I recently had the pleasure of working with Delcollo Electric, specifically with the talented team of Darrell, Jyair, and Jack. We needed a new Tesla EV charger installed for our recently acquired electric car, and I couldn't be more pleased with the exceptional service they provided. Right from the start, their professionalism and attention to detail were evident. Before beginning the installation, they took the time to thoroughly explain the process, ensuring that I was well-informed about the work they were about to undertake. This transparency immediately instilled confidence in their expertise. The actual installation work was nothing short of pristine. Darrell, Jyair, and Jack displayed a remarkable level of skill and precision throughout the entire process. They worked efficiently and accurately, showcasing their proficiency in handling electrical projects. I was particularly impressed with their commitment to maintaining a clean and organized work environment, both inside and outside my property. What sets Delcollo Electric apart is not only the quality of their work but also their respect for the customer and their property. It was evident that they treated my home with care, leaving no mess behind and taking the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of the surroundings. In addition to their technical competence, the team exhibited excellent communication skills. They were patient in answering my questions, addressing any concerns I had, and providing valuable insights into the optimal functioning of the newly installed EV charger. Overall, my experience with Delcollo Electric was outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services. The combination of their expertise, professionalism, and genuine respect for the customer make them a standout choice for any electrical project. I am extremely satisfied with the new Tesla EV charger installation, and without a doubt, I will be reaching out to Delcollo Electric for any future electrical needs. Thank you, Darrell, Jyair, and Jack, for a job well done!

After searching for an electrician on a snowy Friday afternoon and finding the best appointment looked like a maybe Monday. I was lucky to find Delcollo with someone available. I do not care if this was luck, the work was fast and well done and I am forever grateful.

Dellcollo Electric is the only electrician I would call; they are prompt, efficient and professional. I had fixtures and faulty switches replaces, and they were happy to explain everything to me. They do not waste time or your money, making Delcollo a trusted, cost effective choice for home electrical repair. I feel safer knowing the job was done right.

They did a great job. They had to do a lot of searching to locate where it was broken. Very thorough and complete service.

wonderful service. Delcollo scheduled an appt for the day after I phoned them; their 2 electricians were extraordinarily professional, pleasant, skilled, thorough. They worked for almost 3 hours, searching for the bad wire --fixed! Lights back on!

The two Dal Callo electricians arrived early and immediately got down to business. Some what to my relief, it took some to unravel the "Creature" manner in which the trouble some switch had been wired; one they did, they replaced the old wires & brought things up to code. We're relieved and very pleased.

Rich the electrician arrived promptly, reviewed the issues with me and performed desired work. Impressed that Rich brought parts that he thought he might need for the job as he understood it which saved time. Appreciate that he took the time to explain the new timer to me.

Andrew came on very short notice at a time when it was difficult to get service.  He was very professional & knowledgeable.  I was very pleased with the service & I have recommended them.   The price was very reasonable.

Terrible, an utter nightmare.? I had never been sued before and the amount in controversy was trivial.? The suit was petty, vexatious and mean-spirited.? The company is cannot be trusted.
Response from Delcollo Electric
"(removed member name) this work was actually complete in 2001 and you are still upset 14 years later to give us a poor grade. The facts are you are an attorney and thought you didn't have to pay us for services rendered. We did have to take you to court for 300.00 it was the principal and not the money. We had our day in court and the Judge agreed with us and ordered you to pay us. So instead of agreeing that you may have been wrong you decided to go on line even 14 years later and say bad things about us. I'm sorry you feel that way, We have been in business 40 years and we work hard every day to do a good job at a fair price"

Putting in the transformer was fine and the price was fair. We thought maybe the GFI tripped the fuse on the sauna, but he could not fix the issue. He did spend some time here looking and testing it out, but he could not get it to heat up. He was honest enough to tell me before coming out that he did not know much about saunas. He did install a new GFI, it worked temporarily, but then would stop. Everyone was courteous and nice, but they just could not get this problem fixed.

This is the second time I've used Delcollo Electric, Inc. services.  The workmen were on time, prepared to do the work, completed the job in a professional manner, asked questions about specifics, inspected the finished work with me, and cleaned up after themselves.  Their work is high quality, done with care, and at a fair price.  I would recommend Delcollo to anyone needing household electrical work done.

8AM appointment, they arrived 1 hour late (a little after 9 o'clock). At 8:25, I called the office, and the operator was not particularly nice and especially not apologetic. She said the appointment was at 8:30, but they were running 20 minutes late, with no explanation. Surprising they were so late considering this was the first appointment of they day.
Guys were nice. One guy was being trained, and was supervised the entire time. The service took 15 minutes.
Pricing: $275 was the quoted price. Service took 15 minutes. I couldn't believe they would charge so much for a 15 minute service.

Delcollo electricians are prompt, courteous, and professional. They fully explained what they were going to do and were willing to change some things for me at the last minute, including adding an additional fan to another room. They were very clean, neat and efficient, and never complained about crawling into the attic space to run wires on one of the hottest days of the year!
I think that the pricing was fair, and by the hour (plus a few additional parts). They worked steadily without breaks until the job was completed, so I felt like I really got what I paid for. I would use them again without reservation.

We have had several issues with lighting at our commercial rental property. Overhead lighting has had problems needing ballast replacement and emergency lighting issues. Delcollo Electric has always responded to our calls quickly, scheduling was prompt and electrical issues fixed without a problem.

The estimator was personable. I asked him who would be sent out (checking on their experience and things). He gave me the name of a person. The person who came out was not the person the estimator indicated would be coming out. The helper who worked with the electrician was great and a hard worker. The electrician who came out was slow moving, a chauvenist, a know it all. He charged me for more time than he was supposed to. He did not fix one of the safety issue. He saved that issue (flickering light in guestroom - a concern due to aluminum wiring) for the end of the day and then seemed not to want to deal with it. He then said something about it being the switch, which he replaced. He also told me to replace the light bulb. Those were not the problems. A couple of days later, I saw sparks flying out of an outlet in that room. My house could have caught fire if the spark had caught my curtains (with my kids upstairs!). I called a different electrician, Gentle Ben. They came out and fixed the problem. On 8/16/09, after the Delcollo Electrician left, I looked at the bill closely and saw that he charged me for about 45 more minutes than he should have. I called the estimator and spoke with him about this. He said he'd talk to the electrician and call me back. He never did, presumably because I'd already paid the bill with a check and signed their "work performed" form.
