Recommended Customer Reviews

OK, I basically want to adopt Bruce. What a truly good human being he is, on top of being a first-rate electrician and great source of referrals for other work. We moved to SLO in August but needed to have a charging station put in for our car before we arrived. Bruce determined that our panel was at its max. He and his team put in a new panel, cleaned up a bunch of unsightly wires running along the house, even took down the old rusty Dish satellite on the roof for no charge! During the months before we moved in, Bruce installed more needed plugs and kept an eye on the house. He texted my husband a picture of the lawn, which was getting very dry, and suggested bumping up the watering a little. Tommy even came over and plugged in the pheromone dispensers that would calm our cat when he arrived to our new home! Bruce's wife Courtney manages the office efficiently and is warm and cheerful on the phone.These guys are the ABSOLUTE BEST.

I WILL BE A LIFETIME CUSTOMER OF 5 STAR ELECTRIC. I needed an upgraded electrical panel and a garage wired for woodworking hobby. Since I'm new to the area, I was very apprehensive about finding a good electrician. After reading the reviews on Yelp for 5-Star Electric I took a gamble and called. That was absolutely the best choice I could have made. Bruce gave me an estimate based on my specific needs and want list. 5Star arrived on time on the scheduled installation day. They were incredibly neat and efficient. My project went beautifully. Bruce and his crew even added a few little touches that raised the bar on customer service. A few weeks later, I was having major electrical problems as a result of hiring a untrained handyman. I called 5 Star Electric for help. Bruce arrived and was able determine the source of the problem and had all my electrical problems resolved within a little over an hour. Trust me- call 5 Star Electric. You will NOT be sorry

I needed to have a light fixture replaced that is 13 feet high above a stairway in my home. After being unable to pin down another electric company as to price and when they could
come and do the job, I called 5 Star Electric. Within a few minutes I had a price ($120 for the first hour of work) and an appointment for a couple of days later. Tommy arrived right on time and did a terrific job in replacing the old fixture and installing the new one. He was efficient, cooperative and easily got the job done before the hour was up. I would call them for other electrical work in a second.

Bruce and 5 Star Electric have replaced the electric panel in my home, I couldn't be happier! All the 5 Star team is polite, forthright, and timely in their tasks. I cannot imagine finding a better company to work with!

At risk of sounding like a repeat from previous customers, I similarly had a great experience using 5-Star (like the name would infer) Electric. They completed a small project (bathroom fan installation) on time and under budget. Bruce & Tommy were very professional - both in timeliness and treating my property like it was their own.
Great attention to detail and cleanup..
Thanks Tommy!

First rate experience. Bruce was on time, diagnosed the problems quickly and found an economical solution. Would recommend to anyone.

5 star fits the name with their service and quality of their work. Bruce and his team are knowledgable, reasonable and friendly. I've used them for a number of jobs including basic repairs to a full solar system and haven't been disappointed yet.

Bruce and his brother are awesome. I could sit around and hang out with Bruce all day that's how cool of a guy he is. And he's built a pretty legit operation. His wife schedules Bruce out and was great to work with and followed up closely. Bruce knew his stuff on my kitchen rewiring and made sure everything was done right. I was impressed with the quality of work and with Bruce's problem solving skills to be able to make our kitchen re-wiring even better. He made improvements and re-wired the kitchen so that the appliances weren't all in the same circuit and were on superstar circuits that the lights so the lights don't dim every time you start the microwave, for example. I would highly recommend Bruce and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

We had a situation where a small subset of the outlets and switches stopped working. The main circuit breakers and the GFCI outlets were all fine. I couldn't figure it out on my own so I called 5 Star Electric. As luck would have it, they had an opening on that very afternoon so I took it.
Bruce showed up on time and systematically went through and tested all the possible break point scenarios. He traced the problem to the transformer in our ceiling lamp in the dining room, a place I never would have guessed since we have high, vaulted ceilings.
5 Star Electric is the epitome of professionalism and expertise. I highly and wholeheartedly recommend them.

I would recommend Bruce and 5 Star Electric without hesitation. He is prompt, courteous, honest, and stands behind his work. You cannot ask more from a company than that. Absolutely top notch!
