Had Ken upgrade my service panel, replacing the old FPE panel with a new, safer box. Ken made a fast, thorough job of it, and was very responsive and professional throughout the process. I'm very happy with the work he did and will be relying on him for further electrical service in the future.

There are plenty of other electricians/companies out there and I'd suggest going with someone else.  The tech quoted me $4700.00 for a generator transfer switch and said it was originally 7k. What a joke. I think they forget that we have the ability to get quotes from other vendors and customers can and do their homework prior to securing a vendor.  The tech had to call another technician that specializes in generator transfer switches.  Why would the company send a tech out that didn't know what to do in the first place. FYI: all the other electricians quoted 1K to $1500. Go elsewhere.

Luis and his colleague installed a 50 amp outlet for an EV charger in our garage in Orinda, including an underground hook up to our circuit breaker box.  He did the job quickly with no fuss and was highly professional.  I plan to use him again for future jobs.

Amazing work and communication from Gavin! The list of the work that he did for my house below.

Ring Doorbell: Installed a new mechanical doorbell chime, a transformer, and wired everything up.

Ring Floodlight Camera: Displayed his creativity where he had to run an electrical wire from a backend outlet in the garage towards the front of the house. Keep in mind that the garage is all drywall.

Google Nest Power C Wire Connector: Seamless installation of the unit to provide constant power to our Google Nest Thermostat.

Light Switches: Quick installation of our ELV dimmers to get rid of the buzzing noise for our recess lights.

I highly recommend reaching out to Gavin for any electrical assistance.

I used Mikhail to help replace two old mid-century main electrical panels.

Mikhail did excellent electrical work -- he was timely, flexible to our schedule, very knowledgable and quite wonderfully took the time to explain things; since old electrical stuff can be enigmatic.  I like how the wiring looks, too.

He revealed a fire hazard I didn't know about (no master breakers) and we also traced a rogue 240V line to the very end of the house which in the future will come in very handy.  Win win!

He arrived when he said he would, finished likewise and kept to budget.  

Things always come up, of course. In my case I hadn't figured out the best place for the 2nd EV charger outlet.

After noodling it out it made more sense to do some preliminary work before installing it. No problem for Mikhail. He took down the price for the work immediately.

Drew and Morgan worked through a list of electrical tasks I'd collected for some time, ranging from running ethernet cable to installing new ceiling light fixtures.  They did the work over a couple of days late September/early October.  They were pleasant to work with and most tasks were completed satisfactorily.  They clearly knew what they were doing and had good suggestions to deal with problem situations.  However I have to give them a mediocre review due to a few flaws.  Little things were that they were a bit sloppy, leaving wire strippings, packaging, etc. lying around in some places and dumping trash into my recycling bin leaving me to sort it out.  They installed a mis-matched switch in a 4-gang switch box.  An outdoor security light was not set properly.  There were some leftover parts in boxes for new fixtures which the instructions indicating they should have been installed.  They failed to install one of the new outdoor light fixtures.  They never provided the promised detailed scope of work invoice I'd asked for when they were done.  When I contacted them about the mis-matched switch and outdoor light fixture, they said they'd order the correct switch and would come out when it arrived.  After several weeks with no word, I texted them and was told they were too busy right now.   After another month I texted again and have received no response.  I finally gave up and either did the work myself or will get someone else.  So shame on me for paying them before doing a more thorough evaluation of their work.  If you hire them, don't make the same mistake.

Answered immediately, came within 2 hours after finishing that day's job, and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. What more do you want in an electrician?!?  Saved a refrigerator full of food!

David upgraded old CFL recessed light cans in my kitchen to LEDs.  He was very professional, nice, and completed the job right at the estimated cost.  I also appreciate how responsive he was when I made the appointment.  I highly recommend Tinpa Electrical.

Max was fantastic! Showed up within hours of making the same-day appointment, and even texted me to say he could be early. Did the job (changing out a dimmer switch and rewiring a rocker switch) very easily. I'm glad I opted for an experienced professional instead of doing this myself - it would have taken me easily 3x longer and I would have gotten something wrong no doubt. Max was very polite, professional and prompt, and I'd have him out to do any future job in a heartbeat.

