Dan was great. He did a good job investigating and upgrading our old, funky wiring (2024)Update: Bingo electric saved the day for us again, good communication, professional, knowledgeable (2025) Less

Dan (company owner) conducted the quote. He showed up on time, was dressed professionally, and conducted his work in a professional manner... All behaviors I expect from a Marine Corps veteran like him!I have had bad experiences with contractors in the past, so I was more than pleased with Dan's skillset, timeliness, and the fact that he didn't overcharge us! I strongly recommend this company any time you need an electrician. Less

I highly recommend Bingo Electric. Daniel was very helpful and communicative throughout our job. He was also incredibly thorough and mindful of the details. I’ve already recommended him to a family member! Less

I’ve known Daniel for 5 or 6 years now. He’s an extremely competent and efficient electrician. I’ve also found that if I need help quickly, he gets here quickly. I really appreciate that. Happy to leave a positive review for Bingo Electric! Less

I have had Dan install a 220 line to charge my EV. He cleverly ran the line inside my garage and placed it proximal to the garage door so I could charge my vehicle either while in the garage or outside. I had to install an external remote shutoff valve that required a constant power supply. No outlet was proximal to the MOEN device. He was able to create an external outlet by tapping into an existing internal garage outlet. In both cases he was able to problem solve and design the best solutions to my needs. Great at explaining why and what he suggests. Strength is working with unique situations. Charges a fair price and does quality work. Less

Daniel is great, he has great customer service and does all the small things right. Daniel was punctual and communicated clearly on what was needed for the job. I had a new circuit added to charge my EV. Daniel ensured that it was not only cost effective, but also aesthetically appealing. Less

If you are looking for a professional electrician, then call Daniel at Bingo Electric. I called to schedule an appointment for an issue with a circuit breaker. He arrived on time and diagnosed/resolved the issue in no time. Less

Daniel knows what he is doing! I am a repeat customer, and I will request his service again. In addition, he is a dog whisperer in case you have a K9 family member. Less

Daniel did a wonderful job at fixing the issue on my water system. Not every electrician would be that eager to work on a water system problem. Thaks so much, Daniel, on a job well done. Less

1st time I've used Bingo Elect. Daniel was responsive & flexible in his scheduling to get to my job. Did a great job at a very reasonable price. Will definitely use him again. Less

Daniel is a true professional. I give him 5 + stars on communication and problem solving skills. I got what I wanted and asked for despite the problems of an old house wired weirdly that other electricians had given up on. He knows what he’s doing. He is a great find!!! Less

Bingo! They showed up on time, worked with us to develop a plan, then executed on the plan in a timely manner. All for a fair and transparent price. Couldn't be happier with Daniel and his company. Less

Bingo Electric is definitely a company I recommend. Dan is awesome, he listens super well to the problem that needs to be taken care of and then does a really good job delivering the final product. All that is done through his super easy process that makes you feel safe when working with him. Thank you Dan, I truly hope that other people will use your services. Less

Dan responded within minutes to my inquiry on a Sunday and was there first thing Monday morning. He figured out the issue in minutes, and it was all fixed in an hour. I would especially recommend Dan for Santa Cruz montain residents. His service includes this area while many other electricians won't come up to mountain residents. Very good experience. Less

Dan is a great guy and an even better electrician. I live up in the hills off highway 17 and it's almost impossible to get good help when my partner and I really need it. Not with Dan. He's friendly, knowledgeable, and quick with his services. Not to mention a fair price for excellent work. I'm sure this won't be our last job with Dan. Far from it, in fact. Bottom line: I would HIGHLY recommend Bingo Electric as your go-to for all your electrical needs. And Dan, if you're reading this review, THANK YOU AGAIN. Less

My smoke detector had been on the fritz for weeks nothing was working, switched out the batteries held down the reset button, accidentally pulled it out from the ceiling in the process...oops. It was hanging by its wires, literally, and the beeping began incorporating into our nightmares. I reached out to a company, they had no immediate availability. Someone recommended Bingo on Nextdoor tried them next. The owner, Daniel not only texted me back right away, but set up a time way after business hours and came right out the next morning. He's so warm and friendly but more importantly super trustworthy. The incessant beeping wouldn't stop, went up in our crawl space, went way above and beyond to troubleshoot what the issue was, made 2 trips to the store to switch out the smoke detectors for a better brand and didn't leave until the house was beep free. Highly recommend Bingo Electric if you're ever in need of an electrician, thank you Daniel!! The house is so nice and quiet I could cry haha. Less

Bingo Electric recently assisted with a Tesla charger install (and was kind enough to also look at a dimmer switch that was giving us issues). Daniel is hyper responsive, honest and friendly, and he does excellent work. Bingo's prices are competitive, and the value of working with Bingo is evident in the time and care spent ensuring the work is great. We won't hesitate to call Daniel with any future electrician needs. Less

