Electrica

Great work! Electrica employee was on time, super friendly, and really knew their stuff. They fixed the problem fast and made sure to clean up everything before they left. I highly recommend them and will definitely be calling them again for any future electrical work!

I had an incredible experience with Electrica. I called Nick for a quote Monday morning and he came out the same day, and they were able to start work on Wednesday. Incredibly kind crew who did exemplary work. Can't recommend more highly!

Nick answered my call within minutes. Needed rewiring done to get our ac working. He had me send pics of areas of work to be done and scheduled service the following morning at 9:30am. Andrew did a great job and was very thorough. Will use Electrica for any future electrical needs.

Great people to work with. They done a very clean job. They installed Level 2 Tesla charger to my house and they done an excellent job. I’m very happy with how it looks and their service speed and responsiveness. They also got my permit from the city.

We just moved into a new home and was looking into possibly upgrading our electric panel and Nick came by to take a look at everything. He was very knowledgeable and explained our situation and possible options. We’re holding off on upgrading that for now but he helped install our Tesla Charger and cleaned up a couple things with our panel to make sure we wouldn’t short our house. Appreciate how responsive, easy to communicate he is and open to explaining things in a simple way.

Nick was outstanding and very professional in the job he did for us: installing a 240V electrical outlet behind out stove, which was dual-fuel (gas top, electric oven) and had been hard-wired for the electrical--we never knew why. It was a difficult job because he had to cut into the studs behind the wall in order to be able to extend the electrical connection to the new outlet. Once done, he brought 2 different connection cables for the new stove just in case the installers did not have the correct ones. When they did, he took back the one he had sold me and quickly reimbursed the expense. All in all, we are very satisfied and have already provided a friend who needs electrical work his phone number.

I couldn't be happier with Electrica's service! From start to finish, they were outstanding. Nick installed a Level 2 EV charger (Tesla Universal) in our garage for ultimate charging flexibility, and since I have other high-powered appliances, they also set up a load balancer to ensure everything runs smoothly. Nick is incredibly knowledgeable, answered all my questions patiently, and the installation was clean, professional, and top notch. I highly recommend Electrica Inc. to anyone looking for top-notch EV charger installation in the San Jose area. Thanks again Nick!!

Nick installed an ev charger in our garage. He quickly gave me a great quote and scheduled a time for install. He was organized and diligent with installation. He tested everything after install to ensure that it was working correctly. I work in the design build industry and it is very rare to meet other industry professionals like Nick who are organized and care about the final result. Will definitely use him again for other projects and I highly recommend his services.

Electrica installed an EV charger. Did a great job. They re-worked the main panel a bit to accommodate the breaker, cleanly/neatly ran metal conduit to the front of the house and installed a smaller breaker box and the charger inside the garage. They responded quickly to my request for quote, reviewed the job to be done and gave me a fair quote. Andy showed up on time and efficiently got the work done. I am very satisfied with the installation.

Overall, I had a great experience with Electrica. Pricing for installation falls in the middle of the pack. Electrica wasn't the most expensive quote I received, but it also wasn't the cheapest. Andrew came out to install my Tesla Universal Charger, and the installation went smoothly. The charger works very well. I initially had some issues connecting the charger to my Tesla app, but Andrew came back to help me get it set up and working properly. One thing to note: A return visit for customer support or diagnostics do incur an extra charge, even if it's related to a recent installation. Just something to keep in mind.

Nick at electrical is a professional and stand up guy. I contacted him about a thorny issue with rare intermittent breaker tripping. He sent one of his staff who suggested replacing the old breaker, but wasn't sure it would solve the issue. The breaker unfortunately tripped again, so the cause is still unknown, and may require many days of diagnosis, that I'm not sure I could afford at this time. Nick refunded the entire cost of the diagnostic visit and breaker replacement, without me having even requested it. While Electrica's rate are not the lowest, this may be a case of getting what you pay for, and I will definitely consider Electrica for future jobs.

