Left again, rescheduled to Monday (!). And, lo and behold, no-show again on Monday. After 45 mins, I called their office and they simply said something got in the way and they can't help it. Honestly shockingly bad. Can't rate their actual service as I've never received it, just empty promises.

He told me he could not get to my house until approximately 9:00 pm. He was very professional and even tried to help me for free, when he asked me to text him a picture of the fill valve. Unfortunately, his suggestion didn't work, so I needed him to come in person. When he arrived, he impressed me when he removed his shoes without being asked. I wasn't going to ask him to remove his shoes, as there was a water leak and the floor was just recently mopped. He replaced the fill valve effortlessly. I looked at my son, as we were struggling with removing the old fill valve. Leave it to a professional. He cleaned up the job area and I was charged a reasonable price.

Kevin was the only vendor who came out in person and gave me an honest and fair quote for what it would take to get it done. What I appreciated the most before we got started with the project is that he didn't charge me when he needed to come back a couple of times to finalize the work and materials needed, as well as ensure that he had the access he needed When he started the work, it was clear he would easily be the most experienced electrician I've ever worked with. He showed up exactly when he said he would and got the work done in exactly the amount of time he projected it would take. Even more importantly, the project passed inspection without any issues. I'd work with him again in a heartbeat and have recommend him to friends who are looking for a competent and honest electrician in the city.

The new HVAC system runs quietly, keeps the whole house comfortable. and I've already noticed a drop in my energy biils. If you're looking for reliable HVAC repair or installation, this is the company to call. Honest, friendly, and dependable - I wouldn't go anywhere else.

If you are looking for a contractor, you can find plenty. But if you are looking for a partner to…read moretransform your home into a safe, efficient, and future-proof sanctuary, there is only one name: Fuse Service HVAC & Electrical SF. Our journey with Fuse didn't start with a grand vision; it started with one project. But excellence has a way of building trust, and that trust led us to a total home evolution. Reliability That Weathers the Storm (and the Heat) Two years ago, Fuse installed our HVAC system. Today, as we navigate a punishing heat wave, that system isn't just "running"--it is performing with surgical precision. For us, this isn't just about comfort; it's about care. We have a senior in our home, and the ability of the Fuse-installed system to regulate temperature flawlessly provides a level of peace of mind that you cannot put a price tag on. When the world outside is scorching, our home remains a cool, consistent haven. The Great Transition of 2025 In 2025, we decided to step into the future. We tapped Fuse to retire our decades-old gas water heater in favor of a high-efficiency electric heat pump. To power our new lifestyle, we also needed to upgrade our electrical backbone from a 100A to a 200A panel. This is where Fuse truly separates themselves from the pack. Their teams didn't just work; they worked tirelessly. They orchestrated the entire symphony of the upgrade, including the complex coordination with PG&E. (A shoutout to PG&E as well for their seamless cooperation!) Fuse handled the bureaucracy and the heavy lifting, leaving us with nothing to do but watch our home modernize before our eyes. A Legacy of Safety and Sustainability Today, my home stands as a testament to what is possible. We are now fully electric. No more gas usage. No more carbon footprint from fossil fuels. No more Carbon Monoxide (CO) concerns--ever. There is a profound sense of liberation that comes with cutting the gas line. We have eliminated a silent invisible risk, replaced it with clean technology, and ensured our home is ready for the next fifty years. The Verdict If you want a company that shows up, you can call anyone. But if you want a team that works with integrity, masters the latest technology, and treats your family's safety as their own, you call Fuse. They don't just fix houses; they empower homeowners. Don't wait for your old systems to fail. Step into the future. Call Fuse. You won't just be changing your appliances; you'll be changing your life.

He set expectations well and said he couldn't be 100% certain, but he would start with the least invasive solution, order the part, and we could schedule the actual repair when the part arrived. He also let me know what I needed to do to prep for the future repair, which was helpful. I was contacted to schedule repair when the part arrived a few weeks later. Jake arrived promptly at the scheduled window, shut off my water supply for me, replaced the part, and set expectations that I could possibly see the issue again because without going more invasive, it's not entirely possible to determine the root cause, which made sense for a plumbing issue. He was clean, finished in less than an hour, and also sent pictures of the WIP while he was repairing. I appreciated the promptness, professionalism, and transparency.

One day, after many years, the lighting would dim suddenly without warning for no apparent reason. We thought it was a fluke, but it wasn't, as the same symptom would appear again and again. For safety, I shut down power to that circuit and filed a service request direct on Electro-Integrity's website. The following day, they called to schedule an appointment, and fast forward 48 hours, the serviceman came out to resolve the problem quickly and in resounding fashion. No problem ever since. They are very attentive and know what they are doing. No guesswork. I heartily recommend Electro-Integrity for electrical work. Not the cheapest nor the most pricey, but worth every penny.

Alex has become my go‑to electrician. He's done multiple jobs for me over time, including installing a new main panel, upgrading to a SPAN sub‑panel, installing recessed lighting, and handling various outlet installations. He always shows up on time and treats my home with care. He's a kind, straightforward guy, and his pricing is fair. He even helped me navigate challenges with PG&E and the county permitting process, which made the whole experience so much easier. I'll continue calling Alex for any electrical work I need.

Workwise, Paul was in constant contact, and provided clear cost estimates, and excepted payment only when milestones were definitively met. Small details like sending us small diagram renderings of a new design idea, and listening to our thoughts in a respectful and curious manner, and checking in with us frequently to make sure we were all in the same page, really made a difference in the quality of the final result.
