Called Grover to fix some switches. They were on time and really nice. Did a great job. Would recommend these guys

I would definitely recommend Rick from Grover Electric. Rick is very professional and his fees are competitive and reasonable. I needed an outlet installed for my kiln - I had an order to fill - and thanks to Rick's quick response and beautiful work, my pottery has been fired and is ready to pack and ship. I asked Rick for an estimate for installing overhead fixtures, he gave me a great price, but he also talked with me about ways to lower our electric bill by switching out lights ourselves. He wasn't trying to sell me on anything other than a little elbow grease and savings. We even talked for a few minutes about parenting and how important it is for our kids to enjoy their passions without being pushed too hard and stressed out. Rick is a great guy and a fantastic electrician. I hope you'll give him a call. read more

I had Grover Electric come out to fix a problem with my circuit breaker. Over the phone they said the service call would be free. When they arrived they charged me $250 and said the "free" only applied if they did repairs (they would discount the fee from the total cost). They also said the repairs would cost $1800. Feeling uncomfortable with all this, I chose not to have them repair anything. I later had a friend recommend someone else who indicated the repairs Grover Electric was proposing were unnecessary and overpriced. I would not recommend using these people. If you do, be VERY careful. read more

Rick was outstanding! I am helping my mom get her house ready to sell and Rick was VERY professional, came over, took a look at the electricial issues, and gave me some wonderful advice. If you are looking for a real pro, call Rick! read more

I highly recommend Ric of Grover Electric. Great electrician. Does a great job. Nice guy. Comes when he says he will. Calls ahead to let you know exact time of arrival. Friendly. Knows his "stuff". I will definitely hire him again. I have another project, and he will be the one to do it. I found Ric of Grover Electric through reading Yelp reviews, so I wanted to share my experience. First I hired Grover Electric to replace a lighting fixture at a rental condo I just bought, and also asked him to install two other ceilIng fixtures (in closets), where previous fixtures had been capped off. One required additional work because the right wires were not under the capped area. He did not charge extra for that. He was fast and efficient in getting those fixtures installed and they work great. Then I hired Ric of Grover Electric to do much more extensive work. I am moving the location of my washer and dryer and because they are "Little Giants", the commercial grade appliances made by Miele, the dryer needed a step down transformer to convert 240V house current to 208 V current. Ric had to run two 240 V lines from the breaker box to the new laundry room, then he had to wire the transformer so it would do what we needed it to do. He had to install the correct, special European outlets that will accomodate the German-made washer and dryer plugs . He had to run the wire from the ceiling of the laundry room, down through the wall, then bring the wire through to the inside at washer height. All the work was very cleanly done and finished, in the correct location. He showed me with a volt meter that my new outlets are delivering the correct voltage that my new European appliances require. Ric also installed a new front door light fixture, a new back door light fixture, a new bathroom light fixture, and he switched an on-off light switch with a dimmer switch. I am so relieved to find an electrician that I can call when I need something done. After having bad experiences with othet electricians, it is a pleasure to have a "good guy" that I know will do the job when he says he will, and do it right. read more

I cannot say enough about Rick and Grover Electric! We had a near disaster when PG&E cut off our power due to a temporary patch made by who knows who (PG&E?) years ago at our power box. We had a short time window to get if fixed while the power was off while the company did other repairs to the grid. We called numerous companies with poor response, but when my husband contacted Grover Electric, Rick was out within the hour. He even ran to Home Depot to get the special bolts needed for the repair. We could have been without power for days or weeks while a contractor coordinated with PG&E to turn off the power for the repair. Thank goodness for Rick! He is an angel....great attitude, professional, and fast. We now have our power back when we were planning on having to throw everything out of the refrigerator. From now on, there is only one electrician we will call....Grover Electric. Thank you SO much, Rick! read more

If you want a good and honest electrician in the area, Rick is the man to go to. I was about to spend over $200 for a job that was not necessary. What I wanted was to have a shop light come on with my already installed bulbs in the ceiling of my garage. I thought I needed to add another outlet. Instead, Rick told me a much more easier and cost effective way. After speaking with Rick, I just needed to pick up an adapter at Home Depot for a few bucks to accomplish what needed to be done. Rick was honest enough to share this with me. If I ever do need to have some real electrical work done, I'll know who to call. Thanks Rick! read more

Ric is a top notch professional. Extremely courteous, prompt, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I wouldn't think twice about hiring him again! read more

