Here's my honest review of Nichol's Electric - EV Charging specialists in El Dorado Hills, Folsom and the entire Sacramento area. We had an amazing experience with Nichols Electric ! Jeremy responded to my Yelp quote request almost instantly--not with a generic email, but with a personal phone call. Right away, I could tell how personable and professional he is. He asked great questions about our EV charging project, walked me through the options, and even gave practical advice on what he would do if it were his own garage. His pricing was very fair and transparent--no surprises, just honest work at a flat rate. Communication was excellent throughout; he asked for photos of our panel to save us time, confirmed availability, and kept us updated on his ETA the day of the job. Thanks to Jeremy and his team, our new EV charger was installed quickly and correctly. We're now able to "fast charge" from the comfort of our home just days after buying our EV. If you're looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and fair electrician--especially for EV charger installs--call Nichols Electric. Jeremy goes above and beyond, and I'd recommend him without hesitation. read more

Awesome communication, excellent work. Very professional and knew what they were doing.

Taylor was professional and quick. Got the work done within the time frame and price that I was originally quoted.

Responded to a Yelp project request, answered all my many... many questions very promptly. Price came back lower than a SMUD contractor that included the smud rebate, as well as better rate than the other bids. Opted for a 14-50 plug cause I already had a tesla mobile charger, and looks great and charging ~10x faster. Yelp license confirmed and Yelp warranty is also nice for peace of mind. Thanks for the quick turn around! read more

I found Jeremy on Yelp and gave him a call. Had him come out to quote me on a residential Sprinkler electrical job. He was Jeremy on the spot the next day n was running a little behind and gave me a heads up. He came out n bid the job n bid it a tad to low so I gave him a bit more. He came out the next day and got right on it with 2 of his stud sons with the get her done yesterday type attitude. They cleaned up real good n need to come finish up but did what they had to do until the sprinklers are complete. He asked for a deposit after he was done and I gave him more then he asked for.. Looking forward to working with this team for I have been thru a few companies out here doing flips n This team is awesome 5star for sure So far .... Is this to good to be true??! Stay tuned for I shall keep you updated. Your Number one So Far my man Keep up the awesome work with good pricing and get her done now type mentality read more

Yelpers - Sorry for the novel below but Jeremy and the team at Nichols Electric deserves much more in gratitude from me than a token paragraph on Yelp saying they're great guys even if that's true. If you read nothing else below please know that Jeremy and Nichols Electric are a small, well experienced, high quality electrician crew and they're WORTH EVERY PENNY! Some background to explain why I am so impressed with Nichols Electric; I am a project manager with 20 years experience and former general manager of a specialty commercial install company. I managed sales/service/installs etc. with multi-skilled trade techs including plumbing, electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, in house and externally via subcontractors. I'm also a true DIY nut. I can fix or install most things however complex they are and have paid maybe 3 other contractors in the last 25 years to work on my home/vehicles. I don't cut corners for money on product or building code and expect results to meet a high standard.... If I screw up... I redo it. I know talent when i meet them and if a pro doesn't have a good plan on a repair or install (or know what they're doing...) I can be brutal to deal with. I am a new customer and now steadfast advocate of Nichols Electric! I called Jeremy the owner and enlisted his crew in December after placing a number of calls to local electricians for help in saving my large solar and whole home battery project which had a hard end of year deadline. This job included wiring the ends of solar panels and installing 3 batteries, 2 large inverters and a gateway for whole home backup. Way too much work for any sane/reasonable person to attempt alone, much less under a tight deadline. Although I was knowledgeable on the gear to be installed I was willing to employ a professional electrician for the hookup of equipment to grid and between components. My goal was to ensure things were all done correctly and by my deadline. I did not want to burn my house down, fail my building inspection or electrocute myself in an attempt to save money (or my pride!) on this project which exceeded my personal DIY experience and comfort level. Jeremy fielded my call for an estimate for the 200 amp hookup of an AC disconnect required by PG&E to connect my heavy electrical equipment for whole home backup while out of town. Several other companies simply ran away or didn't engage in a conversation (we can't, won't, don't....) when they heard the word "solar" (which was not the house side electrical system I needed done) or just gave me a ridiculously expensive bid to avoid the work. After a few minutes on the phone with Jeremy and me sending some details and pictures he gave me a ballpark range which was fair and reflected the work I knew would be involved. We scheduled a site walk at my home, covered what I requested, and he answered my many questions well. Jeremy spent time absorbing the totality of not only what I asked of him but the whole project I was undertaking - I didn't know how much I appreciated that at the time. He expressed interest in mounting all my indoor/outdoor electrical gear at ground level and hooking up all the major electrical which was more than I initially wanted. I said sure, quote me but be willing to break out what I want (disconnect, junction box, meter and heavy electrical between components) versus what he was capable of doing. He under promised and overdelivered by providing a quote quickly that was fair for the scope of work we agreed on - a hallmark of a solid tradesman and business owner. Staring down a 3 week timeline with the holidays fast approaching I bit the bullet and went forward with the bigger quote to mount all gear and terminate the electrical with Nichols - I slept far better having asked for help even though I have trust issues and I'm handing $50K of brand new equipment I bought to a relative stranger. We scheduled quickly and they showed up on time. Any concerns I had vanished when I observed their work. Jeremy, Taylor, and his 2 sons that apprentice with him showed up and dug in. They operated as a great team, navigated very tight clearances, executed to code standards beautifully and were a pleasure to deal with. I had most parts already onsite and we quickly fielded anything that popped up that they needed. 4 full work days and some change later I have the fully functional system my family has dreamed of! We had to modify the scope of Nichols work a little (OK, a lot - I was behind and they were very helpful and much better than me at many things as professionals) so the bill was adjusted with discussion beforehand along the way and it was a very worthy value for what they got done for me. Simply put I would have failed without them. DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL NICHOLS ELECTRIC! I got my final inspection done on the 1st pass on the last day of 2025 after numerous challenges. Thanks to Jeremy and your crew for all the excellent work!!! read more

Nichols and his team installed a sub-box in our complex, and it was a great experience from start to finish! The installation team were professional, flexible respectful, and competent. They explained to us every step of what they were doing, answered all our questions, and made sure that everything was installed safely and up to code. Installation was neat, on time, and did not cause much disruption to residents. It's rare to find a service that combines expertise with such great customer care, and I'm very impressed. Highly recommend for anyone needing sub-box installation in a residential complex! read more

This summer we needed several electrical updates to our "new to us" home in Ione. The crew came in prepared to work, (on time I need to add) which necessitated a crawl in the attic during that Summer hell week of 2024. All work was completed professionally & efficiently and without complaint or question of what we wanted done. We later decided on two more projects which required a couple more visits. Again, showing up as scheduled & ready to finish these smaller projects as requested. We both highly recommend Nichols Electric. Pricing was extremely fair & we especially appreciated working with this "proud to be family owned" company. We will definitely request their services for any more electrical updates. read more

I hired Nichols to diagnose and repair a series of bizarre power issues in my older home. They were first to respond. They showed up on time, were friendly, doggedly fixed the problem and were very reasonably priced. Usually because of the neighborhood I live in people get up-charged - but Nichols didn't do that. They gave me a more than fair price and were responsive and customer oriented the entire time. Great crew and quality work. read more

They were very responsive, provided a reasonable estimate, arrived on time, we're vere professional and completed in a reasonable time. The work results were exceptional. I highly recommend this firm for all your electrical needs. read more
