Look no further for your local electrician! Ricky is professional, punctual and an all round great person. He responds quickly, shows up and gets to work. And, he cleans up everything before he leaves. Our family electrician retired some years ago and I am so thankful to have found Ricky. I can't recommend him enough.

I manage two rental houses with several apartments and have an old house myself - always needing an electrician for something. The one-man operation of Fearghal McEleney aka Eleney Electric is superb: on time, knows his stuff, reasonable priced, an intelligent and friendly guy who goes the extra mile to make customers happy.

I have used his expertise for a few years now and just sent him over to see new tenants to fix a faulty switch. I came by later to check with the tenant and she could not stop telling me how great he was - not only did he fix the switch, he figured out what was wrong with the downstairs track lighting (and fixed it), and then showed the new tenant how to use the front door lock system. Thank you Fearghal for making my life easier and my tenants happy with me! Oh, and thank you for fixing the things too.

When I think of Jothi and James from Redwood Electric, I honestly get teary-eyed.  In the middle of a train wreck of a kitchen renovation (due to our handyman/contractor, not Redwood), Jothi was the ONLY good decision we made for a while.  He was incredibly fair in his bid and returned my calls right away. When it came time to actually do the work, Jothi was great about setting up times, showing up ON TIME, and busting his bum off to get the work done.  James--his assistant--is clearly just as knowledgable and worked so, so hard.

When each part of our first inspection failed EXCEPT the electrical, I about kissed Jothi and James' feet.  And from there, they have continued to handle every issue that came our way, worked well with the variety of people we had on board to fix all the other issues our renovation faced, and did so SO calmly and professionally.  Their work was impeccable, they were 100% honest, and seriously caring towards me and my kids.  

Two quick stories to solidify Redwood Electric's greatness: all the original gas plumbing we had done had to be replaced because it wasn't done correctly.  Our (new) contractor told us that it was a VERY good thing we had hired such a good electrician because if there had been any sparks in our home then it would have exploded.  Seriously.  I was so relieved to know that our electrician had our back and everything was done right and safely.

Second story: at one point during the nightmare, we came home to no heat or hot water, without forewarning from our first contractor/handyman.  When Jothi heard about that the next day, after a whole day's work he insisted on sticking around to make sure our heat was indeed working so we didn't have to bundle our children up in sleeping bags and blankets like we had the night before.  It wasn't even CLOSE to his fault that that situation had happened; but he cared about our well-being and showed us the human decency we didn't get from others to ensure we were OK.

We still have to finish our renovation so the job isn't complete quite yet (it's up to my husband and I now); but I can say with complete ease that I KNOW Redwood Electric was the best decision we made and I will use them each and every time anything else arises.

Brookline Electric was on time and went above and beyond my expectations when my electric baseboard was not working and repaired a bad junction box where the thermostat was installed. I will definitely use John again on any future projects.

Excellent service and prompt. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good electrician who knows his stuff and doesn't mind working on the weekend to get the job done.

I requested a comprehensive quote, parts and work, for a given task. I received a paper saying : the job will be done for X dollars. It was not the cheapest quote, but it was the only quote that was not trying to leave room for charging me extra afterewards. I called to schedule, everything was done on time and professionally, and I wrote a check for the exact amount as agreed. This is the kind of contractor that is hard to find in the Bay area. Ms. Valencia did an extremely good job.

Super responsive!
Diagnosed the issue within minutes!
Super competitive pricing !
My electrician from now onwards for any of my electrical needs!

We randomly lost power in part of our house a few nights ago after hearing a weird zapping noise (never a good feeling, especially as a new homeowner). We called Wayne the next day and he was here within a few hours to assess the situation. He set us up with a temporary fix and, while not being pushy or overly salesy, advised us that we would need further work because the issue was a pretty significant safety concern. We trusted him and scheduled the bigger job, which was today. We were told the job would take 8 hours so we prepared to have no power all day. Two men came to do the work and were on time and extremely cordial and professional. The job got done in about 5 hours and we are extremely pleased with their work. Everything is working perfectly now - they installed a new electrical panel which looks amazing. Wayne also was super flexible with payment and offered us a payment plan which was extremely appreciated. Would a million percent recommend this company and we will definitely use them again for any electrical needs! Thanks so much guys!

Highly recommend. They came out first gave us quote. We decided to use them and they did all the work they quoted quickly and professionally and the bill came in under their quote. Both Mario and Jessie were awesome. I'm very happy with their work and I can now use my dryer, all my lighting in house work. I'm a happy customer.

