After Dollens Electric replaced my service panel, I found I couldn't open the panel cover. The culprit was stucco left all over the hinges. I brought this to Jason’s attention, and he promised to send someone out to fix it, but no one ever showed up. I sent another message to follow up and was completely ignored. Very disappointed in the lack of communication and follow-through.
Response from the owner:Leon, we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience. We do want to respectfully clarify that our records show multiple communications throughout the project, scheduled appointments, dispatch notifications, and return visits to the property. After the concern about the panel cover was brought to our attention, we did review the panel on-site, and our technician was able to open the panel cover and show that the door was operational. Dollens Electric completed the electrical panel replacement. The stucco/finish work around the panel was handled by a separate trade, as we do not perform stucco work in-house. From what was reviewed, the concern appeared to be related to finish material around the panel area rather than the electrical installation itself. That said, we understand that the panel cover should be accessible and easy to use, and we never want a customer to feel unresolved. We are happy to review the concern again and help coordinate the appropriate next step if needed.

Dollens Electric exceeded my expectations from start to finish. I called them out to diagnose an issue with my solar inverter that was throwing an error code, and Josh was the technician who handled everything. He quickly identified that one of the electronic boards in the inverter had failed. What really stood out was that he didn’t stop there—he worked directly with the solar inverter manufacturer to secure replacement parts, which I honestly assumed would not be covered under warranty. Josh was upfront about the extended wait time for solar inverter parts, which I appreciated. A few weeks later, he came back—not with just the replacement board, but with a completely brand new inverter that the manufacturer had sent out. He explained that the cost would be slightly higher due to the full inverter installation, but I was more than happy with that outcome considering the upgrade. The level of dedication and professionalism was impressive. Josh completed the solar inverter installation in the pouring rain and even had to return for a follow-up visit when the system didn’t immediately come online. Again, he was out there troubleshooting in the rain without hesitation. On his final visit, he went a step further and checked the solar panel system performance, making sure we were getting proper energy output and educating me on what to watch for with our 10-year-old solar panels. If you’re looking for a reliable electrician, solar inverter repair, or solar system maintenance, I highly recommend Dollens Electric. Josh went above and beyond every step of the way, and it’s rare to find that level of service and commitment. As a bonus, I’d recommend Josh specifically—not just because we share the same name, but because he truly delivered exceptional customer service and expertise.
Response from the owner:We sincerely appreciate your outstanding review and the perfect rating. It is gratifying to learn that our technician, Josh, provided the high standard of service you describe. Our aim is to deliver solutions that meet and surpass expectations, including ensuring effective communication and thorough follow-up. We are committed to enduring customer satisfaction and are grateful for your recognition of the effort put in by our team. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to assisting you with any future electrical or solar needs.

Can't say enough great things about this team! We were referred to them by a friend whose Contact for them in her phone says "My Awesome Electricians" - very true! The entire team, from the office to the junior techs are easy to work with. Unlike many contractors, they communicate clearly and often, about schedule, price, work to be done. And best of all they do EXCELLENT work! They replaced our Zinsco panel which was preventing us from getting homeowners insurance. Everything went smoothly: scheduling, work, inspection and they even have a stucco guy who works with them to do stucco repair when it's all done (he was good too!). Not sure about what happened with the 1-star reviews they received on Yelp because this local family owned business is well run, honest and very talented. They are very skilled and no, not cheap, but they charge a fair price--we got several quotes and they were all similar. Want it done right the first time? These are the guys to hire. Thank you Jason, Josh, Elijah, Brian and Josephine - you're now in our contact list as My Awesome Electrician too!
Response from the owner:We are truly grateful for your magnificent feedback and are delighted to learn about your positive experience with our team.

Joshua came soon after calling to make an appointment, expeditiously assessed the problem with the circuit breaker, and added a surge protector in the main panel. Part of the problem was needed to be remedied by PG&E, and he was able to ascertain their service in the afternoon. All in all, the matter was quickly resolved.
Response from the owner:We sincerely appreciate your wonderful feedback and are pleased to know about your positive experience with Joshua.
