I can't recommend Brian Archbold highly enough. I called with a tricky electrical issue, and…read moreinstead of just scheduling a service call, he actually took the time to walk me through the problem over the phone. Thanks to his clear guidance, I was able to fix it myself -- and he didn't even charge me for his time! What really impressed me is his ability to diagnose unusual electrical problems and come up with practical solutions quickly. On top of that, when I needed help finding a reliable solar technician, he provided me with an excellent referral after I had been searching without luck. It's rare to find someone so knowledgeable, generous with their expertise, and genuinely focused on helping customers. If you need an electrician who goes above and beyond, this is the person to call.

Brian was super responsive after requesting a quote. He called back immediately and we ended up…read moredetermining that our project was out of scope for his company. However, that didn't stop him from engaging with me on our plans, asking questions, making some cost-saving suggestions, providing solid advice, and even sharing a few referrals. I immediately saved his contact in my phone in the hopes we'll be able to work with him in the future!

I've used Adary Electric multiple times now at my home in Redwood City and both times Victor has…read morebeen outstanding. First visit, he troubleshot a closet light that had lost its neutral behind a ceiling fan, tracked it down and reconnected it. He also diagnosed a dead 3-way switch in the hallway -- turned out the prior electrician had wired it wrong on a single pole -- and converted it properly to a 3-way. Knocked out a kitchen can light switch while he was at it. All done in about an hour. No other electrician was able to figure it out the closet light kerfuffle, but Victor did! Turns out he has nearly 30 years of experience! Second visit, Victor and Francisco came out to remove a 6" recessed can light and splice onto the switch leg to power a new ceiling fan I'd had installed. Clean work, everything labeled, no loose ends. Done in about 2.5 hours. Rates are fair ($125/hr), they show up when they say they will, and Victor clearly knows residential electrical inside and out -- he doesn't guess, he diagnoses. The kind of electrician you want working inside your walls. Highly recommend for anyone in the Peninsula area!

Very courteous, knowledgeable and prompt. They were able to help my client out and repriced well.read more

His soonest available slot was about 2 weeks out which was fine with us as we weren't in a rush. A few years ago, I reached out about a main panel upgrade and at the time was told he didn't do those since they're pretty big jobs. (We did end up getting the upgrade with a different provider, and I can attest to that it's a very, very big job.) Not sure if that's still the case, but just an FYI.

The downstairs restroom outlets at a property we own suddenly stopped working…read more The bathrooms themselves don't have GFCI outlets, but we tried resetting all the GFCIs we could find in the house with no luck. That's when I started calling around for help. Most places I called were quick to ask what was wrong and immediately quote me a fee just to come out. I was considering one of them until I spoke with Meigs. He was awesome. He told me he offers free quotes over the phone, but he didn't just give me a quote. He actually tried to help me troubleshoot the issue right then and there. He spent about 10 minutes on the phone with me, calmly walking me through step-by-step instructions. He suggested there might be another GFCI hidden somewhere else in the house or even in the garage. The garage hadn't even crossed my mind, but it made sense since the restrooms are closer to that side of the house. Since we don't live at the property, I wasn't there at the time to test it. I told him we'd try it when we were back there later in the week. I must've sounded a little flustered because he kindly said, "When you get there, call me if you need me," offering to walk me through everything again if necessary. Sure enough, when we checked the garage, there it was, a GFCI outlet we hadn't noticed before. We reset it, and everything worked like a charm. There was power again in the restrooms downstairs. Thanks to Meigs, he saved me at least $350 of the visit and solved the issue in 10 minutes over the phone. He absolutely could've skipped the troubleshooting and charged the service fee, but he chose to help instead, and that says a lot about his integrity. Highly recommend. Thank you, Meigs!

Amazing service, knowledgeable and kind, fast and fair!…read more We haven't had an experience like this in a long time. Meigs and his team are the friendly and fair professionals you dream of working with when you have an electrical issue that's beyond your knowledge to repair.

We can't recommend him and his team enough, Thank you Meigs!

