Excellent plumbing service! Technicians or plumbers are very experienced and friendly, especially Ray!

Thank you Freedom Underground Plumbing and Freddy for squeezing me into his tight schedule. Had a leak under the concrete slab, originally thought. Hired a detection leak detection from another company but the technician falsely identify the location and suggested smashing and removal of concrete along with repiping , along with calling US gas to mark gas pipe(luckily I went with Freedom Plumbing)...otherwise I may have ended up paying more than I should and project may even take longer.

Freddy sent over the plumber Ramiro who quickly located the leak location which was NOT under the concrete as the other leak detection technician said. The leak was caused by tree root which broke the irrigation pipe.  After the locating the leak, the tree was removed along with root. The leak pipe was identify, cut, and replaced. Mr.Ramiro has a very hard working ethic and determinaton who work tirelessly in the rain for 7 Hours. Arrived at 8:25am, tree removed at 11am, remove small portion of concrete and replace pipe. After 7 hours working in the rain, Ramiro had to call it a day before the rain was too hard and the hole he dug for identify the the pipe was too continously filled with water regardless how hard the pump work. So he called it a day and return 2 days later completing the project.

Overall rating 5 stars.
* First star awarded for quick availability and quote from Freddy
** 2nd star Plumber Ramiro who quickly jump on the job
*** 3rd star Plumber Ramiro who identify and locate the leak (which is totally different from the leak detection technician had said. Wasted 500 dollar hiring the leak detection technician)
****  4th star award also to Plumber Ramiro for his determination and hard working ethic, 7 hours in the pouring rain.  You have my applaud sir.
***** Last star for Freedom underground Plumber for their hard work, I called 8 different plumbing companies for quote, none of them came close to the price as Freedom Underground Plumber offer nor their availability.

We got installed a new wash-let (heated Bidet Toilet Seat ).
We got it by Amazon. I first thought it should be installed by my husband easily. But we didn't have an electric outlet. And water pipes were not matching nicely.

So we called a few of handyman services, and SVV responded us nicely.

Their service was on time, and worked very nicely and sincerely.
Lots of thanks

So we had our first leaky pipes in our home and naturally, I was nervous about finding a good plumber since I've never needed one. Thanks goodness for Yelp. Did a search and Yehia at Alansi's sounded like a great plumber. Sure enough, he's exactly as everyone here describes. Honest, Punctual, Competent, Fairly Priced...I have a plumber I would WHOLE HEARTEDLY recommend and use in the future. Thanks Yehia!

Excellent service from Emil, he has done few jobs for us. On one occasion we were having problems with hot water and we got several plumbers who quoted us $3k+ for tank-less water heater replacement. Emil was the only one who recommended checking all the faucets in the house.

Rightly enough there were two faulty shower knobs that were mixing the hot and cold water, the replacement cost us few hundred dollars instead of incorrectly replacing the water heater. Emil is our first choice for all plumbing needs and wish if we can give more than five stars here!!

Voltz Electric came on schedule, finished the job on time and did a thorough job upgrading a 55 year old house with numerous out of code installations.  Created a much more useful patio lighting with LED lights.  Fair price.

Jason is the owner of Wolfe Electric and installed Tesla EV charger in the garage. Jason sets  the Gold standard for service, prompt response, cost , honesty and customer satisfaction. I found Jason/Wolfe Electric on Yelp after extensive search and customer reviews. Jason is best in class and recommend him highly.!!!

Checked this company out on Yelp after calling up one of their competitors. After not getting a call back, I checked out yelp and the reviews of Willow Glen Electric. They were great! I got a live person when I called the office, and set  up a time the following day to have some work done in my mother's San Jose home. Matt came out to do the estimate. No high pressure and  he was on time, polite, thorough and did the job requested in a timely fashion at a very fair price. No clean up; no mess; no fuss.  I would highly recommend this company for any electrical work in your home or business.

