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

Scope of work:

- 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

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.

Moises did a great job in adding canned lights in my living room.  We had no crawl space so it was a difficult job as he had to cut a few small pieces  of sheetrock out to accomplish the install. Did an excellent job of patching them back in and I am very pleased with the installl and will use him again.

Roman knows his stuff, does great work, professional, really enjoyed working with him. Our first experience with him was with installing recessed lights (he provides all materials), left not one scratch on our vaulted ceilings, despite the tricky access via attic. We'll have him back to assist with panel expansion/upgrade.

Spoke to Rick Grover about an issue facing me with an electrical circuit. He took the time
on the phone on a Saturday morning to ask the right questions and explain the options to me, and basically tell me what I needed to know.
Very friendly and helpful.

Julian from Dalcon electric most recently put a direct line for my kitchen because of a problem with a microwave. Incredible attention to detail, extremely efficient, very detailed work is just completed. Awesome customer service. Very professional and very friendly! I recommend them very very highly..

AY EMP did a great job fixing some of my broken switches and installing a neutral wire for a smart switch upgrade. They were happy to work with my home warranty provider and quickly got the job done in a couple of hours.

I would highly recommend their service if you are ever need for electrical work done!

I needed a 220V outlet in my garage for an EV charging station and James did the most professional job we have ever witnessed from contractors coming in. He was extremely thorough, explained every decision and most importantly left the area cleaner than how he found it.  If you want the job done well, with perfect care for your house and have him leave the place looking like it has been designed this way - EV Electric is a great choice!!

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.

I highly recommend All Systems. I received prompt, efficient service. My technician taught me how to install my fluorescent bulbs next time.

Emanuel is the best by far!

I say this through experience because I actually called and hired two other electricians for some work (and got estimates from several other electricians) for install of a new 200 amp service panel etc. But ECP Electric (Emanuel Perakis) was the best by far across the board for both price and more importantly, quality of work. Oh I wish I had worked with Emanuel from the beginning for the initial service panel install. Emanuel will always be the electrician I call in the future and recommend to friends. Because Emanuel runs a small operation, you'll always get Emanuel and his co-worker Pablo to do your electrical job in person (and not some random crew you didn't get to meet or chat with during an estimate visit - if you have had any kind of service work done on your home, you know how much this can actually matter)

Emanuel and Pablo did a bunch of things over the course of a few separate visits:
1) they installed new branch circuit to garage, installed and wired 4 new garage grounded outlets along the walls, installed new washer/dryer outlets and cleaned up existing washer/dryer wiring, removed all the old not-to-code 1960s DIY electrical wires, lighting and conduits throughout the garage, installed a new interior garage light
2) installed exterior lights (exterior garage carriage lights with a digital timer switch, exterior Ring motion detecting security light, and exterior lights for the backyard of the home)
3) were willing to and did a great job cleaning up poor and sloppy service panel wiring by a previous company - basically they redid most of the wiring per my request
4) installed new recessed LED lights throughout the home (in process they found and fixed poor, fire hazard electrical work in attic by the previous home owner's handyman)
5) inspected electrical wiring in crawl space underneath home to sanity check for any issues, fixed an awkwardly installed outlet by a previous electrician in a kitchen cabinet, added a quad outlet underneath kitchen sink to better accommodate RO filter/dish washer/garbage disposal plugs

Highly recommend!

During the recent PG&E blackouts in October, my electrical main panel fo my 1955 house was experiencing breaker issues where it interrupted service - it kept tripping on and off.  I called around for an electrician and I finally connected with Henry at California Power & Light.  He came by within 45 minutes after the call and he showed up at 10 PM at night when I told him that I did not have power (my house only).  He was able to assess the problem and he fixed it.  Yay!!!  

I later called Henry back to eventually replaced and upgrade the entire electrical main panel - I had an old panel that didn't support the power output for the home, which I knew when I bought the home in 2015.  Henry was my guy to do the job - he installed an new electrical panel and he also managed with the permit process and final inspection with the City from beginning to end.    

My advice: Unless you're a knowledgeable and certified electrician--don't mess with anything beyond the basics in order to save money or cut corners. For any kind of electrical rewiring, tinkering with an electric panel or installing new fixtures...definitely call a pro.  If you do, then call Henry at California Power & Light.  You won't be disappointed!!!

I needed to install a couple of Nest Floodlights, and Fred listed out the detailed pricing, what he was going to do.

He came out and installed them extremely fast and even had me test them to make sure that they were working and adjusted to the right angle.

Afterwards we talked for a bit and I asked him about potentially installing all the curtain/rods in my rooms, he came back another day and was able to complete that as well with the same professionalism as before.

Definitely will continue to use him for any future handyman stuff!

I called David to diagnose some broken power outlets and a heater after a recent power outage.  He was efficient, friendly, explained everything very clearly, and was very reasonably-priced. I'd definitely call him again in the future.

Mr. Zhang was doing Very efficient completion of inspections and repairs. I just called this morning he come in 30mins . ps：he is humorous.

Very quick to get back to me. He does very clean work and was able to get it done on the same day. Very professional electrician.

I asked Sam to fix two small things (faucet and a tile repair).  
He showed up within an hour and did a great job on both projects.  Highly recommend.

Larry and his assistant, Dan, were out to deal with a faulty ballast in one of the street lights in our condo complex. They have been able to repair others for us even though they are hard to find parts for because of their age. Both exude knowledge, experience, and genuine friendliness. A delight to work with.
