Green Concepts

The most professional company I’ve ever worked with. Monica and Derek were quick and straight to the point. My house has been having wiring issues for the past 2 years and electrician after electrician couldn’t fix it. Derek came out diagnosed the problem in 10 minutes and within a few days they were in an out, problem now finally gone!! I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Derek and team were so great to work with. Bid was very competitive and work done on 200A panel replacement with a few new breakers for new runs was done very quickly! Comms were super crisp and Derek was very flexible around working around some logistics challenges that cropped up. Would happily seek them out the next time I'm doing any major electrical work.

Found Green Concepts on Yelp. They were the cheapest quote by about $75 for installing a Tesla charger and were extremely organized and responsive.. Had availability the next day and took Derek about 2 hours to do the install. He even spent time to show me how to use my generator which came with the house. Highly recommended.

Green Concepts helped me replace the panel. They are very professional from estimation to make the work done. The owner is easy to communicate. It is a great pleasuring hiring Green Concepts. Fair price and high-quality work.

We were really happy with our experience. They quoted us a fair price to install some infrared panels. They installed them quickly and they are working great. Would highly recommend this service provider.

Derek and Monica have been great. Derek has worked on a couple different projects for me. Always been on-time, communicative, efficient, and willing to explain and help educate me on his work.

We contracted with Green Concepts LLC for a panel replacement and upgrade. They also included a installation of a generator plug as a Winter special at no extra cost.
Their work bid was very competitive, complete and honest. There was no attempt to sell something extra, nor were there any hidden / extra charges as was the case with some of the other bids.
Monica did the scheduling and handled all the billing, permits and inspection scheduling. This was done in a professional, complete and timely manner. Monica was very easy to deal with via e-mail or phone.
The work was scheduled within a reasonable and accommodating time. Work was completed as scheduled and passed inspection with a recommendation of “very well done”.
Derek was very professional, through and complete. He took the time to answer questions, make recommendation and give advice. Watching Derek work it was obvious he was not only a Master Electrician but a Master Craftsman as well. His first priority was customer satisfaction and pride in his work rather than high turnover and profit.
This is a local firm committed to the improvement of the community and the “Green” concept.
I would highly recommend this firm and will use them in the future.

I should have paid closer attention to the negative reviews on Google and Yelp. One of my neighbors had recommended this company for an outlet installation, so I went ahead and setup an appointment for yesterday morning, even though I saw the many “ghosting” reviews. Owner/electrician Derek never bothered showing up. I sent several texts and called him several times, but received absolutely no response. I wasted my time yesterday as well as the last month since the appointment was made close to a month ago and I could’ve found another electrician in the meantime.

The only positive was the scheduling coordinator/assistant Monica. She was cordial and responsive through her e-mails, but she doesn’t make up for the lack of professionalism of the owner. I would stay away from this company if you value your time.

Derek was a pleasure to work with. He showed up when he said he would and did an excellent job bringing power to our greenhouse. We will definitely contact him for future electrical work.

Had someone visit me a few months ago. Responded promptly for the initial visit and the technician was friendly. However, I still haven’t received a quote for their proposed work even after sending in a reminder email

I had a great experience working with Derek from Green Concepts, and would highly recommend him to others looking for a kind, honest, timely, and extremely capable electrician.

TL;DR:
Derek showed up on time and communicated well. He was a great partner in that he helped advise us on the options that were the best fit for us, without trying to oversell us, and without using complicated language to confuse us (which unfortunately many contractors do). He really understood our needs and delivered exactly what we were looking for in a quick, concise, and clean way. We will definitely hire him for future projects, and I would recommend that you hire him too. He also takes credit cards, which is a huge plus!

ESTIMATE:
Derek showed up within his estimated time window for my estimate, and even sent me a text with his ETA when he was on his way. I appreciated this as I was managing several other contractors that day so having realtime updates on when he could come by helped me plan out the afternoon. He listened carefully as we walked him through the house and gave good advice on how to solve the problems we had.

WORK:
Overall, we had him:
- Add 6 recess lights to an upstairs room with very tall ceilings
- Add 6 recess lights to a downstairs room with regular ceilings
- Add a central ceiling light to 2 bedrooms with no built-in lighting
- Remove a very sketchy self-done lighting arrangement in the kitchen that the previous owner had run, which resulted in more than one exposed hot wire
- Tidy up the electrics of a wall area that was patched

Derek was able to accommodate our busy schedules and the fact that we weren't living in the home at the time. He worked around my availability and came to me to pick up my key, and then drop it off again at the end. He did the work in the house in the time quoted, and cleaned up after himself at the end. He even left us the drywall plugs from where he had to cut into the wall to run wiring, so it was very easy to repair the wall, and now we can't even tell that work was ever done!

Derek's honesty was really apparent as well. We had discussed our lighting needs in the upstairs room with the tall ceiling and had originally decided to go with 4. During the install, he discovered that the 4 wouldn't be enough due to the angle of the ceiling and a beam. He spent a lot of time running all the possible options, and then called us, carefully explaining the pros and cons of the 4 lights, versus his new recommendation of 6 lights. It didn't feel like an upsell at all, but instead like he really took the time to think about the purpose of the lights in the space, and what exactly we were looking for. We ended up taking his suggestion, and the 6 lights are perfect!

Derek is also a very well put together contractor. During the renovation process of our home I met with many contractors in a variety of different fields, and Derek was definitely the most professional in mannerisms and appearance. He showed up dressed well, wasn't boisterous or obnoxious, and calmly listened to us while we talked through our goals for the home.

Diagnosed the problem, GFI plug had died and needed to be replaced. Worked quickly and fixed the issue. Our kitchen outlets are now working.
I had used this business before and will do so again.

Incredibly nice people. I had a problem and needed some help locating the source of the problem. When I called I was scheduled in fairly quickly and when Derek came out he was prompt and polite. He investigated the problem and actually located the source relatively quickly. He was very nice and helpful. The price was reasonable. I would definitely use Green Concepts for all of my electrical needs.

I can not say enough about this company and more specifically about Derrick Salazar. This was not an easy problem. Derrick came to my house and went after it. I am not an easy customer. He worked diligently and effectively until he was able to solve the problem at the source. He is professional, and most importantly skilled. If and when I remodel, I know who my electrician will be. Trust is everything to me. I trust this company, and particularly this individual. Thank you Derrick!

Ghosted. Estimate went well and we set a date for the work. Day of I was alerted there was an issue with the truck and they needed to reschedule. New date came and went with no show and no comment. Called, texted, emailed over the course of a week and no one replied to any of it.

Fast, friendly and fair prices. Derek came up with some solutions that hadn't even crossed my mind. Will be using their services again!

Derek came out and completed multiple installations. Each job was thourogh and quick. Would recommend

Excellent communication, on time, fair prices, pleasant to work with, good quality work.

They scheduled to come ad give me an estimate, they never showed up or answered their phone. Waste of time.

Made an appointment with them, confirmed by email. Took time off from work and waited. No call, no show. Very disappointing.

Got hot tub installed. Everything worked perfectly.
