Best Heater Installation in San Jose CA
The Good: Service with Victor
Victor came on estimate day to get an idea of what needed to be done to install a video doorbell camera and floodlight for the backdoor. I ended up not needing setup for the doorbell, so only the camera with floodlight was setup. He did the job well in about 1.5 hrs, which is what I expected.
The Bad: Customer Service and Scheduling
I originally messaged the business to get a quote and estimate for how much the job would cost. My misunderstanding that when they come to give an estimate, they actually charge by the hour instead of it being a 5-10 min visit like other companies. I obliged to pay Victor for the visit, but was not expecting to.
Scheduling for the actual job was a fiasco. I was looking to schedule a late morning appt, but could not be promised a time frame as they seem to schedule jobs after each other rather than by time. I chose to do an 8 am for a more guaranteed time per Marcie.
Come day of appt (Tue, Sep 6 as noted in the screenshot), I hadn't heard from Victor by 8:15 so I sent a message and called at 8:30. I'm guessing Nadav answered, but he said that my appt was for Wed, Sep 7. Instead of apologizing for the scheduling error, he said that they get a lot of inquiries on Yelp so they get mixed up and they prefer to call for established customers. They never notified me of that.
Ok so now it's Wed at 8 am (also in screenshot) and Victor still has not shown up by 8:35 am. I called and said that if he did not show up by 8:45, then I would have to cancel the appt. Victor got here at 8:44. So much for a guaranteed time.

I needed an outdoor outlet installed on my house. Nick from Electrica immediately stopped by for an estimate. The quote was very fair so I decided to have the job done right away. He did great work and was a pleasure to do business with! I will happily reach out to him for any further electrical work!

Our 14 year old Thermador refrigerator, which has probably never been serviced, stopped cooling. I bid Fuse on Yelp around 11pm, and I kid you not, I received a reply within 10 minutes. 10 minutes later, I had someone scheduled to come out the next day. Costas came out and diagnosed the problem, a failed inverter, and the dust needed cleaning. Amazingly enough he had the replacement part already with him. We now have a working fridge again. He was very knowledgeable and also explained where to change the water filter on the fridge. We had never bothered to find out (although we haven't seen or tasted any problem with the ice from the ice maker so far).
The repair cost was high for this brand, but hopefully we won't have to do this again for a while. And he showed where to clear the dust from accumulating. The accumulation of dust on the side of the box atop the fridge probably contributed to higher energy costs for us, so hopefully we'll see some savings on our PGE bill.

I just had a new circuit for A/C installed by Richard today. I found him by the word of mouth of a friend and also noticed the excellent reviews he has been getting. He held up his excellent reputations in his service today. He is right on time, and gave a honest opinion in pros and cons of different options I have. The drilling part was tougher than expected due to extra plywood used in construction. He has been patient, polite and telling jokes all along. It is a very pleasant experience and the service is well worth Five stars.

Dmitry was very responsive and provided a competitive quote onsite to install an L2 EV charging NEMA 14-50 outlet in my detached garage and draw a line from my house through the crawl space and backyard. He was professional, organized and a clear communicator so I felt comfortable I knew what he was doing. When I hired him, he came with his team the next day and completed the job as planned without any surprise. He kept good communication throughout the process and was receptive to questions and requests. I highly recommend him.

After browsing a long list of Tesla charger installers, I ultimately chose Fruitdale Electric. Within days of my initial contact, they visited my home and provided a quote, which was much faster than I expected.
On installation day, their technicians arrived promptly. They installed a Tesla gen 3 charger, surge protection, and ran electrical wiring through my attic to the opposite side of the house. Despite the terrible weather at the time, they delivered flawless work.
The location of the charger was a challenge due to the tight space, and I had anticipated conduit running outside of my house. However, they exceeded my expectations and executed an incredibly clean installation with no visible wires or conduits, leaving just a Tesla charger on the wall exactly where I wanted it. Most importantly, my car now charges at a rate of over 40mph, a significant improvement from the previous rate of 4mph.

