Not licensed ! It nearly burned my house !!! I asked them for an EV charger, and was happy with it Until a couple of years later when a strong sense of smell invaded my home. The plug was melting more by the day. If I was away it would have BURNED MY HOUSE. And if your house burns because of an unlicensed professional, your insurance is too happy to deny coverage. Asking a real electrician, the cheap plug is not even the main problem, my electrical panel could have caught fire/melted because the load is too much. You're supposed to verify it can take it (It's part of the process of the permit that should have been done). Their results can trick a non-professional, but there is a reason you need a licence for these works. I found them on Yelp because of their numerous good reviews. Yelp should not allow licensed professionals to advertise without checking their licence first. read more

4 Brothers Electric - Electricians Near Me

My bathroom outlets constantly tripped a fuse when I was using one blowdryer and my builder's electrician couldn't even fix it or give me proper advice. I contacted Agustine & he quickly troubleshooted the issue with me, offered a solution & scheduled a date two days later. Work was done. Fast & easy. What I love about Agustine is fast txting replies & reliability. I highly recommend their team. read more

Update to the owners comment (a "like" on this Yelp review just asked me to update my former review and I just saw the owners response, so here it is): this company doesn't want to admit fault - it's EXTREMELY clear our power lines are buried underground. This is not a "subjective" detail but fact. You could not have done the job your quoted me for - the city inspector from the electricians who did do our work even said your company is known to try and skip inspections all together - worrisome. I did not exaggerate any detail in my former review. Your company did not ever choose not to work with me, either, as you asked when you could get started. I instead chose to hire the guy who called out your shoddy work and they did a great job. I hate when owners on here lie, rather than admitting they made a mistake and will do better in the future. read more

I reached out to 4 Brothers Electric via Yelp to do some rewiring on a portly wired existing outlet in the garage. They responded within 1 day and subsequent responses regarding quotes and pricing were fast as well. Their price was competitive with other quotes I received. Augustine came over to my house and got straight to work. He took a look at the issue with existing wiring and discussed options, providing a suggestion. He quickly installed the conduit, wiring, and outlets. 10 out of 10 would recommend. I'll definitely reach out to them for any future needs. read more

Adrian and team were one the first to respond to my Yelp request. The company was very prompt and had some of the best pricing I was able to find. Although we ultimately did not go with their services, they deserve high praise. Will definitely reach out to them for any future work! read more

I know but I have to say I love these guys. Had to look for a new electrician when my old electrician couldn't seem to find the problem. They came out the day we called, gave us a quote. Came back at the agreed Upon time and fixed the problem. Very easy and very reasonable, plus they explained the problem in a way that I understood it. I will say I am disappointed in my old electrician but I am glad I found these guys. They are awesome. Plus as a bonus they are funny too. I waited a week to post because I wanted to make sure the problem was fixed and it was and the electricity is flowing at my house. read more

Excellent service. Responded and finished work on same day. Augustine was very professional and finished job as per expectation. read more

4 Brothers Electric - Excellent service. Provided same day service and was very professional. Very happy with you work - Electricians Near Me

Alejandro was awesome! Very efficient! Asked him to replace 3 chandeliers and he did a great job! Was a bit skeptical at first because he is not very responsive with text but if you call him he answers his phone. He was the most affordable among 10 other businesses that gave me a quote . I mean ridiculously cheaper!!! But his work is excellent! All in all I was pleased with his work and he even offered 2 year warranty for his work at no charge! Thanks so much Alejandro!! read more

I highly recommend 4 Brothers Electric. I reached out to them via Yelp and received a response to my inquiry within a reasonable time. I spoke to Agustin. He is very professional and clearly communicated what was causing the issues, and cited possible solutions to address the problem. I am satisfied with the work, and will continue to work with this company for future electrical projects. read more

They literally over here scamming clients out of money!! They literally pull the whole "pay now and we'll complete the work" then they take the money and run without doing the work, it's the same old bait and switch. It's our bad for paying up front, we shouldn't have paid until the work is done! Now they dodging phone calls, then when they do answer, they be like "oh we'll come do the work on Saturday" then they don't show up and stop answering the phone again. It's crazy that there are still shady contractors like this! Consumer beware that they'll take your money and run!! SMDH read more

