Licensed, bonded, and insured.
Our journey started in my native country alongside my grandmother and other dedicated engineers creating 20 stations and numerous tunnel stretches for the subway in the nation's capital. At five years old, I accidentally blew up the fuses during a New Year celebration where some of those engineers gathered, and it was decided that I should become an electrician. That’s the story passed down in my family.
Fast forward many years, I graduated with a degree in energy production and distribution. Interestingly, my thesis focused on energy regeneration in public transportation. This was two decades before the Prius was introduced!
Riskin Electric is now proudly serving the Bay Area, making it greener, safer, and more comfortable.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Work completed: Tesla wall charger installation.
Avi was terrific in every way: responsive, honest, reliable, professional, and an expert-level electrical and craftsmanship work. All at a very reasonable price. I've already recommended him to several friends.

Avi helped us upgrade the panel for our new house to 200 (and get everything else up to code). He was punctual, good communicator and had a better offer than the other four electrical companies that we had come assess our Pacifica house. He was able to complete the work in two days and made sure we got permit from the city and final work completed by PG&E. I would recommend Avi to all my friends and family without reservation. He even switched the direction of our gate to get up to code!

Avie did a great job installing recessed lights! He took his time and worked with us to make sure the light placement made sense in the room. He patched up the original light fixtures and touched up the paint. The room looks brighter and more modern.

We called Avi at 8:30am on a Sunday and he was at our place by 10am. He fixed a breaker in two minutes and did not charge us anything. Avi is honest and quick. We will be calling him for all electrical needs going forward.

We had Avi upgrade our main electrical panel and sub panel, install a level 2 EV charger, and install a Nest doorbell. He was very professional and responsive. We really appreciated that he communicated what he was going to do before he started the work each visit and that he was thorough. Would highly recommend to friends and neighbors!

I had a great experience with Avi and his company. I hired Riskin Electric to install a EV level 2 charger at my home. Installation price quoted was very reasonable. The work and service was great. I highly recommend Avi and Riskin Electric for your residential electrical work.

Avi was so kind and helpful. His is very knowlegable and was patient and determined. He helped us with an urgent fix and I will always keep his number for future needs.

I got my old fluorescent light fixtures removed and replaced with energy saving recessed lights. I groom from home and the lighting in my workspace (aka my garage) was horrible. The house was built in the 50's and had outdated fluorescent fixtures in the garage that needed to be replaced. I was worried it would cost me an arm and a leg but luckily I was able to fine Riskin Electric and it was so affordable. He was quick to respond to my estimate request and was professional, clean, and courteous the whole time!

Great Service. Knowledgeable and experienced Electrician came to my rescue after storms damaged the power lines, house conduit and electrical box. Great communication and quick service. Fair Pricing. Overall amazing! Thank you!!!

I feel so fortunate to have found Riskin Electric! Wow! What a relief to know a professional and honest electrician who does excellent work! Avi was the first of three electricians I called for bids who responded and came out in person to look at the situation (the other two gave bids via email and never actually saw what they would be doing). Avi explains options and is great to work with. I will definitely call Avi whenever I need electrical work done and have already recommended him to friends! Don't mess around just hire him!
