Best Businesses in San Jose, CA

We had 2 separate issues. Martin came out and fixed both in less than an hour. I am very happy, he did a great job!

Long-delayed review for an outstanding job. We had our whole house rewired in the fall to bring our 1937 firetrap up to date. Randy is a great communicator, gave us a very fair price, and was a delight to work with. The Mopia team was respectful, tidy, and skilled. We are delighted to have consistent and safe power and a bunch of new, more energy-efficient light fixtures. Great experience all around.

Robert and team went above and beyond to get the job done right. They provided very detailed quotes which give client very clear idea of what's involved. Pricing was fair and quality was one of the best. I am glad I went with Robert after receiving a few quotes.
Robert holds high standard for his work, and tries his best to give the best solution. He does not cut corner and delivers what's promised.
The whole process was quite stress free from start to finish. There were a few old wiring issue and space constraints at the attic, but Robert was able to work out all items with clever solutions and hard work. The job was done in four days which included several recessed lightings, ceiling fan and ventilation fans.
I will definitely hire Robert and team again in the future!

Hired him to defrost the upright freezer in our garage.  Antonio texted me the day before to confirm the appointment and arrived right on time.  He was able to figure out how to do it and was very patient with my husband, who wanted to help.  He even helped unload and reload the frozen food.  Reasonable price.  Very happy with him and will keep his card for future jobs.

Juan took care of fluorescent to LED conversion for a few light fixtures in my garage. The work was done promptly, and for a very reasonable price.

Dan is  a great guy. 2nd time I have used him and both been great experience.  Highly recommended.

I had a spa that just wouldn't work.  Jeremy's crew showed up and got it done in a jiffy.  Great work!

It's super hard to find someone who can trusted, especially for a woman who don't know anything about house, construction, electric....  Our house lights always not stable, which bugs me for a long time already.  It feels like living in a haunted house or something.  One day when I went out with my girlfriends, I mentioned my issue.  One of my friend told me about this company.  She said that they helped her to set up the lights in their garage n did a great job.  I called Hancock, the owner next day.  She was totally right.  He's so nice.  He scheduled me right away.  Arrived on time.  It didn't take him too long to find the problem.  I was really impressed.  I would totally recommend this company.

***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 major problem with our water softener tank, and Marcos Escobar, a Bellows Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical representative, came to our home in Santa Cruz County to help fix it.  Not only was he punctual, he was polite and very knowledgeable with our unit and our problem. He also called with a follow-up the following day with further information as promised. I highly recommend this professional company who is also organized with retuning telephone calls or emails.

I have used Jason exclusively for my electrical work for years now and had a recent need.  He met me at the location promptly quite early in the morning, and not only expertly did the work required, but took additional time to do new work that came up that was unanticipated!  Jason is professional, thorough, provides awesome value and is a joy to work with.  Look no further for your electrical needs!!!

Jon is pretty thorough and gave us a reasonable quote for hooking up our swim spa. He went the extra mile to do an additional visit to the site to talk to our contractor that was very confused. Problem solved quick!

Great service, Tim was my electrician he came on time and was very knowledgeable about his work he explained exactly what the problem was to me so I could understand, he did a great job on getting the power restored very quickly and did a fantastic job on cleaning up after he finished the job! I also appreciated the fact that he wore covers on his shoes to keep the floor clean. I looked around and found his prices to be very fair and he even offered me a discount for first time home buyers I highly recommend Five or Free electrical solutions, Tim was great, he made everything easy and showed me a great example of how good the service is at his business.

I think I've found my new go-to electrician! Brian was very quick to respond, very knowledgeable and very helpful to get our new EV charger installed. The craftsmanship is top notch and at a very reasonable price.

It was great working with Rob, he was on time and very thorough in searching out  my wiring problem.  He is very knowledgeable and clearly explained options as well as exactly how he was going to approach the wiring problem.

I highly recommend Odom Electric.

No invoice, cash only. Do not provide after service.
No guarantee on work after a week

My was excellent in his communication and service. I have him removed the existing fluorescent light fixture and installed a new flush-mount ceiling light. He re-assembled the removed fluorescent fixture and put this at the side. And tidied up the new ceiling light box and offered to sweep the floor when the job was done. In addition he patched up the holes used for the fluorescent fixture. Overall, I will get him again if I need any electrical work or projects to be done.

Francisco sent his crew back to retest the system, found out that the micro inverters were the issue. Since they are still under warranty  the manufacturer will replace all 24 micro inverters for me. It will take 2-4 weeks for them to ship. But for now I have 3 new inverters working that Francisco was kind enough to let me use it while waiting for the replacement.

We called Arkadiy about an outlet that had gone dead. His first question on the phone was had I checked the circuit breaker -- so that we wouldn't have to pay for him to come out if it were a simple fix (but I had tried that). He came the next morning and analyzed the source of the problem to find that it was a broken housing and wire on the roof. He installed a temporary fix, gave us a very reasonable quote to install a more permanent fix, and came back in a few days to finish the work.  He suggested that we think about any other electrical problems he could take care of while he would be coming for the roof work.

I especially appreciate that he is clear about costs; comes promptly;  sends text updates about his ETA; and is an expert at analyzing and fixing the problem at a reasonable price.  I would definitely call him for future needs and recommend him to my friends.
