I own a 3 family house in Brooklyn on Friday I lost partial power to the building itlsef, I call CONED and they insisted I call a licensed electrician and as I don’t know any I simply wen ton google and key in licensed electrician. I called a few of them on the first page and either they didn’t answer, treated me like I was the enemy or were out right nasty. The forth call I made was to DAVEN ELECTRIC in which I go Jen S the office manager and she treated me like a human being. I explained the situation and she put me on hold for a brief moment and Dave the owner picked up and explained to me what he felt it was and that he would dispatch this ticket to the field superintendent which is Alex S. Alex S called me in 5 minutes and he to felt what Dave had said was the issue was accurate. Alex S explained that daven electric is not emergency service company for new clients BUT when I mentioned that I have a tenant with children in the house and my mother lives here as well and is aged. Alex being a caring individual explained the fee structure and had a truck on-site in 2 hours, the staff member pinpointed the issue, temporarily e-wired the building and called con ed. Con ed showed up in 2 hours and permanently corrected the matter as it was an issue in the man hole on there end. The daven team saved the day and I haven’t seen that in long time, my hats off to DAVEN ELECTRIC

Very disappointed with the level of service and professionalism of Daven Electric. They were contracted to do the Electric and Fire Alarm work for my new small business in DUMBO, and failed to deliver every step of the way. They did not order critical equipment from their preferred Supplier in time to meet the project deadline, and then made no attempt to find alternate equipment anywhere else. The rest of the construction was complete, but I couldn’t open for an additional 2 months due to this incompetence. I still had to pay rent on the space and missed out on 2 months of revenue during the peak holiday season. Finally, desperate, I (with no experience in this field whatsoever) contacted various local suppliers and had the equipment made and on site in 1 week – what they could not do in 4 months! Further, Daven then had the audacity to refuse to complete the work and I had to scramble to find another electrician to finish THEIR job. Icing on the cake – they failed the inspection and delayed my business opening yet another 10 days. Just another example of a typical lazy contractor that takes no accountability for their actions (or inactions) and expects small business owners like myself to not only do their job, but also pay for their mistakes. AVOID this company like the plague if you want to work with a reliable and ethical contractor.

  • Randy Skillmen

I called DAVEN ELECTRIC for a quote on a small project on Monday and on Tuesday the superintendent Alex was at my location reviewing my thoughts and requirements with me in great detail, by Wednesday I had a formal quote laying out the entire scope of work as we had discussed on Tuesday. The price was higher then 2 quotes I received HOWEVER the professionalism was at a higher degree as well. I decided to check the reviews and ask for references which as far as the reviews are concerned they are a top notch company and when called the references ( provided by the office manager Jen ) I was given more then enough detail and comfort that DAVEN electric was worth more then the price quote. Let me be frank, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR and that goes for hiring an electrician as it does for buying a car. I could be happier and feel more at piece knowing I had a NYC Licensed electrical contractor with proper insurance and highly skilled men which conducted themselves like a military operation with gentleman like manners preform my project. In short when it comes to electrical work which is life safety I do not mess around with fly by night unlicensed, uninsured, unreliable companies and you should not either. CALL DAVEN electric and let them impress you as they impressed me.

  • Mike Sanders

I called daven electric for a large apartment ( 150 units ) building in queens which needs a new larger electrical service , all new 100amp risers , new panels and new electric range circuits ( we are getting rid of gas in the units ) and they were on-site in 2 days to review the project and I had a price in 3 days . A Few things I noticed right away the owner Dave and the superintendent Alex knew exactly what to do once I mentioned were losing gas service and needed electric ranges. They offered up 20 buildings of similar size that they had completed and /or are in middle of doing the exact same project in , the gave me the owners names and numbers to call . I called the contacts and reviews were great , I went to 2 buildings to look at the work and the work was on point and I spoke 3 tenants in the same buildings and they but nothing nice things to say about the daven team . Pricing was right in the middle of 2 other electrical contactors who had bad attitudes and poor reviews. You get what you pay for and I am going with DAVEN ELECTRIC on this project and anything electrical period

  • Sal Mannino

I have small retail shop in Tribeca and last week we had an issue with lights flickering. I called DAVEN electric and explained the matter to the office manager who took all my info and listening carefully to my issue, She in turn directed me to wait 30 minutes and a field supervisor would call me back. 10 Minutes later Alex form DAVEN called and 20 minutes later he was in my shop. He diagnosed the matter, quoted the cost of repairs and the very next day a truck showed up with 2 uniformed, badged members of DAVEN field staff, they were polite, clean, well mannered and understanding that my store is a retail establishment and should be treated like it’s the most important place in the world. They corrected mattered , I paid the bill on line and they were on there way, GREAT JOB by DAVEN!!!. No issue 3 weeks later and I also had a follow up from Jen the office manager ( the first person I spoke to ) and then Dave ( the owner ) took the call as well to ensure my overall experience was satisfactory. AGAIN great job, great experience, great product, this obviously a VERY well-run company.

