VC Elec

I have had VC out three times now. They are excellent. fixed some tricky problems with GFCI outlets, two separate circuit runs, one for a mounted microwave and another for garage freezer. They are easy to work with and can explain exactly what is needed, they caught my contractor making a major electrical mistake that would have left me blowing circuits and needing to cut into a brand new kitchen in the future. Will use them again.

I called Victor during the Christmas week (2015) to see if he was available to squeeze us in on short notice for a kitchen rewire job. He and his crew showed up on December 24^th and did a fantastic job in rewiring my entire kitchen. When it was time for him to return and finish the job, he was there within a week.
I have called Victor a couple of times to ask him questions and if he does not answer the phone right away, he gets back to you in a reasonable amount of time.
Victor and his crew are very professional and do great work. I would highly recommend him for your residential electrical needs.

Called them at 11:00 am about the GFCI outlet (not functioning) that the water heater is plugged into, they came out that day as soon as possible, jumped on it, fixed it in less than 5 mins, excellent customer service, in Dublin, can’t beat it! Water heater now running, happy wife, happy life!

Victor came out to help us with an installation job. What a great guy. Very knowledgeable, well rounded, and pleasant to talk with on many subjects. He really knew what he was doing (with so many years of experience under his belt) and was able to complete the work in short order to our total satisfaction. Would not hesitate to recommend Victor and his team, they’re solid.

I can’t praise Victor and his team enough. We moved to Moraga to an older home and needed a lot of electrical upgrades, wiring, and replacement of light fixtures. Victor gave us an itemized estimate, but ended up doing all these little things without extra charges. While we were doing our reno, when he was around he would help us out with little tasks and making sure the other contractors were doing the right thing. He’s a stickler for perfection and we think of him as a friend. Definitely recommend him — if you can book him because he’s so busy!

I came in contact with VC Electric through my Contractor when I was doing the buildout for my new gym, 9Round Pleasanton. The lights in my unit were not working properly and I needed to replace the transformer. I also had him install my Emergency Exit signs and do some work to power my signage for the outside of my gym.
Working with Victor (the owner) and his crew was a smooth process. He is personable and a real pleasure to work with because he shows up and gets things done right the first time. Victor always answered my phone calls, which is not as common these days as you would think, and worked hard to fit my jobs into his busy schedule.
I will continue to confidently use VC Electric for all my electrical needs!

Just had my 2^nd 240 outlet installed in my garage by Victor. This one was more complex since he needed to install a sub-​panel on one side of the garage and run the wire to the other side of the garage where the outlet was going to be installed (2 electric cars in the garage-​1 outlet for each). Gave me a very reasonable estimate, showed up as promised Saturday morning, completed the job in 4 hours, and kept my garage clean. He also pointed out how Solar City did not properly seal their wire and as a result water was leaking into the wall. Victor is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, very trustworthy, and highly recommended.

I just got the old electrical fuse panel replaced to new circuit breaker panel from Victor in my residential property. Victor is master in his electrical profession. He and his crew did the panel replacement very wisely and perfectly. He was on time. I ‘ll certainly recommend his electrical services. Keep it up !!

We used Victor for Tesla charging station installation. Our experience was terrific. We called Victor and he immediately gave us a very competitive quote, came over the very next day and completed the installation we good workmanship. Victor is very nice person himself, very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and approachable. We have tried several electricians before and Victor was simply outstanding.

We lost power to half of our house on a weekend. Called VC Electric first thing Monday morning (7:30am) and Vic personally came to investigate by 10am. He was thorough and found that the issue was from PG&E’s transformer to our house. Vic called PG&E himself, using his «secret» contractor phone number, spoke to /​explained all to the tele-​service person, casually dropped the name of that guy’s manager (Vic knew him after 30 years in business), and PG&E immediately dispatched a crew. Meanwhile, Vic explained the work PG&E would do, the best and worst-​case scenarios (in the end it was best-​case and PG&E didn’t need to dig-​up our driveway to get at cables 4 feet below ground), and offered help if things didn’t work out properly. Vic was professional, knowledgeable, available quickly, responded personally. Great service highly recommended.

