"Aldo came to the job site the next day after we spoke by phone. He sent a quote for the work later that same day. He completed the project (replacing 2 gas wall furnaces) in a single day and the heaters were working that night. He was prompt, reliable and easy to work with. I highly recommend him."

"In the past few years Iâ ve dealt with many licensed contractors (having flipped a house and had work on my residence). No owner and staff has communicated better, got the jobs â done rightâ , and charged so fairly. We had one hiccup where my scheduled time was rescheduled but during the busy holiday season that must be common. In any case, Edgar listened well, came out on time and had his team do excellent jobs for my numerous odds and ends. I recommend Golden Bay Electric as high a rating as I can"

"I had requested a discounted furnace tuneup and Mitchell, the technician, was very knowledgeable, answering all my questions clearly and doing the work quickly. What sold me on the annual Maintenance Plan was Livermore Service Champions' policy to include the "furnace tuneup" in the annual Maintenance Plan. Service Champions earns its Diamond Certification because their technicians are well trained and truly understand "Keep the customer happy!""

"Trio Heating and Air was an amazing company to work with! About a month ago I had Adrian come out and give me a quote on a new furnace for my home and he was so knowledgeable and easy to understand on what type of system I was needing for my home to lower my bill. We went with Trio and they scheduled the install to be done the very next day! Ever since then the furnace has been working so good they set the thermostat up just right I barely had to change it when it become cold outside. It was such an easy and fast process. I would defiantly recommend Trio Heating and Air for any for your heating and cooling needs!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesOakland Electricians are rated 4.8 out of 5 based on 326 reviews of 326 pros.
