Recommended Customer Reviews

My experience with Dave was nothing short of excellent! I was in a jam, big time, with what I would call rather extensive work including a panel replacement and old work never completed or simply done wrong. The time frame was less than two weeks due to other coordinated events at the house to put it to market.
I left Dave a voicemail, he returned the call in minutes. Other highly rated electricians in the area never, and I mean never, returned a call....not even a courtesy call after leaving more than one voicemail. Back to Dave ... that same day he made it to the house within a few hours, he evaluated the entire project, provided a very reasonable, fair quote ... and promised to have the job done on time.
Fast forward to today ... the job is done, on time, on quote, no surprises ... on top of inclement weather postponing the exterior work for over 3 days. I am on the east coast, Dave was in constant communication on status, and provided pics on work completed and in process, as well as suggestions and helpful comments on things that made sense for us to consider.
His work is clean and professional, Dave knows his stuff and is a pleasure to work with.
Based on my experience, I would be skeptical of any review that says otherwise.

Dave was able to fix my Main Electric Box almost right away and was very sensitive with my time frame. His workmanship and professionalism exceeded my expectations. He runs a very honest business and will be very fair while being very competitive. In other words, he will not try to over sell you and will will give you an honest price as well as provide quality workmanship.

We've had Dave fix a number of electrical issues ranging from a doorbell that didn't work, a bathroom plug that kept tripping the breaker and a new electrical panel for a rental house. Today, he fixed my washing machine. The previous service tech (from a warranty company) stole the code manual for our washer so we were stuck trying to find out what our error code meant. A local service tech told us it was a drain issue but that wasn't the case. When my husband noticed that a wire had come out of a harness, he called Dave. We sent him a picture and he said he could fix it. Job is done, the washer works and I'm a happy camper.

DO NOT HIRE HIM - he is unlicensed. I had him do some work for me as part of a project with PGE. I had to hire another electrician to get his work inspected and permitted before PGE could complete the job. He could not get a permit or an inspection because he doesn't have a license. Any work done over 500.00 is illegal without a licences. He lied to me about this and strung this along for months calming he would make sure I didn't need a permit without ever admitting he could not get one. He is also very flakey. I heard all the excuses..funeral, truck broke down, didn't have the money to buy the supplies. I feel really stupid for trusting him but I learned by lesson. Always check to see that your professionals have a license. Just google state of California license board. It takes 5 seconds and will save you a world of hurt.

Just wanted to write a follow up review after having to undo this guys poor job on my hot tub wiring. He ran a plastic conduit along the side of our house rather than burying it as code dictates and I had to get everything done over again. If you ask anyone around Pacifica who to avoid for electrical work, this is the guy they will mention.

He was great, reasonable, friendly and efficient. To repair rather than replace an old under-counter light, he suggested we get a new ballast, but his supplier was expensive, he told me what to get, I got it online for 1/4 the cost and he installed it within a few minutes. Great working with him.

As other reviewers have pointed out, Dave is pretty flaky. He worked on a project with me that was going to take a week, but dragged on much longer. Three days in a row he said he would come by but did not, even after confirming on the phone in the morning.
He is very friendly and enjoys chatting. He even had a few good ideas for improving the kitchen. He just isn't very prompt. If you have a small project, using Dave for a few hours is probably OK. On a larger project, be aware you may not be seeing him often.

What a blessing I was referred to Dave. My electrical panel caught on fire during the big storm. I called Dave on Saturday and on Sunday he met with me and gave me a proposal. As soon as I gave the word go he was at my house that day and finished the job without getting paid until the following day. I was so happy to have my power back. He is professional and working with him was very pleasant. He took great care of me and is such a nice guy. I will definitely call him again.

2 hours late for 1st appointment..........I WILL BE BACK TOMORROW.......AFTER 5 MINUTES AT OUR HOUSE. HAVE NO IDEA IF HE IS GOOD OR NOT AS TO THIS DATE 2 MONTHS OR SO LATER HE HAS NEVER COME BACK OR CALLED, I f you don't want to or can't do a job just say so...other business people are happy to work.
There are other electricians in Pacific who were happy to do the job. So if you want someone unreliable call Dave.

Dave is unreliable and a liar to boot. We scheduled Dave to come to our house and he never showed up. The guy just talks and talks. Wound up using Franmore and they were just superb