I had VC Electric originally come out to my house to ground several outlets in my office, as the old 1960s wiring did not have ground wires in the Romex. Victor gave me a good estimate over the phone, then we agreed on a time for him and his crew to come out; Victor was slammed with work, but he agreed to squeeze me in.
When he arrived, Victor discovered that my house has those old awful metal wall boxes, which was going to require tearing my drywall apart to redo. He suggested running a new circuit instead, since my office is less than 10 feet from the main service panel and the labor cost to ground or to run new wire was the same. He also suggested running two four outlets per wall, rather than two, since the price for labor was the same. Since there was no significant price difference for 15A or 20A Romex, I had him run a 20A circuit for the new outlets. Now I have six 20A outlets, rather than 3. Very useful for a home office with lots of computers. Room to expand later!
Victor and his crew worked fast, and kept my house clean during and after. They installed tamper-​resistant outlets, which Milpitas requires for new work in bedrooms. The outlets are installed flush and don’t move around at all. Good installation.
Thanks Victor and crew for doing a prompt, professional install. Your suggesting better ways to do the job ended up saving me money and will save frustration in future.

Victor is the perfect electrician who is knowledgeable and will explain you in detail on the work.
He is very prompt in returning the calls.
I would for sure recommend him.

Victor and his crew are absolutely amazing! We hired Victor to redo our electricity panels and everything was done in a few days, talk about efficiency! During the estimate, Victor toured the house and told me everything that was wrong with the wires, circuits, panels, etc., even 3 other electricians who came by did not mention anything at all besides me pointing at the electric panels that I know are a real concern. His price is very fair, in fact, it’s even cheaper than some of the other local electricians who came by for an estimate.
The overall work and finish was absolutely thorough and superb. My wife and I loved everything that had been done. We loved and feel so confident with Victor’s service so much that we used him to do a few more smaller projects throughout the house.
Rest assured that whenever we have any electricity problems that need to be worked on, VC Electric will be our first and only stop!

We have worked with Victor twice and both times he was fantastic. He worked on a big project for our gazebo and it went off without a hitch. Today I called him early in the morning with a problem and he came right over and fixed it immediately even though it needed more work than I had previously thought. He is a gentleman and a pleasure to work with.

Vic just took care of our electric problem. Called him today, came in the afternoon, fixed the problem. No fuss whatsoever. Highly recommended.

This is exactly why we glean what we can from Unilocal and make a decision based on the research. In this case, the system worked and I couldn’t have asked for the great result. Victor, the owner of the company, responded to my phone calls and was very accommodating with making an appointment.
Victor came out today, examined the problem and gave me a very reasonable bid. Frankly, some tradesmen and professionals would have exploited the situation and could have guessed that I seriously needed their service and charged a dramatic amount. Victor was very reasonable and honest in what his work would involve. His skill level could easily command more but we are talking about a professional that takes his business seriously and appreciates the business.
I highly recommend VC Elec and trust that anyone else needing this type of service would be extremely satisfied.

I found Victor on Unilocal.I had a few electrical projects around the house including installing a chandelier, adding a electrical outlet for a fridge and a towel warmer and installing a security camera. Victor came over the same day to give me an estimate and based on my research it was very fair. I scheduled Victor for the work, he showed up on time and was prepared. A few things that stood out to me:
1. He explains everything he is doing, in detail. This is great because I learned a lot about the do’s and don’t of electrical work.
2. He is very personable and friendly.
3. He knows what he’s doing. Since he works with both residential and commercial clients, he can quickly solve electrical problems.
4. Takes his to time to do the job right. He does’t cut corners. Uses good quality materials and spends the time to make sure the installation is perfect.
All around great experience with VC electric, will be hiring him again for other projects.

Victor is on time and finished the work. Placed a Outside electrical outlet to connect my water purifier in the side yard.
will call him again for any electrical work.

Called Victor in the morning today and he was over in the afternoon; finished the work and they were done in 2 hours straight. Great value for the money and good workmanship. Gave good advice at every step and was very accommodating of my requests.
I needed my car’s charging station to be installed in the garage and he had advised me earlier on how to go about getting the permits, etc. When I’d finished all the preparatory work, getting permits and buying the charging station, Victor and his crew showed up promptly on time. Very professional, they went right to work, finished cutting through the wall where needed and wired up the outlets exactly where I wanted them.

Had Victor install Tesla HPWC on a 100 amp breaker along with an additional 14 – 50 outlet on its own 50 amp breaker. Huge diff between him and various other electricians. He was thorough in reading the main panel specs, looking at the existing wiring, and measuring out the distances needed for the wiring and conduit. In the end, his price was in the low-​mid range of the other 3 quotes I got.
Very pleased with the service and price!
