I had the pleasure of working with Mike to install several smart outlets and connect those outlets to Hue light strips and also to Amazon Alexa.  Mike was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, courteous and helpful.  He showed up on time, went out of his way to go the extra step to locate a new switch since the one I bought was not compatible and to connect the new hardware to the wi-fi and to Alexa.   He took the time to understand what I was looking for and then gave me the various options to choose from.  He cleaned up when he was done and everything works as expected.   Mike was the third electrician I hired to do this same project.  I wish I would have found him first.   What was so difficult for the previous elections, was a snap for Mike!   I would hire him again for any electrical project and would highly recommend him to anyone who has need for an electrician.

Mike / Tri-Phase electric installed LED recessed lights for me on my bedrooms. They did an excellent job; their service was friendly, they completed the job on time and did a clean job overall. I recommend them to anyone who is interested in having latest LED lights installed in their homes.

We have used James and JCM Electric many times for our new electrical circuits, panel upgrades, and lighting packages.  James and his team are not only responsive but very professional and honest.  We continue to use them for all of our electrical needs.

We highly recommend Gary. We needed our recessed kitchen lights fixed and Gary was responsive and came the same day (there was a cancellation). He was punctual, polite, and wore a mask/shoe coverings. We were impressed at how fast he was able to troubleshoot the problem, install new lights and fix our wires (did the job in two hours). He even helped sweep the debris after. We will definitely hire him again if we need another electrical job done. Thank you Gary! We are so happy with our new LED kitchen lights!

Richard is the real MVP in electrician. He was very professional and knowledgeable. Just like everyone else on this page, I wish I could give more than 5 stars for his service. If you need someone that reliable and get the job done, better call Richard from Acero Electric.

Dmitry came and installed a 240 NEMA 14-50 Tesla charging receptacle at my house.  He is a real gentleman, honest, humble and professional. Does not overcharge and takes pride in his work.  He is my go to guy for all my electrical work.

Requested a 250v 50amp service line pulled. They were the best quote by $50.

Very friendly and fast. Nice work. However I realized I was so happy when they finished I paid them and realized I did not receive a receipt. Unfortunately they installed a 30amp outlet, which they replaced. The wire was only 8 gauge rather than 6 gauge. The breaker looked used but they claimed it was a new 50amp breaker and offered to change it with a 40amp breaker which I declined.

Installed a 14-50 NEMA plug. Great service, responsive and very professional. Got quotes from 3 different electricians, even TD was not the lowest bid we went with them. You get what you paid for.
Very satisfied.

We had an electrical issue in our kitchen that we needed with. Mickey came in and tactfully let me know the issue. He was very detailed and I was able to jot down his professional assessment. Great to know he works in our neighborhood and looking forward to working with him again!

I can't say enough great things about Hewlett. Our family has used them for years, and every time they wrap up I'm sad to see them go. Meigs and Alex not just the best electricians I've ever hired -- they're the best contractors I've ever worked with.

Our house is ancient, and the wiring is a mess, and Meigs went out of his way to walk me through every circuit in the house at the end of the job. He relabeled every breaker on our main and sub-panel. Our main panel's got some life left in it, but he's the type of person that says Here's what to watch for, and I really hope you don't have to call me to replace this, because replacing this would be super expensive.

We even have a mystery switch in our living room -- 20 years and nobody's been able to figure out what it does. Alex figured it out in about half an hour. Turns out there's a junction box that's buried in our ceiling.

I've called Hewlett before for an outlet that was giving me trouble, and Meigs called to give me a few ~$10 DIY suggestions to try on my own before hiring him to come out. Turns out one of his ideas worked perfectly.

Hewlett's prices are fair and transparent, and they bill based on the project -- not hourly. If there are any changes that need to be made once they've started on a task and discovered something unexpected, Meigs will make sure we talk through the issue before he moves forward. There are never any surprises when it comes time to write the check.

They set expectations for their schedule at the start and end of every day (if it's a multi-day project), and they always show up on time. One day on our last project, Meigs called to say that he hit traffic and was going to arrive ten minutes later than he told us he'd be. My family doesn't even do that.

They clean up after themselves very well. I think our house is cleaner when they leave for the day.

I've got a sweetheart of a dog, but he likes to bark at strangers until he has a chance to meet them. And so Meigs and his crew took a few minutes at the start of every day and a few again on their lunch to throw a frisbee for my little monster just to get him to settle down.

