We've used Hamblin Electric twice now, and both experiences have been excellent. They've installed recessed can lighting, added dimmers, set up a fan/light combo, and removed/replaced our outdated kitchen lighting. Each time, they were professional, punctual, insightful, and genuinely easy to work with for our electrical needs. We highly recommend them! read more

Brandon was punctual, professional, and friendly. Despite tricky obstructions, he completed a full pre-install survey, gathered materials quickly, and successfully installed three outlets. Highly recommended--will definitely hire again! read more

Hamblin Electric - Bathroom toilet bidet - Electricians Near Me

I highly recommend Hamblin Electric. We just purchased our home in the Danville area and the inspection report mentioned some plugs needed to be updated to bring up to code. I found Hamblin Electric and had a nice call with Josh who was able to set up a quick appointment. Noe came out to replace fix the plugs and noticed our plug under the sink was not installed properly. He made the fix to bring everything up to code quickly as we were having a dishwasher installed the next day. Overall I am happy with the work Noe completed and I'm glad I found an electrician I can trust. read more

Josh quickly responded to our panicked request for help connecting a new oven and range that would not work with the current electrical configuration (the salesperson and the guys who delivered the range were no help at all, and we had been without an oven for two weeks already). It turned out there were a few issues, but Josh troubleshot like the pro he is, and explained every step along the way. He understood that we were trying to avoid expensive options, as we were already over budget on the oven and he was clear about what we could do that was safe and effective, but didn't have to spend more than we were comfortable spending. We wouldn't hesitate to contact Hamblin Electric again. Highly recommend! read more

Josh came to reinstall a previously wrongly installed EV charger another company put in. He was very knowledgeable, easy to work with and got the job done. He is an expert electrician who explains each step in a clear, concise way. I highly recommend working with him! read more

Joshua came highly recommended by neighbors for whom he has done work. He came today and re-wired some GFI connections, making me feel very safe. He is professional and experienced. I would use him again. read more

We initially found Josh via Yelp to fix a minor (but urgent) breaker issue. He was quick to respond and came same day to fix the issue. He is extremely friendly and explains electrical issues in terms we could understand which helped us feel really comfortable with him. We recently had Josh come back and redo all of our outlets, our entire breaker box and install ceiling lighting in a few rooms and are so happy with his work! If you are looking for a friendly, knowledgeable and responsive electrician team, Hamblin is for you! read more

Wow! All of a sudden our pool equipment stopped working. i tried and our pool guy tried to figure it out. i explained the problem and joshua came out same day. he did his detective work and found the problem. although it was easy for him it stumped us. we hired him for his knowledge and he showed us he had it. thank you. all equipment is working again when we have electrical issues we will be calling Joshua again. read more

Hamblin is the type of contractor you hope for - frequent and prompt communication, takes notes and remembers details, delivers quality work on time, and follows up if needed. Can't recommend strongly enough. If I needed them more I would keep them a secret read more

It's a great experience a Yelp project turns out as well as could be expected. Josh is great at communication, and the fellows assigned to my project are consummate professionals. Contract work in the Bay Area sure is expensive, but this business/service is worth every penny. read more

I found Hamblin Electric on Yelp. Josh replied promptly and I requested quotes on a few different items that I have wanted to get done. There were quite a few, but prioritized installing 2 ceiling fans upstairs that had no existing wiring and 2 garage outlets. The quotes were reasonable and we were able to schedule an appointment within a week of the request. His lead Peter and his Apprentice Joey showed up promptly on the day of the appointment first thing in the morning. As the ceiling fans had no existing wiring there was a chance that quite a few holes may have been needed to run the wiring, but thankfully Peter and Joey were able to run the wires through to the requested areas via the attic access which was a tight space. They only needed to open about a 7" X 8" square of drywall aside from the holes needed to mount the fans for both rooms. For the garage outlets we just decided on conduits outside the drywall to the requested areas of the garage, which worked out well. Overall, I think they did a fantastic job. They kept things clean, performed high quality service, and completed everything relatively quickly considering the level of effort. I will reach out to Hamblin Electric for future electrical needs. Thanks Josh and team! read more

Good service. Located and corrected a difficult electrical issue and corrected it. Service man was very professional and friendly. read more

Josh Hamblin was very straightforward and easy to deal with. We discussed the work to be done over a video call, he gave me a quote and we agreed the price. Then he scheduled the visit (very soon afterwards) and came on time. Work was done very efficiently and to high quality. Josh cleaned up the work area afterwards and all is working well. This is what working with an electrician should be like every time read more

Josh is very professional and knowledgeable. He assessed the situation, made great suggestions, and completed the job. I am very happy with his work. Highly recommended! read more

Josh from Hamblin Electric came to our house today to replace a smoke alarm, fix a broken light switch in the laundry room, and check the circuit breaker box. He did all of those tasks, and even repaired a ceiling fan that hadn't worked in years. The service was prompt and professional, and for a reasonable rate. Highly recommended! read more

