Armando came recommended to me in Boulder Creek and I was super pleased by the results. My bathroom fan quit and he fit me in the next day at the end of a Friday. Communication was quick and clear. He showed on time and gave me options to consider in case I wanted a simple DIY project. In the end he was able to remove it, lube it up, reinstall and get it working again in short order. No charge.

The power to my entire house went off, and I couldn't reset the main breaker.
i Called at 8:10, and they said they'd have someone to my house within an hour.
Jose arrived at 9:05.
He quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem.
He was polite, professional, and very efficient.
He will be my first call the next time I need an electrician.
I highly recommend calling here first!

I'm surprised there are no reviews. I have had to deal with a lot of electricians in my quest to have the right generator installed here in the hills of Soquel. Cost was always a concern but also the right size generator. Jeff was one of the few contractors that listened to me, politely gave his point of view (which i wanted as the professional) and would engage with me in my many questions/texts. He always responded within 24 hours or less which is also highly unusual. He gets that ""good business is good customer service"". His guys are friendly and competent and i feel his costs were very reasonable. Hard to find a company like this. (Came Covid ready, wearing masks etc.)

Jeff and his guys (Armando & Jose) just installed my Generac whole house backup generator, and I couldn't be happier. The city inspector was very pleased with their work as well. Jeff provides a turnkey solution at a fair and reasonable price. They took care of getting the all the permits from the city and completed the work over a three day window. So now, I'm ready the next time PG&E decides to enact a ""Public Safety Power Shutoff"". PG&E's maintenance problems will take a decade or more to fix, and I simply couldn't imagine losing power when I need it most.

My electric team! Found these guys afteanother'sr contractor messed up some installations. I prepared to hunker down with some powerless rooms for a bit -- basically that contractor rewired my expectations for home repair. Dunno how he did it, but Jeff and his team were at my door in minutes! They were in and out so fast I almost told my wiife that I had done it myself!

We needed a breaker panel replaced. Jeff and his guys Jay and Jose did a good job. I expected to have to do some patching up around it, but it was already just right. Thanks Jeff!

About half the lights on my house stopped working and when I started calling electricians most of them were booked a month out. One of the companies I called recommended Jeff. Jeff answered the phone, quoted a reasonable hourly rate and got his guys in to fix the problem in less than a week. His guys were very professional, friendly and efficient. They fixed the issue and I also had them install/replace several light fixtures since I already had them there. Unfortunately the lights went out again a few days later so Jeff sent his guys back out within a day. They diagnosed a separate issue on the same electrical line and fixed it at no charge since they had just been out. This kind of customer service is exactly what I look for in a good company and I have been extremely happy with the results of their work since then. I will definitely call Jeff again if I have any new electrical needs and can happily recommend them.

It took a bit of effort (3 calls/texts) to get my repair job scheduled, but once it was, everything went well. What I thought would be a 1-2 hour job turned out to take 3.5 hours. The crew of 2 electricians were thorough and checked out every aspect of my pool pump system, replacing some parts that were in bad shape. They seem to know their stuff and when they left I had a working pool pump.
