Best Electricians in California

We were in need of some rewiring in the attic ahead of a HVAC installation. Brian was quick to respond to a general quote request through Yelp and came out a couple of days later to give a more comprehensive quote. He thoroughly explained the work that needed to be done and gave us a cost-competitive quote (compared to 3-4 other companies). He also highlighted another issue with the electrical in the attic (a potential fire hazard) and included a fix to this problem in his quote. When he returned on the day of the HVAC installation we realized that there had been some miscommunication in the original quote as the job at hand was actually larger than anticipated. Brian was however very flexible and gave us a sharply discounted price on the spot for the additional work that was needed. We very generally very happy with Brian's work and the HVAC contractor also told us it had been a pleasure to work with Brian.

Seems I am the first one writing reviews for Mega Power.  They actually had more reviews for the LA branch.  I read those reviews and I can tell that Gary really cares about his reputation.

OK, my story.  I was thinking of installing solar in early 2022, after learning NEM 3.0 in California would be delayed indefinitely.  I started my journey with energysage.com, and got quotes from 6 local installers, including Mega Power Electric Inc.  I've also reached out to SunPower, and left my contact at Sunrun in Costco.  I finally decided to work with Mega Power for these reasons: 1. many positive reviews; 2. their price is very competitive; 3. I work directly with the owner German (Gary), who actually does the job.  No sales; no project managers.  While those sales people are nice and professional, the process is just as as efficient as talking directly with Gary.  Mega Power does everything very fast.  Gary came to our house and took some pictures; went back and shared his initial plan; we wanted two additional panels; Gary revised the plan (within 24 hours).  One or two weeks later, Gary and his people were on my roof.  Installation of 24 panels was done within one day.  City inspector initially had questions about the ground wire.  Gary and his team came back another time, and finished #4 ground wire upgrade within a couple of hours.  Passed city inspection.  Getting approvals from PG&E (final step) was a long story.  Gary and Mega Power did whatever they could to help and I appreciate that.  Overall experience with Mega Power was quite positive.  Definitely recommend Mega Power for their efficiency, work quality, and communication.  Additional data points I would like to share: while Gary and his team worked on installation, I was busy filing complaints with another company for their no show activity in the very first scheduled meeting. Oh, my wife and I already recommended Mega Power to another lady.  I probably should collect some referral fee from Gary.

Natalie seems like a nice person, friendly.  However, she seems to have some limitations.  One of my landscape lights was out, so I bought a coupon from Amazon Local for two hours of service from Valencia. Natalie came out, spent about half an hour looking at the fixture and presented me with an estimate for rewiring the fixture.  So I called my regular guy - Julian, the Electric Handyman - and he fixed it in fifteen minutes.  It was a loose wire and tripped ground switch.

After I posted the review above, Natalie did contact me to follow up and see if she could be helpful. The coupon was refunded, and Natalie let me know that she has bought some equipment that will help her trace wire activity better.  I was impressed by her willingness to hear feedback and make positive changes.  If I had another job, I might give her another chance.

NEMA14-50 installation looks perfect. Thanks Tyler!!!would recommend to anyone looking for an electrician

Our 26 year old furnace went out a couple of weeks ago, so we purchased a new system (heater and a/c unit) from Service Champions.  Abel came out to install it and did a fantastic job.  He was on time, polite, professional, and took the time to explain everything to us.  He and his crew worked hard the entire day to ensure we had the system up and running by the end of the day.  We are extremely pleased with our system and the service and expertise of Abel and Service Champions!

I heard a buzzing/crackling noise in my fuse box and orbis sent out an electrician within an hour. He was able to diagnose a wire that shorted, changed the affected breakers, cut out a junction box and change the burnt wires within an hour. Very knowledgable and great service. I'll be saving this number for sure.

we were very happy with Divine Electrics. They were professional yet friendly, keeping us informed about their progress along the way. Their aim was to do the job well, efficiently and with a generous spirit of friendliness and accommodation. we are very happy with their work.

Really appreciate Ryan's help on fixing the circuit breaker. He came by within 2 hours and identify the issue immediately. Very happy with Ryan's work and will use him again if needed!

