He always does a first-rate job and is very efficient and professional. A couple of our projects were emergencies that required immediate attention and he moved a couple jobs around to accommodate our needs. What we especially like about Adam is that he always offers suggestions and options for handing our projects. Totally trustworthy.

I found Gould Electric on Yelp and thought, "Great, a local electrician."…read more I called Gould Electric to repair the wiring and dimmer on a chandelier that had fallen off its hook; the wire was ripped and the dimmer shorted. Adam, the son, fixed the wiring and installed a dimmer in about 10 minutes. The problem was he did not finish the job: he did not straighten out the chain and wire, and he installed a dimmer different from what I expected. On top of that he marked up his cost by 100% over retail, failed to give me an itemized invoice, and inserted "miscellaneous" as a charge. (When I asked him later what "miscellaneous" referred to, he couldn't tell me.) When I asked him to change out the dimmer to the style I originally had, he stated the local Ace Hardware did not carry the same dimmer. Then, he said he would charge for another service call and for another dimmer. When I asked him to take back the one he installed, he told me he couldn't because it was already faulty: he said it was overloaded and could not be returned. Why did he install it in the first place if it would be overloaded and dangerous?! This is his job, his integrity. I called him for his supposed expertise. He said I was "nitpicking" when I told him he did a poor job and left wires hanging. He's just a novice, and he obviously doesn't know how to, or care, to provide meaningful customer service. I called Bob, Adam's father, and complained; and he said he would make things right. "It's a family business after all: two generations!" He did nothing. Their family business claim means nothing at all. I talked to a neighbor afterwards who knows Bob Gould personally, and he told me, "They're nice people, but I would never trust them as electricians." Now, I have to fix what I paid Adam Gould to do. Hopefully, you'll avoid my mistake of calling Gould Electric. My neighbor suggested two other electricians in the area who are far superior. I wish I had asked him first. The one thing positive is, I can say that Gould was quick to do a shoddy job. I called at 930am and Adam Gould got the job done shoddily by 130pm. Now, I have to undo what he did.

These guys rocked, we really appreciate their quick response! We had an issue that caused our hot…read morewater heater to go out along with some other less important items. We were heading to a 5 day camping trip the following day and I really needed to start that off as clean and fresh as possible! I called Jones and they were able to make it out that very day!! That's a big deal since we live off Paradise Rd. In a bit of a no man's land. No other electricians even called me back. Andrew arrived exactly when estimated and he quickly found and fixed our issue. He came back a week later to complete an overall safety check of our cabin which really gave us piece of mind. I highly recommend them!

Reliable and Honest We are very satisfied with Ranch Hands…read moreConstruction quality of work. They began by repairing termite rot and damage to our 1909 craftsman home in Santa Barbara. The deck fascia, supporting beams and headers, all needed to be repaired or replaced. After several bids from various general contractors, Jean-Claude with RHC gave the most thorough and comprehensive bid. He took the time to explain and break down the process of each scope of work. The 5 scopes of work were then priced separately allowing us to decide according to our budget and needs. Although not the cheapest bid, it was worth getting the job done right. The Ranch Hands Construction crew were competent, prompt, hard working and respectful. Obviously RHC take pride in their work, going the extra mile and paying attention to details. It was refreshing to see camaraderie and teamwork amongst their coworkers. After their initial work, we hired Ranch Hands to reroof a backyard cottage, and rebuild the railings on our front deck. Again, we were very impressed with RHC work. The jobs were all within the original estimate, and the work was completed in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend RCH for most any construction job. It's difficult to find honesty, reliability and quality work. Thank you for the help.
