SME Inc.of Seattle Reviews

Outstanding! Great communicator and fast - Great value and he he found the problem quickly and took care of it. I would definitely work with him again!

First his company changed my appointment three times. The day they were suppose to come, he never showed up! I called SME and they said he was a bit behind on his first job. Ok. I understood this happens. Then they called an hour later to say the electrician had a doctors apt. for noon and couldn't make it till 3:30. I waited till 4. Then they called again to say that he couldn't make it at all that day!
I wasted my whole day off waiting for him!!
Would not recommend this company if you want someone dependable.

SME was very professional. They ensured that my work was performed efficiently and correctly. The job was a physically difficult and demanding one which they performed with good cheer and excellent communication.

I expect to use their services again and would recommend them for commercial or residential work.

Worst Electrical contractor in Seattle. They refuse to pay me for my contracted wage. They laid me off on a 33 story building due to lack of work.

Avoid then at all costs.

These guys are fast, smart and good. Called today because new dishwasher installer required plug-in outlet instead of existing hard-wired one. Was able to get them here within couple of hours, and they completed the job quickly and for a fair price. Highly recommend!

I have had them do major home rewired and they have done a great job. Especially for me because I'm picky about how my cable routing is done.

I had some electrical issues in my commercial apartment building. Called sme out on an emergency service call as our house electrician was not available. Sme insisted on pulling a permit to terminate building power (over $2000) and said they would have it off over an hour, 2 people would be dispatched to fix the problem and perform needed maintenance. The power was off about 20 minutes and the 1 tech they sent only changed some bad fuses. This did not fix the problem. He then said that it was the breakers and the building power would need to be shut off and another permit pulled. The tech also took on an incredibly disrespectful attitude. I told him no, and he said, he would have to fix it one way or another. Called the company, told them what happened and that I would be expecting a call back from a superior the next day. I had my house technician out and he discovered that the electrician from sme wasn't even working on the correct breaker panel, the breakers he said were bad were working properly, and the problem was cause by a LOOSE WIRE NUT in a conduit box 20 feet from the area the electrician was working and had walked by no les than 20 times. Months later the only follow up communication i receive is from their billing department wondering where their payment is. Here's my response.

They installed a Tesla Charger for us. Within a year of installation, the charger failed and we called in another electrician who re-installed it in such a way that the wires would not get broken. Overall, their work was sloppy and not on schedule. Every time they worked at our place, they left trash behind. Our other electrician takes the trash out with him. I'm now concerned that none of their work was quality work. Will have our new electrician look it over after what he found with the Tesla Charger.

Over the last few months I've had 3 electricians from different companies come and [failed to] help with a weird, intermittent problem. On a weekend, when we couldn't get any body to answer their phones, we got a hold of SME. We were dispatched a knowledgeable tech that show up that night. And even though it was raining, fixed the problem (which happened to be in the outside meter box / breaker). Where 3 others have failed, this tech found the problem and fixed it. I will be calling SME from now on. They're reliable, available, knowledgeable, and fast. Exactly what I wanted/needed.
