Protech Electrical Services

Two names surface again and again in Protech Electrical Services' reviews — Rey and Malvin — and almost always on the same kind of job: a ceiling fan swapped out, an outlet replaced, lighting run through a room. This is a family-owned electrical shop on Sanger Street in Northeast Philadelphia, doing residential and commercial installs, repairs, and 24/7 emergency work. The company says it has been at it for about 15 years and covers Philadelphia plus Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks counties. The history behind that is deep and steady: 245 reviews since 2021 across five sources. Google sits at 5.0 from 360 ratings; on Thumbtack they carry Top Pro status at 4.9 from 327 reviews, hired more than 400 times. Recent jobs track the same rhythm — a dead ceiling fan pulled and replaced in about an hour, multiple outlets and switches installed in a single afternoon, a sump-pump outlet added while another outlet that wasn't up to code got fixed and explained step by step. One customer in March noted the technician showed up on time, didn't try to up-sell, and charged exactly what was quoted. Speed and a light touch on the sell are the through-line here — people keep describing quick visits, clear explanations, and prices that matched the estimate. What's worth pinning down before booking is the license. Thumbtack lists a verified Pennsylvania Home Improvement Contractor Registration and a passed background check, and the company describes its technicians as trained at Pennco Tech; a Home Improvement Contractor registration, though, is not the same as an electrical license, so ask which credential covers your specific job. For everyday residential electrical work around Northeast Philadelphia — fans, fixtures, outlets, and code fixes — Protech is a well-reviewed, established choice with a long positive history. Confirm the exact license for your job and get the scope and price in writing before the work starts.
