Amor Electric

I called Amor Electric to install an EV charger with city permit. Gil came and gave me a reasonable price and explained what he'll do. That was after 3 electricians went MIA on me because they didn't want to deal with the City and going through the permit process. Gil is very knowledgeable and very nice & reliable. He got the permit and was very responsive throughout the process even after we passed the inspection and I had a question regarding the EV charger. Highly recommend!

Called Gil to help with an electrical wiring problem a previous electrician said he didn't know how to fix. Gil was very responsive and came to my place and fixed the problem, explaining everything the whole time.  Highly recommend.

Gil is dependable and has always completed my work with the utmost professionalism. He never ceases to amaze me in figuring out how to resolve my problems. I honestly ask him for tasks that I'm not always sure can be resolved but then he finds a way like he always does! He will continue to be my go-to electrician.

Gil and Ramon did a great job. Ramon helped install a new ceiling fan. Gil tackled diagnosing various lights and light switches that were malfunctioning around our house. He and Ramon are trustworthy and knowledgeable. We will gladly hire him. Thank you!!!

The best! They've done big jobs and small jobs for our family - all great work no problems. Amor electric is our go-to electrician. Thanks Gil!

Update - I just called Gil to help with an electrical issue at my new place.  It was a bit outside his service range but he was kind enough to give me some tips for troubleshooting the problem on my own.  He really knows his stuff and is a nice guy too.

I had an urgent need to check out the power to an old home in Santa Monica. It was 1:30 in the afternoon.  I called Gil and he was very professional, I explained my situation that I was only in town for the day and needed to get the situation checked.  He said he could help and arrived about 40 minutes later.  He spent the good part of an hour going through the service from the street through the breakers and through out the house.  Even into the basement and up into the attic. He was able to locate the issue and we got it solved.
I was very impressed and thankful he could address my issues so quickly.  His price was very fair.

Gil took note that we were having an urgent issue at the house and worked us into his busy schedule. He came by within two hours' time and went through our outlets, fuse box and local wiring to help us assess the issue.

As it turns out, the problem was not within the house but one with Edison. Gil let me know how to explain the issue to them. They in turn came out and fixed the problem that day. We honestly had no idea where to begin, and by calling in an expert we were able to get what appeared to be a big problem resolved quickly and inexpensively.

This guy has a degree in electrical Engineering. He knows his stuff! Today was a rainy day, and I decided to replace the exterior outlet, after that, the switch that controlled the exterior light blew several fuses in the  house. So after realizing it was above my pay grade I started calling all the local electricians and Gil was the fastest to answer and got here in 30 minutes. It took him maybe 10 minutes to figure out the outlet issue ( was me improperly wiring it) AND he also fixed a 3 way switch that previous electrician could not figure out. All in all he was done in 40 min.
Gil is very efficient, professional and pleasant to work with!

Gill is a terrific electrician.  He came quickly,and was masked and gloved when he entered our house.  Gill quickly identified the problem and determined it would take some time to repair. Instead, he bypassed the problem area and arranged an other appointment to do the full repair.  That went well too.

We definitely recommend Gil and Amor Electric.

Gil is an honest and fair electrician and I am so glad I called him when I had some electrical issues.  He took his time to try to help me over the phone initially and when I wasn't able to fix it myself he came over promptly and fixed the problem.  He explained things well and was friendly.  I highly recommend him.

My ceiling fan/light stopped working, and Gil solved the problem over the phone.  Such helpfulness and honesty are all too rare.  I will certainly call him again if an electrical issue turns up.  Many thanks!

Gil and Fernando are amazing and I would highly recommend them! Very professional and delivered great work. Even though they're based in Santa Monica, they made time to make it over to Westwood to perform a much needed electrical repair to one of my outlets. Gil even took time to help me remotely troubleshoot the issue initially. Fernando arrived and was fast in determining and fixing the issue. I have a more electrical work that I would like them to work on and they're definitely my go to for electrical services moving forward. Highly recommend.

Great experience.  I called and got a quote right away and the job was done the very next morning!  Very pleasant to deal with and the finished job, an exterior outlet looks great.

