Best Businesses in California

I put a quote to install shelves in my garage and Ryan was the only one who wanted to see what the project entailed. He quoted a price of 5-6 hours for $500 for labor and helped me select the material so I could order it thru Home Depot. He installed the shelves within less than 3 hrs and did a very good job. Unfortunately, I still had to pay $500.  His work is commendable and clean.

I spoke with Katrina about an electrical problem I was having at my condo.  She was extremely knowledgeable and didn't charge an arm and a leg to fix it.  I will never use another electrician in the Sana Cruz area.  The place really IS as good as it gets!  GIve them a call.

Wilson was prompt, knowledgeable and did good work. He gave a competitive bid to install an EV charge Point hard wired into box. Really nice guy. I'll definitely hire him again.

I really put Sam and his helpers through their paces in the past month: a serious underground conduit repair, establishing a new appliance circuit, adding a 220v outlet to a workshop, and finally, a subtle and difficult maneuver involving connecting a built-in appliance to a box that was just a few inches in the wrong place, inside a tight-as-a-drum installation space. While working in the main panel he proclaimed the work space too dark (which it was), so he threw in a utility light while he was in there. I'm completely satisfied with the work, the prices, and Sam's optimistic, can-do spirit.

The most difficult job, finding and fixing an underground electrical line that traveled partly under the driveway, partly right through the roots of a tree (the line having arced, melted and burned while underground!), was fixed durably and beautifully. Another electrician had refused to even attempt it, saying we should bypass the underground line and just string an ugly overhead line to the workshop. Not Sam: he had it diagnosed, found, dug up and repaired before the day was out.

A neighbor referred Alpha General Electric to me, saying Sam maintained a number of her rental properties. Which said to me that he's seen it all, and become resourceful at finding problems and fixing them quickly and on a budget. I was not disappointed.

Unfortunately the schedule set by our Solar Company kept us from being able to use Cross Electrical, but I still wanted to give a 5 star review  because they were the only electrical company to call us back (and quickly) and were extremely helpful and professional on the phone. We will definitely keep them in mind for future jobs!

Great communication! Did very professional job, and did what he promised. I found an electrician for life...very professional. Would highly recommend for EV power installation!

Dave came over to my house to take a look at some ceiling fans which were noisy.  I made some quick and easy adjustments to them and now they are quiet.  He did a great job.

Bob is fantastic!  Called him today after a bunch of things in my bathroom shut off - after describing my problem and explaining the diagnostics I had already run, he kept coming back to it likely being a GFI trip....upon his advice, did one more lap of the bathroom and realized way inside the linen closet, covered behind a bunch of towels, was an outlet that was tripped and turns out this box fed the entire bathroom with power.   One click and my problem solved! I had just moved into this place, so never realized it was there and didn't see it the first time and probably would have dismissed it if it wasn't for Bob's keen sense that what I was describing sure sounded like a GFI problem.  He did this all free of charge - just and honest practioner being a great community member.   Greatly appreciated Bob!!!  I'll be calling you back to come out for an estimate for my electric car charger!

Very pleased with Castillo Electric!  Jose helped me solve my main problem over the phone for no charge.  I was appreciative & had a few other minor things to fix at my house, so I described what I needed & he said it would probably only take an hour to do the work.  He stopped by later that day & took an hour just like he said, for a reasonable charge of $200-$300 total including materials. Highly recommended!

We had a great experience with this electric company they are reliable punctual efficient and have great reasonable prices their quality of work is great. I would recommend them to any of my family and friends. Thank you so much Arash.

These excellent guys got so few five-star reviews? LOL, they are too low profile. I'm a reator and they are so far the best I have worked with. This time, they did a smaller project for our own home.
They don't charge the cheapest ( I have quoted several good-reviewed licensed electricians), but they are not the most expensive too. Price is just one thing, the more important thing is:
1. They are super professional. Eveey details had been taken into consideration. And their crew is very clean, always clean up any mess after working day. Very polite too.
2. They are very creative. There are several non-standard problems, and they are the only person who proposed perfectly work-around solution. I like that they are sharing their much knowledge and experience with me, instead of saying simply no or doing larger disruptive project to our walls and current electrical system.
3.  Very easy to work with. The owner Gustavo is funny to talk with:) and Alfanso is very responsive, always explain to me about details and different options. And document them as much as possible to keep us on the same page. ( we change our requirements for several times)

Highly recommend if you need a professional and respectful electrician.

