I had a workman discover one room (built in the 40's) wasn't grounded. Got me worried. I called Brian who checked the outlets in other parts of my house and said it was only the one room that wasn't grounded. We had further discussion re: safety which was reassuring to me, and he didn't charge me!!! read more

Brian Nolf of Nolf Electric came to the site and sent an estimate the same day, which included several options. The work was then done according to my request. He also pointed out some issues with a previous electrical contractor, which, while I wasn't too happy, was very appreciative of having the information. All in all, a kind person and very knowledgeable. I felt the price was reasonable. read more

Amazing service! Prompt and professional. I'll definitely be using Brian again for my next electrical job

Brian is awesome! Good dude, good work, fair price. Done 5-6 jobs for me now. My new electrician for life!

Brian installed an EV charger charger for us. The experience was great. He was very understanding when the charger arrived a day later than scheduled and he simply let us move the appointment to the next business day. He was very responsive, the installation was quick and he even fixed an outlet that was not part of the EV charger installation for free. I'll definitely keep him in mind for any future electrical work. read more

Great communication and performed the job above and beyond expectations! Highly recommend.

Brian Nolf and I communicated via phone and text. He was quick to respond and professional. He was pleasant to work with in person, informative and efficient. Brian was on the higher end for prices, but this felt appropriate to me given his professionalism and high work quality. He also took a variety of payment methods and readily supplied me with his license number, business card, and other pertinent information. Brian kept his work area neat and discussed dust mitigation before installing a few ceiling fans and dimming wall switches. I will use Brian's services again for future projects. read more

Brian did the electrical installation for our sauna. He was prompt, professional, and trustworthy. I will be using him again for other projects. read more

How often do you find someone who does the work you requested (replacing two bathroom vent fans), then does added work (installing a new switch to one of the fans, installing a four-way light switch, and installing 3 GFCI outlets), spends time to discuss a potential hazard (Federal Pacific Stab-Lok electrical panel), and also gives advice about easy upgrades that can be DIY-ed? Probably not often. Even less often do you get all that for LESS than the originally quoted estimate to just replace the two bathroom vent fans. O, and Brian I talked to my contractor friend about the electrical panel and quoted price (because I like getting a second opinion from people I know) and his feedback was, "seems like a non-sleazy estimate". I'm paraphrasing. Yea, Brian's number is saved in my phone. read more

Brian is a very knowledgeable electrician and when he's finished, you can be sure your job is done correctly. He's there when he says he'll be there and leaves the job site neat and clean ... plus he's extremely trustworthy. We use Brian for all of our electrical needs. read more

I was charged an exorbitant amount of over $550 to replace two smoke detectors and check a fuse box. He complained that I used a credit card, too. This was an inordinate amount , and when other electricians came over to fix my fuse box,and I related that amount Brian charged, they said that was crazy. These same two electricians came from a reputable electrical company in Aptos and only charged me $89.00. They also called me for any follow up problems. This electrician who charged me $550 was a very nice man, but because I just came out of critical surgery and was bedridden, I felt like I was taken badly advantage of. His work did not justify this amount at all. I even called him later about this fuse box that did not work, and 'Brian' never returned my call when my fuse box failed, after he checked it out and said it was operating just fine. The other two electricians identified the problem immediately, with a very decent and fair bill. I really don't like leaving bad reviews, as this electrician was nice. However, the amount he charged me was just ridiculous, and I feel so badly taken advantage of. read more

Brian was absolutely awesome to work with. We were having cabinetry and shelving installed on both sides of our chimney and we needed 2 outlets to go above the cabinet top. He showed up at the time be said he'd come and got to work right away. While installing the outlets I inquired about recess lighting to light up the living room and gave me some good pointers on where to place them and what types of lights to use. I didn't think twice to hire him for this second job the following week. His prices are fair and we highly recommend him. The best part is that he is local. read more

Brian is not only a skilled, knowledgeable and professional electrician, he is a decent and likeable human being who has successfully completed several jobs for me. These included installing new breakers, new electrical lines and outlets and bringing the electrical system in my daughter's house up to code, in preparation for a return inspection after a previous electrician had done work that had failed inspection the first time around. Brian took it on and set it straight, at short notice. In addition, he has also been willing to chat on the phone and answer my questions, or visit my house to check things out and give me advice where I needed it. He will always be my go-to guy when I need electrical work done in the future. read more

Brian was awesome from start to finish. Responsive early in the morning. Came out the same day. Troubleshooted and remedied the problem. Communicated excellently. I will definitely use Brian on any future projects and highly recommend him for any electrical needs. Thanks much! read more

Awesome job!! Very professional! Brian and Hank showed up on time and stayed until the job was done. I had them install a ceiling fan in the living room, replace the ceiling fan 8n the dining room and change 2 hall fixtures. Big points for making sure to clean up after!! They answered all my questions and explained what they were doing to ensure the quality of the work. Pricing was very competitive! I'm happy to recommend this company to anyone looking for an electrician and will calling them again! read more

