Christian was on time, communicated well and fixed our hallway lights going up the stairs in the building. He explained his approach to problem solving, and also clearly explained the alternatives and the different price points. I really appreciated his customer service and he fixed our lights!! Would recommend him to anyone!

Christian was professional and extremely knowledgeable. It took him less than an hour to fix my electrical problem. I would highly recommend Torres Electrical & Design company for all your  electrical needs and design ideas.

What great people! Arrived on time. Brought everything they needed. Finnished my job quickly. Cleaned up completely and they were gone! Done at a very fair and reasonable price. I could not be more satisfied. Cristian is terrific.
😊 Thanks.

Cristian provided an excellent experience in installing new hardwired sconces and outlets. Throughout the process, Cristian engaged in a thorough discussion with me, exploring various options and considerations. I am confident that I will continue to rely on Cristian’s expertise in the future.

For background, I owned a duplex and converted it to condos in San Francisco. I've worked with a variety of other contractors on different projects on this building to accomplish the conversion (HVAC, roofing, bathroom renovation, electrical, etc.), so I know the building quite well. I also know what it's like to work with a variety of contractors and the issues that can arise (delays, failure to pass inspections, not showing up on time or at all, getting invoices with missing scope, etc.).

Cristian Torres is a fantastic person to work with! I started working with Cristian for a variety of electric projects on this duplex approximately 3 years ago in order to bring the duplex up to code for the condo conversion process. He has been excellent to work with at every step of the way. He is always on time, delivers quality work, sets expectations properly, communicates clearly, and lets you know the current progress/next steps every time you interact with him. He shows up every day with a smile on his face, takes pride in his work every day (he likes showing off his work 😉), and I've never had a bad interaction with him (even if I was having a bad day and being rude to him).

Some of the work I've had Cristian do was:

- Replace the building main panel and sub panels (Cristian handled the 18-month-long coordination with PG&E entirely and proactively updated us on status; the reason it took 18 months was on PG&E's side, not Cristian's)

- Bring 2 kitchens and 2 bathrooms up to current code (as of 2024)

- Detangle complex wiring to completely separate two units and a garage/storage space so each unit was billed properly for their actual electrical usage

- Put in multi-way lightswitch wiring in our garage that actually works properly

- Install a baseboard heater with smart thermostat for a baby room

I've occasionally tossed some unconventional ideas at him, and he's always considered what my end goal is, made me feel heard/understood, and worked with me to get to the desired end state (or simply tell me why it's a bad idea in the first place).

I've already recommended Cristian to other people and he's the first person I reach out to anytime I have any electrical needs.

Cristian is not only an outstanding person, he is a skilled craftsman. I have trusted Cristian to  take care of all electrical related projects since i have been in business. I am often asked for referrals in my trade and i am very grateful that Cristian lives up to his word. 10/10

It’s extremely rare (for me) to find an honest person who is also a well skilled electrician. Cristian did a huge wiring project for us in December and came back today to do some switch replacing that I’m unable to and shouldn’t do electrical wise, all at a reasonable fair cost !  Big plus, On time too !!!

Honest, friendly, decent and very knowledgeable …. Thanks again Cristian for being you and helping us

Christian Torres is the smartest, most thorough electrician I have ever met. He’s the only one I would use after I met him several years ago. He’s is also just the nicest person you’d ever want to meet!! Highly recommend!
