Joaquin and Gabe were great to work with, they were prompt, very professional and friendly , and ...... they knew their stuff. We are 80 year-old seniors....... They fixed our smoke detectors and are now returning to service/tune up our propane generator. We could not be happier. We thought we needed new smoke detectors, but Joaquin fixed us up....... he could have easily sold us new ones but he made an easy fix and saved us a bunch of money....breath of fresh air!! read more

Gabe, from Lightland Electric has been to my home several times. He is the best! Professional, kind and very helpful. Easy to communicate with and quick to respond. I appreciate Lightland Electric. read more

Hello, I manage a lot of properties and projects. I hired Lightland to work on a difficult project to swap and upgrade electrical feeds to two commercial units and install a new breaker panel. The old 1957 system had been hacked to pieces by former businesses in the space. I could not make sense of a lot of it. I have included before photos. We found wire splices buried in the wall and even a junction box buried in there too! Be sure to read the captions so as not to mix up before and after the work! Gabe, David, and Joaquin were fantastic. Gabe is well respected by the City of Watsonville and got us through the permit process easily. Final comments from the inspector were minimal, just a cover change and labeling some spare wires. As a project manager, I have used a lot of electricians. These folks are among the best. I have included many photos of the finished work prior to labeling everything. David and Joaquin did most of the work and it's tip top. Attached are photos of the new panel and new feed lines on the building roof. read more

Excellent service by Gabe. I had a short notice need for houseful of smoke/carbon alarm installs. Phone answered promptly and he said he'd fit me in to next day's schedule. I'll be glad to call again if / when I have another job. read more

It's not always an easy task - to find a high quality service provider that you feel you can trust. This is why our experience with Lightland Electric was such a wonderful surprise!! I made several calls as I was looking for an electrician that I could send to my elderly mother's home to assess and address a potential safety concern. From the start, my conversation with Gabe stood out and had me feeling confident that they would be able to take care of what was needed in a timely manner and for fair price - they did not disappoint. Our experience with Gabe and his team far exceeded our hopes with both their professionalism and commitment to customer service; we could not have been happier which has guarenteed that we will call them again and and urge you to do the same! read more

Gabe was wonderful!!! A prior "electrician" replaced our panel two weeks earlier and there was no end of code violations and circuit problems. Gabe replaced the panel again with a lot more room for breakers. He added ground rods, fixed all of the broken circuits and code violations, ang got everything working. The system is working wonderfully. Kudos to Gabe and his team!!! read more

Gabe and his team (Joaquin and David) were simply incredible. We enjoyed every moment of working with them. Their work was phenomenal, and they communicated as best as one could hope. Would use for anything and everything even remotely within their scope. read more

Gabe of Lightland Electric is an amazing guy. He first came out to my house for an emergency situation that he quickly dispatched. I was so impressed with his knowledge, proficiency, skill, and kindness that I decided to hire him to replace my old & dangerous main panel. Gabe explained the process to me in detail. His depth of knowledge is incredible, as is his patience. When the day came, he and his great crew came on time, and worked incredibly hard to get my huge old panel out and the new one in. He kept me posted on the progress throughout. He did of lot of extra detail work that I wouldn't have even known to ask for. He is meticulous and careful, and so competent he made me feel completely comfortable with the process. He did everything he said he would do, and more, and he and his crew were a delight to work for. I give him my absolute highest recommendation. I would trust him with any job, without a doubt. He's just that good. And he is very kind and reasonable too. All around great experience. read more

Gabe is great! He gave an amazing estimate over the phone and stuck to it! He was very knowledgeable with my situation which was a recalled Sylvania sub panel. He gave me a next day appointment and completed the work in the same day. I will rest easier knowing that we are safe with the new sub panel. Thank you Gave and God bless! read more

Gabe and his team just did some electrical work at my house and we could not be happier with the results. They added new circuits and outlets in each room, wired an exterior light box and added an EV charger. He's very communicative, extremely reasonably priced and I felt very comfortable leaving them at my place to do the work while I went out of town. He was great at explaining different options and avenues we could take while talking through the job. We will definitely be using them again when we need electrical work. read more

