A-Z ELECTRIC INC — Local services in Cranford

We chose A-Z Electric to upgrade our electrical panel from 100 to 200 amps after getting estimates from a few companies. We have a 1948 Cape Cod and started having problems with lights flickering when other items were in use. We chose to also add four dedicated lines for a freezer, the washer, my husband’s computer and my office. Pawel and Devon, who work in the office, and I kept each other informed of updates from PSE&G, the town regarding permits, scheduling the date for the install and the inspection. They are both a pleasure to work with and handled all paperwork. They helped me understand the process of this job from beginning to end. Their experience shows! And yes I researched A-Z as I do any company who works on our home. The date of the install was December 1, 2022. The crew of five guys showed up promptly at 8am and got right to work. First thing they did was put down tarps from the front door to the top of my basement steps. My basement is unfinished with an open ceiling. They also wore paper booties when they deemed it necessary. Two guys worked on the outside upgrading the wiring from the top of the supply line where it attaches to the house to where it comes into the basement and the meter box. Our old rusty conduit pipe was replaced with PVC. The other three guys got busy working on the inside removing our two old circuit breaker boxes, installing the large new one and running new lines. They also added new ground posts and wires for code. Everything went beautifully. The crew worked so well together. Constant communication. They were very informative and nice enough to answer an old lady's questions and concerns. They also felt free to ask me questions about location of receptacles, etc. They were amazingly clean. Any mess from installation was cleaned up before they left. They also filled the hole from the entry of our old supply line into the basement with hydraulic cement. I was also very impressed that Steve and Taki(sp) took the time to label the breakers in the new panel. This will help so much in the future. Steve also explained that the new dedicated breakers had their GFI incorporated into them instead of the outlet and what to do if one tripped. He also explained how the surge protector attached to the new box works and gave me warranty papers. Inspection is next and date is set. Photos are attached. Installing the outlet to my office on the first floor had to fit in a tight space between the pipes for our hot water heater, the pipes going to a second floor radiator and a cable line. I was amazed. I hope it shows in the photo. I highly recommend...

We’ve had A-Z Electric (AZE) do work for us before. They did a great job on our generator installation and did a big interior wiring job for us as well. Both were done well, on time, and within the quoted estimate. This is the first time we’ve called them in a panic. We had a tree come down and rip the electric service off of the house so that it was laying in the ground. We emailed AZE that night (at midnight) and they responded immediately. They just needed pictures of the service to put the estimate together and had the quote and their crew out to us the following morning!!! As has been our experience in the past, they took care of all of the permitting work (we just had to drop it off) and spoke to the electrical inspector that morning to schedule inspection and ensure we could get power restored that day. The crew that did the work was friendly, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and followed up with me on progress of the job. They were done within the time they said and the site was cleaned up as if they had never been there. It’s no exaggeration when I say that A-Z saved us out of the pit of despair. This all occurred 5 days before Christmas. Ever try scheduling work around a holiday? Will absolutely hire AZE again, in a heartbeat. Thanks again Devin and the crew at A-Z Electric!!!

14AUG2025 UPDATE AZE was here for scheduled service on our generator. What I love about this company is when AZE schedule their service, they don’t give you an approximate time range like the cable or electric company, they give you a time, in our case it was 10:30a. Carlos, the technician, actually arrived early!!! He was very friendly and explained what he was going to do and how long it would take to perform the service. When Carlos finished, our service paperwork was emailed to us and he was off to his next job!!! We have used AZE to install and service our Generac and for multiple electrical jobs at the house(both scheduled and emergency jobs) and I don’t have any complaints about their work, their people, or their customer service. I love this company like they were my...

Recently completed a project with A-Z Electric which included but was not limited to: installation of recessed lighting in my living room, mounting a television with new outlets, installation of new ring motion lights around the perimeter of the house, upgrading to decor switches and outlets, and a light fixture installation. EXTREMELY satisfied with the quality of work and customer service. A-Z is a family owned business. Devin and his wife Kim ensure that you get a timely in person estimate and fair/competitive price. Devin called me to review the items in the estimate before sending it to me to be sure everything that I wanted done was captured and to answer any questions I had. I was put on their schedule and a few days before A-Z was scheduled to come I got a phone call to remind me of the appt. Steve and another A-Z electrician came to complete the work. They were on time, professional, and courteous. Steve kept communication with me through each phase of his work. Once he completed, the lighting layout for the recessed lighting he called me while i was at work to ensure I was ok with the positioning. Before mounting the TV he called me with photos to show me where he intended to position the wall mount. The work involved saw cutting drywall and some wire work but you wouldnt be able to tell because there wasnt a spec of dust of a wire shroud laying around when they completed their work. I have worked with A-Z in the past, so when I decided to embark on this work that required electrical, it wasnt even a question who I was going to call. Devin and his staff of electricians are knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating. A-Z Electric is a contractor you can trust. They have earned my repeat business and I already have other work in mind for them to come back to work on. If you have an electrical project or need I highly recommend...
