Electric Vehicle Charging Station Installation Service
Very good experience overall. We needed an EV charger installed in our detached garage, and the scope felt pretty daunting at first. They made the process easy on our end. Miguel really knows EV charging, and it showed in how he handled the job.

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
really happy with how our new panel turned out. Mark took care of the whole permit process so we didn't have to deal with any of it, and he kept us posted the entire way. The crew's wiring was honestly impeccable, super clean work. def calling them again next time we need anything electrical.

Such a relief to have Mark from Gridwise on our Tesla Powerwall install. He laid out all our options in a way that actually made sense and walked us through each step, so we'll be passing his name along to friends.

Our hot tub is hooked up and running, and the quality of the work is excellent. Mark made the entire process easy, which I very much appreciated. The wiring is clean and neatly organized, the kind of care you hope for but do not always get. They also cleaned up after themselves, so there was nothing left for us to deal with.

Electrical for Home Addition or Remodel Installation
We contacted Gridwise because we were concerned about a few electrical issues and wanted them thoroughly investigated. We were quite anxious going into it. Enrique was incredibly straightforward and informative. He walked us through his findings, explaining what could wait and what needed immediate attention. He avoided any fear tactics or pressure to do everything at once. The estimate was easy to understand, and they provided us with a few options for moving forward. On the day of the work, they arrived promptly and were respectful throughout our home. They kept reminding us to tidy up and explained their actions as they went. Once the work was complete, they walked me through the changes made and advised me on what to monitor in the future.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks so much for this! Going in anxious about electrical issues is completely normal, so our goal on every inspection is to lay out clearly what needs attention now and what can wait, then give a few options so you can plan at your own pace. We also make a point of walking through the finished work and flagging anything worth keeping an eye on down the road. Really glad it gave you some peace of mind."

Had a Nest thermostat and a Ring doorbell that I tried to install myself and couldn't figure out the wiring on either one. Miguel came out and got both working in under a couple hours. Turns out my thermostat needed a C-wire run which is why it kept losing connection. He also set up the Ring transformer so it actually gets enough power. Highly recommend all around.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks so much for the kind words! Smart thermostats and video doorbells are some of the most common DIY installs we get called about, and the issue usually comes down to power. In this case, the thermostat needed a C-wire run to hold a steady connection, and the doorbell transformer needed an upgrade to supply enough power. Glad we could get both running reliably in one visit."

Electrical for Home Addition or Remodel Installation
We contacted Gridwise because we had a few electrical concerns and wanted a real safety inspection. I was honestly nervous and expected the usual “everything is urgent” talk. Instead, Enrique was calm and practical. He explained what was actually important, what could wait, and why—without trying to scare us. The estimate was clear and they offered options. When they came back to do the fixes, they showed up on time, were respectful in the house, and kept it tidy. I felt a lot better after.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thank you for trusting us with this! A safety inspection shouldn't feel like a sales pitch. We focus on explaining what actually matters for safety, what can wait, and why, so you can make decisions with the full picture. On the return visit, we completed the repairs on schedule and left the space clean. Happy to hear you're feeling better about your home's electrical."

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
Gridwise helped with low-voltage prewire during a remodel. Stas asked a bunch of clarifying questions up front (in a good way), which kept it from turning into a messy ?figure it out later? situation. The runs are organized and they documented what was run and where. That documentation alone is going to save us time later. Scheduling was straightforward, and we didn?t get any surprise scope creep.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks so much for the kind words! Low-voltage prewire during a remodel is one of those jobs where the planning up front makes all the difference, so we're glad the extra questions paid off. We label every run and hand over a map of what went where, so whoever works on the system down the road isn't guessing. Really appreciate you trusting us with the project!"

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
I had Gridwise do a couple smart home upgrades (new circuit + rewiring so we?d stop tripping stuff). Markwalked me through it in plain language and didn?t act annoyed when I asked basic questions. Also: good communication. Stas texted updates, and when I pinged them later with a follow-up question, someone responded quickly instead of disappearing.The work itself looks clean and they didn?t leave a mess behind.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thank you for taking the time to write this! Adding a dedicated circuit and rewiring the overloaded runs should keep the breakers from tripping going forward. No question is too basic for us - we'd rather you understand your electrical system than just take our word for it. And we're always a text away if anything else comes up. Thanks again!"

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
We brought Gridwise in for electrical work connected to a solar wiring project. I was a little on edge going in because our last contractor experience was? not great. Stas was the first person we talked to and he set the tone: clear scope, what?s included, and what might change if the panel had surprises. That alone made it feel more predictable. On install day, Enrique ran the job and the crew was steady and respectful in the house. When something small came up, they didn?t force one path?they gave a couple options and explained the pros/cons in a way I could actually follow. The finished work looks intentional (not rushed), and we passed inspection without any back-and-forth. Overall it was just? smooth. I?d use them again.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks so much for the kind words - we're glad the clear scope up front, a couple of options when something small came up, and a first-try inspection pass made this panel upgrade feel smooth."