Amazing!!!!  I was in a bind having Airbnb-era at my house with the circuit breaker not working and not sure what to do on a Sunday. The man I spoke to was so nice, made himself available to come over despite it being a busy time but more importantly gave me some tips to see if I could fix it myself.  (The only one of several I called who was conscious of my time and money.)   Turns out he was able to help me via phone and get the problem solved right away without having to come over and he didn't charge me.  When does that ever happen?!?  I'm so appreciative of them and will DEFINITELY call them first for all my electrical needs going forward.  Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

I found Gil and Amor Electric here on Yelp, had never used before. Amor went above and beyond on the job of not only replacing the ugliest light fixture in LA but flawlessly replacing 80, yes 80!!! year old lighting in a building that once served as the Venice City Hall. The owner Gil and the amazing Fernando worked for an entire day and solved a problem that other LA electricians could not. Arrived on time, called half way through the day to check everything was going ok and exceeded all expectations.
In all they removed all the old fixtures and track lights and installed a stunning vintage brass chandelier after installing a entirely new J box, wired power from the new chandelier (Into the area above the ceiling! No holes at all) to a beam in the ceiling and installed all new LED Lithonia track lights. I am beyond impressed how they did this without leaving any holes or patch work, total geniuses to use the track to cover the tiny hole for all the new wiring to the new lights. On top of that they replaced 6 additional track lights with all LEDS in another part of the building. Took care of all trash and came beyond prepared with all the parts we didn't even know we would need after removing the old fixture. The great customer service, how quickly the work was done and the incredibly low price for such a hug job is why I felt the need to post this review. I will post a few pictures so you can see. Great electrician for any of your projects!
THANK YOU GIL, we will absolutely be calling you for all future jobs. You guys are the greatest! The new lights are so great and we enjoy your work every day. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! THANK YOU!

WARNING strong language below:

I don't think I've ever encountered a business owner be so rude and harassing to me and my girlfriend before.

The employee that he sent to our home for an initial consultation was very nice and patient, but then a few hours after we got a very surprising and rude phone call from the owner where he berated my girlfriend and made her cry on the phone.

Safe to say he lost any future business from us or any friends we know, and I will be actively looking for a different company to work with and will follow up with a review and recommendation.

I wonder how poorly he treats his own employees if he even treats customers like this.

Absolutely unacceptable behavior.

This owner of this business was so unbelievably rude to me today. I am disappointed with their business.

I called yesterday to ask if they could install a chandelier and I wasn't sure if I could make a new hole in the ceiling for the electric or had to use the one already there, because my neighbors said they couldn't install a new one, because there was something blocking in the ceiling and all of our units are identical. I asked for someone to come to see if I could move the chandelier over to the center of the room. When Fernando came today, he was very nice and patient. I had him look in the ceiling to see if we could make a new hole and he said yes or that we could just keep it where it was. I wasn't sure if I wanted to move it or keep it so I called my boyfriend asking and then took a couple minutes looking at the room and thinking. Then Fernando asked if I would just rather him come back another day when I knew for sure what I wanted to do. So I said yes and asked him if I owe him anything for his visit today and he said no. I told him I would call tomorrow to book. He was very helpful.

Then 20 minutes later, I get a call from the owner, yelling at me saying why would he send his guy over here if I didn't want to install a chandelier and that I cost him so much money as a company sending someone out here for 20 minutes....  He kept repeating himself again again demeaning and belittling me saying it's not complicated; if you want to move the chandelier, then move it. you don't ask for someone to come there and tell them to leave. This is ridiculous. The whole time on the phone I am trying to explain to him what happened and he is just shouting at me. I finally told him he had lost me as a customer. A business owner should never speak to anyone like that. Now hours later I get a call from someone else at the company insisting on the same thing of why would I have someone come if I didn't install a chandelier. I again said that Fernando asked if he should come back another day when I was completely sure. Regardless, she just ignored me and very upset because my boyfriend had posted a bad review, which I am glad he did. The only apology I got was a sorry for the miscommunication. Nothing at all about sorry for his behavior. That is unacceptable or anything like that. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a potential electrician to NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They do not value their customers at all, let alone even treat them with an ounce of respect. Unbelievably disappointed and I cannot stress anymore that you should find another electrician, because the owner of this company is flat out mean to his customers.

