Reviews
John was very knowledgeable and very quick response. Explain the problem very well and did a great job. I had used him twice so far and will definitely call him next time if I have electrical issues.
Crown Electric (John) did electrical work in my home recently which was all done nicely. He was on time and very friendly.
Before arriving he provided a verbal quote of $300 over the phone which I agreed to for the installation of two wall sconces by running wire from an existing light fixture. The work was done the next day and the sconces look nice.
I then asked/reminded that I wanted a dimmer on wall switch and at the same time asked about installing an outlet for a toilet bidet. No problem for him to do but I did not ask for a price to do so (big lesson once contractors are in your home). I mentioned a nice tidy way to run wire to the outlet as mentioned by another electrician but he had another idea, which he did without my permission and left me with a huge hole running across a wall I had just spent hundreds of dollars to repair, 8 feet by 5 inches (see photo).
Additional cost of adding a dimmer to an already installed outlet $150.
Additional cost of installing an outlet by toilet and running wire $350 (knocked off $100).
Please receive quotes upfront for everything you need done and ensure your marble floors, toilet, vanity and anything else new or old are covered before they arrive or you most likely will have a big mess to clean up.
Worst part: Additional cost of $500 I will pay someone tomorrow to patch and drywall the ridiculously big hole he left for me to deal with and before the contractor can continue the work.
I've used John at Crown for over 8 years now and absolutely admire his attention to detail and the organized clean manner In which he delivers the project .
Excellent service, great personality and always there when you need him . Highly recommended...
John was responsive and reliable. He was thorough with addressing a fried outlet and patient with my 86-year old mother, who had MANY questions for him. We both appreciated his service and attentiveness to detail. I would recommend John and Crown Electric, without hesitation. Thank you for your service and for keeping us safe, John!
Excellent work along with prompt service and fair pricing. We were in a pinch--and John/Crown (and sure, Yelp) pulled through for us. I'll be happy to tell family and friends about this business going forward.

So great working with John. He's such a skilled professional and so smart about brainstorming the best solutions for various projects. He installed four security cameras for us and also a lot of landscape lighting. Such a pleasure to work with a true professional!!!
I had overhead lighting installed and I couldn't be happier. John was very prompt, professional and very friendly. His pricing was fair and his work was quality. I highly recommend calling John for any of your electrical needs!

John is a trustworthy and honest professional. He is responsive, friendly and very careful in doing his work, all the while being very patient in clearly explaining his reasoning for his recommendations. Pricing was very competitive compared to other professionals I called for quotes. Will be calling him from now on for all of my electrical work!!! Thank you, John!!
John did a fantastic job of installing a ceiling fan and relocating a light fixture. Very friendly and clearly explained everything. His quote was also very reasonable. We will be calling him again for our electrical needs!
If I could give this business 10 stars I would!
The owner John installed recessed lighting that can be dimmed in our living room today.
I called him yesterday, arranged the date and time, and he was here exactly on time with all of the necessary equipment.
He has such a fun personality. It's been my experience that people who do work around your house, while professional, are just that, professional. John was both professional and just so happy and fun!!!
Plus, side note, he's full of information regarding types of lighting you should buy,etc.
I'm putting his company on my list under all things electric. Or as peeps used to say, speed dial. You go Crown Electric!
John at Crown Electric recently installed five ceiling fans and two designer pendant lights for us. While most of these had existing junction boxes and were straightforward, two required retrofitting new fixtures into the house. I was very impressed that John was able to add these without any additional holes in the wall that required additional patching, even though neither location had full attic access. All seven installations were done very well and correctly in the first attempt.
In addition to the quality work, we found John responsive and easy to communicate with. We mostly used texting which made things really easy and convenient. John was also the only electrician who was able to provide us a quote and schedule the install on his first visit.
I would work with Crown Electric again and recommend them without hesitation.
I don't need to call around for quotes anymore- when I have an electrical issue, I just reach out to John. I've used the services of Crown Electric for about 5 years now, and I can always rely on Crown to get the job done with quick turnaround and within budget.
One of the things I appreciate most is John's creative problem-solving. I described a problem I had with circuit load and imagined he would have to create a new circuit. Once he heard my concerns, he was able to find an easier, cheaper solution that he completed that day. It's been working great ever since. I feel like many companies would be happy to bill you more for work you might not need, but John is always honest and finds solutions that fit your needs and budget.
I've also been happy with John's prompt service. Several times over the years, I've scheduled him to inspect various issues, and he has been able to perform the work right then and there, which saved me the trouble of scheduling another day.
Creative problem-solving, prompt service, easy communication and competitive pricing- what more do you look for? Crown Electric makes it easy. Next time I need help, I don't even hesitate- I just reach out to John.
John is amazing! I spent 3 hours trying to install a pendant light, blew out the switch, shocked myself twice, then gave up and went to bed.
I called him the next day, and he came by 4 hours later and fixed everything it all within an hour!
Great service, great attitude, great work!

John@Crown Electric has done an outstanding job on all the installs I have given him over the years. He has installed 3 light fixtures, mounted my TV in the kitchen, canister lighting, setup my entertainment system, outside security lighting and best of all, the Surveillance Camera System with 8 cameras which I'm able to view the on my smart phone through a free app without any monthly fees.
John is punctual and performs professional clean work. I highly recommend Crown Electric and I always recommend them to all family & friends!

