JP did an excellent job diagnosing a faulty breaker and replacing it over a holiday weekend so that we could get our dryer working again. I really appreciated his workmanship, honesty, and great service. He really helped us out in a pinch. read more

Was having issues with my thermostat not working. I called JP & he not only got back to me right away, he actually came out. He got it working again, but it was not heating properly. I called him back the next morning and he came back out that afternoon. Got it fixed & told me to call if I had any more issues. I want to note that I was getting sadly getting used to not even getting call backs when I've called for various services lately. I was so pleasantly surprised when JP not only called me back, but showed up when he said he would. He is very professional & knowledgeable + a real nice guy. If you need an electrictian, he's your guy. Pat G. read more

Amazing service!! Fast, efficient, knowledgeable and so kind!! We live in Truckee and he was able to accommodate us on short notice. So grateful. I highly recommend Prince Electric for any of your electrical needs! read more

Prince did a panel move for us a few years ago and when we had issues years later with the panel They came out and diagnosed for free! Def a reputable company to do this for a previous customer! read more

I asked my tenant to find a local electrician because the power went out in the bathroom. JP called me to get my approval to come out & give me an estimate for the work. I did OK it and I specifically told him please give me the estimates first before I approve the work to be done. He called me a short while later & said the problem is fixed. And when I asked him what was the problem he said GFI circuit was tripped. In other words there was no electrical problem. All it had to be done was to push a Red button to reset the circuit breaker. He went ahead and charged me $125 for fixing the so-called problem. He absolutely did not mention a word about upfront charges or minimum charge when he called to get authorization. I feel like I was cheated; had he made it clear to me that he would be charging me $125 just to come out I would have hired other contractors who give free estimates or I would have made other arrangements. He was not straightforward from the beginning and when I asked him why he did not tell me about upfront charges, he said it is not his responsibility to tell the customers and that it is customer's responsibility to ask. I would not recommend this guy, cuz he is not straightforward and honest. read more

Absolutely amazing service from JP. After seeing pictures of a damaged outlet in our house with a burnt socket he was able to replace what was needed to keep us safe. He was slammed with work and no appointments for weeks he was able to fit us in at the end of one of his days. read more

I can't say anything about his quality of work but has zero integrity. Promised to do work on a home in TAHOE Donner in escrow. We spoke on a Friday and said "no problem,I'll get it done on Monday . My realtor calls us on vacation and says he hasn't made contact with him as promised. I called him and he said "sorry can't do it". He has delayed an escrow by weeks now. Maybe falls out of escrow too. He didn't care. TAHOE/Truckee business mentality. "Thanks for Nothing Prince!" Zero stars if I could. read more

I have nothing but praise for JP for solving a mysterious electrical issue that we were having..... and making the 1/2 hr drive to reach us in snowy conditions...and, after putting in a full day of work! I watched him work methodically to detect the source of the fault which was hidden behind a bank of wall switches. I recommend his services most emphatically! read more

JP is always super easy to get a hold of. Does a pretty good job of getting tasks done on time. When we did have a communication error with timing of a project he was quick too get back to me and make a new reasonable plan to get things done. He was super helpful with all my annoying, new homeowner, DIYer BS. Plus the guys that work with him are very kind and did good work. read more

My kitchen lost power and I thought all my food was going to go bad but they came right away (after normal working hours) and fixed it. I'd recommend prince electric to anyone in Truckee! read more

I had no idea how much lighting could improve my home - JP had wonderful suggestions, and he and Michael worked hard and completed the job faster than expected. They also were quick to problem solve as things came up with the other work I was having done, and as a result, they made the entire process go smoothly with the other sub-contractors. JP claims he is not a "lighting designer" but I would disagree! :) I had no idea what to do with the lighting but his suggestions and advice were perfect. I will definitely use Prince Electric in the future and highly recommend them to others. read more

Prince electric took all my stress away when my applainces started to have problems turning on.....all at once!!! I had another electrician come "fix" the problem a few weeks earlier and did nothing!!! Prince Electric came in and fixed everything quickly and reaonably!!! I am so happy!!! I highly recommend them!! read more

JP did a ton of work on our home: installing thermostats, resolving problems, fixing lighting. He is a pleasure to work with; diligent, capable and funny. I would definitely use Prince Electric again! read more

This is the second tome we've had JP come to our place of business and do electrical work. Hes punctual, professional and knowledged. He returned our phone call punctually and showed up exactly when he told us. Highly recommend Prince electric, JP is a quality guy. read more

I called several Electrical Companies in The Truckee region and JP was the only one to 1) returned my call and 2) offered to come over to review what was needed. He honored the appoinment time, supplied an estimate timely and we got the tasks completed seamlessly! He has all the required insurance and is professional along with being friendly and down to earth. He fixed things quickyl that I had been putting off and made my life easier! I will use Prince Electric when ever electrical work is required.! read more

Called late on Friday, JP returned my call Monday morning and said he could be over at 1:30. He got here by 1 and was done less than an hour later. Everything worked. No fuss, no mess. Very quick and focused on the job at hand. read more

I hung up on this guy when he asked me, "Are you a licensed electrician?". What an a-hole.

Since my previous review, I've had more work done by JP including replacing and upgrading my breaker box and breakers, upgrading the electrical work in my garage to make it safe, and methodically searching for the source of a strange buzzing. JP is always upfront about the work being done as well as efficient in the way he accomplishes the task. He is respectful of my home and family. Both he and Chris are trustworthy and a joy to be around and joke with. There are plenty of contractors that will take the shortcut when they think you aren't paying attention. JP is not one of them. Thank you for all you've done for me and my family. read more

As an 1500 mile away out-of-state owner of a Condo at Northstar, we were struggling to get anyone to repond to some issues regarding a 20+ year old bath vent fan and wall mounted radiant heater. Found Prince Electric (JP) on this site and he agreed to go out and take a look. Was able to order parts to repair the fan and found the heater was a simple loose wire issue. JP responded timely, kept us informed via email/text messages of the project, and charged a very fair price for the two on site visits and the time to source the parts and install. Highly recommend JP and his firm. read more

Prince Electric was working next door @ my neighbor's house, went over to talk about my electrical problem and set up an appointment. He came right over after he was finished and fixed it. Right on the spot! Thank you for such prompt service. read more

JP answered my call for help with a dryer. He was in the area and came over within the hour. He checked my electrical box and then the dryer itself. Turns out, I bought the wrong dryer, i should have bought a gas dryer but he didn't comment. He just smiled, told me no charge for the visit and left. This is our vacation home and I wasn't familiar enough with what is here. Oh yeah - he did this while it was snowing! read more

We also had a great experience with Prince Electric. Prompt and reasonable. Fixed a problem that could have caused a house fire. Thank you! read more
