Frank Electric

This is a follow-up review for Frank Electric.  Frank never ceases to amaze me with the level of service and support he provides to his customers.  Most recently, I experienced a problem with one of my breaker panels and one of the associated circuits which provides power to my living room area.  In essence we lost power to all fixtures, outlets and switches in that room.  I gave Frank a call and he responded right away.  I told him what I thought the issue was and he gave me some troubleshooting guidance over the phone, and advised me that he was working on a major rewiring job through the weekend, and that if there was break in the action he would stop by my home to address the problem.  I followed his troubleshooting guidance and was unable to resolve the problem myself.  I called Frank the next day to update him and he said he would make time to address my problem.  Twenty-Five minutes later he arrived at my home and greeted me with a big smile, checked the situation out, and less than 10 minutes later he found and resolved the problem, which turned out to be a faulty cord for a lamp that was short circuiting the outlet it was plugged into and tripping the associated breaker switch.  The reason I am writing this review is to demonstrate that Frank goes above and beyond all expectations for his customers.  To put it very simply I can't recall ever having a better customer service experience!  The Yelp rating system of 5 Stars does not even begin to recognize people of Frank's caliber!  I personally would give them at least 6 Stars and better yet, 10 out of 10 if it were possible!  My wife and I would like to personally thank Frank for simply being the Best!  If there is a Guardian Angel that watches over Electricians and their Customers, his name must be Frank!  If I have any future needs for electrical work, I will hire Frank and the Frank Electric Crew without hesitation.  In my opinion, if you are looking for an electrical contractor, first do your own research, but I highly recommend that you consider putting Frank Electric at the top of your list.
 

All The Best,

In contractors I'm looking for someone who I can hand the work off to when I'm not even home and they can deliver excellent service. Frank and his team definitely are at this level. We hired them to install an outlet in the bathroom as well as install an outlet where the old stove was somehow plugged-in behind the drywall (1981 construction).

In both cases they were quick and cleaned up any mess or drywall dust. I was not explicitly told to expect to repair a drywall cut, but it was clearly something I was working on in the bathroom (with drywall mud and drywall pieces I had out). Informing less-handy folk about this ahead of time would be appreciated.

Either way, any time we need electrical work, I'm calling Frank Electric.

Frank was referred to us by our previous electrician. We wanted to swap out our gas oven and dryer for electric ones. Frank came over and did an initial site survey and let us know what needed to be done and how much it would cost. His crew showed up on time and everything went exactly as planned. They were courteous and efficient. If you're looking for an electrician call Frank Electric!

Best all round electrician in San Diego. Frank Electric recently rewired our entire 1920 Craftsman ( original wires!) upgraded our panel to be solar ready and installed new outlets throughout. Responsive, attentive to detail, professional, thoughtful and competitively priced. If you know anyone interested in getting into this line of work, you couldn't ask for a better company to learn from.

Frank is Great... Through the whole process from talking it out, design, understanding, seeing the big picture... and great execution.  So glad we found him.... We will use again.

After speaking to over 8 electricians (seriously), I decided to go with Frank. His easy communication style and very reasonable costs sealed the deal. We were able to agree on a date and time easily and he met us at our condo with no hiccups. Yes, someone that actually comes on time (he even came early) does exist, though rare, and Frank is his name. He changed out our bathroom fan, installed a chandelier, and changed out the switch in a very timely manner. He had extra materials (switches) which was nice since we didn't have anything. He was incredibly courteous and his attention to detail surpassed mine (rare).

Overall, it was an extremely pleasant experience. I can't recommend him enough. He is our go to electrician from now on.

Recently, my company had the lighting in several displays begin to strobe and/or go out right before a big event. Frank was able to stop by on short notice and quickly get them fixed. He has been our electrician for several years now and always does great work. I would definitely recommend him for any electrical work that you need done.

we called Frank on the recommendation of a plumber for our water heater which was suddenly not working post-storm, once we realized it was an electric issue. Despite being out of town he was responsive and managed to get someone out same day as promised. Pedro was patient, thoughtful and solved the issue. Frank Electric saved the day!

If you're looking for an electrician, LOOK NO FURTHER - Frank Electric is the best. The downstairs of our condo was not well-lit/very dark. We're in the process of a kitchen remodel so we figured now was the best time to install recessed lighting as well as swap out some old light fixtures (pendant lighting & a fixture over the kitchen table). Frank is a true professional. He was on time, friendly, personable & very knowledgeable. We had NO overhead lighting in our living room, so Frank had to route/install (whatever the proper lingo is lol) all of the wiring in the ceiling. We thought this would mean huge cuts out of our dry wall but he was able to do it with minimal cutting. He completely transformed our dark, dreary condo & made it light and bright! Without a doubt, we will be using Frank Electric again.

He is so incredibly professional. He was very gracious to come personally to give a quote. I would definitely recommend his business for anyone who needs a really good electrician.

Frank is one of those old souls from days gone by when contractors saw the quality of their work as their calling card. He genuinely takes pride in his craft as an electrician and it shows. We were fortunate to have Frank on our side after we unexpectedly learned our home (built originally in the 1920s and added to in the 1950s) needed to be rewired. From start to finish Frank was communicative, easy to work with and he kept us in the loop as things progressed.  He also managed our expectations and made what could've been a stressful process anything but stressful. While I wish we could keep him a secret, we cannot recommending him highly enough. And, his pricing is competitive. Frank is not the least expensive electrician in town, however, do you really want the cheapest person doing your electrical work?.... Give Frank an opportunity as we did, you won't be disappointed. Included are a few before pictures of the electrical nightmare Frank remedied for us.

