I had an excellent experience working with Alpha Omega Electric and highly recommend them without hesitation. From the very first interaction, Ryan has been incredibly helpful, approachable, and responsive. He takes the time to listen and is always willing to provide thoughtful guidance and clear quotes whenever I have a new idea or project in mind. Zach's work is equally impressive, fast, efficient, and executed with a level of precision that really stands out. During multiple recent projects, removing an old transfer switch and load panels and again another time a solar inverter relocation, the work was completed so seamlessly that I never noticed any disruption. Everything was handled professionally, from safely de-energizing the system to rerouting conduit and restoring full functionality. What truly sets this team apart is their attention to detail and respect for my needs and our space, they leave everything clean, organized, and meticulously finished. It's rare to find a contractor that combines technical expertise with this level of care and reliability. If you're looking for electrical work done right the first time, by competent and likable guys then Alpha Omega Electric is the only choice. read more

These guys were terrible. They did my house and it was a horrible experience. So much to list. Josh I'm not putting my info on here. You came out to fix a few things that your guys did. But there was a huge list of wrong doings. Stuff not to code, getting charged for circuits that were not done. Grounds not hooked up.... read more

We needed complete rewire, upgrade panels, install new lighting and a kitchen vent install to our historical home -- and we couldn't be more impressed with the work AOE has done for us. They treated the house with such care, making sure everything was updated safely while preserving its original charm. By using the attic and crawl space there were minimal wall damage. They were punctual, professional, and attentive to our needs. The work was top-notch, and they left the space spotless. It's rare to find a tradesperson this thoughtful and skilled. While not cheap, you will definitely get what you pay for and they offer financing. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone who truly respects your home and delivers excellent results. We'll absolutely be using them again! read more

We cannot speak highly enough of Alpha Omega Electric (AOE). From start to finish, their team was a model of professionalism, timeliness, transparency, and skill. What started as a stressful and expensive ordeal turned into a smooth and positive experience thanks to the incredible people at AOE. We were thrown a curveball when our home insurance company notified us they would be terminating our policy within 30 days because of the outdated and hazardous Zinsco electrical panel on our home. To make matters more frustrating, we had recently upgraded our sub-panel to a SPAN through another company, who neglected to mention the dangers of the existing Zinsco panel. After calling seven licensed electricians, all of whom quoted us a minimum six-month wait due to PG&E scheduling, we were beginning to panic. Then we spoke to Duncan, who runs the AOE office. Duncan is a breath of fresh air, calm, confident, communicative, and clear with a great sense of humor. He told us he could get the job done in six weeks. Incredibly, AOE completed everything in just five, saving our insurance and our peace of mind. Ryan Morrella is equally excellent. He came out for the initial estimate, patiently answered all our questions, and then went above and beyond when PG&E changed their requirements mid-process. At one point, PG&E insisted the new panel be installed in a location that would have required demoing most of our front exterior wall. Ryan handled the situation masterfully, working directly with PG&E, navigating their red tape, and ultimately saving us from having to deface the front of our home. That kind of customer service, advocacy and expertise is rare and so appreciated. Every single person we interacted with at AOE including one of their co-owners, Paul Huerta who checked in to see how the project was coming along, was friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful of our time and home. AOE communicated clearly throughout, showed up when they said they would, and delivered what they promised, all at a fair and transparent price. They gave honest, thoughtful advice every step of the way, never upselling or fear-mongering, just facts and solutions. In a world where finding reliable contractors can feel like a gamble, Alpha Omega Electric is the kind of company that restores your faith. Thanks to Duncan, Ryan, Paul and the entire AOE team, we not only kept our insurance but gained a trusted electrical partner for life. Highly, highly recommended. read more

Ryan M helped us with an electrical problem that turned out to be an issue with PG&E. He was friendly and efficient and went the extra mile of communicating with me about exactly what to tell PG&E. We still had some issues the following day and the team at AOE had Ryan out again that day helping us to resolve the problem. I will use Alpha Omega Electrical for all of my electrical needs. Highly recommend! read more

We hired AOE to help with the electrical work on our primary bath remodel, as well as a Master Panel upgrade and splitting the outlets circuit in our kitchen which kept tripping. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with their work. Paul did it estimate and managed and coordinated a lot of the work on-site -- he was very professional and responsive throughout. Zack was very professional and attentive with tracking our project and scheduling their part of the project to work with our and our GC schedule. There was a hiccup with the wrong location of one of the GFI outlets in the bathroom, but it turned out not to be a critical issue. We really liked that these guys are specialists in the Santa Cruz County area, and handled most of the required building inspections, coordination with PG&E, etc with minimal hassle for us. We would use them again and highly recommend them for any electrical projects. read more

