I am extremely pleased with this business. They are professional, honest, and easy to work with. I contacted several companies for estimates on my electrical project and received a wide range of responses and unusually high quotes. What I needed was a straightforward installation, yet some companies tried to make it seem far more complicated than it actually was. Their communication stood out--they were prompt, clear, and reliable. They arrived right on time and completed the installation exactly as requested, without any issues. The quality of the work looks great, and everything was handled smoothly. I'm very satisfied with the entire experience and would confidently recommend them to anyone in need of electrical work. read more

If you need an electrician who is trustworthy, highly capable, and fairly priced, Bahram is your guy. I recently hired Bahram (Altap) to replace our old Challenger main electrical panel and upgrade it to 200A to prepare for a new heat pump system. I brought in four different electricians for bids, and Bahram was the easiest choice. Out of all the estimators, he was the first one who had the expertise to immediately point out a critical code requirement regarding the distance to our gas meter. On top of that, he gave us the best price of the four and never once tried to upsell me. I just felt incredibly comfortable and at ease talking to him. Because the heat pump installation was entirely dependent on the electrical being finished first, the timing was critical. Bahram had the experience to perfectly orchestrate the logistics. He navigated the City of Cupertino inspectors and PG&E, pulling off the city sign-off and the PG&E power reconnect on the exact same day. Over the few weeks this project spanned from estimate to completion, he might be quiet for a few days at a time, but he always came through. He responded exactly when it mattered, did exactly what he promised (including a last-minute breaker install right before the HVAC crew arrived), and delivered flawless work. He even connected us with a fantastic handyman to patch the walls afterward. read more

Altap Electrical - New main panel on my house. - Electricians Near Me

Blew up a breaker trying to install a three-way switch, had replaced a bunch of pieces, but that was more or less copy and paste. This was something different. Happened over the weekend, and had company coming later in the week. No lights in the living room, kitchen, or at the front door. Reached out on Sunday night, got back to me Monday and I got back to them Monday evening. Set up a call for Tuesday afternoon, now sitting in a house with a three-way switch install installed, new breaker, and lights on! Thank you very much for coming in such short notice and very reasonable cost! All in was $240 labor, and replacement parts for the breaker. I already had the switches, but the technician figured out the wiring layout and got it to work. Service was quick, maybe a half hour being generous. Easily would recommend again! Probably will use them in the future for a different job I have in mind, but I'm not ready to do that just yet. read more

We wanted to install an EVSE but also needed to upgrade our subpanel because (a) Zinsco and (b) no available 240V breaker spaces. I talked to or got quotes from 12 electricians.

On the day of the install, Bahram and his colleague arrived on time, replaced the sub-panel efficiently, installed the EVSE, and left a clean work site. He handled the final inspection also. read more

I needed to update my lighting in the kitchen from the neon tubes. An immediate estimate followed contact and a reasonable price offered.

I contacted this company seeking a full electrical evaluation (panel load review and EV charger planning), not just a basic troubleshooting visit. They were ready to send someone out for hourly troubleshooting. However, after I mentioned that I would be pulling permits if required, I was told Palo Alto was outside their service area. The immediate shift in response after discussing permits did not give me confidence to proceed. read more

Bahram fixed a short that my previous electrician left! I had a sump pump installed. Another electrician came to add the outlet. A couple of days later the outlet tripped the breaker which wouldn't flip back. It was on the same line as our furnace and it was one of those 30 degree days! I messaged Altap and Bahram promptly came over the next day. He is extremely knowledgeable. Come to think of it, I might need him to install a 240v outlet for my car soon! read more

Altap Electrical - Electricians Near Me

Altap installed a junction box required for our new double ovens, replaced a 50A double pole breaker with adjacent single pole breakers to accommodate two independent 20A circuits, and replaced our kitchen fluorescent lighting fixture with recessed LED lights. Bahram provided a free in-person assessment within a couple hours of our original inquiry. The quote was incredibly reasonable. On the day the work was performed, Bahram and Chris showed up on time, promptly completed the work, and even helped me install the ovens. Bahram also provided a great recommendation for a contractor to perform the drywall repair from the removed fluorescent fixture. I would strongly recommend Altap to anyone in the SJ area. We will definitely work with them again for future electrical work. read more

