Rigo did a great job with the 3 things I had done: replacing an electrical panel, replacing 2 light fixtures, and installing a smoke alarm. He was on time, knowledgable, and efficient. I don't think it is necessarily the cheapest option around but with something like this, quality and experience matters and they did a great job and handle permits and such. They did exactly what I asked them to do and were responsive over email and able to ask the exact questions they needed which made things seamless. This is not necessarily a bad thing but they could have probably done some kind of "walk through" around the place and found some additional work for me. Upselling is obviously not always a great practice but in my case, there were some things that I wish I had done and I think they could have suggested them and left it up to me to say yes/no to during the initial inspection. For example my kitchen could definitely use at least 1 additional outlet, I should have probably replaced a 3rd light, and so on. I do respect that they don't try to take you on a ride but since it is probably efficient to do things all at once, may have been helpful to discuss (this was also my bad for not noticing these things before). Rigo did a bunch of smaller things that made a big difference too like taking out the packaging for the lights and the old ones as well as the old electrical panel, clearly labeling all the switches very neatly which was not well done before, answering my questions and explaining things in a way that I (someone with little knowledge about most of this stuff) would understand.

We hired Max Electric for a full knob-and-tube rewire on our home, along with several other…read moreelectrical projects, and the experience was excellent from start to finish! The project did take longer than initially expected due to delays outside of their control, but the quality of the work never wavered. From the beginning, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely thorough. They explained what needed to be done, why it mattered, and what to expect at each step, which made a potentially stressful process feel very manageable. Raushan, the project manager, was great to work with and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He was responsive, organized, and always made sure we were informed and comfortable with the plan. Alex, one of the technicians, worked incredibly hard during the rewire and clearly took pride in his work. Bek, another technician, truly went above and beyond - paying close attention to the details and making sure everything was done perfectly, not just "good enough." Beyond the rewire, they handled multiple additional electrical upgrades and fixes around the house, all done cleanly and correctly. What really stood out was trust. Having a crew in your home for a major electrical project isn't easy, but we always felt confident that they had our best interests in mind. No corner-cutting, no unnecessary upsells, just solid, high-quality work. The crew was respectful, showed up when they said they would, and stayed focused until the job was fully complete. I highly recommend Max Electric and would absolutely hire them again!

BV Electric is what I recommend to all my friends for their electrician needs. BV Electric able to…read moreupdate an old knob-and-tube electrical system to add additional outlets and lines despite being in a 2nd floor condo. Previously there was one two-prong outlet per bedroom, and the 1750sqft condo was on one line. With 4 people living in the condo, this was a disaster because it meant if someone was running the washer or dryer in one room, another person was playing video games or in a Zoom meeting, and a third person had the audacity to attempt to blow-dry their hair or vacuum, the entire condo would lose power and we'd have to navigate down the condo stairs in the dark and outside to reset the breaker. BV Electric put 4 new lines in and 8 or 9 outlets across 4 rooms (the living room and three of the bedrooms) for an affordable price. If we happen to trip a breaker now (which is very rare and our own fault for overloading with too much in one room), at least the entire house doesn't go dark and the Internet remains on as we keep it on a separate line with just the TV. This has saved us a ton of headache, not to mention helped our employment as we stopped spontaneously dropping off business Zoom calls due to losing power across the whole condo.

The appointment was easy and straightforward to schedule using their website, and communication from the company was consistent. They sent a text and email to confirm my appointment date and arrival window, then sent me another text on the day of when the technician was on their way and estimated time of arrival. Kenneth was prompt, professional, and friendly. After a quick walk through, I was given a straightforward quote and he got right into removing my existing fixtures. He was attentive to detail such as making sure my fixture was going the direction I wanted, and also let me know some things he noticed with my existing wiring to keep an eye on. Kenneth worked quickly and helped me to clean up and toss out the packaging for the new lights and the old fixtures when he was done. Thanks Kenneth for helping me get my new lights installed before the new year! Based on this experience, I would definitely reach out to Dalcon again for any future electrical work I might need.

