“Jim has installed a car charger, pendant lights, and recently a surge breaker. I moved into my community in 2022 and was looking for an electrician for several projects. I called about 10 that I found online and met with five at my home for quoting out the projects. Jim stuck out because he was very knowledgeable, honest, and reasonable with his quotes. Cheapest isn’t always the best way to go and contractors sometimes quote extremely high because of your zip code. Jim honestly assessed the projects and priced accordingly to difficulty and hours needed. 1st. Choice Electric Service is my 1st. CHOICE for my electrical and solar needs.”

“I'm a busy local Realtor in Vallejo/Benicia. Besides my General Contractor, 1st Choice Electric is my favorite vendor. Jim is super professional, always on time, so easy to work with and very reasonably priced. He is great with my clients (they call me and rave about him!) and, he is just a really good person. I cannot recommend this company any higher!”

“We used 1st Choice Electric and couldn't be more pleased. We had power out in several rooms. Turned out to be an outlet that was improperly installed. He informed us that our panel was recalled and could create a fire. I researched it and he was right. Came back and replaced the panel under his estimated amount. Jim is a great guy. His prices were very fair. In fact, I recommended him to a neighbor who was equally happy with the service. I trust Jim and wouldn't hesitate to use or recommend him in the future.”

“Jim and his team are top notch! They literally go above and beyond to make sure the job is done right and that we’re happy with the results every single time we work with them. And his rates are fair and reasonable. He helped us on many jobs. From rewiring our attic and replacing our panel and installing and setting up our hot tub. And Jim and his team are fast, responsive, friendly and he’s just a great guy all around. Although Jim is my electrician, he feels more like a good friend that I can trust. If you’re considering hiring an electrician, you can’t go wrong with Jim and his team and I highly recommend him!”

“I am a returning customer. This time, I needed to have my kitchen lights replaced with LED. Among the three other quotes that I received, Jim’s was the most reasonable. Also, he’s quick to respond and is open to questions. He is transparent and very professional. I highly recommend Jim and his company for any electrical work that anyone might have!”

“Jim and Clayton are amazing! I had a potentially hazardous situation at my business and Jim responded to it very quickly. They were able to diagnose our panel problems and repaired it faster than anticipated. Their expertise and professionalism were top-notch, and they made sure to keep me in the loop throughout the entire repair process. Their pricing was transparent and very fair. Without a doubt, I highly recommend 1st Choice Electric – they are definitely my go-to electricians.”

“Jim was referred to me by a close friend (she had hired him to help restore her beautiful old craftsman). I could not have been happier with the work he did. We needed a total rewiring of our home, and he did an outstanding job. He is incredibly skilled, thoughtful and communicative. I will only ever use 1st Choice Electric from here on out. You cannot find a better electrician out there.”

“1st Choice Electric installed a surge protector for my solar panels on short notice. Jim notified me a time he would come by and he arrived on time. He did a great job installing and explaining where it would be located. Thank you so much!”

“I chose 1st Choice Electric Service to change my old kitchen lights into LED lights and never got disappointed!Jim did an excellent job and it was great value too!I highly recommend 1st Choice Electric Service for any electrical service you might need.”
