Best Businesses in California

We need to have fiber optic cables run through our house to our central media enclosure. Raphael was by far the best among a dozen electricians and contractors we contacted. He was professional and his experience showed. He was very technical and thorough. He spent time evaluating and explaining all our options. We are still deciding whether we want to make the investment in our house for fiber optic so we can use Sonic as our internet service provider or stick with Comcast, who we are very dissatisfied with. If we move forward with the project, we will definitely be using Raphael. In fact, he will be our electrician going forward for everything. He has the utmost integrity; we trust him 100%.

Elvin from Araz Electric came out of fix an outlet the very next day after contacting. He was very professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommended for all electrical needs.

We had them come and do an estimate for us. We called them back to schedule the work and they said they would call us back. They never called us back. I called them three days later to try and schedule once again and they scheduled us for Thursday. Thursday came and went and no one called us and no one showed up. Absolutely horrible service.

After browsing a long list of Tesla charger installers, I ultimately chose Fruitdale Electric. Within days of my initial contact, they visited my home and provided a quote, which was much faster than I expected.

On installation day, their technicians arrived promptly. They installed a Tesla gen 3 charger, surge protection, and ran electrical wiring through my attic to the opposite side of the house. Despite the terrible weather at the time, they delivered flawless work.

The location of the charger was a challenge due to the tight space, and I had anticipated conduit running outside of my house. However, they exceeded my expectations and executed an incredibly clean installation with no visible wires or conduits, leaving just a Tesla charger on the wall exactly where I wanted it. Most importantly, my car now charges at a rate of over 40mph, a significant improvement from the previous rate of 4mph.

My mom was returning home after surgery and needed a few critical things taken care of in her home. Jamil replied to my request for a quote promptly, and agreed to squeeze us in the next day. He fixed a broken toilet, a few poorly wired lights and outlets that had been out forever, and evaluated / made recommendations for a few additional projects. He was prompt, courteous, skilled, honest, and affordable. We've already signed him up for a few new projects.

Highly recommended!

Over the last several months I have had Ed work on a number of small to medium jobs for me. He has exceeded my expectations. I can't say enough good things about Ed. He is fast but meticulous. Really knowledgeable. I thought for being so young that he couldn't possibly be that experienced but trust me he is and then some. I love his story too: working with his dad from a young age putting those 10,000 hours in and he loves to do this type of valuable work.

I am someone who likes to ask a lot of questions and compared to other handymen and contractors I have worked with he is very patient. He is such a down to earth, calm and genuine guy. Will almost always give you multiple options including some you can do yourself for a fraction of the cost if the option is there and will give you tips too. He explains things very well and puts you at ease. I also like that he pushed back on a couple of requests he didn't feel comfortable doing himself. I say this because I have had handymen or contractors in the past that have over-committed to doing additional work they weren't experienced enough at and the work ended up looking lousy.

Here is some of the work he has done for me:
 - Installed an outdoor ring camera flood light. The work with the wiring was super clean and professional. I was expecting a good job but this was one of many things he did that fair exceeded my expectations.
 - Moved a garage outlet and installed new GFCI outlet. The previous one and the position of it was too close to a waterspout, posing a hazard I worried about for quite some time. So happy he did this and again such a professional job!
 - Installed a retractable extension cord on the garage ceiling which comes in handy for vacuuming the car in front of the garage, working with power tools and for our treadmill that is in the garage.
- Removed a bike hoist from my ceiling (it no longer worked for us because it was getting in the way of things). He suggested and installed some side rack mounts instead. These are a way better option for us. Makes the bikes more accessible and more likely to be used.
- Installed a motion-sensor side yard light.
- He removed a pedestal sink from my downstairs bathroom and did the work necessary to install a combo cabinet sink: cut the baseboards, installed faucet, did the plumbing underneath, secured it, re-positioned the hand towel holder and mirror and installed a toilet roll holder. Excellent job!
 - Fixed a recessed light on my high ceiling. The housing had previously been pulled out of the ceiling.
 - Fixing a broken stair nose, replaced multiple doorknobs, installed cabinet rollout racks, fixed plumbing issue with dishwasher.  Replaced kitchen faucet.
 - Installed some fence panels, properly securing them in place including giving me two gate openings. This work was done to prevent our dogs from peeing on and killing plants.
 - Fixed multiple electrical outlets upstairs that had been non-functional for years. We had previously done all the 101 troubleshooting and attempts at fixing: GFCI switch reset, breaker reset but to no avail. At first, he tried one thing then another and then another until he finally figured it out. He did the job of a professional electrician and he traced the issue down to an outlet downstairs. I never would have guessed that to be the source of the problem. Amazing job!

