Best Fire Life Safety in San Francisco CA

Never showed up.... first time they said there was a work emergency, then he was going on vacation, so he was going to send one of his guys out. He scheduled another walkthrough and... he never showed up. I called and texted him to see what happened, he said he emailed me. Turns out they never had our email so lied about that, then even though confirmed via text and they never showed up he called me rude for being hesitant about rescheduling a third time. So I had to leave this review. Unfortunate.

Best electrical company in SF!

Chris Murtagh and Paganini Electric were professional, proactive, reliable, and effective throughout our office build out project during this most difficult time of the pandemic. Even with arduous safety protocols surrounding work during COVID, Chris and staff made the transition smoothly and were flexible throughout; offering candid suggestions for our best interests. The final product was superb and we've had no electrical issues nor do we expect any. Thank you, Chris, and team at Paganini. It was a pleasure working with you on our firm's new home and appreciate your thoughtfulness throughout the length of the project.

Tony and his team did my job under the quote given and on time.

Its always a little scary hiring people to do work on your house and putting so much trust into them. Honestly, this company was so prompt and responsive that it gave me a lot of confidence to work with them. The guys who came out were really friendly and knowledgable. We actually needed Comcast to come over afterward to help fix our internet and the Comcast guy said that he's seen some really bad electrical work in the past and that the job Momentum Electrical did was really well done. We had a great experience. We'll definitely be reaching out again in a couple weeks when we want to install our chandelier!

Fantastic! Very very helpful and knowledgeable.

Extremely unprofessional company. They lay off employees discreetly, without offering any severance package or notice period. My acquaintance was sacked within 2 hours, with no prior intimation or severance package. This company needs to be dragged to US Federal Court.

As a building engineer this has been my experience

Mike and his electricians are great. They get the work done right. Efficient and good communication.

Called them twice , got ignored totally .

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.
