Best Electricians in San Francisco, CA

Great couple. Very professional, polite and worked as a team. I did not have a 10% off coupon from yelp but they gave me the discount anyway. Would recommend them!

I had used Half Moon Bay Electric may years ago to install a plug in my backyard for a hot tub. Bill came out to take care of the call. What a great guy! We joked and laughed the whole time! Charge was very reasonable.
So, when I had an old lamp that I thought I could rewire... (boy, was I wrong) and I had already pulled the old wire. Turns out it had tubing inside the stem that kept catching my new wire... needless to say, I became frustrated. So I took it in to Kristy at their shop on Main St. She told me it wouldn't be a problem and had it fixed for me later that afternoon. It works great! I'm very pleased.
I also wanted to mention how beautiful the shop was. So many amazing lamps and accessories. I always love how dressed up the window displays are, especially during the holiday season! Definite flair!
While I was there, I discussed new lighting for my kitchen. I told Kristy what styles I was interested in... she showed me a couple in the shop and then proceeded to show me many options and styles, she knew those catalogs like the back of her hand.  I was truely impressed! She explained pro and cons of certain styles. It was an extremely educational experience!  
I would truely recommend going to Kristy if you want to speak with someone with loads knowledge.

Great service. Their prices were very fair and the quality of work was excellent.  

I have recommended this company to all my friends.

I recently had the pleasure of having my apartment transformed into an entertainment paradise, all thanks to the amazing services provided by a company that truly understands the meaning of cutting-edge innovation. From replacing outdated rackets with Wi-Fi and wire-enabled ones to installing a mind-blowing projector and audio system, they have taken my living space to a whole new level of entertainment!

What impresses me the most about this company is their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction. They ensured that the installation process was smooth and hassle-free, handling everything from mounting the projector to strategically placing speakers for optimal audio coverage. The technicians were not only highly skilled but also friendly and professional, making the entire experience a joy from start to finish.

I must also mention the company's responsiveness and support. In the rare instance when I encountered a minor issue with connectivity, their customer service team was prompt and efficient in resolving it, going above and beyond to ensure my utmost satisfaction. It's refreshing to see a company that truly cares about its customers and stands behind its products and services.

Scott was very responsive, returning my call within an hour of placing a request through ServiceMagic.com. His son Noah and partner Chris turned up to do the work (fit 9 ceiling pendant and replace every outlet in the house) and they were fantastic. Very professional but also great guys and happy to have them in the house all day working. They stayed late into the evening to get the job done. Very pleased with the quality of work and highly recommend them.

Based on their rating and so much positive review, I hired them to to a few projects on my home. Between guys constantly being pulled off the job and no attention to detail, I was very bummed out. There was no patching of holes before they painted, paint was dripped on the front of out house more than 6 feet away from where they were painting, parts that should have been painted were not, the front of the house has  a big scrape mark, holes were drilled through the patio cover they installed, I had to argue about the fence they were installing not being per scope p, the gate they installed is sagging and doesn't open easily, we were charged and additional $2K to have lattice and post caps(about $300 in materials) for the top of the fence. We were quoted for 36 linear feet of fencing when only 25 was installed. I tried to speak to James who estimated the job and I was made to feel like an idiot for asking for a credit for the fencing and when I wanted to make sure the patio cover would not leak. Which it will because it was not installed correctly. My biggest disappointment was the fact that the I could not get someone to come back out to to walk through my concerns. When I have to correct the work of professionals that were definitely not cheap, not cool.

Thanks to James and his team for coming back out and fixing all of my concerns. I really appreciate you taking the time and walking through the project.

Brett and his team are amazing!

We contracted Lights Out to install recessed lighting 9 months ago, and everything turned out amazing. The entire team is courteous, professional, thorough, and attentive to detail.

With 20 years of experience, Brett is clearly passionate about lighting design. He provided a thoughtful lighting plan that optimized the lighting design for our space.

Brett also helped us through the city permitting with the city inspection to ensure our work is done according to code.

We really appreciate Brett for his work, and we highly recommend his company.

we had some significant electrical work that we had been putting off for some months because i dreaded having to look for an electrician. however, i realize now i should've contacted Ike's much sooner. it was easy to set up a consultation using their online form, and while we had to wait a few weeks for an appointment that would fit into our schedule, it was worth the wait. Isaias was on time, knowledgeable and patient with my many, many questions. he was also very responsive via email and was great at explaining different options. there was a lot of back and forth before my husband and i were able to decide on a final plan, and Isaias was very easy to communicate with throughout. when we received the final estimate, all labor and material costs were broken down rather specifically so there were no surprises. and when we had a few unexpected bumps in our project, Isaias was very quick to let us know what the additional cost would be.

