    Dr. Electrical did a fantastic job for us restoring electrical power back to our barn. Joe gave us a careful and honest estimate. Zack and Sid came out did the installation and they did good work. Joe was on hand to supervise. A great job. I highly recommend Dr. Electric.

    Thanks Doctor Electric!ANOTHER excellent job.Thank you for not only installing my tv, but FINDING a broken dimmer switch, an outside socket that needed covering AND installing a whole house surge protector - I’m glad they brought those to my attention - all this from a tv install request :)

    We wanted to have a security camera installed on the exterior of our house. We have used Doctor Electric a number of times in the past and they have always done a great job. They did a great job this time as well. Installed a new GFCI outlet in our garage, a security camera overlooking the driveway, and ran a cable between the two. We have had Tom perform most of the work at our house and he always does a great job!

    Dr. Electric and technician Zack spent a lot of time at my place and with me as part of the annual safety inspection process --he was very thorough and helpful and patient, I learned a lot and became a more informed homeowner regarding my electric service and safety. The annual membership that includes this annual inspection and discounts on service is well worth the money and appreciated!

    I highly recommend Dr. Electric and Upstate Air for electrical work and heating and cooling services. Their reps are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly - excellent customer service! The company is also very responsive if you have questions or need help. I am so glad I switched to this company!

    Joe from Dr. Electric was very helpful when providing an estimate for an electrical project that I have. He listened to what the scope of the project was and provided suggestions on how the project would work. I would recommend Joe and Dr. Electric to anyone needing some electrical work done.

    Bob did a great job on assessing our electric updates & letting us know we need 3 units of fire alert & Co devices in our home -our current fire alert had expired. Also, any concerns we have -call anytime -to keep our home safe & Up to Date.

    I had an emergency situation where power was lost throughout a large section of the house. I had difficulty finding someone to respond, however Doctor Electric was able to respond within 4 hours to get Joe at my house and run through the diagnosis, resulting in getting RGE out to repair an external connection. Joe was meticulous and great to work with, explaining all the steps, processes and potential outcomes. I would definitely call on them the future.

    Colten, my electrician, was on time, very professional, very thorough, and explained everything to me up front. He did an excellent job with some of the work that I needed to get done. Not to mention, Dr.Electric’s prices are surprisingly reasonable and the quality of the work and materials they provide is exceptional! I would highly recommend DR. Electric to anyone. Five Stars for sure.

    This review may be lengthy but hopefully worth reading if you are considering this company for electrical work!We recently had an electrical meter box on one of the 50+ homes in our tract explode and cause a fire due to a short caused by an improperly installed electrical service line to that house. Apparently the incoming line lacked the in ground expansion loop that is required at time of service installation when the home is being built. Dr Electric provided the damaged home with a new service line (including the loop) as well as a new meter box and associated require accessories. They also noted the problem in a few other homes and as a service to the 50+ homeowners they provided each with a letter explaining that many additional homes in our neighborhood may also have the issue. As part of the letter, they offered a free inspection of each meter box, along with an assessment of each homes status and options to correct the problem.We decided to have them do such an assessment of our service line. We were given a very detailed / thorough explanation of our situation by Joe and Matt (owner) and decided to proceed with them and signed a contract proposal.On the day of the dig, even Matt the owner attended supervised and participated in the dig and the assessment / rectification of our incoming line problem. The dig reveled that we in fact did have the loop but was positionally installed improperly. He and crew rectified that condition and installed a new meter base, meter box, and expansion style incoming pipe. He also checked our grounding situation per code and found it met code. Initially thought we needed additional grounding, and reduced the price for that feature as well as for the ground loop which he did not have to splice. Obviously a very honest contractor. He even waited around for 2 hours after the completion of the job waiting for RG&E to show to turn on the power again (RG&E misplaced the order to start service again). They not only do quality work but obviously have integrity and honesty incorporated into their approach to business! Very satisfied with Matt and DR Electic! Thank you guys!

    Had Colton from Doctor Electric out today for a safety check up to renew our service plan. While here, the issues brought up were ones we were aware of and were looking to rectify -- actually received an estimate very quickly after the visit was over. On time, thorough and totally professional. Highly recommend Doctor Electric.

  • Review 12 (2023-02-07 - Rating: 5)

    The entire process from scheduling an appointment to the completion of the project was painless. The technicians Dan, Colin and Todd were prompt, knowledgeable and professional. Dan in particular was helpful and informative. They cleaned up after themselves and were thoughtful about my possessions. I was very pleased with this company and would use them again.