Alpha Omega Electric - Electricians Near Me

TLDR: They come fast, but they don't listen. Quote included several things we did not ask for and fixing things that aren't broken. Pros: Scheduling was easy and they arrived early. They have many certified individuals on staff. The walk-through didn't take too long. The quote was done the same day. Cons: The guy generally didn't listen to us about what we wanted. We got the sense he was here to sell a list of standard actions for a bigger project and not to consider what actually needed to get done on this project. This guy acted like a know-it-all and gave us the impression the company would do what they were gonna do whether we like it or not. The quote came with services that we had explicitly said we didn't need. They added line items for altering the smoke detectors (not requested), work to do in hallways (there are no hallways), and taking out things we specifically said not to. They really did not listen. ****** UPDATE: We appreciate Josh reaching out in response. Yelp no longer has the feature where replies can be done in a comment underneath instead of in the post, so here is the requested info. (1) My partner's name was on the schedule. (2) In the first ten pages of Yelp listings for electricians in Santa Cruz, CA, there is only one "Alpha Omega Electric." The other Alpha Omega businesses on Yelp in the region are not focused on electrical. (3) The positive nature of the other reviews was indeed what prompted us to call in the first place. If other readers find that there is a shared understanding about the work to be done in their homes, then good for them. read more

We had a great experience with AOE. They came out and inspected a fixer-upper we bought recently, and we contracted with them to replace the old main panel and add a tie in for a generator since we are in a place prone to power outages. All our interactions were professional, and the work they did was high quality, and we passed county inspections without any issues whatsoever. It was very helpful to have them handle the permitting process with the county also. read more

Alpha Omega was communicative, efficient and thorough from initial contact to quote and completion of their work. I would highly recommend their work. Paul did a wonderful job! read more

The Gold Standard for professional service. In the course of our little project, I think we might have met everyone at AOE. They were, each, unfailingly helpful, considerate and friendly. There were a couple of blips along the way, but each was handled successfully, with concern. I was partiularly impressed with their coordinated service. All work to be done was hand-recorded and videoed so that the next person coming along could see exactly what needed to be done. Will use them again for any electrical needs. read more

We've had AOE out to our home a few times now. We've needed a few fixture installations in the last four years, and even a panel upgrade. Most recently, Ryan came out to look at several interior flickering lights. He arrived on time, quickly diagnosed the problem, and fixed it. He gave us excellent, courteous service, just like every other time we've used AOE. Highly recommended. read more

Our electrical panel blew up on a Friday of all days. The fire department and PGE were called. PGE had to cut power to the house. Due to AOE expedited service we were only out of power for two days. We were expecting at least a week. They came out that Saturday for the estimate and completed the job on Monday, permits and all. They were the most honest, professional, dependable, kind people in the trades I have had the pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them. read more

Great service. Commercial project. Knocked it out in a day. Did some custom work to get around walls and through doors. Installed breakers, fans, vents and wired it all as well. My go to for anything electrical. Thanks fellas. read more

Had an issue with our electrical panel/transfer switch which caused the power to go out across our whole house. Had a couple companies come out and they gave us the run around/didn't communicate properly. Ended up calling Alpha Omega and they were by far the best of the bunch. They (Paul) responded immediately and were super helpful/empathetic. Paul offered help over the phone/text and even mentioned that the other companies should've bypassed the switch in order to bring back power to the house. This happened during the holidays (Christmas through New Year's), but that didn't deter Paul from being responsive/offering to help. We are very appreciative of Alpha Omega and Paul and will definitely use them for any future work required. read more

The team at Alpha Omega was professional, compassionate, and dependable. We had an emergency electrical issue at our house that turned out to be a much larger project than we initially though it would be. Alpha Omega recognized that the situation was emergent, and moved their schedule around to accommodate our needs that day. They pulled permits with the City, communicated with PG&E, and got the job done! I highly recommend their services. read more

There are few things I like as much as genuinely agreeing with my husband. AOR gave me an opportunity to do so. My husband and I have been both - and independently so- impressed by Zach R. We had a tough issue to unravel and solve. Zach never gave up on the challenge at hand: he worked diligently and kept us abreast of his progress every step of the way. His professionalism, his communication skills and his ability to get the job done RIGHT and do so efficiently got to us to both agree that he is truly top notch! Totally recommended... by both of us! read more

I hired AOE to install an EV car charger in a garage. Zach was on time, very friendly and courteous, highly knowledgeable, and made some good suggestions that improved on the install that I had originally envisioned. I like competent people who aren't afraid to think! I'm very happy with the final result, and found it good value for the price. read more

Still 10 stars out of 5. Again, immediate response and automatic set up for an appointment. I got emails and text reminders the day before about who was coming and at what time window. I was able to get someone out quick to do an estimate with two different options and price points. Everything was explained in terms I could understand. Why I will continue to use AOE: Responsive, well-organized, clear/transparent pricing, the service techs come during the scheduled appointment window or give a heads up they are running late, they wear shoe coverings, clean and respect the property, and everything is done within the time frame agreed on. Four years later and still fantastic service and quality of work. This job was unrelated to the one they did four years ago. read more