I live in Canada and managed the work remotely by phone, text, and email, after meeting him in person right at the start of the job. I contracted with Kelly after speaking with several other candidate electricians, because he was super communicative and responsive, explained his process and thinking clearly and thoroughly, and had long and broad experience with electrical panel replacement and upgrade projects throughout the SF Bay Area and up and down California. This was Kelly's first project in Palo Alto, and he was persistent and conscientious when navigating all the hoops and roadblocks thrown in his path by the City of Palo Alto permitting and engineering department, which seems to have a very different (and shockingly inefficient and painful) approach from other surrounding municipalities. He collaborated with me when needed to follow up and push things through the City of Palo Alto, and frankly after my own experiences with them, I'm even more impressed with Kelly's perseverance and patience in doing what was needed to get the job done. My mom's live-in caregiver also gave Kelly rave reviews, saying he was always kind and gentlemanly whenever he visited to carry out tasks for the panel replacement job. Kelly did careful and neat work, and the new, upgraded panel works well and looks good and very professionally built. And the quote we received once the full scope of work became clear was honored throughout the project, even though I know Kelly put in a lot of extra hours driving around and haunting the halls of the City of Palo Alto to get all the right paperwork put together and finalized and signed off. Sticking to the original quote speaks to his integrity. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly as a knowledgeable and easy-to-work-with electrician who will do a great job for you on whatever electrical project you have for him. In these days when many people are hard to reach, flaky, or have little pride in their work, Kelly Henson was a breath of fresh air, and I'm grateful to have contracted with him for this work.

We hired Eminent Electrical for a major and expensive project to replace our old knob-and-tube…read moresystem with a brand-new, grounded electrical system. Our top priority was the safety of our home and family as we had a less than a 1 year old at home. What we discovered post-completion was frankly terrifying, and the company's subsequent non-response is completely unacceptable. Alex completely brushed off our concerns Early in the project, we raised concerns when we discovered a cosmetic "shortcut" (a drywall patch done with toilet paper instead of proper material. they literally stuffed toilet paper in the wall then laid joint compound on top). We were personally assured by Alex that even though there were minor appearance issues, they would take absolutely no shortcuts on the actual electrical work. A few months later, while I was installing a simple light fixture, my father and I discovered an unmarked hot wire. In this switch box, a white conductor was being used as the LINE-Hot wire (constantly energized). This unmarked wire could have easily been mistaken for a neutral by anyone working in the box, which could have led to someone getting killed. When I informed Alex, he said I shouldn't be doing wiring, and admitted it should have been taped. He offered to come over and tape the wire (I already did it myself). No apology at all. It feels like they took short cuts throughout the job- if they failed to properly mark a live wire in the first box we opened, we simply cannot trust the integrity of the rest of the expensive rewiring job. When it comes to the safety of your home and family, avoid this company.

We were extremely fortunate to have stumbled onto Avi to take on a recessed lighting project for…read moreour home when just surfing Yelp. We also had about 15+ outlets (6 of which were GFCI additions), and 10+ switches as part of our project. As many know, it's tough to find the right person for the project (big or small) - we met with over 5 other individuals/companies and Avi came off the most impressive with his attention to detail and his price point. So glad we went with Avi as we now feel we have our go-to electrician - I would not want my family working with anyone else. When needing to make cutouts in our ceiling (for the recessed lights) and our walls (for wiring through additional outlets), Avi took extreme care in covering almost every surface with disposable covering to ensure no dust or drywall fragments got on any of our furniture/valuables. After working in each area, he meticulously cleaned the space so that we could return to using that part of the home while he rotated over to working on other parts of our house. He left no trash or debris behind and took all of it with him without asking (though we totally would've been ok with him dumping everything in our garbage can). As for the work itself...everything was done very well. We have had friends, who are general contractors, come by the house and complement how well done the job was. The recessed lights were measured several times for appropriate spacing, and he consulted us twice to confirm their positioning. We knew we found the right guy when he was patching a wall and told us he was not satisfied with the texture not being a 100% match, but to us, it was a very satisfactory 99% match - he was adamant about coming back to re-do it but we really didn't want him to spend the time on it (and we really could not tell the difference because the match was already THAT close). Avi also spent several hours in our garage bending conduits to add outlets throughout the space and ensured each conduit was shaped in a way so as not to interfere with all the tools/devices we have in the garage. We cannot highly recommend Avi enough for any of your home projects whether they are big or small. One of the kindest individuals I have met who is extremely thoughtful and considerate in everything he does.

Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but he genuinely cared about making sure I wasn't left without power while my generator was being repaired. What really impressed me was that Dan provided me with a loaner generator at no charge while mine was being fixed -- something he absolutely didn't have to do. Even more amazing, he ended up not charging me for anything at all. In today's world, that kind of honesty, generosity, and customer service is almost unheard of. It showed me that he truly cares about helping people and standing behind his work rather than just making money. Throughout the entire process, communication was excellent, the turnaround was fast, and I truly felt taken care of the entire time. You can tell Dan takes a tremendous amount of pride in his work and values long-term customer relationships built on trust and integrity. If you need generator repair, electrical work, or a company you can genuinely trust, I highly recommend Charles Electric. Businesses and people like Dan are rare these days, and they absolutely deserve the recognition and support.
