I would give Glo Electric 6 out of 5 stars if I could. I've used them twice so far (soon to be 3 times) Once to install a Tesla Level II charger in my garage where they installed the charger and ran wire to the subpanel. This latest time I lost power to my office/bedroom, and they diagnosed it as a missing/faulty neutral. They came out and ran new wire from the subpanel thru the crawlspace and rewired the outlets isolating that room as it's own circuit instead of also powering miscellaneous plugs and switches outside the room as it was before. I run sensitive computer equipment in my office so I totally appreciated that it was now separate from other circuits in the house that might lead to spikes/dips in power etc. Ryan did the initial diagnosis and then James and Cory did the repair. Each one of them was very friendly, knowledgeable and a great pleasure to talk to. They explained things clearly and were very respectful of my home's interior while they worked, wearing booties inside, being careful moving furniture, and cleaning up completely when they were finished. Their prices were MORE than reasonable which was especially helpful since I'm also doing major construction landscaping at this time and money is tight. My quote was only for the circuit of the bedroom, but I mentioned that I was also having troubles with one light switch in my foyer and they took a quick look and noticed it was wired incorrectly in some way. They quickly fixed the wiring and now the switch works! No charge, very nice! The single biggest point of appreciation (there were many) for me though was that James showed me a burnt, melted wire nut he replaced that had been for some time heating up at one of the junctions because of bad/deteriorated wire contact; It was blackened badly and the housing was melted away and separating from the conducting spring inside. He only checked that wall switch (that was being used as a junction) because he was being very thorough checking everything electrical in the room even though I said I was only having problems with the outlets. He said even though it was still inside the fire retardant housing box in the wall, it could definitely have been the source of a fire. Looking at the condition of the wire nut, I think it was well within the realm of probability that Glo Electric saved me from a potentially VERY bad situation in the future! They took care of several significant issues outside the scope of the quote, but still honored the original quote; For that, and all the other ways this company and it's employees is excellent, Glo Electric is my Electrical Go-To company for life! Highest rating and Highest compliments to how they run their business! and I heartily recommend them to any and all looking to have electrical work done! One of the most important things about being a homeowner is having a go to Plumber, Contractor, and Electrician I had the first two, now I have the electrician! Trifecta! :) David Obando read more

The minute I called Glo Electric and talked to Dave about our issues I felt relieved. He was responsive and informed me what I needed to do. Our insurance company was threatening to cancel our insurance. They gave us a deadline of February 23rd. Dave installed the new electric panel and had the city sign off on the install. Dave and his crew were wonderful to work with and it was completely stress free for us. I would highly recommend Glo Electric. Kathy G read more

This business is a big scam. he did a project for one of my elderly customers. He promised them to change the panel by code with a permit. he charges them over price on this project because they old and now the city inspector shows up and says that all work was done without permits. my customers don't stop to cry because they give him their last money they have. after a week I'm calling him, and he don't answer my phone calls. today he pickup and I explained him the issue he told me to go fu myself and hangup the call. I will never do a business with a guy like him. from here we going to the cslb to put a complanate on him read more

Very disappointing service. Overcharged me to have an electrical box replaced. Did the work, but left a mess behind which I had to spend an extra hour cleaning. Also when my insurance company would not pay for the job, Dave promised to help me with the situation, but then ghosted me. read more

Over a few weeks we lost power to about 20% of our house. Over the course of a few years we had numerous electricians in to try and figure out the problem and correct it, but none could. Finally we found Glo Electric and Dave said, "We'll fix it or no charge." Well, that was a risk worth taking and it paid off with GLOwing results! Now all the lights and the outlets work! Mike and Phillip came to the rescue and we couldn't be happier - we are truly GLOwing and feel so much safer with sound electrical wiring! THANK YOU GLO ELECTRIC for making our home safe and functional again with our lights and hearts GLOwing! Way to GLO!!! (sorry but I can't resist puns) :) read more

