Best in San Jose CA

I asked Sam to fix two small things (faucet and a tile repair).  
He showed up within an hour and did a great job on both projects.  Highly recommend.

ELS electric was a lifesaver! I called them during the busy Thanksgiving week and they were able to come out the same day and fix my electrical problem! They were friendly and professional, and got the job done quickly. I was so thankful for them. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family

I was having an issue with my breaker and called Fitch. Lucas answered immediately and we were able to resolve the issue over the phone. I really appreciated the responsiveness and problem solving attitude.

I had a tough custom job that I needed tackled. Randy was the man! So kind and professional to say the least. The work that he did was so impressive! Clean work...I got great work! Did I mention the quality of the job?!? I recommend Mopia Electric to everybody!

For EV-proofing my home, I wanted a NEMA 14-50 outlet and while I didn't shop around for the best prices, Robert's seemed reasonable (and it is). What really sold me was his responsiveness and attentiveness to my needs. I also liked the fact that he worked for himself and not a big competitor. He made himself available to me if anything were to go wrong and was available within two business days. Work took less than two hours with barely a blip of power.

Antonio did a good job in  installing the sliding door. The price was very reasonable. I would difinitely call he back on my future projects. He has my confidence. I give him six stars

Juan took care of fluorescent to LED conversion for a few light fixtures in my garage. The work was done promptly, and for a very reasonable price.

I contacted BAM to install a crystal chandelier in my living room. It is easy and smooth to schedule an appointment over the phone. Dan is the electrician and he shows up in time. Dan was extremely helpful and professional. He checked the weight limit of the ceiling to make sure everything is right. The original screws in the package can only hold up to 50 lbs. Dan replaced them with some screws that can hold up to 100 lbs. My crystal chandelier requires some assembling work. Dan managed to assemble the parts and install it quickly. Everything is perfect. I enjoy this service and plan to ask Dan to install another chandelier in the master bedroom.

Just had another great experience with the Got Watts Co. Every step of the process was seamless. Shelby booked the estimate. Jeremy did the estimate and was very thorough in providing options for installing a 220 outlet in the garage. Ray did the install and was punctual as well as courteous.

They're professionalism make them very easy to recommend.

Hancock was wonderful.  He called and was able to come to the appointment earlier than originally planned. He checked the outlets and told us why the circuit breaker kept popping every time we turned on our microwave.  Job cost less than expected. I'd use him again.

***UPDATE***
So a few months after I'd left the messages and wrote the 1-star review, Steve called me. He apologized and explained that he'd been dealing with some family issues. He had also let go one of the workers who had done my electrical. After making an appointment to come out the following week, I sent him my list of things that needed to be fixed, detailed in my original review.

As promised, Chris came out on Monday. He was on time--even early--friendly and courteous. Chris made some recommendations on how to fix some of the problems, did the work, and also saved the day with some quick thinking. He also changed out a motion detector switch to a regular one even though it was out of scope.

Steve himself came out and we smoothed things over. I was happy to have the work completed quickly and even talked to him about coming back to install a new light over my dining table.

Although I would have preferred the work had been done properly originally, Steve takes pride in his work and I know he felt bad that there had been issues.

I understand when family matters come up, and I told him as much. However, I do think he should have left an outgoing voice message explaining that he was taking time off and would not be returning calls for an extended amount of time.

I was actually about to hire another electrician to fix all the problems, so I would been pretty upset if I had done so only to have Steve contact me afterward.

***ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW***

My initial experience with Steve and John, who were recommended by my contractor, was good. However, I've now left two messages this year for Steve asking him to come back and fix small issues that came up within weeks of my moving back into my remodeled home: canned light went out, dimmer makes a buzzing noise, smoke alarm fell off my master bedroom ceiling. And the big one: fans in both baths come on when heat/air does and not necessarily when they should. I.e., when I'm showering and the bathroom steams up.

I'm sure all of these problems are easy to fix, so I'm frustrated that I've left two very polite messages (one on Steve's cell phone; one at the shop) and still haven't received a call back in over two weeks. I spent more than $10k with Southwest and thought Steve and John were very professional and helpful during the remodel. I think it's very unprofessional now for Steve to not follow up on these issues that I've documented through date-stamped photos.

I think it's interesting that the majority of these 5-star reviews for Southwest are from people who don't write many reviews. This can be a sign of business owners asking for favorable reviews in return for providing a discount. If you're researching electricians or any other businesses on Yelp, I recommend doing your homework. Just because the business has 5-star reviews does not mean they truly are a 5-star business.

Michael fixed our AC problem! Finally called Bellows after the guy who installed for us could not get things fully working on our mini split. Michael worked quickly and got it figured out. Thank you!

I needed work done at my business and the existing electric was a real mess.  Jason came in and cleaned everything up, updated all of my lighting and made the space functional for my business.  He and his team were always prompt, neat and courteous and their work was top notch.  I would highly recommend Oak Electric to others!

Jon from JMC Electrical was awesome.  Jon and his team were organized and efficient.  He was a pleasure to work with and a really nice guy as well.  He explained the process of hooking up our hot tub in great detail, and made it so easy for us to understand.  I really appreciate how well they communicate through text and email, and how professional of a job they do.  I use them again for sure.

I hired an electrician to come check out some outlets that stopped working after a storm. I know nothing about this sort of thing, but I knew well enough to check the basics (breakers, fuses, etc). Well, apparently I didn't know enough!
I was easily able to schedule an appointment and the technician was here on time. Sal arrived, and after checking out several outlets, he knew what the problem was and quickly fixed it. Everything is working well! He noticed we were military veterans and compensated us for that. I'd never call another electrician. From now on, we will use Sal. Thanks so much!

We installed recessed LED lights throughout our house.  The whole experience dealing with Brian and the quality of his were excellent.

He responded to emails promptly, was on time for appointments and gave us a quote that I thought was reasonable.  With the other yelp reviews I went with Brian for the project.

He and the other guy he works with did a great job, covering everything up, being on time every day of work and leaving the work area when they left.  We had Brian pull a permit for the job and he schedule the inspections and everything went well.

We are happy customers.

I needed to change the outlet of my condo from 110 to 220 and they did a good job. I will definitely recommend Clever Electric.

Francisco sent his crew back to retest the system, found out that the micro inverters were the issue. Since they are still under warranty  the manufacturer will replace all 24 micro inverters for me. It will take 2-4 weeks for them to ship. But for now I have 3 new inverters working that Francisco was kind enough to let me use it while waiting for the replacement.

AVOID AT ALL COST! What a joke. This owner shows up in sandals, doesn't have the right tools and has to borrow mine. He did a hack job in my garage. I needed an outlet installed with a switch. He hacked my dry wall, buried the electrical lines in the drywall and filled it in with joint compound! I'm not an electrician, but that does not seem
Up to code? WTH. I wasted $350 and will have to pay a real electrician to come back and unscrew the work that this idiot did. His van doesn't now have a contractor license number either! I can only blame myself for even letting this guy do the work.
