Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

***AMAZING TEAM and would HIGHLY recommend to friends & family!!***

Scope of work:
- Install 12 recessed lights (6 in the living room, 6 in the family room)
- Update power switches to remove 'switch' functionality
- Install a power outlet in the bathroom near a bidet(hate running an extension cord to power)
- Install a new ceiling fan in one bedroom

Timeline:
12/13 @ 1PM: Estimate Request went out to several contractors
12/13 @ 3PM: Gustavo(Owner) was in my house for an estimate
12/15 @ 8AM: Work Starts
12/16 @ 5PM: Work Ends

Communication:
Excellent communication throughout the entire project. Corresponded via Yelp, Text, Email and over the phone. Gustavo's understanding of the work/scope was on point and he was able to give ideas on how he'd execute the work for the project.

Pricing:
After receiving several free estimates from other electricians GNH's pricing was very competitive and fair.

Professionalism:
Extremely professional and is very thorough with his work. Gustavo's YEARS of experience really shined through during the estimate walkthrough. It was VERY evident that he knew what he was doing and CLEARLY understood my asks. Always showed up prompt and on time for the work. Wore shoe coverings every time while walking on the carpet.

Execution of Project:
Gustavo and his team were AMAZING. In the event decisions were needed, Gustavo did an excellent job looping me in on the details and his recommendations. On the day of the project, I gave him a curve ball and asked him to install 2 more recessed lights and he took on the new scope with a smile. The end product of the project was GREAT! The effort and detail that Gustavo and his team put into my home was outstanding. My new recessed lighting and updated electrical makes my house feel BRAND new!

Conclusion:
One of the best contractors I've worked with! I have Gustavo's contact details saved and ready to be leveraged for future projects. I've already started to brag about his EXCELLENT work to my friends and family! Personally I'm looking forward to continuing to leverage GNH's services for many years to come.

Requested service again from Tari for a problem which was pretty tough to figure. A dull/subtle burning smell was coming from washer/dryer socket but I couldn't figure why/how. Even had a trip from fire department and we assumed it was due to EV charger. However, that was not the case and requested Tari to visit again and he discovered a lose wire within washer/dryer socket which was causing this burning smell along with heating up of the wall as well. He was able to quickly fix/rectify the situation and the problem was/is solved. While this was done almost 1 month ago in May, I wanted to wait for 3-4 weeks to ensure the problem was not recurring and truly fixed before posting this update.

Recommended and would call him again for future needs.

Roman did an excellent job for us. We originally hired him to rewire a faulty circuit, but he was able to find the fault and fix it, saving us several hours of work and several hundred dollars of expense. We highly recommend Roman for his responsiveness, sensitivity to his customer's time and budget, and workmanship.

I had some outlets and lights that were not working at my rental and I called Rick.  After he came out to assess the problem, he clearly discussed a path forward so I understood what to expect - both in time and money.  I was impressed with how thorough and fair he was.  I had a similar issue in my home and called Rick.  Again, he discussed what he would be doing and the expected costs up front.  He fixed the issue both times within the minimum time.  He will even try to talk you through a fix on the phone so he's definitely not out to gouge anyone.  Very refreshing.

Worst experience I ever had. They claim there's no charge for them to come out, but when they get there, they will charge you $479 for a consultation and diagnostic fee. It's true, you have a choice to either agree or not to their consultation fee, and in desperation, I agreed since they were already at my home at that point (but never again). That's just the first red flag. At least other companies are upfront about their charges. For example, when you call in, most companies will say it will cost you X dollars for us to come out during emergency hours or you can wait and it will cost you nothing.... Secondly, they say they will email you a full report, which they never did; instead, they sent pictures through text with no detailed report, and proceeded to quote you thousands of dollars. They quoted me a  $7K-$9K range. I had multiple certified & licensed electrian come by and none of which charged a consultation fee, and it cost a fraction of what Dalcon quoted. To share how drastic of the quote difference ... the final costs with another company ended up being $850 (inclusive of rewiring)  compared to what Dalcon quoted me. Whoever reads this review can decide for themselves, but I will never work with this company again. I hope others don't fall into their trap.

