    Knowledgable team but beware of up-charges. Duke and his team were able to detect the problem quickly in our home when other electricians had failed so I give him due credit for it. However, we discussed in detail over the phone that his initial fee would cover diagnostics and repair if done within the first hour. As soon as the team found the issue (10mins) they figured a socket needed to be relocated. Immediately an upcharge of $100 was mentioned on grounds that it was too much additional labor. They put a new socket and plate but it did not feel justified for the up charge. They were out within the hour. EDIT: Within 10mins of the neutral review I got a text message from the owner threatening to report to the city on some work where they had no knowledge of how/ where/ what was done. I responded that they don't need to blackmail and that it will posted on yelp too (screenshot attached). Immediately I got a call where the owner started to put up a fight. Never seen such practice. Just for this I have taken a star off!

    Duke came to our new house to quote us for what we thought was a partial knob and tube rewire and turned out to be the majority of the house. Another electrician underbid him but Duke was much clearer in sharing his concerns going in about how much we would find, and he turned out to be right. Despite a lot of extra add ons and more scope than originally expected the original quote was accurate, and the guys are incredibly professional and precise in their work. I will use Duke again in a heartbeat.

    This is what it looked like before

    An Exceptional Electrical Upgrade Experience with Duke Electric -- True Professionals Who Get It Right the First Time! If you're looking for an honest, skilled, and detail-oriented electrical contractor who listens and delivers exactly what you envisioned -- call Duke Electric in Campbell, CA. After years of research and hesitation, I finally found the right team -- Duke Nguyen, Eddie Carrera, and Alex Miranda -- to modernize my home's electrical system. Their work was phenomenal. After installing my Tesla Solar Roof in 2021, I knew I needed to upgrade my 200A breaker panel for future EV chargers and smarter monitoring. I first looked into the SPAN IO Smart Panel, but after months of poor communication and unreliable installers, I walked away. Two panels would've been required -- nearly $13K just for hardware -- and confidence was low. Other contractors quoted $25K-$35K, pushed 400A upgrades, and refused to use Leviton Load Centers. I wasn't convinced, so I waited -- and that proved wise. In 2025, Leviton launched its 2nd-Gen Smart Breakers, offering remote ON/OFF control and per-circuit monitoring. Backed by 100 years of safety, it was the clear choice over any startup. The Project -- Smart Design & Craftsmanship Duke replaced my old panel with a three-panel 225A Leviton system featuring full smart monitoring: * Main 225A All-in-One: Meter lower right, 30 spaces above. * 42-Space Subpanel: Added beside the main for expansion. * 20-Space Subpanel: Dedicated for two Tesla Wall Connectors, one on each side of the garage -- no visible conduit, perfectly symmetrical. With Leviton's Whole-Home Monitor, I can track each circuit and toggle breakers remotely. Duke's crew also reorganized decades of messy wiring into a clean, labeled setup. Why I Chose Duke Before Duke, another company had the permit and PG&E disconnect scheduled -- then canceled two days before, blaming an unsigned, incomplete quote. Frustrated, I contacted several companies on Sept 22. Duke responded first and arrived that same noon. Within minutes he spotted errors in the materials the prior contractor told me to buy -- total pro. Others either seemed overwhelmed or tried to simplify my plan. Duke was different -- confident and resourceful. Because I already had a Tesla Solar Roof, he coordinated a custom offset service pipe through his fabrication partner. While others declined, Duke embraced the challenge. Pre-Work -- Preparation & Precision Days before PG&E's disconnect, Duke's team began pre-work: installing the main subpanel, EV subpanel, and two Tesla chargers, while rerouting tangled old conduits into a tidy junction box. This prep ensured that on disconnect day, they could remove the old panel, mount the new one with the offset conduit, and restore power the same day. Opening the stucco revealed an out-of-code service pipe, poorly bent and misaligned. Duke and Eddie measured precisely, corrected multiple violations, and ran 125A feeders through the attic to the EV subpanel. Every conduit was straight, every label exact, and the worksite spotless. PG&E & Inspection Day Before 7 AM, Duke and Eddie were already on-site checking everything. When PG&E arrived at 7:25, they disconnected service, and the team immediately replaced the old panel and conduit with the new Leviton Load Center. By noon all wiring was complete. That afternoon, the city inspector asked for a redundant ground -- unnecessary but easy. Duke's crew added it, and PG&E reconnected power the same day. Stucco & Finishing Touches Before the meter-release inspection, Duke's stucco partner repaired the exterior wall, added insulation, moisture paper, and mesh -- fixing poor insulation likely dating back to 1962. I even ran out to grab insulation, which they used on the spot. Because the first inspector wasn't electrical, the final sign-off was rescheduled. After the Oct 20 inspection, the stucco team returned: first sealing with concrete, then on Nov 1 finishing with an acrylic coat perfectly matching the original texture. On Nov 2, Duke personally came for a full walkthrough, verifying every detail before calling it done. Final Thoughts Duke Electric isn't just another contractor -- they're masters of their craft. Duke, Eddie, and Alex work with precision, pride, and integrity. Duke often said he could only take on such a complex job because of his amazing team -- from his pipe-fabrication partner to the stucco crew. Had I stayed with the previous company, I'd have been left in limbo with an unapproved permit and an exposed wall. Instead, I thank God for that cancellation -- it led me to Duke Electric. If you need an electrician for smart panels, solar integration, or EV chargers, call them. You'll get honesty, craftsmanship, and true peace of mind. They've earned my trust, my gratitude, and a lifelong customer. As Duke said with a confident smile: "Now that your main breaker is done, anything else you'll need will be a piece of cake for us."