Changed 3 outlet plugs in a timely manner and affordable price. Thanks Lawrence! A++++

I hired Ricardo to swap out an old fuse sub panel with a new breaker sub panel. He came on time and got the job done quickly and professionally. Ricardo is easy to communicate with and is clear and honest with his prices. For example, he quoted me for dry wall patching but since he didn't have to open the wall, he removed that part from the final price. I would recommend him to others.

Kevin with KLM Utilities was a pleasure to work with in upgrading the electrical panel of my home in SF. He provided a competitive price, finished the work quickly, and handled the whole project without missing a beat including city permit and inspection.  He is great with updates on progress and answering any questions. It did take a few weeks to get the project on his book, which is a good thing - in this market any good contractor should be busy.

I hired Pacific Coast to replace my 2 wall heaters with new units as well as the ducts from the heaters to the roof. I also had them blow insulation into my attic. By bundling that into the heater work, they gave me a very nice discount. I especially appreciate tech/salesman David Earl Glover who took several hours to explain the pros and cons of wall heaters vs. central heating. He did a thorough inspection of my heaters and my attic. We signed the contract on a Friday and the heaters/ducts were installed on Monday - and with permits, too! The techs who came to the house were Covid protected, were knowledgeable, thorough and personable. They cleaned up after themselves as well. Communication with their office personnel was always pleasant. Mr. Glover let me know that if I had any questions or issues I could call him at any time. I am really happy with Pacific Electric, Heating & Air. I highly recommend them!

I worked with Alex at Divine plumbing for quick fixes including snaking some tricky bathroom sinks, but he also spent time with me to talk through options on a range of projects ranging from new toilet installations to running a new water line for an ice maker.

Divine has their act together on the digital front, sending pricing proposals via email and being super responsive to emails. In addition, you don't get a hard sell and they spend time to talk through this pros and cons of each package. I'd highly recommend.

Alex added new recessed lighting to a vaulted ceiling with difficult access and troubleshot an existing wiring problem. The job was well done, efficient, and cost effective. I will be hiring this guys again. Thank you

Paul did a very good job wiring up our new office in Hayes Valley.  He definitely moved faster than the other tech people working to get us into our new office (the server guy, the ISP, phone company, etc.)  

It is an old victorian building and we didn't want to damage anything, or have ugly wires visible anywhere. He figured out how to hide the wires neatly and used the crown moldings and closets and other existing features to hide the wire chases.  It was quite a big job: both phones and computers throughout our entire office.   The wire closet is very tidy with all wires labeled and organized so that when we upgraded our server it was very easy to hook in to the existing wires.  

I would use Paul again.  In fact, we did bring him back to add some additional extensions as we grew.  I have also recommended Paul to other friends wiring up their offices.

Ninous was great, he got the job done quick and was super professional. They really saved our butts when we had to change out our compressor. We will call no one else now!!!! Thanks from everybody at Swat Customs in Fremont.

Ertan and his crew were on time and on budget helping me get prepared for a condo conversion inspection. Ertan is a stand up professional who has followed through on several projects. He's been highly flexible to my schedule as well as very experienced in walking me through the process. I look forward to working with him in the future. I have recommended him to numerous friends and family who are looking for similar high quality work.

Ash is definitely an honest guy!  I had him come to my house and worked on 2 projects.  1 was installing a switch and another was to replace the knob and tube wiring I had around the house.  Both jobs were done in a quick and efficient manner.  We did have a little accident at the 2nd job, but it was fixed and compensated for by the end of the day.  Ash is quick and Easy.  No BS kind of guy.  Getting a hold of him sometimes can be difficult, but he'll eventually return your calls.  What can I say, he's a popular guy!  I would definitely give him a call again in the future for any other projects I have.

Professional services. Mike is very professional, knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time and finally identified the problem with power in my house. Once it's identified, he fixed it quickly. I appreciate his attitude and efforts. Certainly will recommend Adary to our friends. Again, big thanks to Mike.
