Edgar and crew were very professional and efficient installing a new fan and duct in my bathroom. Edgar really took the time to understand what I wanted and what my options were. They were late and made my day more stressful, else 5 stars!

I had a disappointing experience with E M Electric.

The good:

-quick response time
-fixed the problem

The disappointing:

I received the bill and found that I had been charged an additional $500 for troubleshooting. I had never been quoted this rate or given any indication I'd be charged a troubleshooting fee until I received the bill.

EM spent about four hours at our house and replaced 7 outlets for $345 plus a service fee of $59. That all felt very fair. The job was annoying and took some research to find out why the outlet were acting weird. I was happy to pay extra for the trouble -- but $500 without getting my approval is excessive. I complained and they lowered my bill by $200 (which I appreciated), but I hate having to be put in that position.

I do feel like they're good electricians, but make sure you get everything quoted ahead of time.

Edgar and his team provided excellent service for an EV Car outlet installation and breaker replacement. He was extremely responsive and helpful in understanding the job and explaining what is required. His quote was fair based on others I received. I will definitely use his services in the future. Thanks Edgar!

Tony (the owner) and Andy (son) did an awesome job changing my smoke detector today.  It's tricky as the detector is located on a 22 foot ceiling.  They are efficient and competent in getting the job done.  They also kept good communication throughout the process.  I will definitely hire them again for future electrical needs.

We hired E M Electric to install three hardwired smoke/CO detectors. Tony & co. did a great job & I would not hesitate to use them again.

Seriously the best and coolest electrician I've come across in Los Angeles.

If you're like me, you pride yourself in being a handy person who likes the challenges that get hands dirty.  

So when I attempted to change out my ceiling fan's receiver and wall control yet failed miserably.. It was admittedly a blow to the ego.  Thankfully I found Tony @ EM Electric.

Tony has the best communication I've ever experienced before even locking in a time to come over.  His pre-bid was more than reasonable.. Near generous to be honest.  When he arrived... On time of course... He couldn't have been more on it and personable.  It was nice actually having him in the home... How nice?  I made fresh coffee and protein shakes for us... It was 9am after all and let's be honest, changing a ceiling fan is a bitch.

So thank you Tony!  And for whoever is reading this... You're welcome.

We needed someone to be able to come out same day to repair a breaker that had gone out and compromised most of the electricity in our house. Tony came, tweaked the old breaker so it once again worked and told us that he'd have to charge additional to replace the breaker which wasn't a good idea since the panels in our 100 year old house needed consolidation and replacing the old breaker wouldn't really fix the prevailing issue. We appreciated his honorable response and his promptness in addressing the issue. Highly recommend this company!

whoa.

money money money!!

trust me...read my reviews. admittedly, i'm pretty anal.

they literally are the old school ghostbusters.

they came. they saw, they kicked some a$$.

i had them install a smart doorbell.

they made it look so good.

in my neighborhood, a lot of people have them and the installation was so much more top notch and better.

i will never have anyone else ever coming over for future electrical work.

they guys showed up and got the job done professionally.

After stupidly hiring a handyman from one of those task apps to install a ceiling fan and his work almost electrocuted me I called Edgar and he  and Tony came over within 15 minutes and completely saved the day. He reinstalled the fan and made sure it will never set my house on fire. You want someone like him to do your electrical work! I wholeheartedly recommend these guys!

Edgar was very courteous and helpful from the moment we spoke on the phone. He went above and beyond in helping us with our electrical needs and even gave recommendations for the next time we purchased lighting and gave us some safety tips. We'll definitely be contracting him again the future! Thanks Edgar!

Tony did such a great job!!  I had him install 4 outdoor electrical plugs and an outdoor light.  He was very knowledgable about putting it on it's own circuit so it didn't mess up any other electrical items.  His craftsmanship was excellent and was very professional.  He's my new electrical guy!

Tony was amazing. He arrived when he said he would and installed smoke detectors, a new light fixture, and an outside outlet. He also corrected a 3 way switch that hadn't been installed correctly by someone else. He clearly explained what was needed, answered all my questions and did quality, thorough work. I will call him from now on for all electrical issues. I couldn't be happier with his work.

Called EM Electric for a few small electrical problems at house. Edgar responded immediately, they arrived within 2 hours. Tony and Tony turned out to be friendly, knowledgeable and amazingly efficient. They were in and out in less than 90 minutes and all problems were solved. They had their own truck, with a part they needed. What else do you want from a service like this: Fast, professional, clean, courteous and a fair charge for work accomplished. I'll use them again in a blink.

Edgar and Tony put up three ceiling fans for us in our apartment in which our apartments didn't have brackets in. They installed the brackets for us and were able to do all three ceiling fans in a couple of hours, and they look beautiful. We will be using them again when we need to install remotes!

Tony provided me with a very reasonable quote in comparison to other quotes I received. He is very professional. He was on time, explained everything in detail, hooked up a ceiling fan in my living room and cleaned up. I will def use him for future jobs around the house! I highly recommend him!

