We didn't know how bad our wiring was when we thought that all we needed was a new panel for our 45 year old home. We called on a Monday night and Jacob was at the house the very next morning at about 9:30 AM. We knew we needed a new electrical panel, a new dedicated line for the kitchen (for Air Fryers, etc.) and another new dedicated line for plug-in EV vehicle. After Jacob's assessment, he also recommended that we replace all the indoor & outdoor outlets and switches. Which was a good thing because we several potential serious problems that were corrected during the process. At first we thought the cost estimate was expensive but in reality it was actually fair. The amount of time and efforts that technicians but in was outstanding. Jacob & his team (Derian, Dante, Kerry) was great at understanding the problem and developing possible solutions to complete the job. AAA Electrical Services is who you want not just emergency electrical help but for all you electrical needs. read more

My experience today with.Derian Nario was so great..he was so professional.he went above & beyond to do a perfect job. Thank you young man for a great job.if I ever have another electrical issue,I know.who to call.it won't be "ghost busters" Lol read more

Jacob, Kerry, and Dante installed an electrical panel today. Last week they installed a ceiling light fixture. In both cases the service the service was amazingly fast. When I called about the light fixture, they were here and had it installed within two hours. Our cooktop would not work a few days ago. I called, and Kerry was here early the next morning. He enabled the cooktop to work and discovered several problems with our old electrical panel. The next day he had made arrangements to replace the electrical panel. The service from AAA Electrical Service is amazingly fast and efficient. Also their people are very considerate and easy to work with. read more

Great work by Jake and Derian installing my EV charger. Ran wires from throughout the house.

Kerry and Jake were great electricians. Very professional and knowledgable. I would strongly recommend going with them for your electrical needs. read more

Bad idea going with this company. Wish I had read the Yelp reviews first. Their general approach is to take advantage of a customer's eagerness to get a job completed by hitting them with an incredibly huge estimate just before starting the work. If I can persuade just one person not to contact them or hire them -- then mission accomplished. read more

Your technician Kerry showed up on time and is very knowledgeable. We had other issues with our electrical which Kerry quickly diagnosed and had all the repairs done to our satisfaction. Thanks Dennis and Leslie Yee read more

DO NOT USE! This company is trash. They came out to check out our problem, charged us $400 to tell us the only thing was that when we were resetting the breaker, we weren't switching it all the way off, only half way off. $400 for that.. Then when I asked if he could install the pendant lights that we have, he said it would be another $300... I said even though all you had to do was switch the breaker on and off? $400 for that? He replied "yeah that was a $400 mistake" Absolutely ridiculous. read more

BEWARE - They came out to give me a price for replacing two switches.. (see below) The price was 1130.00 To replace two light switches. They walked away with 95.00 for the price of the service call. I got the work done the next day for 150.00. Wished I had seen these other reviews ... Despicable !! BBB needs to hear about AAA read more

AAA Electrical Services - This is what I needed repaired.. they wanted 1150.00 to replace two of these. - Electricians Near Me - Sacramento, California

The good news is that the issue was fixed. The bad news is that I was charged $798 to replace a bad outlet. This "charge by the job, not by the hour" company is a bunch of pirates. If I had been charged by the hour, my bill would have been less than half. They were at the house for LESS THAN 2 HOURS. High end electricians at emergency rates top out at around $200 an hour. I live out of state, so everything had to be done over the phone. These folks were called by the tenant. I NEVER do business with "charge by the job" people. It's ALWAYS much more expensive. read more

Too expensive. Paid my month's social security check (2k) for 2 seemingly basic work. read more

I called AAA to come out to replace a breaker switch for a bedroom because my treadmill would trip the breaker when speed was applied. 2 people showed up for the service call. Why 2 persons, I don't know why. the first thing they did was to try to set up a monthly plan ? I didn't question all the sales promotion they had I just wanted the breaker replaced. Since they were replacing one breaker for bedroom 2 and 3, I said while your at it replace the master bedroom breaker as well. So they did as they said 20 minutes later they were done and brought the invoice to me. This is where I should have checked yelp for reviews, All the 1 stars showed and now I see why. Never Never use this company as they are PRICE GOUGERS. I know now to ALWAYS read yelp reviews before hiring someone for service. TOTAL PRICE was $542.65. This was for 2 replaced Breakers read more

