Best Electricians in California

I reached out to Ted while looking for a handyman to replace an old vanity, wall cabinet, and mirror in our bathroom. He was very responsive and generous with advice on where to get materials and what kind to get even before I had hired him.

Once on site, I found him to be super friendly, adaptive, and communicative. The project ended up increasing in scope (including tearing out and replacing some drywall) because of unforeseen circumstances. (It's an old house, so honestly I went in expecting a surprise or two.) Ted was great about laying out the options, being mindful of the unexpected increase in cost. Throughout the process I felt I was kept in the loop and consulted on all the decisions I wanted to be consulted on.

This was my first experience with a handyman and I'll definitely be calling Ted when I need one again.

Habib came to the rescue when I ran into trouble replacing a switched receptacle.
The original wiring was weird and I was stupid enough not to write down how the original wiring was since I thought I knew what I was doing... WRONG!  After I installed the outlet per some online instructions, the receptacle works, but the other room has no power!

I called Habib out of desperation, and he was able to come on the same day.   He fixed the problem in like 10 minutes!  Very impressive!

Andres from AVS Electric came right on time for our scheduled appointment.  He diagnosed and solved the issue immediately.  I look forward to requesting his services again when I have a more serious issue.

Worst store ever. I bought $450 worth of supplies for my contractor which turned out to be wrong - based on what they told us at the store. They changed a 15% restocking fee AND a $10 fee to ship back None of this is stated on the return slip which says they will either give store credit or refund with card present.

I recently moved to a new place and  here was no electrical outlet in the garage. We own an electric car and we wanted to get a charger as it is very annoying to go elsewhere for charging. I looked for electricians in the area, called Art Electrical Service to get a solution. A few days later we had our charger installed and life got a lot easier!
I highly recommend Art electrical Service - very professional and affordable!

Initial thoughts: Got a quote from Pedro a few months ago and we were finally able to get started on the project due to delays on my part not his. He was very patient and explained things thoroughly. Although the quote was priced higher later due to inflation it was not terrible like others. He's very reasonably priced. When he comes over, he typically wears a mask and has shoe covers on him. He's been nice to our barking dog. I love how he gives us options and he's by the books to ensure you pass inspection. So far we're part way through with the electrical project and he has been very transparent. You can see the passion in his work. He's also been very receptive of feedback. I highly recommend this business. I can't wait to paint our house after this is complete. Will update with pics after it's done.

An electrician with great expertise, efficient with his time with a fair hourly rate....and good humored!  We had major ceiling electrical re-wiring for new lighting and fans. Derek has a great work ethic, flexible, and honest.

I rarely spend the quality time to add a review on Yelp, unless I receive EXCEPTIONAL service that I feel that will benefit others seeking great services and/or goods experience.

Last week, I had the sincere privilege of receiving OUTSTANDING service and GREAT quality lighting products from 110/220v Electric Company.  The scope of my project was to replace 18 canned lights with high efficient LED lights and some dimmer switches.  

I have a very busy schedule at work and when I take time off from work (to work from home), I expect the service provider to be on time.  It was wonderful that both times, during the day of the estimate and the following day for service, owner Bart Speccia was ON TIME!  

During the estimate, Bart spent the quality time to carefully listen to my needs and promptly provided me with lighting options (brightness, warmth of the lights...not bright harsh lights, energy efficiency, etc) and estimates.

On the day of the service, owner Bart Speccia and his worker Christian both came ON TIME!  Bart and Christian was very cordial and they CLEANED UP after their work.  They changed the lights and dimmer switches in only a couple of hours (as Bart promised!).

I am highly satisfied with the quality products and the EXCEPTIONAL service I received from 110/220v Electric Company and would not hesitate to recommend Bart and his company to my family and friends.

Professional electricians with great customer service, and experience.

Very professional, responsive, and efficient.  They do excellent work.  They changed my whole electrical system in about a week.  Also, changed all of our plug-ins around the house.   We could not ask for anything more.  Highly recommended.