Having known David Lavender for a number of years, I asked the Daven team to take over a project from a previous electrical firm. From their initial dealings with the DOB Electrical Division to arranging and attending inspections, then getting the necessary sign-offs, they were diligent and responsive throughout the process. Their analysis of the existing conditions as well as their knowledge of and adherence to the correct electrical codes made working with them stress-free. Administratively, the paperwork, insurance requirements and documentation was clear and whenever a conversation was needed, always available to clarify any details in question. Even during this Covid-19 period, the site specific work at the operating Tenant space was well coordinated, tidy and efficiently staged so as not to interrupt any daily business. Daven have proven themselves dependable, informative, knowledgeable and affordable at every level. I look forward to calling on them again in the future.

  • Ray De Guzman

I am Ray I own and run a building management company for over 20 years in the NYC market and have well over 100 buildings in my portfolio . I started using DAVEN electric 10 years ago as one of my clients ( who owns 20 buildings ) uses them exclusively. In the beginning I started giving them on a limited basis to see if they could handle the work and clients happy . I soon was pleasantly surprised as 8 years ago I tuner all electrical work from small service calls , to full blown total building power outages to total service upgrades in large mixed use buildings . DAVEN electrics team comprised of Dave the owner , Alex the super , Mike the PM and Jen office manager and the total labor force at DAVEN have become more then a vender they have become the ONLY electrical contractor I will use period !!

  • Steven Maltode

I am a commercial property manager with 40 building portfolio of mixed use buildings in Manhattan and Brooklyn and I came across DAVEN electric some 6 years ago when I asked colleagues whom they used for electric matters from small services calls to large total renovation work. They all said “ Call DAVE from DAVEN “ in which I did. I have over 40 vendors from every trade for the past 25 years working for us in one capacity or another and no company has come to close to the overall value DAVEN bring to the table. It’s a get what you pay for scenario in that DAVEN electric is not the low priced company on the block however they are the reliable, responsible, accountable and high quality company that all others wished they were and for that I will pay up and I recommend you do the same.

  • Frank Kendrin

I am taking time out from my busy schedule to recommend Dave and entire team at DAVEN electric . I am the owner of multiple LARGE apartment buildings in Manhattan and the Daven Electric team has serviced all the buildings for the last 10 years from total service upgrades , new risers ,apartment panels , electric range circuits to building lighting and emergencies Daven has served us well . Pricing is far and within market range , they are not cheap however for critical systems such as light , heat and power there is no room for era and frankly they have NEVER let us down yet . I recommend DAVEN Electric to my colleagues , Business associations and friends and I am pleased to recommend DAVEN electric to anyone whom requires hi grade electrical work in the NYC market.

  • Adam Dinnebeil

Daven Electric provided our 100 year old building with a new upgraded electric service and distribution system to all our apartments. From the beginning initial survey to the final approved inspection Daven conducted themselves in a highly focused and professional manner. Jen, Alex and Dave were all accessible and available which is why the project was a success. There were no surprises, everything Dave and Alex said became reality. The project was very reasonably priced and they handled the inevitable unexpected fairly and quickly. Highly recommend Daven Electric for any of your electrical needs!!

  • william m

My experience with David was amazing . I spoke to him about my building violations . We met at my property. During our time together David surprisingly shocked me with all his documented research stating I didn't need any work done . He stated it was a filing issue. His staff helped me thru the process removing these headaches , not to mention the HONESTY that Daven Electric has shown me ! Didn't charge me a dime ! WHERE DO YOU FIND PEOPLE LIKE THIS ! I go to church every Sunday and guess someone answered my call . Thank you JEN at DAVEN ELECTRIC !

  • Barbara Sloan

Our nyc co-op hired Daven Electric to do a building wide electrical upgrade and I'm so grateful that we were referred to him. From the first walk through David and his team took the time to explain the process and the schedule, and even hosted an in person Q&A for all of the building's shareholders. He secured materials in a timely manner despite a shortage at the time and even made referrals for other trades. He and his whole team went above and beyond for a project delivered on time and on budget, with no change orders. Definitely recommend.