I paid $420.00 to have light switches programmed, but on the same day none of the switches worked. Owner refused to refund. Used language that I was not comfortable with as a senior citizen. read more

The two guys that came to check my issue... fantastic!!! I was told on the phone there would be a $69 service call. When they arrived they let me know the company has a $721 trouble shooting fee. Okay. Pretty steep but I needed this issue fixed. They found the problem and were very detailed in their explanation of the issue. They contacted their boss and then quoted the fix at $1400. Absolutely crazy. The parts needed were probably less than $50 to run a bypass about 12 feet and this was a temporary solution. I had to reject the bid and contact another company... the greed is rampant in Sacramento..Unfortunate! I give them a rating of 2 only because the two guys were so professional read more

I was referred to AAA electric by my pool company because none of my equipment was working. I contacted AAA to set up an appointment and was able to get one within a few days but let them know I was available if a cancelation came up. Today they contacted me with a cancelation and Kerry and Al came to do the job. Both were very professional and knowledgeable. As we all know needing something repaired is very stressful. I am glad AAA is an honest company with the customer's satisfaction as a priority. I am very happy with my experience with AAA and will use them again in the future. read more

DO NOT USE!!! Absolutely a Bait and Switch company in my opinion. Called to have diagnostic check on one of our Solar Inverters. Came out next day for a $69.95 service call, did nothing but look at the system and write down notes. Then, BAM!, technician throws out the old $468.00 to go any further. When asked "what that entails" he stated he would open up the panels (3) and visually check and smell for possible burnt wires. That's it! No electrical readings or anything that would diagnose the issue with the inverter, which was the main reason we called them out!!! Told him (nice guy) that I could do that myself so no thank you. Shame on me, used them prior to repair wiring and breakers on our pool and they WAY overcharged us! Unfortunately I was going through cancer treatments and was not on top of my mental faculties. BOTTOM LINE: STAY CLEAR OF AAA ELECTRICAL SERVICES read more

The service is Electric services for like panels and breakers...terrible they are over priced and not professional at all they do crappy work and just terrible customer service no communication you would think a 10,000$$ job what catch some professionalism but nope they just wanted the money never hire them they also had our water heater left off for 2 days!!!!!! read more

Horribly overpriced for the service you receive. Diagnostic fees are outrageous and way more than other businesses charge. Felt like I was taken advantage of because of the urgency of my electrical issue. They try to upsell at every opportunity and make it seem like you need additional services that you don't, usually after already charging you for something else. They were at my house for two days before realizing the issue was with SMUD. Not before charging me thousands, of course. After SMUD solved the main issue (for free), I used an honest electrician to fix the few remaining nonfunctioning outlets. Turned out they weren't functioning because of some loose wiring in an outlet that AAA ES "fixed". We discussed all the other superfluous recommendations that AAA ES had made and he disagreed, confirming all of my concerns regarding the shady and predatory business practice of AAA Electrical Services. Customer service is also extremely poor. Their phone number is routed through some useless third-party service that protects Ed and everyone in the office from having to deal with all the frustrated marks that fell victim to their scammy business. You end up playing phone tag to get someone on the phone. Would give zero stars if I could. Overpriced and predatory. Stay away. read more

Alex Lukashonok was courteous and explained everything and went above and beyond. made sure I was happy with the outcome.