Awesome service!! Quick, efficient and honest!!! These guys know their craft! N
Would use again in a heartbeat.

Luis and his crew overhauled the lighting in our Oakland home. They were reliable, reasonably priced and genuinely a pleasure to work with. The job took 4 and a half days and there were several occasions where Luis came up with creative and sensible processes and products to keep the project within budget. Great value. Our house went from looking outdated to modern. We couldn't be happier and we would recommend Luis to friends and family.

Gavin was very easy to communicate with, straightforward, and finished the job no problem. Highly recommend.
Our place had a socket that started smoking and burned out, along with the power going out of the room. We contacted Gavin after looking up Yelp, sent him a picture, and he was able to find time in his schedule on short notice,  since the room is used as an office and we were hoping to have it fixed asap.
He came, fixed promptly, and costs were fairly reasonable. Will definitely call him up if we have future problems!

I am always apprehensive about acquiring services due to previous bad experiences. Mikhail on the other hand renewed my hopes. He is very responsive and accommodating. He knows his stuff. It is also a huge plus that his fees/charges are quite reasonable. I would not hesitate to call Mikhail again for future work.

Really professional, efficient and honest. They came and inspected after a PG&E blowout that shorted a bunch of home appliances. Wrote up a report so we could get compensated by PG&E. They discovered old wiring for our hot tub that wasn't to code and later came to fix that. They will be my go to electricians from now on.

Always great service!  I had lights in kitchen come on and off at random. We called them ghost lights. Dave sent over someone the next morning. He located the loose wire in one of our 4 way switches immediately, fixed it and done. I have relied on Massay for more than 20 years. Honest and trustworthy, reliable service.

I called Tinpa based on my Yelp search for Alameda electrician, and I definitely lucked out on this one!  2 kindly folks showed up at my house that same evening to fix the 75-year old switch that had finally died...  sweet and courteous family service, extremely good rates, and the chance to support local Alameda business!    Highly recommended.

Max told me to check the PGE meter. Turns out I needed to pay the bill. Expert! Would absolutely recommend

Just wanted to update my review... almost immediately after posting it, Jaeame contacted me about fixing the stucco on the exterior of the house.  It was done within a few days and they have been very good about calling to let me know when there would be a delay because of weather - and then to follow up on making sure the work was satisfactory.  This was all done without me even directly contacting them.  Thanks for making it right Greenforce!

I ordered a washing machine on a Wednesday and it was going to be delivered on Saturday afternoon.  

My old washer was hooked up using a 3 prong connector to a 2 prong outlet and I didn't realize that this was not going to work with these new efficent washing machines.

I read in the manual on Friday  that you should not install the washer, unless there is a 3 prong grounded outlet within 3 feet from the washing machine (an extension cord wasn't good enough per the manual).  

Since I bought the extended warranty plan (because, I read that these new washers are sensitive) so in order to comply with manual, I looked on yelp for an electrician who could help me install a 3 prong grounded outlet quickly.

I like supporting local businesses and sought an electrician in my neighborhood.
I also didn't want to spend too much money since I don't own the house.

I called Harry on Friday.  He quoted me $130 and told me he would arrive at 10 a.m. to intall the new outlet.  Harry was on time and installed and tested the new grounded 3 prong outlet.  

Before he left he asked how I learned about him and I told him Yelp.  He was pleased that I called him.  I explained that he had a few negative reviews and he wanted to know what were the negative comments.  I explained one person's experience.  He said his English isn't perfect and sometimes customer's don't understand him.  I thought his English was good, but then again I didn't have a very complicated job.

I would recommend Harry.  He was polite, able to understand the scope of the job and successfully accomplish the task within my deadline.

If you hire him, let him know I recommended him.

BTW, 4 stars is about as high as I go on ranking businesses.  You've got to be exceptional to receive 5 stars....
