"Rashid did an outstanding work installing the manual transfer switch for my portable generator. Dealing with the old electrical box that my house still has was not easy, but Rashid overcame the challenges, and the transfer switch is fully operational. The installed equipment was thoroughly tested. Rashid’s work ethic is impeccable. I highly recommend hiring Rashid’s company for all your electrical works."

"Fitch Electric installed a stand by generator for my home. They were able to get a generator for me within a few weeks. Generac is running 20 weeks behind so I was happy to be able to have it installed much sooner. The process was smooth and professional. They were available to answer any and all questions that I had, so I was very pleased with their service."

"I encountered a problem, and called ARP Electric to help diagnose and repair. Ahmed was able to come out the same day (!), even waiting for me at my house when my previous appointment ran long (!!). He was able to diagnose the problem almost instantly - and had me up and running immediately thereafter. The issue was actually due to a dumb mistake on my part, but Ahmed went out of his way to put me at ease, and reassure me about how such things could easily happen to anyone (which was very appreciated). Ahmed was personable, very knowledgeable and capable, and was simply a pleasure to meet and work with on this effort. For future electrical work, I'll be looking to hire ARP Electric once again."

"Bought a new electric clothes dryer to replace the old gas dryer. Found that our 220VAC outlet was not working. Gaetaway showed up on time, traced the source of the problem quickly, and repaired it. The technician was courteous and efficient. I will call them again, should the need arise."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Palo Alto, 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.
