Best Electrical Panel Installat… 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

After reaching out to several electricians to have a light fixture installed, and a TV mounted, I gave Fearghal @McEleney Electric a call. I am so glad I didn't go with 'Joe Moe' off Amazon, or another electrician. I got a same day visit from Fearghal; the job was superbly completed, and very reasonably priced. Moreover, Fearghal went the extra mile to replace all the electric outlets in my condo with the baby-safe kind, at no extra cost. I've never had such great service! Fearghal is professional, cleans up after himself (I love that), and does an excellent job. Highly recommend.

My wife and I just moved to Berkeley and we needed to have some electrical work done (including a service upgrade).  I reviewed the proposed scope of work with two separate electricians and asked for estimates.

Jothi of Redwood Electric was the first electrician I met with.  He was very much a 'can do' guy.  Aside from a couple of alternatives and recommendations that he provided, he didn't foresee any problems with anything we wanted to have done.  I then had a second electrician (who scored VERY high on Yelp) come out to do the same.  He was a great guy, but his company seemed very busy and he brought up issues/problems with around 30% of the things we wanted to do, There isn't enough attic access here,  You'll have to hire a contractor to repair the walls where we'll need to rip in, etc., etc.  Jothi's price came in and it was considerably less than I was expecting.  The second electrician's price was pretty slow in arriving so I told him not to bother, that we had decided to go with Jothi.  I honestly was a little nervous at the prospect that perhaps the second electrician was more of a realist.

Now that Jothi has completed his work, we are soooo glad that we decided to go with him.  He is very mild-mannered and professional.  He did all of his work with great finesse.  One example was where we asked him to relocate our thermostat.  The other electrician prepped us for some pretty major wall patching we would have to do following his work.  I came home from work one night to see that Jothi had already installed the thermostat in the new spot with only a tiny pin-hole remained where it was previously.  Wall patching?  No, just a little dab of spackle.  He went above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions with pre-purchasing all of the high-quality fixtures as needed, making trips to the building department, and coordinating with the building inspectors.

If you're looking for a honest, conscientious, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced electrician, you won't go wrong with Redwood Electric.  Jothi is a great guy, and amazing electrician, and now, our new friend.

Our lights were flickering like crazy.    John diagnosed the problem over the phone and sent PGE out to fix the problem (which was a corroded outside wire).    He knows his stuff.  Thanks John.

I just got a plug-in electric car and needed a stand-alone charger installed next to my driveway. Natalie gave me a great price when I asked for an estimate, and even though I threw her a couple curveballs during the process, she stuck to that estimate.

She got all the permits the city required, and dealt with them for the inspection that was needed at the end. I didn't know about any of this but she did and took care of all of it.

Natalie was prompt and did the work quickly without sacrificing any care. I couldn't be any happier. I had estimates that were twice as high as what Natalie charged. But I don't think I could be any more pleased than I am. I would recommend Natalie and Valencia Electric for any job.

I filled out the Yelp request form for new business/projects. T&H only replied with a phone number telling me to call. I asked why they didn't review all the data I submitted on the Yelp form instead of making me call them and the owner replied saying I had too many typos. Way to insult your customers instead of owning up to being too busy (or lazy?) to actually put forth some effort for new business.
I can't rate them on their work because I won't hire them. I can't rate them on their prices because they wouldn't provide them.

Fuata Electric came as a recommendation from a friend and we're glad to have worked with them! Dave, Mario, and Justin took care of all our electrical needs (making sure everything is to code) at the cafe, and then some. They got things done when they said they would even in freezing and rainy days. Incredibly professional and reliable!

Unlike many commercial contractors we've bumped into, Dave and team work fast, gives you advice on how to save on costs, and easy to talk to! I think they have fair pricing and great service. Hope to work with them again when we open our next shop :)

I only know Rick through correspondence, which I am so grateful for, because he has just saved me a ton of money.

