We had an emergency with our electrical system one day. I contacted a few electricians including…read moreGreenelectric (Andres). He was the only one that was a) available and b) didn't charge a diagnostic fee. The problem was actually fixed by PG&E before Andres arrived, but the fix was just temporary. When he came to check things out, he was very friendly and easy to chat with. He was also helpful and not condescending at all. To be frank, those traits have not been common in our interaction with other electricians. Andres ended up upgrading our electrical panel and installing an EV charger in our detached garage. His work was done quite efficiently and all seems to be working well. He also handled the permits with the city of Oakland and P'G&E. Definitely recommend Greenelectric!

Jaime did a great job installing our Tesla Wall Charger on-base at Travis AFB back in August 2022…read more(it's running great!). He offered to come out and conduct a good quote after seeing the job request. I'm no electrician, but he was honest about options (and cost) for various size conduit based on my requested charging rate. He also made sure that met code and wouldn't overload our breaker box. Bottomline? If you're looking for a solid electrician (esp. for an EV charger install), look no further than Jaime!

He would not allow me to finish explaining what my scenario is and ultimately hung up on me and left me a snippy text with of course, the requisite passive-aggressive "Don't bother. I will not be doing any work for you and have a nice day." This guy has his own little kingdom. More and more of us are discovering we don't need to serve.

Won't even come look at it. I vehemently do not recommend these folks. Once they've got your cash, there is no service for or pride in their work. They're a high-priced discount service.

My Yelp search ultimately led me to Tracy (Trace) Roberts at Electric Empire, whom I hired for a…read moreproject that I had long imagined doing with the help of a qualified professional. Over a period of three days, Trace and his assistant proceeded to make child's play of an upgrade that most electricians might have declined given the number of special features I was seeking (whole house surge suppression, dedicated lines, noise suppression, ground conditioners and more). While I had reached out to other good people and received quotes from several companies, only Trace took the time to research the specialty items on my list and to follow up with many good suggestions. When all was complete, my project sailed through inspection with the City of Benicia and the low noise results we achieved in my home confirmed my decision to go with the highly competitive quote I received from Electric Empire. All in all, my experience with Trace was one of professionalism and excellence (from the drywall openings and panel workmanship to the communication and invoicing). During this time, I got to know Trace as an accomplished electrician and good guy. If he says your special project can be done, you can have faith that it will happen, and exactly as he explains. Therefore, Electric Empire and Trace the man, receive my highest recommendation for integrity and workmanship! By the way, the panel upgrade itself was completed in just one day and power was restored with not a hiccup or glitch to follow. Needless to say, I'm a happy customer and will trust Electric Empire for future electrical needs in my home.
