As usual, excellent service. Nate explained what was needed to solve various problems and issues. I was then able to make good decisions that would work best for me. Good communication was provided throughout the job. All the staff were very pleasant and easy to interact with.
I've used Shocking Difference before for smaller jobs and this big job was done with the same precision, skill, and pleasant staff. Plus the cost seems reasonable....which is always welcome.
Thank you! -
Manny and his partner came out to look at our stove, and a couple of light fixtures in the house. He saved us a ton of money (over $570) by giving his opinion and not recommending troubleshooting and diagnostics based on his professional experience. We also got a very reasonable quote for ceiling light and fan fixture installations and we plan to use Shocking Difference in the future for that job. 10/10 service, and both men were friendly, honest, and upfront about what was needed and what wasn't needed

Jared and Josh were amazing. Knowledgeable, pleasant and professional, they did a thorough electrical inspection and installed an EV charger. Highly recommended!

They arrived fast installed a new meter on house. Max worked overtime to get it done.
Excellent job. Reasonable cost! Had my power on that evening! -
Jacob and his coworker came out and installed a new line for my hot tub. It took a short amount of time, looks beautiful, and it was very reasonably priced.
10/10 will be calling them next time! -
Shocking Difference was a positively shocking difference! Chuck, Josh, and Darryl were wonderful to work with and obviously knowledgeable and good at what they do. They were very informative, professional, kind, and polite. Brenda, Brent, and Winona in the office were fabulous as well. We would absolutely recommend Shocking Difference to anyone and will use them for any future electrical needs. Thank you, Shocking Difference!

I ordered the Ring Doorbell Camera for my front door, and the Ring Security Camera with Light for above my garage, from Amazon. I’m clueless when it comes to installing electronic devices. So, I searched Google and Yelp for local electricians.
I read about Shocking Difference’s history: they’ve been serving South Puget Sound communities since 2006. Their electricians are licensed and they attend continuing education classes. They warrant their work three years on labor. They also do an overall inspection of electrical circuitry throughout your home.
I called and inquired for an appointment on a Monday. Brent answered my call and asked if I’d be available the next day. I said yes. My appointment was set at 11 AM - 1 PM Tuesday. Tuesday morning, I received a text message from SD, asking if I’d be available at 8 AM. Journeyman electrician, Jacob Johnson arrived shortly. Jacob was friendly and eager to complete the task! I informed Jacob what I wanted to be done. Jacob went into the attic to see the electrical wiring. He then worked on an estimate. Given the amount of work required to complete the tasks, I was given what I felt was a fair estimate. Jacob called for another electrician to assist him. Apprentice electrician Jordan (I don’t know his last name) arrived, and they started to install the doorbell camera at the front door, and the security camera above the garage. The job took just under four hours. Both Jacob and Jordan helped me with the Ring Application on my iPhone. They took their time and I never felt rushed.
Brent was very pleasant when he took my call for the appointment. Both Jacob and Jordan are very skilled electricians and I am very pleased with their work product. I highly recommend Shocking Difference electrical contractor!

Wow. These folks are great. They arrived in their time window, listened and looked. After going over the trip few and the immediate costs, which we gave the thumbs up, they evaluated our electrical problem and performed an 11 point inspection. Once completed they politely and professionally went over our electrical in detail (broken up into inside, outside, areas etc) and how our house rated. We were happy it wasn’t all F’s. The D’s were not a shock. They very politely went over the costs for different levels or repairs so we could choose what fit our needs and budget. We went with repairs and replacement that we needed and had originally called for. We also elected to have our breaker box updated and brought up to code. All choices were up to us. Once started they kept us in the loop and what all repairs (new wiring, replacement plugs and a new breaker and main switch- old 1979 box did not have this). Once the permits are cleared they will return and place the new box. We were extremely pleased with the service, professionalism and friendliness of our service electricians. Loved how we were kept in the loop every step of the way and how careful they were with our home, cleaning up behind themselves and being cognizant of how their work looked after completion. Extremely knowledgeable in their jobs which they obviously loved. 10/10 will hire them again for future wiring needed when we update our Master bath. See photo of electrician keeping me updated.

Yasser came out to give a bid on a whole house generator. The entire process was crystal clear and transparent. One of the management team also reached out and answered all my questions. It was a great experience so far.
-
The front end experience, requesting service, was efficient and easy. The electricians came when promised. They assessed the work needed, provided the estimate and were ready to get the job done. They were polite when I said I wanted to wait for another estimate and came out quickly when I decided to go with them.

