I have been remodeling a rental property and at every turn, there has been misc issues (mostly…read morebecause it's a turn of the century home). My handyman was struggling with the GFCI circuits in the kitchen and also the furnace was not powering up - and had an error code about polarity. I hired an HVAC company who told me I needed a new board or a new system (for the low low price of $7,000). I had an inkling the problem was maybe electrical, and decided a second opinion on the furnace was a good idea since the system was not THAT old and I needed to address the GFCI circuit anyways. So I went on Yelp and found Cal Paso. Alex was my tech. And he did an ace job! He troubleshooted the GFCI problem and came up with a great solution for our hundred year old home where *nothing* is standard size or ever easy. His solution worked and even made the property *better* for the tenants by giving them more outlets than before. Then he went to the attic and solved the furnace issue. And technically there were two minor wiring issues involved, and if you've ever troubleshooted anything, it can be hard to figure out what's wrong when there's more than one problem! But Alex did. I will absolutely, 110%, use Cal Paso again. They saved me from an HVAC company who couldn't troubleshoot at all and was going to gouge me with a new system. And they made everything BETTER than I expected, at a fair and reasonable rate.

I called on Aaron for the third time since 2022, this time to resolve an issue with a 220v outlet…read morein the laundry room that had no power. With the help of a handyman friend, Aaron initially tried to guide me through some basic troubleshooting steps over the phone, from checking the main breaker box to inspecting the outlet. Unfortunately, we couldn't resolve the issue that way. On Sunday, I reached out to Aaron via Yelp, and he responded promptly on Monday morning to confirm if we still needed his assistance. He scheduled a one-hour time slot for later that day. Although I wasn't home when Aaron texted around 3:15 PM to let me know he was on his way, I passed along the message, and he arrived as planned. He was able to diagnose and fix the issue in under 90 minutes. Once again, he mentioned that we should consider upgrading our breaker box, noting that the solar company who installed our system hadn't done the best job with their connections. Payment was seamless and convenient. Aaron sent an online invoice, and I used Zelle to settle the amount. The next day, I had a follow-up question about the breaker box and the solar company's work. Aaron responded quickly and offered to provide additional information if needed. I truly value Aaron's services--his expertise, efficiency, and professionalism make him a great choice for any electrical work. I'll continue to rely on him for all my future electrical needs. Highly recommend! Thanks, Aaron!

I called up Aaron on short notice and needed to upgrade an electrical outlet from 15A to 20A safely for some equipment I own. Spoiler Alert: He did a fantastic job, did it quick and came over on short notice. Timing happened to be good that day and he's a go getter. I love that work ethic. What I love even more was his work product, clean, safe, professional, able to answer any questions I had politely with a genuine knowledge and passion. Mr. Henson got the job done correctly, and I now have a reliable, well price electrician in my contacts that I can trust for electrical work on the central coast. Highly recommended.

Because we were over an hour away from where they're based, the company required a deposit before the work was done. We were a little hesitant at first, but we're so glad we went forward Marcos proved to be honest, professional, and trustworthy. While they were there, we asked if they could help with a few other electrical tasks we had been putting off. Marcos and his team were patient, and very accommodating. In addition to the flood lights, they also installed one Ring doorbell and two outlets. Marcos was especially friendly and social, which my grandma and aunts really appreciated. It made the whole experience comfortable and stress-free. We appreciated their professionalism, fair pricing, and quality work. We'll definitely be keeping Marcos and his team at Hernandez Electrical Company as our go-to electricians for any future electrical needs. Highly recommend!

Based on this experience, we'll be calling them again as the need arises. From initial contact through completion of work, they were thoughtful, attentive to detail, offered very clear communication and worked in a timely fashion. A human being answered the phone, which was a great first sign. She listened to our issue, asked for further details, and provided that information to the electrician who came out. We received e-mail and text from dispatch letting us know when Danny was on his way. It included a photo of him so we'd recognize him upon arrival (in case the clearly marked work truck didn't give it away). Upon arrival, Danny read back the information he'd received, which enabled us to move ahead with the project rather than spend time explaining it all over again. He located a third plug we hadn't even known had not only tripped, but melted down - plug, wiring, and on up into the wall. (We were lucky we didn't lose our house.) In short order, Danny had replaced all three GFCIs, replaced the burnt wiring and connected them in a manner which may be safer in future (no idea what original installer was thinking) and made suggestions at our request for some future upgrades to the system here. The work ran us more than a grand, which wasn't sweet, but we felt like we got professional work in a timely fashion.