[!] Be aware - these guys are not licenced electricians! Yet, they lie about this and commit to work that requires permits / licences. If you don't believe me - try to find this business on cslb.ca.gov. In my case they did the main panel upgrade. Their invoice specifically said "All inspections, city permits, and disconnect will all be provided and handled by 4 Brothers electric at the customer's request.". In reality they staged the whole process - brought in a fake inspector and gave me a fake inspection notice. The San Jose Permit Office confirmed that no permits were issued for my address and no inspectors were assigned. Once I confronted these guys, they went into a complete silence mode - no answer either on Yelp or phone. Now I'm working on getting a proper permit and it turns out that they did a horrible job, that doesn't follow the code: wrong type of the panel, missing insulation, broken clamps, etc. All needs to be re-done. Don't fall for their 'reasonable' prices, you will end up paying much more in the end. I'm looking for away to get at least some of my payment back though the authorities. read more

They were very responsive in getting a quote and setting up a time to come out. Augustine stated he would arrive on Wednesday between 9:30 and 10:00. Just after 10:00, he wrote that he was stuck waiting for an inspector and couldn't come out and couldn't find anyone else who could come that day. Fair enough. So we agreed that he would come out the next day (Thursday), and I requested 8 AM. He wasn't there at 8 AM -- nor did he respond my text asking about when he would be available. I called the main line and got a hold of one of the other brothers at 9 AM. He agreed to come out the next day (Friday) at 8 AM. At 8:20 on Friday, I texted to see when he was arriving. No response. I called at 9 AM. He answered, and said he would be here "in five minutes". He never arrived, nor did anyone else. Nor did I receive any other response. This has just been a colossal waste of my time. In particular, I have never had someone say they would arrive in five minutes and then not show up or even apologize. If I can't trust you when you say you'll be here in five minutes, I'm not trusting you to work on the wiring on my home! Maybe 4 brothers needs a fifth brother (or sister?) to have enough people to cover the promises they make? A shame, especially given how responsive they were at first. read more

Just want to say 4 Brothers electric did help us with a few electrical issues. Ceiling fan install, garage lighting , and attic fan service. Very professional and courteous , as well as puntctual. Augustine and his apprentice help went right at our needs and got them done in a surprisingly quick time frame . Highly recommend them ! Tom C read more

Fantastic service and communication. I booked with Adrian yesterday and his brother Augustine came by the next day to remove a track light and install a new light fixture we had. Highly recommended! read more

Well I can't really comment on their work because they didn't show up for our appointment, or answer any of my messages or texts! Kind of a shame because rearranged my work schedule and was waiting for them... read more

Agustine and his brother did the job as requested. On time, job well done and for the price that we agreed. I recommend their services.

Had a job scheduled today and the technician didn't show up. Now the business isn't answering the phone and I have to scramble to find a last minute electrician. The estimate was reasonable but do not work with them if you need a reliable electrician. read more

Took a minute to actually get their phone number. Glad I made the effort. Very professional, they wore masks and were considerate when they arrived. Got the work done quickly and did a nice job. I'd hire them back without hesitation. read more

I needed to replace the exhaust fan in my bathroom. I called, a few weeks ago 2 other contractors and their prices were a bit too much for such a small job. My wife told me to call 4 Brothers, and I did. Best call by far. After talking to Augustin explaining what I needed done he came by to look at the fan. He took a look at it gave me a quote and I asked him to look at other things that needed replacement. He didn't hesitate to take on the extra work. He got it all done the next day. He was friendly and explained everything he was going to do. I will definitely be calling him again for some other projects. He was very professional & took all COVID precautions. read more

They did a great job replacing the backyard light and two exhaust fans. Also, there price was fair. They were courteous, professional, and wore their masks all the time. read more

They were awesome. Did a really good job, showed up on-time and were very professional. Good folk.

Agustine, the technician who serviced our home and owns the company, is knowledgeable, prompt, and professional. Before even scheduling an appointment, he spent time with me on the phone to diagnose some of our issues and helped to isolate potential causes. After arriving, he was able to quickly identify the root cause of my issues and make the necessary repairs. Can't be happier with the service. Would use again and recommend! read more

These guys came in, super cordial and knowledgeable, added 3 plugs to the house in a speedy and quality manner. Definitely using them for any more electrical needs. read more

4 Brothers Electric installed new lighting in my garage and I was very happy with their work. They explained different options clearly to help me make the best choice based on my needs. They did great work at an affordable price. I would recommend this company and wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again read more

Communication is not great .He was great in getting the additional items needed for the job but when asked for clarification on items in the receipt , he made a very disrespectful comment saying that we were fighting for a petty $25 purchase when asked for clarification. We would never work with them again. read more

Showed up literally next day after receiving a very reasonable flat rate quote - solid workmanship done quickly and taking all necessary COVID precautions. Highly recommended. read more

I had fairly minor electric issues that needed attending to mostly for my peace of mind, and Agustin and his brother Jaime were prompt, professional, friendly, humorous, and accommodating in helping resolve these lighting issues. When we parted today, I told Agustin I would both recommend 4 Brothers Electric to my friends and call on them in the future with my electrical needs. I trusted them in all regards. read more

