Electric Empire

I highly recommend Trace Robert's at Empire Electric. He recently wired my kitchen for an induction stove. The job went smoothly. But what I really want to highlight happened two days later when the appliance installers arrived with the new stove. They couldn't get it to work because the fuse kept tripping. So I called Trace and he patiently walked us through the problem in short order which had to do with an installer error. Bottom line, my wife and I now have a working stove. If Yelp allowed it I'd give Trace six stars.

I purchased an electric dryer and found out my 240 volt outlet wasn't working, in a panic with heaps of laundry to do I searched for a local electrician and found Electric Empire. Trace first tried to troubleshoot with me to hopefully avoid a service call, unfortunately the circuit breaker needed a little work. It was Friday late afternoon when I called, and Trace came out the next day which was a Saturday to fix my dryer outlet to save me from my dirty laundry. Highly recommend.

My Yelp search ultimately led me to Tracy (Trace) Roberts at Electric Empire, whom I hired for a project that I had long imagined doing with the help of a qualified professional. Over a period of three days, Trace and his assistant proceeded to make child's play of an upgrade that most electricians might have declined given the number of special features I was seeking (whole house surge suppression, dedicated lines, noise suppression, ground conditioners and more).

While I had reached out to other good people and received quotes from several companies, only Trace took the time to research the specialty items on my list and to follow up with many good suggestions. When all was complete, my project sailed through inspection with the City of Benicia and the low noise results we achieved in my home confirmed my decision to go with the highly competitive quote I received from Electric Empire. All in all, my experience with Trace was one of professionalism and excellence (from the drywall openings and panel workmanship to the communication and invoicing).

During this time, I got to know Trace as an accomplished electrician and good guy. If he says your special project can be done, you can have faith that it will happen, and exactly as he explains. Therefore, Electric Empire and Trace the man, receive my highest recommendation for integrity and workmanship! By the way, the panel upgrade itself was completed in just one day and power was restored with not a hiccup or glitch to follow. Needless to say, I'm a happy customer and will trust Electric Empire for future electrical needs in my home.

Trace from Electric Empire was able to see me the same day I called and was able to fix the issue quite quickly. Hope I don't have any more issues, but I'm hanging on to his number in case I ever do. Informative, friendly, and professional.

Trace from Electric Empire was very professional and informative in my options for the projects I had him do. From getting a quote to finishing the project, he was able to answer any of my questions and provide me information to help with my decisions.
He was able to install a wired ring camera, trouble shoot my doorbell chime issues, and move a light switch to the other side of a wall. His work is clean and his years of experience definitely showed with the how efficient he worked through the multiple task. His price was affordable and I would definitely recommend Electric Empire to anybody else with projects that are big or small.

Trace is great. Really knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Doesn't try to run up the cost or add work that doesn't need to be done. Really friendly and explains everything so you have a good understanding of what was wrong and what the fix is. Will definitely be using him for all our future needs.

Trace is a very personable guy that does excellent work for competitive prices. I had several items to update at my house including installing several new outlets, updating the fuse box, repairing an overhead fan and pairing it to a remote, installing new bathroom lights, and exterior lighting. He was also kind enough to replace an additional exterior light fixture at no additional cost. What impressed me most was his thoroughness during the initial appointment, he really took the time to investigate the issues, and he looked for ways to avoid unnecessary costs. I highly recommend him.

I had a need for a new 240v circuit and outlet installation in my garage. Trace reached out provided me with a fair estimate after our first meet and quickly inspecting the work required. He also gave me advice and options on a potential bathroom outlet project that I'm looking into. Very friendly, professional and honest. Thank you Trace!

Trace did great work and at a reasonable price. We were adding built in cabinets to our living room which would have covered up some existing outlets. I wanted the existing outlets to be usable within the cabinets and also add in new outlets around some corners. Trace was able to talk through the different options for achieving this and the costs involved. We agreed on a plan and he completed the work in the same afternoon. Overall a great experience

Called Electric Empire and provided email quote to install electrical outlet. Showed up on time and cleaned up wood chips from outlet installation drilling inside house. Looks like I finally found an awesome electrician for any future needs at my home.
