Electrical reviews in San Rafael, California

Jacob, the owner of Brite Design Electric, created a striking display of under-stair lighting that perfectly solved the visibility problem that has challenged us for years. And he loved the opportunity to create this masterpiece that is both beautiful and gives us a sense of safety. On time and on budget. It's a WIN - WIN!

Osvaldo from Bright Design Electric removed our defective wall microwave and installed our new microwave for us. He made sure our receptacle was safe and not the issue. He was prompt, knowledgeable and respectful of our property. The price of the visit was reasonable and we will use them again.

Knowledgable and fast - he understood the problem, and he made a good plan.

We’ve worked with Urban Energy on numerous residential and commercial project. Their crew knows how to take care of business.

These guys were awesome. Extremely quick, efficient and on-time. Great work at a really reasonable price. I've now found my new electrician in San Francisco.

The team at Urban Energy really came through for us on our solar project. We had a tight deadline and ambitious plans and everything came together great. Highly recommend!

I called Urban Energy after experiencing power outages caused by an unwanted rodent. Turns out mice are a big fan of electrical wiring!!!

Being a bit of a D.I.Y enthusiast, I decided to try and carry out the work myself. Awful idea, and I ended up getting an unmerciful electrical shock for my troubles. Reluctantly, I decided it might be time to get a proper electrician. (Well my wife decided really.)

We called Fergal on the Thursday evening, and he arranged a time that suited us on the Saturday morning. In addition to the wiring job, he gave us a free estimate for an electrical dryer plug and the cost of installing a new kitchen fan.

When he was finished he explained why the mice chew on wires (they use the PVC to sharpen their teeth) and what we can do to prevent future incidents (ultrasonic units).

With my new-found electrical knowledge, maybe I’ll be more successful with my future endeavors (unlikely though, knowing my wife). But if not, at least I have a new genuinely trustworthy electrician.

Looking for an electrician? I’d genuinely recommend Urban Energy for the job. We hired Fergal and

the team to help us with our kitchen retrofit. We got in touch with some local electricians, but to be

honest, they just weren’t in the same league as these guys.

So the job? We were putting in floor and wall outlets, lighting and surge protection. Although he told

us he normally doesn’t work with HVAC, we asked Fergal to install a Nest Smoke Alarm, which he

dutifully installed.

If I was in the market for an electrician once more, I’d definitely get onto these guys again. Five stars.

We worked with Urban Energy on a series of electrical issues at our home in Potrero Hill in San Francisco and we plan on working with them again in the future. Their electricians go the extra mile to provide great technical work and excellent customer service. This team is capable of doing very complex, state of the art work and all the basics. We even needed some computing components to make something work in our house and they took the time to help us select and install the right devices. We also had a consistent point of contact, Fergal Mac Donnell, and we look forward to working with him whenever we have an appointment. I would recommend these electricians to people who have very complex jobs involving programming, wireless, etc. as well as basic jobs like putting in extra outlets in closets.

Urban installed an EV charger in my parking garage. The installation was done on schedule and on budget. The technicians were polite. Communication during the project was thorough and timely. I'd work with them again anytime.

We used Urban Energy Electricians for a small circuit rewiring in our basement. They had a cancellation so were able to get us down in the Outer Sunset in the next day which was a massive bonus.

They were on time and got the work done to the standard I expected and with a great price to boot. Definitely my go to electrical contractor for future work.

Excellent work in my home, dealt with our useless old wiring and got everything working perfectly (with some lovely modern upgrades). Always on time, always had the rights tools and parts with them (unlike others!), great people, easy to discuss things with, and excellently priced for what you get.

I am extremely picky about details - these guys did a phenomenal job, nice and tidy, and definitely one of the most thorough and professional installations I've seen. I've used a few electrical contractors in the past - Fergal and the Urban Energy team will always get the call in the future.

We recently bought a new apartment in the Financial District. As somebody who considers themselves pretty safety conscious, I just wasn’t happy with the previous electricians work in our new place.
We got the guys in to upgrade and install a new electrical panel. We also put in dedicated circuits to prevent against any potential surges.)
Sure, we could have carried out the work cheaper with unlicensed electrician who isn’t accountable, but that's a risk; and I don't gamble with electrical issues.

They recently completed some work on my behalf and from quotation provided, an excellent service from start to finish. They quickly provided a satisfactory quote and finished the work promptly.

We have had Altitude Electrical Contracting company for our electric needs since 2018. The whole team is fantastic, right from the phone call to make an appointment. Greg was here today and as always prompt, friendly, professional, thorough, informative and conscientious. Thanks for a job well done on some very complex outdoor electrical lighting issues and installation of new lighting!

Very helpful

Best place to get electrical supplies. Phil will take care of you

Very unpleasant experience with this electrician. It was my mistake for not asking for a set price at the beginning--but I trusted him because of a friend's referral. He got the two lights that I bought hooked up to existing wires in a normal period of time (about 1 hr) . However he ended up charging me another 5 hours at $90/hr to install a new ceiling fan that I purchased, including all the parts he asked me to get. He kept having problems figuring it out, and worst of all, kept "forgetting" to do things--he had to repeatedly keep taking the fan down and putting back up, because he forgot to use all the proper supplied parts per instructions--all the while wasting precious time. Despite taking at least 2 or 3 extra hours because of his mistakes, Mr. Powell still charged me for a full day : 6 hours x $90 = $540! I will never again allow an electrician to bill a job by the hour! In fact I now wished I would have done all this work myself since I had all the parts and materials--and if I wasn't busy doing my taxes--I could have easily done all he did in LESS time (I DO read directions) and my labor would have been free->Lesson learned: ALWAYS get a written quote before you hire Powell Electric for anything!

We could not be happier with the service provided by Elex Solutions. We worked with Tarmo, who was on time, clean, fast and extremely knowledgeable. Will use again and will highly recommend.

Elex Solutions was excellent! Extremely responsive, easy to work with, and professional across the board. I highly recommend them.

Tarmo and the Elex team are fantastic! They were quick, professional, and went above and beyond our simple home wiring job (they even removed some ancient wires that were eye sores on the outside of our house). I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for an electrician!
