Best Electricians in United States
Took care of circuit breaker issue on Sunday. They even optimized their schedule to get to mom's place a couple of hours earlier than the initial appointment time. They were very communicative with text from initial contact to the end.

***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 were pretty unsatisfied with this install. We booked a new HVAC through Costco but were pretty disappointed in the execution. It's been two months since the day they started, and we are still having them come fix things before we can get the inspection. We were without heat for days during a heat wave, because they didn't have parts they needed. (Why didn't they know what they needed before they started?) Then they needed more parts and we had to wait another month. They cut the wiring to our drip irrigation/landscaping and put it back together wrong, which we didn't figure out until half of our garden died from not getting watered. They put the metal pieces on our artificial turf while they were installing which burned parts of the grass which now looks awful. They've taken no responsibility for any of these errors, and claimed they couldn't have been responsible for the burned grass even though it wasn't there the day before the install and then it was. They put the thermostat in a new and very odd place without calling me at work to discuss it first (in between a picture frame and a door jam in a very visible area) and said they'd move it but of course it would damage the wall.. Ugh. Just overall very not slick, not responsive, not responsible for their screw-ups, and not competent.
I'm not sure why Costco uses them. :(

Called Jason a few weeks ago and he replied immediately. we agreed upon a time for him to come over and address some light switch and bulb issues. He was on time, did the job very quickly and professionally and charged me a very reasonable rate. He was great with my dog too which is a big plus :-) . I will call Oak Electric again as Jason is a super nice guy and did a great job for me.

I interviewed 3 electricians to hook up our spa. John took the time to look at our house and layout to come up with the most reasonable way to get power out to the spa. He explained the process and his recommendation. He was always responsive when I reached out.
Alfredo came out to do the work. He arrived early, was careful when in our house, and answered all questions I had. He stayed late to make sure the spa was hooked up and running. There was one small item he promised to come and take care of the next day. He came as planned and we are all set.
I definitely recommend JMC.

We hired them to remove an old ceiling fan and install a new one in a different location. They have a nice high-tech interfacing experience. They came and gave us a free estimate - immediately sent us an email and were able to accept the quote within the email. Alex and Jorge arrived on time, very friendly and respectful of COVID precautions (masks, booties, sanitizing wipes). They did a great job and cleaned up after they finished. Very impressive!

Super fast turn around. Got the job done quickly and correctly. That's about all you can ask for.

Wow- finally a dependable (and available) electrician!!
I was referred to LAM- we had a great experience with owner and crew. There were several electrical fixes around the house that weren't substantial enough to get interest from other electricians. Called LAM, got owner to come out next day and start work following day.
Crew cleaned up after themselves and got done after two visits with positive results- everything works great and price was extremely reasonable! I've already referred Mr. Binh to several folks- I will definitely use him again!

I called Clever Electric yesterday to inquire about some electrical work needed. The first thing he said was it will cost you $129 for me to come out and look in a not so nice manner. He probably was on the job or in a bad mood but if you can't answer the phone in a nice way then don't answer. If he had said it to me in a nice professional manner and said that would go towards the whole bill I would have considered hiring him since they have such great reviews. Not now.

I highly recommend Zurc Power Solutions for all your solar needs. Francisco is very knowledgeable and can easily explain the intricacies of going solar. They installed our system 3 years ago and have kept in touch by monitoring our system to make sure everything is working properly. I've referred him to friends and they are all very happy with their systems. Best of all, in this heat we can keep our house cool and we actually got money back at the end of the year. It's easy to do. Just call Zurc Power Solutions and get your solar installed today.

We contacted Odom Electric based on the Yelp reviews, and they were absolutely right. Now we're recommending this company, so that anyone looking for a great electrician knows where to find one!
Rob has done three projects at our house so far - installed dimmer switches throughout the house, ran the surround sound wiring through the wall & attic and mounted the rear speakers to the ceiling, and installed a new outlet in the bathroom. He was always on time, professional, knowledgeable, efficient and he was very pleasant to work with.
We have several future projects and will definitely be calling him back!

Arkadiy was personable and knowledgeable. He was able to repair my ethernet connection over CAT5 to a accessory building. Everything went well. He provided an estimate and beat it. Hire him with confidence. Highly recommended for your ethernet cabling needs.

I was having a problem with the electrical panel's circuit breakers. Brian returned my call promptly and then arrived 15 min later. He fixed the problem quickly, and he checked a few other things just to make sure everything was in good working order. Very reasonable! Everything is working GREAT! I would definitely call him again.