Bahram and his team are as professional as it gets. He knows his stuff inside out having been an engineer at a semiconductor company prior to starting his business. He's honest, on time, upfront, clean and reasonably priced. I haven't had very many good experiences with tradesmen in the past but my experience with Altap electrical shines above the rest. I got our electrical panel upgraded to 200amp and I can't think of anything that he could have done to improve. Highly recommend Altap for all your electrical needs. read more

I called Altap/Bahram to get advice and a quote for installing an EVSE (EV Charger) in my full electrical panel. He was very helpful with options/suggestions and quoted a very fair price.

wasn't a great experience. Got a message back, connected, tried multiple times to get someone to come over to give an estimate but never got a response back. Left a voicemail again yesterday. moving on with other companies. to be clear, they never gave a quote and i never had them do any work, so cannot speak to the quality of work. read more

Shout out to the man Bahram! We had a few outlets out and some lights that weren't turning on, and Altap immediately contacted us to make a visit the next day. Bahram came in and out within 30 minutes and helped tighten the wires of our breaker box that we were unaware were loose. Overall, he was very nice and accommodating (took off shoes, played with my dog a bit) and I would recommend Altap to anyone looking for electrical service! read more

We worked with Bahram and his team on several projects, including a subpanel installation, and we are very happy with the quality of their work!

Strongly recommend giving Bahram a call for your electrical needs! read more

I requested this guy for a quote regarding a NEMA 1450 plug. All I got is you need to do this, you need to do that just to provide an estimate. I mean, I understand that if I was working on his team, but asking a customer to find all that information is ridiculous as he wouldnt come over to do the due diligence himself. I even provided him the panel photos but he asked me to solve a math problem before he even came to my residence. Very dissapointing experience, perhaps the quality of his work is great, but when it requires to do some detailed groundwork for a project, this is not the guy you want. read more

7/18/25/. I am happy to add another 5 star rating for Bahram, owner of Altap Electrical! His communications, value, & knowledge were all great. My project was a "simple" 4 switch / 4-way light circuit, but I knew better than to do it myself. Bahram gave a quote over the phone before coming the next day snd he stuck with that fair price, even after needing to supply 1-2 switches and a switch plate. I have saved Altap (Bahram) on my phone for future electrical needs. read more

Altap were able to get an electrician out within a few hours and within 45mins the engineer found the root cause of the problem. Some wires had come loose in one of the light switches and this was impacting other lights on the same circuit. I never knew this was a thing! I definitely recommend Altap and will be keeping them on hand for other electrical needs, many thanks! read more

I was impressed with Altap's 5-star rating on Yelp, so gave him a try today. The rating did not disappoint. I was very happy with the service I received. He was kind, patient and fixed the problems. I actually called him for only one problem, but when he arrived, gave him a couple more, and he fixed all of them without complaint. The price is very reasonable in comparison to others, and I would recommend you give them a try too! read more

JTBD (Jobs to be Done): Needed to install floodlights, Dryer outlet (EV car Charger) and a few outdoor power outlets. Constraints here was to finish the job as soon as my solar inspection passed (within 3-4 days of inspection) Pre-work: Requested multiple quotes through, had a few electricians stop by / video call to provide their estimates. Some also tried to up sell their services, but having basic knowledge of costs helped. Bahram's estimate was the most competitive. Bahram was also super responsive from the beginning of this project. Finalizing work and personnel: Bahram is passionate about his work and doesn't take any of his customers and their requests for granted. I say this because initially I had the tempered my expectations from a business (Altap) with 300+ 5 star Yelp reviews (surely I'm not their last customer). However I was onboard in utilizing Altap and Bahram help based on his extensive knowledge, quote, and responsiveness. Scheduling and work completion: As mentioned above, I wanted to get someone to fix all my electrical work in 3 days of solar inspection. I also had personal reasons to complete the electrical work soon which I had shared with Bahram. He was super kind and flexible to shuffle some of his appointments to schedule our work on the decided day. His crew (Dylan and Chris) and him came 15 mins before time (5 stars right there!) and finished the work in a few hours. Bahram took time to explain the pros and cons in one of the outdoor power outlets that we needed to install. He also helped us understand some electrical issue in the solar sub panel which needed to be fixed for the one of power outlets and my EV charger to have power. I was glad I got to know about this issue before hand so I could take it up with my solar company. The previous reviews on Altap electricals and Bahram are absolutely on point! I highly recommend them and glad we found reliable electricians (Altap) in our corner! Thank you read more
