Best Electricians in San Jose, CA

Sam is very honest in his work and pricing. He helped us look at our fridge outlet and install a new bathroom light/vent. Appreciate his flexibility and that he can help with a variety of issues that we are not familiar with!

Larry Strom from ELS Electric was referred to me thru my neighborhood watch app. I was having some issues with three of my light switches that I didn't want to tackle myself. I knew the job wouldn't be that challenging but still wanted to call in a professional. I called Larry on a Monday and he said he should be able to come out the next day! The next day he called to give me an accurate ETA. That worked out great because I was able to leave work and meet them instead of waiting around all day. When I pulled into my driveway, Larry and Dan were there waiting for me! Such wonderful customer service!  Turns out I bought the wrong light switch for my 3-way light so thank goodness Larry had the right switch in his truck. Larry and Dan are both professional, polite and very customer service oriented. I will definitely use them again for my electrical needs!

Arrived on time, very polite and helpful. Also patient to answer my dummy questions. Got the job done efficiently. Will definitely hire again

Needed a fan light fixture replaced and relied on Yelp to help me find a local electrician.  Fortunate to find that first try.  Mopia Electric proved reliable, trustworthy, efficient, reasonably priced licensed electrician.  They're knowledgeable, prompt and completely professional.  I will always call on them for electrical needs in the future.

I called Robert for help to troubleshoot a breaker circuit problem.  He was very responsive and communicated promptly and courteously.  

I would highly recommend Electric Chen.  It was a pleasure working with him and I will certainly call upon his services again in the future.

Asked Yelp to help me quote a few small projects I had and Antonio was one of the replies.   Very reasonable rate compared to others that quoted and he came the next day and fixed the two items in three hours. I will use him again for my next project.

Juan is great. He answered our call right away and came in the next day. He helped us get the 240v outlet for the new electric range. He is also so kind to help us with the range installation as well. We highly recommend him!

I highly recommend Dan and Bay Area Maintenance. We were having an issue with our Nest thermostat, a new wire needed to be installed. Dan called me back right away and actually came to the appointment early, when does that ever happen? He was very professional and explained exactly what he needed to do. He quickly installed the wire and fixed the issue. His prices are very reasonable as well.At the same time he noticed another unrelated problem with our doorbell. He tried to troubleshoot the problem for us. A few days later I called him to help fix the doorbell issue. He remembered the problem and said he really wanted to figure out the issue. He came out a few days later, again early!!! He installed new wires, but that didn't fix it, he kept troubleshooting until he got it fixed. He was here about an hour and did not charge us a cent for parts or labor!!! I was blown  away by his kindness. Again I highly recommend BAM. It is nice to see that there are still honest and hardworking people out there. I will definitely use this company again.

These guys are as good as it gets. Troy is the best. Saved my business!

Hancock was wonderful.  He called and was able to come to the appointment earlier than originally planned. He checked the outlets and told us why the circuit breaker kept popping every time we turned on our microwave.  Job cost less than expected. I'd use him again.

***UPDATE***
So a few months after I'd left the messages and wrote the 1-star review, Steve called me. He apologized and explained that he'd been dealing with some family issues. He had also let go one of the workers who had done my electrical. After making an appointment to come out the following week, I sent him my list of things that needed to be fixed, detailed in my original review.

As promised, Chris came out on Monday. He was on time--even early--friendly and courteous. Chris made some recommendations on how to fix some of the problems, did the work, and also saved the day with some quick thinking. He also changed out a motion detector switch to a regular one even though it was out of scope.

Steve himself came out and we smoothed things over. I was happy to have the work completed quickly and even talked to him about coming back to install a new light over my dining table.

Although I would have preferred the work had been done properly originally, Steve takes pride in his work and I know he felt bad that there had been issues.

I understand when family matters come up, and I told him as much. However, I do think he should have left an outgoing voice message explaining that he was taking time off and would not be returning calls for an extended amount of time.

I was actually about to hire another electrician to fix all the problems, so I would been pretty upset if I had done so only to have Steve contact me afterward.

***ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW***

My initial experience with Steve and John, who were recommended by my contractor, was good. However, I've now left two messages this year for Steve asking him to come back and fix small issues that came up within weeks of my moving back into my remodeled home: canned light went out, dimmer makes a buzzing noise, smoke alarm fell off my master bedroom ceiling. And the big one: fans in both baths come on when heat/air does and not necessarily when they should. I.e., when I'm showering and the bathroom steams up.

I'm sure all of these problems are easy to fix, so I'm frustrated that I've left two very polite messages (one on Steve's cell phone; one at the shop) and still haven't received a call back in over two weeks. I spent more than $10k with Southwest and thought Steve and John were very professional and helpful during the remodel. I think it's very unprofessional now for Steve to not follow up on these issues that I've documented through date-stamped photos.

I think it's interesting that the majority of these 5-star reviews for Southwest are from people who don't write many reviews. This can be a sign of business owners asking for favorable reviews in return for providing a discount. If you're researching electricians or any other businesses on Yelp, I recommend doing your homework. Just because the business has 5-star reviews does not mean they truly are a 5-star business.

I contacted Bellows Soquel to replace my aging Lennox Pulse and Lennox air conditioner, as well as the ducting in my crawlspace and attic. Everyone from Carl the initial salesman to Russel the project manager to the office staff was friendly, professional and willing to answer the many questions I had. Mikey, the install manager was an outstanding leader of his crew, including Brian, Jamie, Alvie and Rudy.  All of them were efficient and hard working professionals.  My new Lennox system is up and running.  I'm amazed at how they were able to tackle a complicated job and perform at such a high level.  They left my garage and home looking like they'd never been here. Everything is carefully and precisely installed. I'd give each of them ten stars if I could.  All of my questions were thoughtfully and thoroughly explained.  Bellows is a top notch company and you won't go wrong by choosing them.  One happy customer here.

Called Jason a few weeks ago and he replied immediately. we agreed upon a time for him to come over and address some light switch and bulb issues. He was on time, did the job very quickly and professionally and charged me a very reasonable rate. He was great with my dog too which is a big plus :-) . I will call Oak Electric again as Jason is a super nice guy and did a great job for me.

Alfredo did an amazing job replacing our pool disconnect. He was clean, courteous and handsome. Job was priced fairly and we are so so happy.

Second time I have used them and was very pleased each time. From the text and emails about them being on the way to the real time tracking of the truck as it travels to me, this only matched the experience with the electrician.
Tim arrived on time, used Covid precautions and shoe covers. Tim was efficient and informed me of what he was doing as he went. Very professional.  Could not be more pleased.

Brian asked all the right questions and provided a quick and reasonable quote to install my EVHome charger.  He was available as soon as my charger arrived and installed it professionally, quickly and cleanly.  I work with a lot of contractors in my business and Brian from BHE Electronics is a 5 star pro. I will be recommending him to my design clients as well!

Great Electrician!  

After getting few bids, I decided to try this company after I saw a review for a Eichler panel upgrade.   Pricing was fair than most of the other bids I got.  

Job schedule was flexible and they were able to upgrade my Eichler panel to 200amp at the same location where the old panel was with minimum downtime.   (No overnight without power). The job was clean and passed inspection on the first time.   (^_^)

If you are looking to get your Eichler power panel upgraded, make sure you talk to these guys!

Francisco sent his crew back to retest the system, found out that the micro inverters were the issue. Since they are still under warranty  the manufacturer will replace all 24 micro inverters for me. It will take 2-4 weeks for them to ship. But for now I have 3 new inverters working that Francisco was kind enough to let me use it while waiting for the replacement.

AVOID AT ALL COST! What a joke. This owner shows up in sandals, doesn't have the right tools and has to borrow mine. He did a hack job in my garage. I needed an outlet installed with a switch. He hacked my dry wall, buried the electrical lines in the drywall and filled it in with joint compound! I'm not an electrician, but that does not seem
Up to code? WTH. I wasted $350 and will have to pay a real electrician to come back and unscrew the work that this idiot did. His van doesn't now have a contractor license number either! I can only blame myself for even letting this guy do the work.
