Our garage light was flickering so badly it resembled a seizure trigger. I didn't know who to call,…read moreso I searched Yelp and found Ian Marsh of South Bay Electric. There were a series of excellent reviews. I sent hima a message and he got back to me right away. When we spoke, Ian himself walked me through the troubleshooting over the phone. He suggested it could be a bad bulb connection (take it out and clean the contacts) or an issue with the wall switch. Sure enough, it turned out to be our dimmer switch -- it just couldn't hold the charge properly and was causing the constant flickering. What really stands out is that Ian could have easily scheduled a service call and charged me a couple hundred bucks to come out. Instead, he gave me the exact fix for free and saved me the hassle and expense. In a world where so many companies push for paid visits, this level of honesty and helpfulness is rare and genuinely appreciated. While it cost me nothing, it cost him his time.I As a result, I promised Ian I'd write a glowing review, and here it is. If you're in the South Bay and need an electrician you can actually trust, call Ian Marsh South Bay Electric. Highly recommend! Rick

The folks over at South Bay Electric Company have been awesome. I can tell Ian is super busy but he…read morehas been very helpful with discussing my particular issue over the phone and text. They helped me prolong the life of an outdated main panel, and I will definitely be using them to replace it soon. This is in contrast to another company that quoted me almost twice as much for a panel replacement and seemed to employ scare tactics to try to get me to sign. After the initial service, there was an issue that was arguably unrelated, but Ian promptly sent someone out to fix the issue without fuss because it had gone unnoticed during the first visit. I also have nothing but good things to say about the folks working under Ian. They were all easy-going and willing to spend the few extra minutes to answer my questions, so that I understood the problem and the solution. Happy I finally found my go-to electrician!

There's an open space between my panel…read moreand my garage, so I was told by other electricians that I'd have to get someone else to break the concrete because they don't do that. These guys were one of the few that could handle the concrete work, and they also handle all the permit work as well. Staff worked hard, finished everything quickly and made sure the work site was clean as a whistle after they finished. Everyone was really friendly, from the receptionist on the phone, the staff and the people giving me estimates. It's been more than a year since I got my EV charger installed, and I haven't noticed any problems since then. Price-wise, I feel it was pretty fair especially considering how they made everything so convenient. All in all, they did everything well. I'd have no problems recommending them to others, and will likely go back to them when I need other things addressed in the house.

Jeff answered the phone and said he could be at our house within 15 minutes. He came right over, went to the switch, fix the problem, cleaned up after himself and was out the door. Very professional, my husband says he had tons of experience and was very qualified. He noticed we had another issue on his way out and we're going to be calling him again. Never have I ever had somebody come so quickly and fix the problem in an instant. Fair pricing as well. Definitely recommend Jeff Moore to anybody that has an electrical issue.

So I bought a new ceiling fan and realized the installation included going in my rafters to mount it. At that point, I knew it was above my pay grade. I located Baumel Brothers on Yelp and Shane got back to me and we negotiated a fair price to have his team come out and install it for me. Casey and Joseph showed up on time and knew exactly what to do. I was prepared with drop clothes and a ladder for them. After one of them went in my rafters to set up the mounting kit, they installed my new fan and it works great with plenty of light. Casey and Joseph were respectful and knowledgeable. Working with Shane was a pleasure and now I have him giving me an estimate on converting Fluorescent Lights to Can Lights.
