Reviews of local pros in Rankin, Pennsylvania

Thrilled with how fast the turn around on our troubleshooting visit was - messaged late evening New Year day, Mark was at our door by 10:00 the next day. Out cat made a new best friend, too.

Nicholas has done several jobs for us from installing ceiling fans and lights, an upgraded panel to a second house knob and tube rewire. they always do an excellent job at a reasonable price.

I had a service line and service panel replacement done on my residence and was pleased to work with Nicholas Electric. They were priced well under the other bids I received, I had a detailed written estimate of the work emailed to me the same day the service manager came out to the property. They were able to get me on the schedule within 2 weeks of signing the estimate. Everyone I worked with was prompt, professional, and friendly.

John gives excellent customer service, a through inspection, tells the truth, doesnt price gauge - and his team gave prompt and professional service when updating my electrical in my old house. Will only be using them moving forward. Highly recommend!

This review is long overdue but Jim, John and all of their guys did a GREAT job when we had a knob and tube issue at our house. They did the initial inspection, talked us through the dangers/options and came in with the lowest estimate. Throughout the process they were very professional and timely. They also did a nice job installing a ceiling fan and some new light fixtures. If we need any more electrical work done, Nicholas Electric are the only guys we will call!

I have a 100 year old home in Squirrel Hill that had the original knob and tube wiring.
I chose Nicholas Electric to re-wire the entire home. I was 100% satisfied with the work they did. They stuck to the original estimate despite the fact that old homes are full of surprises and difficulties. The workers were always on time and were a pleasure to deal with. Since the work was done I've had no problems whatsoever.
As the owner of an old house I've had to deal with many different types of contractors. I wish they could all be as reliable, professional, and trustworthy as Nicholas Electric!

We call John and his team for all of our electric work. Nicholas Electric was recommended to me years ago by my friend Brian after they rewired his entire house. They’re alway punctual, professional, and do a great job at an excellent price. From big jobs- all new basement lighting - to small jobs they always respond to my requests. They just installed a ceiling fan with remote in my hallway in less than an hour. My husband would still be unpacking the box. Highly recommend!

Tim, Callum, Mason, and Nicholas Electric Co as a whole were absolutely excellent. We purchased a house a while ago and it had questionable wiring ( to say the least). Spoke with John Byrd about a total rewire, got a quote, and agreed to a time. The price was fair, there was a high quality of work and craftsmanship, and they were even patient and helped us set up smart systems/ lighting for our home.

Finally, they were very careful in making holes in the walls- so your walls wont resemble Swiss cheese. Also, the holes they made were small and easily patched ( a big concern of ours). Our experiance was great and we passed inspection no problem. I can't recommend Nicholas Electric Co enough to anyone who needs anything electrical done. They're a Solid company.

Very customer focused, efficient ,assess and resolve issues quickly. Full confidence in Jim,John,Drew and appreciate their knowledge and timely communication and responsiveness. Highly recommend and will use for any future issues. Thank you!

We had an excellent experience with Nicholas Electric. They returned my initial call promptly, and squeezed us in to fix an urgent issue. We had a list of other electrical work which John promptly returned a quote for. He was patient in answering all my questions, and a very reliable communicator.

On the day we arranged for the rest of the work, his crew showed up exactly on time, and unprompted put on masks and laid out a ground cloth to keep our floors clean. They efficiently went about our list, keeping us updated on their progress and again answering our questions thoroughly. Everyone on the crew seemed highly skilled and professional. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Absolutely the best. They have done big and small jobs for me - and they show up when they say they will be there. To boot, they are honest. They recommended cheaper fixes when they could have made more money. I highly recommend.

The folks at Nicholas replaced knob and tube in our older home. Not only did they finish the job ahead of schedule, but they went above and beyond to ensure our home was neat and tidy every day. Other electricians told us the job would be so messy we could not even consider living at home during the work. Tim and his crew were so careful and clean that we really had no trouble living in the house while they worked. Communication was excellent throughout the project. They did every piece of the job as we expected and accommodated small changes as needed. We absolutely love the outdoor ceiling fan they added for us on the porch. If you’re looking to replace knob and tube or do other large electrical projects, I can’t recommend Nicholas highly enough. I wish I could give more than five stars!!!

