I want to thank Steve Guerra with all of the great work he did mounting my new 77" TV. He was able to come out the next day after we had talked about hanging my new TV. Steve and his co-worker were able to remove my old 70" plasma (which weighs a ton) and repositioned the existing TV mount so the new one would be centered above my fireplace wall perfectly. They were in and out in under an hour. They even carried my old plasma to my truck for disposal. I have his contact info saved because I'm sure I will be using his services in the near future.

Owners came out, took pictures, explained all the nuances needs permits, working with pg&e, etc. Provided a reasonable quote, and within a week started the upgrade project . They had 3 to 4 mam crew work two straight days and Rebecca coordinated all the permits and inspe lions, painless and high quality work.

Hire Steve! I just purchased a new home, I needed a number of things done. Ceiling fan install, tv mounted as close to the wall as possible, Ethernet cables to the tv and an EV plug in the garage. I added a sound bar last minute as well. I had a crazy busy weekend and I still had not moved into my home. Steve got all of this done on a weekend, I gave him access to my home through a smart lock. He kept in contact with me all weekend until he finished. He even went to Best Buy to pick my sound bar up! I will be hiring him in the future. I trust him 100%. Thanks Steve!

I am keeping this electrician! He installed 3 exterior lights that I thought I was going to do myself-haha! Anyways, he was polite, honest about cost and process. It’s hard to find people you think you can trust out there these days. Thank you and stay in business!

We hired Steve to install over 20 recessed lights inside our home and after the job was completed we quickly realized that we been living in the dark for the last few years. LOL! It really does feel like a totally new space and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Steve and his crew got the job done better than I could have ever imagined. During the initial evaluation, We allowed Steve to make his suggestions on how many lights we should install, the placement, etc. After we received the quote it was priced very fair for this type of job according to my prior research so we went ahead and went with it! As a business owner myself I have very high standards when it comes to hiring someone for a job, as well as the work they do, and, the customer service they provide. Steve graciously met those standards with flying colors. He was professional, friendly, and of course did what he said he was going to do. Steve if your reading this keep doing what you’re doing and how you are doing it! Also, Thank You to you and your team!

I would highly recommend American electric! I’m pretty particular in how I like things done. They we’re easy to communicate with and got the job done in timely fashion.They mounted our TVs in our house giving our rooms a seamless look.

Steve and his team were absolutely amazing. From the consult, to the walk-thru, to the finishing touches—this company deserves five stars and more. During the walk-thru, I talked to Steve about what I had envisioned for the projects I wanted done throughout my home. Not only did he work with my ideas, on top of that, he gave me different options to choose from. I love that! Steve is all about customer satisfaction. With my OCD and obsession with aesthetics, he and his team met every one of my standards. Steve was so quick to respond to all my questions and concerns. He and his team arrived on time—ready to go, and finished in such a timely manner. In the midst of this pandemic, Steve and his team worked safely utilizing face masks and shoe booties—I was so impressed! I look forward to working with this company again. Thank you so much, Steve! 🤗
