    Primo Electric - New electric installed for light fixture

    Primo Electric

    (199 reviews)

    This review is long overdue…read more My husband and I bought our house in 2022 and the first things we wanted to do was install our car charger and have someone look at our old electric to figure out if we needed to prioritize upgrades. Primo was the third company we reached out to for estimates and we chose them off of good vibes and competitive prices. I'm grateful for it. These guys are solid, honest people and won't recommend things you don't need. In fact, if you have a wild idea for something that is unnecessary or costly, they'll tell you up front so you know in advance. In addition to doing things the right way, they're respectful. I've chatted with a few companies about various house projects and David and Jesse treated me (a woman) like my input matters just as much as my husband's. It signals competence, excellence, and professionalism when, even though I say "my husband is the boss," a contractor checks with me just in case. And, it prevents arguments down the road. We've rehired Primo for light fixture swaps, outlet adds, new switch fixtures, and we plan to hire them for our upcoming upgrades because they're all around good people who do good work. Primo is a business that you root for, and are proud to support as a customer. We'll continue to work with Primo on our electric needs for all of these reasons and more. Thanks, guys!

    I had Primo Electric upgrade my old 1959 electrical panel and install a car charger in the garage…read more David the owner handled all the city planning permits and requirements for the job. I can't tell you how impressed I was with his professional and friendly service. Not only that he had his 5 man crew come in and start the job. They all worked as a team knowing what every man was suppose to do. They were professional, friendly and I could tell they took pride in their workmanship. Couldn't asked for more. Thanks David. You guys are the best! I highly recommend them and will be calling on them for all my future electrical needs.

    We are extremely grateful we used East West Electric to do our house rewire. We bought a 1922 build…read morehouse and the home inspection identified wiring concerns. Vartan gave us several options and costing to resolve. He didn't try and push any one option but did a great job of explaining the pros and cons of each. We went with a panel upgrade and a total house rewire. Vartan was on top of the project from day one. Permitting could have been a lengthy delay but we got it in a day, in large part because Vartan worked with the inspector directly and took the initiative to ensure both his and my responsibilities were carried out in a timely fashion. He and his crew were punctual, polite and made every effort to minimize the impact they were making on the house as they ran the new wires. Cuts in the drywall were clean circles and they even saved the inserts to facilitate patching once they were done. Communication with Vartan throughout the project was very straight forward. He was very flexible about our specific needs for the house and replaced bedroom lights with ceiling fans and added a living room light at no extra cost for the labor. He made sure he understood what we wanted for our new home and went out of his way to make sure the wiring and hardware were a good fit. His total cost was very reasonable and the lower of the two bids we received for the job. I will be using Vartan and his crew for any future electrical needs and giving his details to any friends asking for an electrician referral. I am confident you too will be very pleased if you employ East West Electric.

    Don't make the mistake I've made in the past by hiring folks who don't have licenses. I did that in…read morethe past trying to save a few bucks on some small projects at the house, but in the long run it'll cost you. In this case, I had called East West to come install a 20 amp outlet. I selected them because of their excellent Yelp reviews and they gave me a fair price for the work to be done. Once Nshan and his assistant came down, he took a few minutes to assess the situation and gave me a plan that made a lot of sense. He ran into some minor issues due to some sloppy, lazy work done by a previous "electrician," but he managed to resolve those issues. A couple hours later, he was done. The job looked professional, clean, and exactly what I wanted. East West is a family-run business and they treat their customers with respect and honesty. I would definitely recommend them for any of your electrical needs.

    Peter was one of many electricians that I contacted to help me with two work items I had…read more The first work item Peter helped me with was to separate ground and neutral wires in my detached garage sub-panel. He worked with limited space (small sub-panel) and some neutral wire length constraints. Rather than try to upsell another, more costly solution, he was able to work with what I had to produce a high quality result at a very competitive price. The second work item I had Peter help me with was installing a 40 amp 2 pole breaker and an accompanying NEMA 14-50 receptacle for EV charging. He did a fast, clean and high quality job. Everything works perfectly! Before coming, Peter and I corresponded a lot through phone and text. He asked me great questions about my specific use case and tailored a solution to my use case. I appreciated how thoughtful and thorough he was in explaining everything he wanted and needed to do. He kept exactly to what we discussed and didn't try to upsell/do any necessary work. This was a very honest and pleasant experience. Price wise, he was the most competitive by far (probably because he was the most honest about what he would do). I contacted 4 other electricians and they all quoted $300-1500 above Peter's quote. They also tried to do a lot of unnecessary, expensive work. I will definitely have Peter come out again if I have any other electrical needs.

