Recommended Customer Reviews

Positive Electric has done an excellent job for me on both small commercial and residential jobs. I originally hired them to do some retrofit work at my previous employer. They were always on time, professional, easy to communicate with, and very accommodating. I also believe they are reasonably priced.
Recently, I had an emergency situation at my home and they reacted very quickly and rearranged their schedule to accommodate an urgent issue. The administrative staff and everyone I've dealt with in the field have been exceptional.

The dining room light switch was more than warm when it was on, and got worried we didn't know any electrician... Found Positive Electric team through yelp and they were so great! Sharon is prompt and helpful as she asked me few questions to trying to pin point what might be the cause.. And in few days she scheduled for someone to stop by! Thank you so much :)

Had electric vehicle charger upgrade (NEMA 14-50) for Tesla installed by Positive Electric.
They were courteous and knowledgeable on the telephone.
Diego came to do the estimate promptly as scheduled. Estimate was quite reasonable, and thus had the install same day. Diego was very patient, pleasant and knowledgeable, explained everything I wanted to know in detail before doing the work and while doing it. He was very efficient and did quality work. He gave clear impression that he was there to serve the customer and perform good work. He Further made sure that I Knew about PG&E's incentive program for electric vehicles.
I don't usually write reviews except for exceptional services. I was very pleased with the work and highly recommend them to anyone wanting electrical services.

Positive Electric saved the day for our local church. We had a large, commercial installation of custom lighting for our main Sanctuary. Of three bidders, they were the lowest and provided additional services when our lighting designer failed us. Diego was very thorough with his estimate, added the extra LED track lights, dimmers, and parts we needed, and fixed problems with the $12k in custom fixtures we received. Took three days, two electricians, but it was done correctly and they stuck to the estimated price. The Sanctuary had steep, 25 ft ceilings with pews bolted to the concrete. Working from both a ladder and rolling scaffolding, they got the job done.
Overall, very professional, thorough, and technically competent to do the job right at the lowest price. Always on time and easy to work with. Highly recommend them.

Needed to have two heaters replaced. Never needed an electrician, or even knew one. Yelped! Them, and took a chance. VERY reasonable rates(big plus)Great customer service, on time, and best of all, knew what he was doing... Kyle Rocks. Definitely will use them again, and will recommend them.

Circuit breaker wouldn't reset. Well treated on the phone call. Diego the electrician arrived when scheduled. He did good troubleshooting of where the short was--turns out it was the sump pump--and was personable and considerate.

I had a great experience with them installing approx 40 recessed cans for our remodel. I primarily dealt with Nick, who was nice and efficient. The company is a class act.

Had them come out a few months ago to install a bathroom light/fan fixture. If I remember correctly, I called the night before and they were out the next day for an estimate. We also decided last minute (during the estimate) to have a new thermostat installed at a new location than the existing one and the overall quote was reasonable. Then they made another trip out to install both things. It turned out to be a difficult install for the light/fan because the attic was inaccessible, so it took longer than expected. But they were very professional with the install, cleaned up their workspace, and honored the quote despite the additional effort required. There's a reason they are Diamond Certified.
Only thing they could improve on would be to have someone who fields the initial call to have a better attitude. I did call around 8-9PM, but their service hours are listed as 24/7 and wasn't that late in the night. I just felt the lady who I spoke with was a little annoyed.

These are the greatest electricians in the area! They have been to our house numerous times for various issues over the past year and are always knowledgeable, friendly and reasonably priced. Everything they have worked on has stayed in perfect working order after the repair. The last time they visited, unexpectedly when I received the bill, the invoice said they decided not to charge me as a courtesy even though they had to replace my GFI outlet.

Simply put these are the best electricians I have used in over 30 years of home ownership. The office promptly called me back after I left a message, within a day or two they had someone come out to give me an estimate on having some outlets run to the front of the house as well as some other work around the house. Each day the owner Nick called to let me know when the folks would be out to do the work. Tod and Jeff showed up on time, well mannered, did the work quickly and professionally and when they left each day I couldn't tell that they were even there. The bill came right on the quote and even when I had a misunderstanding on what was covered Nick graciously worked with me to solve the dispute. Outstanding service, excellent quality; I can't recommend them highly enough
