Best Generator Installation in San Francisco CA
Jothi, John, and Steve were very professional, fun to banter with, and extremely patient when we figured out we had to add on a few last minute items to the job. I highly recommend Redwood Electric! I'm already compiling a wish list for more lighting in our household, that is once we more funds available. Great job, Guys!

It always feels good to support local businesses, but it's especially rewarding to support ones that are just getting started. When I went on Yelp looking for an electrician, Estiben and Brains Automation Homes didn't even have any reviews yet! It's always a little risky to go with a business with no reviews, but something told me Estiben knew what he was doing, and I can definitely say I made a good choice in selecting him for my home project.
I had been wanting to replace the old and ugly outlets and switches in my home, and decided to get a few quotes just to see what I would be getting myself into. Brains Automation Homes offered a competitive estimate and got the job done exactly as I had requested and quickly (I was able to schedule an appointment the same week I started looking for an electrician). It turns out Estiben is a one-man show breaking out on his own and trying to build up his business (hence, not many reviews). He's licensed, competent, and friendly. He knew exactly what I was talking about when I mentioned I might want to replace an outlet with one that had USB ports. As the business name indicates, Brains Automation Homes has experience with hooking up smart homes, so you know Estiben is knowledgeable about some of the latest tech.
For my project, Estiben arrived on time, was very polite, got the job done well, and cleaned up after himself. In all, he replaced two regular outlets, two outlet-switch combinations with GFCI, two double light switches, two single light switches, and a three-switch contraption in the bathroom that connects to the light, the fan, and a heater. The bathroom switch was a late add-on (I thought it might be too complicated), but Estiben had all the necessary parts, so he was able to take care of it then and there.
I have a few more electrical projects in mind, and I won't hesitate to contact Brains Automation Homes when the time comes.

Incredibly responsive with accurate and fair priced quote. The electrician came on time. Did great install and was very flexible even with our indecisiveness.

Five stars is not nearly enough. I requested estimates from seven electricians on Yelp. I sent pictures and described what I wanted done. I said I would like the work completed sometime over the next three days and asked for estimates.
Four electricians wanted to set up appointments to provide an estimate and then schedule the actual work. Two electricians provided tentative rates or estimates that to my mind seemed excessive.
Jaime was the only one who provided a firm and exceedingly reasonable estimate based on the pictures and description of work. He was available to do the work the next morning. He showed up and immediately began working. It took a little over an hour to complete the repair.
The before and after pictures speak for themselves. He cleaned up a massively out of control set wires in a junction box in the garage and ran a new wire to a new outlet closer to the garage door opener eliminating the need for an extension cord.
Jaime's English is a bit limited but we were able communicate okay. He could see exactly what needed to be done so communication really wasn't an issue.
In terms of results, the finished project is above and beyond what I had expected.
Highly Recommend...

While visiting my parents, I discovered that a series of their lights didn't work. After checking all the breakers it looked like a breaker needed to be replaced. Due to the age of the house, I didn't feel comfortable to replace the breaker myself.
I call Micah Electric to see if they could swing by while I was at my parents house. Since he was booked he gave me the name of an associate he thought might be available. Before letting me go, he asked me to describe the lights that were not working. When I mentioned that one of the lights and plugs was in the bathroom, Micah asked if i had checked the GFI switch. I hadn't - should have. Once I reset the GFI, the lights and plugs worked.
Thank you very much Micah! Instead of just telling me you were not available, you helped we determine what was wrong and how to fix it. You made my day and allowed me to spend my day with my parents instead of finding an electrician!
Appreciate the help. If I still lived in the Bay Area, I would use Micah Electric for all my electrical needs and recommend anyone who lives he to given them a call when needed.

Miro was a delight to work with. The electrician I hired cancelled on me last minute to install a complex chandelier. I called BV and they sent an electrician right away. Miro who is the owner told me that 2 electrician should would be required which meant more money than I originally planned to spend. Miro then reduced the price to what the previous electrician quoted and also provided 2 electricians and he even came to assist with the installation. My husband and I was so grateful.

Started out well enough. Made an appointment, but they had to reschedule last minute. Owner himself came over the next day and gave an honest assessment of the job, saying that we're better of doing time and materials instead of set quote, as it would save us money. Struck us as honest enough and wanted to book him.
He promised to text us to set an appointment, but that's where the review fell off. After at least two calls, texts, and emails each, they were totally non-responsive. Turned out to be wasted time.

I tried installing a smart switch myself only to see 10 more wires in the box than expected in the manual. Tried myself for hours to figure it out and reached out to get some last minute help.
Jeffrey quickly responded, accommodated me on a day off, came over within a couple hours and within 30 minutes sorted out everything and got us up and running.

Great experience to troubleshoot a malfunctioning light. Got immediate written confirmation of the appointment. Mikhail arrived promptly and explained what he was doing and why. He went over costs with me before proceeding with the fix and was in and out super quickly. Could not have been easier!

Sierra Electric has done two jobs for us and I could not be more satisfied. They are professional and prompt - the electrician who worked in our house was knowledgeable, answered all my questions clearly, and made reasonable recommendations which we are glad that we followed. On one occasion he stopped in earlier on the day of our appointment to make sure he would bring all the necessary supplies when the appointment time came. I will definitely use them for any work I need in the future and recommend them to anyone who needs electric work.

Amp Electric are super experienced and professional folks. Jaime initially came out to quote the work to install a new exhaust fan and I immediately had good vibes from him. These guys are genuine and care about the work, and gave a very fair price. I never felt like they were trying to pull one on us, and at this point we have met a lot of contractors looking to rip off new homeowners. Also the entire time we worked together they were always respectful of our space and wore masks. As with all old houses there was a bunch of weird stuff hiding behind the walls but they went above and beyond to take care of things the right way per code. We ended up also hiring them to replace our dangerous Federal Pacific electric panel and they took care of the communication with PGE and building permits as well. And most importantly they were AWESOME with communication. Jaime made it clear that we could always reach out to see how things were going (and working with PGE means that there are gonna be months of waiting before work can start) so we never felt abandoned and he would promptly respond with our status whenever we reached out. These guys are a diamond in the rough, I can't recommend them enough!

I spoke and texted with Mario on Monday, explaining what I wanted done. I sent him some pictures. We agreed that he would show up on Thursday at 3pm. He showed up with a smile and the exact parts we needed. He converted an outlet to be able to plug in my car charger, and also converted another outlet to a 20 amp outlet. He did both in an hour and charged a very reasonable fee. I will be calling him to for more projects in the coming weeks.
By the way, he has decades of experience and knows exactly what he is doing.

Edward responded quickly to my Yelp request. He came out within 2 days (not an emergency) which was super helpful. We had a GFCI go bad in the kitchen and he replaced it. Very efficient. Really nice guy too. Would hire again.
