George Brazil Plumbing & Electrical

At 1130 on a random Wednesday evening, the main electrical panel on a home I had owned for less than a month failed spectacularly. Sparks, smoke and eventually flames! Managed to get main breaker opened to stop the flow of electricity and put out the small fire that resulted from the arcing. Then, in the complete darkness I started searching for an emergency electrician that might come help before Monday the 12th of never. I chose the George Brazil team primarily because of their overwhelmingly positive reviews. I was not disappointed. I received a call back from Ty Williams, the on call electrician within about 15 minutes of my initial call. He stated he was on his way and would arrive within the hour. He arrived on time and ready to tackle my electrical demons. After a thorough review of my panel, the melted breakers and overall damage, he offered two solutions, neither inexpensive but reasonable and fair with a thorough, knowledgeable explanation of the options available. I decided on the option to completely replace the damaged panel with new equipment. He advised that he would meet representatives from APS and the city of Glendale as early as possible later that morning (by this time it was way into the early morning hours) to get the permits and begin work. He made sure the panel was safe enough to run low amperage plugs, lights and fans to allow us not to have to find alternative lodging in the middle of the night and he departed. He was back bright and early to begin the permit process, he contacted the solar company to advise and correlate with them on the repair. Ty cut through the red tape and bureaucracy that was the solar company, APS and city of Glendale on my behalf, saving me a ton of stress and bother. Within 24 hours, permits were in place and my new panel was installed, without incident, excuses or hassle! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GEORGE BRAZIL AND ESPECIALLY TY WILLIAMS. When you are in need of an electrical professional, they don’t come any better than TY WILLIAMS. If I could give Ty and George Brazil 10 stars I certainly would! Thank you Ty and George Brazil!

Best service from start to finish. I highly recommend George Brazil electric and particularly their technician, Francisco Ochoa. My Master Cirquit Breaker went out Sunday eve. Called them about 8 PM and they had a tech at my house Monday by 9AM. Francisco was knowledgeable, professional and very nice. He diagnosed my problem quickly then explained the problem in simple terms with the proposed repair options in detail. He had pictures of my circuit box to show me the problems. During the repair he found there was a voltage deficit, no 240, needed for AC, etc only 120, so he called the electric company and arranged for them to come out within 2 hours. Told me exactly what to check with them before they left and left his card if they or I had any more questions. In all Francisco went above and beyond. I was ecstatic that he did not leave the electric co to me and did that contact for me. Most service company techs might have told me I had to contact the electric co. Not George Brazil, Francisco took care of every step to fix my problem for me. The service provided by George Brazil Electric smoothly handled a bad situation and took the stress off me. From the time I called to when SRP finished I didn't have to lift a finger. Perfect service.

We have used George Brazil for a few years now and its always been great. This tech we had today Wesley was great, he went above and beyond to take his time to explain all we needed and helped us plan the to-do list we needed to get done. We were able to get all the work done we needed same day, which was so great. Thank you so much!

As usual, had a great experience with George Brazil Plumbing service. Mr. Espinosa Was the tech that came by to do the work he was at my house for about an hour to make repairs under my sink. Great job! cleaned up and explained all the work in detail. My family’s been doing business with George Brazil since 1976 when we were living in Van Nuys California I’ve been doing business with their electrical department as well as plumbing sometimes it’s a little pricey, but it’s worth it. You get what you pay for and these guys are spot on Accurate and have everything on their truck to do the job completely.

A George Brazil employee rear-ended me, and it took 2 days for a phone call back from their insurance to be referred to another insurance company. Even though their employee was ticketed, their insurance notified us that they had not reported the accident. Therefore all costs are coming out of our personal pocket. This was not a minor incident and happened on the US 60 September 2nd. With disregard for civilian safety, you think the least they could do would notify their insurance of such an incident. Anything to avoid responsibility, which was clearly their fault by the judgment of the DPS officer that cited their employee. If that is how they handle an insurance claim, what do they do if you have an issue with job performance?

Francisco Ochoa did a great job. He was very professional and very helpful. He explained things well and looked for the best deal for me. He replaced two outlets. One was very old and definitely needed to be replaced. I would highly recommend Francisco

Troy was great. He understood our issue and went above and beyond to make sure it was taken care of. He also provided valuable input on things we should consider, things we had no idea needed attention. For our electrical needs we want Troy to help us.
