3e Electrical Services

This was by far the best work I could have ever imagined! I asked around for quotes from many companies and not only were the prices far more reasonable but they passed every test I could give them as far as specs on wiring (after consulting an electrical engineer I had all the right questions to ask, most companies could not answer with the correct safety specs!)

Not only was the work done safely, thoughtfully and reasonably but it was more beautiful than anything I could have imagined. I had a blank slate and need to electrify a tiny house. They came up with a beautiful intricate wiring system that included dimmers and 3 way switches. The picture I attached sadly doesn't capture the beauty of the work that they did. There were multiple lights on different dimmers, a 3 way switch that could be controlled by the upstairs or downstairs switch, a dimmable retractable fan and multiple exterior lights. I couldn't be happier with the quality of work that they did. Thank you!

Highly recommend supporting this small family business. Eduardo was the most responsive, had the best rates, and did a great job with replacing my light fixture in a timely manner. He was accommodating to my schedule changes and also made customized adjustments to my light fixture so that it could be placed where I wanted without relocating the hole in the ceiling. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely work with him again.

Our light switch in the bathroom broke yesterday and thank goodness Eden came by to replace it today. Very professional and was quoted a very reasonable price. Will definitely reach out to them again for future electrical services.

FLAKE
    After making plans 5 days before our scheduled project, Eden flaked on me.  I set aside my Saturday and was ready and waiting. 15 minutes after our scheduled appointment I text him to ask if he is still coming.  He says, sorry but I have another job I'm backed up on.  I wanted to let u know earlier but I couldn't find your contact info.  We had been communicating extensively thru Yelp and personal texting. NOT hard to find me.  
 I just don't buy it.  He needs to get more organized and learn how to run a business and treat customers.  He gets 2 stars because he said sorry.   He may be decent at his job(I don't know), but be prepared be flaked on.

Eden and Eduardo were fabulous. They installed a Telsa supercharger for me and the installation was super complicated because my home is built into a hillside and my main electrical on the side of my home a long distance from my garage where I wanted the charger installed. The supercharger could also not be run from a sub panel inside my home because electrical would have to have been run through concrete as my house is comprised of a lot of concrete and  framed with steel on. a hillside. I had sought 6 different quotes and they were definitely the most reasonable. But I also want to say that I have experience with contractors as I built my own custom home and have been in the business of representing contractors (as an attorney) for more than 20 years. My brother is also a general contractor. So I know contractors as I have been around them my whole life, in both my professional life and my family life.  I will also say that I am a single mom with three  young kids and live in a big home in an expensive neighborhood. I am used to getting outrageous quotes for work to be done because people see the house and see single woman and make assumptions that I am wealthy and will pay more and am a woman so I don't know any  better and will pay more.  But because I represent contractors and my brother is a general contractor I either know what is reasonable or have a good way to check. I was impressed from the very beginning with this father and son team. Their quote was excellent and given the same day Eden was out. In fact  as far as technology is concerned they are super advanced. Few of my contractor clients are as advanced in the estimate process (which was sent and approved electronically). Not sure what happened with a couple of the other reviews because my experience could not have been more different. In fact  when it started raining I got a call right away asking if we could move the install to the next day. I will also say when I went to pay, I tried to confirm the amount and gave Eden a number that was way higher than his quote, Eden corrected me right away and said no, that is too much. In all honesty he could have said,  yes thats right and I would not have known the difference.  All I can say is that when it comes to contractors, there are a lot of questionable people out there but this is a company that is honest to fault. Truthfully he underestimated the job and I knew that based on what I was told by my brother and other contractors. So I paid them more that they  quoted even though they did not ask because I believe in giving a fair wage for a job well done.  They also did a great job of cleaning up after the job and swept up and returned my stuff to the condition that  existed before they started.  Seriously recommend this team. Spend some time chatting with them both and you will see that these are good, hardworking people, honest and responsible. You cannot go wrong with this father son team and frankly I like the idea of supporting a small family owned business. Finally I will say that my dogs loved Eden and Eduardo and the last time I had a I bad experience with a  contractor I felt like I should have known better because my  dogs growled at him and got their hackles up.  In retrospect it was clearly a warning sign.  Maybe its nonsense but I think dogs can tell and my dogs just wanted to love on Eden and his dad. I will also note that I checked their license with the CSLB and verified they are licensed, bonded and insured with no prior complaints with the contractors state licensing board.

He was available and we had a problem. Our electrical outlets and lights in our master bedroom were flickering on and off. Since we live in an older condo, was worried we might have a short, bad wiring, or a breaker on the fritz. He showed up right on time.  He was a very nice person. But 4 hours later, our ceiling fan and lights were no longer working and a switched outlet was now working from a different switch than before. He was apologetic but things had gotten worse not better. He didn't charge me and promised to come back to fix the issues but we never heard back. 3e may be great for ceiling fans and new outlets but a hard fail on troubleshooting. At least for our condo!

Eden moved my ceiling fan from my office to the living room, which was no small task -- he had to go into the attic, which had tons of old, loose insulation, to get the wiring correct and do a new installation in the LV.  He really went above and beyond.  When it was getting late and I told him not to worry about sweeping up the mess, he insisted he clean up.  Fantastic work ethic here!  Just a pleasure.  Very reasonable rates.  Only went up a little from the estimate, which I was not surprised because my house is 100 years old and the wiring isn't exactly up to date.  And still lower than other estimates I had gotten.  :)  Thanks, Eden!

Problem:  My solar company wanted me to hire an electrician to add a conduit from the panel to the attic to where they could make their connections.  (I guess my solar doesn't do wallboard work.)  

I searched around Yelp for local businesses and 3e Electrical was one that responded quickly.  I sent them photos of my panel that I took prior to cover at my condo so the route to the attic was straight forward but required some cutting and patching.  I received a very good quote after contacting 3 electricians and chose them to do the work as they could do it right away.  They discovered right away that my panel was not grounded and the work was not finished by the builder meaning none of my outlets were grounded.  Besides adding the two additional conduits that I wanted, (one for the solar work and one for future as the wall was opened up), they made right the house ground and also patched back the wallboard and also put some mud in the joints.  That meant that all I needed to do was buy a can of spray texture and then paint it.  They did the work and cleaned up and were out in a little over a couple of hours.  

The quick response and quote, knowledge, great work, and being a local small business resulted in me to leaving this positive review.  Hire these guys!

Fantastic and affordable service, Eduardo and his son were both quick and precise. They arrived on time and worked fast. Had everything taken care of in a timely manner, would definitely recommend.

Sent an email message on a Sunday morning and received a reply within 10 minute. Eduardo was able to give me a quote and was able to come out to hang a chandelier the same day.  Arrived on time and was extremely friendly and cleaned-up. Highly recommend!!

Eduardo and son (both are licensed electricians) arrived on time, evaluated our breaker panel and wiring, checked voltages and installed the higher amperage breaker needed to charge my new Chevy Bolt. They are a pleasure to work with. Patient with my questions, knowledgeable and professional. Project was completed in one visit. I highly recommend them.

I used them to install my EV charging station. They were hands down excellent all around! Fast, reliable, affordable and professional. I will use them again.

Eduardo and his team did a great job installing our recessed lighting inside the house! We are very happy with their service and amazed by their work ethic. They were super friendly and easy to work with. Our house is beautiful and filled with light now. Would definitely recommend and will use again for our future electrical needs.

Great work and fair price. Eduardo made sure everything was up and working. He was very friendly and thorough with the job. The project was to install extra outlets and recessed lighting in my garage. After the work he left the area spotless. Will do business again!
