Redwood Electric

Jothi and his team were great. We had a unique project and Jothi was 100% behind the idea. We had designed our own solar power system with the help of a solar supply company. We needed someone to install it and that’s where Redwood Electric came into the picture. This approach was cheaper and far higher quality than the «solar installer companies». Jothi and his team did a fantastic job installing the system. I was hands on from the start so when I told Jothi I would be on the roof too, he welcomed it and his guys were great. I worked on the roofing aspect and they handled the solar gear install side of things. We couldn’t be more happy with the final result! We have a very high quality system installed by a great team. Big Thank You to the Redwood Electric crew!

Jothi and his team are great to work with. We just survived an extremely challenging remodel and he made sure that the electrical portion of the work was NOT challenging. He was solid, calm, reliable, responsive, and responsible throughout. I am happy to give them five stars and would highly recommend them.

I had recessed lighting, dimmer switches, light fixtures, outdoor flood lights and porch lighting work done about 2 years ago. The quality of work was excellent and done in a timely fashion. I am definitely going to use Jothi and his crew again.

Redwood (Jothi Param and his team) finished up a large project for me last week that was done over four days. The job was priced upfront with a clear explanation of both labor and material charges. I had them install new and replacement lighting in six rooms (recessed; track; and sconces). The start of the job needed to be timed with the roofer as new wiring was laid under a new roof. The job went smoothly and everyone was a pleasure to work with. There was one small problem with the placement of a track and that was corrected promptly with a smile. My wife added a small job (45 min) rerouting wiring to a timer from downstairs to upstairs and Jothi included that at no charge. I highly recommend Redwood Electric. You won’t be disappointed. I need to highlight the demeanor of owner Jothi Param — always calm, with a clear, direct approach to problem solving and explanations. The best I’ve ever witnessed.

I needed to have three baseboard heaters installed as well as to have an electrical outlet repaired and up until I called Jothi Param — I had lost hope. It seemed like I would never find any contractor /​electrician who would actually return a call or even show up for a scheduled on-​site estimate but Jothi Param, the owner of Redwood Electric really impressed me.
Aside from promptly return phone calls and scheduling a estimate, Jothi and his crew were punctual, professional, courteous and very respectful of my home. They did a great job knocking out the work, while making sure to clean up any mess from the installation and answering any/​all questions I had. I didn’t feel I was gauged on price as has been the case with other electricians in the past, I was happy to pay for the service I received and would do so again.
There was even an issue with one of the heaters that I suspect was a manufacturer defect, I called Jothi and without any hesitation he returned, tools in hand and fixed it, no questions asked.
Bottom Line– I highly recommend Redwood Electric, Jothi and his crew, for any future electrical work needed, there is no decision to make for me, it will be Redwood Electric!

I am revising my lower review because after some time, Redwood Electric came out and fixed a simple problem with one of the outlets not working that they installed in my garage. Although it took a good while to coordinate with them for the fix, Jothi came out and fixed all the issues with a smile, and I am all set to go. Reading the other reviews on this site, it seems like my experience was an not usual and that the problem is now fixed, I am upping my review.

These guys were very efficient, friendly, courteous and speedy. Really competent and responsive.

Jothi and his team did a great job on several recent electrical jobs at our house recently. We had an old, outdated chandelier replaced in our living room entryway, which has a very high ceiling. It looks great! He also figured out a way to hide all of the ugly wires on our TV, which is placed above a fireplace. Huge improvement. The third job was to install recessed LED lighting in two of our bedrooms that previously had no lighting at all. He did all of this work in one day, so he even knocked a couple hundred dollars estimate since it didn’t take as long as he anticipated. We thought that was very honest. He was also very nice and patient with our 3 year old son, who was very interested in his tools and kept wanting to show him all of his toys and books while he was working, and our crazy German Shepherd who wanted to jump on him. We have a couple of other upcoming projects, so we’ll be calling him again soon!

Replaced my 60 year old subpanel, upgrading my electrical service line and added arc fault interrupters in the new subpanel.
This review is long overdue… it was an all day job, but all went well. They got the permit and coordinated with PG&E and the Concord inspector before and at the end of the job. They arrived about 7:30 a.m. and the electricity was back on at 6:00 p.m. when PG&E was able to come back a little over an hour after the job was finished. Only one issue came up during the job, but was resolved at our mutual satisfaction at no extra cost. Jothi is stress-​free to deal with, and very honest and knowledgeable.
This is one of very few contractors I will keep using and have absolutely no worries about it! They’ll be back this year — two ceiling fans have failed.

