Power. Precision. Premier Service.
A residential electrical contractor built around craft, code, and a crew that shows up.
Our story
A trusted name in residential electrical since 2017.
Premier 1 Electric is a trusted name in residential electrical and low-voltage solutions. With decades of expertise, precision, and innovation, the company partners with both national production builders and luxury custom home builders across the Greater Bay Area and San Joaquin Valley.
The emphasis is on high-quality craftsmanship, cutting-edge technology, and an unwavering commitment to safety — from the first conduit bend underground to the final hot-check before homeowner walkthrough.
Builder partners come back because our crews hit their schedule, our finished work passes inspection the first time, and our project managers communicate like extensions of the builder's own team.

What we do
Three disciplines, one crew.
New home construction
Full-stack electrical for national production builders and luxury custom homes — underground through hot-check, on a builder-grade schedule.
System upgrades for existing homes
Panel swaps, rewires, and capacity expansions for remodels and whole-home updates — NEC-compliant and permit-ready.
Low-voltage solutions
Smart home, security, structured cabling, audio/visual, and home automation — designed and installed alongside the line-voltage rough-in so nothing gets retro-fitted.