Worse Experience Ive ever had with a service! STAY AWAY. Read the reviews, very consistent. $750 to fix two exterior lights. Guess what, they were NEVER FIXED. Kept saying they needed to order a new part etc. Thats an additional $500.... WOW SCAM So I'm out $750 and they didn't fix a single thing. In fact the technician laughed about it Ed the Owner then called me afterward and yelled at me because I said I would be filing a report with the Better Business Bureau. Real professional dude. Worse customer experience I have ever experienced. This company is built on Price Gouging customers. read more

Some outlets and overhead lighting stopped working and I paid these guys $70 to figure out why and see what needs to be done to fix it. They told my wife it would be $1200 to fix everything and I thought that wasn't great but not terrible. They didn't leave an estimate or email it as promised. I called to find out what the problem was and why they didn't send me a written statement. Turns out the $1200 was for a "major diagnosis level III" whatever that is. I thought the $70 was for the diagnosis? They offered to change some light switches that working fine but aside from that did nothing. They're full of crap. Another electrician that actually knew what he was doing diagnosed and fixed the problem for $250 in an hour and a half. Glad I didn't these clowns read more

I hired AAA Electric for various projects.  They wired my house for a surveillance system and EV charging.  They also installed WiFi surveillance cameras and light fixtures.  Great customer service and high quality work. read more

I called AAA Electrical July 17 '24 as I needed smoke detectors replaced. The hardwired 10 yr battery had expired and two were going off loudly! Fire Dept. Responded and removed two detectors. I spoke with Jeff to relay my dilemma. He set up appointment for next day and said they carried my type of detectors on their truck. He NEVER mentioned a service trip fee! when Luis arrived next day I was told about the $69.95 charge for showing up. He also showed me the total amount to replace 5 smoke detectors. Detectors included. OMG- $2,283.00 outrageous and a ripoff. No way!!! I paid that undisclosed fee BUT should have disputed it. Beware-ask upfront for service trip fees. I got an Electrical Company (on Yelp) to replace five hardwired smoke detectors for $250.00 and I spent $200.00 at Home Depot to purchase detectors. TOTAL $450.00 VS. AAA Electrical proposal of $2,285.00 to do the job. Hope this helps ya'all... read more

The Tech. was nice, but WAY over charged; $620 to install one outdoor ceiling fan! He arrived at 8:15 and was out the door by 9:00 The job was very easy and the charge should have been at most $250. I am requesting a rebate of at least $300! read more

Super easy fix they were there 30 minutes and I was charged 700 dollars. Wish I would have done my research

Warning! This company is a straight scam! I initially called them out to check my GFI and price my pool for a light repair. I was told of a 69$ trip fee. The electrician Esteban came out to my house in Elk Grove and basically did nothing. The representative tested my GFI and stated it has power. I said exactly but when I plug a cord in there is no operation. He then quoted me near 500$ to replace a plug. I then asked him to price the pool light for replacement. He then told me I will have my manager email the quote. He then asked for the trip fee and left. read more

Don't use them. $65 diagnostic fee, that just gets them out .they won't do anything until you agree to one of there high price plans. They did not diagnose anything until I agreed to pay $395 to replace a GFCI that may or may not be the problem. Or $795 to diagnose and fix the problem. They should not say $65 diagnostics fee. read more

If I could give this company less than a one star I would. They arrived to replace a simple dimmer switch. Their first estimate was over $700. Next was over $400 and then after speaking with the owner (Ed) it was suddenly $150 and he would "slap" in whatever switch my tenant had supplied. Ed is a complete @$$hat. When I told him to do nothing, he said perfect - that'll be $59.00 Never use these company!!!!! read more

UNSCRUPULOUS BUSINESS! DO NOT USE! My elderly parents had their electrical panel go out with several melted breakers on a stormy Saturday afternoon. My father found this guy online and called. They came out and quoted 9800 bucks and charged their credit card a 1900 deposit. I came by on Monday when they were starting work and my dad had already sent them home. We got a quote today from a reputable electrician for $2500 max for the panel replacement. This is the going rate for a small panel replacement in the area (1500-3000). I called Ed the owner and he immediately started yelling at me and argued nonsense about permits he was getting etc (which were not ever pulled). We offered to pay for the reasonable time and materials for their expenses incurred for about 2 hours of work for two guys. He refused to refund the $1900 deposit they charged my 82 year old father who is not fully capable anymore of taking care of these situations mentally and does not have the financial resources to withstand nearly $10k for a scam. He mocked my father to me and the fact that I called on his behalf. No idea how terrible people like this can sleep at night and have no ethics. He quoted 4 times the average rate and told me he already had signatures for the deposit and wouldn't return any portion of it. He said we were doing a bait and switch. That's hilarious. This company takes advantage of elderly people and I'll be filing complaints with the state contractors board against this scam company. Unscrupulous fails to describe this company. STAY AWAY FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION. read more

