Best Solar Electric/PV System Installation in San Jose CA

I strongly recommend not using this company.  They came to install an EV charger, a job that should have taken half a day.  The installer showed up late and left the house twice to get parts.  He was gone for half of the day and left at the end of the day with the job incomplete, with long wires dangling from the side of my house, and with no communication.  He also installed the charger in a different location than we agreed and ran the conduit in a haphazard fashion, in a location other than what we agreed.  He also disconnect the ground for our Internet service, which was clearly marked as needing to remain connected.  Two other installers showed up the next day and they seemed more competent.  When I checked their work afterward, they had installed an old, used circuit breaker for the new circuit.  When I asked for it to be replaced, someone else came to swap the breaker, but installed the wrong amperage (which could have led to a fire!).

Alex came out today to fix my washing machine after I contacted the company through yelp this morning. I was so happy to find someone willing to come out on a holiday. The response time was super quick, he got to my house right on time and had it fixed within an hour. Reasonable prices, happy with the great service. Thanks!

Excellent and fast service! Loved working with James on my Nema 14-50 socket installation.

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.

Andrew and team were real professionals. Extremely punctual and got the job done within the timeframe.

I presented another quote which they said they will look into matching / bidding.

I appreciate that we came this far and you offered to bring it up to the owner.

Initially they presented reasons why the other bid cant be matched(out of area bid etc).

After we establshed that this quote qualifies for the criteria, it's extremely confusing that they started saying that they wont be able to price match.

Would have saved both of us quiet a bit of time going back and forth had they not gotten into the charade of price matching(they claim they will beat any quote by 5%).

Based on the other reviews they appear to be a great company. I however left thinking my encounter was a waste of time.

Five or Free Electrical Solutions were wonderful to work with. Sal came out and gave a quote for the work, he was professional and knowledgeable. Alex Gonzalez was the technician who moved my lighting fixture to be centered over my dining table. He was on time, polite and also very professional. The work was precise and he cleaned up after like it never happened. I would recommend this team for any electrical needs.

I highly recommend Zurc Power Solutions for all your solar needs. Francisco is very knowledgeable and can easily explain the intricacies of going solar. They installed our system 3 years ago and have kept in touch by monitoring our system to make sure everything is working properly.  I've referred him to friends and they are all very happy with their systems. Best of all, in this heat we can keep our house cool and we actually got money back at the end of the year.  It's easy to do. Just call Zurc Power Solutions and get your solar installed today.

I called yesterday and received a message within the hour that they could arrive this morning at 8:00. Jonathan Aceves was on time and very respectful. I explained the problem to him and he was able to fix my broken circuit within one hours time. Thank you Jonathan I truly appreciate you.

I had a hard to reach wiring for my guest room. A friend of mine referred him to me and I called them up after hours. Jay showed up promptly. He was professional and got the job done quickly without leaving any mess behind! I am pretty new to Yelp reviews but I think I will use more of this and JJ Electric service :-)

I wanted to replace & relocate my main panel with a 200A one before installing solar. End of Nov 2022 I got quotes from electricians referred by friends and also used Yelp's request-a-quote feature to get several quotes, including Five Or Free. Ultimately I went with Five Or Free to do the job and was pleased with the experience and results.

Jonathan first contacted me via Yelp, then talked over phone, and was helpful in the background through the project. Eric D came over to do the estimate and was really friendly/knowledgeable/professional. The estimate was the highest, but I was won over by the inclusion of some extra circuits I knew I'd need later, handling all permit-related work, and peace of mind knowing their high standards/guarantees.

Damell and Eddie did most of the work. New panel, new riser, moving the wiring from the old panel, new ground (had to run it across the house), and the additional circuits. They were friendly and worked hard. Tim came over for some small electrical followups i.e. moving sump pump off arc fault breaker juuuust in case.

There's another Eric who does permitting work who managed the PG&E and city communications + inspections, which went smoothly. He also did a lot of painting, weatherproofing, fixed a attic vent that was bent while installing the new riser, and a big list of other stuff I asked him about to make sure everything was clean and looked good at the end.

I really got a We'll keep working until it's perfect vibe from everyone throughout, which is what I was hoping for at their higher price point. It's now been a few months since they finished the project and my solar installation by Tesla went very smoothly with them connecting into the new panel.

I'd use Five or Free again for big projects or for a big bunch of smaller projects to take advantage of their project management / strong organizational support in addition to top quality work.

Gustavo gave a detail estimate. Came on time as scheduled, very punctual and professional. Installation of exhaust was done very neat and cleaned up after done. Job well done.

K is the man! He arrived timely (same day appointment within 2 hours of messaging him) and fixed everything. Kitchen outlets had an issue with the neutral and a bad GFCI outlet which he easily fixed. Highly recommended

Juan came to install my EV wall charger for my Tesla. 10000% recommend. Very honest, fast responses and patient - transparent prices and also very reasonable. I shopped around for pricing but other electricians couldn't commit without coming out or doing video calls and in person assessment, etc which was too much work for me. Juan looked at the photos I sent over messages, asked me the right questions and we got the pricing locked in, and he came by within the next 24 hrs and he installed the charger within 30 min!! Love working with honest, independent/small shops that don't have build in overhead costs and can just efficiently and cost effectively get the job done. Thanks again!!!

Norman is a very conscientious handyman and does a thorough and efficient job. His rates are reasonable, and he is a true professional.  Norman did a great job with installing all of the towel rods and train racks in our bathrooms.  He also provided solid recommendations for other jobs we were considering in the future.

Denis arrived promptly. He explained everything he was checking and found the problem (wiring issue in attic). He quoted me the price beforehand,  and that's what I paid.
He was professional, and I love that he put booties on over his shoes before entering my home, and he cleaned up after. I also really appreciate that the business is prompt, great with communication and that they gave me a 2-hour timeframe for his arrival, and that he did arrive then.
I'll definitely be using Fuse in the future.

Excellent service. We needed our heater replaced, and the Fuse reps and technicians were all professional and responsive. They did an outstanding job communicating in person and via email/phone about our needs, their service, the installed heater, and our contract.

We ran into a electrical lighting issue at a large property that we own/operate. Parking lot pole fixtures installed & wired during the early 1970's with issue being anywhere from the main service panel to any ONE of the particular bulbs, ballast or wire pull underground.  Tom & Julian were able to troubleshoot the issue and locate the exact wire causing the breaker-trip to all 12 fixtures in a matter of hours.

I'll definitely be using O'Connor & Son's Electric for future projects as we are bound to need their expertise in the future.
