Best Electricians in California

Ken is amazing.  Our power went out in our basement at 6am, we found Ken on Yelp and he was booked all day, he offered to come to our home in San Francisco at 9pm on a Friday night.  Ken showed up earlier than originally planned. He diagnosed and fixed our problem in about 15 minutes.  Very professional and super nice guy! And all at a reasonable rate!  Have added Ken to my contact list and will call for any electrical needs should we need in the future. Highly recommend.

Lex saved the day after we had some fried circuits and appliances after a power surge. He had a very quick response time and was very professional and capable. He fixed the problem. Highly recommend!!

I've known Robert since he did the electrical for our bathrooms remodel with a high end build and design firm, about 12 years ago. From that moment on, Robert has been our go-to electrician, and I've referred numerous friends to them as well.  Robert and Sebastian are simply the best!  They get everything done perfectly, quickly, and they are always in a great humor and fun to be around. As well, Robert has spotted and corrected several issues on our home while he was here doing something completely else. Mysterious flickering walkway lights that would go on and off...but only when it rained? Problem solved. Light switch that seemed overly warm to the touch? Circuit was overloaded---fixed it in 25 minutes. He and Sebastian are loved by designers, and can figure out solutions to tricky design issues.  Our just-finished kitchen remodel came out beautifully, and the whole thing was painless.  We wouldn't use anyone else.

Called them in the morning, they were able to send someone in by noon same day and they had the issue resolved very quickly (2 shorts). Price very reasonable and service and results were excellent.

Craig is a friendly electrician who reviewed my house electrical panels situation. Very trust worthy professional, from my point of view.

Williams Electric (WE) offered us Excellent Service!  We are a local non profit in Oakland and needed some electrical work done same day.  WE's came out a few hours after I called and completed the job within the hour.  

We needed power outlet's looked at, new outlet's installed and our breaker box reconfigured.  Geoff did it all.  He worked within our budget and got us set up better than before.  Geoff is extremely knowledgeable and shares out information so that the client is in the know.

I highly recommend Williams Electric.  Very Happy Customer and will definitely call them again.

In December of 2019, I realized the building I had just bought needed some electrical upgrades (old knob and tube, not enough circuits, etc.). I had four electricians come out and give me quotes. Kevin, the owner of Bay Electric was the most responsive, punctual, and was reasonably priced coming in about 50% less than the other quotes I received.

The work itself included upgrading knob and tube wiring, adding some outlets, adding recessed lighting throughout, and adding a circuit board in my unit. Everything looks and works fantastic. Kevin's crew is great and if I had any question or concerns Kevin was always a call or text message away. We passed our inspection with no issue.

I plan to use Bay Electric for all of my electrical needs.

Mark has done it again. He came by and installed my Tesla charger and fixed some wonky lightswitch wiring in a 4-way configuration from the previous owners. Super happy with his work.

For the EV charger, the run from my main panel was longer than expected, and Mark was transparent in giving me options and fair pricing. Once he got down to business, everything was installed with care and consideration. Really happy with the nice and clean install.

He also fixed a light wiring situation in my upstairs hallway, installing and pairing my new Lutron Caseta wireless switches (highly recommended). He even fixed a nearby faulty switch for me free of charge.

Fair prices and pleasure to work with. Thank you Kody and Adam!

In my 40 years of hiring plumbers this was the most outrageous estimate I have ever gotten. My girlfriend had a leak under mobile home. I went under and took a look and saw that a 2 inch PVC drain pipe had become loose and was leaking under the house. She called Bellows and they sent out Andrew who quoted a price of $850 for the repair. She had to pay Andrew $100 upfront for the estimate by the way. After she said she was going to talk to her boyfriend he sent a hand written quote on a plain piece of paper lowering the quote to $650.
I had taken photos of the leak and showed it to my professional plumber friend. He said the repair should take under an hour and cost about $15 in materials plus labor. He had other words to describe the estimate but I won't use them here.
 I then called Andrew back and he agreed that he was basically just going to put a piece of tubing in to repair the break.
I then called Bellows to see how they could justify $650 and Mike the manager assured me that it could possibly take three hours and that they charge $221 an hour. He felt charging $650 to make two cuts in a PVC pipe and replace it was justified.
Please be aware that the $221 an hour figure was from Mike's mouth and that if you want to deal with Bellows as plumbers be aware of this.
In response to Chelsea's review below I did not try to extort money from her. On the contrary she offered to pay me the $100 fee back if I would take down the review.I never said I would see her in court. I was referring to the company that her company referred me to that ended up charging $900 for one hour worth of work(bellows would not open up the insulation because it was waterlogged. They recommended this other company to my girlfriend before they would do any work). My girlfriend is out $1000 for something that should have taken one hour to do. If these two companies had had their way she would've paid almost $2900 for the repair. Outrageous!

I e-mailed Sam at Hi-Tech AV to redo some wiring and correct some blatant mistakes committed by an installer before. Sam showed up the same day evening and gave me a quote in a couple of days. All the other people who gave me a quote either were too high or not a professional and I choose to work with Sam.

On the day of the job Sam showed up on time and did a very professional work. He ran into so many surprises but he struck with it and finished a high quality work.

Sam at Hi-Tech AV is affordable and a real professional, who knows his stuff.
