    A job well done!
    Zahri

    Amazing service! Jay arrived right at the beginning of the service period. After a very quick test, they were able to confirm that my breaker needed to be replaced. The whole process took less than 10 minutes! I will definitely be using them for all of my electrical needs. Thanks!

    Area below EV outlet

    You might want to consider someone else. Hired this company to add a 240V outlet for EV car charging port in garage, repair an exterior outlet and replace LED ceiling lights. Also had technician install a few dimmer switches. Selvin seemed capable and got the job done but there were a few issues that at the time I decided I could live with. For example, he cut into the drywall before realizing he cut in the wrong location, the replacement LED cans did not match the existing ones, the dimmer switches were also not a match and dust was left in the garage. He also recommended getting a whole house surge protector which was appreciated. I hired Oscar with Right Pro Electrical Services to install the surge protector and that's when I found out what I had paid for. Oscar informed me that the wiring by Jay Electric for the outlet for the car charging port was incorrect. The technician (not Selvin, his assistant) used THHN wiring which does not protect the electrical conduit causing the outlet to burn out in less than a week. Jay Electric offered to send out a master electrician to observe the issues and make repairs but I declined because I have zero faith in the company at this point and don't want to have to spend more money fixing their bad work. Shout out to Oscar with Right Pro Electrical for pointing out the costly errors made by Jay Electric. You should hire them instead.

    Attention to detail

    Elio came out and fixed a few GFCI outlets for us at a reasonable price and gave quotes for some other work.

    I have used Nextdoor Electric once for actual work and also obtained three quotes from them. My…read moreusual electrical company, Blue Electrical Contractors, was super busy so I decided to try Nextdoor based on their Yelp reviews. I had them take down an old outdoor ceiling fan from my back porch and install two new ceiling lights: one in the same spot as the ceiling fan and the other over the seating area to provide more light (see photo). The job cost $572 which I thought was a little bit high, but I wanted the work done. Two big issues with the job: First of all, the technician didn't install the round ceiling light insulation discs in each fixture (see photo) which is to my understanding required to meet Underwriters Laboratory requirements. (The insulation is used to reflect heat from incandescent bulbs.) He also cracked one of the plastic conduit hangers so that it was actually broke. I found the insulation thrown in the garbage and had to dig them back out and have the technician come back to put them in and replace the broken hanger. Also, wasn't really keen on the fact that he used plastic hangers vs. metal to hang the conduit. Another issue was that I wanted a multi-outlet switch in my garage changed out to a standard outlet; see photo. Nextdoor quoted me $187 to change it out. Caido, from Blue Electrical Contractors stopped by and I had him look at it. It was only a cover; Caido unscrewed one screw and the regular outlet was underneath. I could have done it had I known this. It took Caid 5 seconds to take the multi-outlet cover off and he didn't charge me a thing. Okay. This is ridiculous! $187??!! This shows me the technician from Nextdoor Electric didn't even know what he was quoting. I was speaking to Caido from Blue Electric about Nextdoor and how I will never use them again, but can't understand their great reviews. Caido was telling me that Nextdoor's reviews could be fake and/or purchased. I really am questioning these reviews. I will never have them do any work for me again. Go with Blue Electric the next time you need electrical work; I have used them for years.

Reaching out to this business was straight-forward, I emailed them and a kind woman called me by phone to setup an appointment. With any questions that she didn't know the answer to, she redirected me to email it so an electrician can better answer my question. I had my appointment scheduled and the gentleman, Doc, was assigned to perform the inspection. Doc arrived on-time, was detail oriented in his inspection, and was very patient to explain his findings and recommendations on what were a safety concern first, and what could be addressed later. He explained things over the phone thoroughly and explained his thought process and was open to any questions I had without being annoyed. Within a day, I received his inspection report, a quote for the project/repairs needed, and pictures of the inspection. He was also easy to reach by text. Doc was professional, courteous, and responsive. The cost of the inspection, I think, was a decent value. I highly recommend Veteran Electric to anyone seeking a safety electrical inspection and I hope I'm able to say the same about their quality of work when I hire them for electrical projects. Give this gentleman a raise.
