What customers say

Heather Mongiello
We have used Smith Electric on 2 electrical upgrades in the last year. Both jobs went perfectly smooth and were handled with the utmost care by the entire company. Would definitely recommend them and we will use them for all future jobs.
Liana Tsirklin
Smith just completed an electrical panel upgrade for us, and they were amazing to work with. Reasonable pricing, great communication/follow-up, very reliable team, extremely thorough scope of work, couldn't ask for a better experience! We will definitely be contacting them for future electrical needs, and highly recommend them in the meantime
Paul Dijkstra
They came out a few days before the actual work to check on the house and the final placement for the charge point. Job was done well but I was under the impression that the metal pipes would be painted white (color of my house) but that was apparently not the case. So because of the misunderstanding of the paint job that would have finished the installation I only give them a 4 start rating.

We used Smith Electrical Contractors to install 20 solar panels on our roof and add a circuit for a hot tub. Dave and his team are fantastic. They handled everything with SDGE. They were timely, professional, and the work product is perfect. Whatever your electrical needs, Smith has you covered.

They were extremely quick to get me on the schedule for same week(their office staff is awesome in responsiveness), electrician showed up on time, and completed the work quickly with great workmanship.
