A Local Electrician Focused on Residential Homes — Not One-Size-Fits-All Work

Dollens Electric works with homeowners across San Jose and Santa Clara County who want their electrical work done carefully, correctly, and with clear communication.

Many of the homes we service were built before today’s electrical demands were common. Whether it’s aging wiring, a panel that’s reached its limit, or new loads from EV chargers and remodels, we focus on understanding how your home is wired — not just fixing symptoms.

When you call us, you’ll speak with a licensed electrician who explains what we find, what matters, and what doesn’t. No pressure, no confusion — just straightforward guidance so you can make informed decisions about your home.

What homeowners appreciate about working with us:

  • Residential-only electrical work

  • Clear explanations before any work begins

  • Clean, respectful service inside your home

  • Code-compliant solutions built to last

Electrical Services Built Around How Homes Actually Age

Every home is different — especially in San Jose and across Santa Clara County, where housing styles and electrical systems vary widely.

Instead of pushing one-size-fits-all solutions, we start by understanding how your home is wired today, how it’s being used, and where it may need attention as electrical demand changes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Knowledgeable, effective, and efficient !! Excellent communication and professional! Highly recommend! Jason seemed to know the possible cause for the problem when I told him that the parts of the house were losing power gradually, and he was right!! He came out on the same day and fixed the problem (burnt crimp in junction box in the garage) within an hour!! Excellent!