See all

Brian was a pleasure to work with. He installed a new circuit breaker box and added a generator plug. He communicated well (he turns his phone off when working on a job so text is the best communication). I was very pleased with the quality of his work and he had the power back on quickly. read more

It seems difficitult to get Aptos/Santa Cruz electricians to respond quickly. Brian, on the other hand, responded very quickly to my yelp request, came out the next day to give me a quote and, and took care of our issue. If and when I need electrical work done in the future I will happily work with him again. read more

Brian is the best! We have an old house with all sorts of strange and antiquated wiring. When a few of the sockets and our dishwasher stopped working recently, Brian worked tirelessly to figure out an epic electric puzzle. By the time he left, all was well. 5 stars for Brian and for Nolf Electric Services. A+++ read more

I installed a new hot tub and needed a new feeder line run to the subpanel, a new hot tub panel plus wiring. Brian is super knowledgeable, came up with practical and reasonable solutions to the challenges and got the job done. He also gave me advice on two other electrical jobs and was generally a pleasure to work with. Honest, clear, cuts straight to the point, will definitely be the first person I call when I next need electrical work, highly recommend. read more

Brian was great. He was very responsive and came the same day when I told him about my problem. Once I saw how great a job he did , I booked him for a larger job. He came back exactly when he said he would and did a great job installing new canned lights. I would highly recommend Brian. read more

Brian is absolutely awesome to work with. He's professional, an expert, and he's honest - he truly cares about giving customers the right answer/solution, not just the one where he can make the most money. He did our back-up generator set-up and it's been perfect while saving us thousands! VERY grateful to have this electrician helping us out :-) read more

Brian was my hero today! I had electrical issues that needed immediate attention, call Brian first thing this morning and he came a couple hours later and found and fixed the problem.

Hands down best and most friendly electrician in santa cruz county. 10/10 would reccomend

Can i give Brian 6 Stars? Had my panel upgraded to 200 Amp and installed a 240 Volt / 40 Amp Circuit with a 50 Amp Outlet for my JuiceBox EV charger in the garage. Brian was VERY responsive with communications and up front with expectations and gave recommendations / explanations to someone (me) who was really knew nothing about this type of install. We scheduled a month out. During this time he procured the parts, obtained the permit, and scheduled the time for PG&E & Inspector for the day of the install. Brian showed up on time and finished the work promptly. You can see the quality in his work and he's also a great guy to chat with! I just moved to Ben Lomond and feel lucky that I've already found an outstanding electrician!! Thanks again Brian!! read more

I made several calls and couldn't get an electrician to call me back...except for Brian. He was really busy, but still made the effort to come and look at the job a few days later. Due to the extensive work that was needed, he had to book me for the following month, but it was well worth the wait. Brian is punctual, professional, efficient, and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended! read more

Had a great experience with Brian. He installed a switch to connect my generator to my main panel. Friendly, professional... recommended.

Brian did a fantastic job on installing new lights in the bedrooms of my house. I had a great time working with him and I'm planning on coming back the next time I need electrical work done. read more

Brian was just excellent. He resonded quickly to a minor but scary electrical problem on a Saturday evening. He is professional, pleasant and really knows what he is doing. Thank you Brian! read more

Brian at NOLF inspired my first ever yelp review. His excellent work, professionalism, fair price, unpretentious demeanor, and generally constructive approach to making things work. It's been tempting for many years to add my voice to the cacophony of yelp opinion when it comes to things like restaurants, bookstores, etc; almost bit the apple many times... but then upon reflection, why, why add more mercury to the barometer charting the general human quagmire of unsolicited opinion? I confess I read it, though. But I've come to see things differently for local services. People who come to your house, like electricians, arborists, plumbers, contractors etc. At least it's easier to take a reviewer's actual impressions as having some real world gravity. The 5 star reviews you see here about Brian guided me to him and his company NOLF. And I must thank those reviewers for that. Boy were they right! The guy really is an ace. It's not easy to feel that unconflicted in this area, and in this day and age of regimented-entitlement and high-cost mediocrity. So I guess almost feel a responsibility to add my voice & say something out loud about one of the GOOD ones. So there it is! read more

I don't write reviews. So, this is a favor for the good service I received from Brian and in itself should express how pleased I was with his service. We bought a home and Brian was sent to us through the home warranty service to fix some electrical that needed attention. He was prompt, efficient, well humored and in a day where I had no less that four service guys out to repair or replace various issues with our new home, he stood out. The rest of the five star reviews are no BS, stop looking and use this guy. read more

Brian came by today and did a great job troubleshooting and fixing my lighting.(My previous electrician was great but he called back too late). He was nice, personable, and quick....Brian saved the day.Awesome! read more
