Best Recessed Light Repair in San Francisco CA

Quickest, friendliest response, great user ratings, owner German super communicative and responsive, price was fair, staff super fast and friendly. Unusual excellence

I have been using Fearghal for my electrical work for the past few years.  He is very fast, reasonably priced, and also a super friendly, helpful guy.  On one visit, I swear he knocked about 7 items off of my to-do list in about an hour, from hanging a heavy chandelier single-handedly to figuring out why a light, doorbell, etc didn't work and fixing them.  And the last time I saw him, I spotted a leak, and he diagnosed it and was able to get a tile guy to my house ASAP and fix it over a holiday weekend -- not usually in an electrician's job description, but that's the kind of guy he is.  Total lifesaver.

I had the perfect experience with John from Brookline Electric. Found him on Angie's List  on Thursday morning right after our closet light fixture broke and I needed someone that day to fix it. John said he could be there between 1 and 3 that afternoon. He sent me a text at 2 o'clock letting me know he was on his way and then again when he arrived at my building. Super professional and friendly, John had the problem fixed in a few minutes. The Brookline website has a photo of John and his car so you know exactly who is showing up, which is nice. His card is on our fridge and he is our go to electrician from now on. Mahalo John & Brookline.

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.  

Hard to ask for more out of a local business

Jaime responded quickly and checked 3 ceiling non-functioning remote controlled ceiling fans and determined that the receivers were the problem, so that I can now decide whether to repair or replace. He also installed a new bathroom exhaust fan I had purchased as a replacement. Reasonable rates.

We needed help and Reyff Electric came to the rescue. They installed a subpanel and 20+ outlets in our new retail space. Every person we dealt with from the owner (Ray) to the supervisor and installers were amazing! A great, local, family-owned business that gives back to the community. We highly recommend Reyff Electric!!

Our dryer stopped working all of a sudden, so we had to hang our clothes to dry in the backyard (like the good ol' days) I've had just about enough with the hanging clothes outside ordeal, and cause the sun barely was coming out from behind the clouds (Daly City weather ‍) that I did some research and stumbled upon CA Electrical Group 24/7. I got a call back and was able to get a free consultation the same day of the call back. Knock on the door and I greet Omri, I tell him what's going on and within 3-4 mins he found the problem. I was lucky cause the part that needed to be replaced he had one hanging out in his truck. Soon as he replaced the breaker in the electric box, he went to my laundry area and the sound of my dryer turning on was music to my ears! I'm glad I found this company and Omri and his team are lifesavers for this mama and her loads of laundry! Highly recommend and we definitely will be keeping in touch!

We have had Miro and his crew from BV Electric come out 2x now for different jobs, and they've done excellent work each time.  He sticks to his quotes, with no surprises or gotchas.  They show up on time as promised and do a great job.  Highly recommended!

My dryer wasn't working and when I found out it wasn't the machine but, the lack of power, I was feeling anxious about how much an electrician would cost! So I started to research Yelp and ended up with Valary because they were still open when I called (after 3pm) and I got an appt the next morning at 8AM! I was told up front what the rates and minimums were (1 hour charge) and they also asked me how I found them and thanked me on the phone before my appointment.

Valary showed up and was very pleasant and professional. He explained what was wrong with the power--the jaws on my outlet was loose and needed to be replaced. He also discovered that the connection on breaker panel for the dryer was damaged also:( The panel can be very expensive to replace (over $1,000) but, he reconfigured the breakers using the spare slot so, I ended up only paying for the one hour + parts--whew! And thank you Yelpers for all your reviews to help me avoid a bad experience and find a good fit!

Highly recommended for the great service and knowledgeability!!!

My landlord found this company after having a horrible really bad experience with another company, my apartment had major power issues that left my family without power an having to do the camping lifestyle due to not having any power at all to my house it was a very difficult time and frustrating but soon as this company got involved with my power problems things were quickly taken care of quickly im beyond  extremely pleased with this company and they were always helpful in the process and kept in touch by phone an they got the job done in a fast an were so quick an took care of the other steps that were  involved in getting the power back on again this is a professional company that has awesome knowledge of what is needed to get the job done correctly, I can't express enough how This is a very good company to have as  things got  done in a timely manner so glad to have this company out an I feel safe in my place after the job was done. everything was fixed correctly thanks for such a wonderful experience

I asked Mario to help with installing several smart light switches and a couple replacement electrical outlets. Mario was easy to get ahold of over the phone and via text. We spoke on a Friday afternoon, and Mario agreed to come Sunday morning. Mario arrived on time and completed the project in a few hours for a reasonable price. I was satisfied with Mario's work and would call on him again.