Quoted $2000 for a LED light strip installation in our half bath. Included all materials and labor. Agreed to the price because of high ratings on Yelp and one prior electrician could not do the install properly. First time, they absolutely got everything wrong from color of LED to the problem with dark corners to not installing the diffuser tightly. Second time, got the color of LED right, but did a shoddy job on not fixing the dark corner problem. If only the technician had more time, he could have easily gotten the LED strip installed properly. Technician also left without installing diffusers even thought that is part of the job services. We are not paying them for the install and moving on. The job was straightforward: 1: Demo the existing strip lighting in the downstairs bathroom 2: Install new custom fit, "dot-less" strip LED lighting (6k bright white) 3: Install specialized 90 degree fittings in 4 locations to make sure there are no "dark spots" in the corners 4: Install diffusers on the existing rails for strip lighting Update: I have updated the rating because Josh did the honorable thing and did not charge us. Sometimes things don't work out, and that is something we all have to accept. How we treat each other after it happens is what matters at that point. Thank you Josh. read more

Called A&O because our generator transfer panel seemed to be out of order: only the fridge a a few can lights in the kitchen were working. Zach checked the voltage, found we were only getting half of what we should have and went to the generator, where I had flipped a switch, and that was the problem. It was my fault but I was glad. He was smart and considerate. I recommend them. read more

Extremely unhappy with the services, account was paid in and they called me 2 years later trying to collect. Not only very expansive and not useful the company have very poor customer service!!! Wasted hours of my time chasing invoices. The representative Jesse requested payment via Venmo and its really not my problem that the accounting system not recognizing it. that's what agreed upon! I requested the owner to call me and got the phone slammed. WHAT A BAD SERVICE! WILL NEVER USE THEM AND MAKE SURE THAT OTHERS WILL BE AWARE OF AS WELL! read more

I had three small jobs for Alpha Omega. They repaired my latch on my panel, added an outlet in my garage so I could install a garage door, and also updated an outdoor GFCI. Ian was super awesome, thorough in his work, and the results were very professional. Their rates are great too, and on estimate for the work performed. I will definitely use them again. read more

Alpha Omega was recommended to me by Rosenthal plumbing when they discovered a dead electric socket in my garage. Alpha immediately responded to check it out and nicely waived my $370 fee for their first visit as they were going to have to install a new dedicated circuit in my garage. Zach R. was the electrician and he was excellent. Explained in a way a lay person could understand what he recommended doing, was timely, friendly and very experienced and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this electric company and specially Zach R for their excellent work. Thanks, Peggy read more

Had an Electric Car charging station upgrade from level 1 to level 2 added to our parking spot. Dont remember who I interacted with or who installed the set up but they did a good job. It looks professional, clean and tidy. Think you! I waited to do the review because I reached out multiple times to ask questions about why it wasnt charging as fast as we hoped it would. It still charges as slow as it did prior to the upgrade. If I knew the upgrade wouldnt increase the efficiency. I would have saved my 650.00 .. But, all in all I am glad we got it. We have learned a lot about E cars. Its all still new to us. Thank you for the install and the station still works great. read more

Very refreshing to find a honest, generous company. Josh was very helpful. In the middle of a windy rain storm my tenant burned out the plug to the rv no hot water or electric for a few days trying to fix it. Josh asked for a picture, diagnosis it and was 100% correct. I didn't even have to make an appointment for them to come out. Very rare. I will be passing on the word . Thank you! read more

This company is very professional, very friendly, on time, their quality of work is amazing and I have used this company many, many times. I will continue to use this company. The gentleman on this crew are amazing and their coordinator/ manager Duncan is also amazing. read more

Had Alpha Omega Electric come to my mother's house in Campbell to install a light fixture in a skylight. From initial contact Duncan to estimator Chad to techs Jonah and Jonathan who did the installation, you will not find a more professional, polite and knowledgeable group of people anywhere. Work was done correctly, on time and for the exact price quoted. Could not be happier with the result. Competing businesses could learn from Alpha Omega Electric. John M. San Jose read more

They arrived on time and were incredibly prompt. They did an amazing job! We have three dogs and they were great with them as well! Highly recommend Josh and his team! read more

I had a evicted tenant use the breaker as the switch. I had no idea that can destroy the breaker. Warned her to take some of her toys off the circuit, to not cause a fire, and well, one of the many reasons I put my boot to her back side and off my homestead. Alpha Omega, love that name, came within 24 hours of the initial call, very pleasant, they looked at the breaker. Originally it was going to cost me 250 or whatever it was, but they did not charge me. Which worked good for me, as I was going to pass that on to the tenant, one less thing to fight about. I will be hiring when I put in a generator. And it was a hoot that we know the same people. I also like that he does animal rescue and volunteers in the community. That is special as so many are only about their own nests/ families. I like it and it appeals to me when people go the extra mile for the community and for all the animals this company saves. Thank you guys. read more