Dan did a great job troubleshooting my faulty outlet. It was not a simple problem, but he hung in there, tracked down the problem, and re-worked the wiring to fix the problem and to ensure that it does not recur. Dan was upfront about the cost and stuck with his commit. No surprises and a nice job. Less

Dan is an adroit troubleshooter. Dan has RARE SKILL and is why we gladly hired him. He knew where to look for the problem with our wiring, showed me the effect, the problem wiring, the indication with the tester, and the fix - ALL IN 5 MINUTES!!! We did have someone else scheduled later that week, but when that company scheduled 4 hrs and 2 techs, without knowing where the problem was, I felt better going with Dan. Very glad we did!He's humble, professional, personal, timely, and kind! He has great character and skill! The PRICE was very reasonable, too! Less

Daniel is the owner and operator of bingo Electric. He is very straightforward, as well as meticulous in ensuring that he knows what the issues are by offering a troubleshooting fee. I had made a list of the foible that I wanted to have addressed. I had contacted him because of an outstanding review by one of my dear friends, who had used him. Suzanne had raved on about him so I asked him to come out to my place to check my electrical issues out. He made certain that I knew what the cost to diagnose was and made a date two days in advance to come out and check it all out. Because I am immunocompromised, I always insist on workmen wearing a mask. no problem whatsoever. Most of the things that I needed, they had checked out, required very little action on his part. He gave me great advice on how to accomplish those things that I wanted to without having to spend any money on it. But those things that were absolutely necessary were dealt with very quickly and efficiently. He had all the tools necessary to be successful. He estimated about the amount of time that he would be here, but it wasn't about the time. It was about getting the job done, right ! He did not charge by hours, but by his initial estimation. And then some stuff he wouldn't charge me for because it wasn't a big deal at all.. Efficient, prompt, polite, experienced and knowledgeable, and on top of that he is a veteran. Winner, winner, chicken dinner, I can now see in places I wasn't able to before.! Bingo Electric /Daniel will be my electrician in the future as well in the event I have anything he hasn't already fixed! Less

Daniel is awesome! Very straightforward guy and positive personality. He's got lots of experience and willing to help you over the phone anytime. He called me right away when I called for an electric problem in my bathroom fan. He will let you know upfront if it will cost you and I really appreciate the value he brings to the neighborhood with his skills. Less

Daniel provided a 5-star service, nothing but excellence! I had a flickering ceiling LED light fixture in the bedroom, and I couldn't determine if the light fixture or the dimmer switch on the wall was the issue. Daniel confidently said, "I'll give you the answer." He sure figured out what was wrong and fixed the dimmer switch. A ceiling light fixture in my daughter's bedroom was wobbly when using the fan after hitting it with a pillow during a pillow fight. I thought the only way to fix this was to buy a new light fixture with a fan and install it; however, Daniel repaired the wobbly fan and saved us money! Daniel is honest, friendly, sincere, and 100% on the customers' side. He suggests the best solution that is the best fit for the client. In my case, his solutions saved me hundreds of dollars. I highly recommend hiring BINGO Electric!!! Less

I called on a Sunday morning because all of the outlets on one of the circuits in the house stopped working the night before and I knew it wasn't the breaker. I thought the GFCI receptacle might need replacing. Dan got back to me within about an hour and was at the house 30 minutes later. He established that the problem was not the GFCI receptacle but rather that there was a broken wire between the electric panel and the rest of the circuit and quoted me a fair price for the fix. He held to that price even though running a new wire ended up being substantially more challenging than expected. I really appreciated his dedication to getting the job done. The circuit now works as it is supposed to and he's gone above and beyond to provide exceptional service and make sure I am happy with the final product. I'll happily call him again if I need an electrician in the future. Less

Dan came to our house after we'd lost power. He was able to resolve the problem efficiently, going the extra mile and staying long to see the fix through in one day. Moreover he was friendly, straightforward, and communicative. Highly recommended--we'll call him again the next time any electrical issues come up. Less

Great customer service, Gave no BS, found the problem troubleshoot the problem all within quote. Found that it was not a short it was a double feed, it was a quick fix provided a great explanation on the issue and the root cause of the problem. Provided me with a easy fix that saved me a lot of money. Got my lights to turn on again and stopped my breaker from tripping...Please give this guy a call..we'll worth it. Less