  • Adrian Tone

It was a pleasure to work with Daven Electric. I had a small pre-war apartment in a Coop in Sunset Park. I needed completely new electric brought in from the basement, through the dumbwaiter. Daven replaced everything with new wiring. He had a fair, market rate price, performed the job well and on time. Not only that, but his crew was careful, polite, clean (no dust outside my door) and understanding of my difficult situation of renovating in a Coop in the midst of the Covid Pandemic. I could not have asked for a better experience.

  • Yoshiaki Yoshioka

This is the first time I use the company. I was looking for someone to install an auxiliary contact in the elevator room. Jen who answer the phone kindly had me speak to the president of the firm David, and he then connected me to the supervisor Alex, who came to our site to check the situation on the next day. Jack who came to install the device was ontime (6:00 AM !!) and finished quickly. Everybody I spoke and met were very kind, friendly and professional. I will use Deven in the future and recommend the firm to my friend.

  • Alexander Kuzio

We worked directly with Dave, President of Daven Electric, and he offered fast professional service at a reasonable price for a project other electricians didn't have a solution for. Dave helped us diagnose why a large piece of machinery wasn't powering up...unfortunately it involved upgrading our electrical panel but Dave made it as painless as possible, took care of all communications with CON ED and had our machine back up in running as quickly as possible. We definitely felt Dave and his team went above and beyond.

  • Sam Cooper

I met with Dave for a full lighting package install at a commercial retail space in Brooklyn. Dave was prompt and responsive, and I quickly received an affordable estimate for the work. The work performed was top notch, and although the crew cut no corners, they got the work done in half the time I expected. From start to finish- dealing with Dave, his professional crew, and Jen who handled my invoicing, I am blown away by the professionalism and friendly service I received. Will hire again without question.

  • Vincent George

A week ago I searched online for a "commercial electrician near me" to help with a shop I have in Brooklyn. Daven came up as a choice. I called and was impressed with their excellent customer service over the phone. The next day a team of electricians showed up, looked over my issues and told me what they thought I needed. They gave me a price I thought was fair and I told them to go ahead and fix the problems. These men are experts and performed quality work. I would recommend them to anyone.

  • Evan M. Gillman

Daven Electric recently completed a residential project in Manhattan for us that included new lighting, fixture installations and outlet & switch relocations. Dave, Jen, Alex, Mike and their respective team are the best in the business. Everything was completed timely, neatly and with an exceptional attention to detail all under a competitive bid. We would highly recommend Daven and hope to work with them again. Thanks to you all for the stellar work and wishing you continued success.

  • Adam C

Daven electric is an outstanding electrical contractor! What a breath of fresh air it was to have them diligently do exactly what they were supposed to do and when they were supposed to do it and in a thoughtful and professional manner. Wow! what a change from our previous electrical contractor. Daven Electric went the extra mile to do additional things I requested. If you are looking for a really great electrical contractor, look no further than Daven Electric.

  • Albert Francisco

Alex the superintendent , Mike the project manager and all the field staff are wonderful . Great company and my hats off to the owner Dave and to Jen the office manager .

  • Lucas Friedfeld

Easily the best commercial electrical contractor I have every worked with. I was shocked at how delightful they were over the phone. Excellent customer service is a lost art and this company does it right. Responsive, on time, professional, fair, and incredibly knowledgable. Quotes were given the day of site visit. Scheduled job within days and complete on time. Do yourself a favor and hire them and do not worry.

  • Gregory Smith

I am the district manager of La Colombe coffee roasters with 9 retail locations in the NYC area and for the past 5 years when there is an electrical issue we call Daven Electric and consider the issue remedied, it's that simple. When you have to perform in your roll for a major coffee brand you chose the vendors who make you shine and Daven Electric is just that type of vendor. I recommend Daven Electric.

  • Neil Broke

I just bought a house in Brooklyn and the first thing I noticed was that all the outlets were two-pronged and needed to be replaced. I found Daven Electric Corp. and they did a great job! The electrician was on time, professional, and very reasonably priced. He replaced all the outlets in my house in less than two hours. I would recommend them to anyone in need of an electrician in Brooklyn!

  • Lori Iaquinta

I recently worked with Daven Electric regarding an electrical issue raised during an insurance inspection on my property. Their technician Alex was extremely knowledgeable and informative. It was a breath of fresh air to interact with a company that works with honestly and integrity. Not my normal to take the time to write a review, but this service definitely deserved the effort!

  • Roger King

I have a small shop in Manhattan and I needed a commercial electrician to help me with some wiring, so I called Daven Electric Corp.

The electricians they sent were very professional and did an excellent job. :)

  • Jason Harrington

Remarkably excellent company, thus far on the quotation process and noticeably the on the dot timely arrival and other electricians do not explain the DOB rules and electrical standard clearly to laymen. It is refreshing to actually have a clear idea of what is going to be done.
