Reviews
Excellence in every way. They came the same day I called, showed up on time and we're the nicest guys.
The pricing was very fair and the two gentleman who came to do the work were clearly professionals in every way.
I will recommend BK Electric without hesitation and use them again when the need arises.
In fact, my only issue is that I could nit give the 6 Stars.
I needed to have my electrical panel replaced and my outlets upgraded. I called on a Sunday and technician came for a quote that Monday. Work then started on Tuesday. They also handled the permitting and inspection with the City. I was so happy with their services, I hired them to replace my track lighting. Excellent service experience.
Had a great experiences with BK Electric. When I was in need of a few light switch repairs and replacements, they were the first to respond and first to send someone out for a consultation.
The price was fair and the turn around was quick.
I worked with Aldo and Javier and they did a great job! They were efficient, communicative, knowledgeable, and friendly. They even took the time to talk me through what they were doing and happily answered all my pesky questions.
Thanks BK, will definitely be coming back if I ever need electrical help again!

Aldo and Mario were very friendly and professional installing 2 flush mount light fixtures. They came early, we're communicative, and completed in about 20-30 minutes. They even cleaned up some old dust residue on the ceiling from the old light fixture. Highly recommend!
I called them again for a different job and this time they arrived on time and provided a timely estimate within a few days. They seemed efficient and knowledgeable. This was much appreciated.
BK came out for free to diagnose an outlet that wasn't working. They ended up fixing that outlet and adding another. Great work, courteous, and professional.

These guys are first-rate. They have completed different kinds of jobs around our place, both inside and out. Everyone who works for them seems to be friendly and efficient, from the person answering phones (who kindly juggled their various appointments so that service could get to our house quickly) to the skilled employees who carry out their installations and repairs. Five stars for Aldo and Mario! I especially appreciate Aldo explaining the technical side of the problems we were having, discussing various possible causes and solutions, and then explaining exactly what he did to make things work. Do not hesitate to use BK!
I needed to upgrade an outlet for my dryer and BK Electric was quick to respond, very friendly, and did an awesome job installing my new outlet.
Very fast service and a fair price. I definitely recommend!!

We used BK Electric several times. We are very happy with the work. The price is reasonable, they are friendly , helped us work the system (which WE are not that tech savvy) They took time and made sure we are comfortable before leaving (Simi V)
Company came out for a paid diagnostic appointment on a circuit. They were unable to diagnose the issue, and scheduled a follow up appointment the next week. Later they left a message that they would need to reschedule and I've been unable to contact them or received any calls back the last 3 days.

Called to have an outlet installed. Nobody ever shows up or calls. Then i called at 5pm to see what happened. Woman said she'd call the technician and call me back in 15 min, she doesn't call back.
Over it with this company

We had a broken outlet and they came the very next day to fix it. They were quick to communicate and got the job done fast.
WASTE OF TIME!!!!
I woke up early and made sure to be ready before the electrician was supposed to arrive - between 8 and 9 am. At 8:15 I called because I never did get a confirmation and wanted to make sure they were coming. The person I spoke with said yes they will be there between 9 and 11 as I was hanging up.
What? No, they insisted I be home and not my family because I was the Client so I got up early and made sure I could get to work late, but they would be there between 8 and 9.
I called back and was told oh yeah, between 9 and 11. That wasn't going to work so I said they will have to work with my mom because I needed to get to work. She said great and someone will be there. My mom waited, and waited, and waited - and no one showed. Meanwhile she couldn't do anything in case they showed up so her morning was wasted.
At 11:27 am I got a call saying they really want me to be there so when would be a good time. I responded saying what - you mean my mom has been waiting and no one was even on their way - so I said no I don't want to work with them and enough time has been wasted. I will use someone else.
Then the texts started - saying they had left a voicemail and called twice. I even got a screenshot of the call log to my phone - two calls - one for 1 second and one lasting a whole 8 seconds. I know you can't even get through my voicemail in 8 seconds let alone leave a message in that time, so they just were lying.
I wasted so many hours because of BK electric and even though they offered a discount I can't trust them to show up even for an estimate, let alone for real work. They offered me a discount too, but when they are this flaky I can't really risk losing more time for them to not show up.
Came out and detected the reason why we were having a short . Found live wire on roof and capped it. Very polite and very helpful. Fair pricing . Will use again.
Great and professional service. Arrived promptly, were respectful! Would definitely use them again. I forgot their names but for their bonuses my appointment was on Tuesday morning in West LA
We had a burned out electrical outlet, which also caused power failure to a number of lights and outlets in the house. Sergio was brilliant - he was on time, professional and the best quality of all was his very calm and confident demeanor. From the moment he stepped in he said confidently and calmly that he could fix it and he did! Very neat, thorough and reassuring!
These guys are great. We had an outlet short out on us on a weekend (of course it always happens on a weekend!) and called them 7:45am on Monday morning. Within 30 minutes Aldo and Mario came out. They were very polite, professional and had the whole box replaced and rewired within a couple of hours. Very friendly, professional and reasonably priced. I would definitely use them again!

Overcommit and under-deliver. They clearly overbook appointments knowing they won't get to all of them, and then no-call/no-show the ones they don't get to.
I work from home but I delayed a couple of meetings to make the time that they preferred (12pm-2pm) only to be ghosted by them.
My project is ready to go and I'll hand it over to a company that respects my time just as I do theirs. I don't think I'm asking too much here. If you're not going to make the time we agreed on, give me a call and let's handle it like professionals.
I reached out to BK Electric after I had a bad experience with a technician through the Handy app. I initially had a bunch of switches replaced and it was had been done so poorly I needed professionals to do it right.
The receptionist was really friendly and accommodating over the phone, even though I was a bit put off by the $125 consultation fee. However, once Marcio and Anthony came out and inspected everything, they were able to diagnose the issues and give me a good price to cover everything. They even suggested future repairs I could do when it would be in my budget.
They were out the following day after the consultation and knocked everything out and went above and beyond. I luckily had some sconces delivered the night before and Marcio offered to install them as well if I wanted, which worked out great because he was able to get into the wiring and uncover another 3-way switch that needed a unique plate. Putting that together saved an extra trip and made life a bit easier.
They were really friendly, professional, and took care of all my new home needs in an efficient manner. I would definitely hire them again for future electrical jobs
Where do I begin? This company and every single person I met were absolutely lovely, hard working, kind, efficient, punctual, honest, reliable, prompt, and forthright. I had a dream experience with everyone. They treated me and my home with so much care and thoughtfulness. The follow through was amazing.
I needed an old electrical sub-panel replaced and a gfic.
Also who gave me the estimate was so prompt and observant and meticulous with the estimate and what needed to be done.
Sapir was a sweet Angel who answers the phone and was great with getting me the permit. Her communication skills and kindness and empathy were A+ along with Aldo and Jason and Elias. Every single person in this company is so hard working, kind, joyful, happy, humble, honest, meticulous and just a blessing. Jason and Elias were the two electricians who installed everything. They were an incredible team.... Super hard working and just a complete joy. Jason and Elias were so polite, clean, prompt, professional, meticulous, patient, thoughtful and Kind. Thank you SO much for doing an outstanding job at our home and for being so wonderful. I want to write more...I will write more as I think of more.
Excellent service from BK Electrics team, they are very professional and extremely qualified. I will not hesitate to utilize them again if I have any more electrical problems and will also recommend them to my friends and contacts.
The fluorescent light in my kitchen went out despite changing the bulbs. So I thought it would be a perfect time to replace it with the recessed lights that I always wanted. I contacted a few electricians through Yelp. BK Electric was the most reasonably price and had the quickest availability. I also had a pull light installed in a small closet in the garage. After a couple of hours, everything was done. I have a few other projects, and I will definitely use BK Electric again!
BK Electric Services was very prompt in their response to my initial request for service - within 10 minutes. I was provided a telephone number to call and discuss the inquiry in detail and potentially schedule an appointment. When I called I got a live person on the phone and was given availability within as soon as next day for my electrical repair. Upon scheduling the appointment I was given a 2 hour window and they arrived within 45 minutes of the first hour and quickly repaired my electrical issue. Since the repair was quicker and easier than anticipated I was given a 30% discount on the service call price which was also greatly appreciated. I will be reaching out to them again for any future needs.
I needed a new outdoor outlet, and a new outdoor motion sensor light installed on my house. David and Enrique worked fast, were very accommodating, and did a great job. Thanks, guys! I always turn to BK for all my electrical work.
**This is a duplicate post using my correct account.**
Yes, I recommend this business.
Cost: 4.5k
Needed to get a new service panel installed without modifying any internal wiring inside the home. I reached out to BK Electric on Yelp and spoke with Gustavo. He asked for some pictures and swung by a day or so later to have a closer look. Gustavo provided a quote and explained his plan to get it accomplished. I really appreciated that he took his time to explain what he had in mind. We got back to him a few days later and got scheduled. A down payment was needed, which Chanel helped to coordinate. We received confirmation that payment went through and schedule was set. The estimated completion time was 1.5 to 2 days. Gustavo and Santos ended up completing everything in 1 day. Thanks a lot for getting this done right!
Chanel did a fantastic job handling customer service and coordinating with me about the job.
The team at BK always show up and is very transparent. Rare to find reliable work nowadays.
Great job.
I quoted out several electrical companies before choosing BK Electric and I definitely made the right choice! They are very responsive and made sure to come out for my quote. All of their employees are super nice and professional. I had to reschedule last minute due to a doctor's appointment and they were very accommodating. I actually thought something was wrong during my project and they came out immediately to investigate. It ended up being a new issue, not something from my project, but they helped me fix it the next time they were at my house anyway. We now have an EV charging station at our house that works really well and is exactly how we want it! We plan to use BK for our future electrical needs. It's taken us forever to find an electrical company we want to stick with for each job but we are glad we were patient until finding the right contractor.
BK connected with me regarding an EV charging install in my home. Their price was fair, but what I appreciated the most was the transparency and advice they gave to go with a 40amp install instead of a 50amp like I requested. They advised me that I would likely overload my circuit in times of high usage i.e. summer while running the air conditioning. This means a lot to me because they are considering my particular scenario of usage. We also had a small issue with my doorbell camera losing power after the install and they came and corrected it quickly. Everyone at BK was friendly and responsive. I highly recommend their services.
We had a recently remodeled bathroom and a light fixture was not wired correctly. We called BK Electric Services after being very pleased with their previous work at our home.
Liz set up a next day appointment and sent Aldo and Kevin who were part of a previous project and they diagnosed the issue right away and made the proper repairs to the electric code.
Appreciate working with a local small business here in Sherman Oaks.
Thank you again - LIZ, ALDO and KEVIN

Aldo & Javier were awesome! Replaced an outlet in our garage that went out during the storms. Very professional, fair price, fast, friendly & on time. Thanks for a great experience.
I reached out to BK Electric Services to fix a recessed lighting can that was no longer working.
The good news is that they were prompt in getting back to me, they successfully fixed the problem, and it wasn't too expensive.
That bad is everything that didn't involve electricity.
The lighting cans they needed to remove are set in a white-painted drywall ceiling, one of which is directly over a desk. They didn't lay any kind of drop cloth or do any kind of preparation work before pulling the can out and dumping drywall dust all over everything on the desk, later asking me if I had a small vacuum to clean it up.
Additionally, neither electrician wore any kind of gloves which A) would have prevented one of them from getting shocked (which DID happen) and B) it would have prevented them from getting dirty hand prints all over the white ceiling.
On top of this, their removal of both lighting cans was so forceful that now unless they are set in very specific positions they will fall out. The only way to resolve this would be to remove the lights completely, redo the drywall, and re-install the cans, so I'll just deal with it.
I feel like any workman's motto should be leave things better than when you started but that was not the case here. Yes, they did solve the problem but they also left drywall dust and hand prints to clean, as well as lighting fixtures that, though now functioning correctly, are in a more precarious position than if I hadn't called someone to fix them.
As such, I definitely feel the service could have been better.
Ugh. I hate when you get quoted a price and then when it is done it's more than double.
I received a quote for $85 to fix my WIFI light switch. I received a quote elsewhere for $120 so naturally I went with BK electric.
The issue was the WiFi part wasn't working, so he just removed that part and left it working as a normal switch. After the electrician is done, of course, now the price is $220. Then I said, I was quoted $85. He says that's just the troubleshooting and since he put a new switch for me, it will actually be $180 now. First, don't even know how he originally said $220. Trying to rip me off already. Secondly, a switch is seriously $10, so I guess I got charged 8x the price. Sounds like they just didn't want to give me the originally quoted price.
Also, he said my original switch is faulty bc the click doesn't stick when you press it, but that's just how the switch has always worked and I have the exact same switch upstairs which works perfectly. If it does need to be replaced, then fine, but to use that as excuse to charge me double is appalling.
They technically didn't even fix my WiFi switch, they just removed it completely. I was fine with that assuming the price was $85 and I didn't want to pay more to get the WiFi switch to work. But all you're doing is removing the WiFi part rather than actually fixing it, and somehow have the audacity to charge $180. It cost me less to turn it into a WiFi switch then it did to have it removed.
To top it all off, he leaves and all of a sudden my microwave doesn't work. Luckily I noticed right away and called him to return. He had to fix it within what he did with the light switch. Glad he came back and I'm sure it was just an oversight. But I bet if I didn't catch it till later, they probably would have charged me to come back and fix what they broke.
They fix what needed to be fixed, but it is definitely overpriced and don't trust what they quote. Wish I would have went with the other place!!
I see the business responded --- so please see the photo attached. It should cost $85 to replace. I messaged other places and they were straight forward about charging cost for estimates and for services. If you are giving a quote, then make sure you're clear. I clearly asked for the price, I can't see any other way to interpret that then that is the cost.
Also, I 100% don't think the electricians time is worth $10. I said the switch is worth $10. So I assumed the service is $85 which I thought is reasonable for the work entailed, then if anything, charging me additional would be for the switch. But to go from $85 to $220 to $180 makes no sense.
The power went out for three of my rooms. It's not changing after I reset the electrical panel. I know something is wrong. I started asking/quoting/calling around after 4:30pm on Thursday and BK electrical responded within minutes. Not only they have the availability on the next day, but also they managed to come earlier than their original schedule. The electrician was super polite and friendly at the beginning. He very quickly found the root of the problem, the line was overloaded due to the wrongly installation from the prior electrician. I also asked some questions about the electric safety. The guy, Aldo, was super patient explaining to me what will be my options in the future if I want to redo my house. Greatly appreciate the timely service and knowledge.

