    I recently ordered a Tesla, and I had no real life experience dealing with electricity. The only knowledge I had was through research online, but nothing compares to their experience with this line of work. I was astonished by the speed, the knowledge, the feedback, the cooperation, the friendliness, and the craftsmanship that Bill and Rob did for my house. Out of all of the other companies that I reached out for installation; they had the best installation plan, and the best experience. Bill knew what I wanted without me giving much information to him. I would definitely suggest them for installation of an EV charger.

    Mr Matthew's amazing electrical work

    I dont ever talk bad about a company. If anything, I try to give the same company business, but this guy, Bill Matthew, the owner, is by far the worst man i ever hired and would never recommend this company to anyone, he is good at talking to you to get your business and when it comes to doing the work, he does sloppy work and his worker he sends has no knowledge on what he is doing, not only did he fill my home stereo system with sheet rock dust. It wasn't even wired correctly. But when it comes to having Matthew come out and honor his work, the real him comes out, not only does he give you the run around that everything is OK even though you know it's not working, he will take over 6 month to finally come to your house and it still won't get done correctly, I also hired him to install a transfer switch which wasn't cheap, he didn't install it correctly and installed a box that wasn't even what I paid for and after I finally had to use it, it wasn't wired correctly and only half the lights work and when I called him about it he tried to give me the run around again but when I told him about the contract he send to me and we both agreed to, he was left with no choice but to come swap the boxes and I was home to make sure everything works correctly. Another incident was when he installed an outdoor outlet. When I had to use it, it did not work, I called him and again he gave me the everything is done correctly, but it took him like 7 month to come fix it and it wasn't until a few weeks ago I came home to my house smelling like burn electric and it had me worried and panicking but after further investigation I assume it was the interior outlet so I called him to ask him if it was related to the outlet he install and he said no and that he won't be coming out anymore to my house with out an appointment since hes been coming on his own expense, so I hired another electric company to come look and when he asked me if he can look at the outlet from the outside, I was shocked, it literally blown up and he told me I should call Matthew electric since he installed it and should honor his work, when I called Mr Matthew, he lost it, he said his work is only guaranteed for 1 year and he came out twice already on his own expense and while he was bashing on me, the electrician realize he wired it incorrectly not by code and when I told this to Mr Matthew, he called me a "cheap young man" and hung up the phone. I now wonder if all the work he's done in my house is even by code, or am I just waiting for something to catch on fire as well. I want to thank 1st Choice Electric Service for coming out and fixing matthews electric sloppy work, and I would recommend them for your electrical work needs.

    Bill and his assistant Rob were right on time, friendly, professional and respectful of our home. We hired them to install two new chandeliers. One in the entry way and one in our formal dining room. They had to move our dining room table to install a new chandelier. They moved the table and all chairs with care and made sure to put everything back when they were finished. They left our home with perfectly hung chandeliers. They took the old chandeliers and boxes of the new ones out to our garage for us. Everything was cleaned up and put back when they left. Very efficient and professional. Will definitely use them again!

    If I could give 10+ stars I would! Matthews electric is my go to with all electrical concerns for many years now. Bill is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, prompt and most importantly kind. His work is impeccable. We moved into a new home and he installed multiple lights for us. He made sure everything was perfect. I've never seen someone be so precise, you can tell he is very passionate about his work. He made sure the lights were all even, measured it multiple times and made sure I was happy with them. They look fantastic! Bill also mounted and installed multiple TV's for us and add additional wiring that was needed. We just purchased a Tesla and needed the charger installed ASAP and he came the next day and installed it for us! Just last week our oven stopped working and Bill answered the phone right away and was able to fix it the same day. He was on time and knew immediately what the issue was and was able to resolve it immediately! I refer everyone I know to Matthews electric, they are the best!

    I reached out to Matthew's Electric mid May 2021 to get a price on installing a 10 Circuit Transfer Switch. I decided to go with his company after interviewing several other companies. He arrived at my residence and installed TS Box in 2 Hours. We tested thumbs up. The quality of work outstanding, and they were priced right.

    Very professional. I love that he is training his sons in the electric services too. They did a great job.

My name is David and I had a terrible experience with this company. I was kept strung along for a year and a half I do not have one solar panel on my roof. It cost me probably $40,000. I was out now lied to about so many things that have come to light as a strong along month after month embarrassingly, the number is probably low. It's hard for me to look at the real facts of it all beyond the fact that I know I've been out and now played here. I even stuck up for these people when I heard some similar type of news in the very beginning of my experience with them because what they said was so believable, but it was all a lie. I would not trust this place. I would not recommend this place. I tell you right now the contractor hold no accountability without going all the way to the contractor state license board. I suggest if you've had a bad experience with these people that's exactly where you go and you write against their license. It's the only way it's gonna shut this person down from continuing to play people. I am a homeowner and Petaluma for the most part I'm disabled and so is my wife. And tell these people I've never written a review about anything I've never shared, especially as embarrassing as this is with anyone said something so embarrassing and taking advantage of, but they claim so much on the fact that they're local bashing all the big companies that by now I would've at least had solar, but it's all a bunch of smoke mirrors all they're trying to do is get your money. I imagine it's a fair amount of people they do legit business with, but I promise you that is not what has happened with me because I was too trusting because when the warning signs came up, I just ignored them and wanted to believe them and let us go on for about a year and a half. I'm so upset. It's hard to write very much right now. I'm trying to put it out there though and get it all together so I can really connect with people and understanding they do have a way of getting to you when you open the door to the idea of doing business with them.

From the very start it was obvious to me that he comes with a wealth of experience and is simply an honest, hard-working man. I didn't have a very big project (sub-panel replacement), but he was still the only electrician from Yelp who paid me the courtesy of visiting my house in person before bidding. He was always on time, always responsive to calls and texts, and was just a pleasure to work with overall. As we talked about many things while he was working on the project, I felt like we became good friends. It quickly became apparent to me that I was talking to a real professional, with tons of experience handling projects of scale incomparable to mine. I learned that over his 45 years in the industry, he was involved in very large projects in key roles, managed rewiring of hospitals, stadiums, thousands of amperes of power, he knows it all. That he simply got tired of the intensity of big business and decided to work for himself and for the regular folk like you and me. And his pricing is very reasonable, too. I'd say you're getting an amazing deal hiring Kelly, with his experience and expertise he could very easily make much, much more as an industrial electrician or manager, he is overqualified for the jobs he is taking on now. But it makes him happy. I would, without a doubt, hire Kelly again and I hope to maintain a long-term relationship with him.

Carlos was prompt, professional, explained what the problem was and did the job fast! He arrived at 8:56 AM and was out of our place at 9:28 AM. Things to note: they offer free estimates, but if you need troubleshooting like we did, the current rate is $200 the first hour and $100 per additional hour needed. If it's a simple fix like ours, you pay the troubleshooting cost plus any materials used. They were able to replace our breaker for us the same day as the scheduled diagnostic which was a great peace of mind for us. For more involved repairs, they provide an estimate before you give the okay to move forward. Their prices are more than fair for our area. Brittney's clear responses to my questions made me want to schedule with C. Bates Electric. I appreciated the transparency and professionalism. I reached out on Friday and they were able to get me in today (Tuesday morning). Tips: Pay with cash if you don't want or pay the misc fee - 4% Fee For Cards, ACH, Klarna, Cashapp, Or Venmo
