Ruben Aragon Electrical Services in Greeley, CO went from less than 60 to 95 Google reviews with a 5.0 rating.

Why Good Electricians Still Have Few Reviews

You fixed the outage, upgraded the panel, and left the job clean. The customer was thrilled. Then nobody asked for a review, and the moment passed.

Most electricians are up a ladder or in an attic when the job wraps. Asking for a review is the last thing on your mind. Meanwhile, the one unhappy customer always finds the review button.

The fix isn't working harder. It's asking every customer, every time, without you having to remember.

The Best Times for an Electrician to Ask for a Review

Ask when the customer can see or feel the result. These jobs create the most grateful customers:

  • Power restored after an emergency call. Relief is at its peak. Ask before you pull out of the driveway.

  • Panel upgrade passes inspection. Big job, big peace of mind.

  • EV charger installed and charging. They're excited to show it off.

  • Lighting, fans, or outlets done. Quick wins they notice every day.

  • Generator or surge protection installed. Safety jobs build trust fast.

It's fine to ask customers to mention the work you did and their town, like "EV charger in Windsor." Those details help other homeowners searching for the same job find you.

How Electricians Get More Google Reviews Automatically

  1. Mark the customer paid in the app, even for cash jobs, and a review text goes out right away.

  2. Anyone who rates you 1 to 3 triggers an instant text to you with what they wrote, so you can make it right before they get to Google.

A Review System Built Around How Electricians Work

This isn’t just a review link. It covers every step, from the card you hand over to the reply on Google.

  • You hear about unhappy customers first. A 1–3 private rating alerts you while they’re still typing, before they ever reach Google.

  • Every review gets answered. Good or bad, a professional reply in your voice goes up about 45 minutes after it’s posted.

  • Free business cards that work twice. One QR code books video estimates. The other collects reviews.

  • Works on cash jobs. Mark the customer paid in the app and the text goes out.

  • Nothing new to learn. Keep booking jobs in your own software.

Most electricians we talk to have never seen a system like this.

Free Business Cards With Two QR Codes

One code books video estimates, the other collects reviews. Ruben hands them out on every job (see his results below).

4 Review Mistakes Electricians Make

Asking only after big jobs

A quick outlet repair customer can leave a 5-star review too. Ask every customer.

Leaving it to your techs to remember

Busy techs forget. Automation sends the request the moment the customer is marked paid.

Offering a discount for reviews

Google doesn't allow incentives. Reviews can be removed. Just ask and make it easy.

Ignoring the bad ones

Homeowners read your replies. A calm, quick response to a 2-star review can win you the next job.

Review Request Text for Electricians

"Hi [First Name], thanks for having [Company] out for your [panel upgrade]. How did we do? Tap to rate us: [link]"

Short, personal, and sent the same day. That's what gets replies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Electrician Review Questions

How fast will I get more reviews?

It depends on how many jobs you do. Ruben gained about 30 reviews in his first three months once every customer was being asked.

What do my techs need to do?

Just leave a business card with the QR codes (see the Video Estimate QR code & the Review QR Code) at every job. When the owner marks the customer paid in the app, even for cash jobs, the review text goes out right away. Every customer gets the card and the text.

What if a customer was upset about the price?

If they rate you 1–3 on the private rating, you're alerted while they're still filling out the feedback form, before they ever get to Google. That gives you a chance to call and make it right. They still get your Google link, since Google requires asking everyone.

Does it connect to Jobber or Housecall Pro?

No, and it doesn't need to. You keep booking jobs in your own software. Our system runs on its own phone number, so video estimates and review requests go out on their own.

Can I ask commercial customers and contractors?

Yes. Property managers and builders leave reviews too, and they carry weight with other businesses.

How much does it cost?

Our RepuBoost Reviews plan is $197 a month on a 12-month agreement, with no setup fee. It covers everything on this page: QR codes on free business cards, automatic review texts, instant alerts when a customer is unhappy, and a reply to every Google review. It doesn’t include a website. We work alongside the one you have, and nothing on it changes. If you later want a new website, a 24/7 receptionist, or lead follow-up, see our full plans.

Is it OK to ask for a review at all?

Yes. Google allows asking every customer. It doesn't allow paying for reviews or asking only happy customers.

Do you reply to my Google reviews?

Yes. Every review, good or bad, gets a professional reply in your voice about 45 minutes after it's posted. If anyone posts a 1–3 star review, you're alerted instantly so you can call them.

What if a customer can't scan a QR code?

They still get the review text when you mark them paid. The card and the text back each other up, so nobody gets missed.