Josh Hamblin was so helpful for our house projects. He was very responsive and communicative, showed up right on time, and was very respectful in my home. He worked expertly and quickly and was transparent about his (reasonably) pricing. Couldn't ask for better! They will now be our go-tos for electrical work and more. read more

I met Josh (and his dog!) while sitting outside at Primos Pizza in Danville a while back. Turns out we had a mutual friend, got to chatting and I learned he was an electrician. I had some outlets in my daughters room that weren't working and initially called my handyman to try and figure it out. Hours spent and no resolution...to the point where my handyman gave up and told me to try someone else. I remembered that I had met Josh previously and reached out to him. He had his lead electrician, Peter, out to my house within a few days and he was not only able to diagnose a tricky problem (wires had been cut within the walls) but was able to get everything up and running without having to open up walls or make a mess. Cost was affordable and they did a great job. Highly recommend. read more

I lost most of the power in my house. A small amount trickled in. I called Hamblin Electric and described the problem to Josh. I thought that perhaps my main panel had gone bad (a 1964 house). He said that he could stop by but that it sounded like something that PG&E should check out first. I called PG&E and they were there within 2 hours. The repairman discovered a bad splice at the PG&E box and repaired it. Everything was fine. The repairman complimented Josh for recommending that I call PG&E before having Hamblin do a service call. Josh had said that I should first try to make sure that the problem was not with PG&E, rather than coming out and charging me for the visit only to have me then call PG&E. A big trust builder for me. read more

Josh was so nice! We had a last minute installation request and he was so responsive and accommodating! Planning to do more projects with the company. read more

This is a bit of a mixed review. Did the job get done? Yes Timely: Kinda Initial quoted cost in line with others: yes, a tad higher @ $500 Final bill was the same as quoted cost: NO - was billed @ $1100 Communicated about the bill prior: NO Friendly: yes I had 2 bathroom fans that needed replacing. The first quote from a place I contacted Jan 3 was $450, provided I purchased both fans (I did) but the work wouldn't be done until Feb 14. Joshua @ Hamblin said he could do for $500 as long as I purchased all the parts (the quote was given in a yelp message and via text) and would be done by Jan 28. I opted for Joshua. Hamblin changed out the first fan then were stumped by the second; they had never seen an exhaust fan like mine. They took the fan with them so I had this hole in my ceiling without the option of trying to purchase a replica. They wandered off and I couldn't reach them for about 3 weeks. They came back out on Feb 24 and installed the second fan. It all worked. The bill I was sent: $1100. That's over a 100% increase from both initial quotes. There was no prior conversation about a change in the cost estimate for the work, and I have no way to partially pay the bill. The other electrician was going to charge me less than the $450 but I didn't want to wait too long. Hamblin not only charged me much more, but took even longer than the $450 quote. I'd be extremely cautious working with these guys. They're new (didn't know how to change out one fan) and had follow-up/communication issues. read more

I just finished a Main Service Panel upgrade and added an EV Charging Circuit with Hamblin Electric. I wanted to work with a local business and interviewed several companies. Now that my project is over I am glad to say I made the right choice. The Hamblin electricians who did the work were courteous, professional and on time. I have some cosmetic work to get done where the old panel was installed but it already looks so much better than it did and I have a convenient charging station for my EV. Josh, the business owner, offered the most comprehensive estimate for my project than his competitors, and his preliminary job cost estimates were right on the money. He even advised me on other fees for the city permit and PGE services, so my total project costs were well within the original range he provided. One thing I did not think enough about when I was choosing a contractor, and I think this is very important, is the relationship the contractor has to have with the city and PG&E. I learned it's not just about the electrical work: It's also about project management and coordinating those other resources necessary for the project. I did know a bit about permits, but not all the inspections and certainly did not consider PG&E's role. During the project I had multiple inspections by the city and PG&E and they both commented on the quality and neatness of Hamblin's work. They commented, unsolicited, that I made a good choice when I chose Hamblin Electric as my electrical contractor. read more

Josh and his team are absolutely amazing! Over the past few months, I've worked with Hamblin Electric on a variety of projects from landscape and interior recessed lighting to smart camera installations. For every project, they have been punctual, efficient, thorough, clean and 100% focused on my happiness with the finished product. They check all the boxes for a company you'd want to work with. You're probably thinking, this all sounds great but they must be super expensive then?! No, in fact their quotes were always right in line with other companies. So choosing them is an absolute no brainer for any electrical job you can think of. I want to give a special shout out to Peter, who is the primary electrician we worked with for our project. Peter was exceptional to deal with. Between him and Josh, I felt completely confident that the work would be completed properly and in a timely manner, which it was. I'm glad to have found a company I can rely on for electrical work moving forward. After working with several different electricians over the years, I can confidently say Hamblin Electric is the best, hands down! read more

The team was very professional and the process was seamless from the time I reached out. Highly recommend their services!

