I had a electrical issue, so I decided to give this guy a call (Dan). A) Compared to other local electricians, he charges at a higher rate. B) I asked if he was insured he said "NO". C) I asked if he could give me a more affordable rate because he was uninsured, he hung up on me! D) Horrible customer service! I would not hire this guy for work. read more

I picked Dan here off of Yelp, Called him late on a Saturday and he made it over the next day. Very knowledgable and and had good ideas. Dan did a L.E.D."s. remodel of a kitchen that had over head light box...nice recessed lights, clean work. Would recommend highly. Very personable guy. Nice to have a good electrician on your speed dial. read more

Dan and Valley West Electric really let me down. I called at approximately 10:45am on June 13th to inquire about getting an outlet installed in my garage for a garage door opener. Dan seemed slighlty rushed on the phone, however, he asked that I text him my address and he would be over to take a look at the job. Because Dan didn't mention he was running behind or had other jobs at the moment or that it would be a few hours, I was given the impression he was coming right over. Three hours plus later I text Dan letting him know I had to leave my home and he responded he was very sorry but he was being pulled in many different directions. I understand we all get busy and life happens, however, as a business owner and me being a potential customer, I would have expected a phone call letting me know he was running behind or wouldn't be able to make it out. At the moment I'm still without a garage outlet due to not having sufficient time late Saturday to call another electrician. The job will get done, I'm just disappointed in the service or lack thereof I received from Valley West Electric after reading so many good reviews. read more

Dan is nails. I'd been repeatedly flaked on by another electrician and decided to let Yelp figure it out for me; I called Dan up earlier this week based solely on his Yelp reputation. He was available within a day or two, his price was right, and even better - he figured out a way to do the work that ended up costing me less than half of his quoted price. He does great work and is the kind of person that you're happy to let into your home. read more

Charged a lot for the work done. Didn't do the one thing we needed him to do correctly. Tried to call him to get him to come back and correct his mistake. Never even bothered to call us back. Picked this guy based on Yelp reviews but was disappointed. read more

What an amazing team! They went above and beyond with our small remodel job at our restaurant. They worked with what hours we had which meant they worked WELL into the night and were back bright and early the following day. The area they worked on looks great and to top it off they were kind enough to mop and wipe down tables that had dust on them. They didn't have to but they did. I will recommend this company and ONLY this company to ANYONE I know who needs work done. Thanks guys you deserve more reviews than just these few! YOU ROCK!!!!!! read more

Dan is a REALLY nice guy and was able to come troubleshoot my issue very quickly. My problem was easy to solve but he double checked my panel just to be safe, and helped me with a couple other things while he was here. Really reasonable rates. Would definitely recommend and will use him again if *knock wood* I ever have electric issues in the future. read more

We contacted Dan to help us diagnose a problem that we'd been trying to fix ourselves for a few months. Turned out to be a simple fix that once identified was quickly remedied. He was fast and efficient, and we only had to pay for an hour service call. Very happy. read more

Dan is a good guy and a straight shooter. Took a bit of time to find the problem because we have a bigger house but when he did it was fixed instantly. Even though he had to spend some time searching, the price was still totally reasonable. Would definitely call again for some work we're planning on in the near future. Recommended read more

Had a great experience yesterday with Valley West. Dan called me back right away, and was able to stop by same day. He arrived right on time. Turns out both of my problems were quick fixes, saving me money and time. This company is very honest and I would trust them in the future to diagnose and repair any problem. Very professional and a pleasure to do business with. I will keep Dan's business card, and recommend him to my friends! read more

Needed a junction box installed above our garage for a security light we were installing. I called Dan and he was able to come over the next day. He showed up on time, did a good job, and his price was reasonable. Would definitely use him again in the future. read more

Called Valley West when another electrician stood me up. Dan came out within 2 hours of my call. He quickly determined that I didn't have the correct whole house fan for my attic space and recommended another brand. I ordered the new fan and it was installed a week later by Dan. Dan is professional, quick, courteous and does an outstanding job. Price was reasonable. Would definitely use him again and recommend his services to others. read more