I wish I could leave a good review, but I can't. I called Glo to get a repair on a melted 240 outlet for my EV charger in my garage. I gave Dave photos and a detailed description of the issue. He told me he couldn't give me an estimate and that they don't have hourly rates but charge by the job, but his rates were "competitive." He told me a tech would be at my place before 2pm. I sent him a text after 2pm telling him the tech wasn't there yet. He told me I was next. At about 4:30 the tech (Dave's early-20s son) showed up. He looked at the outlet, took the cover off the EVSE and told me it would be $600 to fix. This seemed high, so I told them I'd have to get a competing bid. The tech left, forgetting to put the cover back on the EVSE and taking the screws with him. The competing bid was from the very skilled tech for SESCO electric: $185. And that tech noted a serious safety issue Dave's kid missed. Competitive rates? With whom, Dave? A divorce attorney? One star off for disrespecting me by wasting 4 hours of my day, one star off for tripling the price of the job, one star off for missing the safety issue, and one star off for leaving my EVSE disassembled and losing the screws. If only I could leave a negative star for not offering any kind of apology or explanation. read more

Very disappointing work and service. We got a quote to fix a few things, couple Of different folks showed up, did small fixes and since it was a rainy day said they would come back to finish the rest. took the check and never came back. I have sent emails and left voicemails and no response. Not to mention the two fixes they did to prevent tripping, did not work. read more

Diagnosed our bad power line, worked with PGE to get it fixed. Replaced some interior wiring to improve reliability. Nice family owned company. read more

Mario & Philip did a great job installing a breaker for our new portable AC. With the scorching weather we've been having, the fact that Glo Electric responded so quickly (and not days later like some other companies), is a huge testament to their commitment, dedication & pride in their work. Thank you Mario & Philip for a pleasant and productive experience. And welcome to CA Mario!! read more

I had an excellent service from David J Glover from Glo Electric. After having some other company calling them self the Best in business came to my house and couldn't figure out what was wrong with my heater/air conditioner. David was able to help me fix the issue. Very professional and honest man. I recommend him to all my family and friends. Thanks again David . John B read more

I was having issues with my breaker and James came out right away and fixed the issue. He was extremely polite and very knowledgeable. He explained the problem and how he fixed it. I have called them to come back out for a different reason and the other Electrician (I didn't catch his name), who came out was just as knowledgeable and professional. Definitely recommend! read more

Our lights were flickering and I tried myself to open the panel cover only to hear a massive pop noise. This is when I realized I was out of my league. Five star service beginning to end using this company. Dave came out for an assessment on the electrical at my home. The issue was narrowed down quickly. It turns out its never a good idea to add solar and a car charger to a 50 year old power box. We had a new power box installed the very next day. Everything has been great since. James installed the panel for us in a timely manner. Pricing was transparent and before starting the project. Follow through was flawless. Needless to say thr HOA I live in now has this company's number on speed dial. read more

Two light switches in both bathrooms of my house stopped working and Glo Electric came out and fixed them within about 15 ,minutes. They were great. They were on time, actually a little early, and very good about taking care of the problem. I would recommend this company with no hesitation. I phoned one other electrician on Yelp, that I prefer not to name, who was asking around $400 just to come out for an estimate. Not so with Glo Electric. They're extremely reasonably priced. read more

FIRST class operation. very impressed with Mich Roach's analysis of my electrical project and professionalism. HIGHLY RECOMMENED.

I've worked with them on many of my real estate development projects. They are forward looking and flexible. They follow through. They don't go silent when times get hard. They are responsive and find a way to get approvals and solve problems. I will continue to work with Glo in the future. read more

We called them for help with installing a new breaker and they said they can come the next day between 10am to 12pm but they didn't show up. We called to see if they're coming but they told us our appointment's not on their schedule and said we probably made an appointment with a different company, which we didn't. They came out that afternoon but the electrician said they'd need to come back next week to do the installation. They scheduled an appointment for the following week and said they'd come between 10-12pm. Didn't show up again...so we called and they said our appointments not on their schedule and the earliest they can come out is the following Monday. Hopefully they show up next week but it's very frustrating because this happened twice and we carved out time during the day so we'd be home when they arrive... read more

James was a pleasure to work with! He was very professional, knowledgeable, and got my job done in a timely matter. I would definitely hire Glo Electric for future work! Thanks read more

Such a great company. Dave and James are truly standup guys. They went out of their way to help my family on a holiday when nobody could. If you're looking for the best in the industry, look no further. The experience was perfect from beginning to end. -Iceman read more

I knocked over a lamp and somehow messed up the electricity for almost my entire upstairs. After trying to Google and not finding anyone to help, I remembered Yelp. Glo answered within minutes and less than an hour later [at 9:45pm on the Saturday after Thanksgiving no less] Ryan was here to figure out what was wrong. A little less than an hour after that we had power. So thankful for them. They were up front about cost and Ryan explained what happened and answered my questions about possible future issues. 10/10 recommend. read more

Don't trust this company. I was told they would show up. Unfortunately they never showed up.

