Electrical reviews in Placerville, California

I am extremely happy with Sanders Electric. Brenton and his team knocked it out of the park with my solar project. This was a sizable and complex residential solar project with multiple disconnect/transfer switches, two inverters, a battery, a generator and multiple buildings. I initially approached three contractors with my plans and chose Sanders for a few reasons. First, the approach Brenton took in assessing and quoting the job was open, honest and direct. He’s great to work with, is extremely knowledgeable and is great at finding a way through challenges to end up with a great result.

Second, he and his team delivered from start to finish. To be fair, I have high standards. From idea to bid to completed project, the work was top notch and exceeded my expectations throughout. Brenton and his team clearly take pride in their work and the result shows.

Finally, there was an “X” factor with Sanders. In my experience, the norm for contractors is to use things without asking, leave a mess and be careless with someone’s property. For example, I’ve had contractors see materials nearby and use them without asking. Brenton and his crew were exactly the opposite. Not only did they leave the site clean and tidy, they carefully set aside unused materials and existing things that were removed to complete the job. They didn’t use materials without asking, picked up discarded items (like stripped wire insulation, tape, etc.) and even vacuumed metal chips (from drilling, etc) out from inside all the panels. When something came up (as it does in all projects) that required a change – even a tiny change, rather than just charging ahead, they explained and asked, “This is what we found, here’s what we believe is the right solution, are you okay with it?” Sanders showed courtesy and integrity that seems to be a rarity these days. I found their attention to detail, pride in their work and respect for the customer to be exceptional and very much welcome.

I highly recommend Sanders for electrical work and will definitely hire them for any needs I have in the future.

I have used Sanders Electric several times, and each time Brenton Sanders has been quick to respond, is super knowledgeable about his craft, and is highly courteous and extremely efficient. He is always cheerful and eager to help and never leaves a job undone. Among the numerous jobs he has done are repairing and replacing outdoor landscape lights, repairing and replacing a switch in my wall water heater, and repairing my wine refrigerator. I highly recommend Sanders Electric. Brenton Sanders will not disappoint.

I was amazed that the phone was answered by Brenton on a Sunday & I was able to make appointment for the next morning. Brenton kept in touch by texting who was coming & arrival time. Nick arrived on time, evaluated the situation, got an estimate for completing the project & had Christian come to assist. To my surprise, they were able to do it all that day without any delays or surprise charges.
Thank you!

I've had an excellent experience working with Brenton. In addition to some smaller electrical projects like replacing pool pumps and a whole house fan, he and his team designed and installed a very large, complicated solar + battery system on our property. He was very responsive and easy to work with throughout the process. When I had questions or concerns or wanted to advocate for a particular approach, he was always receptive to my input -- but when I preferred to defer to his judgment, I could trust him to choose the best solution for my specific needs. So far the system has worked well and I'm definitely happy that I chose to hire him for the job.

We've hired Brenton to do a bunch of different electrical projects around our house, from small things like replacing or moving outlets to completely redoing our electrical panel and setting up an automated gate system. Brenton and his crew have been a pleasure to work with every time. His guys always show up on time and are very respectful, and everyone is easy to work with. Brenton is also reasonably priced, especially on larger projects.

Brenton was one of three electricians I contacted regarding a whole house generator. Most of the other guys didn’t have time to even come visit my house, but we’re more than willing to shoot me an extremely high quote over the phone. Brenton showed up and calculated my electrical needs. Told me I didn’t need the biggest generator… A smaller one would be sufficient and it would use less propane. That was very nice of him to not just shoot for the moon with the equipment. When I agreed to have him do the work, he said a reasonable amount of time until he would return and install the generator.He communicated before the date and let me know when to expect his guys. Said guys showed up in new clean trucks with Milwaukee power tools, and proceeded to get busy. Brenton oversaw the job and his guys completed the work in a timely fashion. When they were done, they walked me through the generators operation and let me know what to expect. In my dealings thus far with Brenton, I have no qualms about him communicating to me in the future if I need help, I can’t recommend these guys enough.

I’m a builder and professor. I hired Sander’s Electric for a 20kW ground mount solar with Gateway 3, two Powerwall 3s, and Tesla wall charger. They mounted the rack, solar panels, installed inverters, batteries, security camera, charger, outlet, and made all the DC and AC connections. The final inspection and commissioning were seamless. Brenton, Nick, Christian, and Joel were polite, professional, clean, respectful, and promptly completed the work. They didn’t smoke or vape or curse, and maintained good hygiene on site. Brenton was knowledgeable, conscientious, available and responsive. After working with dozens of electricians in the past, I not only enjoyed working Sanders but recognized their work to be of high caliber. I plan to call on them again for future projects. I highly recommend them.

Mr Sanders came out and did our panel relocation. I got three quotes and the price was right in the middle, but I felt the best about the quality of work, communication and professionalism with this company. He helped explore different options, pricing tiers and potential issues we might run into. Would recommend Brenton for any electrical jobs. Very happy with the panel, labeling and had a crew of 4 come out and finish in one day to limit the time we had power off.
