Phillips is the guy. He replaced a basement light for us quickly and at a fair price. He arrived on time, covered his shoes with booties (SO important and impressive) and cleaned up before he left. Thank you!

I posted a job and reached out to several people and no one ever got back to me until Okot Electric sent me a message and said he was willing to travel out to help me! He was at least an hour away but he wanted to help me because he noticed no one was getting back to me. He showed up exactly on time and explained everything that needed done and turned out everything was an easy fix for me! He finished up everything i needed within an hour and his rates were way better than most electricians. He was very sweet and even explained his background on how he decided to become an electrician. I asked if he would be okay coming out again if i ever needed help and he said of course and gave me his card. He will always be my first call if i need anything electrical done! ☺️

Easy to work with, flexible in changing date/time of install. Project was small but he did a great job & I'll likely hire him to do future lighting installation.
Very prompt. Offered a first time discount. Did great work and caught a problem that we were aware of but weren’t going to address. After discussing pros/cons, we decided to take care of the problem during the same visit, especially given that he had the supplies on hand and was available to take care of it there and then. Very helpful and would definitely recommend.
Details: Yes, the location has an existing fan • Ceiling • Greater than 8 feet high

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
We offer competitive prices, the Best prices in the area
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When we are hired, we make sure we understand the job and also make sure to let customers know they can ask any questions at any time before the appointment. When we get to the job, we always put on shoe covers and cover the work area that needs to be covered with a drop cloth or plastic covers, then clean after work is done; we bring a broom, vacuum, and wet wipes.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
After high school, I attended Daniel Comboni International Electrical School as an apprentice from 2014 to 2016. From 2016 to 2019, I worked as an independent electrical contractor in Uganda before moving to Pittsburgh in 2019, where I continued my career in electrical work. I later founded Okot Electric LLC, which has since grown into a team of six full-time employees. With 207 five-star reviews on Google, we proudly serve an average of 52 families per week.