Corey and Leonard were the primary electricians working on our project, and they were both great-- friendly, respectful, hard-working.

our project took longer than expected because of a family emergency with the crew at Ike's, and weather that prevented the completion of outdoor work. however, this is a minor issue because Isaias was great with communicating with us throughout the whole process, and we are extremely happy with the work that was done.

if you are looking for an electrician that is detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and communicative, look no further.

We had great success working with Phils Electric Co. The communication was quick straight from the initial Yelp project creation. Phil came the next day to review our old San Francisco 1957 home with a messed-up electric situation.
Phil is a very experienced engineer who has ideas and solutions for pretty much any problem you could have in your garage. He also knows the code and the local permit regulations well to offer the best strategy to finish the project quickly.
We had a non-trivial layout in the garage. Our water hose faucet was just 5 inches away from the panel. Phil and his partner Anthony were limited in the ways where the panel could be moved. So they offered a thinking out of the box solution to move the faucet away from the panel instead (it should be 36 away per code). Phil has plumbing skills as well and he quickly built a copper pipe extension and installed a new faucet in no time. As a result, our home was upgraded to have 125 amp service (new wire in the existing conduit), the proper grounding implemented (two 8 feet rods), the aux panel added for the future expansion, and the Tesla Wall Charger was installed. All this for less than two days.
As a homeowner who is curious about how things work and has the will to maintain my property, I was fascinated with Phil's wisdom and great experience. He gave me all the expertise on electrical, common risks, and general perspectives. So not only the work was done, but I feel confident that I can do some minor electrical improvements myself now as well.

This review should be taken with a grain of salt because I didn't have any actual electrical work done, but I had a phenomenally helpful phone call.  I'm looking at buying a house, but it needs some old electrical equipment replaced.  The seller tried to convince me it's going to cost $5000, but Allen (at Pierce Electric) gave me a lot of very helpful information and explained that to make the house safe from electrical fires will be much more expensive.  The one phone call I made to Pierce Electric may well have just saved me from $20,000 in expenses and months of legal battles after I bought my house.

Thanks!

Great experience with TEK. Khalif was exactly on time, very professional and knowledgeable. He got my project quoted and completed super fast and for a reasonable price. Will definitely use them for any future electrical needs!!

Arturo, was professional, arrived at the scheduled time, he was insightful and was able to diagnose, troubleshoot the wiring and install a new Enforcer access keypad for the entry system that was damaged from the recent storms. Very efficient, customer oriented, set expectations ahead of time and stayed with his original quote.

Highly Recommend.

John was referred to me by a neighbor in my complex as the electrician of choice for installing a electric vehicle charging station.  His entire process was easy and straightforward, and John kindly and sweetly accommodated my last minute plan change (turns out you shouldn't really surprise an electrician!).  He and his technician Sergei worked steadily and quickly to get the work done.  John handled the permit from start to finish.  And the price was very fair.  I highly recommend Hoffman Electric.

Yury is incredible.  He's the patron saint of odd, obscure, hard-to-fix lamps and light fixtures.  He fixes things that most people won't touch, he charges reasonable prices and he's SO nice!  There's simply no other lamp repair shop in San Francisco that even comes close!

Exceptional. Honorable. They arrived on time and stayed until the job was complete. Just wow!

My parents live out in Stinson Beach and it's very difficult to find good reliable contractors let alone electricians. Not only did ED electric schedule to come to my parents house on a day when I could be there to help my parents, but their electricians are so knowledgeable, quick, and they took time to teach my parents how to fix the problem if it happens again. We had excellent customer service from initially reaching out to them through yelp to completion and invoicing. I highly highly recommend them and will use them for any future work!!

Jesus has done a great job for us on several projects! He replaced a Zinsco sub-panel for a very reasonable price and also installed 2 hanging light fixtures, replaced a broken dimmer switch, and installed 2 ceiling fans (including one on high vaulted ceilings). He's very communicative, professional, punctual, and friendly.

Throughout my house, Victor and his crew replaced all electrical wiring and installed recessed lighting.  They also replaced my electrical panel, installed outdoor lights, and installed a fan in the bathroom.  At first, I was skeptical about trusting an electrician, who only had five reviews, especially for a job that I thought was large by my standards.  I am happy that I hired Victor and would hire him again for any size project.  The other reviews that I read about Victor are accurate.  I concur that he is punctual, thorough, good communicator, reasonably priced, knowledgeable, courteous, and professional.  I will just add that his work is done on schedule with no surprises.  Victor made several key suggestions for ways of improving my house, such as bringing an old fume hood up to code, and asking if I also may like a few lights the crawl space.  Thank you.

In the last year I've used several contractors/suppliers for updating various parts of a 1980s condo - painter, fence repair, window repair, HVAC repair, general contractor and electrician. Schulkamp Electric stood out far above the rest (except for good HVAC guy) for everything. With them we got the rare combination of excellent workmanship, organization, creativity, timeliness and price.
