While the house is primarily for family use it is also used as a vacation rental. In June of this year - at the onset of the vacation rental season - we were in a time crunch to change out a rusted, electric main panel before the first renters were due to arrive. I had contacted two of the larger electrical companies in town and at the same time left a telephone message with Cristian at RG Electric. Neither of the two larger electric companies got back to me. Cristian returned my call within the hour and came out to look at the job the same day. Christian was gave me an estimate that day to both replace the existing main panel and add a 100amp sub-panel to the new garage addition. Cristian interfaced with the County and PG&E and completed the work in a neat and professional manner. If you are looking for a highly competent, reliable and personable electrician give Cristian a call.

He was relied on for electrical work and whatever else was needed including carpentry and painting. We have since hired Chris for many small and some larger electrical needs since he gained his electrician's license. Super friendly, very reasonable fees, young family man with two-yr-old. We plan on employing Chris for all future electrical needs. I rarely give 5 stars but Chris deserves this recommendation; the above rating is not a fake!

We were in the market for…read morea whole house propane generator and called a retired electrician in our area, Bryan Wyatt Electric to see who he would recommend​, Bryan gave my husband two referrals​ both in Fort Bragg, I called them both, one never even had the courtesy​ of returning my call, I'm​ so glad they didn't. North Coast Refrigeration and Electric return my call within an hour, the owner Gail Clark asked me where I lived and said that he would be here to look at our situation and give us a bid, he figure out everything we needed and gave us a price before he left, I received​ an email with a contract, proposal in writing the next day. I called Gail Clark the next day told him we would like to put a deposit and have the generator installed, he then transferred​ me to his wife, "Nicci Clark" she took my credit card information and said to me, you and I will be talking often, I will contact PG&E and arrange for them to be there the day we install the generator. I had a call from Nicci as well as an email to let me know that she was having someone come over to pour a cement pad and when that person would be here. A gentleman​​ by the name of Cory was here to pour the cement, he was friendly​, professional and very efficient​. The next call I got from North Coast Refrigeration and Electric was with a date of when the generator was being installed, PG&E was here and three gentlemen​ from NCR&E to do the installation​, they all worked non-stop for about four hours, they each knew what they had to do and no one got in each other​'s way, when they completed the installation​ they went over how the system works, they explain in detail and tried out the generator as if the power had been turned off. I don't often take the time to write reviews but since I was in retail myself for over thirty years, customer service is something I notice and value, this company went above and beyond our expectations and would recommend​ them to anyone that needs a whole house propane generator or any other​ of services they provide. Sincerely, Robert and Cecilia Pinoli

Michael is the estimator that works for Fort Bragg Electric and Plumbing. He stopped by yesterday…read more I told him the history of my "very unusual" kerosene fueled water heater and the central heating system that it is hooked up to. I described my frustration in dealing with "other" local plumbing companies. I soon learned that my Bock water heater is of excellent quality. Michael believed that it could last for additional decades with appropriate attention. While he acknowledged that he was not qualified to work on HVAC equipment, Michael pointed out what was obvious to him, my Bock water heater was apparently in good working condition and there was no need to replace it. He came to this conclusion after I asked him what he would do if he were me. Our interaction was significantly noteworthy for several reasons: #1. I learned that my water heater could serve me for possibly three times as long as I had previously been told. I had been led to believe that a water heater such as mine had a lifespan of approximately 15 years. #2. A potential bill for work that could have been $4,000 or more evaporated. #3. I have established a healthy "client/provider" relationship with a plumber I can talk to. #4. Michael appears to possess an open mind as well as an ability to adapt to his clients. It is comforting to learn that my heating system is functioning properly. Charlie

Escalera Painting: Antonio Escalera was highly recommended…read moreby another local contractor to paint the inside of my 1100 Sq. Ft. remodel. It was completed promptly with very close attention to details. They left the work site very clean and ready to occupy. I was so impressed with the overall inside work, I asked for an estimate for the exterior painting of the entire property. The exterior phase consisted of four buildings with three colors. The prep work was intense and required a lot of caulking cement fiberboard and repairs to older exterior window frames on a 36'x32' garage with 10' walls, plus a 2000 Sq.Ft residence and two additional outbuildings with moderately neglected maintenance. Most of the prep work was handled by Antonio and his lovely wife Jennifer Escalera, and when ready additional help was brought in and closely supervised. And once again, the final product was magnificent with great attention to detail and carefully cleaned and restored work site in a remarkably short period of time, and under budget. I will use Escalera Painting again, absolutely.