I was very satisfied with the work Electrica did for me. I had to provide electrical connections from the house to a shed on the property. Nick, the owner, came and gave me two estimates with different options and prices to address the issue. The work was done by a technician, Rustam. The task was not easy. There were some connections to the shed in the past, but all wires were running in underground conduits that were constructed decades ago and were not accessible. I was impressed by the work Rustam did in solving the issue of finding and repairing those connections. It was very challenging to find those wires. But Rustam proceeded very methodically and creatively, never gave up on his search (even when I thought that we had explored all the possibilities), and finally found it! He was also very polite and respectful in his demeanor. I highly recommend Rustam and Electrica.

Showed up right on time, Max was very professional and clean... The work was performed in a timely manner. Very satisfied... Highly recommend! Thanks guys.

I contacted Electrica for an estimate to install an electrical vehicle charger. Nick came out to give the estimate. He was on-time and knowledgeable about the electrical panel. He provided multiple options for the installation location. Unfortunately, Nick did not seem to know that NASC is now the industry standard for EV charging. He referred to my EV as a Kia, even though he was corrected multiple times that it was a Hyundai. He consistently recommended Tesla products and he discouraged, permitting for the installation. His quote for getting a city permit was twice that of other electricians and, ultimately, we decided to go with another provider, who supported permitting for the project.

I recently had a Tesla Wall charger installed at my home and couldn't be happier with the entire experience with Electrica.Inc everything was professional, fast, and flawless. The Electrician Mr Andrew arrived right on time, was extremely knowledgeable about Tesla's charging ecosystem and took the time to understand exactly where I wanted the charger placed for the cleanest look and easiest daily use, perfect conduit run, absolutely level with the cable managed beautifully. i highly recommend Electrica.Inc and Mr Andrew works.

Needed repair/investigation of random circuit failure in the house. Same day service checked entire system and replaced faulty outdoor transformer. Great service and will use again if needed. reasonable price and professional friendly communication.

Nick has been helpful and flexible, installation and removal after couple years both went well without any issues.

Amazing job from start to finish. Excellent communication throughout the process, and attention to detail! I couldn't be happier with the service--installing an external hardwired ChargePoint EV charger, transitioning from my original plug-in setup inside the garage.

I needed to wire and install a 240v hanging power heater. We needed to have new switches from our main breaker to the backyard. They did the work on-time and at a fair price. We will use them for all of our electrical needs in the future.

The Tesla installation guys appear to be dismayed by what they saw in the garage. I guess it was bad enough that they were worried that the inspector would simply wholesale refuse to sign off on the project even though the non-compliant items were unrelated to the hardware that they had installed (solar and powerwall). They didn't elaborate too much but they explained that the wires coming out of the sub-panel in the garage had to be in a conduit. The previous owner must have installed his own electric in the garage and it was not done to code. Before leaving they pretty much begged me to bring in a professional to fix it which I promised I would. I posted a photo and explanation on Yelp. Among all the canned responses Nick was the only one who responded with "How long a conduit?". I appreciated the attention to detail and decided to go with him. Now, these Eastern European folks tend to be a fairly unflappable having presumably seen all manner of shoddy electrical work. But even they were horrified ("You have 50 Amps 240 Volts not in conduit!!! This is BAAAAAD!!!!! Person installing this is like MONKEY!!!"). Apparently, it wasn't just your usual power lines that came out of that subpanel but also the wire to the AC condenser which carries a substantial amount of current. His tech disconnected all the wires, moved a box and put everything in a conduit (see photo). It looks rock solid. I liked working with them enough that I asked Nick to come back and install an EV charging plug. Nick gave me good suggestions on what I should install and where I should install it. He also explained what things are required by common sense and best engineering practices, what things are required by California code, and what to do when the two don't intersect. We spoke on Fri. Already the next day his tech came out to do the work. Andrey worked with me to get the plug exactly right. He helped improvise a support for the BMW charger from a bike hook I had lying around (see photo). Again, the installation looks rock solid. Overall, my impression is that Nick and his guys are genuinely concerned with doing high quality work and not just rushing through the job ("We use good plug not Home Depo cr*p. You sleep good at night!"). I'm happy I went with a local company and will certainly be using them again if I need any electrical work done.

Great service, had a different company install a my main breaker box as well as install a generator transfer switch. Well needless to say is they did a horrible job. Called the good people at Electrica to inspect. The came inspected the work and explained to me in simple terms what was don't correctly and incorrectly. Quoted me on the spot for repairs and got to work. Quality was above and beyond what I expected, everything is working the way it should. Not to mention reasonable pricing, I will using Electrica for all my electrical needs from now on.

