Our home was built in 1939 and still had the ancient original knob and tube wiring. There were no three-wire grounded outlets, and the wiring was in bad shape. No doubt a house fire waiting to happen. We decided to bite the bullet and have the house totally re-wired with additional outlets installed.

David returned my call right away and we scheduled an appointment to assess the situation and determine the cost to have it all brought up to code. David came by promptly, fully examined our house and went over the options we had. He's a very friendly, non-pushy guy and we never felt we were being talked into expensive work that was unneeded, It was also obvious that he was expert in his trade and carefully explained the needed updates. Total rewiring of an old house is not a cheap proposition, but his estimates sounded fair for the amount of work needed.

From the beginning, David and his crew were thoughtful and accommodating. They always attempted to disrupt our lifestyle as little as possible, and we were almost never without needed power during construction as they worked a section of the time and were able to keep us up and running in the rest of the house. They were extremely easy to work with, and we felt completely at ease with each and every one of them.

The work they did turned out beautifully. They tried to keep any needed openings in the walls to a bare minimum, and required patching and paint touchup turned out to be much less than we expected. They carefully cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day. The entire job was completed in very close to the estimated time, and the final cost was right on the money.

The main thing is that we felt that we were being treated like valued customers throughout the process and had no concerns about the quality of the work. We are thrilled with the improved electrical system and would happily recommend Pleasure Point Electric to anyone reading this review.

Our manufactured home had been having weeks of light flickering and brownout issues. Finally after having another electrician come out on 4 separate occasions, I saw David's reviews and called him. Within 3 minutes of David arriving he had identified the issue (burned out connector at pedestal). He thoughtfully listened to my explanation of what was happening and had a thermal image machine that could pin point the issue location. Turned out it was our Park's responsibility. David didn't even charge me for coming out to diagnose that issue that had been plaguing us for weeks. I will be using this company for all other electrical work - a company with high integrity, good equipment, extremely knowledgeable local staff.

After reading the reviews on Yelp I requested a bid to install a 220v charging station for an EV. David called the next morning and scheduled a meeting to create a bid the next biz day. He arrived at the scheduled time and quickly walked me through the options, created a bid, and emailed it to me before he wrapped up. David is professional and I'm looking forward to working with him on my project. I will update my review as things progress.

David: Thanks for instilling confidence in your capabilities!

We called David yesterday afternoon because we had a fireworks show in our fuse panel . He was able to come check it out within an hour. He was back first thing the next morning to replace the panel. He was friendly, honest, prompt, had great advice, and did a fantastic job! When it came time to pay up, our bill was less than the original bid! If you need honest, and friendly electrical work this is your guy! Thanks Dave!
Oh and, thanks again Carlos.

I spoke to David about making a bid for a panel upgrade, he agreed yet after 2 weeks he hadn't gotten to it. Didn't return calls or emails so he's off my list. I might suggest the same since a 1-minute call or email shouldn't be beyond what professionals do.

I've called on David many times to repair issues at an apartment I own in Santa Cruz. He was willing to work with my tenants and schedule time with them as I was traveling. Very courteous, and makes sure everything was clean before leaving. Highly recommended!

David and his crew from Pleasure Point Electric just rewired our entire house and guest house. Since our house was all original knob and tube wiring I couldn't even get another company to give me a second bid. Two other companies told me they don't bid on these types of jobs because they are too difficult, messy and time consuming. I'm so glad we went with PPE!! David and his crew are extremely honest and trust worthy, we even gave him the key to our house for a month since we don't live there full time. He explained everything in detail, he installed more outlets without asking, he scheduled a great plumber to remove standing water from under our house, scheduled an amazing dry wall guy to put walls back to perfect, he was incredibly clean and conscientious and had great ideas for the ""weird"" lighting things we had going on. He even opened and locked up our house for other sub contractors after his portion of the job was done. He did a walk through at the end of the job to explain everything that was done. I threw some last minute things at him like ceiling fans and fixtures when they were trying to finish and he had them installed in no time and with a smile. David really, really cares about the job he's doing and it shows in his work and his attitude toward his customers. It saddens me that someone gave him a less than perfect review over an outlet, because I honestly can't recommend Pleasure Point Electric enough!!

Wonderful. They answered the phone when we called, came out AND completed the project before the other companies returned our phone calls. Reasonable, efficient & pleasurable.

Sorry to say that I cannot fairly evaluate this company because they never followed up on my request for a quote, after informing me that they would come by to look at the work I needed done. I changed my schedule and returned home to meet them, but they never showed up. So, the next day I called again and spoke with the owner while he was driving to another job. He offered an apology and said he would call me when he arrived at his destination. Any bets here? No call.

I confess, I'm guilty. I just wanted a small job done (an outlet installed in my kitchen)--not a big money maker, obviously, but they should have told me initially that they COULD NOT or DID NOT have the time to help me out. Then I could have looked for someone else.

l've been in business myself and know the importance of communication and follow-through, not to mention the necessity of providing a quality service. Sadly, I'll never know if this company is any good. On the positive side, however, the owner was very friendly on the phone and seemed like a very nice guy. Does that work for you?