Minh is very organized and knowledgeable regarding his work. He is always on time and very detailed oriented. I will recommend him to my friends without any hesitation!

I do not write usually write reviews but would have felt guilty if i had not written this. I called Absolute power for an emergency at my home on a weekend after trying many other places who did not even respond or quoted very high $$ just to come, that too after few hours. Absolute Power not only picked the phone right away but on hearing the emergency, guided me right away to do some diagnostics which fixed the problem.

Had they wanted they could have made some easy money by sending over someone but they really care ! Very rare breed of people with honesty and integrity, they will be my go to folks for any electrical work at home!!!

This is a long overdue review. Roger and his team installed recessed lighting in our entire house last year. Roger was pleasant and responsive in answering questions and in scheduling our job. His team was timely and quick to install the lighting in one day.  They were clean in vacuuming up any mess too. And his prices were reasonable.  This year we had some lights that were malfunctioning due to the old wiring in the house.  He answered the phone and quickly responded by sending out his workers to replace the lights at no charge.  Now that's service!  I've already recommended to a friend who hired them too.

Excellent service, will for sure use them again.  

We had a power failure issue, most of the house was without power during the weekend.  I placed the call on Sunday morning and electrician came out same day and  fixed the power issue by around 3 pm.  Thank you Duke Electric.

I see there are a lot of 5 stars reviews here. He probably does some decent works for those guys.  I am telling you my experience with Henry.

Portions of lights on the same circuit breaker went out, including a ceiling fan. I was hoping to find an electrician to assess what the problem might be and attempt to repair for me.

To be fair, he came on time.  Upon arrival, he told me it's $120 instead of the $90 he told me over phone two days ago.

He started putting his detector around each of the breakers in my power panel. Somehow for some reason, the lights just came on. That was about 5 minutes.  Then he started preaching he had temporarily fixed my problem, but the bigger and real problem is my outdated Zinsco panel.  To do a complete replace, he needs to work with PG&E and the city, the total cost is $2500.  He then charged me $120 for the diagnosis.  

Two hours later, the lights failed to turn on again, I wanted to have him back, he said if I wanted to have him back for a troubleshoot, it is $450.  Again, to be fair, he did say the $120 I paid can be applied to the $450.

Throughout his service, he did not even bother to troubleshoot at all. He did not even open wall switch box of the problem lights to measure voltage, or listen to me describe the symptoms I observed; rather he spent time telling me my panel is old (sure, of course I know), and stated in Marin county, it is illegal to have this kind of Zinsco panel because of fire hazard, then urged me to go online to see the complaints on Zinsco panel. Again, to be fair, he said I should get bids from other electrician and see how much it cost to replace, which implied he did not force me to get the work done by him.  

Well, I would rather have him spend the one hour to really troubleshoot my problem, just like another electrician did later. I had Dale Aimers came over and fixed my problem. It was a wire nut in the ceiling fan box that went loose.

I complained to him, I told him I was not happy to pay $120 for virtually nothing done.  I suggested $50 for his time and gas, he agreed, and refunded me $70 dollars, he agreed to my term, that was a star added.

I had an exterior fixture that hasn't worked for years. Was sick of walking up the driveway in the dark. Enter, Adary electric! Scheduling was easy via phone. I explained my issue and was advised to purchase a new fixture.

So glad I was prepared. Jeff showed up on time. Super courteous, fast and competent. I still had time left in my hour minimum and he helped me trouble shoot another fixture. Great value! I will definitely call again for my electrical needs!
Thank you!!

The day our solar contractor installed our panels, one of our circuit breakers started tripping.  They tested the breaker and said it was fine, but that there was a short circuit somewhere.

I contacted a number of local electricians for help.  Some of them were unavailable, the rest offered to come and look and then give us a quote within the next few days.  Nick gave me a price up front and came that same afternoon.  He was able to identify the location of the short: in the roof where the solar panels had just been installed! A nail from one of the supports was the most likely suspect. Nick then devised a plan to bypass the short location, re-wiring the circuit under the crawl space.

