Came and replaced switches.  I wish he could have used the same kind as I had before

I had some electrical issues that I had no idea was wrong. Called, made an appointment, and next thing you know everything was working great.

Daniel and his son are very professional as well as very friendly. I highly recommend their service to anyone looking to get any electrical issues fixed!

Jesse came out to troubleshoot and fix a melted circuit that caused the breaker to trip. He arrived early, was prompt, professional, and fixed the issue! Check out the wires in the attached photos. He explained the issue in a way that made sense to me (I have zero knowledge of electric other than knowing I don't want to accidentally electrocute myself lol). He also explained some considerations I should take moving forward when it comes time to update the panel. Thank you, Jesse and Alpha Omega!

Writing another review for Flores Electric. We have done a number of additional projects since my last review. Most recently, they installed a level 2 charging station for us. First they figured out a clever way to use our existing panel for a 40 amp circuit. Then they ran conduit to the corner of the house and finally installed the charger. See the photos. These folks are real pros that take care with their work. Oh, and they figured out an electrical problem we had with some hallway lights that was very tricky.

I bought a brand new Tesla and was in desperate need of finding a company to install an electric charger as soon as possible. My friend highly recommended Absolute Electric so I reached out and scheduled an appointment (about a week out for booking). In the beginning, I was totally confused whether or not I needed the Tesla wall charger or the Nemah 14-50. After doing my research I went ahead with the installation of Nema 14-50.

The day of my appointment to people arrive to install my Wall charger in my garage. There was a small problem locating space in my breaker box but they quickly resolve the problem and had everything installed under an hour. They were very knowledgeable about Tesla and they're charging systems (which made me feel comfortable). It cost me around $500 with a year warranty in parts and labor. If you're looking to have a Tesla charger install definitely contact this company they are great.

Rick was amazing. He showed up on time, called when he was on his way so I didn't have to wait all day. He was super informative, friendly, patient, and told me all the options I had to install a new 110 outlet for my microwave install.

The day of the job Rick did a great job, was timely, and the end result - I have a working microwave!

I even spoke with the owner, Shane, and he was just as pleasant. His company really strives for customer service, and that's what I really appreciate. I am a single girl who has no idea about contractors or electricians but I felt comfortable letting Rick do what he needed to do. They took great care of me. I will use them in the future and definitely recommend them to others.

Contacted AOE on Sunday to have a outdoor charging connection installed for my new electric hybrid vehicle.  AOE came on Monday, gave a very competitive quote (I got three).  Josh seemed genuinely interested in understanding exactly what I wanted, provided a very timely quote (not the cheapest but 50% less than the highest) and scheduled the work for Tuesday.  The quote was detailed and included pictures of the parts to be used which greatly increased my confidence.  Josh and Juan came on time this morning, completed the job within three hours AND added a GFCI outlet in my garage without charging extra.   Result is impeccable, they are super cooperative, flexible and friendly.  No hesitation to recommend.

Fantastic electrician we called for service he was out within 45 minutes, very honest we found out that we didn't have a problem after all no charge! Very friendly and knowledgeable highly recommend.

I needed a TV Mount to be installed, along with bike racks, curtain rods and fixing the toilet flush tank.

Rostislav and Vlad were very professional and did a great job with all the installations. They were on time and completed the work as promised. The TV mount installation took longer than promised but they did not charge me for the extra time.

I would highly recommend Anytime Handyman for any repair works.

I needed a quick fix on a small electrical issue on a home I am selling. I read the excellent reviews on Yelp and decided to call Precision Electric. Expecting to have to wait several days I was extremely happy when Mark answered the phone right away and personally showed up at my place within 90 minutes. Heirs courteous, professional, knowledgeable and we even had a conversation about how much we respect and care about real craftsmanship in homes.  I was so impressed I asked Mark about some projects I need to have done in my new home. He was able to give me a rough estimate of expense and time so I could discuss options with my wife that night. Needless to say I couldn't be happier with my experience, I'm adding them to my contact list in my phone and I look forward to using Precision Electric again!

