Best Electricians in California

Changed 3 outlet plugs in a timely manner and affordable price. Thanks Lawrence! A++++

I just spoke to an electrician that was at my work changing all of our lights from fluorescent for LEDs.  I told him I just had mine replaced and asked him if I was charged a reasonable amount. He said the supplies were about $150. Which means I was charged $600 for a 40 minute job. Very disappointing, I thought he was a really nice honest guy, but you just never know.

Kevin with KLM Utilities was a pleasure to work with in upgrading the electrical panel of my home in SF. He provided a competitive price, finished the work quickly, and handled the whole project without missing a beat including city permit and inspection.  He is great with updates on progress and answering any questions. It did take a few weeks to get the project on his book, which is a good thing - in this market any good contractor should be busy.

Wanted to charge is $89 to come out for an estimate. No thanks - should share that upfront before wasting everyone's time

Jeff did a great job replacing our bathroom faucet. He arrived right on time and returned the same day when we noticed a small leak from the trap under the sink.  This was due to a prior installation and he fixed it right up.  I give him 5 stars. Rated 4 stars due to my frustration with getting any kind of approximate estimate on the cost of this task in advance.

Alex added new recessed lighting to a vaulted ceiling with difficult access and troubleshot an existing wiring problem. The job was well done, efficient, and cost effective. I will be hiring this guys again. Thank you

Can't recommend Paul enough! He did some work at my office wiring Ethernet cable. The end result was very professional, and well done. Paul definitely goes the extra mile and I'll be hiring him next time I have a wiring need for sure.

Rick with R Pro works hard to get your job done with a fair price.
Honest, hardworking with a great attitude to please the customer.

Wow.  Ertan is great.  First, we had a light fixture fall from our ceiling in our warehouse, and I called Magnolia based on their Yelp reviews (I actually called 4-5 companies but Ertan answered).  Ertan was the only one who actually answered the phone, and when I told him of the problem, he was concerned about the light being a hazard and came to our warehouse within an hour.  He was right...the falling light had severed some of it's wires, so Ertan cut them and capped them off safely until he could do the repair the next day.   And the next day he appeared on time, with a helper (high ceiling), and although he had quoted a new light fixture, proudly repaired the old one and deducted the cost from my bill!  Does it get any better than this?  Actually, it does.  We asked Ertan as long as he was at the warehouse if he might ID the breaker that controlled our security camera.  He did so at no extra charge.  OK, so now I'm a HUGE fan, and I would give him 10 stars if I could.  On more thing...the cost for two visits, capping off the wires on day 1 and repairing a fallen light fixture on day 2, re-installing all the fallen conduit, AND identifying the security camera breaker?....under $200, which is beyond fair and reasonable in my book.  Ertan is my new electrician for any of my business needs.

This review is for work done in January 2016, but finally getting around to writing reviews.

Ash and his coworker came over to do multiple projects that spanned the entire day. We had an initial conversation over the phone and he gave some rough estimates and they knocked out what could be done in one day.

This included: installing a new electrical dryer hookup from the circuit box, installing a new bathroom vent, upgrading the bathroom from knob & tube, and adding an outdoors electrical box. He stayed within his estimated prices and did a very thorough job.

I look forward to working with him and his coworker on upgrading the rest of the K&T outlets that we have in the house.

Nadav and his crew were great. We upgraded our panel and thanks to them it all finished in one looooooong say. They came early morning and left late evening. Nadav called and was here during the inspection and informed me right after, of course we passed. They are real deal, not cheap but you definetely get what you pay for. I am looking forward for the kitchen and other electrical projects. They are absolutely one of the best and again thanks Nadav.

Francisco and his team are very professional, provide great service and job was well done! I definitely will use their service next time when needed!

I highly recommend Serge Electric because you can trust Serge with confidence! He kindly offered to reduce the cost of his visit because he fixed the problem so quickly. The plugs in our kitchen weren't working. We thought it would be a complex repair to the circuit breaker panel, but when Serge arrived, he found a concealed plug with reset buttons. He simply pressed the reset button, which fixed the problem. Normally, Serge would charge $180 for the first hour and $100 for each hour thereafter, which seems totally reasonable and similar to the rates of other professionals in this type of work. The reduced cost for his visit due to the easy fix is a testament to Serge's generosity, honesty, and integrity. I know I can trust Serge not to take advantage of my lack of knowledge regarding electrical issues. I would definitely call Serge again if we experience any electrical problems--he is both friendly and trustworthy. (He's also prompt: Serge came to our home immediately, arriving within 20 minutes.) I give Serge Electric my highest recommendation!

I've used Renaldo and SOS Electric for a number of installation and repair jobs and am so happy with their work.  Usually easy to schedule and more importantly, the work is always done right.  We have an older home and it seems like something is always breaking.  Out of all the contractors I work with, SOS is the best.  I enjoy working with them and know I can trust them.

Angel is easy to work with and did a great job replacing old switches, plugs, Cat5, recessed lighting and more. I'd hire him again in a second.

Sergei came to install an EV charger for me. He was able to get the work done expediently despite issues with the initial configuration of the fuse box that necessitated quite a bit of rewiring (and a run to Home Depot to retrieve some compatible wiring). He showed up on time, didn't quit until all the work was done despite the scope of the job changing. Very satisfied with final result and would definitely look to him for future projects

Well, today is St. Patrick's day and I had the luck of the Irish to have found Jason and Grant.  I woke up this morning to find about 25% of my electric outlets and lights  out.  I called a few other local folk and got a bit of a run around.  Then I called Anderholm Electric.  Jason, who actually answers his own phone,  first tired to walk me through a few easier fixes, none of which worked.  He was finishing up a large job but assured me he would come see what was going on before he wrapped up for the day.  I was very impressed with his willingness to help a new customer at practically a moment's notice. He and Grant arrived a few hours later and within minutes had diagnosed the issue, moved a massive piece of furniture and set about fixing the offending wires which were causing the short.  Jason notice a few other electrical issues we hadn't even talked about and fixed those as well.  It was like having super heroes fly in, whip everything into shape and fly out again leaving everything way better than they found it. Their expertise, empathy and experience were deeply appreciated.

I have never used Woo Electric Co as electricians (I never had the need); however, they also manage/own a few rental properties. As my landlord, this family-run business is great. It is an unusual and very telling perspective being a tenant. Just knowing the family over the last 4 years, I trust them. Tim is the front-man handling the day-to-day contact with his brother Aaron behind the scenes backing Tim up. Occasionally you get to meet the old man, Chester (very personable). If I had a need for an electrician, I would call these guys first...

Great service!  I got an appointment quickly and easily for troubleshooting some bad circuitry at my house.  They were fast and thorough, and called me with a very helpful explanation of everything they had found.  Highly recommended.

Dennis did a variety of work for us in our small home, from landscape lighting, to running new outlets through the basement, to fixing broken can lights. I've used one other electrician with a lower rate in the past, but Dennis was much more productive, so I feel his slightly higher rate is easily justified. Dennis was also very professional and got along famously with our dog. I'll be recommending Dennis to all my friends and look forward to having him back for larger projects in the future.

Update Oct 2019:

Dennis now insists on being paid for the time it takes to bid on the project. Given my previous experience, I would have just had him do it without contacting others, but now? Now I won't use him and certainly won't recommend him to others.
