Tim Wright and his crew are fantastic and have performed excellent work for us in the past month. We recently purchased a home and had the furnace and duct work, hot water heater, lead water pipes all replaced, and with energy saving items wherever possible such as with a new tank less water heater and duct insulation. Tim also did seismic bracing work for us as he noted some weak spots in the basement area. Tim and his crew worked continuously on our project for two straight weeks completing everything in a very timely and efficient manner including updates to our electrical wiring and panel. On top of that we recently had a sewer leak, and Tim came out on a weekend to inspect and to determine where it came from. He fixed it right away and did a great job. His work is outstanding as well as his team. He's honest and very reasonable, and leaves the work site in a clean condition. We are very happy with his work, will use him for our future projects, and highly recommend Tim Wright.

I first met Tim, a local guy, when another company told me all my retrofit had to pulled out and replaced to the tune of 10 K. Tim came himself, crawled into the space and looked. He explained why it was all perfect for my home. So, when I had problems with another company, I called Tim to redo my electrical panel a d subpanel. His crew were awesome and worked hard, staying past "" work hours"" to get the work done.
This is the only company I trust!

If there were 6 stars Tim deserves them!
Tim worked through the most ridiculous PG&E nightmare with humor and grace that couldn't be more appreciated. His work, and that of his team, is thorough and precise. Always professional, honest, knowledgeable, prompt, and just great people. Tim was nothing short of fantastic in coming in and facilitating the completion of a difficult PG&E situation, an existing contractor, and keeping me sane through it all. A genuinely nice person, who is diligent & professional - Tim has us as clients for life!

Tim has helped my get my new house in order - he started work the day after we moved in and has been very responsive, clean and thorough throughout. I have no hesitation recommending him for electrical and general contracting work.

Tim and his team did an amazing job upgrading and improving our Trestle Glen home. We needed comprehensive improvements to our electrical, plumbing, heating, foundation as well as a new front staircase and they did it all. They were clean, eager to explain and work with us on options and were very quick to deliver quality work. We highly recommend Tim and he will be the first person to call whenever we have another project.

I have had Tim and his team work on four of my properties. They are always fast, efficient and comprehensive. In addition to the problems at hand, they cleaned up other unsafe wiring that they discovered, and left me with a feeling that everything has been attended to. He was always quick to quote me for the work, and his final bill did not deviate from that. Since he is also a general contractor, he can solve more complex problems as well. I strongly recommend Tim.

Tim is the guy to call if you had a emergency. If you want someone who knows his job well and won't cost you a fortune. We found Tim from Berkeley parents network.

PG&E came shut down the power because new tenants forgot to switch into their names. And PG& E made us pull a special permit from the city which only electrician can get. Tim went in the craw space, attic and inside to check all the wiring ( it took him a long time to check everything about 1 day.)

We are very happy with his work. His charge is very reasonable. He is highly recommended at Berkeley Parents Network. Just say you saw it from yelp and Berkeley Parents Network.

We've been delighted with the electrical and general contracting work Tim Wright performed for our home in Berkeley in the spring of 2010. He came to the job prepared to listen, and he provided advice on how to save money both with his work and with other contractors (painters, landscapers, sewer technicians and roofers) that had separate work to do on the property. Tim remained fair and listened well to our concerns as the work proceeded.

Tim revised unsafe areas in our wiring and breakers, encapsulated old ductwork, repaired broken concrete and woodwork, and extended our backyard deck with repair of rotted areas of the decking. When given the opportunity to take lucrative steps with our work, he found cheaper alternatives that I feel saved us both time and money in the end. He finished all of his work well before other electricians were scheduled to give their estimate (!). His workers were respectful and careful: my wife even took to referring to his main assistant as 'the Gentle Giant.""

As well, Tim's business is local, and he's got extensive knowledge of local contractors and home inspectors (including what they'll flag on inspection) as well as local real estate markets. His advice goes well beyond the job at hand.

We have no doubt we'll be hiring Tim again.
