Best Home Additions in San Jose CA

Just wanted to say this company is so professional and was so easy to work with, I called about a switch outlet not working and they gave me a quick and easy solution! He was super friendly and identified the issue right away! Other places would take a long time and even over charge, but this company was humble and found the root cause efficiently. I would recommend this company to anyone.

Paul does a terrific job with everything he touches!

If you don't have an electrician that you trust, Altap should be your next call!! I normally dont trust the reviews here, but this one is real. Bahram is one of those guys that you dont feel like you are getting ripped off when you talk to him. He also really knows his stuff. Pricing is very fair for the amount of knowledge, experience, and the quality of work that you get. Do yourself a favor and save his number if you live in his service area. He is prompt, responsive, and very reliable.

He took care of an issue in my rental property promptly and followed up several times when I had a lingering issue which turned out to be PG&E's problem.

Henry and his technicians have been a great help solving some wiring issues with our home as well as installing new Ring security cameras and some outdoor lighting. They are very efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. I'll be using them for our rental properties in the South Bay and Peninsula.

Armando and his team are good guys and did great work!!! Due to storm damage, we had to replace the waterline from our well to the whole home water tank. Armando was quick to come out and assess the situation. The next day, his team installed about 200 feet of weatherproof cables to get power down to the well again. I'd use Alternative Power & Electric anytime!

Helped me back in 2018 :)

Henry was the lowest price we found compared (roughly $50-100/plug more for other contractors, also upgrading our panel was half as much as some other contractors!) to other diamond certified companies. Really easy to work with. He was patient and thorough in answering all of our dozens of questions. He was very responsive, even on nights and weekends. He made the whole process of upgrading our panel smooth, and gave us good recommendations and had a lot of knowledge and was not trying to sell us anything extra we did not need.

The work he did for us:
-grounded 20 outlets
-he gave us 2 extra dedicated circuits in the kitchen so it would not trip
-updated our light switches
-upgraded our panel from the 50's from 100 amps to a 200 amp SquareD panel
-got permits for all the electric work and panel upgrade
-helped worked with PG&E with upgrading the panel and moving our wiring on top of our home since we used to have a pool in the backyard and we no longer needed to go on the side of the house, so to save on wiring as well as not having to run wire on top of our roof to the panel we moved the wiring to go directly to the panel
-told us the ceiling fans and lights the previous owner installed were too much weight and recommended us not to use the fans anymore as it could fall in the future, thanks Henry!
-helped make things safer in our garage as some wires were hanging and not stapled in or an electric box was just hanging by its wire
-He recommended and coordinated a great stucco contractor to patch around our larger panel and other holes that were necessary for the electrical work.
-He identified potentially dangerous wiring in our master bedroom bathroom, educated us on it, and asked if we wanted him to inspect it; for peace of mind, we chose to have him inspect it.
-He recommended and coordinated for us a great drywall contractor to fix the various small openings in the interior wall need to do the electrical work, as well as fix and seal old cracks we had in the ceiling and wall heater gaps we had removed with another contractor.

We would recommend Henry to anyone needing electrical work.
