Best Automation Lighting in San Francisco CA

Harry and Alex have gone above and beyond with their work. They are great at communicating when and where they will show up, what type of work they have been doing, and what you need to do going forward for maintenance if necessary. When I say they went above and beyond, I mean that my housemate accidentally blew a fuse on New Year's Day, and Harry and Alex were at the house within 15 minutes to identify the issue and fix it, and we haven't had any issues since then. It was incredible. They also handled a potential headache with the permitting office and got everything done quickly and with minimum work on my end. I love their professionalism and will be happy to hire them again.

I had a 240volt outlet installed by Trevor and Lamont. Upon their arrival they did a general walkthrough of my property sharing their recommendations in where I should focus efforts in the future for general electric work. It was very much appreciated and there was no pressure in trying to upsell me at all. I appreciated this a lot. In the end, I now know what I need to budget for in the future, and who to call.

You can count on Spark Smith Electric to provide a great and professional service and a your locally trusted electrician.

Sergio & his team do phenomenal work and have been regular electrical contractors for both our HOA and for my extended family. He was able to scope and deliver a very complex EV charger project involving splicing new subpanel for all units in our building and then wiring each parking spot to be EV ready. His team completed all of the work extremely efficiently, pulled permits and coordinated inspections, and delivered the full project on a quick timeline and within budget. He also helped to repair our aging heating elements and wired our new appliance system. I would highly recommend Sergio and his team for any electrician project - they are the best!

New piedmont house with electrical issues. Called several electrical contractors and had several WIDE ranging bids for the work which left us unsure how to proceed.... seemed like some just wanted to sell us things we don't need. Called Nathan and he was able to explain our options and MORE IMPORTANT, was able to provide us with alternative solutions that fit our needs and budget after the home purchase. Honest, reliable and very pleasant. HIGHLY recommend!!

Super responsive and easy to work with. Len and his team are pros. Have used him several times and he has my highest recommendation!!!

Lights Out totally upgraded my condo! They installed new recessed cans in my bedroom, upgraded my kitchen lights to LED, installed new pendant lights over my countertop, installed a fan in my living room, and put in upgraded outlet covers. It all looks great and takes my condo from looking cookie cutter to having it's own personality. They made great suggestions on how to set up my lighting for the best look and feel of the condo, were very clean and friendly, and the price was reasonable for all the work I had done. Highly recommended!

McMillan Electric is difficult to work with, and ultimately they pulled out of the project before it even started due to their own internally imposed constraints.

We had reached out to them to do electrical work in our apartment, following a recommendation from our building management since they had worked with them in the past. They agreed to do the work and took our deposit to get a permit with the city (which they returned at the end when they pulled out).

Communication was sparse; it was hard to get traction for getting a proposal together. Even when a proposal was sent, they had actually sent us a different client's filled out proposal incorrectly.

When talking to them verbally, professionalism and customer service was lacking. Their tone was passive aggressive and made it feel like they were inconveniencing themselves by doing us a favor, rather than trying to serve us as a client who matters.

Originally, they agreed over the phone that they would also cut into the sheetrock in ceiling. In the middle of pushing the proposal through to our building management, they reversed their decision causing us to need to coordinate with yet another contractor to do this work. Moreover, McMillan Electric told us that the other contractor would have to be onsite at the same time and work in parallel with them. This made the job that much more of a logistical nightmare.

Our building requires that work be done no earlier than 9am, which is a reasonable request to not disturb neighbors. McMillan Electric refused to move forward claiming that their union requires work to start at 8am. Instead of figuring out the logistics on their own end, they moved this burden onto us as a client. They told us it was on us to change the rules of the building. They ended up blaming us by saying that they normally don't do residential units and only took this on as a sign of goodwill. Somehow, they were able to follow our building's rules previously but couldn't do so now.

Ultimately, it has been a colossal waste of time where we could have just gone with a different electrician who would have been more professional. We wasted two months of back and forth with them. Would not recommend them.