    Peter was great! He responded to my request right away, gave me a time frame for the next day…read moreappointment, and texted me with an ETA. He explained things clearly and gave us a solution that would help us find the root cause of our electrical issue. We'll be reaching out again!

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose family owned, READY ELECTRIC. After speaking…read morewith Jesse initially, we felt confident we had chosen the right company, as they were friendly and highly accommodating to our schedule and needs. We were equally impressed by Jr's professionalism, knowledge, and workmanship. He listened carefully to our requirements and used his skills and foresight to successfully complete the project. We are so pleased with the results that we have already referred Ready Electric to our family and neighbors. Thank you Jesse & Jr for your prompt service, cleanliness and outstanding work. It's clear that you take great pride in what you do!

    I had an emergency situation that ultimately called for a full panel upgrade. We scheduled a visit…read moreto check out the problem the next day, which was not an emergency inspection or anything. He came to check out the problem and give me a quote. Overall, he was thorough in explaining stuff. What rubbed me the wrong way was how after I asked him for a quote and told him I have one other person checking it out to give me a quote, his tone changed. I explained that this is an expensive project and it would be dumb to just get your price and go with it without checking with at least one other company. I'm not made out of money here. He then gave me the quote and it was literally like twice the range of most panel upgrades. I get that you're licensed, but so are most of these companies. I feel like because of my situation (Edison had cut the power to my place), he was just taking advantage. Admittedly, I was desperate to get it fixed, but I'm not going to pay almost 12k for something that costs around 5k. So he gives me the quote breakdown and four options (all way over average prices), and then I say thanks and that again, someone is also going to stop by and take a look and I'll text him either way. He then gave me a guilt trip about how they reserved the day for me and how it sucks that I'm not just taking the job. At that point, even if the second guy wasn't going to work out, I was not going with this company. Fortunately, the second guy (also licensed) that came was able to pull some strings and get everything done --meter checked, permitted--the next day for a fraction of what Ready Electric quoted me. Power is back on and I didn't spend more than I needed to. For those of you needing electric work: shop around. Oftentimes we need this kind of work done ASAP, but companies will definitely take advantage as was this case. 3 stars because they responded quick and did explain things thoroughly. Clarification based on Ready Electric's reply: The quote was $11,600 for a standard panel upgrade. Yes, my panel was in bad shape, but I was not misrepresenting the situation. If anything, to suggest that your most affordable option was $1k when it was really (according to you) not really an option at all (with zero warranty even) and to leave out your main recommendation (the panel upgrade) is misrepresentative. I credit you for going out of your way and explaining stuff, and I would imagine that as a business, that part of the getting business is time-consuming. Apparently there was an inspection fee that was waived, and the gentlemen that came even asked, "how did you get the inspection fee waived?" Well, no fee was ever mentioned upon calling and making an appointment, and had there been, I would have never made the appointment in the first place. You mentioned that you understand people would get a second opinion and that's good; however, the whole reason I wrote my review (which I rarely do) was because of the guilt trip I was given for doing so. It was unnecessary and a poor persuasion technique. If I were to have said I have another guy coming to get a second opinion and you were like, "absolutely, just let us know if you decide to move forward with us," I would have never wrote my review, or I would've written one that praised the thoroughness of your quoting process. Also, the guy I went with was a referral from my brother's current contractor, but he has never worked with any of us directly. So we didn't have an existing relationship or anything. In fact, when I told him what i was quoted, he laughed and said that's just people trying to take advantage. Again, the point of my review was ultimately to warn people to shop around and not go with the first quote you get, especially if you're in a pinch like I was. Another day without electricity is worth not getting ripped off.
