We needed a 240 V EV plug installed.  I think the tech's name was Martin (Jan 21 at 8 am).  He explained everything and my engineer boyfriend said Martin knew his stuff.  The work was done quickly and neatly and the plug is working great.  Would definitely use them again.

I called Mopia Electric to put a light in our backyard. Randy came out & put some spot lights in the side of our house & also put some nice featured light for our plants. Humble guy we are very happy with his service & his customer service is excellent we highly recommend going with Mopia Electric.

We needed a electric vehicle charger for our new car and had no idea where to start. The yelp reviews led me Mr. Chen. He is everything plus more than what has been written on yelp. I called and the phone was answered immediately and then we communicated by text and photos. I sent him the pic of the electrical panel and then he sent me pics of different ev chargers, he had installed.  Long story short,  I thought the 220 electric dryer socket would work and sent a picture and of course it didn't work. He was extremely patient with me and contacted us the next day and offered to take a look and give a quote . His quote was more than fair and I  asked him to schedule us in. He was able to fit us in immediately. . We were lucky he had room in his schedule and about 2 hours later it was taken care of with our mobil Tesla charger. A new wall socket that gave us a level 2 charge. Very knowledgeable, honest, hardworking.

I thought I was finished with my review and received a text this morning. The installation required a hole to pull through wires and Robert was not satisfied with the finish work. He returned at no cost and cleaned up the installation where the wires came out of the panel to the charger. It was a bit ragged, but I didn't mind as the charger works.

Honest, detailed workmanship at a fair price! Can't get better than that. All the reviews are true! He is really a 10 star.

Antonio is a very reliable handyman and puts his 200% on the job and has no short cuts. He helped with TV installation on the wall.

We had an issue with our electric panel which caused half of our house electric to go out.  This happened in the evening and we called peralta electric to come out the next day, which was a weekend. They tried to troubleshoot with my husband over the phone.  When he figured out what might be the issue, he found the part and came out immediately and was such a lifesaver.  He came in and fixed the problem right away.  Very reasonable costs.  Thank you! Will think of you next time we need an electrician!

Excellent!!!  I used Dan for the installation of the Tesla wall charger.  I end up selecting him out of many electricians from YELP because of the positive reviews I read from YELP.  The reviews were all consistent as what I have experienced  - very professional, friendly, prompt, and honest.  As on his rate, his price is reasonable and similar to other electricians that quoted me.  

In my experience, Dan came to setup wires from the main electric panel to the other side of the garage of the EV charger.  Because the shipping of the Tesla wall charger was delay and couldn't arrive before the appointment date, Dan went to purchase an EV charger to ensure that the wiring worked well after the installation and I have a fast charger to use (borrowed a few day) while I waited for my Tesla charger.  Greatly appreciate his help outside scope of his work.

I will definitely recommend BAM.  Thank you for your great service!

This is definitely the type of local company anybody would want to do business with. These guys, and gals, are very professional from beginning to end. From the moment I placed an initial call, until the end when I made the final payment upon completion of the work, everything went very smoothly. Before Jeremy even showed up for the estimate appointment, I had received a courtesy call the day before, as well as the day of. The ladies at the office were also really helpful with coordinating everything, and answering all of my questions. When James came out to do the work, again, very prompt, and everything was done quickly. If anybody is looking for a reliable, professional, and honest electrical company, I would highly recommend Got Watts Electric.

Today I initiated a Yelp request for price quotes for a small electrical job. DEN Electric was quick to respond with a quote. Hancock, the owner, said he could come to do the job today, even though it was already late in the afternoon. He arrived, evaluated the job swiftly and completed the job in a neat and timely manner. He honored his original quote.  He and his business partner, James, were pleasant and easy to work with.   I would contact DEN Electric again for electrical projects.