This is my second review for Gil and Amor Electric, and I will continue to call Gil for all future electrical issues.  

I needed an electrician to assist the installation of new motors by the Shade Store.  Unfortunately, the electrician would need to wait while the installers mounted the new unit after the electrician powered down the old one.  

From the moment I called Gil, he was professional and went out of his way to assist with my one-off request.  When the work was completed, I was charged $50 less than what I was quoted.  This is a no-brainer!  Call Amor Electric -- promise you will be so happy with the outcome!!

What a concept! You call an electrician at 10:30 am and he shows up at 12:30 to do the work!

A timer, mounted in a light switch box for controlling some outside lighting, had failed and left the lights on all the time. Gil asked for a photo of the installation, which I took and texted him, along with my address. I told him I had a doctor's appointment at noon, but that my wife would be home. At about 12:30 I got a text that he was at the house. When I got home at 1, he had a new switch mounted and was just testing it. He asked me about on/off times and programmed them in. He left around 1:30 (3 hours after I had initially called him) and the job was complete. His charge was reasonable.

I now have a new electrician!

Had an emergency situation about three weeks ago. Called Gil he came out that day as promised and fixed the problem which was quite complicated. Thankfully he was able to solve the issue. He thoroughly explained everything. I'm so happy With their services! Thank you!

Gil saved us not once, but twice! And not just me, but also my neighbors.

Unlike most electricians, he communicated with us to let us know when he would arrive, fixed everything quickly, and was professional and extremely helpful.

I highly recommend Gil and his great work!

Believe in the wisdom of crowds. Gil gets overwhelmingly positive reviews on Yelp! and I can see why. He did three small jobs at my house within 24 hours of me calling him. He was highly competent, very pleasant to deal with and several times during his visit advised me on the most inexpensive options to fix my electrical issues. The two negative reviews about the infamous chandelier incident detailed below told me a lot more about the entitled attitude of the reviewers than they did about Gil...

Gil came by today and fixed my main panel breaker problems. He was as good and honest as it gets. Gil was straightforward, knew his stuff, and was looking out for my best interest (not to swindle me with padded hours and marked up part prices). I would highly recommend him.

Wow! Alfredo stayed all day to make sure everything was perfect. If I need any other lighting needs I will definitely only use this company. Thank you! 10/10

Called Gil late on a Tuesday and Wednesday morning at 8:30 am he was at our house.  Courteous, competent, professional - he fixed our problem quickly.  Would absolutely recommend him, he's great.

Awesome, professional work.  I hired another electrician for $200 to fix a broken outlet.  He said i needed to replace a breaker.  Paid $65 at a store for a circuit breaker and it didnt fix the problem.  Then he said it was a short in the wall and he'd have to come back and charge more to do it.  

I called Amor.  Cost $125 and the problem was fixed in 20 minutes (short in the light switch)  On top of that I could use the old breaker and take the new one back so he saved me $65 on top of that.

These are my go to electricians from now on.  I wish everyone was this good.

We needed some work done, and it wasn't the easiest. Chandelier needed to be installed, and needed its own switch. We wanted to add a pendant light above our kitchen counter, and it needed to get on the same switch as the other 2. We also had a ceiling fan that had been installed wrong (by us, because another electrician hadn't been able to figure out how to install it, so we did it ourselves), and was connected to the wrong switch.

Fernando came right on time, was super clean, did everything perfectly, and really exceeded my expectations. First, because we've had bad experiences with people leaving behind a lot of dust and dirt. Second, because he brought a laser that allowed him to make sure the chandelier was being hung exactly in line with the center of the window. Third, because he took the time to talk to me about all of the switches in our bedroom and ask exactly what we wanted each to do (there are a lot, it's a confusing switch situation.)

I was kind of jaded by previous electrician work, but Gil was great to work with over the phone (pointed out a lot of things I hadn't thought of), and Fernando was really awesome at doing the work. Thank!!

Excellent service!  Gave me an instant quote over the phone, showed up the next day for our appointment.  Fast work and well done.  Thank you!