I could not be happier with the service I've gotten from Ric at Grover Electric. After having had a less-than-satisfactory experience with my previous electrician, I was on the quest to find somebody reliable and trustworthy. I called a few other electricians and nobody called me back--seriously, how are some of these people in business?! I then called Ric and he--amazingly--picked up the phone! He came by that same day to give me an estimate for moving a couple light switches, installing cabinet lighting, and some lights in the closet. The price was fantastic and he took care of the job immediately. Ric is professional and does stellar work at a great value. He is on time, reliable, and has the highest integrity of anybody I've met in his industry. I wholeheartedly recommend him and will call on him and him alone whenever I need servicing in the future. read more

Our furnace went out ... when it was cold (of course). Called our furnace installation person and he couldn't figure out what was going wrong. Then called Rick at Grover Electric (we'd done some previous work with him) and he rapidly responded and work with us to get the furnace working. Thank you Rick!! He texted us when he was coming and clearly communicated with us during the entire process. We highly recommend him for your electrical work! read more

Rick was a yelp find. He's thorough, professional and a hoot, personality wise. He's quick & neat - he comes in, does his task and leaves nary a trace , except for the improvement he just did to your house. I wouldn't hesitate to call whenever we have something we need fixing, hung or new! read more

Saturday: called Rick outta desperation cause I needed a special circuit breaker for my darken house. He said he doesn't sell parts and was service only. Then spent 10 minutes on phone telling me where to to find and how to install this breaker. Very helpful and professional. read more

Super helpfull called back the same day after hours. Helped solve the problem offered to not even charge. But just carried about solving the problem thank you read more

Just had Rick from Grover Electric rewire a light switch to handle my Belkin WEMO wireless light switch.. Rick did the job for a reasonable price. He was very professional and showed up at the appointed time. I highly recommend Grover Electric. I tried to contact other electricians prior to Grover Electric and they did not return calls or recommended that I call other companies. I used Yelp to find Grover and I am very happy I did. read more

I had an oven that stopped working and the oven guy told me it was because it didn't have 220v going to it. Rick sent his guy Pepe over to troubleshoot. After a lot of checking lines and plugs, Pepe proved to my satisfaction that it wasn't an electrical issue. He said no charge since he didn't find an issue for me to pay for. Not only was he fair and honest, he had me laughing the whole time he was there. I felt confident from the way he explained things that he really knew his stuff, so I will certainly call Grover the next time I have electrical needs. If any of my friends need an electrician, I would recommend them. read more

Rick just installed 4 recessed lights in our downstairs bedroom and replaced 3 additional existing bullet style recessed lights in our living room. He was reasonably priced, quoted my estimate over the phone and was able to fit me in within a week. He texted to keep me posted on his arrival time and installed the new lights without leaving any holes in my downstairs ceiling. His work is top notch and he was very careful to cover everything and not leave any mess. I wish all contractors were this reliable and skilled, I highly recommend and will be calling him again for all things electric! read more

We contacted Grover Electric for a laundry-list of electrical items we need done around the house and back yard. They sent out Pepe to take a look and we walked him through everything. He was nice enough and seemed knowledgeable, gave us a few suggestions. We followed up with an email to put our list of specific items in writing and asked for an itemized quote. The itemization was important to us because some of the items towards the bottom of our list are just "nice-to-haves", we would have them done if they're not that expensive to do, but otherwise we would pass and just focus on the most important items. After a few follow-up emails and phone calls asking where is our quote, we finally received one (their reason for the delay in getting back to us had something to do with Pepe having some family in town...still not quite sure what that was about). Anyway, they just gave us one lump sum quote, nothing was broken out. It was more expensive than we were expecting, and we thanked them for the quote and again repeated our request to have it itemized so we could determine which ones we felt were still worth it to more forward with. It's been a couple weeks now, we've never heard back from them, and I'm guessing we never will. Perhaps they have so much business we are not important and they don't need ours. read more

Be very careful of this guy. His state contractor's license is under suspension. He scammed us for couple hundred dollars claiming he replaced several electrical items to solve a problem. Found out later that replacing those items is not necessary. He did not give us the items that he said he replaced. read more

i had a couple of electricians come out to give me a quote on replacing my undercabinet lights. Ric's price was much lower than any of them, and he was very straightforward and transparent about the materials he was going use and how he arrived at a price. Plus, he advised me on a lighting problem i'd been annoyed by for years, and so my problem was solved for $0. Very easy to work with . thanks Ric! read more