I have hired Gabe, from Lightland Electric, for two different projects and was thoroughly impressed both times. The first time was for installing a 240 outlet in my garage for an electric car a couple years ago, and the most recent time was last week to repair two hallway light switches after my own botched attempt. After the light switch repair, an issue with an outlet was discovered. Gabe promptly set an appointment to return to take a look. While he was there, I asked if he had time to also look at an exterior security light with which I was unsuccessful in getting to work after changing the light bulb earlier that morning. He went above and beyond taking a look at the exterior light! He readjusted the fixture, reset the sensor settings and angle, cleaned up the old caulking... without charging me extra. As a property manager, I've worked with multiple electricians. What sets Gabe apart is his professionalism and personality. He was a pleasure to converse with and I even found out that our kids have schools in common. He was also very personable toward my tenant who was on the way out. He was very responsive by phone and text and provided a good window of arrival time. I highly recommend Gabe and Lightland Electric for any of your electrical needs. He is a true professional and a genuine pleasure to work with. read more

Gabe just reached out to me to explain why he did not get back to me. He explained that he had some serious health issues that really set him back. I appreciated that he reach out to me, although this was 6 weeks after his initial site visit. read more

I needed to upgrade my electrical panels and was in search for a contractor who was reliable, trustworthy and dependable. Gabe and his team by far went above and beyond my expectations. Gabe explained exactly what he can and cannot do (no surprise in the aftermath) , his bid was exactly in line with my expectations and ensured that he had all the materials (new panels, etc) in his possession prior to starting the work. When the team arrived at my house they were respectful, polite and explained what would transpire during the day (again, no surprises). Everything happened like clockwork. I highly recommend Gabe and his team for those of us who appreciate customer service, fair cost and timely work. Thank you so much and I look forward to hiring your team again for all my electrical needs. read more

I called and received a response quickly. The next day Rafa was at my house, he fixed the faulty switch with no problems. The service was prompt, professional and effective. Recommend! read more

We had a critical electrical project for our beach house during stormageddon in January 2019. I had not used Lightland before but I took a chance based on the extremely positive reviews. In spite of the rain and the wind Gabe and his crew came right out and did an excellent job in upgrading our electric panels. I was unable to be present so Gabe sent me photos of the finished job complete with a pristine work area - they are extremely tidy! We handled the entire process electronically which was massively helpful. We have a few more non-emergency projects needed for the house and we plan to use Lightland Electric again and in the future as our go to electric company. And, Gabe is VERY friendly and kind. read more

We were very pleased with the customer service and installation process. We had 2 light fixtures installed and a light switch repaired. We were given a reasonable quote ahead of time. The electrician was punctual, courteous, and professional. We were missing a part because, as it turns out, our ceiling is at an angle. Our electrician was nice enough to come back the next morning to complete one of our three projects (at no extra cost). I highly recommend this company! read more

We hired them to resplice our entire house. They were reasonably priced, arrived when scheduled, and were extremely polite. It's difficult sometimes inviting people into your home, but they were considerate and respectful the entire time. They finished sooner than expected and I am very happy with their work. We had a switch that we hadn't been able to figure out since moving in - but they solved our question and showed us we had a 3-way switch for our living room lamp! I will be hiring them for all my future electrical needs - and have referred them to many friends! read more

Didn't answer my phone call the first time but returned my call promptly which is more than any other electricians out there. They came out as scheduled on time wearing masks given the circumstances. Thoroughly explained the bid and what they had to do to accomplish what I was looking for. I was on a time crunch to get my task completed and they were able to accommodate me. I will definitely be calling them for all my future electrical needs! read more

Lightland Electric did a great job replacing the electric panel and adding a new line at my house. They arrived as scheduled and completed the work in the estimated time. The team was cheerful and worked well together, and they coordinated amazingly well with the county inspector and PG&E. In years since the panel upgrade, I contracted with them twice on other projects which they did well, and cheerfully, most recently to replace receptacles. I highly recommend them. read more

I needed a 240v outlet added to my garage for a level 2 charger for my Chevy Bolt EV. Jered was able to come out the same day as I called. Unfortunately for him I was running late getting home, and I didn't realize there were more than 1 type of dryer outlet. He was able to go and pick the correct plug after showing him the L2 charger I purchased and in no time was able to get everything wired up and tested. I appreciate his professionalism and patience in my own mishaps. Everything was cleaned up and finished quickly for a great price. I'd recommend them again and will consider them first for any future projects. read more

Showed up same day, wore a mask, kept distance was friendly and most importantly gave a fair and honest assessment. I will definitely use again in the future and definitely recommend. Thanks, Jared. read more

No call back, nothing. Tried to schedule an appointment two times. Disappointed by the lack of professionalism. I wish I could write something positive but I can't since the end began at the start. I read reviews and everything seemed positive, but it has not been my experience. read more