Aldo came out to my house about a week ago to relocate a group of light switches and he did the job quickly and accurately! Aldo was also friendly and very knowledgeable.
Thank you and I will recommend BK to my friends.
I had a short and BK came on time, did a great job of explaining what happened in a way that made sense to me (someone who doesn't know much about electrical), and they finished the job on time. I'm so relieved for this problem to be solved. I also replaced my whole breaker box since it was old, but they didn't push me on doing this, which I appreciated. I'm also glad there was minimal dry wall cutting for the new line they ran to fix my original problem.
What a great experience! The team at BK Electric was wonderful from start to finish. We had to add lighting where there was none. From setting the appointment for the estimate, to install day, everything went very smoothly and in a timely fashion. Jason & Mario did the installation today & they were professional, courteous and worked quickly plus they cleaned up after themselves. We are very happy with BK Electric & will be sure to contact them for our next job!
I just bought a townhome that was flipped by the previous owner and as a result has some shoddy electrical. BK Electric came out fast and took a look at my issues then fixed them the very same day.
They even cleaned up some cosmetic issues so my place is not only safer, but looks nice. Not only that, but their pricing was very affordable for such high-quality work.

BK Electric did a handful of different electrical projects for me in my new home. Moved switches, removed outlets, and installed some outlets.
Aldo, Angel, and the team were very easy to work with. I will definitely be having them back to install some fans for me in the coming months.

Prior to BK I was going through a couple of companies that literally stopped mid way for my chandelier that needed to be hung up so it was a miracle when BK finally sent over AP and Alberto who did the job and dealt with my COVID safety OCD I have so nicely! Will be using BK for my future projects thanks to their fair prices, fast work and amazing communication!!!! thank you guys :)

BK electric installed 2 Ceiling fans in my home and did a great job. Very professional and explained the work to me. Thanks!!! I highly recommend.
Everyone I met with was super helpful and amazing - we had a 240v outlet installed and it was super easy and took no time at all!! Definitely will use them again!!
My parents had several different electrical issues in their home - BK Electric responded to my Yelp message quickly, set up an early appointment to come look at the problems, and were able to repair and replace everything in one day. Great service - highly recommend! Thanks!

My regular electrician is booked three weeks out. They were the first to respond and the first to give me an estimate. They accepted my counter-offer so I hired them. They did great work. I'm actually very pleased with the work itself. And the guys were great. Super nice and they let me hang out and ask questions while they worked.
However, this is where they lost two stars.
Highly disappointed in the mess they left behind. A couple of screws and a couple of wires here and there wouldn't have been a problem. But it seems like they didn't pick up after themselves at all. Like, not a single thing piece of scrap or debris. It was a small three outlet job and somehow they managed to still leave a mess. They left saw dust all over my washer and dryer. They knocked over a bunch of shit and just left it there. They moved over my washer and dryer and didn't move it back after they were done. And there's just shit everywhere. Debris. Punchouts. Saw-zaw blade, aluminum shielding, copper cables, insulation, sheathing. The shit is everywhere. I'm easy to please. Make the shit work. And leave my shop the way you found it. Sorry boys but while the experience was great, the work was great, the pricing was reasonable, the after-taste means I can't recommend you to anyone.
Also one of the guys sags his pants so you could see two entire butt cheeks. I get it. When I was 16 I made the same regrettable style choice. But dude...cmon. Two full, entire butt cheeks? He had to be no younger than 45. Granted, he has a very handsome ass. But I would just rather see less of it while I'm paying hundreds of dollars for an electrical job. My wife wasn't around so they didn't lose another star for that.
They'll get the job done well. Just maybe look elsewhere if professionalism and attention to detail are a priority to you.

Thanks a lot for getting this done right!
I have had BK Electric Services do some work at my house back in October, 2020 and I needed to have a few fairly simple tasks performed after having sold my house, to ensure any unresolved electrical issues were taken care of prior to the new owners moving in. One of those issues was a safety concern in that I have a newer, very powerful garbage disposal that is actually very quiet when in use. I tried to install an LED switch myself, so that the LED would light up when the disposal is on because if the water is running, the stove vent is cranking, you just can't hear the disposal and I could never get the LED switch to work. I couldn't in good conscience let that one go! Safety first!
Enrique was the electrician who came to the house today and knocked out that 'seemingly simple task' for me and a couple other things as well. I say seemingly simple, but then I had to call the professionals to have the job done right! lol Enrique is also an electrical inspector, and since all of this work done was in anticipation of the house inspection, he reassured me that the electrical looks in great shape. I appreciate his knowledge and insights regarding the inspection so... Thanks Enrique! I'm very happy with the work that BK Electric does. The crew are all very nice, very professional, and they do great work. And now my beloved house is all ready to welcome the new owners. Thanks guys!
I was very happy with the work from BK. They were knowledgeable and explained everything to me as I'm a new home owner and wanted to understand. I brought them in to require a kitchen outlet, replace two outdoor outlets with cases, and to install a fan. Jobs were done quickly and look great! Very professional and reasonably priced. Thank you!

Absolute delight working with BK Electric. I got an EV Charger installed and was all done with a free consultation in less than 2 days! Definitely recommend using their company if electrical work is needed.
Second great experience with BK Electric!!
Aldo and AP arrived in the 2-hour window that I scheduled the day before.
Aldo remembered that he had installed a patio outlet last year; I was happy to see him again because he did a great job with that and was the reason BK was the first electrician I thought to contact when I ran into a problem.
This time, they fixed my DIY switch replacement mistake very efficiently and explained how I had wired it incorrectly.
Professional and friendly, definitely recommend them for all electrical needs!

We had our toilet replaced and Octavio was very professional and knowledgeable. Also they provided me with 5 years warranty.
The team was great, they were super responsive, early to show up (but communicated they would be early) and very efficient with their work. I would definitely use them again!
Had a great experience with BK. They installed electrical for my EV charging and did an excellent job. Special thanks to Aldo for coming out and Kevin on the install. I higher recommend these guys. Pricing was very fair too!
They were very friendly, they arrived early in the appointed window, and they found out that I didn't have an electrical problem at all. It turned out that there was just a mysterious switch that I didn't know about.
Great service. $125 is their flat rate for an initial inspection, but having the problem solved efficiently (instead of routing a new wire to the subpanel) was worth it.
We reached out to BK to get a quote on upgrading from 100 to 200 amps and then proceeded to get a ton of work done: two new circuits for hardwired smoke and co2 detectors, all new outlet plugs and dimmers, 5 new outside outlets, an outlet in the basement and one behind the TV. AP and Gonzalo handled all that over two very long days and were absolute pros. They were timely, worked cleanly and I would recommend them highly to anyone. We will be using BK again to upgrade our amps in a month or two and then to do our ADU wiring when we do that next year.
Had to get an electricity panel upgrade at short notice. BK Electric were great - responded quickly, matched a competing quote and were on-site to do the work within 48 hours.
Initially, there was an issue with the work - the contractors did not properly replace/mend the screens on my crawlspace air vents after they had routed some new conduit through them. However, as soon as I reported the issue BK Electric were back on site to address the problem, no questions asked.
Will definitely be coming back here for future work.

Update we just used BK electric again and they are still awesome. We were having some issues with a few outlets in our bathroom and our tub wouldn't turn on and they were able to come out the next day. Ando and Kevin had our breaker and both GFCI plugs replaced in 30 minutes. Very professional and I still highly recommend them!

I am very happy with the service I received from BK Electric. They were friendly and professional. From the first contact to receive a quote to the actual scheduling of the services ALL professional and friendly. The technicians are knowledgeable and answer questions in the same manner. Their pricing was competitive and in fact, they even offered discounts which were greatly appreciated. I would recommend this company for electrical needs and will definitely use them again for future needs.

My experience with BK is nothing more than excellent customer service, quality installers and great communicators. Aldo and Mario were great doing the install and made everything stealthy looking for the 14-50 nema install for my Tesla charging. Aldo also educated me about panel capacities. Will do business with BK again. Thank you very much!
I can't give them enough stars, totally pro from the first phone call to solving the actual problem unlike the other 3 places I tried. Will be my go to electrician from here on out.

Aldo and Angel came to give me an estimate, arrived on time, were very pleasant and took the time to discuss different options in solving my problem.

The people that I spoke with and installers were good and courteous. I was quoted $350 for 4 recess lights. I was told parts and labor covered, with $100 deposite which I paid. At the time of installation, I was told dimmer switches were not included. I either loose my deposit or pay additional $150 for 3 dimmer switches which I had no choice but pay.
Will I go back to this company for my other projects: no I will not.

After my initial outreach via Yelp BK Electric was very communicative and easy to work with. I needed a few outlets that were old quickly replaced. Their team showed up on time offered a thorough estimate and performed excellent and affordable work.
Had Gustavo install a new outlet in my garage and replace a ceiling fan. Work was estimated quickly and to the point which is when I immediately scheduled for the work to occur soon after. He also quickly resolved another issue I was having with a separate outlet by asking me key questions where the power could be controlled, etc - through his experience and positive helpful attitude, the issue was fixed immediately.
All work was completed in a very timely manner and the work looks good. Gustavo was very responsive, fair and explained things as necessary. Pricing feels on the higher side as compared to other electricians I've used, however, these guys show up, do the work well and keep things clean - that's the cost of business these days in Los Angeles.
Have you BK on a couple of different jobs and they were very professional and responsive. Aldo worked efficiently to restore my electric car charger and even brought me a couple extra fuses in case it happens again. Would highly recommend.

William was able to fix several electrical challenges I have been having in my older house, including a badly wired outlet, flickering lights, badly wired lights, and broken light switches, all for a reasonable price. He was courteous and efficient. I would definitely call BK Electric again with any future electrician needs!
Great experience with the guys at BK electric! Incredibly professional, fast, and friendly. We had them come in to do some quick repairs and then had them install dimmers on all of our lights. We will definitely be using them in the future. 10/10!
We contracted with BK Electric Services to install (17) exterior, recessed lights under our eaves where we installed soffits.
Their first goal was to wire the areas for electrical power which they did perfectly.
Once we installed the soffits, a crew returned to cut-out the light fixture openings with a 3 1/8 inch wide, hole-saw.
However, before they started to drill the holes, they carefully measured and marked the exact places where the fixtures would be places.
They double-checked their work by using a string to determine that the lights would be lined-up and straight.
After they completed this, they carefully wired the light cans and installed them which look amazing as the lights cast a beautiful glow against the walls of our home.
The work was professional and ALL the technicians were super friendly & polite.
We will certainly use them again whenever we need any future electrical services.
Thank you BK Electric!
Amazing service. Everything went smoothly from booking my appointment to actually getting the job done. I had some problems with the breakers jumping and turning off my electricity and they got it fixed in no time with no issues. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for electrical work done.
The BK Electric Services team was great!
Marsio and his co workers did a fine job with all we had them do. Everything works great and was done very professional. Price was reasonable for the work did. Will recommend highly.
I had a heat lamp installed in my bathroom. They were punctual and very nice. They made sure that they did not ruin my painted ceiling. They went out of their way to help me and I couldn' t recommend them more highly.
I had Andrew and Chris coming over today to install recess lights in different areas, new ceiling light, and a couple of new outlets. They did a great job, faster than I expected. The company is also very responsive and schedules the appointments within pretty short period of time. Highly recommend

My experience with BK Electric was actually ongoing at the time of this review. However, due to delays, I felt the need that I could not wait any longer to leave my feedback. The initial consultation went well enough. The team provided a fair quote for the job at hand. Following some discussions over the phone, we agreed on the work (electric panel replacement and some basic wiring realignment). BK was awesome in initially setting up the work to start on the weekend to not interfere with my working from home and my daughter's zoom schooling. However, starting from there, there was a list of almost comical errors (mostly communication), here is a list of the communication gaps during our time with them:
- Did not inform me of options on the type of electric panel (wall mount v flush)
- Never informed me of complications on first day of job (power was to be cut 1 hour into visit but we weren't informed no power cut for hours)
- Did not inform me that original riser would remain despite the need for a new one
- Unclear on the final status of the wall following work; explicit conversation with staff prior to initiating job that no holes would remain after work. I fully understood stucco clean-up would be needed but not full blown holes.
- Never discussed placement of ground rods
- Failed to update on inspection time
- Criticized others work (previous work from another electrician); feels unprofessional
My frustration with this company is with all the little details. They also damaged some of our landscaping and when I showed one of them, his colleague seemed to smirk and laugh at my issue. There was also an awkward exchange with one of the owners of the company where they made it clear that this job was not his priority.
Lastly, we recently re-experienced an old issue around high winds affecting our power. However, this was resolved prior to BK's involvement through the cutting of a tree in our neighbor's yard. It's a bit odd that an issue would resurface after the introduction of their work.
Final Edit:
The issue was connected to their work. However, LA DWP came out today (unannounced) to finalize the work with a new meter and installing permanent connections. As with everything else with BK, it would have been nice to know that this was the true final step in the upgrade process. I had no clue DWP was coming and although BK couldn't say when it would happen, the fact that it was going to happen would have helped me better understand the full process.
I think overall this company needs to re-evaluate the way they communicate with the customer. It feels like other vendors that I have worked with recently reached out to confirm satisfaction with the job. I fully understand that my situation might be written off as a lost cause but they shouldn't make me feel that way.
I looked on Yelp and put a message out for an Electrician. I got a few responses but BK had great Yelp reviews and their $85 diagnostic charge seemed very fair compaired to others. I realize it says you get a 10% discount if you get them from Yelp. I forgot to ask for that.
They came to my house, were very professional and were masked. Mauricio and Jeffrey were the technicians. I had a couple of small jobs and they did it all well. One of the issues was a bit more complicated and needed some new wiring and they did this too. I had another issue with some outdoor lighting and they were honest and suggested it wasn't worth trying to make it work.
I highly recommend them and will use them again. Thank you
I love these guys. Super nice, very respectful. They installed a Tesla Charger for me. It looks great and it was very competitively priced.
Very professional, a good the job done in a couple of hours. I had a great experience with them.
Spoke to the owner polite and helpful. I submitted the requested pictures and he said the problem was 2 circuit breakers tripped. His quote was reasonable plus in top of that offered a 10% discount. His price was not close to what some companies were looking to change for just coming over to my house and looking at it.
I had an electrician come and give me a quote last Tuesday - walked them through everything I wanted done and then never heard back from them again despite me following up numerous times. Pretty disappointing.
I've updated to 2 stars because: they finally called me after I left a one star review. I was sent a quote 2.5 weeks after I paid $125 to have an electrician inspect the property. They never offered to refund this amount and asked me to delete my review as it was affecting their business.