Great service from Shocking Difference. I was surprised on how quickly they were able to schedule the repair.
Our backup generator failed with an "Over Crank" error. Yasser was able to diagnose the issue as a bad fuel solenoid and a weak battery. He replaced both, then ran a test of the transfer switch and the generator panel in the house. It's nice to have it back online. Thanks again to Shocking Difference! -
We have used Shocking Difference for a few projects and they have always been very communicative, friendly and very easy to work with. Would highly recommend to any business owner in the area. Winona was very helpful with billing and appointment setting, and the crew they have sent each time are very professional. Great work!

Max and Pheron were knowledgeable, patiently answered all my questions before starting work. They worked quickly and efficiently and got the job done. It was more costly than I thought it would be, but they offered a discount for doing a total upgrade rather than just a few fixtures. It’s great to work with a local company.
-
The team was super courteous and professional. I had old exterior safety lights that weren't working but didn't know anything else about them. Chuck and Jordan were able to see what I had, see what I needed, and get new lights installed in about an hour. I'll definitely go with them again for any other electrical work I may need.

We were new to the area and needed an electrican. Because we wanted to move our washer/dryer down stairs, we asked our plumber if he knew a good electrical company. He recommended Shocking Difference. Our electrician Chuck very patiently listened to our plan to move our washer/dryer downstairs and to set up new lighting in our home. He clearly outlined the cost, time requirements and materials needed for the job. SD's crew, Chuck +plus, showed up on time, worked steadily and got the job done. We are impressed with the quality of the work and the professionalism of the electrician and their shop. There is no question, if we need an electrian we will call Shocking Difference.

Jordan was a very personable electrician who exhibited depth of knowledge and diligently went about the task of inspecting our entire home for electrical integrity. He was very respectful and did not use the opportunity to talk me into doing unnecessary repairs. I am very pleased with his service and the report generated by his work. Thanks! We are members so the inspection was at no cost to us.

This company is amazing. We were having concerns over our electricity and called shocking difference for peace of mind. Jared went above and beyond to ensure accuracy and reliability during the estimate phase. He stayed longer than what was scheduled for us and his customer service skills were amazing. On top of that, when the electricians came out, both Manny and Jordan, they were extremely friendly. They arrived exactly on time, made us feel comfortable with their presence in our home, and went above and beyond when we had a few extra concerns we forgot to mention to Jared. I couldn’t recommend this company enough. At the time of writing this review, Jordan was an electrical trainee being trained by Manny, Manny did a thorough job training Jordan and Jordan was fantastic. He’ll make a great electrician.

The initial visit was to assess the needs to upgrade our 40 year old electrical system to code, add a few outside outlets and to replace and enlarge the electrical panel. SD (Jacob, lead electrician) spent 3 hours assessing our needs, answering our questions and formulating a very detailed estimate with options….sort of a menu from which we could select the work to be done.
Jacob and the crew were all so very polite, Very patient respectful of our property and had excellent communication with us as they proceeded to work on the two days they were at our home.
They took additional pictures ( While they were working) of things they saw in our attic and under the home that may need attention. (Since we had mold near our roof line we can take care of that immediately.)
There was a crew of four who worked for two entire days at our home. They were respectful of our space, polite, and left the place cleaner than when they arrived.
The owners of the company have high expectations of their employees, and have the utmost integrity in their business operations.
We chose to hire Shocking Difference after reading many many stellar reviews. We’re thankful we did. -

Our electrician Mr Dunn was friendly , courteous and extremely knowledgeable , he provided us with experienced opinions and made this quote easier to understand… and to our suprise he also provided a multipoint inspection of our home electric system. Highly recommend them -
We did an electrical upgrade to our house with Shocking Difference. It was a big job and a lot of work. They did an excellent job, as they always do. They pulled all of the permits and managed the project. They gave us an estimate and adjusted accordingly at the end. They are honest hard working people that do the work right the first time. We have had smaller work done by them in the past and chose to go with them again based on our experience with them. We will always get our work done by them because of they are excellent at what they do and always a pleasure to work with.

They were super fast at responding to my request. Jared came out the next day and completed the job. He was very thorough & easy to work with.