I didn't go looking for Jesse; he was recommended to me by the HVAC company that was putting in my new central air and heating. I needed to redo all the electrical in my house, since it had very old knob and tube wiring and I couldn't even put insulation in the attic on top of it. As it was, I had already picked out an electrician who I was going with, but the HVAC guys said such great things about Jesse that I had to meet with him. And I'm sure glad I did!

Jesse is a very straightforward guy. When you meet with him, he'll tell you all about himself, and his family, and his history, and how he became such an expert in the electrical field. At first you might thing TMI! But in the end, you realize that this is just Jesse trying to make you feel at ease with him, with no pressure to hire him, and he even makes it feel guilt-free if you decide to go with someone else.

The real irony here, though, is that Jesse turned out to be waaaay better than the HVAC company I hired. He was able to tell me ahead of time what they were doing wrong -- and how to fix it.  In the end, they fixed every problem there was, and I appreciate that in a company, but it really helped to have Jesse there to give me a heads up.

Jesse worked on our attic during one of the really hot spells this summer. I dropped by the house during the high heat of the day, expecting the house to be empty because it was way to hot to work, but there was Jesse -- in the attic no less -- working and sweating his butt off.  The HVAC guys, it should be noted, were no where to be seen!  I didn't want to bother Jesse, so I left and returned around 8:00 p.m. that night to see how things had been progressing. Well slap my a** and call me Judy, but there was Jesse, still in the attic, still sweating, and still working his butt off!  He really was/is the hardest working contractor I have ever seen (or likely will ever see!).  I was truly impressed with his work ethic and sense of professionalism.  But it doesn't stop there.

Jesse also has an encyclopedic knowledge of the electrical code, and can virtually quote chapter and verse of it. It was a joy to watch him yucking it up with the Code Inspector for the final inspection, and I could swear that he was finishing the inspector's sentences for him!  There were some changes to the code that weren't supposed to go into effect until later in the summer, but the inspector wanted Jesse to implement them now.  With no complaint, and with no extra charge, Jesse spent an entire additional day implementing the new code changes onto the work that he had already done.  You do NOT get service like that these days, certainly not from a contractor!

Is Jesse infallible? Not really. He is human after all.  He was not able to finish the job exactly on schedule, excluding the extra day for implementing the new code changes. But even this wasn't really his fault. The HVAC guys had hammered in some nails through three or four different lines in the attic (ugh!), and Jesse had to completely re-run those lines. He could have just spliced them at the cut, but he's way too professional for that. He never even complained about the HVAC guys doing that -- they told me about it (kudos to them for their honesty).

Jesse also did a great job of cleaning up after himself every day, which was really great. I did, at one point, blame him for the tremendous amount of drywall dust all over the floors, the walls, the furniture, etc.  He explained that he cleaned up after himself every day, but all you had to do was look around at all the dust to wonder if he was crazy. Well, once again the HVAC guys confessed to making the mess. And they even offered to hire a professional cleaning crew to come in and clean it up (which we did!). Once I factored that into the equation, I realized that Jesse was in fact super clean in the limited amount of wall work that he did (i.e., he vacuumed up after every cut into the wall).

I try to write fair and balanced reviews to be helpful to people. I realize this review sounds like I'm trying to get a job for a close family member.  But I'm not.  Well, if I had to say there was a drawback to hiring Jesse, I guess it would be that he is a small company (just himself) and for larger jobs it will take a little longer. But his prices are definitely lower than the big companies, so it all washes out in the end. Oops. That turned into a plus. Well, all I can do is recommend that you meet Jesse, let him tell you his story and give you an estimate, and then you can make up your own mind about what I'm saying.

But I do highly recommend Jesse for any and all electrical work that you might have to do.

I needed an electrical plug swapped out for a new dryer that was delivered this morning.  Ivan responded to the Yelp request within 5 minutes and was able to come out and complete the work within a couple hours.  He was extremely polite and his pricing was very fair.  Would highly recommend Ivan.