***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.

If you're looking for a reliable company to fix your AC unit, this company will be the last company you should consider, period.
(1) The initial diagnosis fee is Not cheap, more then the other company.
(2) The technician didn't give you the estimate until you got the bill. $5 fuse, he'll charge you $179.
(3) After 4 days, system broke down, technician didn't know what to do, proposed more Expensive solutions...the system never got fixed...I have to hire the other five stars company & fixed it.
If you like to know The whole situations, go to Google search for my whole statements.
After all, we deserve better services as consumers...Sad! :(

Great service! If you are looking for electrician to install your Tesla Wall Connector here is your man Ja owner of Oak Electric. Jason on very short notice (2 days) squeezed our job in his busy schedule. He was very easy to reach, no needs for leaving message just immediate direct contact. He with his helper come today 1/7/20 at 7AM and within 1 1/2 hr installed Tesla Wall Connector. I was prepared for this installation thinking that this will be difficult job and getting nice clean and not intrusive installation. I sent him pictures with explanation via text messages what I would like to have done. I bought stud finder just in case and have other tools. He did not need all this stuff. He has everything in his van, all tools  and all parts. Jason with his helper knows exactly how this could be done. This required to run wire from an electrical box that was unfortunately installed not in proper place when we originally built the house. Jason easily find out how to run behind the wall wire from electrical box to the place where Tesla Wall Connector was eventually situated. No condescending talks like you often hear from so called experts with years of experience. He run the #6 wire behind the wall and also replaced 50 amps circuits breaker to 60 amps so we could charge our Tesla with 48 amps. He did very clean job and after 1 1/2 hr Tesla had a new feed. Jason is a great communicator, very easy to work with, very professional and doing quality work. I highly recommend him.

Excellent service from JMC.

I got a  referred  from Vhet at Hot tub Spas to JMC for the installation of the spa.
Jon came out in advance to check the location of the electrical and give few options. We agreed on the most logical , less disruptive way to install, he drop off the electrical conduits so we can get the place ready for the spa and electrical, he coordinates with us in  getting the pad ready, coordinates his installation crews with the spa delivery on the same day.

Hector and Alex was great.  They did a thorough , clean and neat job, patiently explain what, where ,and how he was going to install the electrical.

I would highly recommend JMC Electrical service.

Seems like this company prices by the value of the house instead of the work. Quotes $5,000 for installing a 220V outlet 10 feet from panel inside the garage! Truely means 5 in name means its quotes starting fives?

Now have multiple quotes from reputed electricians for close to $1k, which too seems excessive so still seeking bids. But $5k??? The Gilbert guys has to be installing gold plated wires!!!

Just get someone else for your electrical work.

It was very easy to interact with Brian, via email or text we were able to discuss the project, and schedule a date for it. Brian was on time. He did a terrific job, extremely clean. I needed to install a Tesla wall charger, which involved adding amp circuit in my main panel. The installation is super clean. I also asked him to instal 2 outdoor outlets and same, perfect job, super clean. He is now saved in my favorite contact and will for sure use his services for my next project. Professional work, very nice and friendly, pay attention to the details. 5 stars work ! Definitely recommend !

I am the supremely lucky one to have persevered long enough to find these guys. Truly, I had work to do and several unsavory issues with other electricians.  I experienced indifference, high prices and lack of customer service from many competing electricians. Rob  is courteous, competent, trustworthy and patient. All went so perfectly I have now have him scheduled for more work. And I'm going to use him in the future for all of my apartments and homes. Enough said!

You want an Electrician who knows what they are doing and somebody who is up front and honest with his pricing...then call LAM Electric.

We had quite a bit of work to do, from changing a location of an outlet, a faulty breaker outside the house, and loose/dangling outlets everywhere. He showed up for a free quote, provided the pricing which was very competitive to others, but he had a flat fee which I loved vs somebody charging you by the hour. He also provided us some ideas for future renovations for our recess lighting. I will definitely be using LAM Electric again!!!

My and his team are really nice and efficient. I really appreciate their quick response time and service. Since we've moved into our 1980s home, we've been working hard to bring it to the times with our SmartThings. When one of our smart switches wasn't working in the hallway, My came quickly and found the problem. We also hired him to install a NEMA outlet for us and he was able to give us a competitive rate for it as well. While he was here for the NEMA outlet, I asked him about my garbage disposal outlet in the kitchen, and he was able to find out what was wrong with it and fix it for me. Honestly, his team is great and I know he will be the only electrician we will be using for now on!

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.

Arkadiy is such a professional individual. He came over on time, had one of the most reasonable prices and was so gracious when I had to cancel last minute!!

Will definitely call him for future needs. Thank you!!
