Best in San Jose CA

Cross Electrical was my go-to electrician when the Cross family used to own it.  It should be noted that now they have sold their services to Thomas and Edith.  Of the Cross family, only Jerry stays behind as one of their electricians, but Jerry did tell me he is planning to retire soon.

Over one month ago I noticed I had an issue where my refrigerator would be going out at night.  At first thinking it was the refrigerator having issues, I soon noticed it was half the house.  I called Cross Electrical and Jerry came out two different times but unfortunately could not diagnose the problem.  

I eventually called PG&E Thanksgiving day, and they diagnosed the issue as a tree root outside entangling with the live wire, which effectively tugged the line and destroyed my outside panel.  

To be fair, Edith was very responsive on Thanksgiving Day saying her husband, Thomas, the new owner, would be out the next day to see the problem and figure out a solution.

Thomas saw the destroyed panel and told me he would try to do research on how to fix it, but with supply chain issues it might take awhile.  I understood.

I heard no word from any of them through the weekend and Monday.  On Tuesday I tried texting Edith, and there was no response.  I called the office but it was as if they disappeared.

I called Thomas on his cell Thursday and he responded he was still looking into it and would get back to me shortly.  That was over a month ago; I never heard from him again.

If Thomas had told me from the beginning we just needed to replace the panel, then fine, I would have been okay with it.  Because he never gave me a definitive answer, and then ghosted me, I wasted nearly two weeks and was effectively homeless through Thanksgiving.  Because of the time it took to contact a new electrician and plan out a solution, I also could not be home for Christmas.

I understand this was an unusual circumstance, but because of what occurred I could not be at home for the holidays, and it was just another ugly end to such an ugly year.

I certainly wish the best of luck to anyone who continues to reach out to Cross Electrical; you're going to need it.  I wish them all the best of luck with their new owners.

Gomez Electric was very responsive on short notice.  Another electrician canceled same day and Gomez Electric was more than happy to come and assess the problem, same day.  He arrived exactly on time and identified the problems in a very short amount of time.  He was diligent, transparent and professional.  I would recommend this company to take care of any electrical issues you may have.  He was fair and worked to save money for us not make money selling us service we didn't need!

Dave came over to my house to take a look at some ceiling fans which were noisy.  I made some quick and easy adjustments to them and now they are quiet.  He did a great job.

Bob is great and really helpful! I called him about potentially doing some work on the house and he was immediately helping diagnose on the phone. His tips actually saved us some work as he was able to help solve some circuitry issues we had. Honest and knowledgable!

Power went out to half my house, centered around the bedrooms.  I contacted Jose and he arrived in less than 24 hours.  Communication and professionalism were unrivaled.  His team troubleshot the issue quickly and repaired the faulty junction box.  Quality of work was exceptional. I'm going to be contacting him soon for some more work as he and his team fantastic!

I got electrical work done from here and Arash did a really great job. Took the time out to answer all my questions. Always on time on all of the appointments. Very friendly guy. Come to this place if you need good electrical service. You won't be disappointed.

Gustavo and his team did an amazing job fixing the recessed lighting in my living room and kitchen. They did the whole work of fixing 9 cans and 1 bathroom fan in just a day. Their rates are fixed and service n quality is best. I am extremely fortunate to have worked with Laser and Son.

Found the problem and fixed it perfectly.  No power in both bathrooms and non-related wiring shorting in garage.  Very professional.

Brian is awesome!!!  Past work he's done for us included installing a wall heater, exhaust fan and new lighting in our bathroom; another job was redoing all of our kitchen lighting; additional work included adding outside lights.  All of these jobs included great suggestions from him, were done promptly and left us completely satisfied.  Having had great service from him and his workers in the past we recently called on him to do a rush job involving installation of an outdoor chair lift.  He was booked solid but made time for us on his way home from work!!  We feel very lucky to have found Brian and Alpine Mountain Electric.

We had an issue with a breaker on our electric panel and a general contractor referred us to Rick at B & B Electric.  Rick came out quickly and was able to diagnose the problem and offered several solutions.  Because we had a fairly dangerous Zinsco Panel, we decided to replace and upgrade the entire electric panel as well as relocate it.  Rick is fast and professional.  His work is very clean and attractive and he scheduled and met with the city inspector for our permit.  He even worked with our home warranty provider to help cover some of the repairs.

A few weeks later when I was having issues with my pool pump, he came out quickly and diagnosed and repaired the electrical system for the pool.  His repair included changing the voltage of the pumps which should reduce the cost of operation.  Very smart!

I highly recommend Rick and B&B.  Professional, clean, and fast.  On top of that, he is a very, very nice guy.

Cole came out to our house early last month after we had a series of incidents where our circuit breakers kept tripping. He made a minor fix, though didn't seem to get to the root of the problem. Charged us a reasonable sum, $210, and said if the problem recurs to call him and he'll pop right out.

Three weeks later, the problem recurred (though in 2 different rooms). We called him at 8:30 in the morning on a Friday and didn't get a callback. Called his cell phone at 12:30 and he answered while on a job in San Jose. He remembered us and said he'd be out to take a look in 2 hours.

Two, three, four hours passed and nothing. At 4:30 I texted him, no response. At 5:30 I called him, no answer. At 5:45 he called me, but thought he was responding to someone else. Would he come out that evening, or the next day? Can't. I'm on an important job, he said.

Which told me everything about his priorities.

I've already had Eagle Electric do several jobs at our new place including a post close inspection, bringing items up to code, and various enhancement on the inside and outside.   They always have options depending on your budget.  Ed and Chris are patient competent and it is a pleasure working with them.  I'll be calling them for a third round of electrical projects soon.

Honest and quick service.Came ahead of time, responsive over Yelp.  Highly recommended.Will not hesitate to use their services in the future.

Francisco was amazing!! We were looking for a couple of estimates to get a new electrical line out in and he was busy but made time to see us with a day or two. He came at 7am to check out our home and did the work the following week by squeezing us in once we confirmed we could do it. He even gave us a a great referral for a plumber who we will now use movjng forward. Definitely recommend! His estimate was also hundreds lower than other businesses.

Eric and his assistant did an excellent job! Eric answered my call the first time I tried, and came out the same day. He was able to quickly analyze the issue and gave me a quote on the spot. He disconnected the dangerous work another service left incomplete, and after he left I noticed some of my lights didn't work. When I texted Eric about it, he can right back to my house... even at 7PM! The repair work was scheduled a few days later, and was done thoroughly at a great price. I will call E&J first now with all my Electrical and Plumbing jobs.

Esed replied to my Yelp request very quickly, and gave me concrete and actionable advice on how to proceed with my project. I would strongly recommend contacting him for your project, too!

Gus is the real deal. One night we had an Arc Fault Type BRAF breaker trip on us and half the house went dark. Gus came out the next day and quickly figured out the problem--two shabby, non-compliant light fixtures in our bedroom closets leftover from the previous owner. He removed both fixtures, capped the wires and installed cover plates. This was not an especially obvious problem as these arc fault breakers are very sensitive but Gus figured it out quickly and we had our electricity back ASAP.

All of that said, what I was most impressed by was the effort Gus made to try and talk us through the problem over the phone. Had it been a simple flip of a switch, we would have resolved our problem and Gus wouldn't have made a dime. Now THAT is honesty.

Had some issues with electrical outlets not working, and called Yevgeny.  He arrived on time, and expertly investigated and diagnosed the issue.  Furthermore, he helped fix my stovetop since a couple burners were not heating.  Great job!
