Electrical reviews in Bellevue, Washington

Obot is always there when I need them.

One of their drivers just blew a right light while I was crossing the street like I didn't exist.

On time. Courteous. Efficient. Would I use them again? Absolutely!

Awesome service from Jonathan. Knowledgeable, friendly, efficient.

Super thoughtful and communicative as they move through a project. Very professional and punctual.

These guys are the only place to go for all your electrical needs. Great communication and excellent service. Thanks!

On time. On budget.
Perfect work.
Thank you,
John N

I can't testify to their quality of work, but after the adult in van 13 passed my truck using the shoulder of highway 18 near I-90 and trying to take my bumper off to cut in front of me, I'd say there's a good chance they do whatever it takes to keep appointments, regardless of how many lives are risked in the process.

Obot team replaced a chandelier in our foyer. They were very professional and careful.

Brent from Obot is always responsive, timely and does a great job of communicating with me. Appreciate this professional team.

just correcting my previous error of posting. This firm and Brent H. did an outstanding job on repairing a very complicated electrical issue that I had.I have 10 plus years of working with this firm and Brent and it has always been positive plus. Bob C

Thank you to Jonathan who gave me the best possible outcome for repair of my beautiful Casablanca ceiling fan.

Lutron product is excellent! And the service and communication from point of ordering and thru installation was amazing! Thank you OBOT!

The. Finest. Electrical Contractor. In Seattle. For singular private and high rise multi-family residences, I can always rely on OBOT to take on the challenges of my projects and bring them to fruition both flawlessly and fully integrated with A/V, sun control, lighting and security systems, etc. A fully certified, licensed professional crew who are diligent and polite. I breathe easy on projects in their care.

OBOT Communicated well and sent a highly proficient electrician. He arrived on time, did excellent, brought the job to finished product, and cleaned up. First rate.

I have worked with OBOT Electric for several years, both thru my business and at my personal residence. In total, I've hired them 10 times or more. And it's a simple reason why I keep coming back -- they take care of me.

OBOT stands for On Budget On Time. That couldn't be more true. They have always been very responsive and professional. The prices are always fair. I have worked with Brent Hommertzheim, J Wright and Jeff Hope. I strongly endorse their whole team.

Brent was great to work with. He’s really smart, knowledgeable and figured out a goofy wiring issue that was done when the house was originally built. Highly recommend

Some good. Some not very good...

NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1) Maybe my fault, maybe theirs - We have a stairwell light that has 3 switches (top, front door, downstairs). After opening up and attempting to get some power to a room through the bottom light switch, we went another route. But now the top and front light switches only work if the downstairs switch is on.
It doesn't seem likely that the house was built stupidly, and also I never noticed this weird behavior for 13 years, so I mean... This seems more likely that it was this event. Occam's Razor

When I called him he was VERY confident, and a little impatient, that it could even be conceivable that when he shoved it all back in, maybe something happened.

I don't think I'm a complaining male Karen when I say that $1,200 for easy work, and I had to race to the store because they didn't have a decent amount of basic electrician supplies, AND they didn't know what the job was before they arrived, seems a bit pricey if you ALSO won't drive spend 7 minutes to drive 20 blocks, and 5 minutes just to make sure your customer is satisfied isn't how I run my businesses.
Even if the customer is an uneducated jackass. Just ABSOLUTELY ensure your quality and customer satisfaction, even if it's annoying for the HUGE time investment of 22 minutes.

2) They insisted on coming at 8:30 AM, even though I asked many times for an appointment later in the day. I work nights. So I got 45 minutes of sleep because they wouldn't budge.
Uh??? Do you stop work at 10AM? Or could you have actually done ANY other jobs first, so I could sleep?
To be clear, I said 3 times that I would wait for weeks or even over a month for a visit, if it could just be later in the day.

3) Initially talked to the old veteran guy. Explained everything to him. You'd expect he was taking notes or actually listening. But, then I get a surprise when they sent some young guy.
Who didn't have any idea what they job was...
Or what supplies he could bring (replace light fixture, misc stuff) Or even have a bunch of basic electrician stuff. More than just ONE ight switch, zero outlet covers??? Because, you know... You're electricians? Lol.

4) I had to initially call them twice and leave a message to get a callback.

GOOD
Everything fixed (it was very uncomplicated work)
So far, everything works
He explained things to me before doing them
He tried 2 different ways to get electricity in a room, and really looked for a solution (light switch, and then over
He really seemed to be trying to solve problems and stay productive when I had to go get the hardware myself
The nicest receptionist/appointment booker

Jonathan was extremely helpful in getting my panel situated so I can connect my generator. He explained everything and helped test everything to make sure we were good to go in case of a power outage.

Jonathan was fantastic. Very professional and made some great suggestions. Was cognizant of the costs and tried to keep the job as cost effective as possible. Was expensive, but I know I got a quality job done right.

Justin with ODOT, did the electrical work on our kitchen remodel. WOW, I can't say enough good things about their work and workers. They were very professional, took the time to talk about what was being done and made changes for us that made the finished product just what we wanted.

They saved me a lot of work and it looks GREAT! He came back to adjust the LED under cabinet lights so the countertops now really shine.
