Best Wiring Lighting in Seattle WA
It was the absolute worst experiences I had with any service providers. If I could give it negative stars I would. DO NOT recommend!
1. It took took them 4 visits spanning an entire month and a bunch of excessive charges to complete some basic fixes
2. The estimates they provided were largely inaccurate for what needed done
3. They sent an inexperienced electrician who was not very skilled to my house. He spent many hours and couldn't figure out what was going on and yet they kept charging me with diagnosis at full rate
4. The owner was extremely rude and impatient. When I called to discuss the charges, he talked over me, kept interrupt me, and hung up on me. I was shocked by his rudeness.
Below are the details. In hindsight, visit 2 and 3 are completely inefficiency due to the first electrician's lack of experience. And yet I was still charged. Overall it was a very unpleasant experience. Definitely don't wish it upon anyone else.
Visit 1: Charged for 1 hour, $200
Initial diagnosis. The electrician told me he needs to come back for the ceiling. Estimated an additional hour needed plus fixing 7 outlets.
Visit 2: Charged for 2 additional hours of diagnosis, $400
It turned out the 7 plugins did not require for any repair, which was the total opposite of what the electrician estimated. He diagnosed the fan in living room but no clear conclusion on why it was not working. The technician told me he needed to come back with a colleague again for the ceiling.
Visit 3: Charged for 1 hour of diagnosis plus some fixes, $500
2 technician did the trouble shooting. The living room fan still had no power. They told me they need to come back again and run a power source to get the fan going.
Visit 4: Charged for fixing the ceiling fan, $600+
Work quoted: 4 hours of complex work
Work performed: The more senior electrician finished the job in less than an hour. Yet I was still charged for the highest end of the estimate.

Re: Igor the owner
I'm not sure which of the following qualifies as a nice conversation in your book, and if any of them does, we probably live on different planets.
- Cutting me of mid conversation repeatedly, constant interruption, talking over me
- Hanging up on me before I can get a word in
- Failing to reach a mutually agreed upon solution
Putting up a facade on a public forum like Google does not make the past experience nice either. Doing good work and ensuring your customer's satisfaction is what counts. In my month long interaction with you and your company, the minimum bar was not met.
I stand by my original review. Not Recommend.

Great company, refreshingly nice and honest. I hired All Wire for an emergency electrical repair and I will hire them again for more electrical work in the future.

Hooray for a company that actually shows up on time! Thank you Mr. Electric for also hiring personable employees who are easy to talk to and make you feel comfortable in your own home...that's a huge plus for this stay-at-home mama. I will gladly do business again with Mr. Electric & I'll be sure to tell my friends & family.

George came over to our house within a day to fix our broken light fixture that was hanging from the ceiling. He was a very professional and knowledgeable electrician!

Planned out a project with Jesus for a significant overhaul of the knob and tube wiring in my house. He was very easy to work with and not only pointed out some concerns that needed to be addressed but offered ways to approach the project at a few different price points and stages. I plan to work with him on a separate project later in the year.

So thrilled with the lightening fast response and kind service of Patricia in the office and Filby who replaced my outlet. Wow all around! Highly recommend!

Jim H. arrived on time and walked through all of the options for replacing our old, noisy wall heaters. He even recommended a heat pump for our main floor after asking some questions about where we spend the most time. I greatly appreciated his ballpark costs of various solutions and look forward to scheduling work when the estimate comes in.

In order to fix a light that wasn't functioning properly, I contacted an electrician. He was able to put the device back together and replace the glass. He completed the task in within 30 minutes, and his charge was reasonable given the high caliber of his work.

They responded to my Home Depot Pro Referral request but then proceeded to have miscommunication after miscommunication on who to actually send to do the job. Nobody showed up, then the wrong person showed up, and then nobody showed up again. The wrong person who came wasn't even capable of doing low voltage work and I still had to pay him a $120 fee just for driving out. Rather than doing the job themselves, they tried to get me to scam Comcast into doing it for free. Did not get a refund for the fee, didn't even get the task worked on at all.

Pat is amazing! He is booked for weeks, but worked late to help me with an electrical emergency at one of the rentals I manage.

Very pleased with quick services. Did a fantastic job. Will use you again.

I had Economy Wiring come and install two new gas fireplace stoves. They had to extend the gas piping and punch it through the wall. They also had to cut through the wall in two places for the vent ducting. The installation was great and very thorough. All sealed, square, aligned and looking good! Tyler and his helper (so sorry I forgot his name) were fast, courteous, always wearing their masks, and the clean up was excellent. Pricing was super fair and Tyler spent extra time making sure I fully understood the fireplaces and how they should work. I had purchased the new fireplaces somewhere else and had installed an aftermarket thermostat prior to them installing the fireplace and I had installed it incorrectly. Tyler knew exactly what to do and didn't give me any grief about having to fix my error. I'd say that he is a true salesman and has all the best qualities of customer service, repair technician, carpenter, electrician and gas piping plumber! A new addition to Economy and a good one!

I was reccomended to Mister Sparky from one of my buddies. I just moved to Seattle so and have never needed an electrician before but the guys were great. Really professional and clean. Totally recommend them.