Went with BK to get a new light pendant including a dimmer installed in my dining room. Marcio and Chris were the guys who executed the work. Both were very professional and knowledgeable. They look like twins but they swear they're not related! Jokes aside, they explained their game plan thoroughly, which I appreciated, and best of all, they were receptive with feedback of how I wanted the fixture hung. Despite running into some issues with existing wiring, they were able to figure out a solution quickly. Honest work, fair pricing, and good hardworking people. Will plan to work with them again in the future.
Quick to respond. Wasn't cheap but definitely got the job done in a timely manner in a satisfactory way.
I used BK Electric to repair a junction box as well as to assemble and hang a replacement lamp. BK's technicians arrived promptly at the designated time, were polite/well-spoken and covid-safe. The price to do the work was extremely reasonable for the level and quality of the service rendered. When I have need of an electrician for other jobs, I will surely call upon BK again.
Alberto and Oscar came to the house, made me feel confident that the job would be done right, and then did a great job. Highly recommended.
BK Electric Services did a great job. They got to my condo on time! I was late because I forgot I had my phone on do not disturb that morning. 15 minutes after my appointment time, I raced to the gate of my complex and saw Marcio there patiently waiting. I felt so bad. Then Marcio recognized me from another job I needed done 5 years ago when he worked for another electrical company. GREAT MEMORY!
I installed a new vanity light in the bathroom because the old one stopped working. But I needed help with it because even the new one wasn't turning on. Marcio and his partner figured out what I did wrong and boom! The vanity works now! Just like magic.
Marcio did a great job, again! This time BK Electric Services and I are both the beneficiaries of his skills!
They were great. They hung a 100 lb chandelier and in Living Room's 20ft ceilings in no short order, replaced some switches with dimmers and did it all the Monday before Thanksgiving.

Thanks so much for the help today. Your guys were great, quick and kind. A+
On time, affordable and reliable, fixed a breaker shortage in my circuit box in less than an hour.
On time, fast, excellent work. The guys were friendly and professional. Definitely will call them again.
Aldo and Angel came by to run electrical to an outlet for a mounted TV. They were very nice, efficient, and did a great job. Highly recommend them.
They have super fast response time and competitive prices. The employees were really nice and patient with answering questions. The service I had done was simple and they were done in 10 min. Definitely recommend their services.
Fantastic company and fantastic employees! Gustavo was very thorough when we did a walk around my house and yard looking at all the places I wanted changes and additions made. Gustavo pointed out two possibly dangerous electrical problems. I am so grateful these electrical problems were pointed out so I could take care of them.
When the crew arrived, on time, Gustavo took Gonzales all around to personally discuss and point out all the work that needed done. No time wasted, immediately, Oscar, Juan, and Gonzales went straight to work. These men are experienced, knowledgeable, friendly and neat with all the work performed.
The service and friendliness doesn't stop with the electricians in the field, the office staff is incredibly nice and gracious. Both Channel and Shelly are efficient and so nice.
All in all I had a fantastic experience and will absolutely call BK Electric for any electrical work I need done in the future.
Do yourself a favor and give BK Electric Service for your next electrical job.
Happy customer.
BK was a pleasure to deal with. Communication was simple. Pricing was very reasonable. Marcio and Anthony came on schedule, assessed the problem, gave an estimate (very fair) and completed the work promptly. They also spent some time looking at some wiring to see it we could proceed with other projects. They were forthright with both possibilities and potential problems. All in all a fine experience, and I will now use them for all future electric work we need.

I had BK Electric come out to my parent's house to inspect some issues we were having. The inspection cost was $85 and would be applied towards the cost of any repairs that would have been needed.
The employees that came out and reviewed my situation were very friendly, and also answered any questions that I had, while also resolving the electrical issues that I had which they handled as part of the inspection costs.
They did not try to upsell me on any unnecessary repairs, which I really appreciated, and gave me honest and frank answers. That kind of thing goes far with me and they earned my future business with their service.

Attic fan died on me in the middle of this heat wave. BK electric scheduled me for next day appointment at a fair price. Showed up on time and finished the job quickly. Also installed a new outlet I needed. Gustavo the technician and his helper were nice and also the office lady was very informative and efficient. Really appreciated everything was straight forward and no up-sale.
Found on yelp to move porch light from the wall to ceiling. Office was prompt to return and follow up.
Marcio came out and provided 5 star service!
Fast and easy from first call to completed work.

I searched for an electrician to upgrade our lighting and I sent a request to another vendor. Yelp asked do you want to send to multiple vendors? And BK was one of them
They quickly responded, have good reviews, and they could do an in person estimate quickly, accommodating my schedule. They were professional and had face masks in today's pandemic environment.
The prices were competitive, and they had near term availability so we went with them.
They installed/ upgraded our lighting quickly, cleaned up after themselves, and we're on time on our 2 day job. Day 1 they started on time and worked a full day. Second day was to complete job (plus some change orders we made while they were working).
Note: they don't do drywall repair or paint. That is OK as I knew this going in!
All in all - I've got future jobs and will go with them again for sure .

These guys are fantastic, and I would recommend them for any job assignment.

We needed a few light fixtures replaced, so I decided to try BK Electric because of their great yelp reviews. They were very responsive and able to schedule an appointment the next day. Aldo and Kevin were friendly and professional and got everything done even faster than expected. The prices were reasonable and they were clear about the costs upfront. I'm very happy with how things turned. I'd definitely recommend them.

We wanted to install a fan in our bedroom and get a few outlets in the house fixed that were not working when we bought the place in addition to some breaker work to fix crappy craftsmanship from previous owner. Office staff was really friendly and got us scheduled for a quote quickly the next day. BK came out and did a quick check to make sure they could complete all the work and gave us a quote on the spot. The guys Marcil & Moises were really friendly and professional and they quoted us a good price. They came back out the next morning to do the work with an additional guy David and showed up early. Got the work done really quickly and everything is working perfectly! Really great service and would highly recommend for any electrical needs around the house. Will definitely use them again if needed. Thanks guys!
BK responded promptly to my request for quotes and scheduled an appt for me the very next day. Aldo corrected some wiring in the bathroom fixture and installed two new security lights. He was very informative, efficient and nice.

Had a really positive experience getting some necessary repairs done in a safe, professional, prompt, and reasonably priced manner. The company is very easy to get on the phone for scheduling and the electricians they have on staff, from what I've seen on a couple jobs now, are knowledgeable and competent.
I sent out a request to multiple services and BK were the fastest and most responsive. They asked me questions right away to get me a quote and were able to come out the next day as they had a technician in the area. I will use them again and refer them to friends and family as it's hard to find companies that do as they say. Pricing was exactly as stated and they let me know if possible issues that could happen due to old wiring which is nice to know.
You won't regret reaching out to them and using them for any electrical services.
The whole experience with BK was great. Very responsive and good communication. Aldo came to give an estimate (for EV plug installation) and was great at explaining what needs to be done and what's possible. Even better, it was he that showed up the day of the appointment to do the actual install. Very friendly and very reliable, very fair price.

A good, reliable electrical company that services a wide area as our condo is in Monterey Park. I actually live in North Hollywood, so when I called to follow up on a visit my sister experienced, I was surprised to see their headquarters on Ventura/the Valley. Enrique had come to check a few things as our tenants complained about not having electricity in one of the rooms. He came and checked and fixed one of the lightswitches and said that the tenant needed to flip the light switch to get electricity in that other room. The next day that same light in the room went out so I called the company and they sent Enrique to come the next day around noon. He did some troubleshooting and tightened some things in our electric box but recommended that we replaced the whole thing. We ended up doing so and got a quote for the outside boxes for the whole complex. Enrique was very knowledgable, helpful and friendly. This place is great and available/open on Sundays, which is nice. They can be hard to get a hold of sometimes, but will usually call you back in a decent amount of time. A consultation is $85 but can be put towards your service.

2 of my circuit breakers broke, I just had them come for a quote. They came right away and I ended up having them fix my problem. Aldo and Alex came and had the job done in no time and were both very professional and friendly.
Aldo and Andrew installed the RH orb chandelier in my entry. They did an excellent job and exercised Covid safety precautions. I highly recommend using these guys if you have an expensive chandelier that you want hung.

We have used BK Electric Services twice and both times they were excellent. Most recently we had a small electrical fire in our kids room because the SCE transformer sent high voltages to all the houses connected to it (three electrical fires on our block). We couldn't turn our power back on until the fried outlet was fixed. BK answered our Yelp request almost immediately and had one of their electricians (Alex) who was supposed to be on his day off come out. He called ahead of time to get info on the job because he was in his personal truck and needed to stop by Home Depot to pick up supplies. Even with that he was at our house within ~2hr and systematically fixed everything. We have them coming back again to fix the other items on our list and would recommend them highly to anyone who needs an electrician.

This company was AWESOME! I highly recommend them for all your electrical needs. I called them over the weekend and they had someone at my house Monday to give me a quote and a team back out the next day to complete the work. They were very professional and well priced. Andrew, Aldo, and Santo worked quickly and went above and beyond to make sure the job was done correctly. This is the electric dream team! When they left you couldn't even tell I had had work done. I will never use anyone else for my electrical needs, BK Electric services is the BEST!
A pleasure to deal with from quote to completion all in the same day and reasonably priced.
A circuit breaker was broken. Aldo and Jose came out and quickly fixed it. Efficient and great service.
I had a low voltage issue with LED tape lights in my kitchen. They sent out a tech with expertise in this area. Very professional and figured it all out. They showed me the broken transformer and will come back to replace it.
Very easy and professional to deal with.
Ask for Alex and Aldo - these two were top notch. They had to troubleshoot an issue that the previous electrician thought would involve holes in the wall and re-wiring. Instead, they took their time to figure the issue out and realized it was instead a burnt wire at an another outlet on another wall that was causing the issue. They did a great job and saved my wall from some expensive holes
This review is coming a bit late but I can't state how happy we were to have found BK - they were able to move a light fixture, install an outdoor heater (which required reshuffling the breaker box) and rewire a 'smart' mirror in one of our bathrooms so the power was hidden in the wall. The prices were fair, the work was done quickly and professionally and they were a pleasure. Would recommend to anyone looking for qualified, responsive, and trustworthy electricians. Thanks Gustavo + Chris!
Since we've moved to our Porter Ranch home in 2005, we've had several different companies to provide our electrical needs. Each time, either they were overpriced, provided poor service or dishonest. The last company was All Electrical Services, owned by Emin Bozkurt. I've used his services so many years believing he was my electrician who cared for his customers and always called me my friend He was NOT my friend.
My Malibu lights in the back yard went out and Emin said he had to dig the ground, replaced the transformer and repair the wiring. He was asking for $1,250.00 to have the job done. I called around and after reading reviews on YELP. B. K. Electric Services' name came up and Gustavo's name as the electrician was highly praised. He IS as described by the Company's clients. He came out; checked my Malibu lights for two seconds and said nothing wrong with them. I only needed to replace the transformer (the only true thing Emin said). The Malibu lights actually did work. The only problem with them was transformer going bad. THAT'S ALL! But I could still turn the lights on and off manually because evidently, according to Gustavo, someone tempered with the transformer dial. The pins had been yanked out, making the timer not working properly. Gustavo's charge for parts and labor was $250.00. So i actually wonder what the heck HAPPENED to the pins.
I'm glad I had Gustavo do my Malibu lights. While at the house, he repaired and replaced other electrical issues I had with a very reasonable price.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND B. K. ELECTRICAL SERVICES and GUSTAVO as their electrician. God bless people like this company and Gustavo who are honest and unto the Lord they work, to help people like me who need their services.

This company did a great job. 20-year-old home with really noisy bathroom vent fans. Could not get anybody to do it, they came in knocked him out, no fuss no muss. I would use them again for electric services. Extremely nice crew, and they really knew their stuff.
They did a panel upgrade and Tesla charger installation. Aldo and his team did a fantastic job. Timing and communication with the administration weren't great. The owner was going through some health issues. At the end I am very satisfied.

Friendly office assistant responded to Yelp inquiry in the first half hour on a Monday morning, picked up the phone instantly, and booked me same day within a two hour window. 2-worker team politely listened to my concern and worked quickly to diagnose and repair my situation and charged me their minimum diagnostic fee (I would have milked myself for a bit more!). Highly recommend, thank you BK! You'll be my first call when we decide to upgrade our panel to accommodate 220V EV charging.
Great job. The guys took care of the problem and installed a new outlet cover. Definitely recommend!
Gustavo and Martin, gave me clear information regarding how they would install the fixtures I wanted, navigating me through some of the trickier bits, the day he came to assess the situation. Gustavo, Alex and Vlad installed all of the fixtures beautifully and were extremely respectful following all Covid protocols. I will definitely be using them again.
They did an excellent and efficient job in installing the lights in my downstairs bathroom. The price quoted in person was a little higher than the estimate but it was still better than the others I received and they were in and out in twenty minutes or so. The installer was friendly and I would definitely recommend.
The guys were great, job was well done! Wore masks, cleaned up after their job. Would highly recommend d and will be using them again for electrical.

