Jerry Gubrud launched Gubrud's Electrical Contracting Inc. in April of 1995. The company was born from Jerry's enthusiasm for electrical work, nurtured by his father in his early years and further developed through his apprenticeship and journey to becoming a journeyman electrician. With the qualifications in hand to pursue his C-10 electrical contractor's license, Jerry launched Gubrud Electrical Contracting Inc., concentrating on residential and commercial remodels and service work. Since then, we have continued to grow into a company that primarily serves homeowners with electrical services. Jerry has consistently found joy in working with homeowners, relishing the opportunity to improve the safety of both older and newer homes in the greater Sacramento region by updating electrical systems to align with current needs.
My name is Jerry Gubrud, and I have been involved in electrical work since my teenage years, assisting my father, who was also an electrician. At eighteen, I started my apprenticeship, kicking off my career as an electrician immediately after graduating high school. I have lived in Sacramento my entire life and truly cherish this community. I married my high school sweetheart, who plays a significant role in the company today, and she remains the love of my life after 30 years. We are blessed with three amazing daughters who have all helped out in the company at different points to gain valuable work experience. I aim to grow the company into a comprehensive home service provider and establish it as the trusted name in the community.

Recommended Customer Reviews

We have used Gubrud's twice to install ceiling fans and both times they were awesome. They were communicative, on time, polite and they knew what they were doing. We had Marcus both times, and he was great! Super friendly and knew what he was doing.

This is our second time working with Gubrud's after having a positive experience the first time last year. Today, Bonnie showed up on time after having called to verify she was on her way. She thoroughly explained what needed to be done and efficiently took care of issues we had with outdoor electrical outlets. We were very happy with her work and would highly recommend Gubrud's.

Negative 100 stars. Two of the outlets and light switch in our house were not working all of a sudden. We have an old house so we thought we need to get an electrician. We found this company on Angie's List. We called and we were told they will come to check the problem for free and give us a quote. They came over, didn't look at anything, and told us it would cost $266 for a diagnostic and easy fix. We became suspicious. They looked at our circuit breaker box. We asked them how much to change two outlets with GFCI. They said the whole thing would cost $600+. We became more suspicious and said no. Then they lowered it to $400+. We said no because it felt shady. When they left. After reading things on the Internet, we decided to go to the circuit breaker box and turned off everything and turned it all back on, and then voila, the outlets and light switch that was broken is now working. So these people were gonna charge us hundreds of dollars to turn the switch back off and on?

I needed help with removing canned lights and wiring in preparation for installing skylights. Bonnie was super helpful. She arrived on time, listened to what I needed done, and started problem solving right away. She prepared the kitchen ceiling for the skylight installer to come in. Then she installed 2 canned lights in my family room matching them to an existing light, all for a fair price. I will definitely keep using Gubruds Electrical again.

They quickly resolved our problem at a fair price. Cory was knowledeable and followed up. I would hir again.

I had used Gubruds before so, when I had an issue with two of my can lights in my kitchen, I called them again. Two of my can lights had gone out so I assumed the bulbs had gone bad so I bought two replacements at Home Depot. When I attempted to replace one of the bulbs both of them came on, then moments later they both went out again. I became concerned that there was a wiring (and potential fire risk) problem in my ceiling. I called Gubrubs. The receptionist was very professional and even gave me a $75 discount for being a repeat customer. The electrician arrived within the agreed time. She was courteous, masked and wore booties. I explained the issue and within a few minutes she diagnosed the problem as being broken filaments in the bulbs. She replaced the two bulbs (which I supplied) using my stepladder and presented me with an invoice for $252-95. No mention of the discount. She was on site for less than 30 minutes.
I have no problem paying for services and expertise but I do believe this pricing was excessive.

Very professional and knowledgeable. Bonnie was very easy to work with and did an outstanding job. Thank you.

This company is a ripoff!!...they quoted me over $800 for 7 smoke detectors replacements which I was able to get taking care of for $420 dollars that is over $400 markup when I posted a negative review they responded and made some assertion that what I replaced with were battery operated detectors that this a LIE!! They don't know what I replaced my detectors with since they never contacted me. they were replaced with Smoke/Carbon wired detectors..And they blocked me from countering their response to me...Use at your risk of OVER PAYING!!!!

Marcus came out to replace some outlets in my kitchen after getting new backsplash put in. He was friendly, professional and smart. There were some hick-ups with securing one of the outlets and he solved the issue quickly. I am def going to use Gubruds again. Really glad I found them. I also should add that the staff in the office that took my initial call were incredibly helpful and professional. I really felt like my business mattered to them. All around great experience.

I was very pleased with my first contact with Gubrud's Electrical. The tech had to birddog a ruined receptacle that my handyman could not find! He found it and had everything working again in just a short time. Very courteous and friendly tech. He was teaching a young man, and their interactions were great! Good teacher.
So this time I knew just who to call for some work I wanted. The scheduler was couteous and found me a good time. They followed up with reminder text messages.
My tech was Bonnie. She was friendly, petted my dog (who seemed to like her), asked questions about the jobs i wanted done. First, she taught me a bit about GFI's so i can resolve a certain problem myself if it happens again. Then she went to work installing a new exterior receptacle and removing some old sconces.
She explained the costs clearly, made sure that I received a senior discount, and even threw in a couple screws!
Bonnie was a pleasure to have here. She wore her mask and booties inside, she chatted when appropriate, she did her work quickly, professionally and neatly.
Thank you, Gubrud's.