Responsive, prompt, honest, careful, clean, friendly, and reasonably priced. Couldn't ask for anything more. My master bedroom ceiling fan stopped working, so my home warranty company sent out a different electrician to see what was wrong. They spent 10 minutes and said it was a fan issue that wasn't covered by the warranty. As a result, I purchased a new fan and installed it myseIf, only to find out that the new one didn't work either. I called Bingo Electric to have them do the work to figure out whether I had an issue with the circuit or something else was going on. Daniel responded to my inquiry within 15 minutes, scheduled to come out at 9am the next working day, arrived at 8:55am, crawled my ceiling to determine it was a issue with power getting to the ceiling fixture, fixed the issue, finished installing my fan, cleaned after himself, and was gone by 9:35. Other than when he was in my ceiling, we had a pleasant conversation the entire time (he's a USMC veteran with a post-Marines business degree from San Jose State and has a contractors license). He charged me what he quoted (quite reasonable price) and on the way out the door, took a few minutes to explain to me what I needed to do to install a video doorbell and said if I wasn't comfortable at any point in that project to give him a call and he'd come over and take care of it. I now have a new go-to electrician. Less

After a few years bouncing between electricians who were unreliable, selectively responsive, or not very good, we lucked out and found Dan. Since then, Dan has done a bunch of work for us on two properties with older electricals. Dan is: very reliable; very knowledgeable; thoughtful; an excellent communicator; super quick at his work (but thorough); smart. Most importantly, stuff works reliably after Dan has fixed it up. The work for us has included landscape lighting, outdoor lighting, removing ceiling fans, wiring water heaters, and (yes --- face-palm) flipping circuit breakers because we didn't check that one sub-panel when the lights went out in the kitchen. The work he does is top notch and excellent value for money. He's our go-to electrician and an all-round awesome guy. Less

Daniel fixed several issues around our home (replaced outlets with GCFI, fixed two way light switch in hallway, separated light and fan in bathroom), then tackled the replacement of our old Zinsco electrical panel. It turned out to be a much bigger pain to replace than anyone originally thought, which made us extra glad we went with Daniel, as he is reliable, professional, hard-working, and easy to communicate with. He saw the job through to the end and did a fantastic job. His rates were very fair (and lower than other companies who gave bids), and we always felt comfortable having him in our home. I will definitely give him a call next time something is wonky with our electric, and would enthusiastically recommend him to a friend. Less

Extremely knowledgeable and did quality work. Daniel installed an electrical connection for my generator. He was quick to respond and provide me with a quote. His work looks great and incredible considering the old and unpermitted wiring in my electric box. I am so grateful! Less

I asked Daniel to add overhead recessed lighting in my living room and add new outlets for a closet. Daniel stopped by my house and offered an estimate for the work for free. On the day of the appointment itself he showed up on time, worked efficiently to plan the exact location of the lights with me, kept me informed of my options when it comes to installing switches and location. Overall the work was completed really fast and I am very happy with it. Less

Daniel is an excellent electrician and a very fine man as well! He helped us immensely with a project we started on our own that went sideways. He took his time to troubleshoot and was very professional and knowledgeable. He showed up with very short notice on a Sunday and we are very grateful and HIGHLY recommend him. Thank you Daniel! Less

Daniel did an super duper amazing job to fix our electricity problem . My brother called Daniel on a Sunday afternoon at 4pm. Daniel showed up in less than 10 minutes. He installed a new outlet for me in less than 30 minutes. I am very pleased by his professionalism and customer service. Highly recommend Less

The electrician came out almost immediately, fixed my short circuit, and didn't make me feel like an idiot (it was just a circuit breaker which needed to be reset). He checked to make sure it wasn't a chronic issue, and offered to check other wiring if necessary. Fixed the problem! Good job, would hire again. Less

Bingo Electric has been so much help with tracking down a weird wiring problem, getting our house ready to sell, and updating our exterior lighting. He was patient with changing schedules, flexible, clear about costs and offered quality work. There is no one else we would use for big or small projects. Less

Dan was great. He's knowledgeable and works fast. Very reasonable rates. Does the work you want done and will not do more than needed. I would definitely recommend him and am going to have him do more work for me when needed. Less

I can just say I got lucky finding Dan with Bingo Electric. Both my bathroom outlets stopped working about a month ago. Dan came out, and what first appeared to be a quick fix turned into something a little more. Needless to say after a little while he found the issue fixed it and done. Couldn't have been happier with the level of work and professionalism. Will be calling Bing Electrical in the future for any more electrical issues. Less

I am not big on details, and don't do many ratings. But Daniel was over the top. I will use him for any electrical issue I have and refer him to friends. Less

Second job with Dan: Needless to say, this guy is my electrician for life. He worked all day installing an electric heater in our garage. A faulty heater no less! When the faulty heater started smoking and nearly caught fire, Dan didn't lose his cool. Calm, collected and smart. This guy is a gem. I was so stressed out, but he went back through and diagnosed everything. Found the problem.... loose screws in a BRAND NEW HEATER! He fixed the faulty heater (saved me returning it!) and it is humming like a baby now. I will never contact another electrician again. SO STOKED that I found him on yelp. He told me that he is only working word of mouth jobs now. And I know why. He is the best. period . Less

