Fighting Amish Electric

Wow, talk about service! Fighting Amish Electric is my new favorite business. Daan is a master of his craft. He responded quickly to my request and was helpful and extremely informative. I loved all of the detailed explanations. Thank you, Daan! You are an embodiment of technical knowledge combined with quality service. Just incredible!

Daan was very thorough in his explanations and did not recommend any unnecessary work. I ended up holding off on any work but will definitely use them in the future.

Since moving into a 90 year old home with a lot of repair needs I've gained a lot of experience with repair services. It is rare to get timely, friendly service at a very reasonable price. Fighting Amish did a service upgrade and some other work quickly and efficiently. Some of the job involved getting into tight spaces and they could have easily told me I had to remove the ceiling insulation and do an expensive rewire as they warned me that was a possibility. Instead they got everything done quickly. If only everyone was easy to work with and did a pro job... These guys are the best!

It didn't make sense for Amish Electric to take on my particular project since it involved something that they don't really specialize in but Daan gave out good advice for my project and referred me to someone who should do a great job so I just wanted to recognize the helpfulness of Amish Electric with this review. And Diana was also very responsive to my initial inquiry.

The power was intermittently going out at my parents' house so I started calling electricians. Some people never got back to me. The ones who did came out, took a look, and gave an estimate. Helpful. Daan stopped by the house in the evening after normal work hours, told me exactly what was wrong (though it mostly went over my head), and INSTALLED A TEMPORARY BRIDGE, making the power safer and stable again. We were so impressed that we accepted their bid and waited for an opening in their busy schedule, even though we could have saved a fair chunk of money with someone else.

Fighting Amish was very professional, precise, and true to their word. I felt very comfortable with their work and didn't feel like I was being taken for all that I'm worth (as is the case with some contractors). As other people have stated, these guys are incredibly busy, so getting on their roster could take weeks, but they're HIGHLY recommended for good reason.

Disclaimer: This work was done in early 2013. My parents are having electrical problems again (it's an old house), which prompted me to finally write a review. For what it's worth, Daan got back to me within 30 minutes and is stopping by same day. I would definitely work with them again.

We have been customers of FIghting Amish Electric for a few years now. They are always there when they say they will be, fix the problem the first time and involve me in the decision making about how they think the best and most cost effective way to fix the problem. I recommend them to all of my friends. I never hesitate to call whenever I have an electrical problem that needs work at the house. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

This is a little embarrassing. I needed an electrician and naturally came to yelp to look. Had I looked at my own reviews, I would have seen that I wrote a great review for Berkeley Electric, but I didn't look there and I hadn't put them in my phone book. So I'm looking through yelp reviews and I see that Fighting Amish get amazingly awesome reviews and I call for an appointment. They're so busy, it takes a little while to get on their schedule, but I figure they're worth it. I mean -- look at all of these 5 star reviews. Between making the appointment and the appointment itself, I'm on yelp looking for something else and I see where I had used Berkeley Electric and really liked them and wrote them a great review. What is even more embarrassing is that it wasn't that long ago, and I'm not so old as to be senile, but...

Fighting Amish were wonderful. Knowledgeable. Hard working. Willing and able to crawl into dark dirty spaces looking for wire problems. Very reasonably priced and efficient. I have no option but to give them this review, and put it up along with the other 5 star rating for Berkeley Electric and announce to the world that I am, in all likelihood, older and more forgetful than I think I am.

Second time I've used these guys. Still excellent work. They installed 3 new light fixtures and slipped me into their schedule very quickly. Fast, efficient, and on budget. Careful with your stuff.

Wonderful to work with. Very responsive, and while it took a bit of time to get on their calendar, they were communicative and transparent throughout the process about their availability, pricing, work plan, etc. Really knowledgeable and patient in explaining what our options were for each part of our project. We are first-time home owners and feel very happy to have found Inder and Daan (thanks yelp!) We wouldn't hesitate to call on them again for any electrical needs we may have in the future.

I am in need of an electrical upgrade in my home and decided based on yelp reviews to send a message to the Fighting Amish. I was so sad to find out they do not service the San Leandro Area :( I am posting the review for the simple fact that in my quest to find an electrician at least I received a response from the Fighting Amish. Thanks for taking the time to respond it was very thoughtful and professional of you. As for me... the search continues!