Fernando came out to install a new chandelier. Was very professional and courteous. I also appreciated that they sent me a text the day before reminding me of our appointment. Only area of improvement is Fernando was about 15 min late and didn't call to let me know. Not a big deal since I had the day off from work. Other than that, I would use them again.

I was in desperate need of my stovetop to be fixed for this weekend (planned for bunch of people to come over). I called Amor Electric and Gil came to the rescue! He tried to first see what was wrong step by step and figured out what could fix it, and hurrah. It worked. If ever my electric goes out, I'll come back to Amor Electric. Thank you for your service!

Wow.  This guy crushes 5 star reviews.  I got on Yelp to help out because I had such a positive experience today, but I can see - help not needed.  Good for him and good for you if you use his services.  We had a great experience and would use Gil and his company again !

Like anyone I'm sensitive about who I bring into my home for service work. I'm glad to say I had a great experience with Gil. He arrived on time was professional, knowledgable and worked quickly. He also provided great advice for dealing with all the different lighting fixtures built into our unit including inexpensive resources for parts. Would work with his company again.

I love Gil. He knows his stuff. He explains things clearly. Is totally honest.  He won't oversell you. He arrives on time and is totally courteous. That's about all I need. Have used him several times. Lucky to have found him,

Thanks to the magic that is the Santa Monica Code Compliance Division, we had to upgrade not just the sub-panel in our apartment, but the entire service panel for our building. Gil is an electrical engineer as well as an electrician, so we were confident in his planning and work. Gil guided us through the whole mess, even getting on the phone and bringing down the thunder on the city's inspection supervisor after getting screwed over by the city.

My electrician being out of town, I called Amor Electric based on his 5 star track record. I explained I had 4 new lights to install, 2 inside to replace 2 existing old light fixtures, and 2 dual light security lanterns outside the house. I was wondering if the lanterns would be problematic to install with new light switches since I did not have existing light fixtures Gil gave me his rates upfront, and explained it depended on how and where the switches needed to be installed. Since he was located close to my area, he came by to pre-check the project and the lanterns in particular. I am grateful that Gil explained that I did not need switches for the lanterns because they turn on and off with the sun light, and brighten up when they detect motion. But, being old school, I thought it was weird to have lights without switches to control them. Later, I noticed my neighbors' similar lanterns, and confirmed that they did not have switches. So thank you, Gil for saving me installation money, and also for coming to check the day of installation and advise Fernando it was easier to hang one lantern using the power from inside the furnace room, which I had forgotten to show Fernando.
Fernando did a beautiful job installing the two small chandeliers and the outside lanterns, removing his shoes inside when he noticed I did, even though I had placed old mats for him to walk on with his shoes!
He was so kind and patient when we needed to straighten the study chandelier, and when I was trying to decide where exactly to hang the lanterns, as the patio door was not in the middle of the wall, and we also  had to work with the wood beams inside the walls.
I am glad I have found a nice new electrical company.

Tonight our power went out and it couldn't have come at a worse time.  I am extremely ill and have family in town helping out.  We have a fully stocked fridge and it's a cold night in a terribly insulated duplex. And it's 11pm.  I had no idea who to call, and I knew it would be expensive regardless.  

Luckily I called Amor.  The gentleman that answered easily could have charged me $200 just to come take a look, but INSTEAD, he patiently sat on the phone while mom and I scrambled around with flashlights, and talked us through the whole thing.  We eventually found the main breakers outside and fixed the problem (yes,not advanced...but for non-electrically inclined who aren't familiar with the building...).  

He was so nice and so knowledgeable, and saved us tons of time and money.  I can't imagine how nice it would be if more businesses were run this way.  I would recommend these guys simply on their business morals and his patience and knowledge and I will 100% be using them for all electrical needs in the future.

Amor Electric is excellent!! I called them at the last minute and they arrived in a very timely manner. Gil and Fernando installed 4 of my chandeliers quickly and carefully. They even had a few of the pieces I was missing in their truck which was super handy. My lightings looks gorgeous and their prices are outstanding!! I couldn't be happier and I highly recommend Amor Electric!! Thank you Gil and Fernando. My home looks beautiful !

