I needed to replace some fluorescent lights and took the opportunity to upgrade to LED. I found Mikhail on Yelp and he was super prompt in answering my request, he showed up on time on a Sunday and did the rewiring quickly, all for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. read more

When the florescent light in my bathroom started flickering wildly, I was hoping I could replace it myself with a plug-and-play light tube. Unfortunately I discovered I couldn't remove it, so I put out a request for an electrician on Yelp. I received four responses, but Mikhail was the only one who was willing to talk to me over the phone. We set up an appointment the following morning, and he was punctual. Mikhail assessed I have a ballast which required dismantling the fixture and inserting a ballast bypass tube. He did the entire job in about 25 minutes because he bought the necessary 48-inch tube beforehand. He even helped clean my dusty ceiling ventilator. Total cost was $200. I'd definitely recommend him for handy jobs beyond the grasp of an electrical luddite. Yes, I'm talking about me. RELATED - Interested in other services I found on Yelp Project?

Mikhail was exceedingly polite and extremely quick to respond requiring an issue I had with two wall mounted lights in the living room. As it turned out, I missed the most obvious fix: two simultaneously failing bulbs... Mikhail quickly diagnosed the issue (and my stupidity) with more grace than I deserved. He did not charge me for his visit which I thought was super classy. Would highly recommend! read more

I had an electrical issue where half of the outlets in the kitchen abruptly stopped working. The outlets included the one for the gas stove and for the overhead fan, making this a HIGH PRIORITY ISSUE for the residents of the house. During my attempts to "problem solve" the issue, I found that none of the circuit breakers were tripped. I reset them all anyway. I reset the one GFCI outlet I found in the kitchen. My attempts were to no avail. I promptly solicited electricians via Yelp. Mikhail responded quickly on Sunday evening. Mikhail met me as scheduled on Monday morning. He examined the breaker panel and recommended an overdue upgrade. FYI, he does not do this type of work but recommended I go through Yelp to find a good contractor who does. He also provided me a ballpark estimate of what it should cost which is helpful so I have a baseline of what it should cost. In the end, it was a fairly quick and easy resolution to the kitchen issue. A GFCI outlet in the kitchen which I did not see had tripped. I reset one GFCI outlet earlier, but there was a second one that was tucked behind a countertop appliance. Of course that was the one that tripped. All of the outlets that stopped working were daisy chained to this GFCI outlet. Mikhail replaced the outlet for me to mitigate future issues. Mikhail's cost was very reasonable and he was very informative. I also appreciate his candor about necessary electrical upgrades I need to consider for the house, especially since he recommended work that he does not normally do so his recommendations were not intended to boost his own revenue. Beyond his technical skill, Mikhail is also very personable and open to answer questions. Much appreciated. read more

My garage tube lights have been buzzing and intermittently turning off for awhile now, I thought the ballast was failing, and then last night it started smoking and smelt like burnt plastic! I turned it off, took out the bulbs, and researched/set up an appointment for the next day with Mikhail. Rather than replace the burnt out ballast, which is old technology for fluorescent lights, we had the ballast removed and converted it to hardwired led lights. Separately from that issue he also replaced an old outdoor light fixture that wouldn't turn on from the indoor light switch anymore. Glad to have those done! :) Mikhail was polite, knowledgeable, and clearly explained options and what he was doing. He did excellent work and I wouldn't hesitate to contact him again for other electrical jobs I have around the house :) I would recommend him if you need something done too :) read more

Mikhail was great. Great communication, reasonable price, great work. Thank you. He has 5 stars for a reason. read more

Mikhail was awesome! Super kind, showed up quickly, solved the issues, and charged a reasonable price.

Great experience with Mikhail. He immediately figured out our electrical issues and provided us with options depending on any upgrades. For one item that wasn't available until a couple of weeks, he showed us how easy it was to remove and replace ourselves once received. He checked our breakers also to make sure they were good to go. So glad to finally have our light working again. I would definitely use his services again for anything electrical and highly recommend! read more

Michael came by to help me figure out a problem with flickering lights that had been bothering us for a long time. He quickly identified that this is most likely an issue on the PG&E side. We called PG&E and it turned out the transformer on our street was damaged and needed to be replaced. Michael didn't charge for any of this advice and we will definitely be using him again in the future. So helpful!! read more

Mikhail Electrical Services - New transformer - Electricians Near Me

Mikhail was the first to respond, and the first to come out to give an estimate. It was a very fair price, so I decided to go with him within that day. Between him and I agreeing to move forward, he answered some questions I had over text, I ordered an EV charger that could come before the weekend and asked if he could do it on Friday. He was able to, he showed up when he said he would and did the whole thing quickly. He is also a personable guy to talk with, and I he suggested a range of things I could do that are optional for future projects to solve other issues. I would gladly reach out to him the next time I have an electrical project. I highly recommend him. read more

Mikhail responded to my inquiry with 10 minutes and arrived exactly at the time he said he would. Within 5 minutes he had assessed and traced the problem to outside of my home. So bittersweet news... now I have to wait for PGE to show up on Christmas Eve. ‍ read more

Mikhail is amazing! We lost power to part of our house yesterday, with none of our circuit breakers tripped including the main. So something was obviously going wrong beyond what we could see...and we were concerned of course about any potential fire hazards that we might be unaware of. We called Mikhail around 8:30 am today, and he offered to come take a look at no cost at 10 am same-day. In a few minutes he identified the issue (corroded-looking busbar that created a bad contact with the main breaker...leading to arcing and the main breaker melting). Because our home was built in the 1970s, the busbar in question is no longer manufactured, and replacing it would have basically required either: 1) someone who could extract the corroded busbar, work the metal to *hopefully* create more use-able length to maintain sufficient breaker contact, then reinstall for immediate power until we could work out option 2... 2) replacing the entire electrical panel..which Mikhail said could take up to 1.5 months due to permitting, our HOA, etc. Either way...we were prepared to not have full electricity and live without a stove and/or dryer until someone could help us find a safe solution. Mikhail clearly laid out the scenarios for us, both of which were suggested with caution and our safety (and home safety) in mind. The quickest option back to electricity was #1 - but he still mentioned that it might not work, and provided options if that were the case. After 1 hour, he managed to not only work our busbar so that it was useable again--but installed a safer main breaker (70 amps vs. 100) that was better suited for our 1970s electrical system. He explained the reasoning behind everything, and made sure we were okay with his solutions before moving further. We still plan to have our main panel replaced asap, but for now have power again (safely!!) without major concerns for breaker melt-downs or fire hazards. Mikhail is honest, responsive, quick, thoughtful and experienced, and encouraged us to research price quotes from other electricians for our eventual full panel replacement. I definitely feel like we can trust him with our electrical needs and highly recommend him! read more

We had multiple outlets in our kitchen go out and our home warranty sent 4 electricians that could not find the problem nor fix the issue. I called Mikhail on a Tuesday and he was able to come out the following day first thing in the morning right away at a time that was convenient for us. He diagnosed and fixed the issue all in ONE visit. He was very professional and thorough - both on the phone and in person. He kept us informed every step of the way as he was diagnosing the problem and made it easy to understand what was needed to be fixed. He was prompt and right on time for our appointment. He also provided an invoice in a timely manner after completing the job. When you think about hiring an electrician, you want Mikhail!!

Mikhail was very responsive and extremely prompt.

He proactively found a significant problem and made my house safer. Also, the other quotes I got for the same work came in significantly higher, and didn't include the repairing the circuit breaker connection. He'll get my business in the future for sure. read more