I messaged about needing a plug installed for my dryer and was able to get my appointment and the plug installed within 3 hours of messaging. And on Memorial Day weekend! Highly impressed and will use again.

Nick and Andrew did a great job upgrading my electrical panel and adding a new EV charger. The work was completed in two days at a fair price. Very professional, arrived on time and understood everything that needed to be done. This is a very easy company to work with and I would definately hire them again to work at my home. (July 2025)

I chose Electrica partly because of their 5.0 rating to install two grounded outlets for my air conditioner. Max and Rasty lived up to the 5.0 rating. They were absolutely excellent! They did top notch work. They let me know what they were doing and why. When there was a problem, they let me know. They gave me options and let me decide what to do. On top of their excellent workmanship, they were friendly and very pleasant to have in my house. The final cost was within the range which Nick had quoted over the phone. It was only $50 over the lowest of 3 bids I received and $550 under the highest bid. Very pleased with Max and Rasty, Electrica, and the beautiful job they did.

Simply great service. Electrica installed an EV charger for me in my garage. Nick leads a great team and is very responsive. He explained everything he needed to do and why. Quotes were clear and I knew exactly what I was paying for. I'll be calling Electrica again for my future electrical needs.

Installed a chargepoint EV charger in our garage. Did quick and excellent work! Very communicative and responsive. Followed up with me to ensure it was working perfectly. Appreciate it!

I found them on Yelp and they truly exceeded my expectations. I needed a Tesla Charger installed, but my meter capacity was low. Their team handled the job flawlessly and ensured everything was done up to code. They are knowledgeable, efficient, and highly professional. I would strongly recommend them for any electrical services.

Last summer, my master circuit breaker tripped on a hot day, and then it tripped again a week later. I requested a quote to replace it through Yelp, and Nick from Electrica was one of the first to respond. He was extremely responsive, texting with me in the evening and even on weekends. He was able to replace my master CB while I was at work, quickly and for a very reasonable price. It's been fine ever since. This year, my A/C circuit breaker tripped multiple times so I texted Nick again late on a Friday night. He sent Andrew out Saturday afternoon, and Andrew had the problem diagnosed in under 10 minutes. A rodent had chewed through the electrical wires under my back deck, causing a short. Andrew replaced the wires along with a new wall box and a conduit (which should have been there in the first place) in under two hours, on a Saturday, with a last-minute appointment. Electrica is my go-to for any electrical issues.

EV charger was added and they fixed an outside electrical box too. Everything is working and done in timely manner. Work looks great. Quote was similar to other contractors, but this company seems to do a lot of EV chargers.

I called Electrical a few days ago and they were able to accommodate me quickly by coming to my business within 48 hours to install a new (110 electrical outlet) in my office. I was pleased to see them come 10/15 min early, had a professional van, all the equipment plus vacuum. They were able to do in 2 1/2 hours, layed plastic down, vacuumed, and did a great job cleaning up. They had to cut a 5 foot piece of sheetrock out but was able to reuse and put back in the exact spot, plus they patched the wall. I'm very happy with their professionalism and accommodating me on short notice.

I reached out to Nick to install an EV charger in our pre-wired home. Nick was punctual, responsive to both messages and calls, and provided clear, straightforward recommendations. His attention to detail sets his work apart from others.

Their exceptional 5-star reputation is fully justified. We requested a quote for the installation of a Level 2 EV charger. Nick promptly visited the following morning to discuss the various options and outline the limitations of the setup, which required the use of a load balancer due to 100A service. We finalized the pricing, and his crew (Max) arrived within two hours. Max was knowledgeable, courteous, and systematic throughout the installation process. He kept me informed at every stage of the setup and confirmed multiple times the precise location and placement of the EVSE. A few hours later, I was successfully charging my EV at 40A on a 100A panel without the requirement for an expensive panel upgrade. Highly recommended!

Clear quote and scheduling process, prompt, courteous technician, excellent work at a reasonable price. Recommend.

Quick to respond, provided me with a fair quote. Very professional and nice associates. They were able to schedule and complete for me on a Sunday which is excellent for me because I work from home. Would highly recommend.

