I found Shane and SE Electric through a combination of Yelp reviews and recommendations from people…read morein local Facebook groups, and I'm so glad I did! Shane came out personally for the initial walkthrough and took the time to explain the complexity of installing a generator at my home, especially since I have two electrical panels. He provided a quote right away, and once we decided on the right size generator, he was able to get it ordered and schedule his crew to begin the installation. The entire project took about four days, and this was definitely not a simple installation. With two panels and some pretty creative wiring that had to run through my garage and out to the side of my house, there were a lot of moving pieces. Shane and his crew handled everything extremely well. They were on top of every detail--from the wiring, connections and grounding to coordinating everything needed for the propane hookup. There is so much more involved in a generator installation than I ever realized, and it was obvious that the SE Electric crew really knows what they're doing. On top of doing excellent work, the crew was just wonderful to have around. They were such sweet, respectful young men--friendly, professional and genuinely pleasant to work with throughout the entire project. I'm extremely happy with how everything turned out and would absolutely recommend Shane and SE Electric to anyone considering a generator installation or electrical work. Great experience from start to finish!

When we did look for competitive bids, SE came in with great price - and with no surprises at the end! Would strongly recommend!

We recently bought a new home in Santa Cruz and Basset Electric helped us transform it into our…read moredream home! The previous lighting situation was all switches-to-lamps, so there was no overhead light fixtures! So many rooms were completely dark and you had to have lamps taking up valuable socket space. Chad and his team came and listened to what we wanted and gave us suggestions when we asked for them. It took three short days of work to get the whole house set up with new lighting! We got dimmers installed on every light so now we can set different moods in every room in the house! We love it all! We love all of the new lighting and can't imagine living without it now! Thank you soooooo much Basset Electric! Recommend it to everyone we know!

We put our full trust in Basset Electric, and they delivered results that exceeded our expectations. They helped evaluate our new home in Santa Cruz, come up with a plan, and execute completely new lighting across 4 rooms, kitchen, living room, and a few bathrooms -- spanning over three floors, in a matter of 3 or 4 sessions. We are especially LOVING the charming work he did with the recess light installation in our kitchen and living room, as well as the bathroom fans with built in speakers. It's been a dream come true. We no longer feel that we are living in a dark cave. He's simply the best electrician in the Santa Cruz county / Silicon Valley. You can't go wrong! Thank you, Basset Electric!

When they went bankrupt, our landlady was left SOL. We thought we were completely out of luck until my spouse found AOE here. From the get go, Duncan the General Manager was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly patient with all our questions and we never once felt rushed or like we got the brush off. We always got 100% of his attention and he took the time to explain it to us lay folks without making us feeling stupid. Ryan the project manager and estimator is so incredibly friendly. Even though they don't explicitly do solar, he went over everything the city said that we need and made sure we were set up for success. And when my landlady had questions about work done that she couldn't readily identify, he took the time to go over every single line item for her. Zach, the supervisor for the on-site work, was super personable and professional. And his team was so friendly. They left everything clean and packed out all the waste material from upgrading the system to comply with city code. AOE's quote was competitive with a bigger entity that I won't name, but the decision to work with them was a no brainer because they were so much nicer. We didn't have a general contractor to mediate on our behalf so feeling like we could go to them with anything we didn't understand was important. And while we found one private general contractor who was willing to subcontract it out for less money over all, the extra money spent was worth it for the peace of mind knowing the job would be done safely and done right. Somehow, they even managed to get our PG&E disconnect coordinated in 1/4 of the time that their competitor quoted. If you got screwed over by a predatory solar company, these are the people to talk to -- they'll make sure you're taken care of. I would give them 11 out 10 stars if I could.