I found Dan through Yelp by reading his reviews. I called him and made an appointment to look at my electrical issues. He came to my home and gave me an estimate. I gave him the job and it was promptly completed. The cost for the project was better than fair. I saved a good amount of money. Overall, the service was fast, friendly, and clean. I will be using Dan's services in the near future. Dan's services is Highly recommended. read more

Dan was prompt, helpful, and affordable in fixing a short that fed the ignition system for my on-demand water heater. He arrived the very same day of my call and crawled under the house to follow the electric line that led to the water heater - not a pretty job. He's a one man operation and so needed my help turning the circuit breaker on and off while he tested different leads. After isolating the location of the problem he returned the next day, back under the house, to fix the problem. I found him knowledgeable and persistent in finding and fixing the problem. I'd easily hire him again were I to have another problem. read more

I can't believe I waited so long to call an electrician. I called Dan and he was able to come over the same day. He found the problem and repaired it. The process was simple and painless. To top it off, the repair was significantly less expensive than I had anticipated. Dan is my electrician from now on. read more

I had an electrical problem in my home that I was selling. A couple of light switches would not turn on. After doing basic troubleshooting, I couldn't fix the problem so I called up Dan from Valley West Electric. I chose him based on his Yelp reviews. It was a Sunday in early January, and he claimed he would not charge me OT hours for coming out. I liked that so I asked him to come over and do the work. It turned out that the problem was loose wiring connected via wire nuts in the bathroom electrical box. The reason for the low rating is this: Dan took a lot of time walking around every room in my home and asking, "is there a problem in this room? what about this room? is there a problem in here?" Sounds great, but I already knew where the problem was and I told him exactly what the problem was. I showed him exactly which outlets and switches had the problem. But he didn't seem to care. He still kept walking around checking things that were working fine. And then about 45 minutes into the work, his phone rang and he answered. He talked on the phone for about 6 minutes while just standing there in my bathroom. All this would be perfectly acceptable, except for the fact that when he finally found and fixed the problem, we were 3 MINUTES (THREE MINUTES) past the first hour mark and he charged me for 2 hours of work because he passed the one hour by 3 minutes. This is why I am giving a low review and rating. Next time, please don't charge your customers for your phone call. Please don't charge customers for you looking at items that are functioning properly. I understand it might take time to look at a home's wiring and understand what's going on, but even me with my limited understanding of electrical know that working circuits more than likely have nothing to do with an nonworking circuit. And in this case, this was true. I feel if I had gone with someone else, they would have identified the problem quicker and have had the job completed under an hour. Two stars because he did fix the problem, but he over charged me. read more

A friend of mine recommended me to Valley West Electric, and Dan did such a good job I really wanted to leave my review. I needed two ceiling fans installed as well as a few dimmer switches. I called Dan and he answered immediately and was at my home within an hour. He was prompt, thorough, and completed the job like a craftsman. I was very impressed with his work and I highly recommend Dan if you are in need of any electrical jobs. read more

Finding a decent electrician can be surprisingly difficult. Finding one who's professional, prompt, and affordable is like winning the lottery. Dan at Valley West Electric did a fantastic job on a commercial project for me and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to friends and family. I agree completely with his other five star reviewers. read more

I called Dan after work hours on Friday night to discuss the installation of a new fan in my house. ( I had previously emailed him the specifics, and he answered promptly with a quote.) He was very accommodating and was here on Saturday morning. He arrived on time when he said he would, and had the fan installed within a couple of hours. He did a great job and his price was very reasonable. I would definitely use him again, and would highly recommend him. Thank you, Dan. read more

I must say this was one of the best business experiences I have encountered.

This company is amazing Dan came over right after I called found and fixed the problem in no time, if I ever have any other electrical problems or services needed I will definitely call this company. I highly recommend this company, the owner Dan is very knowledgeable and honest plus the cost is very reasonable. read more

Dan is really great. Not only will he give you us his time over the phone and honest information, but he will come out to you at his earliest opportunity.

He will inspect and test all the electrical for you and can also write a really easy to understand inspection write-up and estimate on his business letter-head so that you have something in front of you to look at or to send to somebody else, if need be.