Wow.... Caught in disbelief. This was by far the rudest company I have ever dealt with. I do not mean rudest electrical company, I mean rudest company, period. The owner is a complete @$$ and doesn't talk with you, he talks at you. He kept telling me what I needed not what I wanted... Talked rudely and tried to belittle during conversations. Heard him on the phone talking to an employee and accused our company of messing with the settings for the lights. Which we never messed with the settings as we have contacted them for the 2nd time to resolve. Would have went with a different contractor but landlord picked this company. While working at our location Ed talked to employees disrespectfully, I am shocked anyone would work for him. My only guess is that they are new in the industry and trying to gain experience. Find any other Electrician you will be much happier. read more

I was having company and needed the light switch in the dining room replaced (or so I thought). Since I was told they charge $69 just for showing up I had them look at 2 lights in my kitchen that hadn't worked for several years and had befuddled 2 yahoos in the past. They showed up, took a look at the problems and gave me an estimate of $600!! Gulp! Electrician #1 looked at the switch and saw a place for a battery. In 25 years I've never replaced one. I got one from my stash put it in and it worked. At that point, I appealed the $600 estimate and he lowered the estimate to $390. The problem with the 2 lights was burned out bulbs. I had two of those. Electrician #2 put them back up, I paid and we were good to go. Still seems pretty darn pricey. I wonder how much it would have been if I had not used my own supplies. read more

I called AAA to troubleshoot a problem I was having with my breaker tripping. The technicians looked at my breaker, and wrote me 3 estimates. $450 to replace an outlet, $750 to troubleshoot what was causing the problem and $850 to replace the breaker that was being tripped. I was told there was a $70 charge to come troubleshoot, but that $70 was paid to be told I don't know and I've never seen this type of problem. The technician then said "I'm 50/50 certain it's the breaker". So I was expected to pay $850 for his 50/50 guesstimate. Sorry I'll pass! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THESE SCAMMERS read more

Company charges $69 just to come out. Then the diagnostics is around $400. Replacement fans are $2000+. They initially said around $1200. Too expensive just to tell you that you need a new fan read more

An expensive lesson, Yelp first This weekend we unfortunately lost power to our subpanel as a large breaker tripped on our main panel. After failing to reset it we started calling electricians for help. The only reason for 1 stars is that AAA answered and sent someone quickly while most others were closed. Betty the dispatcher provided clear information about the process, including that written estimates for the repair would be shared before work was started and that all supplies should be on the truck. She also noted the $266 emergency weekend fee. Once the technician arrived we described our problem with the breaker. His quote, without looking at the subpanel was that he would need to do a "diagnosis" which cost $667. This was frustrating as it was our understanding that we would get a quote for the repair, not an outrageous amount to look, with potential additional charges depending on what was found. He warned us that he doesn't stock the Zinsco Breaker that was our main panel problem, so he would potentially have to go to the store and charge us more, contradicting Betty the dispatcher. Also there was an additional $23 charge for gas on top of the weekend fee, that "the dispatcher forgets to mention". Since we had already paid close to $300 for the tech's presence and no other help was available we felt cornered into moving forward. After we signed we showed the tech the subpanel, and left him to "diagnose" our breaker that wouldn't reset. 10 minutes later the power is back on, and we were getting a lesson that you need to "pump" Zinsco Breakers a few times to get them to reset. That was our problem. Something he could have shared or even tried when he first arrived, we were already paying him a hefty sum to be there. But alas we are now out close to $1,000, but with the knowledge that you "pump" a Zinsco Breaker and to never call AAA Electrical Services. Additional Note: AAA's method of signing quotes also leaves plenty to be desired, the tech mentioned that the iPad frequently "double charges" for things like the emergency fee, but to "sign anyway". This did happen, and thankfully after I caught it the tech did the right thing and removed the double charge. The tech also had us sign that the work had been completed, saying that was how to "approve the quote" on the iPad, making us feel uncomfortable as no work had been done yet. read more