I never thought I'd say this about electricians, but I'm kind of bummed that they've run out of things to do at my house for the time being.

So long as I'm in the area and they're in business, they're the only electricians I'll ever use. If Hewlett is booked, I'll just wait until they're free.

Apollo electric is my only go to electrician!!
I'm a designer and Ted services ALL my lighting and electrical needs. I trust his work and his crew Whether for a clients home or for my own home. Ted knows his stuff. He's great with problem solving and Troubleshooting as well as new install and has a great eye for aesthetics in terms of lighting plans. Always always on time and finishes jobs in the time promised. That is very rare to find in this industry. He's also a preferred installer for Tesla!!! So if you need electric vehicle charge station set up or If you have ANY ELECTRICAL NEEDS, call Apollo!

Came on time, finished in 3 hours. Very easy communication, did a good job of installing recessed lighting, ceiling fan and other small things. They also cleaned up after doing the job.

Not sure if it something that could have been reduced or it's just the nature of the work, but they cut open many holes in dry wall, now I have to find somebody to fix those holes.

We had an emergency on a holiday(!) weekend when we lost power to our refrigerator and other kitchen appliances, and unable to reset from panel. Raphael came out on the holiday, within 2 hours, and assessed the problem. He offered a temporary solution, while explaining clearly & in detail that we needed a new upgraded panel so as not to have a repeat occurrence.  We are not the home's original owners and through the years work had apparently been done but not to the level needed for newer, high energy consumption appliances. Raphael & his crew arrived on time for the job, completed it as scheduled; work was tidy and clean.  Even the permitting inspector commented on the new panel!
Raphael's professionalism & experience showed; he was very responsive by phone/text/email.  We would not hesitate to use his services again, and would readily refer him and his crew.

Elvin helped to install an EV charger. His team also helped with securing city permits. I really appreciated Elvin's communication and responsiveness over SMS. I also think the pricing was very fair and I really liked that all my interaction was just with 1 person, whereas with other companies I had to deal with not just the contractors/technicians themselves but also salespeople, office managers, estimators, etc. which made things needlessly complex. I look forward to working with this company in the future.

Guy came to my house un screwed face plate screwed it back on out of line. He touched something and sparks started to fly, left ceiling fixtures hanging. Asked for and took $245 for no work completed(he was in a hurry to get to L.A. for the weekend) I had to ask for refund minus $75 visit fee.They never offered to return and complete the job and re attach fixtures to ceiling(they're still hanging). This company did not offer to complete the project. I would not recommend this company. Where can I find a full service, state certified and licensed electrician in Oakland with some design experience.............

After browsing a long list of Tesla charger installers, I ultimately chose Fruitdale Electric. Within days of my initial contact, they visited my home and provided a quote, which was much faster than I expected.

On installation day, their technicians arrived promptly. They installed a Tesla gen 3 charger, surge protection, and ran electrical wiring through my attic to the opposite side of the house. Despite the terrible weather at the time, they delivered flawless work.

The location of the charger was a challenge due to the tight space, and I had anticipated conduit running outside of my house. However, they exceeded my expectations and executed an incredibly clean installation with no visible wires or conduits, leaving just a Tesla charger on the wall exactly where I wanted it. Most importantly, my car now charges at a rate of over 40mph, a significant improvement from the previous rate of 4mph.

I am very happy with Jamil.  He was thoroughly, respectful and cleaned up once the work was done.  I would highly recommend him and plan to use him again.

Ed came out to my home to give me some ideas of how we could do the lighting in my outdoor living space and shortly after he got started on everything.

I had an idea of how everything was going to come out but I never thought it would come out looking this good.

Ed did such a great job with all of the wiring and lights. He was very detailed with all of his work and he made sure it was done perfectly.

He was very honest about what would be needed and he explained everything very well.

I have had Ed come by for multiple projects and I am very happy with all of his work. Highly recommended!

Jonathan was efficient and reasonably priced when installing my nema14-50 outlet. He got the job done in less than an hour from arrival to departure. I would recommend Jonathan for any future Tesla outlet installs.

I was thrilled they could get the job done so quickly and efficiently! They showed up on time in Covid protective gear and got right to work. When they were done they cleaned up and then showed me how to light the pilot and operate the thermostats. So happy to have heat again! I have a circulatory disease and was concerned that I would have to wait several cold weeks for an install date. Pacific Coast and I signed the contract on Friday and the heaters were installed on Monday! Now that's service!