  • Review 13 (2020-09-29 - Rating: 5)

    The technicians from Doctor Electric did an exceptional job of replacing the fuse box and upgrading the lighting to my den and pantry area. Both associates came being polite and professional. The work was done in a timely fashion. Though it was a bit pricey I was assured that the work done was covered by warranties from them as well as the manufacturers. Overall Im pleased with the job and plan using them for future task.

  • Review 14 (2019-01-18 - Rating: 5)

    UPDATE January 2019 - My excellent experience in 2017 was surpassed by the entire team at Doctor Electric this past month when I had to have my entire service panel replaced. From the initial call-out (Thank you Joie for being so kind on the phone!) to each member of the team who treated my very serious issue with professionalism, sensitivity and speed (Thank you Joe, John and Mike!). You are all amazing and you have a client for life!-------------------------------------------------------Fast. Very reasonably priced. Exceptional handling of my job both technically and professionally!!! Highly recommend.

  • Review 15 (2019-06-01 - Rating: 5)

    I am not one to write reviews, but I would be remiss if I did not take a moment to call out the exceptional service we have received from Dr. Electric over the past few months. Each of the projects they have completed for us have been done with the utmost quality and professionalism. The customer service they provide is incomparable. They never miss an opportunity to let us know how much they value our business. We will continue to call on Dr. Electric for all of our electrical projects and we highly recommend their services to anyone seeking quality, reasonably priced, electrical work by a company the defines amazing customer service.

  • Review 16 (2022-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    Cant speak to their work yet but Dan came to do an estimate for a number of different electrical services. He was pleasant and respectful, took his time to understand the scope of the project(s) and offer solutions that worked for my aesthetic and budget. This was hands down the best interaction Ive had with a company to fix something at my house, ever. Looking forward to having the work done :]

  • Review 17 (2020-10-08 - Rating: 5)

    Found Doctor Electric by chance because I needed an emergency call. They came out right away, were very professional, thorough and helpful. Went above and beyond to get to the bottom of the problem even though it took multiple visits. Really were invested in making sure everything was fixed correctly. I will continue to use Doctor Electric and have already recommended them to friends and family.

  • Review 18 (2017-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent service! We were in a desperate situation when we lost power because of an outlet that caught fire. Fortunately Matt from Doctor Electric was in the area and was over within the hour. He was very professional, clean and thorough. He replaced two outlets and repaired the wiring that was burned badly. I was a bit concerned at what the cost was going to be and I was shocked (no pun intended) at how reasonable it was! I even questioned it to be sure it was fair! It’s great to have a service provider that does excellent work and can be trusted at a reasonable rate. I will use Doctor Electric in the future and most certainly will refer them to friends and family. Thank you Doctor Electric!

  • Review 19 (2017-12-11 - Rating: 4)

    Good first experience with Dr Electric. Several neighbors had recommended them. $54 service charge includes safety inspection, and any work you agree to will be additional. The technician was courteous, friendly and competent. My only complaint was the the pricing was a little high for something I could have done myself, but it saved me the time and the work is guaranteed (unlike my work). :)

  • Review 20 (2020-01-21 - Rating: 5)

    Dan provided a complete and informative explanation of the work to be done. He went the extra mile to insure complete satisfaction. He and Dan arrived right on time and did an exceptional job! I was totally satisfied with the work they performed and highly recommend Doctor Electric Thanks guys!

    Joe is one of the most professional service repairmen Ive ever met. He explains everything hes going to do and informs you of things you might want to work on in the future. Doctor Electric also the best customer service, always a pleasure to do business with.

  • Review 23 (2021-11-24 - Rating: 5)

    We had Doctor Electric install a heating lamp in the master bath. Dan came out and did a thorough assessment, worked up a quote, and then came back to do the install after sourcing the lamp. He did an amazing job, was super professional, and was a really cool guy too (bonus!). Definitely recommend them, and will be using them again for future projects!

  • Review 25 (2022-01-27 - Rating: 5)

    We had flickering lights - all through our home. Did not know why. Doctor Electric came out and spent a few hours, checking everything and fixing problems that were found. For the last 2 days - No flickering lights. Yeah!Thank you, Doctor Electric for great service and work. Your representative was professional, easy to talk to and cared about our issue. Great Job!!

  • Review 26 (2021-04-28 - Rating: 5)

    Doctor Electric was responsive and able to assist me in a timely manner. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs electric work inside or outside. Joe did an amazing job and very thorough in explaining the work.

