Best Businesses in California

Six stars . This is long so sit down. For a year we looked for a fixer upper on the Monterey Peninsula . We found one that was cosmetically great but mechanically
neglected . We wanted it and figured mechanics would be easier than cosmetics cuz no fight over which color,
which faucets ,which cabinets etc..
House was built in 1941 so electrical was Knob and tube .Scary to some but  terrifying to INSURANCE CO.s  !  No one would touch the house except AAA. and they said you have 60 days to rewire the
whole house,1800 sq ft. , and if not they are out . Enter Kody Wright owner of Wright Electric.  We explained to him our
dilemma and he explained our options .We waited two weeks for them to clear their calendar and went with a time and material bid cuz no way of knowing  what they will find til the cut open the house . He gave us a range of price and time to do the job . It took twice as long because of a crawl space only 18
tall but Kody stayed within the price range . Everything worked great , looked  great( repair of plaster walls) etc . Kody's
family is in the const business so when we moved on passed electrical we used his connections ( brother-in-laws )  for paint, insulation, french drain , pest remediation Etc . What I  need going forward I'll be callin in the Wright Brothers !!!
Thanks to all ; Kody, Austin,Raphael ,Kevin, and Iron Mike .

Special shout-out to Dana Schmerber and Josh  of Monterey Custom Tile and Fabrication who took care  of so many thing but who I didn't find on Yelp

For an $89 diagnostic fee, I got a quote of $579/$589 to replace the gas valve on my Coleman furnace.  After calling his boss the repairman then informed me that the replacement valve was no longer available and my only recourse was to replace the furnace at an estimated cost of $3600 to $4800 dollars!

I called another repair service who promptly ordered the replacement valve from the Coleman supplier and completed the repair 2 days later for a total cost of $273.84. The real repairman, Phil Bogner, also told me that if he had to replace the furnace it would cost approximately $2200!

Cheers for Phil, boos for Bellows.

Sam and his team at Hi-Tech AV did a good job installing a complete home theatre system with 5.1 in ceiling speakers, in ceiling projector mount and an audio rack. I found him knowledgeable as he could provide good guidance on different equipment options along with each of their pros and cons. The price for most of his equipment suggestions were usually high because they were all of high end, high quality grade, but after  installation and using system, we're really enjoying it and feel it was really worth it for the home theater experience.
