Jose came out to review the projects and provided a reasonable estimate for the job within a couple of days. He is easy to reach and communicative. His team is professional, on time, respects your property, and really knows what they're doing. In regard to panel upgrade, it is a bit of a process applying to the city, obtaining permits, and inspection of the work done. It took about 6 weeks total, but Jose made the process easy.

If you're thinking about upgrading your electrical panel or getting an EV charger installed, seriously -- don't waste time calling around. I already did the legwork, and Alternating Power Electric, Inc. is the one to go with. Reliable, professional, and top-quality work. Highly recommend!

    I contacted several electricians in the area to get quotes for an EV outlet installation and T Bow…read moreElectric did not disappoint! This will be a detailed review, because I love those, but if you're looking for the TL;DR... - Amazingly competitive price - Extremely prompt service - Some of the cleanest work by a contractor I've ever seen - All within the (very, very fair) promised budget After chatting with 5 or 6 different electricians in the area, ranging from larger businesses to smaller shops, I can honestly say, these guys are the best and you should reach out for a quote! We recently purchased a 2024 Tesla Model 3 and knew we wanted to install an NEMA 14-50 outlet in our carport to charge our car. We also knew our house was not at all equipped for this since it was 30+ years old, and had an original sub-panel that, when we moved in, we were told would likely need to be replaced at some point due to a recall. Knowing this, we wanted to do our due diligence in picking an electrician familiar with the issue. We had 5 or 6 different electricians come out and give us quotes. Only a handful of them recognized the issue with the sub-panel (T Bow was one of them!) and, while they all provided a variety of crazy suggestions for how to get the outlet installed and power routed, T Bow's plan was simple, to the point, and the most straight forward despite our sub-panel being far from the carport, inside the upstairs hallway near our master bedroom. I reached out to T Bow via Yelp on a whim after a few other electricians had come out just hoping to find someone local and honest who wasn't going to run pipe all over the outside of our house. He replied instantly late at night and within 10 minutes, scheduled him to come out a day or so later to take a look. He arrived on time, and within 10 minutes, had evaluated the property, and provided a plan to upgrade the panel and install the outlet by running the line through the attic, down a wall, and through the garage -- a route no other electrician we had come out had suggested. His cost to upgrade the panel and install the outlet beat out others who weren't even planning on upgrading the panel. I was told there was a roughly two-week wait for work, but Jeremy was incredibly communicative and was able to come out that same week, arriving on time and doing the cleanest work I've ever seen. They managed to swap the panel with zero additional damage to the wall, and then cut only a small hole in the back of a closet to feed the wire down into the garage. Amazing work all around given the location of the sub-panel and the location of the outlet we were installing. They worked quickly too! In a single day, they swapped out our old sub-panel, ran the wire through our attic and down through our wall. Fed it into our garage, and installed the conduit in the garage with the wire to feed into the outlet inside the carport. Amazing work, super fast, and at a fair price. I don't know what more you could ask for and I'm pretty frugal! 10/10, will use them again in the future. :)

    Saved Our 60K-Light Christmas Tradition!…read more For 15 years, I have been the installer of our massive annual Christmas display--we're talking well over 60,000 lights that blanket the yard, trees, and house. We are not subtle! But this year, a new medical diagnosis and the subsequent treatment meant that, for the very first time, I couldn't safely get up on the roof to complete 1/3 of our light display. It was heartbreaking to think our display would be incomplete. I needed someone who could handle the complexity and perfectionism required to seamlessly integrate with a setup this size. Enter Willem D. and the team at Bee Merry Christmas Lights. From the moment I spoke with Willem, I knew I was dealing with a true professional who understood not just lighting, but customer care. He was empathetic about my situation and immediately reassured me that the tradition would continue. The execution was FLAWLESS. They installed the eves of our 2 story house, mutiple areas of the roof run lights (flat area of roof), and the face of our rounded "turret area" on the second story with precision that rivals my own. The lines are laser straight, the connection points are clean, and it will integrate perfectly with the rest of the lights and display that will cover the property. They handled the job efficiently, respectfully, and with incredible skill. Bee Merry Christmas Light Installation didn't just install lights; they saved a 15-year tradition and brought much-needed cheer back into what could've been a even more difficult season for my family. If you have a complex-massive job, a simple-easy job, or if you simply want the highest quality installation available, you must call Bee Merry Christmas Lights. They are truly excellent.

I emailed all the details and information over to try and have my issue solved. Initially, they tried to be helpful. Eventually, they stopped responding. I was promised updates and that they would look into the situation. Nothing. I would say this is an unreliable business.
