Oz Electric

Yes, that is right. Five stars!

We got some recessed lighting installed. OZ gave a good estimate and stood by it. He finished the job with surprising efficiency. Everything seemed to work at the first time.

Highly recommended

We use Oz for our business, home and commercial property . Always prepared and on-time with very reasonable rates . He replaced all of our recessed lighting in our home with LED lights and completely rewired our retail store in San Bruno. Very happy with his service and quality work

I bought a condo in San Mateo and had an electrical issue with three of my outlets on the same circuit (none of them were showing a ground-connection) while others on that same circuit were.

I found Oz on Yelp and called and he said he was finishing another job in San Carlos and would be over in about an hour. He was here exactly one hour later and immediately went to work with his assistant.

In the end I had a tricky issue to solve that Oz came up with a clever and simple solution for (for those technical, he connected ground wire from a dimmer switch on the same circuit that was good to one of the bad outlets and that restored the ground on all three).

Would definitely recommend Oz and will use him for future needs. I would also add that both him and his assistant (unfortunately I forgot his name) are very polite and professional.

I never write reviews but today I absolutely wanted to write a review for Oz. We just bought a house with barely any lights in the house. Only light in the house were a boxed kitchen light and 40 yr old chandeliers. Oz worked on our house giving me honest advice instead of trying to sell more to me. He did a great job with updating the entire house with recess lighting, changing out all switches/sockets and hanging new chandeliers.

Oz will be our go to person for all our future electrical needs as well.

Found Oz here on Yelp.
He was quick to answer the phone, quick to set an appointment, arrived on time and was able to estimate the job on the spot, then upon request gave it to us in writing. Oz had good advice as to timing (working to avoid the rain), explained the process and exactly what he would do. Oz and his assistant then did exactly what they said they would do.
A rebuild from the PG&E drop to a new meter box, new main breaker, new ground, new circuit to the sub-panel. We passed inspection and I was happy to pay Oz, two thirds of the quote everyone else. This was all outside and crawlspace work but every thing Oz touched still showed pride in the fit and finish. We couldn't be happier.

Oz is a great guy. Our sump pump stopped working and he came out within an hour as I'm still waiting for others to even call me back! Did what he could and was a great help.

I need to install a new recessed light in the bathroom, replace dining light with ceiling fan and the 2 vanity lights at my new condo. Most electricians said the work is about 4 hours but the quotation range from $350 to $1650! I went with Oz because his price is reasonable and his good reviews on YELP, I'm very happy that I did. He and his assistant showed up punctually, covered everything before drilling holes in the bathroom. Job was finished beautifully, they even screwed back the holes cut for the recessed light. I'll definitely give him a call in the future when I need electric work again!

We've used Oz twice now and we won't use anyone else! First Oz helped to install a new ceiling fan, new overhead light and rearrange some wiring/outlets. In his second visit he came to install two more new overhead lights. Both times he was on time, friendly and efficient and he does all the little extras like covers your furniture, etc. with a tarp to clean the mess and brings in a shop vac to ensure everything is as he left it. He has even helped dispose of packaging from the lights we purchased in our recycle bins so the room was completely clean. You'd think this is obvious but we've had other people come to do work who have left huge messes afterward so this is much appreciated!

For the ceiling fan installation, this was in a part of our house that was an addition and didn't have an attic so he had to make another small hole to install new overhead wiring, but he patched everything up afterward so cleanly you wouldn't even know there had been an opening. On our second visit, after installing a light our older electrical fire alarm was beeping so he helped troubleshoot it and installed a new one for us! He has also helped identify outlets that weren't to code which we never would have known about and fixed them. He has most materials on hand but for our first job, since we had several items he would address, he came and surveyed everything so he could purchase the right materials for us in advance and was ready to go.

Oz is accurate on timing/estimates for his work and is very reasonably priced (I had one competitor come back 1 week after an estimate appt. and was 3x as much as Oz whereas Oz was able to tell me his pricing before he left our appt.), is extremely fast to respond and can come quickly for appts., does meticulous work, and he and his assistant Carlos are always friendly and polite. I would highly recommend Oz for any electrical work!

Oz belongs to another century. He cares in what he does, he cares that he finishes the work in the best possible way. He does the work clearly as if he was part of the family, helping to do the job in the best possible way.

What else can I say? Some parts were missing. Oz went to Hope Depot in the middle of the work, he called from there to offer to bring lights which I forgot. Came back quickly, installed everything in such a clean, fast and professional way.

That's it, we found our family electrician!

I had moved back into my home after a year abroad and the tenant occupying my home had made some improvements only to find that when I did move back, they weren't done properly. There were two 3-way switches for the exterior and the living room, none worked except on one switch. I emailed Oz when I found his posting on Craiglist and he called me back within an hour, on Sunday morning. I was so impressed that he made the call on a Sunday and came equipped with his work van and all the necessary tools to fix the work. My home was built in1911 and the electrical is a good 80 years old. The box for the switch that needed to be replaced was metal and couldn't house the switches safely, he removed and installed a new, plastic, blue box. Beyond that, he came with all the parts and fixed the receptacles within a couple hours. I had to run to Home Depot during the time while he was getting things ready to get a colored double stack three way to match the other light switches. All my switches are black and Oz suggested I get a double stacked 3-way and buy a black non-3-way switch and swap the face plates since black isn't common in the Leviton/Lutron electrical section. Everything matchs in my living room and works perfectly. His price is very reasonable, $70/hour and the professionalism/work completed is worth it.