Jothi and team were great. I had two electricians come out before Redwood Electric and neither could determine the problem, Redwood worked the issue and not only found my problem they provided several options on how it could be fixed. Also did several light fixture upgrades and all for a very reasonable rate, Very pleased and will call them first next time I need an electrician.

I called them and waited 3 days later getting a call back he left me a message in my machine. I tried to call again and never heard from them again.

Jothi, John, and Steve were very professional, fun to banter with, and extremely patient when we figured out we had to add on a few last minute items to the job. I highly recommend Redwood Electric! I’m already compiling a wish list for more lighting in our household, that is once we more funds available. Great job, Guys!

Love these guys. Jothi the owner, is amazing, he is kind, respectful and honest. He is calm, nothing phases him, not old wiring, not nervous people (me) and he has a quiet zen about him. His team is respectful and they get the job done. I have an older home that has add-on’s and no matter what appeared or at whchanges had to be made he just said «ok» and did the work.
If you need a quality, dependable and kind electrician, this is your team. He was the fifth one I called and the only one that could explain to me what needed to happen in a way that I understood and took the time to answer my questions calmly.
Call them, you won’t be sorry.

No showed for a preset appointment for an estimate and now not answering the phone… no need to say more.

Jothi responded to my call the same day and fixed my circuit breaker issue efficiently and affordably. He was even patient when my kids tried to take all of his tools out of the holder! We’ll contact him again if we have other electric issues.

I hired Redwood Electric to install 4 ceiling fans (with wall switches) and to run some ethernet cabling in our home.
Jothi Param is the owner and it’s obvious he takes great pride in a job well done and highly satisfied customers. Jothi returned my call for a quote promptly and came to my home on time a few days later to give me a quote. He was thorough in checking out the situation and gave me good advice on wall switches he recommended to control my Hunter ceiling fans.
Jothi’s quote was the best and most complete of the three I received and we agreed on a date for the work. He and his crew arrived on time and were thorough, courteous, and highly competent.
Among the many things I’d praise about their work:
— They treated my home with white gloves thoroughly protecting surfaces wherever they worked and cleaning up thoroughly in each area as they finished.
— They worked diligently making sure that things were installed just as I wanted them without me having to chase after them.
— Working all day in my home, they were friendly and polite at all times and happily answered any question or small request I made.
— Though there were challenges fishing wires through some of my walls, but Jothi made sure his crew did things right and assured me that they could do the job without breaking any wall surfaces. He kept his word and my fans and switches look so good you’d think they had been built into the house during its construction.
— They could have just put the ceiling fans up and left it at that, but Jothi and his team even made sure each fan was well balanced and running as smoothly as it could.
When all was done, they made sure I tested and checked every installation to be sure it was to my satisfaction. As the finishing touch, Jothi kept to his quoted price.
You can be sure that I’ll be calling Redwood Electric for any other electrical work I need to do! It’s nice to find a great contractor and know that you can trust them.

Fast, clean, professional, and on time. What more can I say. I will call Johti in the future!

We’ve hired a few electricians over the years, but I won’t use anyone other than Redwood in the future. After some mixed results with other electricians, I called Jothi to install a light and fix a junction box that had mysteriously died. Jothi arrived on time, quickly addressed both issues, and even cleaned up a few issues that other electricians had left behind. I was truly impressed with how quickly and professionally he handled the projects. Cleaning up the other electrician’s mess was just icing on the cake. He’s certainly earned my business in the future.

I had a 12pm appointment to install an electrical outlet in the wall where the TV would be placed. Apparently my husband wasn’t 100% positive on the location, and the geek squad at Best Buy had emailed back at 11:50am with a different measurement on the location. I didn’t get the memo until I was about to write Jothi (silent h) a check after he was finished. He was so gracious– stayed around until I talked it out with my husband, then the geek squad, and offered to stay around and fix it for only $ 25 extra. He’s been in the profession for 15 years, is trustworthy and kind. Highly recommend.

Very competent. Courteous; always on time, worked quietly, and never left a mess behind. Friendly, and welcomed my input. Affordable. They stand behind their work. I can recommend them without hesitation.
