Fast, efficient, professional, respectful-so many positive things to say about Modern Electric! They were able to squeeze me in last minute to install a fan in my bedroom. They showed up right on time, got it done in less than a hour and left no trace. I will definitely be using them for bigger jobs in the future!

After reading a recommendation for Modern Electric on Nextdoor, i contacted Jimmy by email and heard back from him within one business day. He was able to schedule me the next day, which was a pleasant surprise. Nacho arrived a little ahead of the scheduled time. He was friendly, professional, and efficient while replacing an old dimmer switch that had caused my track lighting to be inoperative. He also checked another dimmer to make sure it was functioning properly. As a non-DIYer, I appreciate having access to a local electrician who will do small jobs. I highly recommend Modern Electric!

Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience with this electrician. We called and they sent someone out right away to take a look at the job and give us a quote. This job included changing out our electrical panel, and we were fine with the quote and started the process. We reached out every week or 10 days to find out what was going on with the process, as he stated they needed to pull permits and work with PG&E. Nearly 6 weeks later we were trying to get clarity on where we were in the process, and the electrician suddenly became irate and confrontive: ""Was I not clear?"" I stated I didn't understand where we were in the process and what was next, and he then said, ""I'm canceling this job.""

We lost six weeks due to waiting for this guy and now have to start over looking for another electrician. I really don't understand why he felt the need to treat us that way. I'm not willing to beg someone and put up with this kind of behavior to get someone to do work for me.

However, I'm super glad to find out that he was this confrontational and unstable before he actually started working on my house. After all, you really need to be able to trust your electrician.

Had problems with my base board heaters. Had 3 other companies look at it. They all charged me but did not fix it. Modern did. They were on time, courteous, and had fair pricing. I would recommend them to anyone for their service, knowledge, and pricing

Quoted us $200 to install two fans, when the work was done they said it took much longer than expected (though I don't know why, since they were remote controlled and didn't need extra wiring run) and said the price had increased to $350. So they either intentionally underquoted or just ripped us off.

Just had Modern electric do some work on our house including installing 3 new light fixtures. When the old ones were removed, they realized they were installed incorrectly. They immediately recognized the issue, solved the problem, and were able to successfully install the new light fixtures in a timely manner. Courteous and professional, safety was also a priority since they wore masks the entire time. Thank you Modern Electric for the excellent work! Highly recommend.

John and Baroo were friendly and efficient fixing some electrical issues in our house today. They showed up a few minutes before scheduled, did a quick diagnosis and got right to work, re-wiring and fixing the outlets in our living room. I appreciated the thorough explanation and friendly service (a tough find during these chaotic times). I will definitely be a repeat customer with Modern Electric due to the service these two provided. Thanks again!