Seth was awesome from start to finish! He was friendly, gave a prompt estimate, showed up on time, and didn't appear frustrated with my lack of understanding with basic questions regarding placement of the EV charging station in my garage. :-) He installed a dusk-til-dawn timer for my outside lights, a Nest doorbell, and an EV charging station. He did a wonderful job, and he is now definitely my go-to for all electrical needs!

We did an extensive remodel and our contractor used Alpine Mountain Electric to do all the wiring, and install all the fixtures. Brian and Daniel did a very neat and professional job. They had some suggestions on our switch locations and what the switches should control, sometimes we took their input and sometimes we didn't. In either case once the decision was made they quickly implemented it and moved on. They also had good input and knowledge about the different lighting options (LED, fluorescent, halogen, incandescent) and how/where the different types would best be used. Brian is into music and AV systems so is a great knowledge base on speakers, speaker wiring, and speaker placement. We had Alpine wire the house and install in-wall speakers for the house and outside deck. He was flexible in that if I wanted to do the speakers he could just do the wiring and let me install the speakers later on my own.

They also added some switches for outside plugs in case we needed them for future landscape lighting. At the time we didn't think it was necessary, but now that our yard is being landscaped those little extras are turning out to be very useful. Our landscaper has mentioned that he is impressed at how the electrical was set up.

We had one GFCI plug stop working a few months after moving in and Daniel came out the next day to replace it at no charge. If/when we need any future electrical work done we'd definitely go with Alpine again.

I called LGE today to hopefully get someone out to my house. Expecting to have to schedule an appointment for days/weeks out, I was pleasantly surprised to know that they could dispatch someone within 30 minutes.
Jim (the owner) showed up and was very pleasant and knowledgable. He fixed my oven in about 15 minutes, cleaned up dangling wires in about 5, then helped me take down a hideous light fixture in a bathroom. It was the most productive and well spent money I have ever spent.
After the appointment, I asked Jim to send over a quote for additional light installment work and, again, expecting this to take a few days, he sent it over in a few hours. Such a great experience and I will definitely be using them again.

We had an issue with a breaker on our electric panel and a general contractor referred us to Rick at B & B Electric.  Rick came out quickly and was able to diagnose the problem and offered several solutions.  Because we had a fairly dangerous Zinsco Panel, we decided to replace and upgrade the entire electric panel as well as relocate it.  Rick is fast and professional.  His work is very clean and attractive and he scheduled and met with the city inspector for our permit.  He even worked with our home warranty provider to help cover some of the repairs.

A few weeks later when I was having issues with my pool pump, he came out quickly and diagnosed and repaired the electrical system for the pool.  His repair included changing the voltage of the pumps which should reduce the cost of operation.  Very smart!

I highly recommend Rick and B&B.  Professional, clean, and fast.  On top of that, he is a very, very nice guy.

Cole is very personable and responds quickly.  I had him fix all kinds of electrical problems with my house that were bugging me, put in new power outlets, hung a ceiling fan, ran an outlet to the outside of my house and even suggested great solutions to problems that I had.  His ideas and suggestions are great.  His prices are reasonable and he has been upgrading his skills to handle whole house batteries, generators and emergency power to homes.  My girlfriend used him to fix a fountain that was not working, installed new outdoor lights, is there anything that he does not do?  I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I've already had Eagle Electric do several jobs at our new place including a post close inspection, bringing items up to code, and various enhancement on the inside and outside.   They always have options depending on your budget.  Ed and Chris are patient competent and it is a pleasure working with them.  I'll be calling them for a third round of electrical projects soon.

My master retreat and the hall way lost electricity flow.  I submitted the Yelp request and they responded promptly.  I told them I had to get it fixed urgently as that was where my work office was. They came in half hour, another 20 mijiutes diagnosis and found that the circuit breaker was burnt.  Replaced it and was done total 45 mins.  I would definitely use them again next time.  Charges were reasonable for the time and parts.