Terrible. Most reliable company I ever had to deal with. I submitted for a quote on Yelp and they were quick to respond (gotta hand them that) and said they could be out the next day. I turned away other companies thinking I could count on them. NEVER SHOWED OR CALLED. I then contacted them to see what was happening and of course Chanel begin to apologize and said they would make it up to me with a discount and could get to me next day at 10:30am. AND AGAIN NOTHING. NO CALL NO SHOW. I called Chanel and of course the usual and this time she PROMISED someone will be here today. GUESS AGAIN! NOTHING!
Just an absolute waste of time. I should have kept my appointment with the other companies.
These guys were fast, professional, and helpful. On a recent afternoon, I was looking for an electrician to install a ceiling fan on my patio, and additionally to split the electrical line so that my lights could be turned on separately. They called in about 5 minutes!! And the next morning they showed up for an estimate and stayed to do the work, which was terrific! Many, many thanks!!
P.S.: I still haven't heard from the other guys!
Wanted to change out my ceiling lights to can lights and BL Electric was amazing. Turns out the space between the floor above and the ceiling I wanted to install the lights was too shallow so they were able to customize the can to fit the ceiling. Amazing job and for a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend, sweetest people.
We had a ceiling fan that required an install and we knew we needed professional assistance since we didn't have the proper box installed to hold the fan. We called BK and they were able to provide service early the very next day. They came in wearing the required ppe as well as foot coverings to accommodate our request. Marcil and William were pleasant, professional, and thorough. I would recommend BK to anyone looking for electricians that they can trust. Thanks again for taking care of us so quickly.
Their bid was competitive, they communicated the scope of work I wanted to have done, suggested pertinent changes, showed up on time, the work was good, and we haven't had any issues with what they did. Exactly what you want to have with an electrician.
We switched out older MR16 recessed lights with LED. Should have done it sooner.
On time and experienced. Job done professionally for estimated quote.

This review is way overdue. Alexis was super responsive and very accommodating and helpful. She kept me in the loop from the moment of getting up the appointment, the day of when the electricians got there, and followed up once everything was completed.
In terms of the actual work, David came with one other guy and they assessed the lighting issue within 5minutes. This was insane because I had another company out there a few days before and the guy was there over 3hours trying to figure out what was wrong before I ended up just asking him to leave! I didn't have time to go get the supplies needed to replace the light fixtures so him and his team actually went and got it for me which was amazing! Everything was complete and done within a few short hours and the cost was also very fair and reasonable. I literally have them saved on my phone as a favorite and will never call another electrician again.
Thank you thank you!! You guys are amazing
Both guys that showed up at my compound, were super helpful and Alex came back the next day, as he did not like some of the work they did the previous day, to make it right....totally unexpected but that just shows how much pride they have in the work they perform.
Gustavo and Marcio probably literally saved my life! The wiring in my apartment was 95 years old. That's not an exaggeration, it's from 1922 and never updated beyond replacing fuses with breakers in 1995. I didn't know this of course until some mysterious electrical symptoms led me to ask the new owner of the property to try a new electrician, because the previous owner's handyman had never seemed to get results.
Check out the pictures for what they found! Wires melted in the walls, patched with electrical tape multiple times, sockets sparking inside the walls... Basically it's a miracle that nothing caught fire already. Everything was in such poor shape it disintegrated in the guys' hands as they pulled it out of the wall!
Gustavo and Marcio, along with a small crew, managed to complete a full rewire of the apartment and two attached garages in two days. It should have been more like a 4 day job but they knocked it out in two, staying until 9 pm the second day to make sure everything was done. They even found a sealed-over junction box in the living room ceiling and installed a new light & switch, making this the first time I've had overhead lighting in my living room since moving in!
These guys were BEAT after a 13 hour day but still carefully cleaned up and tested everything before leaving.
What a difference versus previous experiences with electrical work. I felt comfortable leaving my home all day knowing the guys would take the appropriate care while working, and I was able to ask as many questions as I wanted to. And, as a millennial I especially appreciate being able to text Gustavo when I'm away from home while he's working there.
I've asked my landlord to please use nobody else for electrical work ever! Not that I should need any more... I think everything is in good shape to last another 95 years now.
If you're like me living in an older home with mysterious is it haunted? electrical issues, do yourself a favor and get these guys to take a look. I had a huge fire hazard lurking in every room of my house and didn't even know. I'm still in shock!
And, bonus, they like dogs very important in my household which is run with an iron paw by a very selfish Pomchi who has totally forgotten her humble beginnings as a street dog.
Amazing! They were professional and fast! We called for a quote over the weekend (needed outdoor outlets installed) and they came that day to check out the work we were requesting to have done. The quote was fair so we hired them on the spot. I figured it would be a week or so before they could do the actual work but they came the next day and did everything! Super professional and really nice. Hire them!!

Made an appointment but they never came. Was a waste of time talking to them, setting up an appointment that never happened and just waiting without a response. Couldve booked somewhere else but lost a day. Very unprofessional.
Gustavo and his crew installed recessed lighting in our old 1950's bedroom and added a light switch and dimmer.
And he even fixed the asymmetrical lighting in our living room by rearranging the existing recess lighting.
He is professional, neat, courteous and very efficient.
I will be asking for Gustavo again. He was a pleasure to work with.

Gustavo and his team did an awesome job upgrading an exhaust fan in our bathroom with a stronger fan that also had a heating component. They also installed an outdoor outlet for us.
BK was recommended to us by our realtor, but I submitted a quote request blind through Yelp and quickly got a response back from Alexis. The day of the quote I was actually running a bit late, and Chanel was able to bump our appointment by an hour with little advanced notice (thanks!).
They were the most thorough of the three outfits we had come by, as well as being the best price! Gustavo very carefully worked with us to make sure he knew exactly what we wanted and where. They were also very detail oriented, making sure to run dedicated power from our panel for both projects once they understood what we wanted them to do (heating element and driveway gate motors, respectively), trying to avoid putting more holes in the walls than necessary, and offering me a number of options when it came to how I wanted to source the exhaust fan.
Scheduling with them was incredibly easy, they came on time, and they did the job and tidied up after themselves on completion. 10/10 would use them again for electric work!

I was lucky enough to find BK Electric on Yelp and they responded immediately. Offered a free estimate, I told them I needed the job done same day. Moises and David called before coming like I was told they would. Looked at the work we needed and gave us a quote. Was a little above our budget for what we needed and they were kind enough to work with us. The two of these gentlemen where kind and very professional. They cleaned up after themselves and left everything clean. I definitely will be using them again!!!! If I could give more then 5 stars I would.
Waited 11 years to replace bathroom exhaust fans from the 80's. They were reasonable and knew what they were doing. Arrived when they said they would. Very courteous & polite. Even swept the bathroom floor afterwards! Definitely recommend.

Needed some electrical work done on my house. The guys from BK Electric were courteous and wore masks, came up with solutions and made them happen. Clean, professional work -- up to code -- for the price they said they would do it. Absolutely would hire again. Thanks guys.
I had half of the outlets in my house suddenly stop working and BK sent out a team the next day. Aldo and his crew were very professional, on time, and were able to pinpoint the issue and got it fixed within the hour. They're true experts in the field, and after talking to them I learned a lot about the wiring of my house, common issues with outlets, and how to troubleshoot things. Will definitely be using them in the future!
From start to finish BK Electric services were phenomenal. Chanel went above and beyond to get someone into estimate for the job and then organised two amazing electricians to be with me at 7am on a Sunday morning. The guys that arrived were brilliant, quick, efficient, knowledgeable and all round delightful.
Fully recommend this company, you won't be disappointed!
Thank you BK Electric, you are now my go-to's!

A fast response was offered first . Then a text cancelled and re-scheduled.
Finally 2 guys came estimated 2 ceiling Leds +1ext outlet + 1 int outlet at $750 ....!!! Revealing ... adios ...see you in a while crocodiles !
True professionals and a FREE on-site consultation. Every other place I called wanted to charge $50-$100 just to come quote the job. They scheduled within a couple business days and got the job done well and at a good rate.

Everything about our service with BK Electric was 5-star. Customer Service was responsive and helpful (we changed our appt multiple times and they were friendly and accommodating). The team they sent arrived exactly on time (when does that happen?!) and were courteous, professional and did a thorough and amazing job. Highly recommend.

I am very picky when it comes to honor, especially with work and prices. The entire team at BK Electric was very communicative from the owner and the family on down. It's hard to find integrity and good work all together. Highly recommend. A+
Wish that I could leave a one star. Future customers beware! I was having problems with my air conditioner so I contacted an air conditioner repairman. He came and told me I was having issues with the electrical breakers and to contact an electrician.
I contacted BK Electric Services after reading mostly good reviews on yelp. I was quoted 85$ to come inspect my breakers and then a price of service to be given when the electricians were on site. The operator told me to text her a photo of the breakers and then confirmed an appointment time later that day.
When the electrician came, I was then quoted 125$ per hour of services. The electrician stated he would trouble shoot the problem for the agreed upon 85$ and keep me updated.
Fast forward to 30 minutes later when I am told that there is no apparent problem with the breakers. He will continue to troubleshoot the electrical work to see if he could find the problem. 15 minutes later he tells me that he has done me a favor by moving some wires on the thermostat and fixed the problem. He also states the fee has changed from 85$ to 225$ because of this work he has done. I was shocked at the rate change from 85$ to 225$ especially after I had not authorized him to even do this service.
He kept justifying the situation saying that I had seen him move the wires around on the thermostat. I was so shocked that I paid him and he left. Afterwards I felt completely duped and upset due to the lack of professionalism and respect given from the electrician.
I contacted the company by phone 4x yesterday. I left two voicemails and a message on yelp with no response.
Today, I called again to the company and left a voicemail asking them to return my call. The company called me back and stated their phone was not working due to power outages and bad phone reception. Cell phones don't receive signal when it rains? Anyways, I explained to her the situation and she said she would talk to the electrician and call me back.
Surprise. Surprise. Not a call back. I have called her and she did not answer. Not sure what kind of business this is but definitely shady and unprofessional. Would not recommend. Customer beware!
Alexis is awesome! Super helpful and very transparent on the call. She was super honest and answered all my questions in full detail. She didn't pressure me to buy anything, and I could tell she genuinely cares about making sure the customer gets what they truly need. Thanks Alexis for the A+ support!
I can't thank Gustavo and Aldo enough! I had installed my own dining room light and did an incredibly crooked job of it. Gustavo and Aldo were quick and prompt in fixing it for me, and walking me through why it had been crooked in the first place! They also installed a new ceiling fan in rapid time. They were clean and efficient and answered all of my pestering questions. I will definitely use them for my next electrical mishap. :D
Thank you so much BK Electric for your super quick response. I was able to get a quote and have my project completed all in one day. Very professional, fair pricing, excellent work!

Be careful when dealing with this contractor. They say that there's no service call fee but they charge you 3 time more. They don't provide any estimate until they issue the invoice. I disputed the false charges until it was reduced to almost 1/3 of what they invoiced me for.
When I received my credit card statement, I noticed that they charged $12 more. I asked for explanation, they said that it was for credit card processing fee, which they never disclosed that. They refused to refund the extra charge therefore I had to file a dispute with the credit card company.
Don't deal with them. They are a bunch of thieves.

Aldo and Junior came out to check on some lights that had gone out in my kitchen. Right when they got there and took a quick look, Aldo was able to tell what was wrong with the lights. He knew exactly what to do to fix them and explained everything that had to be done in the clearest way. So helpful and so quick!! They replaced the parts with newer models giving my kitchen an instant upgrade. They were both so great I will definitely be calling them again for any electrical issues!

Sooooo - I got a nasty gram from Alexis who did nothing but call me names like evil and miserable for simply stating that I don't agree that any company should charge someone to come out and give an estimate. He has sent me the following:
Liron N.
You need to read and that was not me by the way someone else in the office. 125 for diagnosing means working and troubleshooting the issue and see why you have a tripped breaker. We cannot access by just looking. An estimate is FREE that is just looking what you want to do not troubleshooting a problem. Everyone has a fee for troubleshooting. And the troubleshooting fee would be applied to the job. So before you go ahead and write a nasty review because your bored and miserable and people like you make the world just a bit worse by trying to ruin a business. My name is alexis and dorothy was the one who answered you very nicely and you went ahead and wrote a Nasty False review you don't understand simple english
So beware before you use them. I asked him to stop messaging me and he won't so I told him I would update my Yelp review to share with everyone what he has said. I was not trying to ruin his business, simply letting everyone know who was looking for a good electrician like I was at one point, that I was disappointed that this company would charge a fee to look at the problem and give me an estimate to have it fixed. So glad that I did not use them - I can't imagine how much worse this could get.

Really great! Incredibly fast response time and they (Gustavo and his team) were also able to schedule an appointment quickly and make last-minute appointment time tweaks, when we needed to move things.
Very professional company and I highly recommend them. They installed multiple smoke/carbon monoxide alarms for us and tested some of the outlets. They really came through for us when we needed them. Wish I could give them more stars. They went above & beyond.

Moises and David are two of the nicest people in the business. He was so honest and brought an insight to my project that to General Contractor failed to bring up. I was so thrilled that I have a chance to interact with them. As a woman it's always a little intimidating to speak with an electrician but they left me at ease. Highly recommend!
Liked it that more than one person showed up for the job and one of them gave me his cell number so I could call or text later with questions. I ended up having a question so this was helpful. The job I hired them for was replacing fluorescents under the kitchen cabinets with LED lighting. I ended up having them come back to do more replacements because I liked the work so much. They installed dimmers too at their suggestion since LEDs can be much brighter than fluorescents. They gave me an estimate for costs on each visit and stuck to those estimates. No hidden charges. The workers wore masks and cleaned up their mess. Would recommend this group.
These guys are awesome. Called in the morning and at noon they were at my house looking through the project that i had and by monday morning the crew was ready to go. The project took 4 hrs to finished, clean job, even made me a working outlet for easy access. Best price and honest!

If I ever had another job, I would never call this company again or recommend them to any friends or neighbors. They use shortcuts (wiring on outside of the house instead of under the house) from the back to the front-grounding wire) when there is a problem like having to repair drywall damage in the house because they cut through into the house installing an electrical panel.
Customer service is very good with communication.