Reasonable quote for hooking up my dryer to the 220V outlet that was much farther (quotes for some other work not so reasonable). Just finished, so don't know how good the work was. Will run couple of laundry loads and try it out. Had to make some holes in the wall and ceiling, so will need to check for leaks after rains. -1 star because I had to constantly go after them to schedule, get a reply on questions etc. Also, they got onto my stacked washer/dryer to reach the ceiling, there was no other way, but I would have appreciated a heads-up. They used the existing piping in the garage for support while climbing up, it wasn't very comforting to watch. Will use their services again. read more

I hired 4 Brothers via Yelp to install several new outlets in my house. I was thoroughly impressed by their communication, knowledge of electrical work, and integrity. I live in an old home in Oakland and things would arise during the job. Augie kept me looped in at every turn and the crew did exactly what they said they were going to do. It's also worth noting, they did this job at a fair (not too high, not too low) price - hard to find in the Bay Area. If you're looking for an electrician who communicates well, charged a fair price, and has the skills to deliver, I recommend 4 Brothers. I will use Augie and his team again in the future. read more

I called them to come on site to get a quote for installing a yard light. The person charged 100$ for the first visit and scheduled for the next visit for installation. I bought the light as they recommended. Then he didn't show up on the day. He texted and set up another time and did not show up AGAIN and has never replied texts since then. Just found out some other customers had similar experience around the same time. read more

I have issues with using too many appliances within the same outlet and I thought my electrical needs attention. Batres called me and explain the problem and asked if I can re-arrange my appliance so that it won't use much as one or upgrade to 20 amp CB from 15 amp. I following his advice to arrange my appliance and it works. Thank you read more

Adrian & his colleague added a 30amp outlet, installed recessessed ceiling lights, and added an electrical outlet to a bathroom. Overall, I was extremely pleased by his work. He kept us well informed throughout the process. He is the 3rd electrician I've hired in my lifetime, and I can confidently say that he is the BEST! read more

I have used 4 Brothers two times now, once to untangled a fuse box and re-wire my house and outside cottage and just recently to replace an outside security lamp. The cost for each was very much within the range I expected, and both Orlando and Agustine were professional, concerned about making precisely the improvements I wanted, and genuinely nice people. I highly recommend them for both difficult and less complicated electric work. John McLeod read more

We hired them to install a GFCI outlet in our backyard. Great company! They were very responsive, great communication, and did a fantastic job. Highly recommend! read more

Very professional. Arrived on time and fixed someone else's mess. I had a ring flood light camera installed by another company and they did not install it well as the light switch that turned on two other exterior lights had to always be on to work. 4 brothers electric solved the problem by adding an extra wire to give power just to the motion sensing ring flood light. It now works perfect! I don't need to waste money by having other lights on just for the ring camera to be running. I would highly recommend, they are very honest and explain everything in detail rather then just doing things at their convenience like the first electrician. They also charge a reasonable flat rate fee and do not rush to complete the job. The technician also abided to safety COVID precautions and kept the distance and wore a mask the entire time. If you need an honest electrician hire 4 brothers! read more

These guys are FAST! I put in a quote request for installing an EV charger for my new car. Augustine called me within an hour of submitting the quote to talk about the specifics. He was great in explaining the breakdown of pros and cons of going with lower and higher power solutions, and was real with me about what I needed in my situation. He was responsive, flexible, and easy to talk to to just get the work done. Super reasonable rates for the quality of work he and his brothers did. Highly recommend! read more

Ugh. I really wanted to like 4 Brothers and Augustine. When he came out to look at our job I was encouraged, because he really seemed to want to work with us and understood our financial restrictions as a small nonprofit. He also told me that he was honored that I called him, because of the work that we do. He told me that he'd talk to his brothers and get back to me to see if it was something they wanted to do. Four days later, after no word from him, I sent him a text to touch base. I never heard back from him. I texted him again three days after that checking in to see if they had decided to bid on the job. I told him it was no problem if they decided not to. Didn't get a response that time either. He literally ghosted me. Just tell me upfront you don't want the job. I can handle that, but ghosting me? So unprofessional. read more

I hired 4 brothers for an electrical panel upgrade. They left the job unfinished, and I had to reschedule the city inspection several times. The job they did has not passed inspection and continues to give other problems. Phone response from them have been poor and I regret hiring them. Stay away folks read more

Adrian was great to work with. We needed a nema 14-50 outlet in the garage for ev charging. He responded immediately to my quote request on yelp, answered quickly all my questions and did a clean job on the install. No power interruption while he was working on receptacle. Price was also reasonable compared to others. read more
