Recommended Customer Reviews

Totally disappointed with this business. The work consisted of replacing a GFI (essentially replacing a plug). The charge was $290!! I was present the entire time and the work took less than an hour. According to the invoice, the time spent by the electrician was 2 hours at $120/hour. Essentially I was charged $120/hour for travel time. Outrageous and no resolution when I spoke with the owner other than reducing the cost by $9.50--the charge for gas. Could not believe they charged $120/hour for travel AND $0.50/mile for gas. Would NOT recommend this business.

If every service provider was as courteous and professional as the fellows at Tahoe City Electric, the world would be a whole lot better off. If you need quality electrical work you need not look further.
