Used Benchmark to get a new outlet installed outside. They were able to get me on the schedule quickly, which has been hard to find lately. Communication via email was very responsive and easy. They showed up right on time for our appointment and accomplished the work very quickly. Install went in great and it works perfectly. When accomplishing the work, for safety reasons they had to turn off my heat pump, and forgot to turn it back on before leaving. They were able to make everything right very quickly and easily and I appreciated they're communication. Would not hesitate to use them again for work.

Summary: High quality workmanship, courteous, clean, and flexible. Story: I decided that I wanted to relocate my laundry room and water heater from inside the house to outside in the garage. Doing this would require relocating (2) 240v circuits and (1) 120v circuit, so I started looking for an electrician to come over and quote the project. I called a couple of the larger companies in the Seattle metro area that advertise on TV but they all wanted me to pay a fee just for them to come out and quote. I start searching for local companies and found Benchmark Home Services Inc. I connected with Ed and explained what I was looking to have done, and he said he’d be able to stop by same day to walk the potential job site and talk about possibilities. Ed arrived at our agreed meeting time, evaluated what I was looking to have done (including a new idea to add an outlet to the bathroom) and said he’d send over a formal quote. I received the detailed quote shortly thereafter and agreed to have his company do the work. They worked with me on scheduling to try and coordinate the timing with the plumber so that we wouldn’t be without hot water. On the planned day of the installation, my father had a medical event that required my assistance. Ed and his team were very understanding and accommodated this unforeseen event by saying they could try the following day. The crew showed up the next day, talked me through what they were going to do, asked important questions (e.g. kids and/or animals) and got to work. When coming inside, they took off their shoes before laying down the temporary tarps for walkways where they’d work. The workmanship was high quality, and the job site cleanup performed before leaving was equally as impressive. Besides detailed vacuuming, they wiped down all surfaces they touched including the painted exterior door to the panel - no dark spots or fingerprints. I will recommend BHS to any family or friends if they need to get electrical work done, and will undoubtedly call them for all of my future needs.

The electrician was very professional in making sure he was diagnosing the problem correctly and when the replacement part was not available, he went ahead and fixed it for me, and even dropped it off the next day! I really appreciated his helpfulness and professionalism. He really took the extra step to help me fix the problem!

Hands down one of the most professional group of people that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Benchmark has taken care of our business electrical needs and our home remodel projects for years and have not let us down. Benchmark maintains strict quality control, making sure things are executed to a high standard and always on schedule. Ed is very knowledgeable, communicative, trustworthy, and always a pleasure to work with. As a general contractor, I always recommend Benchmark to my clients. I know that my clients will be in good hands and the electrical process will be as smooth as possible! I would highly recommend them.

I needed phenolic tags for an e-house urgently and Ed was able to facilitate my last minute request promptly. They came out great and was able to meet the timeline. Thanks Ed!

Meridian 714

I had an emergency with my main panel in my home and Mr. Hlavacek responded almost immediately to my email. This was during the week of the heat wave and they were, understandably, busy. Mr. Hlavacek and Kirill fit me into their very busy schedule and had me fixed up in a jiffy! I plan to hire them in the future for more projects!! 10 out of 10

Igor Ryzhikov

Ed and his team did a great job! He was super patient walking through the entire process and took a huge load off our plate by working directly with our contractor. The final product came out great and his team was always on time and respectful of our space. I wouldn't hesitate to go with Benchmark the next time i need anything electrical done and will be recommending his team to my friends.

The Rich History of West Seattle and The Neighborhoods We Serve

Discover the fascinating history of these West Seattle neighborhoods, and learn how our electricians have been providing reliable and affordable electrical services to this diverse community:

Alki

Alki is often called the “birthplace of Seattle,” as it is where the first group of European settlers, led by Arthur Denny, landed in 1851. Initially called “New York Alki” with hopes of building a large city akin to the Big Apple, the area’s growth was slower than anticipated. Alki later became known for its recreational opportunities, with the development of Luna Park—an amusement park—in 1907, though it closed after just six years. Today, Alki is a vibrant and thriving neighborhood known for its sandy beach, stunning views of Puget Sound, and lively waterfront scene. For more information on Alki’s history, visit the Southwest Seattle Historical Society’s website here.

Arbor Heights

The history of Arbor Heights begins in the 1920s when its development started as a residential neighborhood. This quiet, mostly residential area was initially part of unincorporated King County until it was annexed by the City of Seattle in 1954. Arbor Heights is known for its wooded and hilly terrain, offering beautiful views of the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains. The neighborhood’s Arbor Heights Elementary School, built in the 1940s, is an enduring community landmark. Learn more about Arbor Heights through the West Seattle Blog’s coverage of the neighborhood here.

Fairmount Park

Established in the early 20th century, Fairmount Park was first known as “Fir Lodge,” named after the beautiful and historic Fir Lodge, which is now the site of the Kenney Retirement Community. The neighborhood’s growth surged in the 1940s and 1950s as new housing developments sprouted to accommodate the growing population. Today, Fairmount Park is a peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood with parks, schools, and a strong sense of community. Discover more about Fairmount Park through the neighborhood’s community association here.

Fauntleroy

Fauntleroy, established in the early 1900s, is named after the Fauntleroy family who were early settlers in the area. The neighborhood began to develop significantly in 1912, with the arrival of the Fauntleroy Park Addition—a housing development designed to provide a suburban retreat for city dwellers. The opening of the Fauntleroy ferry terminal in 1957 further connected the neighborhood to downtown Seattle and beyond. Fauntleroy Park and Fauntleroy Creek are notable natural features in the area, offering lush green spaces and opportunities for outdoor recreation.

Gatewood

Gatewood traces its roots back to the 1890s when homesteaders began to settle the area. The name “Gatewood” comes from the gated wooden fence that one of the original residents built around his property. The neighborhood saw rapid development in the 1920s, with the arrival of the West Seattle streetcar line and subsequent housing booms. Today, Gatewood is a desirable residential neighborhood with a mix of architectural styles, including Craftsman, Tudor, and mid-century modern homes.

Genesee

Genesee’s development began in the early 1900s when the Olmsted Brothers, famous landscape architects, were commissioned to create the blueprint for the neighborhood. The Olmsteds were responsible for designing the area’s streets, parks, and overall aesthetic, giving Genesee its picturesque charm. The neighborhood is named after Genesee Park, a central feature that offers residents access to recreation and green spaces. Over the years, Genesee has maintained its tight-knit community atmosphere, with neighbors working together to preserve the area’s history and unique character.

Highland Park

Highland Park was first developed in the early 1900s, and it quickly became known for its idyllic location atop a hill, providing panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. This mostly residential neighborhood experienced significant growth during the 1940s and 1950s, as war industry workers and their families flocked to the area. One of Highland Park’s most iconic landmarks is its water tower, constructed in 1931 and adorned with a mural painted by a local artist in 1979. The neighborhood remains a tight-knit community with an active neighborhood association, annual events, and a strong commitment to preserving its history and charm.

North Admiral

As one of the oldest neighborhoods in West Seattle, North Admiral has a rich history that dates back to the late 1800s. Originally known as “North Street,” the area was renamed “North Admiral” in 1907 when the Admiral Way cable car line was introduced, connecting the neighborhood to downtown Seattle. The arrival of the cable car spurred development, leading to the construction of beautiful homes, parks, and amenities. Today, North Admiral is a vibrant and bustling neighborhood, retaining much of its historic charm while offering modern amenities and a diverse array of businesses, restaurants, and shops.