Great install. Installed a new 4-prong out of the main breaker box. Excellent communication throughout the process and clean process. Quote is on point, no additional charges beyond what was agreed upfront. Thanks Electrica! Will reach out again if i have more projects Thanks!

Nick is straightforward, knowledgeable, punctual and does a great job at fair price. He also provides useful tips for further operating a Tesla universal charger

They came out promptly to diagnose our broken car charger and install a new smart thermostat. They took care of everything with the new charger, including the permit inspection and figuring out error messages for one of our cars (turned out to be a broken port on the car). They were very considerate about placement of the new charger. They acknowledged up front that they weren't certain about the thermostat installation for our house (radiant heat), but gave it a try. It didn't work. They tried to troubleshoot via text, and when that didn't work refunded the full amount for the failed installation. Very happy with the service! They were professional, straightforward, and thorough. Great crew.

Just got finished with the install of my new Tesla charger. Nick was very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. I would certainly recommend him to anyone who needs electrical work done.

Electrica provided excellent service. Nick came on a Sunday and installed everything (240V NEMA 14-50 outlet) quickly and cleaned up after (I've had contractors who left me with a huge mess to clean up afterwards). I definitely plan to use them again for future electrical needs.

Nick is down to earth guy with quick hands. very responsive in terms of messaging and email. I have installed NEMA 14-50 250V outlet for EV level 2 charging.

Needed a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed. Responded to my initial message within 10 minutes. Received a general quote on project cost. Was able to squeeze in a same day appointment within 3 hrs of my initial message. Max was efficient and respectful while working. Price was fair for what needed to be done. 10/10 would use again.

I am just a guy who doesn't know a lot about transfer switch but I know I want to install one for my home due to we usually experience several power outage during raining season in Bay Area. I contacted several companies who think they can help me with this project. Nick at Electrica is the ONLY person who is patient and knowledgeable enough to ask me some important questions and educate me what is what and how the whole system (yes. including generator, cable type...etc) comes together to help me during power outage. They quoted me the second best price for the installation but based on my communication with Nick, they are the one and only company I feel that know what they are doing and have the experience I want as my project handler. My gut feeling is right on the money when they send Max to work on the project on 9/25/2025. Max is very organized, efficient and patient (pretty much like Nick I have experienced with). The project hits a hiccup when we were testing the final installation due to our 100 year-old house has a very weird wiring issue but Max behaved just like a pro and get it all sorted out and fixed in no time. This experience is so smooth and calm even I know very little about transfer switch from the start (most information I had is from youtube videos). If You are interested in hiring an electrician and your knowledge about the project is limited like me, your best bet is Electrica. Nick, Max, thank you so much for your patience and help. I really appreciate it.

Andrew from Electrica came and did a quick diagnostic on our electrical panel. Repaired a burnt wire and replaced our breaker. Also gave information on what caused the issue and what upgrades we might need in the future. Quick friendly service, no upsell. Would recommend for future projects.

We worked with Nick from Electrica to install the Tesla Level 2 charger and the Neurio Load balancer at our house. Nick first came over to inspect the panel and the location of the installation and gave us a quote. His quote was reasonable compared to what I heard from colleagues and reading online forums. He also did a great job of explaining the installation and city permitting process to me. So we decided to go ahead with him to get the installation done. After we made our decision, Nick was able to accommodate us quickly for an installation the very next day. He arrived right on the clock at the promised time and got started with his work. As some one who likes to observe and ask a lot of questions when getting things fixed at my home, I naturally asked Nick many question about why he was doing something the way he was doing and so on, and Nick was kind enough to answer all of my questions. He completed the installation and walked me through how he had programmed the wall charger and Neurio load balancer to work well with my sub-panel limit. I decided get the city permit myself (and I'm working on the same right now) and I'm hoping that will go smoothly too. Overall, very happy with the installation work and the professionalism. Thank you!

Nick installed an EV charger outlet for me. He is responsive, gave clear explanations, kept a clean job site and provided options and recommendations. He was also flexible for the timing of my job. While the estimate was not the least expensive he was also not the most expensive quote and did a professional job.

