Best Electricians in San Jose, CA

I put out a request on Yelp in the morning and Sam came by in less than an hour to complete the task. A few hours after he had left, I had another job for him and he came back within the hour (twice in a day) to finish this second task. I would recommend him if you have any projects that you need help with around the house.

I found Larry to be knowledgeable, engaging, and thorough. Larry responded very quickly (on a weekend) to my needs and was very courteous and respectful. I would certainly recommend Larry for your electrical needs.

I am extremely happy with Fitch Electric! Fast, professional service! My technicians David and Levi took great care to get our generator installed without much disruption to my family. All the work looks great, very clean lines. Would gladly recommend this company to a family or close friend.

I called them to see what he would charge
to come to my house and install a GFCI
breaker in the sub panel as when we installed
it, it would not work, keep in mind this call was on
a Sunday afternoon and Randy answered on the
third ring another thing is I have never done business
with them.
Rather than come over during the week and charge me
God knows what, Randy took the time to explain that what
I needed was a GFCI plug, not a breaker, he gave me
detailed instructions on the install of the wiring to the plug.
You can bet that in the future when and if I need
electrical work done, he will be the guy I call.
 THANK YOU RANDY

Robert provides really good service.  Everything he did was really good.  Highly recommended.

I am very happy with Antonio's work on our opened drywall ceiling. The final outcome is what I wanted. It is hard to imagine there was any opening there at all. He  closed it, matched the texture, went same evening to  a store and bought some paint.  He was going back and forth to his car for tools and never forgot to wear shoe protectors. He fixed the light that was not working too. It was ultra easy to hire him. I think I got lucky on one of those crazy rainy days. He responded to my message very quickly and was at my place fixing the ceiling in like 1.5 hours. Wow. I was trying to hire the drywall guy here at yelp for a week going back and forth through his manager and I hired Antonio in a blink of an eye. The bonus: he charges very reasonably. I liked his attitude and demeanor as well. I cannot thank Antonio enough and plan to hire him for more projects around my house.

I contracted Peralta Electric to upgrade my electrical panel from 100 Amps to 200 Amps, to run power to a workshop that I'm building in the backyard, and install a generator hook-up and sub-panel by the main electrical panel.  He got all of that accomplished on time and on budget.  He also took care of all the permit work and the PG&E scheduling.  When I asked him to do a few other small tasks, like installing a ground rod and an additional outdoor outlet, he said, No problem!  If I have any other electrical work that needs to be done in the future, he will be my first call.

Daniel was very prompt in replying to my questions and scheduling the appointment for installing the nema 14-50 outlet. He came over the same day I contacted him, gave an estimate and was flexible in scheduling the appointment based upon my schedule. His quote was also reasonable compare to the others and was very thorough with his task.

I am a partner in a residential HVAC company and have been sharing referrals and projects for several years now, and Got Watts? continues to set the bar for all the Trades, not just electrical and solar.
Their planning & logistics are absolutely second to none, and their value for long term relationships with not only fellow vendors but entities like PG&E  and local building inspectors benefit their clientele immensely, often far more than they ever realize. All the homeowner knows is that the work was done on time & budget, and beyond professionally; they have a mobile detail service keeping their trucks spotless, even while on job sites. Meanwhile we see other folks wait all summer for the new air conditioning system that we installed [in spring], because their electrician made promises they could not keep.
Got Watts? Electric & Solar is the only local specialist to use, from town homes to Eichlers they know and love the area, and they're here to stay. One contractor whose constant motivation to excel deserves more stars!

Hancock from Den Electric came over to install an outlet in my garage so I can charge my Electric Vehicle.

Upon initially reaching out, he was immediately communicative. He answered every one of my upfront questions thoroughly, quoted a price range over Yelp Chat, shared his license number (so I could look it up), and was forthcoming about his schedule. Due to his responsiveness, articulateness, honesty, price, and availability, I made the decision to hire him.

When he came out to do the work (on time), he was quick doing it. He explained what he was doing while he was doing it, too.

Also seemed like a nice guy -- easy to get along with and talk to. Didn't seem to mind me glaring at him from the other side of the garage.

He accepted payment over Venmo. I paid him after I verified his work was functioning as promised.

It's now been a week and everything is still working just fine.

***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.

We had a new AC system installed in June last year. For some reason, it was interrupting our furnace system and shutting down the power. After several visits over six months, Jeff was finally able to fix it. Turns out, our furnace filter was restricting air flow and causing the problem.  We really appreciate the time and effort it took to diagnose and remedy the problem. Thank you everyone who helped, from the lovely people in dispatch being patient with me and the team that came to help us out! We highly recommend Bellows for any and all of your projects! Wonderful people to work with!

Jason provided amazing service and educated me on proper electric code. He and his team were very professional and quick. I'd recommend Jason and his team to anyone.

I highly recommend JMC Electric! I had a hard time finding a qualified electrician that does quality work. I interviewed  and received quotes from at least 6. Those that I didn't use were are questionable and flaky. Alfredo from JMC Electric came to my house to do electrical work for a hot tub. He was on time and got the job done when he said it was going to be done. They were kind and answered all questions I had and were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them.

I have had these guys out before to install chandeliers and they did a great job so when we had a power outage yesterday in my husband's office I knew who to call. Gilbert came out with his apprentice Judah the next morning and searched for the problem. There were lots of options for what could have gone wrong and my husband had done a lot of the testing. Gilbert found a lose connection in a hidden Junction box and was able to get it fixed in no time. Power is back on. Yeah! Thank you Five or Free. You are awesome!

Brian is probably the most knowledgeable electrician that I've ever talked to.  He was able to identify an old style breaker box so I can pass the inspection.  I will definitely use his service in the future.

We used Clever Electric to install a new sub panel and grounding conductor for our 50 years old rental.  This was the second time we use them.  Our experience with them both times were very pleasant.  My, the owner, was very reliable and professional.  The rates were reasonable.  We would definitely use them again.

I highly recommend Zurc Power Solutions for all your solar needs. Francisco is very knowledgeable and can easily explain the intricacies of going solar. They installed our system 3 years ago and have kept in touch by monitoring our system to make sure everything is working properly.  I've referred him to friends and they are all very happy with their systems. Best of all, in this heat we can keep our house cool and we actually got money back at the end of the year.  It's easy to do. Just call Zurc Power Solutions and get your solar installed today.

Wow- finally a dependable (and available) electrician!!  

I was referred to LAM- we had a great experience with owner and crew.  There were several electrical fixes around the house that weren't substantial enough to get interest from other electricians.  Called LAM, got owner to come out next day and start work following day.

Crew cleaned up after themselves and got done after two visits with positive results- everything works great and price was extremely reasonable!  I've already referred Mr. Binh to several folks- I will definitely use him again!
