Electrical reviews in Akron, Ohio

Mark and Tim were great. You can tell it’s a company that wants to Do a good job for their customers. They our professional, quick and they leave the areas clean after they work. I am so pleased that I had gotten a reference to use them and I will certainly give them references to other people to use them. I highly recommend them.

Your drivers are horrible. Almost hit my car speeding in school zone etc.

I am extremely happy to be the provider of storage and office solutions to the J W Didado team. Their dominance in the field of transmission, distribution, substation, emergency & storm restoration has made them not only a force to be reckoned with in the Midwest, where they are headquartered, but also on the East Coast, where we partner with them. While Dan, Maria, and Michelle do a fantastic job of running the company, they were wise to have brought Jake, Ashley, Jenny, Inez, Max, Kevin, and Peter into the fold. I highly recommend them!

My family was heading to a third day without power after the storms struck Pennsylvania. I had just received a notification from our local power company saying that it could possibly be restored on May 3rd by 11 pm. Two more days, I was frustrated. Then I saw trucks going up the road with your logo on it. I Googled it and found out they were an electrical contractor company out of Akron. A few hours later our power was on!

Thank you so much for coming to Pennsylvania and helping us like you did! I am a very grateful Pennsylvanian recipient of your expertise!

Clearly from the one star review 4 weeks ago safety to the public still is not a concern. For one of your drivers to be speeding over 80 mph to cut me off, almost hit the front of my vehicle, and take an exit immediately when there was where no cars behind me is ridiculous. I would never allow a company in my house to work on anything if that is how they conduct themselves outside of the house. Do better.

This company clearly has zero concern for public safety. Their drivers think it’s acceptable to back massive utility trucks into live traffic on public roads without a spotter, without warnings, and without a shred of common sense. It’s reckless and completely unacceptable for a company that’s supposed to be working around power lines and public infrastructure.

If this is how little they value safety in plain sight, I can only imagine how careless they are with the work no one sees. A company dealing with electricity should be held to the absolute highest standards, but instead they’re endangering drivers and pedestrians every single day.

Stay far away from these clowns. If you see one of their trucks on the road, give them plenty of space—because clearly they won’t give you any.

"back logged". What a joke. I spoke with a Dan Reese about hiring JWD for a possible 6 figure commercial project for my company. I showed him nothing but seriousness and spent hours communicating with him and showing him around our building. He said he would get back to my with an estimate within 10 business days. 3 weeks later I finally receive an email from him saying he's going to pass my estimate on to a coworker to help reduce the time. Another week after that, now 30 days since we first spoke and I finally get him on the phone where he admits it could possibly be 2 or more months before he will have time to get my estimate together. So why answer the phone? Why take new customers if you "don't have time"? Why give me the run around and tell me 10 business days, wait a month and then tell me 2 more months? What a joke with horrible communication. I'm glad I found out now rather than mid project with $100k on the line. I would think twice before spending your valuable time with this company. Dan Reese gives them a bad name.

I did not personally hire JW Didado, but I am extremely grateful that West Penn Power had them do work on the electric lines in our area! When the wind blew a little, we lost power. We had many storms that left us in the dark for days...Since they worked on the lines this summer, we have had no power outages...NONE! The crew kept us informed of any disruptions to our power and were very professional while they were in our area. Thank you so much for the amazing difference you made in our service. Grateful in western PA!!

Very helpful. Prompt service

The best company ever. They also are very nice.
The best drivers ever. We were outside doing a truck honk motion and he honked like 50 times. He was really nice driver. 5 stars

RUDE

I called to get a quote. Was very rude and before I could ask he hung up and said he was too busy. Horrible!

Late in the day the owner himself comes over and figures out a problem that 2other journeymen could not then fixes it . Highly recommended.

Called late in the day, he came over right away. Super nice and had the issue fixed within an hour. Thank you so much. Adding him to my phone book, he will be the only electrician I use from now on.

They did an excellent job hard wiring my shed with its own circuit breaker, along with outside landscaping lights with timer, along with electrical hook up on Deck for Hot tub

Good service, good guys. And the coffee's good.

Been coming here for years. Always a friendly welcome and they’re very helpful.

A very welcoming environment as soon as you stepped through the doors and they always make sure that you get exactly what you need. I’ll help you find what you didn’t know you needed.

I've been using this Akron location for many years now. The counter guys have always been super helpful. The branch usually has all the common goodies you'll need in stock, and can get the oddball stuff in with short lead times. The customer service is what sets this branch apart and keeps me happily going to these guys.

Non responsive after 3 messages left.. no direct answer. Had to call different provider

Wonderful