All I needed was very easy swap for 1 light in my small commercial studio, and if it wasn't for Rick's recommendation I could have easily been swindled by an expensive electrician rather than just using a handyman that Rick so honestly led me in the direction of.  

He responded to my correspondence quickly and honestly, which is more than I can say for the other dozen or so electricians I contacted through Yelp.

Thanks for your recommendation Rick!  You're a straight up, good business contractor, and it really sets you apart from your competition!

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.

Lucas is excellent, very knowledgeable, good communication throughout the entire project from ordering time line to install. The team was very clean, organized and did a great job installing my generator. We look forward to continuing using Lucas at Fitch electric for all our electrical needs.

Our florescent light fixture in the kitchen stopped working. Jaime said he could could come by this afternoon after another job and check it out. Approached the job in a systematic way. Then  went to get the part and installed it. He was efficient, focused and took care in doing the installation of the ballast. It was great. I would have had to wait one or two days for others I called and we needed this done today.

On initial instalation they burned my grass when removing the old AC unit. I had to find someone to fix it.  Then they charged me for a service plan and never executed on it.  Never called and never came out.  They did offer the following year free of charge but this is where it gets worse. On the first inspection/visit the technician was told that I was getting a message on the thermostat that the UV lightbilb needed to be changed.  He said that it was an issue with the seal which he fixed and said that it  would clear the message. I received the same notification a week later.  The new technician said that the prior tech was wrong and that nothing needed to be done and just to reset the useless notification for next year. Really??  Asked for management to call....que crickets...

I went to the garage yesterday and the panel is completely bowed and most of my cool air is now in the garage.  Someone simply installed the panel incorrectly and instead of fixing ot they used silver tape to remedy their lazy work.  Clearly not a remedy as the AC is not sirculating properly .  Asked yesterday again for a call from management and still nothing. What a joke.  Spent 18k for a new heating and AC unit but they can't be bothered to stand by their promises or work.

I wonder how much of my PG&E bill is related to their lazy work.

Awesome service from start to end! I had a bit of a tricky ask for the folks at Jade Electric (increasing size of sub panel and running 2 dedicated high amp circuits for a washer and dryer), keep in mind this is in a 1920's building. They killed it! Assessment & quote were complete within 1 week and the job was scheduled then completed within the following 2 days.  In total we had 5 guys on site at varying times and each one was kind and very professional.  All patch work was completed and well done.  I would HIGHLY recommend Jade Electric to anyone needing electrical work done in their home.

Ray the owner came out to give us an estimate to install a new Sub Panel in our garage. He was courteous, on time and understood what we needed without breaking the bank.

Jarrod and Ryan were the electrical technicians who came to install our panel. They were awesome! Friendly and happy personalities - They explained everything that needed to be done - checked in with us to see if we had any concerns and great to work with. I will definitely use Reyff Electric again, and have recommended them to our friends and family.

Micah is awesome, I love that he texts me back so quickly. We've used him on about 5 different homes for work and he is our go to electrical vendor. He always gets it done for us and does it quickly. Since we are getting bids for clients, I always have to get 2 others in addition to Micah's but he comes in lowest every time.

I work as property manager for a company and those days I was in San Jose, Oscar is a detailed, experienced and reliable technician. On the day of the quotation, I showed him several areas where we had no power. He immediately inspected the fusebox). He explained how a fuse might look operational but actually be faulty. It took him some time to remove the cover and test all the fuses. Eventually, he identified and corrected the problem. Suddenly, we had power in those rooms! And we hadn't even agreed to hire him yet! I had some creative lighting / electrical projects and Oscar completed them with much intelligence and patience. He and his assistant Miguel were polite, clean, and efficient.

Efficient, knowledgeable, reasonably priced.  The owner answered my call Friday night and was at my house by 8 am Saturday morning. He was able to figure out and fix my problem in an hour.

Again I used mike. He really is a great guy. Great electrician. He always tries to come right away if possible.