  • Review 27 (2020-09-21 - Rating: 5)

    We recently moved into an old-ish house that had some electrical issues.On a first visit, Joe uncovered a bunch of code violations, dangerous wiring where the power comes into the house, and our meter was practically falling apart. Doctor Electric worked with RG&E to find a good time to shut off the power for some repairs. They came back the next week and fixed the dangerous wiring, installed a ground wire, and repaired our meter outside. When RG&E sent an inspector to come and sign off on the work, they had nothing but high praise for the work there + Doctor Electric in general.We ended up having some other smaller issues, like an outlet not working properly in our garage and called again. They came by right on time and were able to fix the issue within a couple of hours (installed 2 GFI + 1 normal outlet in the garage).I will say that the price is a bit high, but I dont mind paying it when I know that things are getting done correctly.

  • Review 28 (2019-01-29 - Rating: 5)

    We had multiple issues happening at the same time which Tom spent the day figuring out and fixing for us... from GFCI outlets malfunctioning to a questionable whole house surge protector. He delivered quality service and all with a smile! Thanks Tom!!!

  • Review 29 (2022-05-10 - Rating: 5)

    I am so happy that I hired Doctor Electric to rewire the entire house. Their communication was great, the staff came on time, all very professional. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for an electrical job. Wonderful company!

  • Review 30 (2022-09-09 - Rating: 5)

    My tenant called me to let me know that the lights were going out when appliances came on. I was concerned that there was a real danger and called to see if someone could come out right away. An electrician was there in a couple hours. Coordinated with my tenant and diagnosed a bad main breaker. Took photos of the damage and made the repair. Very professional.

  • Review 31 (2022-10-12 - Rating: 5)

    We have an old home with a complex broken circuit. Tricky problem but they stuck around til it was fixed and then came back for a free checkup when we caused an issue with too many space heaters shortly thereafter! Were lucky to have found reliable and available electricians in Rochester.

  • Review 32 (2021-06-11 - Rating: 5)

    Very responsive and willing to keep working until they do the job right. My hats off to you folks I was very impressed with everyone who represented your company. Your willingness to solve my issues was I would consider above and beyond my expectations. Again I thank the two reps that came out to my home.I highly recommend Doctor electric. Your company culture is impressive.

  • Review 33 (2019-08-29 - Rating: 5)

    Came in, were very considerate of my flooring. Listened to my problems, found the culprit, showed me the issues and talked to me like an intelligent person. Gave me options, let me pick, and then got the work done quickly. I didnt have to get RG&E or the inspector- they took care of everything. Will definitely call them if I ever have any other issues

  • Review 34 (2021-07-06 - Rating: 5)

    John was very professional and extremely knowledgeable during the initial diagnosis visit. He was very thorough in his explanation of the issue and what needed to be done to solve the problem. The issue involved no power running to our pool motor and a very out-dated timer. John was very helpful in getting me a quick follow up appointment for the new timer installation. Very satisfied!

  • Review 35 (2022-05-26 - Rating: 5)

    We needed someone to dig and expose underground service wires at the utility pole. Replace wiring from approximately 10 from pole and install grounding wire at the pole. We also had work done to our outside electrical box. Work was completed with great expertise. The person that answered our first call was so kind and help full. She and Matt (the electrician) who called us answered our questions and developed a work plan to fix our problem.

  • Review 36 (2022-06-29 - Rating: 5)

    Had load issues. Almost everything that uses electricity in the house was affected. Lights dim fans slow etc...... Conrad did what he could to reduce some of the load on a few circuits. Replaced a circuit that could have caused a major issue. He suggested that I have RGE come out and take a look. And he was RIGHT. Neutral from pole to house was getting chewed on by squirrels. They replaced and all is good. Thank you Conrad for all you did. Above and beyond.

    We recently purchased a house and called Doctor Electric to do a safety inspection and get a quote for a few minor updates. Matt did a very thorough inspection, including finding a rusting, uncovered exterior outlet that myself and the inspector we hired before purchasing missed. He was incredibly courteous and professional and took the time to answer all of my questions and explain his safety recommendations thoroughly without trying to oversell me. The prices he quoted were very reasonable and he completed the requested work quickly. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience and I feel confident in the work that he did. Well definitely be using them for any electrical work we need going forward.

  • Review 76 (2021-05-21 - Rating: 5)

    Got 4 estimates. 2 actually followed thru with quotes. One quote was detailess via one line text. Tom walked me through every step needed. Quote was competitive and presentation way more professional. The truck also has almost everything they could need including extra wire which was needed as my usual mission creep required an extra couple hundred feet. Dr Electric is worth a premium rate and I dont think my $1k job would have been done a lot cheaper. Knowing they are bonded and insured is also a bonus.
