Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

Mike is an outstanding electrician.  He was extremely courteous on the phone, was able to provide a very fair quote on the phone and agreed to come next day, which was on the weekend.  He was able solve our light switch problem, and we are very happy with the speed and price.  We highly recommend Mike and DV Electric for all of all electrician needs!

Mike literally saved me hundreds today for a ballast wiring lol. He's super helpful and courtesy and even it was a very simple problem , he took the time to explain lol. No one else on yelp did. Will definitely hire him for more complicated electrical problem in the future

James called when he said he would, showed up on time and did everything right - he was very considerate and explained everything in detail. Won't hesitate to contact him again in the future.

Highly recommended. Gary helped with an electrical issue affecting our electric gate. He was on time, super friendly, and efficient. Looking forward to work with Gary again.

The best electrician ever!!!! Called Richard and he was not too far away from the house.
He arrived within 15 minutes and fixed everything. He also took the time to explain to the landlord the operation of the blown switches and fuses. He also tells pretty funny jokes at no extra charge.

Dmitry helped me convert my garage into a shop.  Dmitry and his team installed a subpanel, additional 120 and 240VAC outlets and recessed lighting.  Dmitry is excellent at communication and provided a very competitive quote.  Him and his crew were prompt, organized and provided a high level of workmanship.  I'm very pleased with the way the garage turned out.

I used Brother electric to replace a broken exhaust fan in the bath room at my rental. I requested quotes from Yelp for this. Got a prompt quote from Brayan including  much the whole job would cost me while others were either giving quotes for diagnosis or what the hourly rate would be. Once the appointment was confirmed Brayan completed the job well. He bought the new fan himself and installed at my rental. I didn't have to do much. All in all it was a very good experience.

I recently bought a Generator for emergencies and needed to upgrade my old Sub-Panel with a new one with an interlock kit to accommodate this new addition. All of Dinh's employees I worked with have been professional and advised me on each step of their installation. When it was time for the City of Pleasanton inspection to approve their work, they were there on time to stand-by while the inspection was completed. I enjoyed working with Dinh, the owner, who was always available to answer any questions I may have asked. Also , I was not oversold on additional costs associated with parts not really needed. His quoted prices were also very reasonable compared to other quotes I received by other companies. I would hire this company again for any electrical needs.

Mickey and his crew did a fantastic job at my house, troubleshooting some lights, installing some new ones and installing Smappee, a new energy monitoring solution. Everything was professional and the job done was outstanding. I highly recommend Coastwide Electric.

Work: Running cables along the attic and through walls to new rooms.

First off, the entire crew is extremely friendly, respectful, and helpful.  Not only are they pleasant to deal with, but they are all efficient, punctual, professional, and willing to explain in detail the work they are doing.  On top of it all, their pricing is very fair (had a few estimates before choosing Hewlett) and they will recommend the best options to you (whether it brings them business or not, at least in my dealings with them).

My experience was a bit unique as I had them come out twice to run the cables into rooms that previously had no outlets, through the attic.  The first time they came out and ran the wires cleanly with no hitch. They finished in less then a few hours even though the work was fairly extensive through a small attic and inbetween different walls.  But I asked them to use an old wire that I had to save some money, since long wires can be expensive (huge mistake).  We tested the televisions and everything worked fine before they left.

Within a couple days, I was having some issues with internet.  I had Comcast come out and test the wiring in multiple places and found that the cable I had provided could not handle the bandwidth high speed internet needed (felt pretty stupid at this point). I called up Meigs and asked for his advice and how much it would cost to re-run the wire.  He gave me the options and told me he would re-run the wire for FREE!!!

They came out again within a few days and re-ran the wire within an hour, again cleanly and without any issues.  We tested everything a bit more thoroughly this time and found no issues.  Now everything works great, and I couldn't be more happy.  I highly recommend Hewlett Electric if you are looking for a fair, professional electrician you can trust.  At the very least, they will give you great advice!

Ted installed a NEMA 14-50 outlet for us. Fantastic experience

Pretty black and white on the shoes in the house, either it happened or it didn't and you were in such a rush to use the bathroom (again, because you were almost half an hour LATE) that you just walked right in like it's your own house. I managed a 22-unit apartment building for 3 years in Los Angeles and not one service call ever required me to tell the technician to take off their shoes in my tenant's units. I'd almost assume it's even standard customer service if the Comcast guys even do it.