Crown Electric did a great job installing a new electric outlet. It was done in a quick and professional manner. Why not 5 stars? Well its kinda of a nitpick that they don't fix holes made during the job. They told me this but other competitors charge more for the convenience.
Used John twice and perfect.
He did something for me that two other electricians wanted 3x the price for and wanted to make it complicated. John goes for simple, but safe. He's a clean worker too.

We live in a home that was built in the 1930's. Saturday morning a couple months ago one of the fuses blew, we were not able to get it back on. In a panic I checked out Yelp came across Crown. Spoke with John he gave me two arrival times to chose from for same day service. He arrived on time. He was professional, courteous, and honest. He replaced and upgraded a fuse at a low rate. We will be calling again

So 11 months later he sends me a message asking how he can make this up to me (i.e., get me to change my review). What on earth does he expect to do 11 months after the fact? I've already hired someone to take care of the issue (and quite well) almost a year ago. There is nothing you can do for me to get me to LIE for you and change my review. This man has no integrity, no scruples, and bad character.
John was prompt, professional, and extremely knowledgeable, which is exceedingly difficult to find these days. Could not possibly recommend him more. No question, 5 stars. Fair prices and great communication. Thanks again, John!
I relocated my guitars tore in Pasadena in June and needed to get some electrical work done quick, nicely (showroom) and within a budget. I had a hard time to meet all my expectations and then John arrived:
- he was on time for the first appointment (in L.A. and with a tight schedule, is really good);
- he worked out a solution within my budget and had very good inputs to meet my needs (professional showroom and back store-room);
- he managed to have the work done at a very short notice and within a short time frame.
I'm very happy with the work performed and after 3 months have nothing to complain about. John tried to work with the existing electrical system in the back, including existing neon , and when these started to act funky, he offered to come back and work on them as a warranty, at no charge!
I will recommend him to my friends and fellow local businesses anytime! And will certainly work with him for some electrical work in my house.
THE BEST ELECTRICIAN IN PASADENA PERIOD!! Super professional and amazing work!! Installed all the lights in my condo including a pendent and even switched an electrical outlet for me to give the room a better look. Trust me - don't call anyone else! If I need anything done in the future - I will be calling them again! Outstanding customer service, and an outstanding quality job!
A++++++
John is the greatest... Helped me with the monumental task of dismounting an 80 tv, then remounting it at my new place. And he's a wonderful person to boot!

So nice to know that companies take the time to respond to feedback. John contacted me as soon as he'd read my review and asked to make things right. He came over within days and fixed the problem at no additional charge. Thank you, John. He took the time to explain how the fixture works and gave us suggestions on possible upgrades. Will certainly work with him again.

Good electrician! Comes out and does what needs to be done. Not outstanding but it was good. We needed a repair done quickly to get lights working again. Got the repair done quickly.

More than happy with the service. Honest, speedy and to the point. We needed to change an outlet so it works with the new equipment that we got and the job was done very proper. Very happy with results. Call these guys and you will be very happy. Five star rating......well deserved!!!
John saved me from burning my house down. I am forever in debt! Thank you!
We bought a new house and needed the outside lighting checked/replaced as well as installation of garage light and security motion lights. John and James were so professional and accommodating. They worked with my schedule to come give an estimate and then the work. They work weekends which is nice and everything was done so fast! They had great suggestions when I wasn't sure what I wanted and found cost-effective solutions. Then, it happened to rain really hard with strong winds and John came back to reset everything free of charge! I would definitely recommend them for any electrical needs!

Fast. Responsive. Got it done. Fixed power glitch in my garage. Now I don't have to worry about it. They are bookmarked in case I have electrical problems in the future.

John just finished some outdoor electrical work, new wiring to the detached garage (and adding outlets, light socket and switch), and adding an outlet/switch for our outdoor patio lighting. He did an extremely professional job, was communicative through the process, was great with our dog and didn't get annoyed at a teething toddler screaming half of the time. He offered options for various components and even offered to help install a USB outlet in the kitchen that I'd managed to mess up. While his final quote came in higher than our initial scoping visit, it was still a reasonable price for the amount of work. I'll gladly use John again.
My elderly mother needed rewiring suspended between her house and garage as well as bringing up the garage internal wiring to code (fixing my late father's DIY efforts). I live in Northern California and was able to remotely arrange for John to provide an estimate. We communicated by texting and he was very responsive and enthusiastic (when was the last time a contractor was enthusiastic?!). He worked directly with my mother after that and she was happy with his price, quality of work and professionalism.

Turned out I had a mislabeled circuit breaker in our new place. He solved it over the phone. And since it was so simple, he did it for free! If you want someone who's honest and knows what he's doing, go no further!
First of all, thanks to yelp reviewers for recommending John at Crown Electric. It's always strange to work with someone for the first time. Let me say that if I need anymore electric work, I'm calling John. I had a light fixture issue and also wanted to move some fixtures around and install a new one. I am very happy with the results and John was very helpful explaining what would work best and why. I am happy to add another five stars for Crown Electric.
John was very professional and meticulous when he was working on the lighting to my mom's kitchen and re-wiring the circuit breaker panel. He would always pick up the phone whenever my mom calls him for random questions. I couldn't be happier with his work and attention to detail. My mom is happy with her new kitchen and I'm stress-free. Thanks John.