John Hope Electric did a good job with a good price on my home outdoor lighting. So I called them  again to do install a new fixture and re-do some plugs and also look at some track lighting for my rental. They quoted the work on a T&M basis and I noted how long they worked. While they did good work, the billing department sent me a bill which reflected a much longer, obviously approximate time (2 guys for a half day) which after asking questions, they started handwaving this included travel time, and set-up time. After I called them out that no one charges for any of that, and I told them I was there and the times did not line up. They did settle with me on the right charges but I did not appreciate having to police their hours, have to call them on this, and argue with the company about the bill. I am not going back to John Hope, I am sorry they did really nice work, spoiled by the accounting dept bad experience

Wilson is very professional and efficient. He helped me solve some issues with my rigid conduit requested by PG&E for my electrical panel upgrade. I needed help fast because this problem blocked my house remodel inspection.  Wilson is very flexible to support my timing needed. And he did a great job fixing the issue.  Highly recommended!

I really put Sam and his helpers through their paces in the past month: a serious underground conduit repair, establishing a new appliance circuit, adding a 220v outlet to a workshop, and finally, a subtle and difficult maneuver involving connecting a built-in appliance to a box that was just a few inches in the wrong place, inside a tight-as-a-drum installation space. While working in the main panel he proclaimed the work space too dark (which it was), so he threw in a utility light while he was in there. I'm completely satisfied with the work, the prices, and Sam's optimistic, can-do spirit.

The most difficult job, finding and fixing an underground electrical line that traveled partly under the driveway, partly right through the roots of a tree (the line having arced, melted and burned while underground!), was fixed durably and beautifully. Another electrician had refused to even attempt it, saying we should bypass the underground line and just string an ugly overhead line to the workshop. Not Sam: he had it diagnosed, found, dug up and repaired before the day was out.

A neighbor referred Alpha General Electric to me, saying Sam maintained a number of her rental properties. Which said to me that he's seen it all, and become resourceful at finding problems and fixing them quickly and on a budget. I was not disappointed.

Just wanted to give a quick shout out to the Cross Electrical team. Don't do the reviews but I had to because they came in clutch for me.

I gave them a call in an emergency due to power being lost to the entire house. Edith answered the phone and was very helpful. She said Thomas the electrician could make it out to me with an ETA of 30 mins and he was at my house in 15. He was very informative. He diagnosed the issue, priced affordably and was able to get power back on in no time. I couldn't be more happy with the service I got from the cross electrical team. Glad I gave them a call and happy to see local business owners providing exceptional service. Definitely giving them a ring for future electrical issues.

Thanks again!

Very quick response on yelp. Showed up on time. Very knowledgeable. Had my problem fixed so quick and even looked at a few other issues I had. 5 star service, highly recommend using Gomez electric.

Dave came into our house and completely transformed our lighting.  He was extremely professional and was on on budget and on time.  Fantastic service with incredible results!  Thank you!

Bob helped us out with a user error circuit breaker problem.  No big deal you say?  Well it was Sunday and I was in San Jose and my wife was home in Burlingame, and this courteous knowledgeable gentleman helped us out by telephone saving an emergency weekend service call.  Good people like him help the world turn better each day.  He is in our speed dial now should we need him again.  He should be in yours as well.

Jose helped install an EV outlet in our garage. He was responsive and reliable and he did a great job with the install.  Highly recommend to anyone looking for electrical services.

Quick, professional service that was completed on-time and all permitted through the city of San Jose, Arash and team did a fantastic job.

The project for my home was to install a NEMA 14-50 eletrical outlet on the side of my home, in order to connect a ChargePoint electric car charger. The difficulty was also I was having solar installed by a different team, so I needed to a 150 AMP subpanel installed to allow the 50A ChargePoint to have adequate power. Arash and team did the following:

- Installed 150A subpanel, all wired to main panel to allow solar in future, on the side of our home
- Installed/mounted/wired ChargePoint Car Charger
- Installed/mounted/wired NEMA 14-50 outlet

All of this work Arash and team got permitted with the city of San Jose, so everything is on the level. There was one small miscommunication on my part (how I wanted the cable to exit from under my home) and Arash fixed it quickly and cleanly.  All of this larbor intensive work cost $3800, including materials and permitting. The entire time Arash and team was willing to  communicate over text, which was very helpful for someone working all the time! I was able to ask all the question I wanted to make myself comfortable with the process.

Highest recommendations from Arash and team.

We had some very wacky electrical issues that caused sparking after a vacuum shorted an outlet. I called around and others either didn't pick up or were saying they could come out in two weeks. When I called Jim, he said he could be here within the hour.
While Jim was here, he worked methodically to figure out which of the several outlets/lights that were daisy-chained along a hallway was the cause of the short. He ended up fixing it, which was amazing. We are so grateful that Jim dropped everything to come out and help us!