    1 of the 10 wall lights installed

    I hired Duke Electric to replace / install 10 outdoor wall lights at my house. Two person team took 2 hours and completed the project with high quality. Solid value for the high quality work that the team provided. Will definitely consider Duke for future projects.

    Paper templates  of where the recessed lighting will go.
    Melissa J.

    I used the "projects" function on Yelp to request quotes for recessed lighting. Duke responded that when it came to high ceilings, he was the expert. I thought to myself, "who is this guy?!" It turns out, he was absolutely right. Not only is he an expert, he's the DUKE of high ceilings!!! (See what I did there? Lol) I initially hired Duke for recessed lighting all throughout the house. We have an angled living room ceiling without any crawl space / attic above; all of the quotes we got from other electricians required a lot of patchwork from the LED recessed lighting installation. Duke minimized the patchwork needed and recommended a wireless system. He also removed old ceiling fans from our bedrooms. He generously installed a wiring harness, making the installation easier for us. Duke provided great insight and suggestions for the appropriate amount of lighting throughout the house. We loved his work so much, we requested him to upgrade our electrical panel and also had him install a chandelier-like fixture. He actually found the style of the fixture, which looks great in our home! Not only does Duke do amazing work, he is hilarious!!!! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with him. He is very personable and honest. We look forward to contacting Duke in the future for a possible EV charger, and will recommend him to all friends and family. Thank you so much!!!

    New Panel
    Kathleen Y.

    Our home in Los Altos was having some electrical issues & our old electrical panel needed to be replaced. Duke was very quick to respond, and was willing to come by over the weekend to give us an estimate. Our job was a little tricky, since our current electrical panel was too close to a gas line. Duke seemed the most knowledgeable & offered us some excellent options. His estimate was very fair, and he made the process smooth & easy, permits were all included too. Everything was done as promised, clean, excellent job and time! The new electrical panel looks great! He even took care of the stucco surrounding the panel, since the new panel was smaller than the old one. I highly recommend Duke & will use him again in the future.

    Dirty walls and 4 large, messy holes (instead of 2 small one asked to fish the wire).

It was stressful and overwhelming, until Henry from California Power & Light stepped in. Henry responded after normal business hours because it was an emergency and immediately assessed the situation. What really stood out was how he took ownership of the entire process. He leveraged his contacts with PG&E and the city, coordinated everything that needed to happen, and moved incredibly fast. Not only did he arrange the response right away, he reworked his company's schedule to get a crew to our house the very next day. From there, he coordinated with PG&E, handled the permitting process, and got the city inspection completed within two days, something that is extremely rare in a situation like this. Beyond the technical expertise and speed, Henry was simply great to deal with. He communicated clearly, stayed calm, and brought a sense of control to what was otherwise a very stressful situation for our family. If you need an electrician who is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly advocates for his customers, Henry and California Power & Light are outstanding. We are incredibly grateful for the professionalism and urgency he brought to resolving a serious electrical emergency.

When we moved to our current home, we encountered several challenges with the original kitchen cabinets and drawers, upon which we further appreciated the seemingly small details that Patty put in that makes your everyday life so much easier: deep enough drawers, convenient back row access, and functional ways of managing blind corners. When we finally decided to remodel our current kitchen, without a doubt, I reached out to Patty for help. She spent enormous time going through the details of what we wanted for the kitchen, brainstorming with me, and then proposed several options for us to consider. She proactively came to our construction site multiple times to ensure the measurements are accurate, and she spent quality time with our construction crew to ensure the installation is perfect. As the project moved along, we had several new ideas and alterations in mind that was beyond our original plan, and every time this happened, Patty always patiently adjusted the design for us. It is really apparent that as much as we did, Patty wanted the kitchen to be as perfect as we have dreamed of, as if it were her own. And it did. We couldn't be more happier with the outcome. Our family have been utterly enjoying all the family cooking and gathering in our new kitchen. We owe this a lot to Patty's superb design skills, practical considerations, and ultimately the strong ownership and professionalism. Thank you again Patty and Signature Kitchen Design!

She took my aesthetics and ideas and skillfully incorporated them into a design that felt deeply "us," while elevating everything in ways I couldn't have achieved on my own. We now have more space, a peninsula where our whole family can eat, all without knocking down walls.

We always felt cared for, never rushed, and deeply supported in our decisions. Patty and Kurt treated us like partners in the process, not just clients, and their communication was clear, warm, and reassuring from start to finish. Our finished kitchen has exceeded our expectations in both beauty and function, and it brings us joy every single day. Friends, family, and neighbors continue to compliment the transformation and the quality of the design. If we ever need renovation advice in the future, Signature Kitchen & Bath will be our first call.