Now let's Fast Forward into your excuses...

I didn't think this was possible, but agreed to come out to take a look - because YOU dont do the work, you sent a pair of beginners who couldn't even put a light switch back in correctly. I think that's fair for the public to know, you seem to play yourself up as this expert but when push comes to shove who is actually doing the work? If something was to go wrong, it is at the liability of your customers for you to actually make a service call?

While we did accidentally install a switch upside down - Was this not something that was at the fault of your employees? Shouldn't have happened to begin with. The work was done incorrectly, regardless of whether it was dropping a new wire or if it was something as simple as putting back a light switch.

I called prior to my arrival and left a voicemail with my eta. When I arrived, I found nobody to be home. I called again and left a message - Wife checked her voicemail, nothing.

I arrived at 7:40 (10 minutes after our appointment window) - how about you try another 10 minutes after that? Or if you want to get specific, how about specifically 22 minutes after our window at 7:52? Want the screenshot from my phone call history? Is that closer to 7:30 or 8?

I came out of the bathroom and removed my shoes - What happened to removing your shoes UPON ENTRY? Did you even think to ask once? Instead you stood around after you came out and I had to say something?

For a job that cost as much as ours did, some customer sensitivity training probably would have been nice when this entire situation could have been avoided if you knew what work as actually done, or even simply came to check on the job when your junior guys finished the work. If a light switch is put back upside down, then that was put back incorrectly.

I contacted Raphael through Yelp and he responded quickly. He came out and replaced all the exterior lights around my house. He was very professional and did an excellent job.

Since then, I've had him come out and do several more jobs. He's always been very responsive and his work is top notch.

I recently asked if he could install dimmable ceiling lights for a picture we had ordered. He had great recommendations and had our lights ready to go when our picture arrived.

Once in a while, you find a company that exceeds your expectations. Raphael is my first call whenever I need help from an electrician.

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.

I work as property manager for a company and those days I was in San Jose, Oscar is a detailed, experienced and reliable technician. On the day of the quotation, I showed him several areas where we had no power. He immediately inspected the fusebox). He explained how a fuse might look operational but actually be faulty. It took him some time to remove the cover and test all the fuses. Eventually, he identified and corrected the problem. Suddenly, we had power in those rooms! And we hadn't even agreed to hire him yet! I had some creative lighting / electrical projects and Oscar completed them with much intelligence and patience. He and his assistant Miguel were polite, clean, and efficient.

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 got my bidet installed through them. They were quick and reliable. Even though they did not have timeslot available they were able to make it between appointments. The handyman also removed their shoes before stepping into the household. Definitely recommend them. They also gave the lowest price estimate.

This is the second time I have used Ed for a project and I'm happy to use him again.  I had Ed install my Tesla charger, install a new outside outlet, and fix an bad outlet.  Prices are reasonable and his communication and punctuality is spot on.

Contacted Right Away Electric (Jonathan) to get a quote on adding 2 to 3 new electrical lines for a master bath renovation.  He responded to my request for a quote promptly and was able to get out the same morning to see the work site.  Meeting him went very well - he was prompt, courteous, professional, honest, and gave me a good idea what the work would entail.  By that afternoon, I had his quote in hand and gave him the green light go go ahead.  He was flexible with the start date (I moved it out from a Monday to a Tuesday and he accommodated with no problem).  Tuesday morning came around and he was early to start at the agreed time (great!).  Working efficiently, he did the job as discussed and even went ahead and helped wire one of the lines to be optionally 240V - something I had thought about but wasn't fully sure.  With his expert help, I can now run 120V or 240V depending on my future needs.  Very satisfied with his work, his diligence, attention to detail, responsiveness, and courteous demeanor.  I wish Jonathan all the luck in growing his business and look forward to calling upon him again in the future.  Thanks!

Jeremy, Richie and Christian were the techs who worked on our home. After a home purchase and long remodel, we needed a very thorough duct and furnace cleaning. The team responded for a quote and were out on site in a couple days. The pricing was a little more than we expected, but the service and follow through was very good. Everyone we worked with was super knowledgeable and available to answer any questions we had. The work was done in one day and they cleaned up everything afterwards. The system works like a champ and the fresh scent is a nice bonus. Thank you, Jeremy and team!