The basics: fast, professional, knowledgable.  I'd use him again and recommend him to anyone.
The details: I called in the morning and he was able to come by afternoon.  The job was to install a new circuit breaker at the back of the house for an outlet in the front of the house.  He thought it would be a full day job or he'd need a help, or asked if I wanted to assist pulling wire to save both time and money - amazing and fun to be involved.  He stayed till 6 on a Friday and finished - even though he had intended to end early.  Double amazing.  And then he called on Saturday after reflecting on the job - he had an idea to improve his already great work - honest and caring like you'd expect from a friend.

Gil came by on two separate occasions to solve a number of electrical issues we had, involving lights, switches, outlets, and transformers.  His prices are fair, and he conducts himself with honesty, kindness, and professionalism.  We highly recommend him.

Gil is amazing! I called him about 2 electrical issues I was having and he quickly did some troubleshooting with me over the phone and I was able to address both of them without a visit. Truly stand up individual!

My husband contacted Gil to help install a few outlets as well as to install a light fixture on our patio.  He ended up sending out one of his employees, Fernando, who was very flexible with working with our schedule.  Fernando was on time and did a fantastic job with everything.  He was friendly and answered all of our questions, including the ones we had regarding our future plans.  We will definitely work with his company again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a solid electrician with reasonable prices.

The lights at my place were going haywire, some didn't get enough power, some too much.  And flipping on one switch would turn on something else.  

Found Gil here and he thought the problem was a loose neutral, and that there could be a lot of damage to appliances if the power surged, so he came right away.  After troubleshooting for about 1.5 hrs he found the problem and fixed it, also tightening other wires and checking the circuit breaker.  Rates very reasonable, and he walked us through how he solved the issue.  

Yay!  Problem solved, I was afraid I'd have to chop open the walls to find the problem wire, but turns out it wasn't that drastic.  Prices reasonable and he was very professional.

Our heating thermostat went out and we couldn't turn off the heat. Simple problem but I didn't want to mess with the thermostat because I couldn't identify the circuit breaker to turn off the power.

Gil took care of the problem and, more importantly, educated me on my elecrical system so that I will be able to deal with this in the future.

He was not super friendly at first, preferring to get right down to business. Once he got into it he was happy to answer all of my questions.

His professional rate was well worth it because, thanks to his advice, I'll be able to replace these thermostats and handle this myself in the future.

Gil was excellent! I called him about 3 times for advice on how to fix my power outage and he patiently talked me through it. After I couldn't fix it myself he came over within 20 minutes at about 6pm after hours, so grateful! He was so nice and helpful, he fixed our problem within about 30-45 minutes and it was $150 total. I'll definitely call him next time I need a great electrician! Thanks Gil!

Nothing to say here that hasn't already been said:

-knowledgeable
-flexible - met me within 2 hrs.
-CHEAP: $125 for 1st hr, $60 every hr. thereafter
-fast - diagnosed the problem and fixed within 45 mins.
-friendly - played with my dog!
-honest - when i asked if he could replace my track lights in my kitchen, he just showed me how to do it myself.

Would DEFINITELY call him again

Our company is in need of someone to hook up some power whips for our cubicles that are being installed tomorrow (our usual electrician was having scheduling issues so I was checking other options).  I called Amor Electric and spoke to someone who said that they do not work on Saturdays and they can't help me.  I understand it's short notice, but now I'm confused as to why the Yelps shows that the business is open from 9:00AM-1:00PM on Saturdays.  Also, I've read many comments below about things happening last minute and being taken care of.  I don't like giving negative reviews, but am really disappointed by the quality of service.

I called Amor Electric and they immediately called me back. I was able to get an appointment for the next day!  They were able to give me an estimate over the phone and also presented me with a couple different options for the job. Fernando was very professional and helpful.  He did an outstanding job quickly.  Really reasonable pricing too!

I have had him over three times recently while upgrading an apartment. He has been competent and very helpful...

Gil was a huge help this morning with fixing a problem over the phone. After a frustrating night of hearing our smoke detector chirp in our bedroom, Gil was able to talk me through the steps. He was very knowledgeable and extremely patient. I highly recommend his service and will use him in the future for our electrical service needs! Thank you again!

