      Have 200 amp service but lacked space for additional circuits.
      Alex was quick to understand my needs and the work required for the job, which entailed adding a subpanel, moving and consolidating some existing circuits, and adding new circuits some 80 feet away.
      His quote was quick and detailed, and at a fair price.
      His team worked deligently start to finish and within planned timeframe.
      Alex walked me through the finished work and made sure I was satisfied that it met expectations.
      My expectations were exceeded and he will be my go-to electrician from here on out.
      Sure, it always good to check a variety of contractor review sources like Diamond Certified, BBB, etc., but ensure Emminent is on your list. I'm confident they'll make it to your top-of-list.

      When my parents bought their house last month, we found a bunch of electrical issues after they moved in. We contacted several electrical companies, but they were all slow to respond if they did at all. And then I remembered that I had used Eminent Electrical 8 years ago to install a 240 volt line for our EV and that I had been very happy with their work. So I gave Alex a call and he responded very quickly.

      After a short site visit when we explained all the issues we had, Alex was able to give us a detailed quote after a few days that seemed very fair. His workers were polite and very hard-working, and they did everything according to code. They also cleaned up everything afterwards and I would absolutely use them again for any Electrical work we might have!

      Alex is great! He is a knowledgeable electrician who gets the job done quickly. Very reliable and honest. Had a faulty switch and outlet near garbage disposal in kitchen. He talked to us by phone first to give some advice on how to fix the problem ourselves for free. Turns out the problem wasn't an easy fix so he came same day and took care of it! Highly recommend his services. Customer in Redwood City.

      I had them install a Tesla charger in my home. They did a great job! They were quick, reliable, and almost half the price of other bids. They got us a permit too with no hassle.

      As part of a large home remodel for our 1930's home, we wanted to have the knob and tube all replaced and upgraded. They also changed and upgraded our service box.

      They were amazing. There was minimal opening of walls (lathe and plaster) and the work was done quick and great! We ended up adding a few other items as they worked such as plugs for outside, etc... Alex quickly sent a work change order and it was all seemless.

      I would recommend them. They did a wonderful job on our old house that had those typical old house problems.

      I am in the process of installing solar thus I wanted to update the panel first. Alex patiently worked with me on the requirements from the Solar vendor. He even called out something the solar people forgot. Anyway, I find him to be reasonably priced and the work was done well. You can trust him and his crew to get it done!

      Alex and his team are simply amazing. Alex is fair in his pricing, really educates you and provides you pros and cons for the things you are assessing to be done and I find him incredibly trustworthy.

      In this, my most recent project with him, he helped me get a new house ready for move in. Knob and Tube Wiring replacement, switches moved, switches where previously there were cords used to turn on bulbs across the room, new panel so that we could future proof for electrical appliances, addition of a 220V plug for an electric dryer, installation of an EV charger, new floor plugs, install of a mounted art light.

      In everything, he communicates clearly, he and his team worked as scheduled. Seriously, my favorite part of getting this house ready to move in? Working with Alex!

      Working with Alex to install our Level 2 EV charger, NEMA 14-50 sockets, and GFCI breakers was very easy. He was able to talk through our project and make suggestions due to our request to install not 1 but 2 sockets and a plug-in charger. His team was fast and efficient.

      He also was able to help us with an additional small project to clean up some loose wiring elsewhere, so the garage looks so much better.

      Alex has completed many projects at my house over the last decade including adding outlets, lighting upgrades, and a main panel replacement. All of his work is high quality. He and his team are extremely professional. I highly recommend him for any home electrical projects.

      One example of his work is that he added overhead lighting in a few rooms in my house including a mix of recessed and pendant lights. Alex goes beyond just installing the lights--he pays attention to placement in the room to make sure the lighting fits the room and blends in with the existing lighting. I am impressed how seamless the results were and how much they improved the space.

      We had a rewire project for our house and Alex at Eminent Electrical did a fantastic job. We loved everything about the process, from the walk through to the job, to the follow ups throughout.

      The work on the rewire was great, the team who managed the day to day were efficient and highly respectful of our space. Work was quoted as a 5 day project and they finished in roughly 3 days! We had several check-ins throughout, which helped address in the moment issues or just to let us know how things were going.

      After this rewire project, I'll keep Eminent Electrical and Alex on hand for any electrical project we come across from now on. Expert work all around!
