Highlights

  • Knob and tube rewiring β€” a recent customer hired him for a Victorian house
  • A 15-minute fix β€” a recent customer said he solved the problem that quickly
  • A wiring repair β€” a recent customer said he fixed wiring left taken apart
  • A clear explanation β€” a recent customer said he explained the issue and his plan
  • Tenant coordination β€” a recent customer said he coordinated with the tenants

A recent Thumbtack customer hired Francisco Hernandez of JIB Electric to diagnose an old Victorian house for locations of knob and tube wiring, then rewire it. That customer picked him after walkthroughs and quotes from 5 different electricians, and said he provided clear quotes on time, checked in before major decisions about approach or adding work to scope, coordinated with the tenants and completed the post-job paperwork promptly. The same customer called him very reasonable about pricing. On Thumbtack he holds 5.0 stars from 257 ratings, and the site lists him as a Top Pro in 2025, 2024, 2021 and 2020. A recent customer with a 200-year-old house said he fixed wiring that another electrician had taken apart and took the time to explain how everything worked. A recent customer whose lights were not working said he took his time to diagnose the problem, explained the issue and his plan to fix it, and resolved it. A recent customer said he fixed a shower light that had stopped working. A recent customer said he identified and solved their electrical problem 15 minutes after he arrived. A 2025 customer said he addressed a lighting issue, installed a ceiling fan and explained why the house had different wiring configurations. A 2025 customer said he changed a light timer and upgraded the system at reasonable prices. A 2025 customer said he responded almost immediately and called to discuss what was needed. A 2025 customer said Francisco was the first to respond to their job search on Thumbtack, and that the customer's daughter's in-laws later used his services and were also happy.

    I received a quick response from Francisco which was very helpful. (It also helped to read other peoples reviews.) No exaggerations on anyones review. Polite and eager to show me all the wonderful work AND he took the time to explain how everything worked. He was able to fix wiring that another electrician had taken apart. I hesitate on writing an excellent review because I would like to be able to get him in the future, he is the electrician you want to tell all your friends to use,too. He will be in big demand. My house is 200 years old and I will always call him if there is an issue!

    I reached out to Francisco regarding some electrical issues I was having with some of my lights not working, he immediately responded offering to help. He took his time to diagnose the problem and thoroughly explained what the issue was and his plan to fix it. He was very professional, and did a great job resolving the issue. I would absolutely recommend Francisco and use him on future projects.…Read moreElectrical and

    Francisco was responsive, on time, and efficient. He fixed a shower light that had stopped working and was pleasant to deal with. I would hire him again for electrical work in my home.

    He is personable, prompt, professional and expert at his craft. He identified and solved our electrical problem 15 minutes after he arrived. I highly recommend him

    I hired Francisco (JIB Electric) for a complex job diagnosing an old Victorian house for locations of knob and tube wiring, then rewiring. I selected him after doing walkthroughs and getting quotes from 5 different electricians, and I am very happy with the work he did. Communication with him was easy (direct call/text vs leaving messages with an office). He provided clear quotes on time, checked in before major decisions were made about approach or adding work to scope, coordinated with my tenants professionally, and completed post-job paperwork that I needed promptly. Finally, He was very reasonable about pricing. I couldn’t recommend Francisco more highly, and I plan to call him for future electrical work.