Wow! Two days ago, another electrician spent over 2 hours trying to find the source of 1.5 rooms that suddenly lost power. Finally, he apologetically said he was stumped & left (and was honest enough not to charge me). BK dispatched 2 electricians this morning who were able to isolate & repair the problem in less than an hour! I will definitely use this company again for any tasks requiring an electrician. Thank youk
Aldo and Andrew quickly assessed the issue and fixed it. Friendly and professional.
I have mixed feelings about this company. The first time they came out it was great. They completed the work timely and were able to figure out a dead switch was connected to a hard wired smoke detector that use to be the location of a light fixture. I was told I could get a battery operated smoke detector and put a fan/light in its place as long as the box could withstand the weight of the new fixture. I purchased a light/fan and booked a second appointment for installation. Second time they came, the guy from the first appointment was not there. The electricians installed the fixture without issue, but when I told them I wanted to have the switch working again he told me it wasn't possible. They also asked me about the battery operated smoke detector, screwed it in and then charged me for it without telling me beforehand there was going to be a fee. It's easy to screw in and had planned to do it myself. I would have declined if I knew there would be a fee for that. Literally two screws into a ceiling cost me $30. I know I was charged separately for this because he called someone else to ask how much to charge for the ceiling fan install AND to install the smoke detector. Fast forward months later, using the remote for the light/fan was frustrating. I call and tell them I was told the switch can't be fixed but that doesn't make sense as the first guy who came out said it could. I paid $40 for them to figure out where the switch went the first time they came out and the electrician showed me it could be turned on and off. It was not repaired at the time as the hard wired smoke detector was still in place and it needed to stay on. Third appointment, different guys again and I am told he has to take the fan off to look at wiring for the switch. I end up paying $125 for them to fix the switch (for reference the fan installation including putting it together and screwing in smoke detector was $185) when it should have been done at the time of the fan installation. I basically had to pay them to take the fan off again to see the wiring to fix the switch. Guy also said it's a plastic box holding the fan which is unsafe and not designed to hold the weight of a fan, only a light. He recommended it be replaced with a metal box due to safety concerns. I don't understand why no one bothered to mention this during the installation of the fan. I basically used the fan unsafely all summer hanging from a plastic box. Third guy says it will be $200+ to replace it with a metal one. My point is, the service is great depending on who they send out. I feel like I had to spend more money because the people they sent out the second time were not thorough in their work. Whole situation has been frustrating and more costly than it should have been. At this point I don't plan to hire them again to replace my ceiling box and will go with another company (I immediately hired someone else and replaced with a metal box for my safety). That was a lost opportunity on their part to gain an additional job had they alerted me of the safety issue when the fan was installed in the first place.
From the quote to the finished job everything went terrific. The two men that came out were very experienced,knew what they were doing. Had six living room ceiling lights installed. Professional, courteous .very clean. Covered all furniture, etc.. Extremely careful with the furniture and our art. Would highly recommend. I know that if we have any future jobs we will call them.

So I'm sorry to say that i thought they were going to be great. Ther initial consultation was great! The manager told me initially gave nee a quote for $950 to $1000 but might change depending on the work. Then went up to $1100 because the job increased and then ended up at $1200. I was ok with that but i expected ther job to be completed with patching if holes were made and to patch whereintial wires were. The manager never told me that they did not do that. After the job was complete she told me it would only be $2-300 more dollars to finish by hiring someone else. Very disappointed because i would have possibly gone with someone else but i thought i was going to have this job completely done.
Don't waste your time with this company.
I made an appointment with Chanel for an electrician to come to our home between 2-4pm. They also said they'd call before arriving. It is now 6:30pm... and no one ever showed up, no one ever called. I've never experienced a licensed contractor just flat-out ghosting on a customer, but here we are.
I decided to then scroll through some of their other reviews -- and, shock, it seems I'm not alone. This company appears to have a habit of flaking on clients. (Let alone the strange $125 troubleshooting fee you must agree to before they even come out).
Listen, just don't waste your time. There are so many other electricians out there who deserve your business.
Please use BK Electric for all your electrical residential or commercial needs. They are extremely reliable and provide great service. We have used them on a few of our medical T.I. projects and have been very happy with the results.
These guys basically ignored me. I tried calling and they took my info and never called me back after over a week. Left multiple messages on yelp with no response.
AVOID. The initial consultation was great, and I had high hopes. However, the resulting mess of work should serve as a warning to anyone looking to hire an electrician. There were three jobs to be included: installing a 240v plug for a new dryer; installing a plug into a stove hood; changing out a plug that had some strange wiring. The junior apprentice scratched the hood while wiring in the plug. The actual electrician also installed the wrong plug for the dryer. Upon discovery, I called BK back. They told me the repair would be fixed today between 330 and 530. I called at 4 PM for a status and was assured the technician would be here no later than 5:30 PM. At 5:30 I called and was told I would receive an update. I then received a text message from the technician 10 minutes later apologizing and saying he would not arrive until 6:20 PM. That could have been communicated a lot earlier. Since I don't live here and my family is waiting at home for dinner, this isn't just an inconvenience - it's a complete disregard for the value of my time and encroaching on the needs of my family. AVOID.
I have used BK Electric on two projects now on the same site. They are timely, excellent quality and have superb communication. I appreciate that they are straightforward about what work needs to be done and they are quick and clean when they work. If you are looking for a good quality electrician, look no further.
I needed 18 recessed lights to be out in and also my electrical panel upgraded. Marcio and his team came in and were very professional in their recommendations and fair with their prices. They ended up doing a great job and were really respectful of my space. I highly recommend them. The booking was also very efficient and Chanel and Adi both explained the pricing and services well.
Remodels are never fun However I called BK electric and they send a electrician the next day. He was right on time and very professional. I had 4 pendant lights hung in the kitchen and a large chandelier in the entry replaced.
I did receive a quote on a few exterior light fixtures and planning to have them installed in a few weeks. Thank You for your professionalism I highly recommend BK electric.
We spent over $15K with BK electric on the renovation of our house. There were amateur mistakes along the entire way - from not showing up when they said they would to showing up without the proper equipment to do the job. It was laughable. In the end, the job got done but we are now stuck with LED lights that FLICKER like crazy.
BK once again promised to send someone out a X time on X day and of course nothing. Not even an email to reschedule. As an interior designer, I find GOOD SERVICE to be almost MORE important than anything else. Gustavo is a nice guy yes, but overwhelmed - I think the company spreads him way too thin. We are now hiring other electricians to fix their sloppy work (yes, it might be a manufacturer issue on the LEDs, regardless, BK has no interest in helping us figure it out). Glad to see others have had a better experience than us but sounds like they were all small jobs....

So glad to find them! I gave them a call and they were able to come out the same day to Encino.
I needed an outlet in the carport to charge my new car.
Carlos and his crew were very informative and efficient. The outlets was done in no time!
I can now charge my Angela (my cars name)!
I no longer need to drive out to a charging station!
& as they were here I asked for a quote on adding recessed Light in my apartment. Will be calling them soon.
Highly recommend.!!!
So thanks for the fabulous job Gustavo and his crew did with our backyard lighting! Installed outlets, cafe lights and walk way lights. The finished product looks great and we can't wait for it to get dark tonight so we can use the lights!
Gustavo and the crew were on time, very friendly and professional. They showed up wearing masks which I appreciated in these crazy covid times, cleaned up and communicated with us the entire time during the installation.
Can't say enough good things about Gustavo and crew. Would definitely recommend this company! Will absolutely call again! Thanks so much!

Needed to install a new line and outlet for an electric stove and dryer. BK was quick to respond, they came by the next day and gave a free estimate that was totally reasonable, and they came back a few days later and did the job. They were very professional, polite, and good at what they did. I'd definitely recommend them. Also, their office did all the coordination which was really helpful.
The absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced from any business and I am including the post office and the DMV in that category! Two different times now I have had appointments and they did not show up. Alexis is the absolute rudest person I have ever dealt with. She doesn't write down appointments and then she blames the electricians for not showing up.
The first time was our appointment for a lot of work to be done. When I called because no one showed up she clearly had no record of my appointment and was obviously scrambling to find somebody. She totally lied to me and pretended they were on their way but in fact she never actually made the appointment. Then 45 minutes later the guy finally shows up. He tells me they were on a different job and they had to pull them off and sent them to my place. I was 45 minutes late to work and she never even so much as apologized for the screwup. She even tried to blame the other girl that works in the office even though I wrote down her name when I made the appointment and I'm 100% sure that I talked to her.
The second time they were supposed to come to fix something that they installed incorrectly (yeah the work isn't great either) and again nobody showed up. I regret doing any business with this company and wouldn't suggest their services to anyone I know.

While I see plenty of good reasons to hire BK, I am very disappointed that their rep stood us up for a meeting. We were given a two-hour window for the appointment, with the promise of a call 30 minutes in advance. The call never came. At the end of the two hours, I called BK and was told the rep would not be coming (something about being stuck in traffic.) No apology. No offer to reschedule. No matter how great they do the work, it means nothing if they don't show up. They caused us to lose 3 hours of time going to the property and waiting. We are busy trying to get our new home ready and have no time to waste. Why should you depend on an undependable company that doesn't value your time.
Scheduling was a bit of an issue both otherwise the service was great.
I asked for a quote through Yelp and they were fast getting back to me, recognizing that they were close. They called and I asked if they could do same day after 3. They asked if I could do write at 3 or maybe 3:q5 and I said I could. At 3:20 they followed up and said the technician was 2-30 minutes away. He arrived an hour later.
BUT once he got there he was friendly and professional and figured out the best way to get my ouiside GFI working again. It was not just a bad GFI but a bad connection which he was able to fix efficiently. Great work.
We had bk electric services come out and replace our system to an upgraded version it was a bit outdated and hard to use. They were terrific. They also change out about 85 recessed lights and made them LED's.
I highly recommend them if you are looking for an organized and efficient company.
Gustavio and Marcio are both amazing. They did excellent work. I'm very happy with their service. They always come when called and help me out. They have a great attitude and get the job done.
I appreciate that they always give me the price before they start. Hightly recommend.

Working with BK Electric was a great experience from top to bottom. I called to ask about an appointment Monday afternoon around 4 pm, and the guys were at my door at 8 am sharp the next morning. They assessed the need, talked through their VERY FAIR pricing, and immediately got to work. When one of the tasks would require cutting into my drywall, the electrician worked to find a solution that would cause as minimal visual damage as possible (ultimately hiding the opening behind an appliance and a metal cover.) The guys were very clean--vacuuming and wiping all surface areas down before they left. I will absolutely use BK Electric again if needed.
Had a great experience with BK Electric. I submitted a request on Yelp on Tuesday evening and got a call back the same night. We scheduled an appointment for the next day. The repairmen arrived on time, replaced a flaky outlet, grounded it, and left the area spotless. They did everything right. The thing that most impressed me was calling me right away the same night I sent the request.
Came out on time and got the job done within an hour. They installed an outlet an 2 smart lights. Great service highly recommend!
Gustavo was an A+ electrician. He understood my needs and wasn't trying to gouge me. He gave me honest advice and got the job done in a timely manner. 5 stars, highly recommend!
We called Bk for an emergency on a Sunday afternoon. Within minutes they were very helpful over the phone, helping us trouble shoot. They were ready to send someone within 45 minutes. Very professional and very friendly. Will use them in the future 100%
Definitely would recommend BK
electric.
Called for a quick outlet repair at 9 am and they arrived by 10.
Gustavo and his guys were great and did an awesome job.

I found bk through my HOA. My condo gets really hot seems like the AC is not strong enough I had bk come install ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Enrique and vlad did a great job. I was worried about having workers in the house during Covid 19 but they made me feel very comfortable when they showed up wearing masks, gloves and booties. They cleaned up and they even replaced an outlet for me for a minor fee. I highly recommend them especially during these crazy times they are well equipped.

A crew of two electricians came over at the scheduled hour to performe a few tasks around my apartment.
I was very pleased with the result! The job was well done and the electricians were knowledgeable and professional. The price seemed fair and the work was clean and quick. Highly recommended

Gustavo and his team were amazing to work with. I had several projects that needed to be done asap and they really put in the effort to squeeze my projects into their busy schedule and got everything done within 3 days. Very professional. Highly recommend!
Wonderful experience! We added a 240v charging station for our electric car, had two outdoor outlets installed, and an indoor 240v outlet changed to an 120v . The team was very punctual both times they came out. Pricing was very fair. They said it would take all day but it only ended up taking a few hours. They were polite, thorough, clear on expectations and pricing, and just over all very nice guys. I would absolutely recommend them to family and friends.

I had so many things on my electrician to do list for over a year and finally had time to book someone to handle it all. BK responded to my request Instantly, came immediately and fixed it all very quickly. I would 100% recommend them to anyone!
I set an appointment. No one showed up, no one called to let me know if they were going to reschedule. I called the office no one called me back. Based on that experience I leave a one star review.

Fast, friendly and helped us understand what to do next time we have a similar problem. Thanks!!
Had them do two things - put my bathroom fan on a switch and install a light fixture in my dining room. They were responsive and came quickly. It looks great.
Gustavo and Martin were professional and knowledgeable. We recently bought a house and the wiring was a mess, but they helped us focus our energy on the important tasks to keep things safe and working around the house.
I Highly recommend B.K Electric Services for their quick and professional service. They were prompt and did efficient repair. Very impressed with this company and will keep them on speed dial should anything every pop up again! Thank you B.K. Electric for doing such a great job for us!
Gustavo and Aldo added outlets for us. They were on time. Knowledgeable. Fast and clean. They don't repair drywall but cut small holes making repair easy. Also, offer service at time of estimate. Suggest get other estimates first. These are nice guys who I would use again.
Very Professional installers. Was only expecting one person to show, but to our surprise we had two installers. We moved an Outlet location as well as had them install a Chandelier. We were worried that they would have to open up the wall to accommodate the moving of the outlet, but the installer did everything possible to thankfully avoid having to do that. Great company and great team that came out to us.. Highly recommend.

I don't usually write Yelp reviews but I just had an absolutely fantastic experience with this company! Marcio, David, and Bladimir installed 12 new canned lights throughout our bedrooms. From the very first call to when they stepped out the door, it was all handled with extreme care and the utmost level of professionalism. Thank you so much to the entire team who serviced our house with such a quick turnaround! Less than 24 hours after reaching out, all lights are installed! Very happy with this decision.
They came to install a chandelier and did a messy job and left the old chandelier (which belongs to my landlord) in pieces all over the floor missing parts that I still cannot find. I will now have to pay for that chandelier, which was in brand new condition before they touched it. They also charged me a fortune - $450 for a job that would have cost $150 anywhere else.

Gustavo and Aldo were great! A bunch of lights went out in the house right before the long weekend and they came out within a couple hours. Both were very courteous and wore masks they whole time which I appreciate. The problem is fixed so I am pretty happy.
I had BK Electric come out to fix a lamp and install two sconces. The two electricians were kind, quick, COVID-safe and best of all their prices were less than 1/2 the cost of other people who I got quotes from. I won't hesitate to use BK electric in the future for any needs I have!