It was the day before Thanksgiving and my fridge was chalk full of groceries when half the power in my house went out. Lousy timing. I called Gil and explained my situation to him. He was able to get to me by mid afternoon and discovered the problem immediately. The circuit breaker was fried, literally melted into its casing. It was an unusual type of breaker and he drove all the way to his supply house in the midst of holiday traffic to get the necessary part before the close of day. His price was quite reasonable, especially considering that he spent over an hour and a half in traffic.I would definitely call on Gil again and again!

Gil Amor is a quality electrician.  He replaced an old bathroom heater we had quickly, efficiently and to the highest spec.  I can see why he has such great reviews on Yelp - I wasn't let down by all these recommendations.  I'll definitely use him again.

I just called this company on a Saturday to schedule an appointment because the electrical outlets in our Master Bath were not working.  After I explained that it was a new house, he talked me through the issues with GFI wiring and told me to look for a GFI outlet in the  bathroom and told me that it could be elsewhere in the house which I would never have thought of.  I searched the master bathroom and found nothing but then checked throughout the second story. I found an outlet with a reset button in a bathroom at the opposite end of the house.  I reset it and the electricity in both bathrooms came back on.  I so appreciate his great help and the money he saved me on an unnecessary service call.  Above and beyond great customer service!!

This amazing gentleman just helped me get my entire electrical system in my garage up and running via a simple face time chat with no fee! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I spoke to Gil on the phone because I've had a problem with my circuit breaker tripping randomly, turning off the lights in the back of my house. Gil spent half an hour on the phone with me to go over the possible options of what it could be! He could have just set up an appointment and charged me whatever fees, but instead he spent all that time with me to see if it was an easy fix. In the end, he helped me figure out that it was a lightbulb we had recently changed causing the issue. I took out the faulty bulb and now it works perfectly! I really appreciate that kind of honesty and would definitely call him again in the future.

Had to have an electrical outlet moved, a small job. But Gil was extremely helpful on the phone and sent out Fernando, who worked very hard, efficiently, and did an outstanding job. Cost was at the low end of what Gill had quoted me over the phone. I am extremely satisfied with their service and their friendly, helpful attitude. Amor Electric is the best!

I went to Google looking for an electrician, wound up on Yelp and found Gil of Amor Electric.
He came this morning, on time, professional, explained what I needed to understand, was fast and efficient. I found him organized and did the job right. He installed two movement sensitive lights outside our building, tested them and was out of here in 55 minutes.  He could have stalled and charged me for additional time and I would never have known the difference. He charged me his quoted fee for an hour. I will definitely call him again and recommend him.

I gave these guys a call to describe an electrical problem I wanted them to stop by and help fix. The guy (I was remiss in asking his name) who answered the phone talked me through a couple basic things that actually fixed the problem. He was so helpful and kind and didn't want me to waste the drive-out/assessment fee for something that would've taken him moments to fix. So basically, they're at the top of my list when something goes wrong, I know already that it's a very honorable company.

Called Amor Electric and through a series of questions he solved my issue over the phone! They completely deserve my business the next time I need an electrician.

Seriously.  Look no further.  Gil is beyond capable, HONEST, accessible, and so helpful.  He's thorough, and just a great guy.  I wish I had more business to give him.  And, when I do, I'll be looking forward to using him again and again.

Very friendly and dealt with the problem within a matter of hours at reasonable cost. He could have insisted on an all new electrical panel, but instead he said he could easily fix the problem for far less money. Will definitely be using again.

I called Gil Amor to take a look at our  circuit breaker which we believed to be overloaded and thought we would need to overhaul.  Gil returned our calls promptly and arrived at the house on time.  He took a look at our set up and informedbme that we did not need an overhaul, but that the breakers had merely been mislabeled.  He did this all free of charge as tree was no work to be done.  He was professional and friendly and I would not hesitate to call him again when we have any need for am electrician.

We had a great experience with Amor Electric (LOVE THE NAME!) when our power kept kicking off. He got back to me right away about the problem and came to our studio a few hours later.