John (owner? of Dalcon) upgraded my 49 year-old property by adding GFCI switches, new lights, proper grounding, new panel box, etc. He responded to an emergency call on weekend. His team showed up on-time, finished on-time, even pitched in to fix my emergency (I had to pay overtime, but it was fair.) I had called several electricians before I selected Dalcon: one never showed up, one said he was too busy to do the work (this was back in May '07), and another one gave me a quote nearly double of Dalcon's quote. That's my experience...

I asked Chuck to come by and fix a couple of our external doors that were not installed correctly. He gave me his availability (via text, which is hugely helpful for me at work) and we worked out a time to have him come by. I met him at my home and went to work leaving him to do the job (he was right on-time per appt). When done he texted me pics and videos of the work done. Bottom line: Chuck is the guy to call when you need a handyman. I will definitely use him again and appreciate his customer service.
Thanks Chuck!!

Called LHP Electric and shared with them via Whatsap what we needed done. They gave us an estimate immediately. They then setup an appointment for the following day. The electrician was on time and did a great job, cleaned up after himself and explained everything we needed to know. If or when we need a Electrician in the future we will call LPH again!

Dan helped us install our Tesla wall charger for our model Y this morning. He was super professional and efficient. He got it done within an hour, I paid him via venmo so the whole transaction was in and out!
I would highly recommend Bay Area maintenance for future services! Thanks Dan!

We were pretty unsatisfied with this install. We booked a new HVAC through Costco but were pretty disappointed in the execution. It's been two months since the day they started, and we are still having them come fix things before we can get the inspection. We were without heat for days during a heat wave, because they didn't have parts they needed. (Why didn't they know what they needed before they started?) Then they needed more parts and we had to wait another month. They cut the wiring to our drip irrigation/landscaping and put it back together wrong, which we didn't figure out until half of our garden died from not getting watered. They put the metal pieces on our artificial turf while they were installing which burned parts of the grass which now looks awful. They've taken no responsibility for any of these errors, and claimed they couldn't have been responsible for the burned grass even though it wasn't there the day before the install and then it was. They put the thermostat in a new and very odd place without calling me at work to discuss it first (in between a picture frame and a door jam in a very visible area) and said they'd move it but of course it would damage the wall.. Ugh. Just overall very not slick, not responsive, not responsible for their screw-ups, and not competent.
I'm not sure why Costco uses them. :(

Don't waste your time and money with this company!!! The owner, Brian, initially asked for photos of the exterior sides of my house where I wanted the three Ring cameras installed. After receiving the requested photos, he quoted me $1,800 over the phone which includes redoing a Ring system that was previously installed by another electrician. Then, I asked if he can come over to see exactly where and how we wanted them installed, and he did. However, during the walk-through appointment, he took pictures of the mentioned redo project, sent and texted it to someone while arrogantly smirked. In the midst of conveying our wishes, he constantly looked on his phone, texting and smirking, which was extremely rude and unprofessional. Then, he gave us a verbal quote that is higher than what he originally quoted me during our phone conversation. It is now, $2,300! At the end of the appointment, he told us that he'll send us a final written estimate for the entire project and left his business card. Little did we know, he had no intentions on working on the project and left us hanging. It's been a 3-4 weeks and we never heard back from him. Honestly, we would have hired this man and proceeded from there, but he couldn't even make a courtesy call to inform us he's not interested. Brian has no word of honor and no concept of what it is to be a professional and business owner. Go elsewhere if you want someone who is professional and still has human compassion, rather than someone who has a superiority complex (like he's the only qualified individual to perform the task on hand) and whose only objective is to gain profit!!!

Contacted Sepanta on a Sunday to install two new wired boxes for new ceiling fans in two rooms. He responded quickly and was able to come out on a Sunday within one hour of contact. He came out and did a quick job of installing the new boxes for the ceiling fans. Great response and very professional. Thank you for accomadating us at the last minute.

The folks at Pacific Coast were complete professional from start to finish of the job. The outcome of the work done solved the problems I was having within the house. All of the technicians that showed up for the job were timely and clear on what is being done.
Overall this was a great experience even though the inspection process by the city is something I wouldn't want to go through again but it was at no fault of Pacific Coast.
