Very talented guy, he's a warrior in knowing the plan and executing the plan with precision for a successful outcome. He can handle all the details, he is very detailed, timely updates, understands safety, code issues and the complexity of a situation without too many details.

After trying to change a light bulb on an unwieldy fixture and accidentally breaking the wires, I tried to find a repair person. The first two I contacted didn't call back, probably because it was a small job. Then I found Tim's business on the internet. I'm so glad I did. Tim fixed the wiring right away, then because it only took a few minutes he left to get better replacement bulbs. He further provided advice about better alternatives for the lighting situation.

I would highly recommend this business. Very professional and a very nice person. Tim is now permanently on my contact list.

Thanks so much Tim. Marti

Tim to the rescue ... again!

Had thee possible wiring projects for Tim including a garage door that was misbehaving, an apparently superfluous light switch, and a pair of exterior flood lights that appeared to have given up the ghost.

I first contacted Tim in December just before he was about to leave for an extended vacation; the first date he had available was in late February. I could have told him to forget it, and looked for some other electrician; but both Tim and Neil have done work for me in the past and they are quite simply the best at what they do: Professional, prompt, courteous, knowledgeable, and fair.

As usual, Tim showed up right on time, and was done with all three projects within a couple of hours. Three cheers for Tim, Neil and all the good folks at Electric City!

P.S. Just had to update this: Tim did another job for me, another flood light issue which I thought would be really simple. But Tim discovered an exposed and frayed wire that had been sparking up against a wooden doorframe! Pretty scary stuff and if Tim had not discovered it, the property I manage might have gone up in smoke. Tim is a life-saver ... literally!

I wrote a review once before, but for some reason it's not appearing. Tim is top notch! I have a rental in the city and he has done lighting work for me whenever I need assistance. He is willing to go out of his way to help with short notice and whenever he can accommodate. Tim is a people person and truly cares about his clients. He is professional, curious, knowledgable and someone I know I can always depend on. I highly recommend using Tim for any of any electrical needs.

Tim is a solid professional. I would recommend him for any project. Knowledgable and nice to talk with on a personal level. Everything was done quickly and professionally.

I called Tim after contacting another electrician who couldn't come until the next day. And was so happy I did. Tim arranged to come the same day, explained to me why I had lost power in 2 rooms in my condo, and was able to fix the problem quickly.

Tim is such a nice guy, so willing to answer questions and go the extra mile. He has that hometown, good neighbor personality on top of being a great electrician. I'm recommending him to my HOA and all my friends.

These guys saved the day!

I am the chief engineer at a boutique hotel in Union Square, San Francisco. I recently had a subpanel completely fail. The equipment connected to it ran the 4 star restaurant on site. With much chagrin I had to close our restaurant down. Tim Pearson Electric was at my hotel within an hour. Tim identified the problem, collected the necessary parts and was on the job within two hours. Tim and Niel work tirelessly through the night. These gentlemen know their stuff. Tim not only had me up and readyfor dinner the next day, but kept me informed evey step of the way. Niel was the man at clearing each hurdle that arrised due to working in a very old hotel with little to no room and an extreme time schedule.

In a nut shell these guys handled business qick and clean. Cleared thier schedule and made my retsuarant the #1 priority until we were happy. Whether you find yourself needing a brand new panel, or a light fixture installed in your new kitchen, TIM PEARSON ELECTRIC is the crew to call. You won't be disappointed!

I was trying to install a dimmer switch in my new (very old!) Victorian flat, and I messed it up. There was a smokey ""pop"" and I thought, ""Crap. I'm going to burn the house down."" I called five or six places, only got voice mail; it was hard to find an electrician on such short notice. But Tim himself answered when I called his business, and he was able to come right over. He was polite and kind and even gave me a mini-lesson on wiring! I love this guy.

Called Tim on Tuesday to arrange for him to come on Friday. Lot's of noise from TV in background so he asked me to text my number and address and he would contact me Fri AM to let me know what time he would be here. I told him I was available from 10 am until 3:30 PM. Sent a text at 10 AM today (Fri) to let him know I was here and asked him to let me know when he was planning on coming. Texted again an hour Called a couple hours later when no response. Texted him an hour later and still no response. It is now 3:30 and I have to leave. Very unprofessional. I told him I contacted him solely because of the great YELP reviews. Guess that was a mistake!
