Berkeley Electric

Berkeley Electric is a great company. They did a whole house rewire of my home. The entire process went smoothly. There was always clear communication, attention to detail, respect for the home, and quality work. I strongly recommend them.

We brought in Berkeley Electric to do a significant servic upgrade, new sub panels, and some attic fans. Zalman and his crew are probably the best contractor we have worked with. His crew was probably the most professional group we have had work in our home. By 9am the house was a full work site, and yet somehow every day at 5pm we had everything back in order for family dinner (with two toddlers). It was quite a feat. They went above and beyond on some of the work, including painting that was not in the original contract. Then after we discovered that the new 240V plug wouldn't accommodate the new induction oven, they came back out and moved it as part of the original quote. We had som…

Berkeley Electric performed excellent work on our home. We truly appreciate their craftsmanship and professionalism throughout the process. They removed all knob and tube, rewired, installed a new light fixture, and moved and upgraded our panel - all while we were working from home with a toddler running around the house. Everyday they set up working areas, patched holes, and cleaned up after themselves. They also coordinated with PG&E and the City. We highly recommend them.

Berkeley Electric replaced all my old screw-in fuses with new, updated electrical panels. It was a complicated job, given the realities of a very old three story house.

They left their workspaces neat and clean at the end of each day too. Just an all-around good company, and one I can enthusiastically recommend.

Berkeley Electric did an amazing job on a major rewiring, lighting, subpanel install, and main panel upgrade. We will definitely hire them the next time we have an electrical project! Zalman was a pleasure during the initial assessment. After a poor experience with another bigger company, I particularly appreciated his honesty, evidenced by some things he *didn't* do: he didn't try to scare me or overuse industry jargon, and he didn't try to oversell (he actually talked me down from 6 cans to 4 for overhead lighting in one room). The work itself took a team of ~6 about a week and a half to complete, working long days. They taped heavy duty paper to the floors and covered all…
