Peralta Electric

My home was built in 1932 and I was required to remove the old knob and tube wiring to add insulation. I reached out to several companies in the area but the expertise and quality of service of Juan and his team was solid. Here is why:

PRECISION. Other contractors came to my home and gave me unreasonable quotes just based on a rough count of switches and outlets. On the other hand, Juan immediately opened the breaker box, identified how many circuits were using the old system -- and by turning them off -- he was able to quickly identify the exact number of outlets and switches needed to be replaced.

COMMUNICATION. From the beginning, Juan was very responsive as we scheduled the project. At all points in time he answered all my technical -- and project related questions -- in a friendly an professional way. Before the project started he let me know of all the potential risks ahead of time, to avoid surprises. During the project he kept me in the loop as the work progressed.

PROFESSIONALISM. Juan and his team were on time for every appointment. During the project, after completing a section of it, they made sure to clean the entire work area. What really impressed me was Juan's ability to trouble shoot. There were a couple of situations where he could have taken a shortcut to just get the job done. Instead he took the time to root cause the problem and come up with very elegant solutions.

In conclusion, working with Juan was an absolute pleasure. Thanks to his great work I was able to put insulation in my house before the summer started. I will definitely contact, and recommend, Juan's company in the future.

Juan was awesome!  My lights were flickering Friday night and he fixed the issue and made improvements to my panel the next morning!

Arrived 30 mins early.  Listened and looked at the issues.  Explained everything to me so I can understand.

Everything was good for the fix

However I asked him for a quote on switching out the panel and was told he would send it when he gets home. Then I asked him again and was told tomorrow. Then he just disappeared. Busy I guess.

Amazing! I'm in a townhouse and my upstairs/downstairs light switches were being difficult. I called Juan Peralta, and he was able to come out the next afternoon and fix whatever was wrong. Imagine: I can turn my lights on and off whenever I want. (Sounds silly, but it was a pain in the neck.) Juan was prompt, quick, knew exactly what needed to be done, and brought the replacement parts with him. I will definitely call him again for any electrical problems.

Juan was prompt to complete the job (bringing main panel up to code), and provided and invoice for the work.

Juan was awesome. Quick reply, professional and cheerful while working. He solved my issue with a circuit breaker and rewired an outlet (and at a considerably lower price than other electricians had quoted). Great watching a pro at work.

We had an issue with our electric panel which caused half of our house electric to go out.  This happened in the evening and we called peralta electric to come out the next day, which was a weekend. They tried to troubleshoot with my husband over the phone.  When he figured out what might be the issue, he found the part and came out immediately and was such a lifesaver.  He came in and fixed the problem right away.  Very reasonable costs.  Thank you! Will think of you next time we need an electrician!

Promptly responded on yelp and came over on weekend to look at the electrical problem at my home. Gave good diagnosis of the issue. Will recommend to others.

Juan took care of fluorescent to LED conversion for a few light fixtures in my garage. The work was done promptly, and for a very reasonable price.

tried to hire him 2 times. First time, he showed up, took a look and said he will come back with a quote. He never followed up.
Second time, he gave me an appointment for 4pm next day. I shortened my trip so that I could be home for the appointment. Then when I called him at 4:15pm, he said something came up and he wont show up. He said he texted me in the morning, but I never received anything and I think he just lied. Then he said he will call be back but he never did.

Juan happened to be available on short notice (next day) and was able to diagnose and fix the problem with one of our circuit breakers. Turns out it wasn't a major problem, and the other circuits were fine.

He made the adjustments, fixed it, replaced the faulty outlet that causes the problem, checked all the other outlets/switches, and tightened all the connections in our box before finishing up.

I also appreciated that he didn't try to up-sell me on new equipment and services that I didn't need or ask for. Sure it doesn't hurt to upgrade, but he knew that's not what I asked for or needed. He gave me some tips and let me know to call him for any future needs. Solid work all-around.

Very fast response. COVID-19 safe. Professional job. Very knowledgeable, experienced and friendly.

Juan and his team are beyond good. I had a lot of electrical panel and circuit work to do. Had several companies come out who wanted to charge huge rates and create a complicated process.
Juan is very knowledgeable, thorough, honest and took care of the job for a fair price without over engineering things as can be possible to do with electrical work.  He's done work for my family now as well.  I'm very picky about who works on my home (or who I refer!) and I trust Juan implicitly

Had recessed lighting and electric a couple quad electrical outlets done. I love the job, so clean and professional. My living room doesn't get much natural light and now it looks great. Also now I am able to hide all the cables behind my TV, makes it look so clean. Juan the owner and his worker Shawn showed up on time, got the job done fast but most important a quality job, at a very decent price. The only problem now, for me, is I keep thinking of how many more jobs I can have them do. Highly recommended

I sent a quote request and Juan responded very quickly. Was able to come out and give us a quote in person within a couple days. A few days later he was able to start and did an amazing job. He added an external outlet to our front yard for us to use install sprinklers and walkways lights as well as 2 new lights flanking the garage. He even went to extra step and sealed around the new lights. Super happy with his work and would use him for any future needs!

I WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND PERALTA ELECTRIC.

I have worked with Juan Peralta and his crew on three projects this summer at my home in Saratoga, the largest of which was the installation of a new circuit breaker panel and whole house generator at my home in Saratoga.  I found Juan to be responsive, knowledgeable, thorough, patient, respectful and very customer oriented.  He showed up when he said he would, didn't leave until he accomplished what he set out to do and always left my property the way he found it when he came.  His workers are equally diligent and respectful.

A couple of month in this late review, had to give them the recognition they deserve; normally I don't write reviews. They resolved my issue quickly given their experience and was patient in explaining. Trust worthy person to do business with.

Juan is great. He answered our call right away and came in the next day. He helped us get the 240v outlet for the new electric range. He is also so kind to help us with the range installation as well. We highly recommend him!

Juan was professional, thorough and beyond reasonable in terms of rates. He's my electrician going forward! Can't recommend him enough.

I contracted Peralta Electric to upgrade my electrical panel from 100 Amps to 200 Amps, to run power to a workshop that I'm building in the backyard, and install a generator hook-up and sub-panel by the main electrical panel.  He got all of that accomplished on time and on budget.  He also took care of all the permit work and the PG&E scheduling.  When I asked him to do a few other small tasks, like installing a ground rod and an additional outdoor outlet, he said, No problem!  If I have any other electrical work that needs to be done in the future, he will be my first call.

Juan, the owner, was very professional and responsive. I needed an old outlet changed and he was at my house before I got home and was waiting patiently to service my home.
He worked quickly and efficiently and got the job done! It was so easy!
Thank you very much, Juan! I'd definitely use your services again if I need an electrician! I appreciate it!
I highly recommend this company!

Juan,
Thank you for coming right over and checking out our electrical panel. You determined that the loss of power to some rooms was a result of some loose wires in the panel. Your thorough check rather quickly solved our problem.

Peralta Electric provided excellent service and completed my my job quickly and timely. My bathroom light was falling out of the wall and the j-box needed to be replaced. They were able to take care of this quick and easy. Thanks.!

These guys are really great - professional, safe, well-priced and helpful. We had a long list of electrical repairs and some new installations - they did a really good job on everything. Highly recommended.

Juan arrived next day I asked him for help. He came on Sunday morning, that was extremely convenient for me. Juan found and fixed one issue in about hour and helped to figure out what is wrong with my other outlet.
