Recommended Customer Reviews

Robert is great to work with! He is knowledgeable, pragmatic, punctual, and fairly priced. I have already had the privilege of recommending him to friends.

On time, clean, the price was fair to their professionalism. I am willing to pay more to know that my investment won't go up in smoke. If you are in need of an eletrician, save some time and give them a call.

Robert did an amazing job installing my home audio and video. He set up surround sound in my huge living room, safely mounted my TV on the wall and sourced the best Audio for me to use. He went so far as to connect everything seamlessly, and even gave me a full lesson on how to run it all! He was very communicative, thoughtful, considerate and mindful when working with me on how I wanted to approach this project. He left the job done with out a mess and working perfectly. I would highly recommend Bulterman Electric over all others in the Bay Area!

Robert did excellent work in a cheerful and timely manner for a remodel of my house in El Cerrito. The structure was, to be honest, a bit of a wreck containing much substandard older wiring. The work was as follows:
- explained what was needed for code-compliant changes, and options for new fixtures
- obtained a city permit for PGE service change
- upgraded wiring which included adding new circuits including a 20-amp (I think) kitchen and dedicated bedroom/hall smoke alarms
- installed new fixtures including recess ceiling can LEDs which greatly brightened the place
- quickly answered all my inquiries and oversaw inspection
I highly recommend him for your electrical services.
