Peter is all world. He is honest, thorough and efficient. He took care of some electrical issues with our 1895 Victorian and explained the entire process.

Pete is a great electrician. He is personable, easy to work with, ethical and does really great electrical work. We hired him to do some basic work at our new place, e.g. moving fixtures, installing new fixtures, moving some electrical, replacing a box fan, etc. Pete did a great job and was quick and efficient. More than his work, he is a pleasure to work with. He is personable and can really consult with you about possible changes and approaches to your project. He was able to easily adapt when one of our ""smaller"" projects turned into a medium/large project in terms of complexity.

I plan on using Pete in the future for our electrical work. You can't go wrong hiring him for your next project.

FANTASTIC!!!
I was in need of an electrician ASAP. Did a search on yelp, read reviews for several electricians and after reading reading reviews about Pete's professionalism and costumer satisfaction...I was convinced he was the person I needed to reach out..and he was!
Pete answered his phone, with a pleasant and professional disposition. I explained my needs to have a 110 outlet installed next to the existing 220 so I could have a new washer and drier for my very first tenant, who is scheduled to moving in on Dec 1st.
My 2 in 1 stacked unit broke down on my last day at my condo and opted to replace it with a stackable/independent units, however needed this other outlet. I did not want to buy the units until I was sure to have a working 110 outlet for the new duet to be properly installed.
Pete stated he was scheduled to go out of town the following day, but managed to squeeze me in before his departure,
He arrived much earlier than scheduled, he assessed the work required; he stated he could not complete it that afternoon as he had hoped to, however, he could send an associate to assist on his behalf in order to accommodate my urgent needs.
Pete rendered the solution, a quote for the job and informed me whom would be calling the following day.
I received a call the same evening from Christian to further schedule the job and the work was completed on time, Christian did an amazing job!
Pete, thank you so much for accommodating my needs on the fly, your professionalism, and your passion for what your do to serve a community!
Christian thank you for your prompt assistance and amazing work.
I have added you both to my contacts and will certainly reach out to you in the future and refer my friends/relations to you guys!

Pete is an excellent electrician. He did a very complicated electrical project for me - getting electricity to a hot tub in my backyard in Berkeley. It required over a hundred feet of electrical wire and skilled craftsmanship to install it neatly alongside the house, underground, and back above ground to the hot tub. Pete took great care in all of his work and the finished product looks beautiful and works perfectly. I wanted to be involved in the project and Pete thoroughly explained everything that he was doing and why. I learned a lot about electricity that will be useful for me as a homeowner. He was also super friendly and personable and a lot of fun to have around. He's technically excellent, take pride in his work, and he's got a great attitude.

Pete is reliable and quick to get back to you. I called him the other day and he got back to me immediately and was able to fit the job into his schedule and get it the job done in the timeframe he quoted. He is fantastic and trustworthy. I would recommend him to anyone.

Pete impressed me immediately but I still made calls to other places just to be sure.

After talking to Pete for a few minutes on the phone, my gut said to go with this guy -- he spouted integrity, passion, and genuine interest in what I was trying to achieve in terms of the lighting in my front yard; he got me more excited than I already was. He introduced new possibilities too. It was a fun call.

But he was the first call I made and I thought I needed to do some due diligence to compare prices and service options, etc. I called 2 other people with great Yelp reviews. One was higher priced and one was similarly priced. And both service providers were not nearly as personal, knowledgeable, or fun on the call.

And his craftsmanship is beautiful. I now have a security light on the side of my house that looks like it's been there the whole time. Great work. Great guy!

Pete is by far the best electrician I have worked with in twenty years in the Bay Area. He is super courteous and professional; seems like no job is too big or small. He is always on time, does excellent work, and is extremely responsible. His rates are very fair, and he packs a lot of work into an hour! He has a total ""can do"" approach that put me at ease, and makes working with him a pleasure. I feel totally fine having him work in my home when I am not here. The fact that he is smart and interested in lots of things is an added bonus, but mostly, he is just the most effective, efficient and professional electrician I have encountered. I wouldn't hire anyone else!

Pete is absolutely the best! He is always on time, keeps you totally updated about everything while he's doing work for you, and is super quick to respond to any questions you have even after he's done with the work. He thoroughly explained everything that needed to be done in advance so we were fully aware of what we should expect. AND he came in under budget so we paid even LESS than we were expecting to :D

His work is absolutely top notch, hire this man!

I was referred to Pete by a friend and consider myself lucky to have found him. I hacked away at my drywall to move an outlet and spent hours patching. For the next outlets and switches, I decided I needed a pro. Pete had all the right tools and skills to do a neat job and clean up. There was no patching and everything looks like it was there since construction. Best of all, he knows the codes so I feel safe. Pete is really responsive, he text, emails, or calls back, as well as gives status updates.

Pete is the consummate professional.

I've used his services in two very different contexts. The first time was a near emergency, caused in part by another electrician who either didn't know, or didn't want me to know that he was in over his head. I got a reference from a trusted source who said Pete was experienced, honest, and discreet. He saved my a$$!

Needless to say, when it came time to design a new project from the ground up, I called Pete first. Working through the design process with Pete was fantastic. He was extremely thorough, and this forced me to think through every last detail of the project, which is exactly how it should be.

I won't work with anyone else. Having said that, my only fear with writing this review is that he will be too busy to work on my next project!
