I needed some electrical work in a cranky old 40s vintage home. I thought I'd get quotes from a couple of licensed contractors. Robert stood out because he came when he said he would, and offered some thoughtful solutions that saved me a few bucks. Work-wise, everything was done tidily. It came in on-time and on-budget, which was a relief. I plan on calling them for the next wave of work. read more

Power went out yesterday to multiple areas in our home. Bay Valley was able to have Sebastian come over at 7:00 am the next day! Sebastian methodically diagnosed the issues and repaired them. We also had him replace several light switches that were not functioning properly. Sebastian is highly skilled and cleaned up the small amount of debris created by his repairs. This is the second time we've used Bay Valley Electric and we HIGHLY recommend them! read more

Sebastian was very helpful and explained everything he was doing and what I might need done. Great service.

Robert and his crew did an outstanding job at our business in Portola Valley. They followed up quickly on our request and did an amazing job,we love our new lighting. read more

We hired Bay Valley Electric for our kitchen remodel. They sent over Sebastian and he did an awesome job doing a panel upgrade and changed all my lights to LED. I picked out light pendants to hang over my island and he installed it to the perfect height. I will definitely hire them again for all my electrical needs. read more

Bay Valley Electric installed a large pendant light in my dining room and they were responsive, knowledgeable, and skilled. I called them on Tues evening after the handyman ran into electrical wiring issues and felt I needed an electrician. Bay Valley squeezed me in at 7am the next morning! They fixed all the electrical issues and the light looks beautiful. Will absolutely work with BVE again! read more

No heat or hot water over the coldest night of the year! Got a hold of Robert at 7:00 and he sent Sebastian right over. They located a replacement for my obsolete 150A breaker, Sebastian fought road closures (they're repaving my street) twice each way and by 11:00 I was thawing out, getting ready for a hot bath. Thanks Sebastian and Robert. read more

I've worked with Robert and Sebastian for four jobs. They did a good job for each one. They did a new 90 amp conduit on the roof from my main panel to a sub-panel. It passed inspection with no problems. They cleaned up some wiring for lighting in an eichler for me and made it look much better. They replaced some lights for me as well. Their team has always been very pleasant to interact with, and I've been happy with their work. I'll hire them again. read more

I am very happy with the service that Ron provided. We had a number of small projects that needed to be taken care of and he was quick and efficient. We had an attic fan replaced, Satellite TV cables re-routed to an interior wall, an outlet and switch installed for an exterior fountain and outlets and light switch installed in our shed. I highly recommend Ron for his work. read more

Sebastian! My entryway light was giving so much trouble, he responded so promptly and came out to assess the problem. Appreciated his honest opinion on the fixture (instead of a quick "do what you want attitude"). So grateful, he came back to fix the new fixture a second time and did not charge me for that! Polite, efficient and prompt. Thanks Sebastian! read more

Bay Valley Electric has been my 100% "go to" company for over 16 years. Not only have I had them install fairly extensive electrical work in my past 3 commercial/industrial business locations, I also have used them for work in my own home. I think it is amazing that they have jobs ranging from tech company server rooms to custom 12,000 square ft. Atherton homes to small industrial buildings. During the past 16 or so years, Bob at Bay Valley has been nothing but friendly, reliable, and fair. Their work is absolutely of the highest quality as they have fixed many issues caused by previous professional electricians. Bay Valley is not your over-night side work shop. They do things correctly the first time, and other contractors have even complimented Bay Valley's work as other professionals often notice the little things that we don't. On top of their great work, I appreciate the fact that Bay Valley's employees always do a perfect job cleaning up after the work is done. They show a lot of respect for my property and the areas where they are working which is a huge plus in my book as I absolutely hate writing checks for an invoice and then getting the mop and broom out to clean up after a contractor leaves. All the above is why they deserve 5 stars!!!! read more

I've known Robert since he did the electrical for our bathrooms remodel with a high end build and design firm, about 12 years ago. From that moment on, Robert has been our go-to electrician, and I've referred numerous friends to them as well. Robert and Sebastian are simply the best! They get everything done perfectly, quickly, and they are always in a great humor and fun to be around. As well, Robert has spotted and corrected several issues on our home while he was here doing something completely else. Mysterious flickering walkway lights that would go on and off...but only when it rained? Problem solved. Light switch that seemed overly warm to the touch? Circuit was overloaded---fixed it in 25 minutes. He and Sebastian are loved by designers, and can figure out solutions to tricky design issues. Our just-finished kitchen remodel came out beautifully, and the whole thing was painless. We wouldn't use anyone else. read more

I called for an appointment and they promised to come the next day. Never showed up, never returned my follow up call. I would not bother to do business with this company and they are unreliable. read more

If I could give 6 stars, I would. After researching for about a few days, we were recommended by friends to Bay Valley Electric after they had their brand new house wired for them down in Los Altos. We called Bay Valley and spoke with Robert about looking to have our lights and switches retrofitted and remodeled throughout the house. Robert suggested upgrading to LED, as it would not only be a cleaner light, but also financially friendly in the long run, along with upgrading all the fixtures, including switches, to have a more modern feel to tie together with the rest of our home. They spent roughly a full work day redoing all the lights, in a very professional but personable, and timely manner. Robert and his employee Sebastian came out with their gear, didn't make a mess they couldn't clean up, and seemed to appreciate the delicateness of my home. I will recommend Robert and Sebastian from my personal experience to work on anyone's property. Thank you for making my home look beautiful! read more