-0 star! I'm writing this review to help people staying far far far away from AAA electrical company. The owner Ed J. Is a big piece of shits! He is extremely ruded, deep attitudes and liar and big scammer. He scammed me $1,500.00 to installed a ceiling fan with no prewiring in a small bedroom. Then the serviced turned out awful then need a second visit to my house and he tried to scam me for another $650.00 I quickly kicking him out of my house and said he is a hassle shits. Omg!!! I never ever seen a scammer guy in bussinese like him in my whole entire life. WHEWWW! I made a big mistake . Should've reading on all his negative yelp review before serviced started. Lesson learned big time. Anyways I got more electrical stuffs need to be done. Now I'll do big search to get the reasonable price! If any bodies have the extra $$$ to throw away. I highly recommended rather do the donations to the childrens and animals hospitals. Then u'll be borned in a loyalty again in yours next life. Believe me. Thanks for reading. Now when I see any bussineses got 2 stars on theirs review. That means they are awful,so leave them alone . Thanks! AAA ELECTRICAL COMPANY GOT 99% NEGATIVE REVIEWED ON YELP + IS STILL TRYING TO SCAM LOYALTY CUSTOMERS. AWFUL. read more

This is a company that ripped me off totally. Please people when people give a negative review it's not for their health it's to help you guys out so that you don't get taken to the bank like we did.!! This guy was sent by American presidential warranty which I had to pay $55 to have him come out and check out what the problem was. So after 5 days of not having water finally came out! 3 days was because of American residential warranty and two days was because the AAA electric. So when Edward eventually got there to check out the problem on my water pressure switch. He sat himself down on the ground tapped on the water pressure switch for about a half an hour and told me to be able to fix it it would cost me $750 for 15 minutes job. That wasn't even including parts. I don't get me wrong Eric it's nice but to be trying to take an early person to the bank is totally wrong and out of line for his company to try to take advantage of people like this. So I paid arw nearly $190 then I paid Edward to service which was $55 then he sent the bill to AR w for $300 and didn't do nothing to receive that money. He ripped off me he ripped up (ARW). SO IN TURN I HAD TO PAY ANOTHER CONTRACTOR TO COME OUT WHICH COST ME $310 Dollars. TO HAVE MY WATER PRESSURE SWITCH REPAIRED. I am so tired of these contractors coming out and taking advantage of the elderly people and trying to get away with it. There are several things that can be done to stop contractors who try to take advantage of people. 1. Go to the contractor's board file a claim 2. Put it on Yelp. 3. Contact BBB the better Business bureau. And if none of those avenues work for you take him to Small Claims Court. Edward at AAA electric I want my money back I'm requesting the whole $355 that you received from American residential warranty which you did was unspeakable. Work for your money don't rip people off to get your money!! Plus next time you inspected job make sure you fully inspect it because it wasn't the box it was the tubing that needed to be repaired because it was clogged up!! read more

See all

Showed up on time - good. Wanted $2300 to install a doorbell - ridiculous. $60 non-refundable trip fee - bad. I wouldn't recommend these guys. read more

They over sold the requirements and time for the appraisal. Pressured me to commit to the highest option. then completed the job in ten minutes and charged me $800 dollars. It was a total rip off. I do not recommend this company. I called the service manager to see if he could reevaluate the work vs the estimate his name is Ed and he said that I paid for there expertise that is why they got it done so quickly. I say if you are experts you should be better at diagnosis and customer care. In my opinion you made the problem seem worse than it was and then swindled me. read more
