maria castro on Safety First Electric

I booked my appointment on 3/2 in the morning and called the front desk for more information. The receptionist booked my same-day appointment and I received an email confirmation. Later, I suddenly got a text saying the appointment needed to be rescheduled — but then, about 15 minutes later, Chris (the technician) showed up with the job order anyway.

The receptionist’s communication was a negative 1. The misinformation and last-minute changes showed there’s clearly no coordination between the front desk and the technicians.
Thankfully, Chris was the complete opposite. He arrived prepared, explained everything clearly, and came up with a solid game plan. He handled the job professionally and efficiently.

I’d give Chris 5 stars, but the front desk communication brings the overall experience down.

Jeff B (Jeffery) on Safety First Electric

The gentleman, Jacob and Moises (pretty sure that was their names) were fantastic. The work was done quickly, cleanly and with expert care. I can't be happier. My house is much safer now. I had a new breaker box installed (my old one was from the 1970s), and a new 240 line (50 amp) and box to my kitchen (they ran the line under the house). All that for about $9k, which is a small investment to keep the house in code and safe.

We had the pleasure of hiring this company over the christmas holiday. They are detailed and very professional. The workmen Jonathan and Jorge N arrived each day on time and worked tirelessly. They kept us informed every step of the way. Jonathan in particular took his time to make sure we knew what he was doing. The owner Ronnie did the initial assessment of our home, and reassured us that we would be taken care of as soon as possible, and we were. Thank You !

Heart Style on Safety First Electric

PG&E didn’t cross connect (energize) our new 400amp main panel due to the wires inside panel wasn’t connected to the lugs (panel not being ready). We called ‘Safety First Electric’ because other electricians didn’t have the right equipment. Ronnie was professional, highly knowledgeable on 400amp panels, super cool ?? guy, clean and quick. He could done this with his eyes closed. I highly highly highly recommend Ronnie and his company. Don’t look any further these electricians are amazing (10 ?? stars)!
