Excellent Job from Robert. Very professional. I bought a new generator to my office due to recent electric power outages. The generator needed to be connected to multiple devices. Robert gave few brilliant idea and wired all the cables from the ceiling and installed few outlets. Very reasonable pricing and if you are looking for a professional job to be done he is your guy!!!

Jim was the first responder after working hours for my small project to repair a burnt outlet. We quickly scheduled the time and he showed up punctually with efficient communication. We will sure to use him again if we have electric problems.

Arsen did the electrical wiring for our new generator. They were prompt and efficient in the proposal stage and arrived as expected to do the work, they had a great price, and did the job professionally. I will call them back for any electrical needs.

Robert did a fantastic job at installing our Tesla EV charger. The quote was very reasonable and installation didn't take too long. The final product looks great, clean, and all-around great. Would absolutely hire him again for any of our electricity needs.

Steve is a great electrician and has very fair pricing. We had a number of projects where I needed help including adding a 240V outlet in the garage for an electric car. He came out on time and got everything done efficiently and we were very happy. I would recommend Steve to anybody looking for an electrician.

I prospected a few electricians and proposals didn't have huge variations but Dave stood out in his holistic and professional approach. We talked over options and a couple days later received the quote and scheduled the work. He arrived on time, finished on schedule and did an outstanding job. Our home is older but he did a great job of working with the idiosyncrasies you'd expect of a dated place. Also loved that he kept the area clean and made it a priority to communicate with me at every meaningful step. Recessed Lighting makes our place much more inviting now.

Wow, wow, wow! Esed is simply an amazing, super knowledgeable, highly skilled, and honest electrician. I am utterly impressed with his level of skill and professionalism.
About a month ago, we found ourselves in an unsafe situation after hiring a contractor who did now know a lot about electrical work. To make a long story short, we had a small fire--that got me to call Esed. He quickly diagnosed the problem, gave us a reasonable estimate, and then completed the work in a professional and timely manner, all while explaining everything in a non-condescending manner. Now we are safe! He even gave us advice on other work that was not done properly by another person.
Then this evening some lights went out in our kitchen, and resetting the breakers didn't help. I called Esed and he was literally in our house in 10 minutes! I am not kidding you. 15 minutes later he had fixed everything. For someone of his abilities, he could charge an arm and a leg and I'm sure people would pay that, and yet his fees are very reasonable.
Some people are extremely skilled at what they do, taking pride in their work. Some people are extremely professional in the way they deal with customers. Esed is the best of both worlds. I can't thank him enough!

Ross, the owner of CJ Bradley came and installed two ceilling fans in our home. He was early to his appointment, which worked out great, was able to install quickly and work around my daughter and I while we were here. We will definitely call him in the future.

Really happy that we hired Ken. We had him do a service upgrade and rewire all the outlets/switches/fixtures for half of our house. It was a lot of work, but he was able to start pretty soon after he gave us the quote and worked straight until the job was complete. He was very professional (as was his assistant) and very easy to work with. I believe his rates are in line with what others are charging, but you know you'll get good work with him. He maintained great communication during the job, letting us know how it was progressing, which was very reassuring. We're going to need the other half of our house rewired and will definitely call him again.

I have used this company for years and am pleased to have this opportunity to share my opinion on Yelp. Zack has done everything from large jobs - changing panels - at my business locations - to smaller jobs at my home - and I have always been more than satisfied with consistently excellent work as well as reasonable rates. Recently I needed phone lines run in some of my business locations. I called ATT first - out of habit - and they said it was too involved! Zack did what ATT couldn't do - and did the work perfectly. THAT is impressive.

I called Bahram for a quick estimate to replace a toggle switch with a zwave switch as i was unable to figure out the neutral wire. Since the work to be done was very minimal, he helped me out by asking me to send pictures and review before assisting me over the phone. It was very helpful and i was able to get the whole thing working in under 10 minutes ! Appreciate the kind gesture and will always reach out to him for any other future electrical needs.

Edit: Geoff, your gaslighting response just goes to show the type of person you are. We both know how this actually went and your version is just complete fiction. Have a nice life.
Terrible experience with Williams Electric.
I moved to a new house and had several ungrounded 2-prong outlets that I wanted to upgrade to grounded 3-prong outlets as I wanted to put in some electronic equipment. I asked how much that would cost, they quoted a price, I booked the day.
The appointment goes fine enough - it took a couple calls to confirm the appointment and they charged more than other electricians had quoted, but hey, the reviews were great and I wanted to support a small local business.
Fast forward a few weeks and I have an amp blow out, so I start investigating. Figure it might be a faulty amp, or a bad power cord, who knows. Took the amp in for service and they asked if the outlets were grounded properly - I said yes, I just hired someone to do that. Turns out after buying some equipment to check the outlets myself that Geoff never actually grounded the outlets.
I emailed to explain what happened and offered up that I maybe my equipment was bad or maybe there was something I was missing but I wanted to just figure out what may have happened, and was told GFIs are legal - okay fair enough, not sure why we're talking about legality, I just want my gear to not break. So I asked again, sorry I'm not totally clear, the original order was for 3-prong grounded outlets, are these not grounded? And the response was GFIs don't have to be grounded to be legal.
Okay so we're clear now that that the outlets weren't grounded.
Maybe email isn't ideal, so I picked up the phone to call and spoke with Rhonda, who told me we installed GFIs because they're better and more sensitive, also you'd have to rip all your walls out to do install a ground wire - okay fair enough, but given I specifically asked for my outlets to be grounded when hiring you, seems like this could have been explained to me at some point. I would've ripped out the walls if that's what it would've taken to do this properly.
But most importantly, I just want to make sure I don't lose thousands of more dollars on gear, and they're telling me the GFI is better so I ask again to clarify, if the GFI isn't the problem perhaps it's something else. That would be good to know so I can keep investigating the true cause. The response ultimately was you probably need to run an actual ground wire.
I asked how much it'll cost for him to come back to do that, and the response was a brusque too busy and don't want this on me, nothing I did was illegal, you can contact your insurance.
Well, up until then I was chalking this up to a lack of communication and was trying to work out a solution. But that response is rude, unprofessional, and unacceptable. You didn't do the job you were hired to do originally, and even though that's incredibly frustrating on my end, I came at you politely and you decided to respond by worrying about blame and running away.
No one accused you of installing anything illegal - as you repeatedly made sure to make clear - I was even offering to PAY YOU AGAIN to come back to do the job as originally discussed! You've pointed out that what you did is up to code - I didn't hire you to do whatever you want to bring it up to code - I specifically asked about getting my outlets grounded. Remarkably unhelpful that you've spent this entire time just trying to make it clear it's not your fault and that you don't want any blame - no one blamed you for anything! - we could've just easily called this a miscommunication and you could've come back for a second job. But instead you decided to be a jerk about it.
I guess I'll hire someone else to come clean up this up. You might be a talented electrician but you clearly don't know how to treat people with decency.
To anyone reading: they're great if you want to pay above market to get treated like dirt. So I guess if you're looking for that, hire Williams Electric!