Electrician James was awesome! He called to advise he was on his way and showed up on time. He was so helpful and had a positive personality. Not only did he resolve our electrical issue in 10 minutes on a Sunday morning, he provided the best customer service ever! Would highly recommend Glo Electric to anyone who needs an Excellent electrician. Very happy, happy customers, Ronnie and Julie read more

They were very nice and professional. James and his apprentice spent at least an hour looking for the reason i smelled burning wires he changed somthing on one of the wires, and told me to call him if i smelled it again. They were gor an hour and didnt charge me . Will definitely use them agsin read more

Just to close the loop, the issue was identified by another electrical handyman as the remote control receiver was bad. The receiver with new remote was $30 replacement from amazon. If I had believed Glo electric it would be $400 labor + cost of a new fan. read more

He didn't show up for an appointment. I tried to call and leave voicemails many times, but never got a response. I would NEVER recommend. read more

Prompt response from company and great service. We needed a replacement breaker in our newish panel and they handled it quickly. Jesus did a great job with our installation read more

Glo Electric was the only company that answered the phone after hours. There are very few electricians open 24 hours and most companies listed as 24 hours did not pick up or return my call. James and his team came by the next morning and got to work right away. They are friendly, super easy to work with, and James is a second generation electrician so he really knows everything about electrical work. I highly recommend Glo Electric! read more

David went above and beyond in helping us with our Guest House New Build project. Work involved upgrading existing Electrical Panel, Coordinating with PG&E to upgrade service to 200 Amp, and planning out and designing electrical service for the Guest house.

If you are planning on starting a ADU project or a Home extension/addition, I would recommend getting David onboard very early on in the process for guidance with Electrical work! Thank you David! read more

Our Solar panel fried our main power hub to our house December 2019. Solar company could care less, but David and Glo Electric were out at my house within 2 hours and fixed it. Then I got the bill for what the repairs would be to fully rebuild the main power panel . I paid it and got a brand new main power hub panel set up by Glo Electric. I filed my insurance claim and David at Glo Electric talked with my insurance company and I received a check in the mail that paid for everything minus my deductible. David and Glo Electric helped us out a ton and we thank them for it and now I have a safe reliable, modern electric panel. Couldn't have asked for anything more. read more

I was very impressed with the knowledge and service Dave, James, and RJ provided. We had issues with a electric dryer that the appliance company refused to accept responsibility for. GLO completed a detailed inspection and found the root of the problem to be ground wire in the dryer. They also did several odd electrical jobs that were on my to do list. Great job guys. Thank you very much. read more

David and his crew were excellent. We had a major electrical panel problem with a high voltage/high amperage service. They moved quickly and got us back up and running in record time. I will definitely use them again. read more

Glover Electric replaced my electrical service panel in January 2019. The installation was well done but the panel was not properly reconnected to my automatic transfer switch which permitted a backup generator to power the house when PGE power went out. The transfer switch was stuck on backup generator and would not reconnect to PGE when their power was on. Glover came back out and did a hard-wire bypass of the automatic transfer switch to PGE thereby rendering useless the backup generator. I thereafter attempted to contact Glover to fix the automatic transfer switch with no success. Glover eventually came to my house, took a few pictures and left. The next day he informed me (after I called him) that the transfer switch was improperly installed and it would cost $6495 for him to fix it. I declined his offer and shortly thereafter found Alternative Power and Electric in Boulder Creek who fixed the automatic transfer switch for $500. read more

We had our electrical panel replaced with Glo Electric and received excellent workmanship and amazing customer service. Despite the last minute, same day request, James came to us on time and finished the job professionally. The job he delivered was neat, fast and impressively done. I would definitely call GLO electric again for our next job and would recommend them to anyone. read more