I called Lightland Electric in the morning with an emergency and Jared came out later that afternoon after his other appointments. My properties water pressure tank stopped working the day before & the plumber found it was an electrical issue. I had no water coming into my house so I was very appreciative that Jared fit me in his schedule and at a decent price. Thank you . read more

We had an appointment with another electrician who had great reviews. He never showed up and never called, so we contacted Lightland. Jared came out and we were blown away by the level of customer service. He was professional and friendly, but more importantly, he was a darn good electrician. We had him install several lights and ceiling fans, and replace a dimmer switch. The price for all the work was so good. Believe me, we had a few other quotes and none of them came close to Lightland. They are definitely our go-to electrician. It's hard to find good, trustworthy professionals, so when you do find one, you want to let everyone know how awesome they are. read more

We had a small problem with an outdoor outlet. Jered quickly diagnosed the problem and in no time had the outlet providing electricity. We were so impressed with his knowledge, customer service and punctuality. We will always call Lightland for any electrical project or repair. We highly recommend Lightland, you will not be disappointed. read more

We were having issues with our kitchen If too many things were on at once, it would trip the breakers. It's an older home. Gabe came out and was very thorough and great personality. He checked everything thing carefully and decided we had an issue at the breaker box and did some rewiring and all is good. Clean, professional, thorough, and friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Gabe & Jared are the Superheros of anything Electric! I was getting some work done on my stairway and no electrician was ready to come and have a look at the minuscule job that I needed help with at the time. It took just one call and Gabe dropped by the same day and not just did the work, but since it took him all but 10 mins, didn't take any $$ for it. That was back in 2016. Ever since, Gabe & Jared have worked on multiple projects for me. From installing ceiling fans to updating the electric panel to installing an outlet for my Tesla charger to installing outdoor lighting for the front of the house as well as my backyard to resplice our entire house, they've done it all on time, professionally and on a very strict budget. What I've come to appreciate about them is No job is too small, they always make time, they're courteous, professional, all at a great price. read more

Gabe did an amazing job with our shop here in Watsonville (ATG Rehab). We got a number of quotes before settling on Lightland; it was their price and friendly attitude that won us over. He did the evaluation at no cost which was great compared to some other companies that were requesting $100 just to give us an estimate. The work was done quickly and professionally, no complaints at all. All of our future lighting repairs will be done through them in the future. Thanks Gabe! read more

Gabe and his team were amazing! We live in So. California and hired Gabe to move an electrical panel box for my elderly mother in Carmel, CA. My husband's a licensed contractor of 33 years, so when he screened 4 different electrical contractors he knew Gabe was the right one. He then drove up and met Gabe when the work was done, watching everything they did. Their work was professional, quick, reasonably priced and spot on. We have now told my mom that Lightland Electric is the only electrician for her to use. THANK YOU GABE!! read more

Very professional, Mike as the journeyman electrician who went above and beyond what you expect from an electrician. Not only an expert in electrical, but has extensive experience In carpentry and drywall repair. Making them a "one stop shop". It really saved us time and money.

Lightland Electric was referred to me by anther contractor that I had recently worked with. I was wanting to install some new outdoor lighting on my back porch, because the lights that were there before just weren't cutting it. So I placed a call and scheduled a time for Gabe to come out. He was able to provide me with a fair, and affordable quote so I went ahead and hired him for the job. The whole process from start to finish was perfect and easy.

We had a rental property where the tenant damaged the electric panel. Our real estate agent suggested Lightland, and we met with Gabe. Instant good feeling meeting him. He and his crew replaced the panel, and not only was it brand new, they replaced missing wood trim around the panel, and primed the wood for painting. After PG&E turned the electricity back on, Gabe stopped by himself to check on the house. I'm an electronic engineer, and appreciate good work. And that was exactly what I got. A great job. Thanks! read more

First class by far! I called Gabe on short notice today for an electrical outage in my attic. Jared came out and located a wire that had popped out due to a previous electrician's work. He fixed the issue and restored power giving me a piece of mind. Excellent work! Can't say enough good things about Gabe and his team. They have done other projects for me and did an awesome job! I won't call anybody else for my electrical needs. Give them a call, you won't be disappointed! - JC read more

Gabe is great to work with. I have a rental in Santa Cruz with very old electrical wiring in the garage. Gabe helped to update the system and pass city inspection on a very timely manner, with a reasonable price. The best thing is I got everything done just via calls and texting, Gabe facilitated everything with my tenants, hassle free for me. 5 star and will for sure call him again for anything in the future. I would definitely recommend him to anyone need a licensed electrician. read more
