After looking on Yelp, my go-to for reliable referrals, I found Nickell Electric. This was no disappointment, the job was done lickety-split and to the specifications needed. Timely, communicative, down to earth, reasonable pricing, and job done right! If you are in need of some electrical work, I cannot recommend Nickell Electric enough.

First of all, when inspector came to sign off, he said the main panel was left open and live wires…read more Had to call him back to fix it , he then stole some copper wiring that he said was worth over $450 and refused to bring it back. He had to access through some dry wall, which I okd thinking he would patch it back up, but that was not the case. He just left it open.

This company (if memory serves me correctly) is comprised of six brothers. We had them come out…read moreand move a lighting fixture for us. Whilst putting the pieces back on the fixture, one of the "brothers" dropped a piece, shattering it, and did not even bother to apologize. What? A so-called professional not apologizing for breaking an heirloom piece on a lighting fixture? Really? So what was this guy's trip anyway? Did he have a "chip" on his shoulder bc we worked over 50 years to acquire a few "nice" things? And this fixture was given to us to boot! Then, this same employee had to go into the attic - and as luck would have it - I just happened to wander into the room where the attic access is, and he had not taken the time to replace the attic access cover. So, alarmed I phoned the contact person who apologized profusely for this employee's lack of professionalism. Refreshing. Absolutely refreshing. The job finally got done, and we had asked them to match the bulbs of the fixture with the dimmer switch which actually never happened. Instead, they gave us a printout of bulb-types that might work and left it at that. Obviously, it never happened. If you've ever tried to find the numbers on bulbs to match a particular fixture/dimmer switch - good luck. For us, it was impossible. After requesting a receipt for monies paid for this job which exceeded $1,000 - the contact said one would be provided and left in the mailbox. That receipt was never received. Guess we're hoping for too much these days for a businessman to keep his word...and consequently we would be quite hesitant to recommend this company, most sadly. They say "actions speak louder than words" and their "action/s" (behavior) most certainly did. Don't you think so???

They wanted us to cut a hole in the garage ceiling drywall, before requesting more time for the Esqueda Electrical to check the problem. We hire another person, who found the wiring problem, (GFI), and replaced it without cutting a hole in the ceiling drywall. They, Esqueda, sent out, most likely, a non certified, electrician.

Kelly replaced and upgraded the ancient electrical panels and service on my elderly mom's home in…read morePalo Alto in late 2025/early 2026. 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.

After assessing the job, he actually gave me an even better price for installing my Tesla Level 2 charger. He was professional, friendly, and took the time to explain everything about the installation. His attention to detail and craftsmanship really stood out--he went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. Overall, it was a great experience. I highly recommend Gonzales Electric to anyone in need of electrical work, and I'll definitely be reaching out again for future projects.

I am SO grateful I found Ed and Gonzalez Electric…read more The short version of why I needed help: yesterday, power went out to a section of my house and when I went to the breaker box to reset, it was audibly sizzling (!!!!!) and smelled like burning fish. I cut the power to the whole house in a panic, then sat there, not totally sure what to do because it was after 5 PM and rapidly getting dark, but hey. . . at least the sizzling had stopped (tiny victories). Gonzalez Electric was one of the first Yelp hits and once I saw Ed's great reviews, I gave him a call. He answered right away, was kind, listened to what happened, and said he'd be right out. Ed arrived at my place within half an hour and got to work. Ed's diagnosis of what was wrong was clear, professional, and he took the time to answer all of my questions. He even provided options for more economical vs longer term fixes. What I really appreciate though is how fair his pricing was--- the truth is that I was in a bad situation: no power, a sizzling breaker box, and a single woman alone at home in the darkness. He could have literally charged me anything and I would have probably paid it because hey, what choice did I have? But Ed didn't do that. He was VERY fair, he gave me options, he was just an all around wonderful person to work with and I am definitely saving his info for all future electrical work. He got everything fixed up before long and we are back to normal over here before I even got dinner on the stove for the night. SO grateful to Ed and if you need any electrical work done, don't hesitate to give him a call.