I contacted Archbold Electric due to an issue in our garage.  Considering my knowledge of electrical issues is minimal, my default was to contact an expert to try and get fixed.  Fortunately, the fix was very simple over the phone saving me much $$ in time/effort to have someone out to get diagnosed.  Thanks again!

Seems I am the first one writing reviews for Mega Power.  They actually had more reviews for the LA branch.  I read those reviews and I can tell that Gary really cares about his reputation.

OK, my story.  I was thinking of installing solar in early 2022, after learning NEM 3.0 in California would be delayed indefinitely.  I started my journey with energysage.com, and got quotes from 6 local installers, including Mega Power Electric Inc.  I've also reached out to SunPower, and left my contact at Sunrun in Costco.  I finally decided to work with Mega Power for these reasons: 1. many positive reviews; 2. their price is very competitive; 3. I work directly with the owner German (Gary), who actually does the job.  No sales; no project managers.  While those sales people are nice and professional, the process is just as as efficient as talking directly with Gary.  Mega Power does everything very fast.  Gary came to our house and took some pictures; went back and shared his initial plan; we wanted two additional panels; Gary revised the plan (within 24 hours).  One or two weeks later, Gary and his people were on my roof.  Installation of 24 panels was done within one day.  City inspector initially had questions about the ground wire.  Gary and his team came back another time, and finished #4 ground wire upgrade within a couple of hours.  Passed city inspection.  Getting approvals from PG&E (final step) was a long story.  Gary and Mega Power did whatever they could to help and I appreciate that.  Overall experience with Mega Power was quite positive.  Definitely recommend Mega Power for their efficiency, work quality, and communication.  Additional data points I would like to share: while Gary and his team worked on installation, I was busy filing complaints with another company for their no show activity in the very first scheduled meeting. Oh, my wife and I already recommended Mega Power to another lady.  I probably should collect some referral fee from Gary.

Al Smith's guys are amazing needed to switch out some light fixtures in my house showed up next day
Very professional and polite.They did a awesome job and at a great price. I would recommend them to all my friends and family
Thanks Al

I recently purchased an old...old...old house.  With it came a whole bunch of issues.  Natalie came out to provide her bid and was very honest with me about what needed to be done immediately and what could wait (as I was on a budget after the house purchase).  Not only will she be honest with you but she will do GREAT WORK!.  She was able to identify all the breakers and leave notes identifying what they turned on and off.  I put her to the test with my old house and nothing was too much for her to handle.  Can't say enough good things about Valencia Electric.

Natalie is a consummate professional and I always felt very comfortable with her, whether she was working on her own while I was at work (via a lockbox key) or while I was typing away on the keyboard in the front room.  Natalie even came in huge when the delivery men bringing my stove nearly electrocuted themselves when not plugging it in correctly.

I still have some items on my list to take care of once I get more cash...like the nob and tube wiring in the attic......and will 100% call Valencia Electric for the work.  I have now found MY electrician!  No need to look any further....Natalie is the best!!

We had better electric do 4 recessed lights in our office space. Tyler's bid came in significantly lower than competitors and was able to do the work within our timeframe as well. Chris was very professional and had the job done in a single evening. Would recommend!

Definitely use them if you want to continue to receive sales phone calls from them once every 2 months.  Annoying.  Never using them again.

They did an average job.  Not terribly friendly.

I asked Orbis Electrical Works for help with adding an outlet to my toilet wall for a new Toto washlet toilet seat. They came to my house for a free estimation on time and answered my questions very patiently. A few days later, they came to complete the project promptly. I'm happy to have them help with my project, and will definitely hire them again when needed in the future.

Divine Electric did a terrific job in rewiring much of our home.  They were with us for five days during which time they were courteous and friendly.  Their work was outstanding.  Ryan - the team leader - does an excellent job.  He was thorough,  kept us informed, and did his best to keep our inconvenience to a minimum. We were very impressed that before they left at the end of the job, every electrical outlet, switch and appliance was checked to be sure that everything was working.
