Electric Chen

We were left scrambling when Tesla notified us of our vehicle delivery much sooner than we anticipated. With the vehicle arriving in days, I needed to get a contractor to put in the Tesla wall charger ASAP. After searching the Tesla site and Yelp I ended up talking to 6-7 contractors. I was able to schedule a free estimate with both Robert and another contractor for today. Robert with Electric Chen was my 2nd estimate today so I was able to compare him to the previous contractor.

I explained what I wanted to do with the install, which was what I told the previous contractor, and Robert asked if I would like his opinion. His recommendation totally made sense, and his solution saved me a significant amount of money. Since I had the charger already with me he offered to do the installation on-the-spot. Since his reviews on Yelp were very good and I had a good feeling about him I agreed to have him start the work immediately. 1.5 hours later the job was completed! So happy to have found him. I actually may have him comeback another time for some interior ceiling fans and exterior fixture installations!

He actually had just finished another Tesla Wall Charger installation before me, and now was off to do another one! He apparently said that its most of his work recently!

Rober came on the same day we had our electric work need. He was very polite, humble and courteous. He quickly fixed what we couldn't fix ourselves. Very knowledgeable. I would recommend Electric Chen for electric projects.

Very timely service and professionally executed. I got same day response and the job was also completed in one day. It was little pricey than I expected but still competitive.

Robert responded to my online request within 10 minutes on a Sunday - great.

He showed up on time - great.

Now the not so good. In my original Yelp request, I explained the problem in detail (a wiring fault in an existing house circuit). Then I explained it again on the phone.
After an hour of troubleshooting the electrical problem, he concluded the problem is exactly what I had called him about. He then told me I have to pay for the consultation and an extra hour on top, even though he was only at my house for 1 hour 15 minutes.

I asked Robert if he can find and fix the problem, he said he cannot and that it requires a ""builder"" and he cannot do it. He showed no interest in suggesting any alternatives.

I spent almost $200 for him to tell me he can't fix the problem. :-/

Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. Robert arrived on time and was able to install an NEMA 14-50 through the wall in less than 3 hours. Build quality is great and he also gave us a lot of recommendations on the overall home electrical setup which was very helpful

Robert came over to give me an estimate for installation Tesla wall connector on same day when I posted my project on Yelp. After giving estimate, I checked when he can start it? It was already evening around 6:00 so I just checked if he can do this installation right away, he willingly agreed and did a fantastic job within an 1.5 hour. Installation is neat and sturdy, my car could charged to 100% (from 60%) within 3 hours.

Robert and team went above and beyond to get the job done right. They provided very detailed quotes which give client very clear idea of what's involved. Pricing was fair and quality was one of the best. I am glad I went with Robert after receiving a few quotes.
Robert holds high standard for his work, and tries his best to give the best solution. He does not cut corner and delivers what's promised.
The whole process was quite stress free from start to finish. There were a few old wiring issue and space constraints at the attic, but Robert was able to work out all items with clever solutions and hard work. The job was done in four days which included several recessed lightings, ceiling fan and ventilation fans.
I will definitely hire Robert and team again in the future!

They covered all the bases for us - Robert was responsive and visited our home the same day as our inquiry. He provided a fair quote and completed the work the following day. Honest expert in his field. Thank you Electric Chen for your great work, If I could give more stars I would.

I called Robert for help to troubleshoot a breaker circuit problem. He was very responsive and communicated promptly and courteously.

I would highly recommend Electric Chen. It was a pleasure working with him and I will certainly call upon his services again in the future.

Installed 4 ceiling lights (one larger) and a bathroom fan. Was really responsive and helpful. He was also there next day on schedule and did a great job. It was also helpful he spoke English and Mandarin for myself and my wife

No complaining, just hard work and straightforward.