Gridwise did the electrical work tied to our battery install. Stas gave a clear estimate up front, communication was easy, and the work looks neat. Passed inspection without drama. That’s the whole checklist for me.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thank you - a clear estimate, easy communication, neat work, and a drama-free inspection is exactly the checklist we aim for on every job."

We had Gridwise install four recessed lights in our living room and swap out a bunch of old switches for dimmers. Michael did the work and it completely changed the feel of the room. He also helped us pick the right color temperature which I didn't even know was a thing. The whole job took about half a day. Ramsey followed up after to make sure everything was working and we were happy. Nice touch.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks for this! Lighting color temperature is one of those small details that makes a big difference in a living room, so we're glad it changed the feel of the space the way you hoped."

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade - For Business
We used Gridwise for a 200A panel upgrade and I’m really glad we did. The first thing that stood out was how fast they got us from inquiry to estimate. We did a quick video inspection and they came back with a clear number. On install day they showed up when they said they would, walked me through what they were doing, and kept the work area surprisingly clean. The finished panel looks sharp — neat labeling and tidy routing. I’m the person who notices messy workmanship and this was not that. They also handled permits, which saved me a bunch of time. Overall: responsive, organized, and high-quality work.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Really appreciate you calling out the labeling and routing - clean panel work is something our team takes pride in. Glad the video inspection and permit handling saved you some time."

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
Our house is from the 70s and still had the original 100-amp panel. Insurance company was giving us a hard time about it and we couldn't add any circuits for a future EV charger. Enrique and Mark upgraded us to a 200-amp panel. They were here most of the day but kept the workspace clean and walked me through everything in the new panel when they finished. PG&E came out a few days later and reconnected us. Whole process was smoother than expected.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thank you! Older panels can be a headache with insurance, so it's great this one is squared away and ready for an EV charger down the road."

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
Our HVAC company installed a new heat pump but said we needed an electrician for the electrical hookup and a panel upgrade to support it. Stas got us on the schedule within a few days. Enrique did the work - new 40-amp breaker, disconnect box outside, and ran the whip to the unit. He coordinated with the HVAC crew so everything was ready for their startup. No issues at inspection.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks for the review. Coordinating with an HVAC crew so their startup goes smoothly is exactly how we like these jobs to run."

Fixed Generator Installation
Had Gridwise install a transfer switch and inlet box for our portable generator. We lose power a few times a year during wind events and got tired of running extension cords everywhere. Michael handled the install and walked us through exactly how to connect and start the generator when the power goes out. He was patient with all my questions. Permit was pulled and inspection passed first try.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Appreciate this! No more extension cords during wind season, and we're always happy to walk through the startup steps as many times as it takes."

Gridwise handled the electrical component of our solar wiring project. Stas explained what was included and what could change depending on what they found in the panel, which I thought was super nice and thoughtful. On site, Enrique and the crew were calm and methodical. When a small issue popped up, they gave options (with trade-offs) rather than just making us accept the issue. Everything looks clean, and inspection went through without issues. Would def recommend them to friends and fam for any future projects!

Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade
Switched from gas to induction as part of a kitchen remodel. Miguel pulled the old gas line cap and ran a new 50-amp circuit for the range. The panel was on the opposite side of the house so it wasn't a trivial run but he kept everything neat through the crawl space. Countertop guys came the next day and everything fit perfectly. Highly recommend if you're making the switch from gas.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks for the kind words - running a new 50-amp circuit from a panel on the opposite side of the house is never trivial, so we're glad the crawl space work stayed neat and the countertop install went off without a hitch."

Called Gridwise because we bought an older home and the inspector flagged a bunch of stuff - ungrounded outlets, missing smoke detectors, no CO detectors near the bedrooms. Michael knocked it all out in one visit and also installed a whole-house surge protector at the panel which I didn't even know existed. Feeling a lot better about the safety situation now. Fair price too.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Appreciate the review - grounding, smoke and CO detectors, and a whole-house surge protector at the panel is a solid safety package, and we were glad we could clear all of it in one visit."

We hired Gridwise to prep for backup power (subpanel planning + some upgrades). I?m usually skeptical because this topic can turn into a sales pitch fast. It didn?t. Stas was direct about what mattered now vs later, and what choices would actually change cost. The estimate process was simple (video inspection worked fine). Enrique showed up ready to go, knocked it out efficiently, and the install looks clean. The labeling is neat, and the final walk-through was in plain English?not ?electrician speak.? Nothing dramatic happened, which is honestly the best compliment I can give a contractor.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Nothing dramatic happened" might be our favorite compliment yet - we try to be direct about what matters now vs. later so the subpanel and upgrade decisions are clear before anyone starts work."

Just got a hot tub delivered and needed the electrical run to it. Mark and crew came out and installed a 50-amp GFCI breaker and ran conduit along the side of the house to a disconnect near the tub. Looked way cleaner than I expected. Passed inspection and we were soaking that weekend.
Response from Gridwise Electric
"Thanks for having us out - a 50-amp GFCI breaker and a clean conduit run to the disconnect is a quick project when it's planned right, and we're glad it passed inspection in time for the weekend."
