Electrical reviews in Akron, Ohio

Mr Ray was a pleasure to work with! He went above and beyond my expectations. Thanks again!

He was able to help me over the phone and I ended up not needing him to come out. He was very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly.

I cannot say enough good things about Greg. Honest, reliable, great to chat with, fair, got the job done! Call him first.

My landlord had him come out he checked the plug outlets the switches and then the breaker box. Whatever he did to the box fixed the issue and my lights are back on.

AMAZING SERVICE! I called today for a repair that I thought would be troublesome and expensive. They were able to get our repair done same day, and the service and customer service were great! I highly reccomend!! They were very helpful and friendly, and the price was great too!

Ray did a great job. I highly recommend him...

Communication was great and quick to respond. He came out same day and got everything taken care of as requested for a reasonable price. Highly recommend!

The best electricion you will ever find! Honest to a fault! Greg truly cares about his customers and will go out of his way to help! I had multiple electricians here to fix this problem he had it solved in no time at about half the price of the previous electricians who were just tring to sell me more than I needed!

I am in the process of remodeling my kitchen and needed some wiring done. I called them yesterday and they were here this morning. Very friendly and professional. I am so grateful that I found them. I highly recommend them. I am looking forward to working with them again.

I received a quote over the phone, a very reasonable one, and hired him same day. He said he would install “next week.” When I texted the following week to get a date, he put it off and then ghosted all calls and texts without explanation. Had to hire someone else.

I was scheduled for an appointment and they never showed up. Once I reached out several times I got a call back three days later. When he called me back, he informed me that he was on his way to my property right then and there. Another few days went by, and they never arrived. I could have scheduled someone else to get the job timely or at all for that matter. I would not recommend them, they are very unreliable . .

Greg was the kindest and most helpful electrician. We will use him again in a heartbeat, and are happy to recommend him! He answered on a Friday afternoon when we lost power to two bathrooms and was available to come by on Saturday morning to try and solve the mystery. Communication with him was very clear and easy. He was very professional, and also followed Covid protocols by wearing a mask to protect both himself and us. Highly recommend!

I called Ray for an intermittent power issue where some outlets weren’t working. I called 6 places and Ray was the only one to call back quickly. Even though he couldn’t t get there for 2 days, he kept me informed on arrival time. While there, he made quick business of finding an open in my attic. Rates were reasonable considering the effort to find an open by following a wire. It turned out the old owner spliced a wire and didn’t secure it properly.

I called just before the close of business with some wiring questions. Mr. Ray offered to come over immediately, but since it wasn’t urgent I asked him to come over the following morning. He was very knowledgeable, and understood why the wiring done during past renovations was done the way it was. He addressed my questions, offered suggestions, provided a quote and had two electricians here the next morning. They were equally capable, and were done in two hours at a reasonable price. I will call them again when the need arises and will recommend them to anyone needing electrical work done.

I had rain water running into my breaker box. Called Ray electric at 1:30 in the afternoon and he was at my house by 3:00 the same day! He sealed the wire coming in, replaced my main breaker, and updated my electrical box to code. He was at my home until 6:30 that evening and didn’t up charge me for the after hours service. He resolved all the issues I had (even the ones I didn’t know I had) and did everything at a very reasonable and fair price in an extremely timely fashion. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone that needs help with their electrical concerns.

I asked Ray Electric to come to my house to work on some electrical issues. After scheduling an appointment, I waited patiently for them to arrive. I received no communication whatsoever. When I tried to follow up with a phone call, my call went unanswered. (Many other reviews reflect this).
I would not recommend Ray Electric to anyone. Their lack of professionalism and communication is unacceptable.

Terrible customer service waste of a call.

Had to get two inspections for my apt building and some box work done. He is often booked up, but very reasonable. The city came out to ok the work. City official told me his work is always quality.
Good guy, fair, honest.

Clayton and Tyler came out to run an outlet in my garage, arrived on time and worked efficiently. The electrical work was laid out neatly, and it was clear to see the pride they took in their work. Will definitely call on them again for future electrical work. First class!

We've used Entirewire twice. The first time, when this branch had just opened, was good. They upgraded our panel and ran some other lines, and did a professional, albeit messy, job.

The second time was for an issue on existing equipment. Our AC guy noticed a switch in the furnace room would shock him if he grounded it on the ductwork. I called Entirewire and they weren't available over the weekend---the on-call guy wouldn't answer, according to the answering service. They came out the following week. The guys were nice enough. They found the issue within literally one minute----a screw left loose by the landlord who owned this house before us. All in all, they were in and out in less than 10 minutes.

Guess how much the bill was? $250. Yes, two hundred and fifty dollars. Their website doesn't list this "troubleshooting" cost. They never mentioned it to me over the phone or when they arrived. So I ended up paying them $25 per minute, essentially, and when I questioned the cost, they were matter-of-fact and even somewhat condescending (I can save money on the credit card upcharge by mailing in my payment).

I was planning to replace the other panel and add a new kitchen circuit next year. But I will be looking for another electrician. They obviously don't mind price-gouging people (they know we're in a tight spot and have the advantage), and they don't seem to care about keeping customers.

Entirewire did an incredible job on my house. They did everything from installing a new electrical panel and meter box to Ethernet wiring to new recessed lighting and fan installations. Their work is impressively high quality and fast at the same time. Will continue to work them again in the future when I decide to do any electrical work. Compared to others in the area, pricing is very competitive.
