I recently experienced a complete power failure with my hardwired thermostat during a period of extreme, 95-degree heat. While we typically rely on a family friend for electrical work, his current unavailability forced us to look for a local professional. After reaching out to several businesses well past midnight, Gene was the only one to provide an immediate response. His promptness and willingness to engage outside of standard business hours were incredibly impressive. Despite my own scheduling challenges and a delay in my communication the following day, Gene remained remarkably patient and professional. Once we connected, he was able to accommodate an appointment quickly. Upon arrival, Gene was thorough and efficient. He systematically troubleshot the electrical panels and exterior AC connections. When the initial tests didn't reveal the source of the problem, he went above and beyond by inspecting the furnace in the attic. While I initially feared the issue might require a separate HVAC specialist, Gene identified and resolved the root cause himself. He took the time to explain the technical details, ensuring I understood the work being performed. It is rare to find a technician who is as honest as they are skilled. Gene is a true professional who clearly takes pride in his work and treats his clients with genuine care. I highly recommend Gene and Plug Electric to anyone seeking an experienced, trustworthy, and responsive electrician. I will certainly be referring him to my own network in the future. read more

We had an old outdated electric panel and our lights started flickering anytime the AC would turn on. We had someone come look at it and told us we needed a new panel in the next few years or so and also said the job was too big for him so he referred us to Gene which turned out great! He got us on schedule within 2 days and he informed us ahead of time about our power being out and for approximately how long so we were well prepared. He got the job done all in one day at a good price with great communication. Would definitely recommend to anyone for electrical needs! read more

Fantastic! I had Plug Electric changed out two old bathroom exhausted fans which required a lot of sawing and cutting the ceiling where the old fans were. It was a great experience dealing with the owner/electrician. He is super responsive. He arrived on time. Quoted a fair price and charged exactly what he quoted. Job looks great and he didn't leave a mess. I had some concerns about whether the old fans were exhausting properly to the outside of my house. He crawled through various tight crawl spaces to ensure they were. He went above and beyond. Highly recommended. read more

Gene was very responsive and had great communication throughout the entire process. He quickly troubleshot our issue and discovered it was with our main breaker which required SMUD to de-energize our line to the house. When SMUD does this they also require an official inspection after the work before they will re-energize our panel. Gene worked diligently late into the night on scheduling an emergency inspection for us, minimizing the time we were out of power. Highly recommend for anyone needing an electrician in the Sacramento area. We will definitely be giving him a call the next time we need electrical work done! read more

I found Gene based on a recommendation from another electrician whose schedule was too far booked out. I'd previously gotten a quote from Maverick Electric for $13K(!) to fix an issue with our pool equipment tripping the breakers. I was skeptical they were taking advantage of a woman with, admittedly, zero electrical knowledge. I decided I needed a second opinion. He spent HOURS meticulously isolating the issue and wrote an incredibly detailed report, in layman's terms, with pictures, etc. he even took videos on site, narrating the problem and proposed solution. He came out and spent two very long days working on it for a small fraction of what Maverick was going to charge. The kicker is that Maverick didn't even properly diagnose the problem so that $13K would have been totally wasted. Everything runs smoothly and we couldn't be happier. He's a super nice guy too. read more

Really great electrician. He not only provided the services I needed but helped fix some extra things, as well. I'm a health care professional and have a busy schedule and he was especially flexible around working with my schedule. Super honest and competent. His prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend him! I will continue to use him in the future without hesitation. read more