Ed is someone I can trust and I am happy to have met him and to have had him do all this work. I am extremely satisfied. I will continue using his services any time I have these jobs I can't do myself: whether it be for lack of time, skill or both :-).

Johnathan was very helpful and professional. He came on time and quoted me reasonable rate to get the job done. I will be happy to call him again for next job

I thought the price was on the high side to install a couple outdoor flood lights, but I have nothing but good things to say about workers. The owner came and gave me a quote on the same day. He also pulled a couple guys to work on my project right away in his busy work schedule. When they arrived, I was asleep and didn't hear them, and they waited outside for me for about 30 min. They were not only nice about the whole situation, the three young fellows were respectful and polite. They completed the job in timely fashion, removed left over wirings and clean up when the job was completed. One of the fellows, who happens to be the owner's son, went above and beyond to remove a couple old attachments after he overheard a conversation I had with my wife. I will gladly hire them for any future electrical work.

We needed lighting fixtures repaired in our warehouse cooler at work and Moises replied real quick, came and gave an estimate all in a very quick time. No hassle, straight shooter, and got the job done sooner than my timetable. Easy to work with, highly recommended. Thanks Tari Electric!

Really found a good one here! Punctual, efficient, fair and knowledgeable. Skilled and professional demeanor.
5 stars for certain!!!

Rick lives up to his many Yelp reviews.  Fairly priced, quality work and if you ask provides reccomendations based on style, cost and functionality.  Above and beyond all that he is prompt, communicates well on scheduling, timing and cost.  I just moved to the area and have found my go to electrician!

I requested a quote, they answered, they set a appointment, they came, they fixed it! Easy, simple, extremely professional and knowledgeable! The 2 gentlemen that came today where very professional and I was very happy to get my power back up. Thank you.

Reasonably priced, pleasant, polite. Andrew called ahead as promised, arrive on time and was through in evaluating and resolving our plumbing problem.

Have had some not great experiences with other electrician's but SV electric is super great! Very qualified, very nice to work with, prompt response to my request, works fast and competent! Could not have asked for  better service. Outstanding!

Knowledgeable and detail oriented approach provided. Needed upgrades to the electric panel to accommodate the switch from a gas to electric water heater. The team was able to diagnose the issue, fully communicate the available options, and help create a plan to address the situation. The team is RESPONSIVE and will definitely use them AGAIN. I highly recommend them.

working with Chuck was a delight.
I hired Chuck to complete a job left in the middle by a stupid company that was recommended by my insurance agent.

Chuck came in and finished the job professionally and was very respectful. he is also a man of his word, he initially estimated the work to be completed in 2 days but when we got into it, it actually took him an extra day and he did not charge me extra, what a professional.

I would certainly recommend Chuck's work to all the Yelp users.

I tried to work with Emanuel based on a recommendation from a friend. It took a long time to get hold of him, but I waited.  Then I spent a lot of time explaining in detail (to Emanuel) what my issues and concerns were and we set a time and day for Emanuel to come by and take care of things.  Day of the appointment, someone knocks on my door and says he doesn't know where Emanuel is, but he's here to fix my electrical issues.  Then he asks me what my issues are.  My head caught fire at that point.  Emanuel literally texted me right before that knock, saying that HE was on his way - then someone else shows up with no clue of what I needed?  I got no notice, no call, no text, no nothing from Emanuel to explain this??  Not before, during, or after.  This happened months ago and I'm still fuming about this entire experience.  I paid hundreds of dollars for 10 minutes of work and not even half of what I expected to get.  I could have hired a handyman and paid 1/4 for the same work (changing two outlets).  They may not care about my business, but best believe they cashed my check real QUICK.

I almost walked away from writing this review, but nobody had any basic courtesy to follow up like they told me they would.  Naive me was even willing to give them more business.  Honesty, integrity, and communication are important in any service business.  It seems Emanuel has too much business to worry about every customer.  Glad I moved on.

I actually called a few company before going with california power and light . All I wanted was a dedicated 110 outlet outdoor and next to my garage. Everyone didn't want to do it unless it was for a car charger or a solar install.  One electrician said it was not even possible. After one call ; they came the next day and installed my outlet . Great service and no bs! thanks again
