Best Electricians in United States
This review is a long time in coming; my project was completed on April 4th, 2014.
I am very satisfied with Victor + teams' work in my home. Victor was the only electrician to answer my calls after trying 7 different phone numbers via Yelp. His assessment appointment was quick, and cost nothing. He identified the problem quickly, gave a recommendation, and then named his costs. When I asked him to specify what exactly made the project cost what it did, he broke the list down by component, labor, and extra materials needed. I thought he charged fairly for labor.
Victor and his team arrived 10 minutes early. They removed a 50+ year old kitchen and dining area lighting system + non-functioning chandelier, and installed 10 LED recessed ceiling lights + a dimmer switch by rewiring through the attic-space and cutting bigger holes in the ceiling. They also did a lot of extra work without extra charge; all in all, the job was finished with 2 hours to spare (from the time frame they had given me).
Victor and his men were focused, friendly, and careful. They cleaned up before and after the job was done. Victor had to take a lot of calls during the job; several people were requesting his services throughout the day. He and his men clearly knew what they were doing; they didn't have to backtrack or wait for more parts to come.
Victor is very responsive; if you call him and he doesn't pick up, leave your phone number, and he will call or text you as soon as he can (always within 15 minutes in my experience). Victor actually came back a week later on his own time to help recycle the parts that came down from the old lightning system, since I was at a loss as to what to do with them. I appreciate the time he and his team took to do a professional job. I highly recommend them for electrical jobs both big and small.

Five or Free responded within 30 minutes of my initial call for an estimate. Five or Free found a window the same day, to take a look at my case studies. Allen Mena and I (think) John (the redbeard) reviewed and quoted the case studies as requested. Both great guys. Five or Free was able to squeeze in the not-so-easy chandelier hanging (that 9 other electrical firms had quoted more than double- no joke) the day before Thanksgiving. Team Christian and Renee- the best. I don't need a social experience for home-repair, but Chris and Renee were absolutely kind and thoughtful people. They managed to inject their generosity into a job well done. The lamps look amazing, they have garnered many compliments, and we look forward to Five or Free solutioning our other problems. Lights Out on the other companies. Don't fumble in the dark- call five or free.

I was looking for some serious electrical work to be done at home and came across Juan at High Power Electric.
The quality of the work done by Juan and his crew was outstanding, ensuring that all articles in the living room are properly covered in plastic including the paths leading to it. He installed recess lights and track light in my living room, and it is one of the cleanest job I have ever seen.
I would like to thank Juan for his dedication and work.

Stewart got back to me right away and I was able to book an appointment for the next morning. The team that came in was very professional. They found the problems, showed me pictures of the problem wiring and shortly after they fixed my issue! This guys know their stuff! I would definately call them again for any electrical problem.

Big projects beware!
From reading the other reviews, it looks like Roger does a good job with small projects and seems to talk very well. However, our big remodel resulted in huge budget overruns, failure to meet critical timelines and an invoice full of ghost work days.
Many other customers mention Roger's walk through and great communication. We had a great walkthrough and a talk that instilled me with great confidence. Of course, that talk never made it into writing and was denied aggressively after the work done already exceeded an agreed price by 150%...and still counting.
I postponed the installation of a dishwasher, stove hood, A/C and fireplace insert because scheduled electrical work just didn't happen. Apparently they had other big projects that took precedent.
I took two days off work to meet with the electricians at East Bay Electric to discuss the progress and get a status update. They did not show but those days showed up on the invoice. Now the electrical part of the remodel is stopped over a cost dispute. Of course, I was informed that the original quote could not be accurate because they are so busy they don't need new customers. They overbid now because of all the work they have and would not have given me such a low bid. Then, I was told that if I didn't pay the inflated invoice, they could put a lien on my house...but nobody really wants it to get to that.
Yesterday I discovered during a city inspection of the work so far that Roger did not permit the electrical work. Now I am left with an unfinished electrical system and possible penalties for simple negligence. At a critical stage of a long, expensive remodel, I am forced to find an emergency replacement electrician and battle over a ridiculous invoice for unfinished work.
Get those great Roger speeches in writing!

