After an arduous journey to find the right electrician, and a horrible experience with another company, we found Mr. Electric. Our business has recessed lights on very high ceilings and we needed all of them replaced with LED lights. Our electricians kept us informed, were punctual, professional and the quality of their work was second to none. On top of that, they were priced reasonably! So grateful for the great work!

Mr. Electric was very easy to work with! They did the job considerably good, and answered all my concerns. I have had no problems with the installation. All in all, the procedure went perfectly and I will definitely be calling them back for whatever else I need help with.

Sam Van Nuland was the electrician and he installed a ceiling fan
in our bedroom and a new switch for the garbage disposal in the
kitchen. He also noticed some wires in the attic that needed to be boxed and he did that too. Sam was on time, intelligent and very
pleasant to have here--could not have been better. Jackie

Great service and meticulously done by Sam. I think he knows what he is doing. This is expensive though.

I needed to install new electric outlet in the backyard and I'm glad they neatly did this job, I needed an estimate for some other repair, they took some extra time to prepare all those and explained me in details, I'm very satisfied with the work, that's done. I'd definitely recommend this company

Mr. Electric of Palo Alto was great. They responded to my request very quickly. Samuel was fantastic. He was punctual, efficient, nice, knew exactly what he was doing, explained to me what I needed to know, and most importantly did a high quality job. He disabled an electrical outlet making it safe to cover with wood paneling, and he added an electrical outlet outside on our back patio. Great job.

i found them on thumbtack, got an initial estimate, which I thought was very reasonable compared to a lot of other electricians I had earlier taken a quote from; we did have to go through an adjustment in the price at a later time but it wasn't too bad.

work was good, they give 3 year warranty on their work. electricians know what they are doing and are respectful and professional. Owner of the business is reasonable too.

I needed to have a couple ceiling fans installed and tried calling an electrical company my park had used last year. Left a couple messages with no response. Began researching companies online and Mr. Electronic of Palo Alto had excellent reviews on Google, Yelp and Thumbtack. Gave them a call and actually got through to someone live. The quote I received seemed to be in line with reviews I had seen for the same service so decided to book with them. Was able to get an appointment a few days later. In between my appointment I called to inquire about electricity being turned off for the procedure. The dispatcher passed along my inquiry to the electrician, Jose, who called me back within 10 minutes. Jose and Juan showed up on time to install my fans and were very professional, respectful of my property, friendly and knew their work very well. They were able to complete the job within a few hours. I typically don't write reviews but the reviews very much helped me decide on Mr. Electric of Palo Alto and I have to agree with all the excellent reviews. Had such an amazing experience with all involved, the dispatcher, Jose and Juan and the person I initially spoke with when I first called (sorry, can't remember that name), I had to write a review for them. Thank you so very much!

The Owner, Tahir came out to my business in Downtown Los Altos, provided a quote to upgrade 18 ceiling fluorescent light fixtures (72 light tubes) to LED replacements. Tahir was professional and very polite, and provided a quote for the bulbs, installation and any components needing replacement. The quote was very reasonable and I placed the order for installation for 3 weeks later.

On the agreed date, Tahir's crew were on time and began working immediately. The light fixtures were 15 and 18 feet high, and required 14 ft. ladders. The work was completed on time and the 2 techs on the job even cleaned up after the work was completed. The design gallery now has the best lighting ever.

I can't speak for the other Mr. Electric locations, but the Mr. Electric of Palo Alto I can highly recommend. They are now my go to electric contractor, heads and tails above the others I have used. A fairly priced contractor who delivers what was promised.

We called Mr. Electric at 1:00 pm. Juan arrived at 1:30 pm. He was professional, polite, knowledgeable and performed a complimentary safety inspection check as well. There was a short circuit problem to the right side of the house, from the washing machine in the garage to all kitchen outlets, the dishwasher & the refrigerator. We tried fixing the circuit breaker ourselves before calling but nothing worked. To ensure we got service immediately, the schedule coordinator went out of her way to accommodate us by adjusting Juan’s schedule. We originally thought Juan would take 2 hours to fix the problem but upon closer examination, he fixed it in less than half hour. We were grateful. The employees of Mr. Electric of Palo Alto are honest & reliable.

Electrician investigated problem and let me know scope. He also recommended - but did not push - additional measures to protect the house. Great experience.

We had two main problems with our wiring. First was a electrical open some where in our wiring. This was a problem for 10+ years which we tried to fix many times but technicians were not able to find the problem. Half of the living room and garage outlets did not work. Sam was able to find where the open wire was, and replace it with new circuits. This he did by crawling under the house, in the attic, around the house. Finally found a burnt out wire which then he replaced into the panel.
Second, we had all our kitchen appliances on one circuit, refrigerator, microwave, toaster and all kitchen outlets. This caused circuit trip every time we turned two devices on at same time. This has been a problem for 20+ years. Sam fixed all this by adding 3 new circuits from the panel to kitchen. Separating refrigerator, microwave and splitting island into two. Now all devices can be one at the same time without tripping.
Everything was done professionally, Sam himself was very pleasant to deal with. Cost was very reasonable for amount of time he spent, which was 3 full days.
I would highly recommend this service.

I needed a new transfer switch for my house's back-up generator. The part was hard to find, but they were able to locate it and successfully install it for a reasonable price. They were very communicative, timely and professional throughout. They even responded quickly after-the-fact when I had trouble with my generator even though the issue was not their doing; they did not charge me for the follow up. Overall I had a very positive experience and would definitely use them again.

Tahir and his team listen to our outdoor power needs and came up with a very smart solution that minimized trenching and delivered power to our pergola lighting/outlets, our fountain, our landscape lighting & irrigation. Very thorough in determining the power load requirement & # of circuits. Also Tahir and his team were all super nice, helpful and very open. Highly recommend !! I like this company!

I called Mr. Electric to get a quote on work to be done at a home in Palo Alto. Evan and Juan were both very professional and thorough. They provided me with a quote that was clearly itemized and they explained the work to me in a way that made a lot of sense. I will work with them when the work needs to be done.

Mr. Electric of Palo Alto was very responsive to my queries. We discussed multiple aspects, like PGE panel and service upgrade, backup generator install and all the possible options were very clearly explained. I would definitely use them in future for electricals.

John was polite and professional, I had to change the location of the security lights and cameras and he accommodated the change and made a plan to install with the least amount of disruption. 1st class service, after he finished you would not know he had been the outside was spotless.

I used Mr Electric for 20 different types of electrical work on my new home and they did a fantastic job! You can trust Mr Electric ⚡️

Work was well done, although not exactly as initially discussed. Two new circuits were installed. These were supposed to be run from a subpanel to a box in the attic. Instead, they were run from the mail panel. An AFCI/GFCI breaker was supposed to be installed, but only an AFCI breaker was available.

Went fast and easy, bid was straight forward, and about half of the second bid I got. The work was fast and we'll executed, and I am quite happy with the result.