He educated us on the problem and guided us on how to correct the problem without spending thousands on re-wiring.

I could tell right away that he was very knowledgeable and was interested in helping us, not trying to make a quick buck. When we have any other electrical upgrades or challenges, we'll call them first.

Fantastic service!!! I am so happy! I had a difficult issue that I was unable to resolve with my kitchen overhead fluorescent lighting, so in frustration I looked online to get help and I found this place. Because the Yelp reviews were favorable, I called and spoke with Gil Amor. He had a slight accent, which made communication over the phone a bit difficult for me, but he agreed to come over within the hour and help me. He and his brother Ofir came. They were both super-nice, efficient and not only FIXED MY PROBLEM, but made improvements to the lighting so that it is better than before!! Also, it was nice having them in my home (I told them they had good energy, LOL) -- this is my go-to place for all such lighting and electrical issues in the future. Prices were super reasonable. I can't recommend them highly enough!!

Very pleased with Gil's professional approach ( he showed up on time and works fast)
He was able to work in our office during working hours with minimal disruption to our business. He fixed some potentially dangerous outlet wiring problems. Gave us some good advice for future office upgrades. And his price was very reasonable!!
Would highly recommend him to friends/family.

I called for a consult. Gil was extremely honest and told me where to go for the cheapest DIY solution. If I ever needed an electrician, I would def. call him again. Thanks Gil!

maybe it's because i'm an older skeptic and have been misled by too many online reviews, but i was wary about all the praise for amor electric. but i shouldn't have been. first of all the communication from gil the owner was immediate and helpful. i sent him photos of the machinery i would be connecting and my electric panel that needed upgrading, he came right back with what i would need and how much it would probably cost. he actually contacted me on a sunday (as a small business owner myself, i appreciate that he knows how to keep his customers happy obviously) ,to let me know when they'd be available on monday. his assistant fernando just left. he was fast, professional and on time. what's even better...the job came in at an even LOWER PRICE then the totally reasonable amount i was quoted to begin with. this is the way all companies should do business!

Gil did a great job installing a chandelier for me.  Dealing with a vaulted wood plank ceiling AND the previous owner's botched wiring job -- it was not a straightforward install by any means -- but Gil brought everything up to code and even checked to make sure that the nearby can lights were wired properly.  I feel like I can rest assured, knowing that the job was done right.

I have used Gil from Amor Electric on numerous occasions. He is fantastic !! Not only are his prices reasonable but he does quality work. Plus he really does his best to get in and service you as quickly as he can. I recommend Gil to everyone who needs any electrical assistance.

Gil is GREAT!  Had an emergency electrical problem yesterday and found Gil through Yelp.  His reviews did not lie.  He was easy to get ahold of, called me back, kept me updated on his arrival time and was completely affordable.  They even cleaned up after themselves when they were done - I'm talking got paper towels with soap and water to clean handprints off the wall!  I was highly impressed with their professionalism.  Gil will now be my go-to electrician.

If you are looking for someone who is efficient, timely, and able to quickly diagnosis your electrical needs I would highly recommend Gil and his team. I called for a minor outdoor lighting issue and not only did I luck out and they came same day, but the checked each and every socket thoroughly to ensure I was all set. I was very impressed and appreciated his attention to detail and professionalism.

I had a great experience with Gil Amor. He came out to my place on a Saturday to fix a bad outlet that was sparking behind the wall. He noticed that my overhead lights were blinking and offered to fix two dimmer switches. Because he was so quick at those jobs, I asked him to stay and hang two chandeliers that I had not gotten around to yet. He hung them and even helped me put together one of them! His prices were reasonable and he even called the next day to make sure everything was working properly.
I would definitely call him again if I needed an electrician!!!

All these great reviews are accurate.
Gil was great today. I had an electrical issue that I was very worried about and I was so thankful that he was able to take care of it.
He was even working on a Sunday, and close to New Years (it has been hard to find businesses in service this week)
My husband and I liked that he explained the problem to us and thoroughly as possible. He seemed very knowledgeable and kind and we liked him very much. We will definitely use him again.

Best electrician in LA! Gil doesn't take shortcuts. He does outstanding work that will last. Highly recommended!