The breaking point was when the internet became unreliable because the power was unreliable and the stove stopped working. I contacted Alex and he said he could send someone over that same day. He was transparent about the pricing before the job began. When his team member (Ming) came over he was thorough and transparent about what he found and Alex came over to assess himself. Turns out one of the main line coming into the house on the verge of burning out and thus the other 110v line was trying to compensate which caused it to also overload. This explained why the 240 outlets were not functioning. Our electrical was just old and the age caught up. He gave a reasonable estimate and fixed it by the end of the day. In passing, I also mentioned that although our stove worked, it seemed that it's power fades as I use it more and he was able to determine that line was under gauged for the load and was a fire hazard. Looking up the prior setup before my recent renovation, I see that they had incorrectly reduced the stove line from 40amps to 30amps. Alex and team was able to solved that problem as well, giving me updates along the way and providing very easy to understand explanations. This was an annoying problem plaguing us for years! Again, the pricing is very reasonable and the quality of work is exceptional. I highly recommend Alex Tong and his team.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Brian, an electrician I was referred to by a friend, and I can't recommend him enough! From start to finish, Brian was incredibly responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. He took the time to thoroughly explain what needed to be done and answered all my questions, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was transparent and honest about what was required, which made me feel confident in his expertise. I've worked with a few electricians in the Bay Area, and Brian is hands down the most reliable one I've come across. If you're looking for a trustworthy and skilled electrician, I highly recommend reaching out to Brian! read more

The…read moremisinformation and last‑minute changes showed there's clearly no coordination between the front desk and the technicians. Thankfully, Chris was the complete opposite. He arrived prepared, explained everything clearly, and came up with a solid game plan. He handled the job professionally and efficiently. I booked my appointment on 3/2 in the morning and called the front desk for more information. The receptionist booked my same‑day appointment and I received an email confirmation. Later, I suddenly got a text saying the appointment needed to be rescheduled -- but then, about 15 minutes later, Chris (the technician) showed up with the job order anyway. Thankfully, Chris was the complete opposite. He arrived prepared, explained everything clearly, and came up with a solid game plan. He handled the job professionally and efficiently. I'd give Chris 5 stars, but the front desk communication brings the overall experience down.

After getting several bids, I chose Safety First and I'm glad I did. This was the first time I've ever worked with a licensed contractor where the entire project went so smoothly!!! It was planned and executed perfectly, and all the scheduling with PG&E and the City of San Jose inspectors was seamlessly coordinated. Inspections all passed with flying colors. When the panel was turned on for the first time, everything powered up with no issues. The crew that was onsite doing the work was great! They clearly knew what they were doing and they cleaned up after themselves everyday they were on the job. My project took 3 days from start to finish and it was not stressful at all!!! I highly recommend Safety First for all your electrical needs!!! I will be honest and say they were not the cheapest but it was money well spent for the work that was done and what I believe was the best value for quality workmanship!

My house is 50+ years old, half knob & tube and half romex, so I knew finding the problem could take a while. Kevin fit me in his busy schedule within a couple of days.

Within one hour he found the problem, fixed it, and improved the wiring and junction boxes (to his high standards) that caused the problem. The entire job from start to finish took two hours!! He does large and small jobs. When I remodel my kitchen, he is the one I'm going to use. I highly highly recommend Kevin Terriberry of TERRIBERRY ELECTRIC. Dave

Alex and…read morehis team were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout the entire project. Their quote was very competitive for the scope of work, which included rewiring my entire 1959 home, running Cat6 Ethernet cables throughout the house, running Ethernet for my PoE security cameras, upgrading my main electrical panel from 100A to 200A, installing a new subpanel, adding dedicated circuits, replacing bathroom exhaust fans, and reassessing the bathroom lighting. The biggest reason for tackling this project was safety and reliability. My home had ungrounded outlets throughout, and simply running the laundry would frequently trip power to the entire house. Alex and his team identified the issues, installed additional circuits where needed, and made sure everything was brought up to current code. I also wanted the bathroom exhaust fans replaced because poor ventilation was causing moisture buildup, and nobody wants mold growing in their home. The new fans have made a noticeable difference. One thing that really impressed me was the amount of work involved in running all the new wiring. They had to navigate a very hot, cramped attic and tight crawlspaces to pull Ethernet and electrical cables throughout the house. It's physically demanding work, but Alex and his team handled it efficiently and without complaint. They also ran the cables for my security camera system, leaving my home ready for both reliable networking and future expansion. Alex took the time to answer my many questions and explain what was necessary versus optional. Although the city inspection scheduling took longer than expected, that was completely outside of A&J Electrical's control. When inspection day finally arrived, the work passed on the very first inspection, which speaks to the quality of their workmanship. If you're looking for an electrician for an older home that needs significant electrical upgrades, I would definitely recommend Alex and the A&J Electrical team. They helped turn an outdated electrical system into one that's safe, reliable, and ready for modern living.
