this company yesterday (7/6/21)to request a technician come by to look at a tripped breaker. Spoke to someone on the phone who took all my info and said they would call me when in route. It's 7/7/21 and I received no call or no one showed up. As a business owner I understand how important communication is with my customers. I guess this company feels different about that.

I've remodeled several homes and had experience with many local electricians. Sanford Electric is tops. They are responsive, offer great service and have never failed to solve a tricky problem or an electrical mystery. The two electricians who have worked with us (Darren and Charlie) have been professional and courteous.

I am very impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of the staff, especially Kathy. I would hire them again. They went above and beyond the call of duty to help me out.
Thank you to all that work at Sanford Electric.

UPDATE: After two months of feeling like I was getting the run around, Jim Depoy, from Sanford Electric, called me back. Apparently he is the license holder for the business. He stated he was unaware of what had happened to my ceiling. He wanted to schedule someone to come out and take pictures, which honestly boiled my blood. I refused to let that happen again. Instead, I offered to send him pictures, which he agreed to. I promptly sent them accepted via email. He confirmed receipt.
About a week later, I was wondering if I'd ever hear back. The next day, he called and said he would find a dry waller. A week after that, he found a dry waller and called to ask about my availability. I told him just book a date and a time with the dry waller and tell me what it is. I was trying to be as flexible as possible, to facilitate the repair.
A couple days later he called and gave me the appointment date and time. The dry waller was on time. The job was completed in about three hours and it looks pretty good.
Afterward, Jim called again to see if I was pleased with the work and mentioned painting the area. I declined the offer for painters, since I don't have any matching paint and I don't want to take the time to be there for another subcontractor. The hole is fixed; it can be painted later. I appreciated his gesture for the painters though.
The incident occurred on Monday, November 15, 2021 and was repaired on Friday, January 21, 2022. Just over two months to get it fixed. I understand there were a few holidays in between those dates, so that's why I was being as flexible about it as I possibly could. At this point, I don't know if I'd hire them again, but at least I can say they came through in the end and made amends.

TERRIBLE. During the work to install a new power outlet with its own breaker, they tunneled it through the garage attic and PUT A LARGE HOLE IN MY CEILING and they have yet to repair it. They have given me the run around in fixing it. They initially did the work in mid NOVEMBER.
The technician that accidentally dropped his drill in the attic, which is what broke through the ceiling, took pictures and sent them to the company. He said they would call me to schedule a repair. THEY NEVER CALLED.
A week later, when I called the company, they apologized and said they had the pictures and they would get back to me. A week later, they still had not called so I called again. They said they did not have the pictures and needed to come out and see the ceiling to make an estimate. I tried to schedule an appointment where I knew I would be home, but they insisted they wanted to come sooner than that, to get it taken care of right away. So I told them to pick a date and time and I'd have a family member come to my home to allow entry.
The day of my appointment, my family member waited 2 hours and no one came. I called them to see if they were coming and they said they in fact were NOT coming because they "found" the pictures. They did not even care to call and cancel. Ridiculous.
I have since called and left messages on their website contact and voice message and THEY ARE NOT RETURNING MY CALLS. They put a hole in my ceiling and they are avoiding me. I regret paying them. I should have REFUSED to pay them for their services until the hole in the ceiling was fixed. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM! IT HAS BEEN TWO MONTHS since this happened and they are ignoring me.
See attached picture for the hole in the ceiling.

Called Sanford Electric at 9:00am to schedule an appointment to check meter box. The man I spoke with was courteous and had serviceman at the property within 15 minutes. They checked the breaker box and contacted FP&L and clear the account within an hour. They charged $90 for everything. We own 43 properties and accordingly use lots of service vendors. This was outstanding service. I would highly recommend and will continue to use them in the future.

This company is good for doing simple electrical work like installing light fixtures.

Sanford Electric doesn’t have the confidence to do more complicated electric work. It’s something to keep in mind when approaching them.

Thanks Sanford Electricals!

Wow! What a great fast response time and very professional. I had a microwave waiting to be installed when we needed an electrician to install an outlet. They arrived within 45 mins and were able to get it done so the installer could finish. Thank you so much for job well done!!

Absolutely an outstanding and reliable company. From the first phone call, through the arrival of the technicians and including the price, 100% top notch. Eric and Jimmy were courteous and knowledgeable.
Thank you Sanford Electric Company. You have my business and my respect.

Spoke to Kathy this morning. OMG what a nice, professional. transparent lady!!! Had a small issue, and a tech was dispatched same day. Kathy makes for reasons companies like Sanford Electric have been in business for decades. The professionalism, and expertise are unmatched!!! Keep up the awesome work Kathy!!

I want to say
Kathy went above and beyond working with us to navigate the rabbit hole process of permits and inspection to get our power restored. She worked with us daily keeping us updated You will never go wrong using Sanford Electric, ask for Kathy you won't be disappointed.

This was a wonderful experience with a great company :) It started with a great experience with Kathy on the phone to set the appointment whom actually dispatched the technicians even earlier than expected :) Eddie and Elijah did fantastic work and we were so appreciative :) Thank you!!!

I was looking for an electrician to come wire my sunroom. I sent out quotes on a Saturday and within 2 hours I had a call from the owner. He got some basic information on what I was looking for and had someone come out the following week. They were great! The estimate they provided was fair (others were going to charge 3x the amount) and it got done the next week. The electrician was friendly, polite and cleaned up when she was finished. Would definitely recommend them.

Great job by Eddie installing a new track light and fixing our electric mishap in the kitchen. Thank you Kathy for moving us up a day for the service. Very efficient! Will use again for our electrical needs.

I called and spoke with Kathy, who was not only nice but also very thorough, about a breaker that would not reset and was causing our well to lose power. I called on a Friday morning (the week before Thanksgiving) and figured no one would come out right before the weekend but Kathy said Jason would- and he did! Turns out the problem requires additional parts he didn’t have but he said they would try and get the parts and call us back to schedule someone to come out next week. We are waiting on their call now but we are still grateful that they came out on such short notice!

Eddie Reynoso along with his helper/son Elijah came to our house and were very polite and professional. They changed out a few fixtures, switches and did a repair. They also worked quickly and cleaned up. I highly recommend Sanford Electric for any electrical needs.

This is THE BEST electric company. Beginning with Kathy on the phone, helping all the way from scheduling to the end of the job, to Eddy the excellent technician and his apprentice son. They go way above and beyond their job to make sure that everything works properly and you are 100% satisfied.
Do not look further, give them a call!

We worked with Kathy on the phone, and she was fantastic. She got a crew out to our house much, MUCH sooner than we expected, and they did a phenomenal job. Eddie and Elijah were courteous, professional, and did excellent work. After replacing a bathroom light fixture, they even went above and beyond by replacing a burnt-out bulb in a tricky place over the bathtub.