The Electrica team was fast, hard working, reasonably priced, and very friendly! I reached out to them through Yelp regarding 1) broken outlets, 2) broken lights, 3) installing a Tesla wall charger and 4) installing new outlets in the house. Nick got back to me in 15 minutes and had Max at my house diagnosing the issues within an hour and a half. He always wore shoe coverings in the house too which was very appreciated! One by one, he fixed all the broken outlets in the house and also found some inefficient electrical wiring along the way. After 2 hours, Max and Nick walked me through the game plan and cost of installing an EV charger, adding the new outlets, and fixing the inefficient wiring in my house. The cost was reasonable and so after giving them the go ahead, Max worked full steam to get the work done. He didn't leave until he finished what he needed to do! Everything was completed by the following evening and I couldn't be happier with the service I received from this team! Highly recommend.

I wanted to replace our gas water heater with electric one, which required a new circuit to be installed to the closet. I struggled to find a good electrician so I relieved when Nick responded very quickly and did a same-day evaluation. I was impressed that even remotely he spotted that the electric subpanel was already fully loaded and he recommended another solution. Next day he arrived promptly and the work was completed accurately on time. Very satisfied with the communication and work. I will not hesitate to call him again for my next project.

I had Electrica install a Level 2 charging port for my electric vehicle. They were very focused on quality as well as safety. Nick came out for the initial consult and Max did the install. Both were incredibly nice, professional and hard working. Nick also took time to explain the process to me as it is not something I am familiar with. They were incredibly punctual and efficient and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely use them again!

Nick was very prompt; responded right away with an estimate, rather than requiring me to schedule an appointment to receive one; and very patiently explained his diagnosis and recommended repairs. He was friendly and knowledgeable - would definitely recommend!

Absolutely great experience with Andrew from Electrica. Very professional and hard working. He replaced my fuse box which was becoming a fire hazard, at a great price. I am planning to use Electrica and hopefully Andrew again soon.

I called Nick at Electrica on Wednesday, and the next day we had two chargers installed- one for an electric car and one for a hybrid. Nick gave excellent suggestions for our chargers, and Max did an excellent job doing the installation. Highly recommend!

Nick is fantastic, highly organized and clear in his communication. We needed an EV charger installed in a unit that we had rented out to someone. This process required a lot of co-ordination between Nick, myself and our renter. But Nick was on top of it all. We also wanted to do things the right way - with a city permit. Nick can do the entire permit process for you if you pay for that service. This is excellent because as a customer, you don't need to deal with the complex permit process. Nick was highly organized in all his communication with me and also my renter. He proposed options for the installation that worked really well for us. He is also super transparent and clear about everything. If you appreciate quality, honesty and being organized, Nick is your guy! I'd definitely utilize his services again. We had reached out to a few other electricians too - but nobody was so super clear and organized as Nick. He was the best guy for the job!

I recommend Nick and Electrica to anyone considering their services. Nick reached out very quickly after I requested a quote for EV charger home install . Electrica provided assessment/quote the following day. He told us what we needed and things that weren't necessary. He also was patient while we decided when we would proceed. His staff is nice/efficient. He wore a crawl space suit and did not leave any mess behind. Nick even came back a few days later to help with the EV hook. We were real happy with the entire process. Thank you!

Nick was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. He walked me through what he was doing and he obviously knows what he's doing. To top it off, he was extremely quick and his prices were very fair for the work he puts in.

Today Electrica saved us big time. We had a new washer/dryer delivered and installed today but the dryer kept tripping the breaker. I used the Yelp project function to help find an electrician. They were the first to reach out and the most responsive by being able to come same day. Tech got here and started to work and found that the installers did not connect the cord correctly to the machine. So, he fixed that and turned the outlet around so the cord could lay properly. Overall Electrica Inc was perfect, timely and valuable to us. Highly recommend for all your electrical needs.

Nick, the owner, is very responsive, professional, and honest. When I reached out for an estimate on a new sub-panel and EV charger in the garage he was able to quickly schedule a consult, showed up on time, and was quick and efficient with a line item quote explaining what was required. He was able to squeeze me in on a weekend and knocked out the job in a day. I would hire again if needed.

I contracted Electrica to upgrade my main service panel and install a NEMA 14-50 to charge my EV. Not only was Nick able to help me through the process, but he also provided very quick turnaround for the jobs. I was never left waiting for his team, as they were always ready to work on my house the moment that PG&E moved the process forward. Thank you for your professionalism and speed!