Had a fairly urgent situation, power off to half the house, no rhyme or reason -- did all the normal things, flipped the breakers off and back on -- searched high and low for GFI plugs to do the same -- nothing seemed to work.  The only thing I could guess was that the breakers themselves were either come loose or were not working -- either way, I know that once the panel gets opened, I leave it to the professionals.  Darren came in, and within 10 minutes, had diagnosed the problem, replaced the breaker with a new set, and was leaving.  I was very impressed.  Will have him back again, to do something that wasn't urgent, hopefully!!!!!

Requested to put a 240V plug in our garage so I can plug in our Tesla charger. He did an amazing job. Highly recommended.

Borin responded to my Yelp message promptly and coordinated a time for a site visit to provide an estimate. He is very professional, courteous and friendly, and his estimate was by far the lowest I received. I appreciated that he was willing to work with me even though I wanted to do the majority of the work myself. He offered to assemble and install the ceiling fan but I told him I could do that, and just wanted the new switch to be wired.

The day we set up to work was perfect for me, and he gave me a window of between 8:00 am - 12:00 pm to do it in. His associate showed up in the company van first, but told me he had to wait for Borin, who didn't make it until just before 9:00. He did provide a courtesy call to explain that he would be late. I was concerned that this might mean they wouldn't be able to finish on time, but they worked quite efficiently and were done by 11:00. This is despite me having tons of questions about the process, and I have to commend Borin for his patience and knowledge of electrical wiring. He is a great teacher.

There were a couple of small changes to the work as quoted but this did not affect the price. For example, although I had much of the hardware (outlet boxes, switches, etc), and offered to use them, Borin offered (and preferred to use) his own boxes and switches, and we ended up needing to install another 15 Amp circuit in my panel (so that more lighting could be added in the future). Despite these additions, the project cost matched the estimate, which I very much appreciated.

I would definitely work with Boyes Electric again in the future.

RB Electric is a wonderful family electrical business - hire them!

My husband and I are remodeling our kitchen and we needed all new electrical. Our house is very old, from 1926 so it's cloth and tube.

We spoke with several companies and decided to go with RB Electic. The owner, Rigo, came out and walked us through what we needed. He is a pleasure to work with - clearly an expert at his craft and eager to provide a really good experience for us. We found his prices to be reasonable given the complexity of the work.

Rigo and his crew showed up on time and were ready to get started. Our job took an entire day and he had all of the materials (boxes, switches, etc) ready to go with him. They removed all of the old electrical and replaced it with new wiring and the correct boxes for the oven and fan hood. They worked very hard all day long and ask me a few questions along the way to make sure it was exactly what I wanted.

I've dealt with a lot of contractors over the years. Rigo and his crew are by far the best electricians I've ever worked with and we'll be hiring them again in the future. I highly recommend getting a quote from RB Electric and considering them for your electrical needs.

Michael fixed a faulty outlet for me the same day I contacted him.  Recently a socket in my house sparked when I put a plug in it.  My regular maintenance person (Richard Peltzman of RMS Maintenance Services) who has helped me enormously over the years, recommended the electrician, Michael Fairholm, with whom he's had excellent experiences in the past.  Michael was easy to reach!!  He uses both phone and email and I sent him an email.  He responded promptly (within less than one hour of sending the email) and even took the time to tell me in a phone message that he'd responded by email.  As it turned out, his response had gone into my spam, so it was good that he let me know about his email.  He came by and fixed the outlet later that the same day, so I didn't have to worry about a faulty outlet in my home.  He explained everything as he was fixing it, and gave a very fair price for the work. He provided a clear estimate before doing the work, and emailed a receipt for the work before he left.  He was very efficient, knowledgeable and capable.  I would certainly hire him again for any electrical work and highly recommend him.

Horacio and Edwin installed electrical outlets throughout my home today. They were on time, cleaned up after themselves, and most importantly checked to make sure each outlet was in working order. I have used Arc Electric several times now and I am always impressed with their ability to get the job done in a timely manner. I will always call them first, to take care of my electrical needs.....

We have a partial power outage in our house.  Alex came within 30 minutes, and correctly diagnosed the problem.  He also came in and installed a part on our roof needed to hold the wires securely.  The service was prompt, the prive was reasonable, and communications were clear.  Great service and I would recommend Alex to others.

I could not be happier with Straight Line TV Installations work! I was able to get an appointment to install 2 tvs. Jerrick did an incredible job and was an absolute perfectionist. I highly recommend!!!