At night, the circuit breaker for our master bedroom and office tripped, and I could not reset it. We lost our Wi-Fi and could not even watch TV. I called Josh in the early morning and explained what happened. He said that he could come to our home at the end of the day. I told him that I could not access my work on my computer and asked if he could come ASAP. He asked for a photo of the circuit breaker and was at our home in two hours. Within ten minutes, our electricity was back up. Josh was very friendly and professional. I highly recommend his company. read more

Hamblin Electric was contracted by our roofer to replace whole house fans for our condo building. Josh Hamblin dealt with us on the phone and via email and was very courteous and accommodating of our schedule. He gave us a fair price as well. Electrician Peter and his assistant Noe came today, for a 7 a.m. call, and were professional, friendly, courteous, and good communicators before, during, and after the job. They wore shoe covers since it rained this a.m., lay down drop cloths to catch any debris, and cleaned up after the installation. They were quick and efficient in all their tasks. Excellent, high-quality service and highly recommended. read more

Hamblin Electric - Whole house/attic fan in loft after installation. - Electricians Near Me

Josh did a nice clean job on a Tesla charger outlet. He had an opening in his schedule and it was done the next day.

i cant believe its been 15 years since i started writing these yelp reviews. its been an incredible journey since we used to host the yelp parties, organize the yelp bay to breakers, and rage like the overall hotmesses we used to be! i used to review things like the lunch at goldclub, when i had my ankle bracelet on. right now, i am writing a review on a high end electrician installing a $9,000 chandelier in a 7,000 sq ft house. life does get better. and you find better electricians as well. i made the mistake of taking my mom to restoration hardware to buy a new couch. we ended up with a much larger couch, a coffee table, a few odds and ends.... and a new giant 60" crystal chandelier. buying and receiving these items is one thing, now how do you install a giant chandelier in a grand room? first world problems, but here we go. not only are there height issues in this two story grand room, you also want to do the minimal amount of patching so the drywall doesn't look all odd and mismatched. Josh and his team was able to fish all the wires through cleanly where they basically was no patch work to be done. I have no idea how they did it but they did. and Josh's team were good folks. my staff sergeant 101st airborne, born and raised during the Korean War in Korea isn't the easiest person to deal with, but they took it in stride. Absolutely going to hire them for all these high end installs! read more

Hamblin Electric - Electricians Near Me

Josh is fantastic - prompt, courteous, knowledgeable, and - perhaps most importantly - had my best interest in mind. We had some wiring re-done last fall and the circuit to the AC kept tripping. I thought it was because of faulty wiring and Josh could have easily charged me a bunch to investigate and fix it, but instead he suggested getting a new circuit breaker and trying that first to see if it worked. He showed me how to replace it - for free - which I did, and now it works great. Josh will definitely be my go-to electrician for any needs I may have in the future. Thanks Josh! read more

Prompt, on time, and a fair price. Hamblin was just what I needed to help me get a project wrapped up.

Josh from Hamblin Electric was highly skilled and incredibly helpful. He was able to resolve a recurring electrical issue involving a GFCI outlet that I've had for years in just one call in a timely and professional manner. I will absolutely use Hamblin Electric in the future for any of my electrical needs. 5 Stars almost isn't enough for Josh at Hamlin Electric read more

I was in need of a good local electrician, I found them on google. I needed to new outlets installed. It was a simple process and a fair price by josh. The workmanship was very nice and clean. I would definitely use them again snd recommend them. read more

I found Josh through a guy at an electrical supply house. I got three bids for my work. His bid was right in line with the two others. I needed my service upgraded to 200amps to prep for solar. I had a good feeling about him because of his immediate response and not afraid to set a date with me. My feelings were correct. Not only did my install go smooth, I even had him upgrade the service on my Son's home. PG&E will delay the install a bit but even they were responsive through the project. Peter, his electrician with his helper are pros. They were timely (on time), neat, clean and kept me updated. Peter was a pro when using the 2" bender to bend the rigid pipe to meet PG&E requirements around our gas meter. The Concord city inspectors even appreciated the nice work. I'm glad I found Hamblin. Thanks Josh He's easy to text too! PS: I don't know why Yelp lists me as in SF, I'm in Concord read more

We have had Hamblin Electric do several projects for us including lighting, ceiling fans, and electrical repairs. Today was 2 small, but very important repair projects that many firms would likely turndown. The team was on-time and provided the same impeccable service they have on all other calls. Once again their employees were extremely pleasant, polite, efficient, professional and kept a very clean worksite. The owner is very responsive to requests, makes sure the work is done right and to your satisfaction. He has established a great company culture through his pleasant attitude, customer focus and quality work. We have referred him to many and he has done excellent work for both our sons as well. Finding reliable and quality contractors is always a challenge but you can be confident Hamblin Electric will deliver to your satisfaction. read more

We'd been looking for an electrician to replace and update the lighting in our kitchen for quite some time. Thank goodness we found Hamblin Electric. What a great experience. Josh came to our house (on time) and patiently listened to our vision. He discussed with us several lighting options and together we came up with a plan. The removal of our old outdated fluorescent fixers and the installation of our new energy efficient recessed lighting went smoother than expected and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. For those of you looking for an honest and professional electric company, I highly recommend calling Hamblin Electric. read more
