Pacific Coast Home Services

Pacific Coast electricians, are without a doubt the best electricians in the Bay Area. I am a former employee that had to leave for personal reasons, so what I say is unbiased. From an internal standpoint, you will never find a group that is so dedicated to its clients. At previous company's, I had always been used to being the ONLY one that took pride in my work. When I was introduced to the Guys at PCE, I quickly realized that everyone shared this value. They not only take pride in their work, but they constantly try to improve. At PCE, being the best, is not good enough. At PCE, there is always something better. There is always something safer. There is always a more efficient way to do things. There is always a way to improve, even though they are already the best. But I guess that's why they ARE the best. That to me is why this company gets 5 stars. Because to them, doing the right thing isn't just an option. It's an obligation.

The competing electrical company's won't be around much longer because of the corners they cut, and they know this. That's why they don't warranty their equipment. PCE warranty's everything because they know it's quality and they know they are going to still be thriving as a business. If you are wondering which company to go with, choose PCE. There is a reason they are the standard authority in their field, and it's because they are the only ones pushing for more. Pushing for greatness. Pushing for the future.

If you don't know who to follow, follow the leader.
There's a reason they lead the pack.

Started out good but spiraled out of control quickly. Eric was the first contact when I had a power outage. He was very helpful but I needed a rewire. The quote appeared high but they explained Ygrene financing which was pretty much incorrect. They also stated they would assist with insurance, which they did not until 1 month after my claim was already paid they tried to file the documents.
The biggest issues is the low quality of contractors they hire and the ability to reach anyone consistently. Examples:
1. First plaster repairer blasted music, swore up and down, lied about previous appointment, threw trash away in recycle cans and washed plaster equipment in my sink. I asked he not come back.
2 months later new plaster person comes, work looks good except they missed 4 repairs, damaged my stereo and bent my shelves.
2. Roofer threw shingles in my yard and left, no-showed and left other garbage.
3. Whole process began 12/15/2017 and last fix did not occur until 4/27/18
4. PGE complained about the additional whole and pipe through my roof which should not have occurred. Pipe not attached to wall and therefore increases stress on roof.
5. Took a month of calls to get reimbursed for damaged
6. $5000 in fees for something my insurance paid for because of Ygrene.
7. Insurance member at pacific coast did not return calls and I filled claim.
8 older pipe from box removed and person thought they would leave the hold rather than getting a roofer, leaving roof exposed
9 tried to illegally trim tree without discussing with owner and without need

Please read all the fine print and understand what you are getting yourself into for a rewire. Thought it would take 1 month instead of 5

Update: Tricia the number provided states no longer in service or I would be happy to discuss

Had to write this cause the greetings were one of a kind.

Loved their receptionist greetings when they pick up the phone (shows the good pleasant attitude). Understood my emergency and gave me an appointment.

Josiah Sandoval from Pacific Coast Electricians performed an outstanding job installing our EV charging outlet (240v 50amp) and represented the company well. Josiah was extremely professional, courteous, prompt, and genuinely enthusiastic about his job.

Josiah ensured the work area was cleaned up as well.

We would use them again for any electrical needs we may have in the future, and would recommend them to our friends.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Our experience with Pacific Coast was fabulous from start to finish. Francis came to the house to walk through our project (replacing outdoor lights, replacing the transformer, and adding additional landscape lights) and was thorough, professional, and thoughtful. The entire project was completed a week later. Levi was our technician and was amazing. He was on time, polite, professional and did an exceptional job. He walked me through everything twice, and completely cleaned up and removed all debris (boxes, old lights, etc.).

I highly recommend Pacific Coast.

I would give 10 stars, if I could. We experienced an intermittent partial power outage the other day and didn't know who to call since we haven't had an electrical problem since we moved here sometime ago. I remember seeing the green trucks in our neighborhood recently and thought I would give them a try after reading some good reviews. Glad I did! Ezekiel and Sarah M. arrived on time shortly after I called for an appointment. I immediately felt at ease with them and everything was explained to me very clearly as they went through the diagnostic process. They were very diligent and thorough and I felt confident that they were doing a good job. It turned out that the problem was in the meter pole outside so the management company of our property has to take care of it. Now for the extra stars. As I mentioned, the outage was intermittent lasting just a short time throughout the day. A little while after Ezekial and Sarah left, they returned. He remembered that our refrigerator was connected to the bad circuit and when he went to work on our breaker panel, Sarah shared with me that he just couldn't leave without connecting our fridge to the good circuit, just in case. Well, just in case has happened because the power is out and has been since last night (about 16 hours ago), but we haven't lost any food. Oh, and no charge. I cannot thank these two enough for being so kind, competent and friendly during a somewhat stressful situation.

Very professionally run and responded very quickly! We had an electrical short in the house which took out the power in half the house. Benny Salas from Pacific Coast Electricians came over and found the problem right away. He fixed the short and we also had him rewire the outlets in the entire circuit for safety. I rate them top notch.

Before this project, I knew nothing about installing an Electrical Panel in a house. Now I can tell you what it takes to install a proper panel. The reason is that Pacific Coast Electricians (PCE) has essentially forced me to do all the project planning, coordination, and quality control for them because they assigned us ill prepared technicians and paid no attention to permits and inspections. I have had to understand the difference between a flush and surface mount panel and the differing requirements for the stucco process and the City and PG&E permit processes. Why us? We paid an exorbitant amount. I believe that they assigned their weakest technicians because our home is in Alum Rock, San Jose.

I am updating my review... After 4 months, this project was finally completed to my satisfaction.

The charge for trouble shooting is too high especially when combined with the service call charge. The service itself was good.