Andrew was amazing he was on time, polite, knowledgeable, and quick he was able to replace my old water heater quickly at a reasonable price would highly recommend Andrew and his crew

Found them on ServiceMagic. He did a whole house fan with product recommendations I found helpful, put in arbor lights with wiring and switches, fixed a couple of problem plugs and wirings, and gave me a couple of plugs and switches in attics and crawlspaces. He gave me a couple of additional minor items to add to the list that really made things like my attic light more useable and didn't add much to the bill. He came on time, knew what he was doing, had good recommendations for the work items, and left things neat when he was done. I had no worries about leaving him alone in the house. He goes in my book for my electrician of need. My complaints really are for me - I wish I had researched the arbor lights a bit more so I had a better idea of style and size. His are functional and well installed, but I would have paid for fancier. Net - even with a great service provider you need to know what you want done.
Used again to update house from 100 AMP to 200, fix doorbell, put in lights in and outside garage. He patiently worked through the PG&E process and delays, did another professional job for a reasonable price. Explains why he's the electrician I call for anything.

Knowledgeable and detail oriented approach provided. Needed upgrades to the electric panel to accommodate the switch from a gas to electric water heater. The team was able to diagnose the issue, fully communicate the available options, and help create a plan to address the situation. The team is RESPONSIVE and will definitely use them AGAIN. I highly recommend them.

We had several unrelated electrical problems including malfunctioning sprinklers and humidifier, and a leaky outside faucet. Jeff performed outstanding work on all items including troubleshooting. He was on time, courteous and professional. His previous managerial experience does show through. We'll contact ASHS again for future handiwork.

We worked with Emanuel to update our old 40A(!) service panel to a new 200A panel, to replace all the old knob and tube wiring in the house, and to fix some amateurish sub-panel work performed by previous owners.

Of all the electricians I contacted for this job, he's the only one who actually seemed interested in doing this job. His price seemed reasonable, and he was always straightforward and informative about the work he would need to do.

The entire process took over a month because we needed to get permits and to coordinate with PG&E to run new 220V overhead service wires to the house, but throughout Emanuel was always easy to reach and quick to respond to texts and voicemails, even when he was busy with other projects.

He and his assistant finished the interior work quickly and with a minimum amount of mess. He even installed extra GFCI breakers for when we update our kitchen in the future. Overall, a very good experience.

I recently purchased a hot tub and needed an outlet for it outside. Henry's crew came and did the work. I also had them upgrade the electrical sub panel. They were friendly, courteous and knowledgeable.  I was very happy with the service. Definitely would use them for any other electrical work.

Fred did a great job of putting up shelves and making repairs around my house. He seemed very detail-oriented, which is what you want while fixing your home! Being warm and friendly, he put me at ease as he went about doing various repairs, and offered advice on maintenance. I will certainly be calling him again if my house needs more work. Highly recommend!

David is wonderful to work with. He is meticulous and careful. He is a terrific communicator and has a very reasonable rate. We are thrilled with the work he's done in our home. First, he came same day to fix a light switch in our daughter's room that had started smoking (!). A few month later, we had him return to install recessed lighting as well as a new dining room fixture.  He worked hard to make sure we were happy with the results (we are!).

Project completed : Installing the new flush mount light.

Called advanced, arrived on time, explained the process and the price is reasonable. responsive to text. I will recommend if you need a good electrician.

All the lights went out in my kitchen and I couldn't figure out what to do. I called up these guys and they responded super quick and came by and helped me out right away. I never leave reviews but Ronnie was super professional and helpful that I had to say something. U don't get quality honest help like this now a days. Definitely give these guys a shot.

SM repair fixed faulty outlets for me. He was on time, honest, easy to work with, knowledgeable, and fair. I will not hesitate to do business with him for my future home repair needs.

Larry responded to my voice mail promptly. This guy is awesome! Unlike other electricians I reached for help, Larry asked me to send him a picture of my electrical panel and tried to do trouble shooting over the phone. He actually helped me solve the problem without coming to my house and charged me $0! I will definitely recommend ELS and Larry to all my friends!
