"Matthew upgraded our 100-amp panel to 200 amps and installed a Level 2 Tesla charger the same day. Permit pulled, inspection passed first try. The price matched exactly what was quoted. That kind of integrity is rare to find in a contractor."
"We had a Federal Pacific panel that our insurance company flagged. MAG Electric replaced it quickly, pulled all permits with the city, and we had full documentation to send back to the insurer. Professional from first call to final sign-off."
"MAG Electric handled all the electrical for our commercial tenant improvement on time and on budget. Matthew coordinated directly with our GC. No chasing required. Will absolutely use again for our next project."
"Installed a Level 2 EV charger for our Rivian. Matthew assessed our panel first and was upfront that we needed an upgrade before adding the charger. Quoted both scopes together at a fair price. The job was done in two days, inspection passed, no surprises on the invoice."
"Our 1968 home had aluminum wiring throughout. MAG Electric did a thorough assessment, explained exactly what needed to be done, and completed the COPALUM corrections across the whole house. The work passed inspection and our homeowner's insurance situation improved significantly."
"I called MAG Electric for a Zinsco panel replacement before listing my home. Matthew was honest about the scope, gave me a written quote the same day as the site visit, and finished the job within a week. The buyers' inspector flagged nothing electrical. We closed on schedule."
"We hired MAG Electric for a panel upgrade ahead of a solar installation. They roughed in conduit for future EV charging at the same time, which saved us significantly compared to doing it later. Matthew thought ahead and mentioned it during the quote. Good guy, good work."
"Quick response, honest assessment, fair price. We had a partial outage that two other electricians had looked at without finding the cause. Matthew diagnosed it within 30 minutes. The repair was simple once you knew where to look. Charged what he quoted."
"Installed a Level 2 charger at our vacation rental in Shell Beach. Used weatherproof marine-grade hardware without us even asking. The listing now advertises EV charging and our booking inquiries went up noticeably within the first month."
"MAG Electric installed recessed lighting and smart dimmer switches throughout our kitchen and living room remodel. Every dimmer was spec'd correctly for the LED fixtures. No flickering, no buzzing. Exactly what you want and rarely what you get from random electricians."
"Panel upgrade for a 1970s home in the Colony Park area. Matthew replaced a 100-amp Federal Pacific with a 200-amp Square D, pulled the permit through the City of Atascadero, and had the inspection scheduled and passed within three days of project completion. Clean work."
"We needed a subpanel installed in a detached garage for an ADU we are building on the property. Matthew coordinated with our general contractor directly, showed up when scheduled, and completed the rough-in inspection without any corrections flagged. Will have him back for the final."