The work was significantly dirtier and more arduous than Nick had been expecting, but he was very willing and clearly knew exactly what he was doing.  We ended the day with all circuits fully functional.  I will definitely call Nick and Electrica for any future electrical work.  Thank you Nick!

I hired Electric Heroes (EH) to put up two GFCI outlets, one in each of my two toilets, so that we can use a toilet bidet seat.  I had sent out a request on Yelp, and many companies with good reviews felt that a heating bidet would require a dedicated line and so they would not install one in a condo.  Electric heroes and only one or two others responded.  Only EH gave me a free virtual estimate of $760 for the job, $380 for each toilet.  The estimate did not include the patch up job that would be required; I could hire a handyman myself to do that later.  Little did I know that it would be a real horror! (See attached photos)  I finally hired EH.  They did come on the scheduled day, took about half an hour to tell me what they would do, and also verified using a meter that the bidet would not require a dedicated line.  Anyway, he said that he would require to make about 8 holes in one toilet and 6 in the other and that there is no other way to do this job.  Well, he was a real nice guy and I agreed.  After he was done, we were rather shocked to see the large number of gaping holes.  Well, since this is the only way it can be done, I paid them and then hired a handyman again through Yelp to help close the holes.  He arrived and told me (he does electrician jobs too) that EH had really made a mess and spoiled the wall.  They had drilled a hole at every slat point so that they could in turn drill a hole through that slat to pass a wire.  He said that he had drill bits up to six feet long so that with just three and two holes (respectively), he could have finished a job.  He also showed me a video where he created only five holes to pass a wire from one end of a living room to another via a roof.  He also said that for $760, he would have even patched the holes and painted the wall, not just done the electric work.  Anyway.  I had to pay $540 to do the patch work and painting.  So the total cost of the job came to $1300, $650 per outlet!

I bought a house with no bathroom exhaust fan , called Dan for a quote . Got it installed and the wifey is happy . Dan is honest , and good what he does .Highly recommended .  Thanks Dan

I am so glad to have found EChiBon on Yelp!  We hired Jim to install a Tesla Charger in the garage.   He was very responsive and professional from the very beginning.  His estimates were competitive.  Initially, there was some misunderstanding about where the charger should be installed and he had to come twice.  When Jim came the first time, he didn't have the right material to extend the charger away from the back of the panel to our desired location.  He was very cool about this and agreed to come back a week later.  Indeed, a week later, he came back and installed the charger exactly where we wanted it.  It was a great experience - he let us know when he would come, he came within the time window, and the work was excellent. I will definitely ask for Jim's service in the future and recommend him to friends and family.   Thank you for a job well done!

An electrician that answers the phone and actually shows up?  Is that a real thing?  YES!

I was able to get a same-day appointment to have a burnt out outlet looked at and replaced.  Clifford (the NICEST guy!) showed up and got the job done quickly.  He was also able to give me an estimate on a panel upgrade that we will definitely be hiring Fast Handy Electric to do for us.  

15/10 would recommend again.  I've found my new go-to for any electrical work I'm going to need in the future.

I found Electrical residential services here on Yelp and decided to give them a call. I was pleased to have David the owner answer the call straight away and offer to come by to look at the work I needed to have done the next day.

David was on time and after a few moments of dicussing my job I was completely confident his extensive experience in electrical work would make them a perfect fit for my job.

We had about 20 lights as a part of a new landscape project as well as the addition of a new circuit and several new GFI receptacles that needed installation. David worked quickly and was also very careful not to damage our house (paint, walls, etc) and then cleaned up thoroughly.

The following day,  Electrical residential services actually called me as a follow up to make sure I didn't have any additional questions regarding their work. Way to go guys! I had a great experience with them and am currently recommending them to friends and family.