My company has been working with Edgar for 4 years now and he has been an amazing contractor. Hard worker, always did a great job, very kind and trustworthy, reliable and provides very reasonable rates. Always ready on the job, and can handle just about anything that we have  thrown at him. Definitely Recommend.

I called EM when I discovered that the circuit breaker that controls my fridge had flipped and would not stay in the on or off position. I had lots of food in the freezer, and of course this happened on a Saturday afternoon. Tony came within 30 minutes, confirmed that the 1972-vintage circuit breaker was bad, and replaced it with one he just happened to have in his truck. What a relief. He suggested I replace the entire electrical panel because it's old and a fire hazard, but he did not try to sell me more services than I needed. Except for the higher weekend rate (damn that thing for failing on a Saturday!), it was a painless experience. I will definitely use EM again.

Finding Tony was like finding a pearl in a sea of oysters.  He is so good at his job, so hard working and the best handyman I've ever had the pleasure of employing,

Tony installed two ceiling fans for me and did so expertly.  I simply cannot recommend him strongly enough.

Edgar is highly reliable and extremely competent. I have used him 4 times now and each Edgar and his colleagues have done a great job at a fair price.  They are quick to respond and will work with your schedule.  They also work with the city to get their work permitted (if needed) for a fee.  Highly recommended!

Edgar and his crew came this week to fix a messed up installation in my apt downtown. They were awesome! They took down the light fixture, sorted the jungle of wires up in the ceiling and then correctly assessed what the problem was. Very thorough and professional and even better, they arrived exactly when they said they would. I have no problem recommending them and will be contacting them again for electrical problems.

I love E M Electric! My grandparents were coming to visit me and my ceiling fan completely stopped working. I needed a tech to service me as soon as possible because our guest room is so hot and wanted them to stay fresh and comfortable! I contacted E M Electric last minute and they serviced me that same night! I talked to Stephanie, she set up my appointment and was so sweet and so professional. Definitely would re hire them!!

I was looking for an electrician to do a lot of electrical work in our house without charging me an arm and a leg. Knowing no one, I decided to go to yelp and look for positive reviews. I called 3 different companies and EM Electric was the first one to call me back. Tony and his assistant (I forgot his name) came on time on our set appointment and I had an impression they are nice, professional and honest guys.  i talked to Tony since he is the one in charge.  There were all sorts of electrical work I needed them to do (install a modern chandelier, replace the other chandelier with an old one, install an LED light fixture in my son's room, and add a remote control to our ceiling fan) and he gave me different options to choose from and the overall cost depending on which route I decide.  We agreed on a great price I can afford.  I didn't have the fixtures yet so I had to buy it from Home Depot.  Tony went with me and his assistant started doing some work.  I was 9 months pregnant with a 3 yr old toddler and Tony made it a breeze for me at Home Depot.  When we went home his assistant was already done with the 2 chandeliers. But I asked them to reposition the modern chandelier. I already knew this but totally forgot to let them know before hand.  They were happy to do it but with an additional price which I understand. It would take more time to do it and they had to use another box so I agreed. The additional fee was reasonable.

Overall, I am satisfied with their work and if I'll ever need another electrical work to be done, I would give them a call again with no hesitation.  

Thanks Tony and assistant for a job well done.

Tony came on a Sunday morning after I called him the previous Saturday afternoon.  He was punctual, professional, and fixed the problem.  Nice guy too!  Will use him again for sure with future electrical issues.

Hired Tony to install two ceiling fans and kitchen lights. From beginning until the end, it was very easy to work with him. He communicated well and answered all of my questions. His price is more than fair,even, probably in the lower side compares to other electricians, but it doesn't mean the work is lacking. I'm very happy with the work he did, and the professionalism. He was very prompt, and also made sure I'm satisfied with the installation. He came back a couple days later to fix issues with the lights, thought found out it was not his faults; but, quite happy he was more than willing to come and make sure I'm happy. For sure I will use him again for my next project and recommend him strongly.

If you need recess lights or any electrical work, Tony is your guy. had a pretty big job for tony, 9 lights ( 11ft ceilings), added new outlets/switches and a whole host of stuff for my 2nd floor. He was perfessional and did a great job.  Hes my goto guy for any job, big or small.  Give Tony a call and you'll know what I mean.

I have only great recommendations to post about  Tony from E M Electric.
He came in on time , equipped with professionalism to installed 9 ceiling fixtures.
Tony was fast, quiet, clean and very reasonable price for the work he has done.
This week I called for the second time to hand a very heavy crystal chandelier and he was careful enough to make sure he installed extra support for the weight in the attic and didn't charge extras for the extra careful work!!!
I absolutely recommend his reliable and professional work.

Tony did a great job installing all new lighting in my loft that has concrete walls and ceilings.

Since I have no drywall, he had to run exposed conduit and clean up some messy conduit that another electrician installed. He ran a lot of clean conduit, which most residential electricians cannot  

He made recommendations as to how and where to install the lighting. He and his helper were professional, friendly, on time and professional. I highly recommend!