Awesome service!  We had power out in 2 rooms of our house and found Amor on Yelp.  They diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly and efficiently.  The cost was reasonable and we would absolutely use them again. We almost got scammed by another company who wanted to charge us thousands for a problem Amor solved within minutes and for under $130! They also helped out with a few other electrical issues around the house.  They are friendly and honest.  I am SO glad we found Amor!  Highly recommended!

Gil was great.  I had a power outage in my entire condo unit (blow dryer) and none of the circuits in the breaker was reset.

I called Gil after doing a search online (laptop still had battery and I had my neighbor's wireless pass) and called him since he advertised 24 hours service (Sunday 1AM)

He diagnosed the situation and explained to me what I had to do over the phone. I don't know jack about electricity and he said to just find the main breaker in the garage and reset that.

He said that if that didn't work that he'd be over at noon the next day.
It worked!.

Thanks Gil.  I'll be calling you when I'm ready to install recessed lighting in my place.

Found some good reviews for Gil Amor on Yelp after we had an outrageously high estimate from another electrical company to hook up a new electronic ballast for our kitchen fluorescent fixture and put the wooden frame of the fixture back in position up on the ceiling.  

We had the new fluorescent tubes already in place, and we had purchased our own new ballast (about $15) before Gil arrived .  Gil gave us an estimate over the phone when we described what we needed him to do.  He came promptly at the scheduled time, went right to work and everything was done in about 45 minutes.  He explained what he was doing as he was doing it -- he said that was in case we ever wanted or needed to do it again by ourselves.  

When he finished, he even took the time to pry apart the old electronic ballast (it had been working for almost 18 years!) to explain what the likeliest problem might have been.  

By my calculations, Amor Electric's fee for the work was 22%(!!) of what the other company had quoted for the labor part of the job.  We have to say, though, that Gil did not have the little blue paper booties that the other electrician put on over his shoes, but that didn't seem to bother us, given the difference in the cost.  We would certainly use Gil Amor again if we need electrical work done.

Gil was right on time, came prepared with the parts necessary to complete the job, and finished quickly. He also provided some practical advice to prevent the problem from reoccurring, and the price was very reasonable. I will definitely use his services again.

I have been having a number of different issues in my home, and I wanted to get everything fixed, plus I wanted to install some new lighting also.  Gil was great on the phone. I could tell by his questions that he understood what I needed and gave me an excellent estimate on how long it would take.  We made an appointment and he was prompt, efficient, hard working and nice.  Also, I was prepared to pay to replace a couple of things that he was easily able to fix instead. So he was very honest.  He really knows what he is doing and next time I need any electrical work done in my home, I will call him again. For my work today, he brought another electrician with him as well (which we had discussed) and they were both great. Five stars........I would recommend them highly.

On the basis of the reviews posted here, we called Gil to install a vintage European chandelier--and on the basis of that wonderful experience, we called him a week later to install two ceiling fans and do other electrical work. He is thorough, careful, thoughtful and creative in problem-solving, and an all-around nice, caring, principled person. We are thrilled to have found him!

Gil is one of the nicest people, and an excellent electrician.  He helped us pass inspection and helped correct another electrician's work.  We asked other Yelper Electricians and they refused to help us.  But Gil worked with me by visiting the job site, speaking to me over the phone about the various issues (so i didnt have to miss work), performing the correction work before I paid him so we could make our deadline, and also fielding my calls and questions with patience and kindness.  He helped us ensure we did the work the right way but without unnecessarily breaking the bank.  So many electricians will upsell the work needed.  Gil truly is the most trustworthy electrician I could imagine!

I had power out in my bathroom and an exterior outlet that couldn't be solved by flipping the breakers.  I called Gil to set up an appointment.  Over the phone he walked me through some basic troubleshooting after hearing about my problem.  It totally fixed it!  He actually solved it over the phone and didn't charge me.  I really appreciate his honesty, and he was very smart and easy to deal with.  I will definitely use him in the future.

Smoke detector battery went out on a Sunday evening and it was on an 18' ceiling, so I couldn't get to it.  Gil was there within a few hours, no complaints.  Saved us a night's sleep.