Going with Bill's Quality Electric was an easy decision since one, Bill was super easy to talk to and I like how he explained his costs and estimates without me asking. And secondly, Steve and Miguel who did the electrical work did an outstanding job and made sure I was happy with the end result by walking me through the finished work. I don't think you could go wrong with these guys ever.

Mark was kind and such a professional. On top of that , he saved us a lot of money! Super cheap compared to all the other quotes we received from other companies.

Kirrill and Erin were total pros. They handled the permitting, scheduling, and installation with ease. A lot of the other EV installers either won't return your call, or don't do a complete job with permitting. These guys handled the full operation and were responsive the whole way.
5 stars, perfect install of my Tesla wall charger. Thanks guys.

Dave and his crew were absolutely fantastic to work with. I had booked them to move a chandelier over a foot or so and had them install the new chandelier as well. They made the entire process seamless and they were so friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely be booking them again for future projects as their pricing was reasonable for the quality of work they provided.

Hector and his crew were great! They came out to replace outlets and switches in our home and installed our Tesla charging outlet. They are professional and patient and took extra precautions by wearing booties throughout the property (really appreciated that). The job was completed on time!
We will hire them again for more upcoming electrical work in our home.
We highly recommend Santiago Electric for your electrical needs. Thanks guys!

Had an electric short killing power to our heater and TV/Internet. After replacing the breaker and not solving the problem, I called Ry around 4pm and was thrilled he answered the phone. He offered to come by after his day was done, at 8pm, in the rain, to try and solve the issue. Not being critical we agreed to the next morning at 7am, before the rest of his work day. Personable and professional local BC guy who was very helpful and willing to follow-up to ensure longevity of the work performed. Highly recommend Ry and Always Current.

Fast efficient service, very knowledgeable and explained everything. Went above and beyond! Checked everything, changed what was necessary only and his prices were very fair. Great follow up also to make sure issues were completely resolved. Local business too because I look forward to supporting smaller companies.

Dave - was here to replace two light fixtures for us. He quoted us about an hour barring any unforeseen complications. It took him exactly an hour :-). Once he removed the first light he found a possible issue and warned me about as well quoted me what the extra time would be but it wound up not being an issue.
His work was quick, clean, efficient and professional. I have since recommended him to two other people that asked me who I used to have the work done.

Micah installed my level 2 EV charger in my garage. Micah responded quickly to my request for work. He was on time and finished the work quickly. He suggested installation of the charger in an area that made more sense than what I had initially thought. The final price was in line with the estimate. Micah is properly licensed and insured also. Every aspect of his service exceeded my expectations. Easy five stars.

It's been a great experience working with Chris for my outlet and light fixture issues. Our 60-year-old electrical wirings are very messy and complicated, Chris really took the time to troubleshoot and found the root cause of the problem. Communication with him was great and he was very good at following up with different issues. I am very grateful for the professional services he offered, and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an electrician!

I sent out 3 requests for an estimate/appointment as we had an issue with an overhead light flashing. The first company replied in a timely manner and said that they were too busy. The second said that he could do it, asked all of the right questions and as we were going to book the appointment I asked what the charge would be. He said $650 for San Francisco!! Huh? Authentic Electrical (Don) also responded and said that he would have Alex contact me to set up an appointment. They charge $200/hour. While that's not a bargain either I went for it. Alex texted me within the hour and showed up promptly at the agreed time. He diagnosed the problem and was on his way in 25 minutes. Right after he left, I noticed that a plug didn't seem to be working and I texted him immediately. He came back within 5 minutes, troubleshot the outlet and was off again in 10 minutes. All of this was within the one hour that I'd paid for and I couldn't be more pleased. Alex was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. What more can you ask for?
