"Golden Electric is truly remarkable! We recently underwent a complex ADU electric wiring and main panel upgrade, including adding a meter for the ADU. The process with PG&E and city approvals seemed super complicated, but Golden Electric made it all a breeze. The team navigated through PG&E's requirements effortlessly, ensuring all the approvals were secured without a problem. The project, although lengthy, was a success. I'm impressed by the team's knowledge and their ability to craft solutions tailored to our specific needs. Dont usually give reviews, but this team deserves it for sure! If you're looking for a reliable and knowledgeable electrician, Golden Electric is the way to go. Highly recommended!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesSan Jose Electricians are rated 4.8 out of 5 based on 409 reviews of 409 pros.
