"On Saturday, July 20th I logged into the website for Wire Tech Electric and requested someone come out to my house to give me a quote to add a Level 2 electric vehicle charging station into my garage for my new Chevy Bolt. I received an email back from Olvin Rivera later that evening and we arranged to meet on Wednesday afternoon (July 24th) for the free quote for the installation. Olvin texted me prior to the scheduled time to let me know he was on his way. I already knew that my existing 220-amp breaker panel was full and after he arrived we discussed adding a subpanel into the garage to contain the 40-amp breaker for the 240-VAC level 2 charging station. Across the board, Olvinâ s prices for the work and materials was better than the prices listed for Amazonâ s professional installation for any of their level 2 chargers. He emailed me a copy of the quote and I decided to go with his team. This morning Olvin texted me prior to his scheduled time to inform me that he was heading over to do the install. He and a helper came out to the house and extended the main breaker panel into the garage and added the subpanel, 6-gauge wire (rather than the smaller 8-gauge wire that was minimally required) and terminated everything to a NEMA 14-30 outlet. Everything was professionally installed, the breakers were tested and frankly it really looked like it belonged there. Ten minutes after they left UPS delivered the TurboDX charger that I had ordered. Unfortunately, the TurboDX charger required direct connection to the power source rather than through the NEMA plug. Luckily, Olvin Rivera from Wire Tech Electric was able to return where upon he removed the NEMA plug and modified the wall connection to allow the power to be connected directly to the charger. The TurboDX charger was a problem from the get-go as although the charger came in a nice aluminum casing, the casing needed to be drilled out to allow the electrical feed to enter from the back into the housing. Olvin had the necessary tools to get the casing drilled out and inserted a plastic knockout bushing to protect the wiring through the hole. Then he leveled and attached the charger to the wall and connected the power directly to the charger. He also called the tech support hotline for the TurboDX charger to ensure everything had been properly connected (the installation instructions for the TurboDX charger were a little too basic for what we were doing.) Everything worked and the vehicle charged the last 60 miles until full charge in just under 2 hours. I really liked the way Wire Tech Electric kept in contact with me throughout the process from answering my request for a quote, then sending me the full quote after we discussed the work to be done, the text messages prior to arrival to let me know to expect them and their promptness to arrive within the designated appointment time. I found Olvin and his helper (whose name I have forgotten) to be very professional and courteous and the work was first rate. I will definitely keep them in mind for any future electrical contract work."

Customers say: True professional

"We highly recommend Mendez Electric for any electrical and/or general construction work you need done on your home. We hired Mendez Electric, a multi-generational family business, in 2024 at the recommendation of a neighbor who had used them to completely rewire their 100-year-old home in Berkeley's Elmwood neighborhood. Mendez Electric did a full inspection and report of our electric system, which still included a lot of knob and tube. We ultimately hired Mendez Electric to undertake a major electrical project (six figure project) for our older home which included: 1) a complete system/wiring upgrade and installation of a 300 amp service panel upgrade. This work included all relevant permitting and coordination with PGE. Mendez Electric’s staff are highly knowledgeable, efficient, communicative, competitively priced and focused on high customer service. We have hired Mendez Electric in subsequent months to handle several smaller general construction projects, e.g., cement/sidewal"

FAQs for electrical service projects in Albany, CA

Always start by confirming the pro’s license number, insurance coverage, and experience level. Visit the electrician’s website, scan recent customer reviews, and verify credentials with your local labor department. Request proof of liability insurance and at least two references that you can contact. These quick checks take only a few minutes but go a long way toward ensuring safe, code-compliant work and protecting your home in the event of an issue.

Grouping several electrical jobs into one appointment means you pay a single service-call fee and one set of travel expenses. Instead of asking a pro to return three separate times for outlets, switches, and fixtures, have everything tackled in one visit. The electrician stays productive, and you avoid extra trip charges, often shaving a sizable chunk off the final bill without compromising quality.

DIY electrical work can be dangerous and, in many areas, illegal without a license. One miswired connection risks shocks, fires, or expensive damage. Licensed electricians carry the right tools, follow local code, and know how to shut down power safely before they start. Hiring a pro may cost more upfront, but it protects your home, family, and insurance coverage in the long run.
