Recommended Customer Reviews

I have used Alpha a few times now. They are awesome. Stephanie at the front desk is amazing, knowledgeable, friendly and so easy to work with. Nick has come out to my house each time, and as a single mom, I worry about who comes in my house, but Nick is so professional, no nonsense, easy-going and ridiculously quiet, I never worry about a thing when he's there. Everything gets done perfectly and on time with no mess. Thank you Alpha!!

If you want to get absolutley cheated for your money call Alpha. I had their electrician come look at a job (install 1 light switch and 1 power outlet in a construction project that had open walls) they said it was 3-4 hours labor plus parts. They are $85/hour however the quote they wrote me was for $700. Do the math...5 other local electricians gave me reasonable quotes between $300-400

Had a circuit breaker blowout Friday evening, their electrician Chris came out and got out power back on in less than an hour. He really made sure everything was running properly before leaving. He was Very professional, thank you for coming out right before the holiday weekend.

I needed to have my electrical panel upgraded as the one I had was old and nearing it's end of life. I also wanted to get it upgraded from a 100 amp to a 200 amp panel in case I wanted to add some 200v appliances down the road.
I asked for a quote for both and the price difference was negligible and I went I went with the 200 amp panel.
I have a stucco house which means they needed to cut out the panel and some surrounding stucco to get the old one out. Instead of hiring a stucco company to respray they trimmed the new panel out with nice trim wood and it looks great.
They scheduled an appointment with me and showed up right at the beginning of my two hour time window, they got right to work and my power was off not even a full workday. They worked quick and really clean.
They needed to move some items in my garage to get to the back wall and were very careful with my stuff, and placed everything back when they were finished. You'd never have known they were there.
Both employees were clean and professional, very polite and easy to talk with. They came back a few days later when I was able to schedule a return visit to ask a few questions and button up a few last minute details.
Each time they arrived on time and got right to work.
The receptionist is very friendly and she was very helpful anytime we talked.
The whole team at Alpha cleary cares and wants to do great work and I'm happy to say I feel they did for me and I would recommend them to anyone.