Ric has now worked on two projects for us and we have been very happy with both. He is knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and really cool. Both times he has made suggestions for how to do the job for less and with better results, meaning more usability. I highly recommend him and his work. read more

Pepe is awesome! Our office was completely out of power along with one outlet in out kitchen and Pepe was able to fix the issue without having to tear out of walls. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. So glad we found our go to guy now for any electrical problems! Give them a call and you won't be disappointed!! read more

Called Rick to come and fix my breaker, he checked and found nothing wrong other than the fact that I forgot to reset my GFCI (embarrassing!). He gave me a few tips on how to prevent my appliances from tripping the breaker. He told me he wasn't going to charge me for the visit, even if it was on a Saturday afternoon. I offered to pay but he refused! Rick is a real stand-up guy. Based on our discussion and the tips he provided, I believe he's a very knowledgeable and trustworthy electrician. read more

I had some outlets and lights that were not working at my rental and I called Rick. After he came out to assess the problem, he clearly discussed a path forward so I understood what to expect - both in time and money. I was impressed with how thorough and fair he was. I had a similar issue in my home and called Rick. Again, he discussed what he would be doing and the expected costs up front. He fixed the issue both times within the minimum time. He will even try to talk you through a fix on the phone so he's definitely not out to gouge anyone. Very refreshing. read more

I had installed a switch and it was blowing a breaker. I couldn't figure it out. So, on a Sunday, I called Grover Electric. An hour later Ric called me. I explained to him about the switch. He then instructed me on what to do and how to do it. He solved my problem over the phone! I told him that I owed him. He said, just go on Yelp and put in a good word for me and we'll call it even. What a class act. If I could give more than five stars, I would. I highly recommend Grover Electric. read more

We needed a bathroom fan replaced so went to yelp and called 4 electricians. Left VM with 2, 1 answered however on vacation and the 4th answered And scheduled us in for the next day. What an excellent experience! He went right to work. Removed the old fan,and replaced it after modifying the drywall so it would fit. Quick, efficient, knowledgeable and all around fair and honest man. I highly recommend rick and will seek him out if we ever need any electrical work done in the future. read more

I called Grover Electric on a Monday and they were out here by Tuesday. We had a fairly simple project, but one that required someone with the right tools and expertise so that it got done right. Outside GFI switch ultimately was the culprit, but we determined that one of the outlets that hadn't worked was due to an "in-wall" problem. The rest of the problem was solved after replacing the GFI. Rich also provided guidance on rip and replacing our existing can lighting with the new and improved LED lights. He showed up in the timeframe he provided and finished up quickly. read more

Rick lives up to his many Yelp reviews. Fairly priced, quality work and if you ask provides reccomendations based on style, cost and functionality. Above and beyond all that he is prompt, communicates well on scheduling, timing and cost. I just moved to the area and have found my go to electrician! read more

The power in half of my house went out Sunday morning and again Monday night. Reset the main breaker Sunday, but it did not work when I tried Monday. Called some electricians on Tuesday who said they could get me an appointment next Monday. Called Grover Electric and they came the same day as promised, within a few hours. They determined right away that the problem was with a bad PG&E cable. They were so very friendly and efficient, and did not even charge me for their time. I will definitely call them in the future if any electrical problems arise. (PG&E was able to come the same day and fixed the problem). read more

Not responsive. After waiting three days without power to most of my house, I finally called someone else who had the situation fixed within a couple of hours. Despite what these guys have on their website and marketing fluff, they do not handle emergencies well. If you have an emergency or critical issue, do yourself a favor and call someone else. read more

I called Rick with an electrical problem. He answered right away and scheduled my appt. He was very helpful and gave me peace of mind. I ended up not needing him because it was a PG&E issue. But I was so grateful Rick was available in case we did need him. read more

