Recommended Customer Reviews
Victor is an experienced electrician.
He solved a complex electrical problem in a very short time.
He is extremely honest and competent.
Highly recommended.
Eric S.Had Victor install Tesla HPWC on a 100 amp breaker along with an additional 14-50 outlet on its own 50 amp breaker. Huge diff between him and various other electricians. He was thorough in reading the main panel specs, looking at the existing wiring, and measuring out the distances needed for the wiring and conduit. In the end, his price was in the low-mid range of the other 3 quotes I got.
Very pleased with the service and price!
I'm a new home owner and my home needed 4 ceiling fans installed upstairs. Natually I called around first to find a quote where I'd get high quality service for a price that worked within my budget. Victor from VC Electric came over today and delivered just that. Not only was his estimate accurate and fair, he also finished installing all 4 fans by the afternoon! On top of all that Victor pointed out how my smoke detectors were not properly wired, which the prior owner didnt even point out when I bought the house. Long story short I'll only be calling VC for any electrical work in the future!
I needed an electrician pretty quickly so I decided to go to Yelp and find someone on a Sunday. After reviewing the feedback on Victor, I decided to call him. Given that it was a Sunday, I had no expectation that he would answer the call. He did and indicated that he would be able to come between 4 and 6pm the next day. I made every effort to leave work so I can meet him at the house by 4pm. Unfortunately, I was delayed. He showed up promptly at 4pm and went to work (my wife was home to let him in). By the time I walked in to the house at 4:45pm, the work was done to perfection!!!
This review is a long time in coming; my project was completed on April 4th, 2014.
I am very satisfied with Victor + teams' work in my home. Victor was the only electrician to answer my calls after trying 7 different phone numbers via Yelp. His assessment appointment was quick, and cost nothing. He identified the problem quickly, gave a recommendation, and then named his costs. When I asked him to specify what exactly made the project cost what it did, he broke the list down by component, labor, and extra materials needed. I thought he charged fairly for labor.
Victor and his team arrived 10 minutes early. They removed a 50+ year old kitchen and dining area lighting system + non-functioning chandelier, and installed 10 LED recessed ceiling lights + a dimmer switch by rewiring through the attic-space and cutting bigger holes in the ceiling. They also did a lot of extra work without extra charge; all in all, the job was finished with 2 hours to spare (from the time frame they had given me).
Victor and his men were focused, friendly, and careful. They cleaned up before and after the job was done. Victor had to take a lot of calls during the job; several people were requesting his services throughout the day. He and his men clearly knew what they were doing; they didn't have to backtrack or wait for more parts to come.
Victor is very responsive; if you call him and he doesn't pick up, leave your phone number, and he will call or text you as soon as he can (always within 15 minutes in my experience). Victor actually came back a week later on his own time to help recycle the parts that came down from the old lightning system, since I was at a loss as to what to do with them. I appreciate the time he and his team took to do a professional job. I highly recommend them for electrical jobs both big and small.
I wanted some work requiring running new 240 volt line for the installation of a new appliance. The other quote I had gotten was $$$$, but I searched in online forums and found other references to Victor and his firm. My installation was tricky, involving someone crawling 100 feet under my house, lots of conduit, and delicate work fitting it into the existing panel. Victor was able to fit me in very quickly. He was on time, pleasant, gave me a good feeling that safety and quality were his foremost concerns, and billed me very fairly. I couldn't be more pleased.
RENA W.I phoned Victor on Sunday and he called me Monday to make the appointment. We are switching our internet from AT&T to Xfinity and needed coaxial cable fished into the wall by the computer. Victor came out with his son and worked hard to located the existing cable. He had to spend time under the house finding the cable, cutting the hole in the wall and fishing it up. He was very knowledgeable and worked quickly and neatly. I come from a family of electricians (couldn't get one of them to come out!!) so I know that his price was very competitive. I will call him again if I need an electrician! Wonderful man.
Victor helped me pull an internet line thru my attic to the wall on the side of my office that didn't have an outlet. He helped me understand what my options were and discussed the pros/cons for them. He was very helpful and did a geat job. He was very flexible and accomodating to my schedule for a last minute change. I will recommend him.
Read the reviews and thought, ok sounds good. Victor fixed the immediate problem and was supposed to return the next day at 7:00 a.m. Was up and ready, no Victor, no call. Never heard from him again.
We had to do a major overhaul of all our electrical since it was very old and things were shorting out throughout the house. I checked Yelp and found Victor. He came out and gave me an estimate on what he thought we needed to do. We put in a new main panel, added more outlets to the kitchen and updated all the outlets throughout the house. A big job, but I felt Victor was honest and very responsive. The job went pretty smoothly, a couple hiccups on logistics but Victor and his guys took care of everything. They were very aware of the inconvenience of potentially being without power (which thankfully we were not). Based on his honesty, quality of work and professionalism, I would recommend VC Electric.