B&K came very highly recommended by a very close friend. I was having issues with my electrical panel and garage door opener lI called on a Thursday and Alexis said her people would be there at 8:00 am on Monday. I was texted by Alexis to expect them there at 7:30 Monday morning and the team was there 20 minutes early.
Liron was very organized and professional and very trustworthy. I left the crew at my house for @5 hours. When I got home everything was spot on.
The bill was itemized and fair. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to a friend.

Oh my goodness. Gustavo and his crew were amazing. I had about six little projects that they completed well over a couple of days. He was responsive via cell when it came to arrival time. Upon completion we walked the jobs and I was assured that it was done well. On the morning of the second day, our school lost lighting. He took time to troubleshoot the problem and found an electrical fire. Amazing to have such a professional team.
I had a couple of small things that I wanted to add to my condo (a couple electric outlets and the installation of a Sense energy monitor) and the guys as BK Electric Service were very quick to respond on Yelp and even came out to give an estimate the same day. Their pricing was far better than what I was quoted by another place and the manager seemed very thorough. The work was very good and the guys who did it were nice, but I can't quite give them five stars for two reasons: 1) although they had floor coverings for part of the work, they also didn't have coverings for other parts. On top of that they had dried mud on their work boots that fell off in places and I had to clean up the dirt as well as some of the other work debris that they had left behind. 2) although everything works perfectly, the install of the energy monitor was not the cleanest install I've seen and there were other little details about the work that kept them out of a five star rating. Don't get me wrong, the quote and service was fast, affordable, and they got the job done- it just wasn't quite 5 stars.
BK Electric got back to me FAST, and provided same-day service within just a couple of hours. We were out of town at the time, and were renting out our house. The guest let us know of an electrical issue (turned out to be an overloaded circuit.) BK Electric came quickly and fixed the problem, and took payment over the phone. Great job!

Showed up promptly, got to work right away after clarifying what needs to be done confirmed estimate and got the job done as expected. Fair price.
We had BK Electric come out to help fix our electrical panel after a large tree branch took out our overhead service wire and damaged the panel. They ended up needing to replace the panel so we decided to upgrade to a 200amp service in the process because if we where going to replace it anyway, mine as well upgrade.
BK Electric was professional, courteous, fast, and did the job right. Alexis responded to 100% of my messages and inquires quickly. The city came out and inspected the work and it passed. Everything plus the inspection was done in less then a week.
Highly recommended!
We had an electrician come to the house to replace dimmers and he did a great job, even had a suggestion to soften the light, which worked well. Fast, dependable and responsibility prices. Thanks and we will see you again soon
If you need a licensed electrician this company is THE PLACE TO CALL,excellent customer service
and they sent a team of 3 electricians to troubleshoot the electrical plug system of one particular circuit at my client's condo(I am a contractor myself)and this trio managed by their expert troubleshooter : Gustavo,arrived within an hour from my original phone call with a respectfully happy face and thoroughly inspected the circuit and made a precise diagnose.
Thank you YELP for helping me find this great companies!!
I also take this opportunity to mention something
I have read some bad reviews about this company where people are complaining about
Having paid $125 dollars for electrical troubleshooting,they obviously have not clue of what it takes to stay in business,they don't understand the cost of having employees come to your door and complying with all laws and regulations,they rather pay $50 and take a risk of a fire hiring unlicensed unknowladgable electricians .
Quality and knowledge costs.
Recently, I've been having electrical issues which was affecting my internet connection. After doing research and reading some reviews I hired B.K. Electric Services. I am very satisfied with the fast communication and quality work. Their electricians Moises and David were knowledgeable, attentive, and courteous. Thank you so much for the high-quality care.

Gustavo and Marcio are THE BOMB! They arrived very quickly to my business (I own a small coffee shop) and accessed the issue rius to get us fixed up....ght away. They offered a no bullshit, honest assessment!
BK Electric came to my home this morning to change my master bedroom ceiling lights to LED's and I have only the highest praise for the work that Rufino and Marcio did for me. They were extremely professional and informed me exactly what needed to be done as well as explaining the different kinds of LED lighting (3K, 4K, ect) that would be best for my bedroom. Highly recommend!

BK did a great job on inspecting and repairing the electric in our commercial unit after a fire. They were there on time, knowledgeable, worked meticulously and at a reasonable price with good communications and no surprises. Thanks BK!
I had an issue with multiple outlets all failing at the same time. Called BK Electric and they sent out an electrician within 4 hours from the initial phone call. I assumed that the issue would be so simple that I would be embarrassed with a service appointment that would last all of five minutes. Well, it turned out to not be that simple. The electrician Mauricio spent an hour troubleshooting the issue. He finally discovered that one of the GFCI outlets had shorted out. Problem solved and the price was fair. Mauricio was very professional and thorough and explained clearly why it happened and how to stop it from happening again. Great company!

Showed up early to the job. Gustavo and his crew were super professional, clean, and did amazing work. Alexis at their office got me all my paperwork for my landlord and was a pleasure to work with. Would absolutely hire them again.
BK Electric responded immediately to my inquiry. Gustavo came out for one quick job and I liked him and his efficiency so much they came back the next day for more work. They called 30 minutes in advance both times and showed up as promised within the 2 hour time frame. I would use them again.
My wife worked with Alexis from the start. She was very knowledgable and professional.
Her crew is amazing! impeccably professional and nice guys. found BK Electric through a website she visited and they came highly recommended to install an extremely heavy-duty chandelier for our entryway. This wasn't your typical chandelier. This was one of those let's get it up there and do it right the first time so we never have to do this again and not have it fall on our heads since it
TL;DR
Five stars all across the board. Gustavo and Marcio pretty much saved my house, if not life.
My circuit breaker tripped this morning. I didn't think much of it and tried to reset but it wasn't working. I was supposed to catch a flight at 5pm but wanted to make sure everything was OK before I left. I reached out to about a dozen top-rated businesses on Yelp and also called LADWP because I was worried about it being a safety issue.
LADWP gave me an emergency appointment so they arrive within a half hour or so. BK Electric responded very quickly and were set to arrive shortly after LADWP.
Long story short, me and the gentleman from LADWP smelled a faint burning smell around the circuit breaker and other areas. We searched everywhere and couldn't find any fire so he eventually left, stating I could call the fire dept if I felt uncomfortable.
A short while later Gustavo and Marcio from BK arrived. I told them what was up and they immediately took me under the house to the crawl space (something LADWP didn't even suggest). It was there we saw very recent fire remnants, still smelling quite strong. Everything was burned to a crisp. Vents, thermostat wire, insulation, and many other electrical wires.
These guys stayed for well over an hour JUST helping diagnose the fire. Keep in mind, they thought they were coming over to help a girl fix a tripped circuit breaker; not to solve the worst thing that can happen to a homeowner in Los Angeles.
They told me what the next steps were, safety wise and logistically. Then they told me to call the fire dept and file a claim with my insurance.
Gustavo and Marcio were so incredibly kind, informative, knowledgeable, and helpful. I will definitely be using BK when we finally fix this mess.

Needed them to come out and look at the electrical short in my gate system. They came the next day and were thorough and honest. They walked me through the cause and I appreciated that. Gustavo was very knowledgable and patient in helping me understand the issues.
A friend recommended Liron and BK Electric when I bought my current home three years and was renovating. Liron helped me figure out how the place new lighting, make recommendations and then set his guys to work. It was a major project with new lighting and wiring in almost every room in the house -- and it was done PERFECTLY.
Two years later, my neighbor's gardner inadvertently cut one of the power lines to my house, and my refrigerators and much of the lighting was out -- Liron sent his guys within 30 minutes, and reworked the electrical panel to give me enough power for the fridges, and then switched everything back when the power line was reconnected three days later. DISASTER AVERTED, all because they were so quick and good.
Liron and his wife Alexis are wonderful -- warm, very focused on their customers needs, and immediately responsive when I've needed electrical work. I cannot recommend them enough!!

They came to check my usage because my electric bill suddenly skyrocketed. They found nothing, were nice, wore masks. Then, because we talked 4 minutes into the next hour, they charged me for a full extra hour ($85). I was in shock and handed over the check, but hours later, still felt gross about it so I called the office. She said she had to talk to someone. I called the next day. She said she'd call the guy who charged me. I never heard back, clearly because I was supposed to take the hint and go away. I'm never using them again. Others may say they do good work but just KEEP AN EYE ON THE CLOCK because they're a little unscrupulous.
Great response time, great service will definitely use again Gustavo and Marcio were awesoms
These guys are great. I forgot that I used them once before after a disaster up-charge with Powell Electric on a simple job (Powell needs to pay for all those commercials some how, eh?). When BK arrived they said, nice to see you again and I forgot that I hired them 2 years ago to hang a light. Good memories!! They replaced a bad circuit breaker and redid some outlets and were in and out. Very professional and will use them every time.

There are a lot of topics that I can talk about how wonderful and time saving my experience is with BK electric services but I will just give you a brief and trustworthy summary. They will not waste your time and their service is just remarkable. I highly recommend BK electric services for any of your electrical repair or installations.

If you look at my review history on Yelp you will see that most of my reviews are very positive. THIS IS NOT A POSITIVE REVIEW. In fact, if I could have given them ZERO stars, I would have.
Ladies, do not trust this company. They have a very sweet girl that answers the phone and sets the appointments and then they send out guys that will take advantage of your lack of electrical knowledge!
I wont go into the long story but the short of it is that they didn't show up for their scheduled appointment - two days in a row, charged me $750.00 to supposedly clean or refurbish my small pool circuit breaker and then, when I had another electrician take a look at their work - his words: You got ripped off big time. There were spider webs and cut wires all over the circuit breaker box so I'm not sure what refurbished means to them. The second electrician told me that the circuit breakers that they may or may not have replaced (because they didn't show up when they were scheduled, I was not home when they ended up doing the work so I really have no idea if they replaced the breakers or not) should have cost a maximum of $300.00- $350.00 So basically, they charged me $450.00 for labor. A job that took them about 1 hour. They may have gotten away with highway robbery on this old lady this time but hopefully my review will save some unsuspecting soul of the kind of people behind BK Electric. How do people like this sleep at night?

Gustavo is THE MAN. Personable, knowledgeable, great attitude and awesome to have around. We had a complicated job and it was completed quickly and properly. Will only be using BK for electrical needs from now on!
After moving into our new condo in Toluca Lake we were scrambling to find electricians to install a few light fixtures... BOY, it's such a hassle to find electricians or company that are reliable (most of them don't even bother to call back to let us know their availability when they say they will!!) - it was SUCH a painful process, until I found out about BK!
Alexis on the phone was super helpful and quick with the scheduling, and Liron and his guys were very friendly/courteous during their work. Was VERY happy with the results and they will DEFINITELY be the first place to call when I need electricians!
I called BK Electric in the morning, they were here within a couple of hours. In addition to the main thing I needed taken care of (a GFI outlet that was spontaneously failing) I was able to get some other small things I have needed for a while completed. Marcio and partner were very professional and very pleasant to work with. They did a great job I will definitely call them for anything in the future. Thank you!

Great response time and service! I submit a quote request and they responded really fast! I would recommend this place to family and friends!
Found BK Electric through houzz in a request to fix a generator. Spoke to them on phone and they sent someone over the same day. On the phone, I told them my battery was dead but I thought it was dead because the unit would not turn over, and it kept pulling power from the battery, eventually draining it when it auto tested. After several visits they eventually solved the problem.
aldo and andrew installed 2 smart ceiling fans super fast and super clean. very friendly & professional 10 out 10 would recommend

I called BK Electric Services yesterday for some electrical work I needed done on a house I just purchased, and they came out today and got it done very quickly. On top of that, I had a few other electrical questions/issues and they quickly answered those and/or fixed them on site. They were responsive, quick, extremely friendly and professional. We're new to the area and BK Electric Services will definitely be our go-to electricians from now on!

I had an issue with my condo's bathroom electrical and was only in town for two days to get it handled. BK Electric was so responsive and got back to me on a Sunday to schedule an appointment for Monday morning. Gustavo and his team came out first thing Monday and handled everything immediately. Most importantly they were honest and quick!! He was super patient, friendly and was happy to explain everything to me step by step. I would recommend them to anyone!
Gustavo and Moises were great! On time, efficient, professional and explained clearly the process. Nice!
Jay and Marcio showed up on time and did a great job. They worked quickly and put up with the kids asking them a million questions. I will use them again.

Came ASAP to fix, repair, install lights and a new fan in my bathroom and in hall. The overhead light and fan were a fire hazard and needed to be replaced! Everything works wonderfully, now! They also informed me of a gas leak in the garage! SoCal Gas came out it and fixed it. BK Electric Services is quick and trustworthy. Really helped me. Thank you!

Great service! The technicians Gustavo and Marcio were on time and very knowledgeable. They gave us multiple options for our electrical needs and were very polite and friendly.
Great electricians! Knowledgeable and very efficient. Installed an outdoor ceiling fan. I recommend this company.
I called in the morning to have some outlets fixed and was scheduled to have technicians come out that same afternoon, which was great as I needed the work done quickly. The two guys, Marcio and David, showed up on time, wearing masks, were professional, clean, quick, and friendly. The cost for troubleshooting, repair of outlets, and replacing a breaker in the main panel was very reasonable. They completed the work quickly and were on their way. All in all a great experience with BK and would highly recommend them for any electrical needs.
This team is superb! I work in Pasadena, live in Woodland Hills, and my mom's house in Santa Clarita experienced a major electrical failure. Alexis was not only excellent in coordinating a pressing schedule, she was kind and sensitive to my needs and availability. Gustavo and his team arrived just ahead of schedule and performed a thorough examination and provided a detailed estimate. The cost was reasonable, but more importantly, the value delivered far exceeded the amount paid! The job was executed with the highest levels of professionalism, the site was kept clean and orderly, and the entire team was responsive to every inquiry.
I highly recommend Alexis, Gustavo and the entire BK Electric Services team for any important electrical work!