I would unreservedly recommend Nicholas Electric Co. to anyone looking for a reputable electrician. We have had them out twice once for an estimate and once for the work and both times, Jim, was wonderful, efficient and explained what they were doing. Jim got us an estimate emailed out the same day, was wonderfully responsive via email, and it was a breeze to get scheduled. I would absolutely turn to them again and have recommended them to my friends!

-After Jim provided a comprehensive quote, Drew and Mason re-wired my house, removing the knob-n-tube. Colm and Tim even helped one day. I must admit, I was very reluctant to proceed as I have always thought I would need to move out to have that process completed. Not the case!!
-In addition, to re-wiring the house, they installed a new subpanel, new basement lights, new closet lights, many GFCI and 3 new ceiling fans. The first set of new fans were mostly defective, so they had to install 6 fans in actuality.
-At the end of each day, they thoroughly cleaned each room so that I could enjoy the space. I was told I might need 2-3 3-inch round dry wall holes per room, but they were able to complete the work with <50% of that amount. Incredible!
-Every member of the team, including John, was forthright and conscientious. Even the code enforcement associate indicated that he has been admiring their work for years, and that my basement looked like new.
-Even if you can get a better quote, it would be a mistake to use anyone else. (And what a relief that potential electrical safety issue has finally been remedied!)

Nicholas Electric came to tackle two smaller jobs in my house this morning and did a great job. In and out in less than 3 hours, service was friendly, and the price was really reasonable. Would use again in a heart beat!

We needed to upgrade our service, replace our old pushmatic breaker box, and run a dedicated circuit for a newly installed dishwasher. The team was incredibly professional and easy to work with from initial outreach to job completion. John was super responsive and detailed in his estimate. When the team showed up to do the work, they were also very professional and respectful of our home (and made sure to keep the basement door closed so the cats/dog wouldn't run out!). The job was finished a little earlier than planned, the job site was clean, and the team walked me through everything they did. I'll definitely be reaching back out if I have future electrical projects.

We just had these guys do a whole house rewire (like many people in this review section) and genuinely couldn't be happier. The estimate walkthrough and resulting report were very thorough and we were talked through every line item. The price was reasonable given the extent of work and after we felt a high degree of confidence in their knowledge and skill. We were not disappointed!

These guys are communicative and responsible. Mark, the team lead, was particularly excellent as was his associate Nick - very friendly, reliable, punctual, considerate, and organized. Mark knew what was going to happen at the beginning of the day and what had happened by the end. We had to work from home while they were there and they were great partners in making sure we knew where the noise or dust was going to be. They also did an excellent job tidying up at the end of every evening.

A total rewire is invasive and expensive, there's mess after everyone's left, but with Nicholas Electric all efforts were made to make the entire ordeal as smooth and painless as possible. We're so delighted to have found such a reliable team. We've already recommended them to several friends - thanks, guys!

Highly recommend these guys, they finished the job a previous electrician started and didn't finish and did a great job, nice clean work and scheduled me in right away. Will definitely be using them again

We recently had a new breaker panel and exterior outlets installed and a dedicated line run to my shed. To say that I am completely pleased with the work done by Steve and Frank of Nicholas Electric would be an under statement. Everything was handled in a timely and professional manner, from the estimate done by John Bird to the final clean up. It was a pleasure to work with these guys and have them in my home. No one could have taken my request and planned and executed the installation any better than Steve did. They have my highest recommendation.

We’ll only be using Nicholas Electric moving forward! They solved what another electrician quoted us thousands for, in under an hour, with a simple and safe fix. They were on time, knowledgeable, and getting a service appt was quick and easy.

Nicholas Electric was amazing! We had k&t in our home and they were able to fix our issue in under an hour. Very friendly and easy to communicate with. I will be using them for all future electrical needs!