Spectacular craftsmanship and Rob nails the stylistic aspects of the shades as well. I love the lamp shade he did for me, it's a center piece in my home. He did a better job on my lamp shade than I even thought possible.

This is the place to go if you want a 20th century style lamp for your home or office. With Rob you get excellent customer service and superb work. There is no other like him around. Highly recommend Meteor Lights!

I called Rick based on these review.  He was fantastic.  Despite a busy schedule he turned up within the hour and resolved the issue speedily, painlessly and in a cost efficient manner.  I was very grateful and will be relying on his services in the future.

I had Estiben do a few electrical jobs, and he was fantastic.  Upfront on pricing, and knowledgeable as an electrician.  He not only fixed them but told me what was wrong.  I will not hesitate to use him again.  Very satisfied, and as one of the fixes was to a furnace disconnect outlet that controlled my AC, also very cool now.  Great job Estiben!

What a sigh of relief! Great customer service with a construction company? Such is unheard of!

A little back story: I had a few problems in my house since before Covid, and unfortunately the HOA of my community would not take care of them! They would say that it wasn't covered by the warranty or it was done by the previous owner etc. I am not the most handy or technologically advanced person in this world, so it was time to call an electrician.  

I searched far and wide for electricians, and the most responsive and professional was fitch electric; it was as if they wanted our business without us being a burden to them. The other electricians I reached out to were either incredibly unresponsive, or incredibly unprofessional. Fitch Electric replied, gave us a quote, and fixed all the electrical problems within a 4 day span!

We highly recommend Fitch Electric for all your electrical needs in the Bay Area!

Exceptional customer service. We originally called out another contractor who cancelled on us last minute. Luckily Jaime was able to be at our house in under an hour to fix our outdoor electrical outlet. Even though it wasn't the outlet I thought it was over the phone (washing machine as opposed to regular), he only charged me a little more. Breaker work also needed to be done and he was able to do that lickity split. Easy to pay as he accepted both cash and zelle. He even replaced the unit with one that was much much nicer. I felt very good with this service and would highly recommend it.

We called Service Champions to take advantage of the A/C tune-up special the company was offering to examine our air conditioner.  Dan, the technician, arrived promptly, serviced the unit and replaced a couple parts that needed attention after some testing and listening to my experiences with the system.  I feel way more confident now going into the warmer weather knowing I now have a reliable system for the family. Dan also helped schedule someone to come out and take a further look and give recommendations for a length of ventilation piping under the kitchen to improve cooling in that sector of the house.
I recommend this professional technician and the reliable and dependable company that stands behind him.   Mike K  Fair Oaks

Tim was easy to communicate with and promptly responded to my RFQ. They were even able to provide electrical services earlier than expected. The two men who arrived at my apartment were courteous, professional, and completed the job to satisfaction. I would certainly retain Tim's services again. 10/10

I contacted Reyff for a list of improvements and repairs. From the simple receptacle rewire, and new wall sconces installed to the more involved new service for the garage and a new whole house fan in the attic. The workers were clean and meticulous and always available to discuss options when questions came up. Kudos also to their front office who seemed to know exactly who we were when we called. The work turned out perfect and the cost was reasonable. I already plan to have them back in the future for other jobs.

Micah was very helpful and explained the different types of options for improvements of electrical wiring in an apartment building.
He is very responsive and I recommend MJS Electric Company!

I worked with Gareth through my contractor on a remodel for my place during 2021-2022. I was satisfied with the quality of the work him and his team did.

A little more than a year afterwards, I was having trouble with a pair of outlets in my kitchen, and one in my garage stopped working. I called to ask them to come check them out. The garage was a dumb mistake on my part - it was one of the ones with a switch on the outlet itself that had flipped, so that was just a matter of pushing the button. The kitchen outlets we weren't able to reproduce the issue, but he gave me an estimate of a few hours of work to change out those outlets for the types with switches.

I was really surprised to be hit with a $260 bill for this short visit of less than 10 minutes where no work was done besides pushing a button and giving me a rough estimate. I am sensitive to not wasting the time of his team, and understand why companies charge a service fee for home visits. I was just really surprised by the amount of the charge, especially given the existing relationship, and that this was pertaining to work his team had installed.

I asked if this charge would be credited towards the work that was estimated, and he said he would give me a 15% discount on it rather than a credit (which would amount to far less money given only a couple hours of work). I asked if he would forgive the amount given the prospect of maintaining the business relationship but he said only if we do work within the next month. I paid the bill and let him know we wouldn't be doing business again.