Bk did a magnificent job on my home pictures don't do it justice. They installed recessed lighting throughout and pendant lighting in the kitchen with an old school looking Edison bulb thats led! Our master bedroom is now bright and beautiful with led recessed lighting. They also put outlets on the walls for TV. The holes were so minimal and the patching they did was phenomenal it looks as if the outlets were always there. They were so cautious with everything in our home and made my wife and I feel completely comfortable.
B.K. Electric did a great job. $1000 cheaper and two electricians (Marcio and David) showed up and were nice, efficient and very knowledgeable. Did a great great at a great price. Will hire them again.
BK Electric Services is spectacular at what they do. I've contacted them twice regarding electrical issues at my home and both times they've delivered in a timely manner. Alexis, in particular, was very kind and knowledgeable throughout the entire process (If you're reading this - thank you!). The work was done very quickly, they are incredibly responsive and the cost was much less than I expected. Overall, I would highly recommend contacting them for any of your electrical needs.
Had an issue with my smoke detectors and they set me up with a whole new set. They did a great job and got everything i needed done in a short period of time. Thank you for your help!

BK Electric Services took care of my house after renovations. There were some wiring issues that needed to be taken care of ASAP. I contacted them and they were able to give me a quote right away. Gustavo and Marcio were true professionals. They were on time and finished the work quicker than I had imagined. The work they provided was very good quality. They answered my questions along the way and even gave me some pointers. I recommend their services. They don't rip people off. Check them out.

Gustavo and Moses were excellent fast and on time work was done completely and professionally, will hire them again & again. Thanks guys!
Wow, super fast and extremely professional services. Spoke with Alexis about a smoke detector installation with permit and she was able to scheduled me in for the next morning. David, the technician, and his partner arrived early and waited patiently. Did the job quick and very professionally! Afterward, contacted Alexis about the permit and she took care of all my worries! Thank you for the excellent services!
In December the support group for our local library paid BK Electric Services to string holiday lights on a tall tree, to subsequently remove them and then to store them. They did a fine job hanging the lights, but now it is the end of April and the lights remain on the tree. They refuse to return our innumerable calls - even to discuss the repayment for services not rendered. This is no way to treat any customer, but perhaps particularly it is no way to treat a library!

These guys are great! I called them for a few projects: I wanted to remove a fluorescent light from my kitchen and install recessed lighting, swap out a few vanity light fixtures and install a new chandelier. They were easy to work with, skilled, and a fun group. Everything turned out great and I would highly recommend them.
Quick to respond to my request on message and did solid work when they arrived. They seemed knowledgeable and priced appropriately for the job that I needed to have done.
SO RELIABLE AND PROFESSIONAL!!! I call for an estimate, I was having some electrical issues with my home. Spoke to alexis she was professional, pricing was reasonable, scheduled an appt the next day with no hesitation. Gustavo and Moses (the electricians) showed up early, I showed them what needed to be fixed, they knew excatly what they had to do and they did it in just a couple of hours. I'm very pleased with the work and customer service....I will definitely hire them again!

One star for doing good work, prompt and efficient.
Loss of four stars for customer service. A technical glitch affecting payment caused them to call yelling--YELL-ING--threatening to:
*rip out all the work they did
*put a lien on my house
*file a lawsuit against me
If I did not pay, WITHIN the HOUR, for work done TWO. WEEKS. EARLIER.

Very prompt service. Friendly. Fixed it at the same time they came to diagnose the problem. Would definitely recommend to a friend and use again for my electrical needs.
I hired BK Electric Services to remove a old ceiling fan and install a new light fixture in our living room. The light fixture was big and heavy and definitely needed a professional. I contacted them and scheduled the appointment and got a quote. They were very easy to work with. They came by the next day to complete the work. They did a quick job. I thought it would take longer. I also had them check on an outlet that was no longer working. I recommend their services.

These guys know their stuff. Very professional. SHOWED UP ON TIME. Called to confirm the appointment. Walked me through the issues, and were very thorough. We tried to switch light switches out ourselves, having zero electrical knowledge, which caused issues to the electricity in other parts of our home. They were able to resolve the issue quickly. If I ever have an electrical problem again I'm definitely calling BK Electric.
Very disappointing considering prior rating. Guys that showed were not very knowledgeable and didn't honor phone pricing. Left work undone. When I called to complain we played phone tag a few times but I guess customer service is not important enough to call me again. I would avoid if possible.

BK Electric Services knew just how to brighten up my new house. The lighting was old, has an orange tint and was making the house dark. I wanted new lighting but didn't really know what would be best. Marcio helped me a lot by giving me tips and pointers. He showed me examples of lighting in other homes, which gave me a better idea. They replaced the lighting in no time! I had the guys install new outlets on the kitchen island, also. They were beyond professional. I recommend their services.
I am having a custom closet installation which required an extra outlet and switch work. Most of the companies I reached out to would've made me wait weeks before they were available, but BK came out on the first date I was available and got the job done per the requested specs in an hour. Their rate was fair, they did the job and they cleaned up before they left. I have a few other projects with a new house that I'll need an electrician for, I'll definitely call on them again.
These guys were here on time and figured out not only what my outlet problem was but figured out that I had another wiring issue and a breakers issue. They don't fix on the one issue...they look at the bigger picture.

We woke up on a Sunday morning with no working hot water, and noticed that the outlets in the kitchen weren't working. We called and they were able to send Liron out a few hours after I called them. He found the problem and rearranged schedules to get a team out first thing the next morning. He even gave us a temporary workaround for the hot water to get us through. The team showed up as scheduled, added a dedicated circuit for the water heater and got the kitchen circuits working. They were upfront about the price and explained exactly why they needed to do each part of the job. We would not hesitate to call again with any electrical issues.
Marcio and Carlos were excellent. On time. Quick. Fair price. Alexis set it all up, and she assured me that I would be in good hands. I was. And now I always will be - you guys are officially my guys. Thank you !!!
BK Electric were professional from start to finish. Arrived on time, experts at installation and clean up after the job. I would recommend Carlos and Marcio, the electricians, for any job.
I had a great experience with BK Electric. I first scheduled them to install a ceiling fan and an outlet for an electric car. They've come back twice more to install new LED flush-mount can lights, new pendants, and sconces. Marcil was super helpful while we selected and then changed our minds about the LED lights and was very responsive in scheduling the appointments. Overall, I've been pleased with our experience!
Service was amazing! Electricians did everything we wanted and even suggested some ideas to avoid any electrical problems in the future. The guys arrived with a great attitude and were very well with communicating with us with any updates. Electricians were very knowledgeable and helped us to make good decisions on our panel upgrade and so much more things that we have not even requested . They went above and beyond to make us happy We're having them back to do so much more!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! This company definitely deserves my 5 star review. I've never dealt with such an easygoing company. Bk electric services made it very easy on me to fix the problem I was having at home. I called BK Electric services told them about my problem and right away they scheduled me in for the same day. The electricians were at my house 2 hours later . They are quick and professional . You can tell these guys know what they are doing . Very impressed !!! Will definitely be a returning customer !!!

AWFUL SERVICE
They scheduled me twice -
the first time - they werent able to come out - and actually misquoted even though i was VERY clear i needed to install a ceiling fan that was with tall ceilings and kept me waiting a good 4 hours before they realized they couldnt do it.
the second time - they kept me waiting 4 hours, and then still weren't able to deliver. I cancelled most of my day to do this.
They wasted 3 days of my time with back and forth. I would HIGHLY recommend you not come here.
Thanks BK Electric - good work and done efficiently - I will call again

I could not be happier with BK Electric and the service I received. Alexis was so quick to respond and easily accommodated my schedule. I was blown away with Danny and Mednick who worked my job. They were quick, knowledgeable, and efficient. They both were super positive, smiles, happy and nice to be around. Sometimes having strangers in the home is creepy, but not these guys! I'll 1000% hire them again. Great job!

I am joining the previous reviews in recommending BK Electric Services. I have hired Gustavo and Marcio on several occasions to do a variety of electric installation and repair projects at my house. Each task was performed perfectly and on time. Even a complex undercabinet multiple LED lights job was completed exactly as we wanted, with tidy clean-up and clear explanation of work. Gustavo and Marcio also fixed recent work done by another electrician, tracing a hardwired telephone line under the house and relocating it to a new jack. Gustavo and Alexis have been invaluable in advising me what electrical switches and lights to select and how to best update my home's electrical service. Rates are reasonable and they always complete their work on one service call. I trust their expertise and I'm pleased to have them work on my house.

I was in a jam and needed a licensed electrician to pull permits and hardwire smoke detectors for a rental unit within a short period of time. They gave me the lowest estimate, made suggestions on the best way to go about the work, pulled the permits and finished the work quickly. I would definitely hire them again for any electrical work I need done in the future.
Great job, friendly service. Gustavo and his team were first rate. First time I've used them, but they jump in front of everyone else I've used to date.
I wish we would have found Liron sooner. The electrician we hired prior abandoned the job thankfully he did not do too much. Long story short Lirons sent a crew in for the rescue. They were fantastic they finished the job in 3 days when the previous electrician said it would take 7 to 10 days. Liron is wonderful and is very responsive via text and phone calls.
Wow, what a great experience. I have a very old house and needed to upgrade my electrical panel after a shortage occurred. BK was fast to respond and had a technician out the same day !!! Definitely going to recommend to friends and family

They came and did all the small jobs fast! Pleasant and prompt. I would use them again.
Really questioning the legitimacy of the favorable reviews here. Shoddy work, poor communication and no GUARANTEE on the work done. None. It's electrical work, you need to hire someone you can trust. I would never rehire BK. Had them out to replace outlets in a house I had just purchased (estimate around $800-$1000). Upon their recommendation the outlets had to be rewired due to the cloth covered wires installed in the '50's. Cost goes up to over $5100. I move forward because I didn't want to take the chance of a fire from older wiring. After the job was done I learned that an outside outlet didn't work. I contacted Alexis, it took them a few weeks to get someone out here to fix it - but they came out and did the job. A year later, I'm having work done on the outside of the house and discover that the same outlet isn't working AGAIN. Contacted Alexis, she told me she would have someone out to look at the problem - no one ever showed. I've left four messages for them - no one returns the calls. They got over $5100 for the job - they have no guarantee. They don't return phone calls after cashing the checks. Spend your hard earned money with a company that has a bit of ethic and will stand behind their work. This company won't. Save yourself the headache and hire someone else.

Marcio and Rufino came by to take care of my 3-way light and wiring issues. They were very proffesiomal and took care of the problem quickly, would use again, thanks.
I needed some work done in my condo in encino. I agree with the other reviews the crew that was sent out were quick and professional. I will for sure call them next time!!!!!!
Customer service was great during the job. But, after we made our final payment, they've never responded to my messages.
Hired BK electric to come by and install a ring doorbell and a ceiling fan. Gustavo and his crew were extremely fast and competitive with pricing. They also did a great job installing the fan and cleaning up. I also got a quote for more work down the line. I would highly recommend using these guys for any electrical work.

BK electric saved the day! When I had a huge flood in my house on sunday, they had a plumber and an electrician over asap to assess the source of the problem and help me get the water and electricity back on. Everyone was super responsive and helpful during my emergency!
A woman (the owner? not sure) from BK Electric Services is harassing me via text now because I left this negative Yelp review. She is threatening to sue me for slander if I don't take the review down by Noon. I have filed a Better Business Bureau complaint about this company and will share the results of that, which I know will be in my favor. This company left my house mid-job and ruined one of my outlets that was working.
Awesome job! These guys came out last minute to help us with a kitchen remodel and did an amazing job! Marcio and Gustavo were knowledgeable, fast and did a stellar job. They are my new go-to electricians!
Called these guys out to wire up a new spa. Gustavo and Marcio were able to come out right away and get the job done quickly. They were very professional and did a great job. I have found my go to electricians! Thank you BK Electric Services!!!
Gustavo and Marcio fantastic and quick with the service. My smoke detector went off at 6AM and they were here within the hour. Great customer service!

My husband and I were unbelievably pleased with the work that was done.
Douglas the foreman and his crew were on time every morning. They took into account that we could not start at 8am and were very happy to help us and start at 9am. There was an addition added to our house and the wiring was messed up and things were not working properly.
Douglas and his guys ran a few dedicate circuits and wiring for the new spa we got. Liron the owner who initially came out to us was very pleasant and did not make us feel rushed to start the job like we felt with several other contractors we got estimates from. He really knows how to run his people and business. Thank you.
Just had them come out and do 10 recessed lights in my living room also fix many problems i had with receptacles / kitchen lights & fan.
Very happy with there service, came in and out very fast and professional, even took a look at my breaker box and pointed out a few problems that I'll need to attend to later.
Now sure about the other people, but i was very impressed with there service.
I could not be happier with professionals at B.K. Electric services. They were on time, efficient, made virtually NO mess, changed a switched, a light dimmer and ENTIRE fuse box! In about ONE hour. They were very polite and very nice. The pricing is reasonable as well, they didn't pull their fees out of the a$$ or anything. Charged us exactly how they quoted. It was pleasure to have them around.
Thanks guys!

Stellar company to do business with. We have been looking for a new electrician for years & stumbled upon these guys (Angie's List recommend) while we were also dealing with an emergency home flood situation. The Project Manager, Liron, came out on a Sunday exactly when he was expected. He assessed our issues & came up with a game plan and assigned an excellent crew - Jay and Mauricio - who were at work the next day to start and then stayed with each phase of the project (some re-wiring and a new panel). Liron and his crew could not have been more professional or courteous. All in all, a pleasure to work with under very difficult and trying circumstances. Would not hesitate to recommend this company. And plus, our dog LOVED them (he's the best judge of character).
Well he certainly was a great salesman and we paid Liron $2000 for a new panel and $6600 for electrical work on our 1400 SQ FT house, including what we were told were state-of-the-art LED recessed lights (manufactured by a company owned by a friend of his). We have blinking lights in every room and one breaker that continues to pop due to an overloaded NEW circuit.
After weeks of excuses about how he'll come back and correct these issues we've heard nothing. I do not recommend this contractor!
Seriously, these guys were great! Had an electrical problem with my master bedroom, they came within my time frame, the time I wanted and they fixed and put in my ceiling fan, replaced the electrical box for a great price! Gustavo was great! Didn't feel like I was getting ripped off like Powell Electric! Would recommend if looking for a good electrical company!