I called Grover Electric mainly because of all of the positive reviews on Yelp. The reviews were spot on!!! Called because our gate to our property wasn't working even though electricity seemed to be working. Rick sent "his guy" out to help us within the hour!!!! "His guy" Pepe will now be our forever 'go-to' electrician! I can't say enough about Pepe and his persistence to diagnose our problem and fix it while he was at our house. Most electricians or plumbers I have experienced would have giving up on this challenge. Pepe credits himself as being a 'problem solver' when it comes to issues like we had. He is not only a problem solver but he is professional, personable, honest, and determined to complete what he started. After almost exhausting all possible options, he decided to search an area between our main house and the area where the electricity had failed to fully connect. He found a wire sticking out of our hillside that was invisible to me, dug a hole around it and found that the main wires had been eroded away and finally split in half. He repaired the wires which restored power and fixed our gate. Pepe pointed out many areas on our property that had electric boxes that were not water-tight or other areas that needed updating. I will definitely have him back to spend time to fix all of the other much needed repairs and upgrades to keep us safer for the future. I wish all repair technicians had Pepe's integrity and professionalism. I'd give him 10 stars!! read more

I was having trouble with my home outlets - "hot ground reverse." Basically I had a hot neutral wire which is very bad. Rick came by today and helped trouble shoot the issue. He found the outlet that had the bad connection and solved the problem. He was knowledgeable, honest and charged a fair price. I know have my go-to electrician for all future needs! read more

Couldn't be happier with Rick. Quick response to Yelp's request for quote, fits you into schedule within a day or so, is on time, and does great work! We've had him here twice, once for troubleshooting, once to install The Ring doorbell. He's friendly, works fast and is now my go-to guy for all things electrical. read more

Very pleased with Grover Electric's service and expertise. Rick was approachable, very responsive and dealt with our issue with minimal downtime. Highly recommend! read more

I had some contractor work coming up which need one of my two breaker boxes turned off. I wasn't sure whether this would work with a new solar system installed a couple years ago, so I went out and flipped one of the two main breakers off. This shut off the box I needed to be shut off, but when I tried to turn it back on, nothing happened. The solar company and PG&E both told me it was not their equipment, but the PG&E guy was kind enough to tell me that all I needed was a new main breaker....the one I had was 35 years old original equipment. The first electrical "emergency" company I called at 1:30 in the afternoon, wanted $775 to show up and diagnose the problem, plus the cost of the repair. The second was Rick Grover. He answered himself. He said he was on his way to Home Dumpo and to text him a photo of the breaker which I did. He picked up the part, showed up about 4:30 and installed the part in about five minutes. Total cost....$345.....less than half what the other guys were going to charge to show up. From there, he went on to check some other work that I had done mysel. We spent another 30 minutes to do that and compare notes on the wisdom of solar systems....no additional charge. I can only say good things. read more

I do most of my own home repair. I don't do my own electrical work. If I mess up on a Drywall job no one gets hurt. If I mess up on electrical people can die. Get someone that's skilled, licensed and insured. Ric and his guys know what they're doing. The prices are fair, you are paying for years of knowledge and skill. There are three things in construction that you have to be aware of, quality, time and price. One always effects the other. Ric keeps a close eye on all three for his customers. Using Ric for your electrical needs is a wise decision. Be Safe! read more

I called Grover this morning because all the outlets in my bedroom stopped working yesterday. I spoke to Rick who advised me to try a quick home fix. Unfortunately that did not work so he said he would make it work to send someone today. sure enough within 2 hours Pepe was at my door in all his glorious professionalism! He quickly diagnosed and then fixed the problem, as well as made some adjustments to some of the wiring in the outlets. I am so impressed with this company. Their level of customer service as well as their efficient work easily earn them 5 stars. I would now only call Grover for all my electrical needs. read more

I chose this company per the great Yelp reviews and I'm glad that I did. Rick is very professional and friendly. Great experience. Highly recommended. read more

We recently called Grover Electric to repair a problem with a breaker in our 35 year old home in San Ramon. We talked with Ric and were met with courtesy, concern and promptness. Ric came to our home and soon identified the problem and talked with us about what needed to be done. We found him to be knowledgeable and very serious about providing excellent service at a reasonable cost. As people who have been homeowners for 37 years, we have no hesitation in recommending Grover Electric to others. We will be calling Ric again for projects we'd like to do around our home, and, of course, for any problems that may come up in the future. A refreshing experience and great service received! read more

Was very happy with the service we got from Rick when he came out to do some emergency electrical repairs for our house. From the time I spoke to him in the morning to set up an appointment, to the on time service and repairs he provided, we have nothing but great things to say about him. He was helpful explaining all that needed to be done, and had job done in a timely fashion to our satisfaction. Would highly recommend his company for any electrical work needed. read more
