Three completed projectsWe have had Dollens complete 3 projects for us. The first was a field solar installation. The sale was professionl and accurate..no unexpected additional charges were incurred. The project was completed on schedule and very well done..We are really enjoying paying only a minimal amount for electric service. We were so happy with this company that when we decided to do a kitchen remodel (complete) and then upgrade our old and faulty electrical panel we again had Dollens perform the work. They completed the upgrades we needed in a timely, courteous manner and answered all our questions and concerns. It is truely a pleasure working with this company and their staff was great.

Josh & Elijah replaced our electrical panel. They were both professional & answered any questions I had. Their work area was cleaned after they were done....

The crew (Josh + Elijah) was excellent, very smart and thorough in identifying and fixing the issues, which included problems due to water damage, as well as poor previous installations. They also fixed my misbehaving ceiling fan, and installed a tricky fixture. They were super courteous, professional, and transparent about the cost of parts and labor. No wonder Dollens is the highest rated in the Bay Area. Will use again with pleasure when needed, abd recommend highly!

We recently bought a vehicle and I contacted Jason and he came right away. The next day his son Josh, cousin Elijah, and their friend came by to install our 240 volt outlet with precision and quality. I would go to them again.

We had a great experience with Dollens Electric—they helped us replace old wiring, install new outlets, and install bathroom fans in our home (including adding the vents through the roof). They were very personable and easy to talk to, and it was easy to see that they put a lot of care into their work. We're looking forward to working with them again soon!

This is the second time we've used Dollens, first being when they upgraded the wiring to the entire house. This time they installed an isolated circuit in our garage and some can lighting. Even though it was a smaller job, they treated it just as importantly as the bigger job.They answered all our questions, let us know and talk through our options and didn't do any additional work without letting us know and approve the price difference for our requests, rather than telling us at the end of the job.A+ work!

We had a ceiling fixture out. Jason came on out and diagnosed the problem and got it repaired very promptly. Courteous and friendly.

Update 9/2020 - Upgraded some thermostat wiring for me with a difficult routing. Professional and quick.Update - Jason and Josh again came through for me. In the midst of a heat wave, they were able to come to the other end of the county and fix an electrical problem at my mother's house. Got the outlets for the portable AC and lift chair back working and made the wiring safer to boot.Original - Could not ask for better. Jason installed a new 40 amp circuit and an EVo charger for our car. (No more slow 110 charging. Yeah!) While working in our breaker panel he noted a dangerous situation left by a previous contractor who upgraded our air conditioning.(Side note kind of disappointing the inspector didn't notice that the other contractor put in a bigger breaker on a wire that was too small. Luckily the wire insulation had just started to bubble and it didn't catch fire.)Within a week they were able to fit us in to replace the faulty circuit as well as rewire our garage lighting to eliminate some creative but scary runs of extension cords and re-purposed outlets. Now I have bright lights and when I look up, I don't see wires draped everywhere.We connected with Jason of Dollens Electric through our equally excellent general contractor Dan Mackey. (Who by the way had nothing to do with the faulty circuit or the creative garage lighting.)Lastly a thank you to Jason's son Josh who got to do the crawling under the house.

I had Dollens come out to bid on installing a standby generator and they were friendly, on time, and professional. They walked me through options, explained what they were looking out and why and asked lots of follow up questions to make sure i was getting a bid for everything i wanted and needed.

These guys are the best. Very knowledgeable when troubleshooting old problems from less capable electricians who were here for prior owners. Installed a new outlet in my hardwood floor that looks beautiful along with solving our "where to put the lamp" problem. Lastly wired up a cat6 network allowing us to move our router/hub into a closet off my desk.Call/use them; you won't be sorry.

Jason, Josh, and Elijah were prompt, considerate, professional, trustworthy, and kind. The work for our recessed lighting project was done quickly and with care, precision, and high quality. Jason was very thorough in explaining what they had done and why. I would have no reservations with them and highly recommend them!

My youngest son & his large family (5 kids including a set of twins) are visiting and staying the night. More family to arrive tomorrow for the holidays. We were getting ready for dinner so people were going to use the bathrooms. When they did there was no lights or electricity in either bathroom. In panic I called one electrical company after another only to receive either no answer or a voicemail. Found Dollens on Angie's List and gave them a call. Josephine answered, listened to my situation, and walked me thru some possibilities. Did not work. Josephine called a supervisor at a site and talked to him. Called me back with more possibilities of which one worked. A simple one. Josephine was emphatic about not sending out an electrician if it was an easy fix. They could have easily sent an electrician out and charged an emergency fee and perhaps a holiday fee but they helped me at no charge. Man do we need more people like this. Thanks Dollens, thanks Josephine, & thanks to the supervisor. Cannot recommend or praise them enough!

Dollens Electric did a great job in our home installing fans, fan switches and an electric car charger in the garage. Work was great and rates were reasonable. Highly recommend them!

DEC rewired my garage and several outside switches and fixtures. DEC fixed a cobbled up mess that did not meet code. I have complete confidence in their knowledge and ability, and in the work they did. It was comprehensive, met code, is clean and well laid out and everything works for the first time since we moved in. I would recommend DEC to anyone for any size job, with no reservation. I intend to use DEC again to fix more things that were not done properly in the past. Jason and Brian worked hard and smart. Their class of work/knowledge is rare and hard to find these days. I use them with confidence in the quality and professionalism! !

As an elderly person living in a 50 + year old house I had a lot of concerns. I called many electrical companies and I left many messages but I got a quick call pick up when I called Dollens Electric. I explained my concerns to the polite person who answered my call and she assured me that she would have an electrician call me right back. Within an hour I received a call back and within a few hours I got a lovely gentlemen named Jason who came to my rescue. He listens to all my concerns and explained things to me so I could understand them. Mr. Dollens as I learned later was very knowledgeable in the field and with ease explained everything. Then he did some testing and let me know the areas of concern but that I was in no danger as I was so concerned about fire. Once we arrived at the stage of contracting Dollens Electric I was very satisfied with what it was going to cost me and even more satisfied with the work. I will definitely call on Dollens Electric and recommend them to all my family and friends.

Unlike other companies that claim to use internet Dollens Electric actually replied to email available appointment dates not phone number to call to set up date and time. Once estimate was done job was done under 4 hours with almost no interruption to normal household life. They had to turn pawer off for a min or two but that was about it. Very impressed.

Susan Steffens

Dollens Electric did an excellent job finding & installing a new solar attic fan for me. They showed me online the fan they had selected, demonstrated how it ran before installing it & put it in the opening in my gable in 45 minutes. They did not try to sell me things I did not want. I did not feel pressured to buy other things from them. If I have other electrical work I will definitely call them.