I called BK Electric Services on Labor Day weekend after trying 10 other electricians and got no answer. Luckily a lady answered and gave me advice and walked me through an electrical emergency I was having. No charge, no need to have someone come out, i fixed my issue in my apartment complex and got my power back. Really professional and friendly. Definitely recommend and will keep in mind for the future
If I could give this company 0, I would. I spoke to Alexis at this business who asked me to send a picture of my project and that she would get back to me right away. When I called two hours after I had sent her the picture for the estimate, she hung up on me and thereafter wouldn't answer the phone. I left her a message letting her know that I found her actions unprofessional. She texted me 8 hours later to call me @#$%. I asked her not to text me again, which she ignored and proceeded to make threats of contacting my manager and the LA Building and Safety Code Compliance Department. She had gone off the rail since she doesn't know know who I am. I strongly warn against hiring a company. Apparently others have given BK Electric a low score due to Alexis's conduct. If they want to keep in business they should either fire her or give her some serious training on costumer service protocol.

Alexis was extremely unprofessional. I scheduled an appointment for a diagnostic test for Thursday at noon. Alexis confirmed the diagnostic appointment but the electricians never showed up. Later that night, I called Alexis about this situation but she never picked up the phone and instead texted me around midnight Thursday they would show up the next day. Well, the next day I called at noon to confirm the Friday appointment since they didn't show up the previous day. Alexis picked up and again confirmed the appointment, but said she would call me back about any changes. Again, the electricians never showed up. I tried to call Alexis Friday night about the two no shows but she never picked up the phone or responded to my text. I still have no clue as for the reasons for the no shows. Zero communication and meaningless confirmations. I will never call this company again and I will tell all my friends to steer clear of this unprofessional company.

promises.promises....I kept calling to have a job done but i keep getting promises of call back. The work might not be big but keep up to your work ethics. Don't ever let a customer wait. If you think that the work is too small for your busy company, just tell them outright you can't take the job!!!!

Called company and was told I would get a return call at a specific time. Never got the call back until the following day when my negative review of the company showed up on another consumer review website. This isn't the first time a call back came only after a bad review. To me it seems like this is just another company with lots of demand that is more concerned about themselves than the customer. Nice to know sites like these can reveal the truth. P.s. The excuse was they had an emergency.....if I had a dollar for every time a contractor didn't call me back or show up to an appointment and then told me it was an emergency I'd have lots of dollars! Cheers to Yelp!
Our electrical job was not the biggest- basically changing out a number of light fixtures and chandeliers - but BK was fantastic. Got in touch with Alexis & she kept us informed on the arrival of Gustavo & Mario - arrived on time and got right to work, completed the job efficiently and for exactly the price quoted. Would definitely 100% use them again and refer them out to others.

Insanely solid work. BK Electric is super quick, dependable, and easy. I was so amazed at their work that I would 100% refer them to a friend and if I need more work to be done, I know who to go to. Great Job BK Electric!

The heavy rains last month revealed some bad electrical work done to my house that I previously not known about since I moved in last summer. I was having issues with a circuit breaker tripping. I set up an appointment with BK Electric and they dispatched out Liron quickly to meet with me to resolve this issue. Some investigating revealed it was a larger problem than anticipated due to wiring work that had been previously done by someone who was most likely not a licensed electrician. Liron was able to offer a solution and schedule the work.
Additionally, he suggested I upgrade my circuit breaker panel from 100 amp to 200. He said it was strange for a house my size and age to have been built with a 100 amp box. LADWP confirmed this as well and the LADWP rep was very confused that the builders would have used such a box. I contracted BK Electric to upgrade my panel. They handled the permits, inspections and stucco repair as well, which made the experience for me very easy and seamless. I was very appreciative of all their hard work and efforts. I'll definitely reach out to them in the future for my electrical needs.

We have used BK Electric several times, Liron is always reliable, quickly and accurately assessing what needs to be done, and his prices are fair and reasonable. He and his crews always show up on time, and Alexis always keeps in good touch about when we should expect them. BK Electric is our go to electrician, and we've recommended them several times to friends.

I cold called Alexis hoping to get a better idea of how much a big project would cost on a house still in escrow, and she was more than happy to help me and give me a better idea of what the project would cost. She seemed very knowledgeable and took the time out of her day to talk to me.

I'm a new, first time homeowner and I needed a pretty big electrical job done that involved upgrading my panel, relocating the service, installing several new outlets, and fixing a couple of minor wiring issues. Alexis, the office manager, was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the process, moving around some scheduling so it could be done before I had family visiting from out of town. They did a ton of work in a single day at what, to someone who is inexperienced, seemed a very reasonable price. In addition, Liron offered to install a proper covered outdoor outlet on my back patio at no extra cost (simply because he noticed it was an indoor outlet with no ground fault interruption and not up to code). Then on top of everything, my house was kind of crazy that day because I had also scheduled the delivery of a new mattress and bedroom set, and they worked around that smoothly - one of the guys even helped me move the new king size mattress to the bedroom when he saw me struggling with it alone. The only ding I would give is that we had a miscommunication about the way the location of the old panel was covered, because I didn't understand it needed to remain accessible as it's acting as a junction box. But my overall experience with Alexis, Liron, and his crew was overwhelmingly positive.

An electricians number is not one thats just hanging around on your contact list. The power in our house was going in and out for a day I did not think much of it until it happened again and again. I realized I was in dire need of an electrician. We are in studio city the first ones that came up were bk electric. I had given them a call and Dorothy set up an appointment. We had Marcio and Carlos come out to see what was happening. To make a long story short the wiring in our home was about 40 years old which I had known they told us that most of the outlets were not grounded properly. We went for a re-wire of our home. They were a crew of 4 guys in our home for about 4 days. They were incredibly polite everything has been working since and now I know to add this number to my contact list.
Liron and his team did a fantastic job at my house, have the best costumer service, they spent time explaining everything, the price was great, work was done fast ! I'm very pleased with this company.. Thank you!
Liron and his team did an excellent job installing outdoor lights and identifying and fixing some interior issues. They were fast, friendly and left everything clean. Liron was very helpful in following up to adjust the lights, and making sure everything worked perfectly. I would definitely recommend using them.
The work that was done ended up being very good quality. I had to stand my ground to make sure the job was done as promised. I didn't appreciate the way Liron spoke to me. Basically he was very defensive when I questioned an aspect of the completed work. (I wanted a brick to anchor the electrical tube instead of the wood they used against the ground. I was worried the wood would quickly rot from the water that collects in the exact area and just wanted something that would not rot like a brick or cement piece.) Liron had the guys do a nice job but I did not find him professional enough. He was so angry with me and annoyed to have to fix the work. They did other lighting and I've had no problems. Maybe he was just having a bad day.

Very poor experience that is reflected in other poor reviews of this business. Found these guys on the internet. Liron was sent out to evaluate the job right away and was told he would resolve my electrical issues and would offset the $85 service charge for the visit against the cost of the job. LOL, never saw the guy again ! Numerous calls and voicemails went unanswered. Occasionally I would catch him live and he would tell me he would get back to me but was busy eating lunch or out-of-town etc ! He never called back. After all these shenanigans, Liron then tells me he couldn't do the job and threatened me if I wrote a bad review. What does he expect when he's acted so unprofessionally ? I now see others have had similar unpleasant experiences. Customers should be treated with respect . I'm not going anywhere near this small company ever again and I'm sorry that I ever found them in the first place. I guess you win some, you lose some ! Guess what, my advice is to stay away or risk being treated badly like I was.
These guys are awesome! I found them on Craigslist several years ago and was a bit skeptical since there were not referred to me by anyone (which is how I usually do business). I remodel homes for a living and my go to electrician at the time was injured and could not assist me. BK services came out exactly when they said they would, were very familiar with dealing with all of the compliance, permits, and meeting the inspector when needed with LA Dept of Building and Safety, finished on time, and were very reasonable. Both Alexis and Liron who run the company are very friendly. I have recommended them to other people in my industry and several friends in need of an electrician. I never think of using anyone else.
B.K. Electric came out after we got one other estimate from another company which seemed way out there so we wanted to compare. We have a fairly complicated house that we just purchased for rental purposes. Its a 1920's home so we needed to rewire it. The first company that cam out told us they would really have to break and make major holes in the wall do the electrical rewire, upgrade the panel and relocate it and patch and paint. They gave me an outrageous price which did not seem to my boyfriend and I so right. So when Liron came out from B.K. ELECTRIC, He did tell me that the job would require a holes but not to the extent of the other guy. Liron also got me someone to do the patching and painting. I felt really comfortable with Liron and felt like he was being very honest and telling me its a very old house some part of the house had plaster the house was a mess. But I felt confident after he gave me the estimate and the price was far more reasonable than the first estimate that I got.
He was very organized he spent almost 2 hours at the house with my boyfriend and I going thing by thing that needed to be done and wrote EVERYTHING out. 2 days later he sent me a formal contract it was so great to see it so detailed. The first guy sent me a 1 page proposal saying rewire and panel and the total. Liron went room by room detailing what he will be doing. We signed the contract and he stated a few days later. His crew just finished the painting and the before and after is incredible.
My boyfriend and I want to extend our greatest appreciation for the hard work that was done. It did not look easy there was so so much dust they had to change masks every 3 hours! They did a great job. Liron really made sure we were happy every step of the way.
We could not be more happy and his quality work really comes out. If you are looking for someone who is honest I suggest give Liron a call.

I contacted BK Elecrtic's Alexis for her help, in hopes to schedule an electrical home inspection the next day. And she delivered! She was even able to provide a HVAC contractor who came out at the same time. The electrician, Liron, arrived right on time and was very helpful, knowledgable, professional and informative during my client's home inspection (I am a Realtor and my client is purchasing the home). They were able to turnaround a report with their findings and even provide photos the following day. They Rock!!

BK Electric are great. Alexis handles the scheduling and she is a very personable and professional. Project manager Liron came out and gave me a detailed estimate on 14 recessed lights, a bath ceiling fan and 3 switched wall outlets. He came back a week later with a small crew that put it all in. Liron was a pleasure to work with; he listened to my ideas but also was informative and offered a few ideas of his own. He was also helpful with some creative lighting ideas (I think he might also be a lighting designer). I'm very happy with the work. They even let me switch out the stock bulbs for my own preference after-the-fact. I would recommend them to a friend.
Liron & his team did the electric in my whole house: put LED recess lights (saves a lot of $$ on my electric bill), put child safe outlets (the best), dimmers in selected rooms, lights outside the house... They were very pleasant, reliable, professional & fast. I would recommend them to my family & friends (some also used them & were very happy), and to anyone who is looking for honest hard working guys that will do an amazing job.

I got B&K Electric's contact information off of Angie's List where they were highly recommended. My first contact with B&K electric was with their office receptionist. She was friendly, helpful, and honest with me about what the crew could offer and what could be expected at our appointment in regards to getting an estimate and having work start immediately. Gustavo and his crew showed up on time and then spent over an hour assessing a very complicated situation with an old and outdated wiring system. He helped us figure out several different options according to our budget and wrote up an estimate with all of the options and recommended phases on the spot. Even though we couldn't do all of the work on the first visit, he was able to get us up and running to make an old space into a livable space in a single day. He set it up so that in the future when we decide to do Phase 2 it will be easy to add on and no time, effort, or money will have been wasted by waiting. He was friendly, professional, and his crew left no mess. We will be calling him again.
I am writing to attest to the skill and quality of the work of BK Electric Services - and also to add my comments to a review of BK Electric written earlier this year, regarding a holiday tree-lighting project that I was involved with. What I want primarily to emphasize is that BK did a wonderful, professional and artistic job in lighting this 35 foot tree. The work was admired and appreciated by the members of the supporting organization and by the public who viewed this tree. I have no doubts about the skill and qualifications of the electricians at BK Electric. Unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding by all involved, and a tragic holiday-season loss that affected the company's owner, we had a difficult time coordinating the removal of the lights after the holidays, a misunderstanding that led to the previous review. The question has been fully and amicably resolved, and owner Liron Nave and I have enjoyed a productive and highly professional conversation. The excellence of BK's work should be absolutely clear. I have confidence in their work and do not hesitate to recommend them for domestic and commercial electrical work.

My company has had reason to use 'BK Electric Services' twice and both times they have solved our electrical issues in a timely matter. I can't recommend them enough.
I cannot say enough positive things about B.K. Electric. I called on a Sunday and spoke to Alexis after having been without power for 48 hours (LADWP thought it was their issue so I waited, but turns out it was not). She was so kind and said she could have someone out to my house within 1-2 hours. On a Sunday. After a major storm that left thousands without power. I figured it was too good to be true, but lo and behold Liron showed up to my house and diagnosed the problem immediately. He was able to replace my main breaker which was badly corroded from years of water damage (a whole other issue I'm working out with my HOA). Because he did not have with him that day the exact breaker he wanted me to have permanently, he gave me a temporary replacement so I could have power that day but then came back out the next day (which was a holiday!) and replaced it with a permanent breaker. My neighbor even learned that her breaker was also corroded from water damage so had him replace hers as well and he was happy to do so. I was blown away by how incredibly efficient, knowledgeable and professional he was, and for such a fair and reasonable price (especially considering he came out on a Sunday and a holiday!) I cannot thank Alexis and Liron enough. Total lifesavers!! I was worried about finding a good expert electrician who would not vastly overcharge me or tell me I needed work that I did not, but I can 100% vouch for B.K. Electric and fully intend to use them for any electrical needs I have going forward.
We were in an accelerated escrow on a house that was in need of multiple repairs. Still scrambling to get inspections and estimates for the extensive repairs that were needed, we called BK Electric and explained the situation to Alexis - who was amazingly helpful and organized. She understood immediately the situation we were in: We needed a thorough inspection of the entire property, an estimate on the cost of the repairs that would be needed, and an itemized invoice that detailed the repairs needed item by item - and we needed it ASAP! Alexis jumped into action, sent out an inspector to the house, and personally made sure that he wrote up a detailed itemized invoice for us the same day (which she email to us after-hours!) With our estimates in hand, we were able to negotiate a fair credit with the Sellers and successfully closed Escrow a few days later. We were so grateful for Alexis' help -and the professionalism of the company in general. Thank you BK! We look forward to working with you in the future.
I have used BK electric for two houses I have lived in, the first was a simple job adding a few plugs to parts of the house that didn't have. The next property included a panel relocation and upgrade. Liron quoted the lowest price, and was able to get the inspections all done in a week. The building inspector commented on how well the wiring in the panel was done, and haven't had any problems. I would definitely use them again.
