Bay Area Electric

We got a free quote from Saul to fix some electrical issues in our home. It's a 1950s house, and the wiring in the garage was pretty messy--the gas furnace was tied into the ceiling lights, and the washing machine was connected to the upstairs outlets. We also asked Saul to properly rewire the furnace and to add a C wire so we could install a Nest thermostat. He explained everything clearly, including the possibility of needing to open up some drywall, but said he would try to keep any damage to a minimum. They did a fantastic job. Everything feels much safer now, and the work was done really cleanly. We're very happy with the results and will definitely call him again for future electrical work.

I coordinated with Saul to have 4 outlets grounded. Saul's partner arrived on time and was professional during the visit. They opened the outlet and found that the wiring was knob-and-tube, which meant replacing the four outlets with GFCIs was not an effective solution, so no work was performed. My main issue was with the billing and communication. Before scheduling, I was told that an estimate and diagnosis would be free. However, after determining that the work could not be completed as originally discussed, I was still charged $150 for the visit. I understand compensating someone for their time and travel. That said, I wish the diagnostic fee had been clearly communicated upfront, especially since the original message specifically mentioned a free diagnosis. The lack of clarity around pricing was frustrating.

This review is a bit late. Bit, I had hired this person sometime ago to replace a light fixture in my apartment and he failed to do it correctly and the light burnt out a few months later due to incorrect installation. He was also not prompt with the service having to reschedule without enough notice. I wouldn't recommend at all.

Highly recommend. Very professional, on time, and clean. Had problems with breaker. They came out, searched EXTENSIVELY for the problem, found and repaired. They did a great job. Good pricing. Would definitely use again if needed.

Saul and Daniel arrived a little earlier than promised and took care of the issue I had with a couple of lights in the garage. Price was fair and greatly appreciated!