I got a quick response from Daniel and we scheduled an appointment to fix some outlets that I had. He was prompt and did several thorough testing and was able to find the source of the issue and fixed it. Will definitely use Daniel again for any other future Electrical issues and recommend him Less

Daniel was very professional, arrived on time and took all the precautions with coming into someones home during the COVID situation. He was very knowledgeable and friendly while discussing what the issue was and how to resolve it. Our situation was a simple fix for him and very happy he was transparent and got the job done in no time at all. I would highly recommend Bingo Electric to anyone that may need the services. Less

Warm-hearted and helpful! I got a problem about my landscape lighting and sent out the inquiry at late night. Daniel patiently asked about the details and offered some instructions to me to see if these tricks can save me the cost of a visit. Less

Bingo was great, showed up in a mask, very professional, and efficient in finding and fixing the fault in our garage circuit. Would absolutely use them again. Less

I didn't end up using Daniel's electrical services but I wanted to compliment him here on his customer service. Daniel had very quick and timely responses, follow-up and gave me a very reasonable quotation for the work I wanted to get done. Less

I was very pleased with Dan's work. He was prompt in responding to our problem, gave us a reasonable quote, then was able to get the needed part and fix our electrical panel circuit breaker the same day. I have his card and will call him the next time we have a problem. Less

We needed some additional exterior and interior outlets installed to our 1955 era home. Bingo was very responsive in quickly bidding the job at a reasonable price and was able to complete the work faster than estimated. We were very pleased with the job and will definitely call Bingo for any further work on our house. Less

I needed to hook up the water sprinkler timer to the electrical box at my home. I thought it would just be adding a couple of wires to the switch that also controls the pool light, but it wasn't as easy as that. Anyway, Daniel was able to do the job in a couple of hours. The work was very good and the timer is working perfectly. I would recommend Daniel for any small job electrical work. MRicks 6/4/2020 Less

I ran into an electrical issue with a specific breaker at my house recently. I reached out to several electricians on Yelp and Daniel responded quickly, asked the right questions, and was here the next day. He was thorough and went through the potential problem areas methodically to rule out where the problem was. Within no time, Daniel had it sorted and I'm back to 100% in the house. I will absolutely work with Daniel again. Less

We lost electrics in both master bedrooms, and after all of our poking and proofing, could not make it come back on. Called Dan on Sunday, and he got back to me within 30 minutes. Made an appointment for Monday. He arrived in time and ready to get to work! Tracked down our issue in a flash and got us up and running. Definitely going to be my first call for any electrical needs in the future! Great service, prompt, and reasonable rates. Less

Daniel Brenner is outstanding to work with, I had some tough challenges on several projects. He really helped with electrical designs, troubleshooting and installation. I'm impressed with Bingo electric's focus on customer satisfaction and delivering results. They gave me several options to give me flexibility of both cost and schedule. He came through for me and I am delighted to give bingo electric the highest rating, they really deliver. Rick Dorsett, San Jose CA Less

Daniel was fast to send me a quote, had great communication, showed up on time, was very knowledgeable and professional, did an excellent job with my EV charger set up, and his fee was very reasonable. I would definitely use him again. Less

Dan was super helpful with multiple electrical issued we have been dealing with. We have worked with other electricians in the area and he was the best. Dan understands the Santa Cruz mountains as he grew up here and knows that a lot of houses have weird electrical issues. We thought we were going to need major electrical work but Dan recommended simpler and cheaper options that satisfied us and saved us big. Highly recommended. Less

Dan came to our home and quickly resolved our electrical needs. He showed up on-time, got the job done, and gave us some good insight as well. His prices are reasonable and we'd be happy to have him work on our home in the future! Less

Finally found a good and honest electrician!!!! Daniel was on time and communicated with me about his arrival. I had an issue with a few of my rooms plugs. They were dead. Once Daniel arrived he listened to me and looked around and quickly came up with a solution. He found the issue! He gave me a price which I thought was fair and started the work right away. He was in and out within a few hours. Everything has been perfect since. I also had him back to install bathroom fans and a car charger. Again fair pricing, on time, and super cheerful. It's a relief having someone you trust. Less

Great service. Helped us troubleshoot a problem over the phone at no charge. He followed up to make sure the problem was resolved. Knowledgeable, friendly, professional and our family would highly recommend them. Less

Daniel has done great work for a very fair and reasonable price. So far he has done canned light installs, an electrical sub panel, and even fixed my own rookie mistakes of accidentally damaging an electrical line. Always professional and pleasant to work with, highly recommended! Less

Daniel with Bingo Minor Electrical has been more than helpful in dealing with many Electrical problems at my house throughout the years.He is responsible and very honest!I highly recommend him for any of your Electrical Needs. Less