Frank diagnosed the electrical problems in our 1927 (partially remodeled) Kensington house quickly and accurately. He followed up on our phone calls and texts in a timely manner and charged a reasonable price.

Frank has helped me with my home, my office, and has even assisted my clients. He's kind, professional, does great work, and very fair on pricing. I trust him enough to provide access with out me even there, and he continues to perform at the highest level. I have worked with many electricians in the past, but Frank's the best.

I can't say enough great things about Frank Electric.  Frank is responsive, professional, and an excellent electrician. I needed a ceiling fixture installed, and it was done in a matter of 20 minutes. The light looks amazing, and, he was able to put it on a dimmer. I have already recommended him to all of my family members, and have his number saved because I will be using him for all of my future electric work.  Thank you, thank you, FRANK!

We are repeat customers of Frank's and could not pile in the praise enough.  He made time for a rather small job for us (hallway light install), but we had a time crunch because of getting that part of the house painted.  It was a last minute let's-do-this idea, so we immediately emailed Frank on a weekend and asked to schedule within the next two weeks.  He responded well within 12 hours, said he was booked, but still listened to the details of what we needed done and why we had the time crunch.  I hate making last minute or time-restrained requests, and offered to accept any recommendations for other electricians if he schedule didn't allow, but that he was our first choice.  The next day he came back and said he could do it on Monday.  And it is perfect.  The response, the customer service, the follow up and his skills and knowledge that he gives his customers is amazing.  Of course that means he will always be very busy, so, unlike me, please be sure to schedule well in advance.  You will not be disappointed!!

Sick of searching for a electrician? Look no further than Frank. Friendlier, better priced, and more professional than the other estimates I had. Took care of all the legwork logistically with our 200A service upgrade, Tesla charger installation, and adding an outdoor outlet... and you can believe SDG&E doesn't make it easy. Even took care of a ceiling fan I had incorrectly wired earlier . Estimate was accurate to the dollar, even with the extra time and effort he put into my job. If you need an electrician call Frank! I'll rest my entire Yelp reputation on it.

Showed up on time, did great work and cleaned up after himself. The work was neat and looked professional. He was very helpful and took the time to explain things or offer suggestions.  After having 3 sub par electricians I am super happy to have found Frank. He definitely has a new repeat customer.

This is the electrician you have been looking for! Professional, personable, and a keen eye for detail. Hired Frank to install a new sub panel, edit & replace old wires, install new outlets as well as outdoor light fixtures. I'm also dry walling my garage so he moved all wires so it can be drywalled over. I'm very happy with his work. Electrical work is one of those areas I need a peace of mind with considering it's a potential fire hazard. I have absolute faith in Frank's skill and dedication to the craft. You will be in good hands!

Great job by Frank Electric.  My outoor LED light broke away from my building and was hanging by a wire.  Contacted Frank on a Sunday night and he was at my house on Tuesday as agreed, and was able to show up early!  My light is now fixed, better than new.  Will be using Frank again for other electrical needs.

Frank is an excellent communicator, does great work, shows up when he says he will, and is a really decent fellow.

We're hired him twice: first to run some new circuits and swap out some outlets.  Second to install a brand new panel with 200A service.

Frank did a great job for us both times.  With the panel, he took care of all the communication with the city, and was here for the inspection.  Total turn-key service.

I recommend Frank 100%.

Very satisfied with Frank's work. Fast response to my original call and was able to come by on the same day and do the repairs. Disaster averted and now I can sleep knowing my house won't burn down around me. Will definitely be recommending him to friends and family. Clean, neat, personable and professional. Left us with some tips to help us in the future and very reasonable pricing.

Frank has been our go-to electrician for the past six years, most recently completing an entire rewire and panel upgrade of our historic home.  We are constantly impressed with his professional approach to everything he does.  He is fair, reasonably priced, and responds promptly to even the smallest of requests.  Further, it seems the house is cleaner AFTER he leaves- not sure how he does it.  In the past few months, Frank has returned to assist in some smaller electrical jobs, and we were pleased to see his caution and safety measures taken during these COVID times.  Beyond his excellent work, Frank is a genuinely nice person- our whole family loves him, including our two young kids and new dog.  He has been recommended to and gone on to work with multiple family members and friends, all of whom have raved about his attention to detail and professionalism.  Thank you, Frank!

It's such a HUGE relief to find a go-to electrician who is so personable, honest, reasonable, and will go the extra mile for you. I will never call another electrician again. Frank upgraded our panel, ran electrical for A/C and a jacuzzi, and installed ceiling fans in rooms that did not have easy attic access. He works efficiently, with a smile, and at a price that didn't make me feel like I had been run over! He has since done work on our rental and for several of my clients, all with equal rave reviews. Call Frank...you won't be disappointed!

I was very impressed by the level of professionalism, service and quality of work done by Frank Electric.
Frank showed up on time, quickly assessed our issue and solved it in a very short time at a reasonable price.
Happy to recommend Frank Electric to all my friends looking for reliable service.

Frank was prompt in  responding to our initial inquiry to install motion sensor lights on both   sides of our house and to getting an outdoor socket to work.  He quoted us a very fair cost--even with having to punch a hole through a upstairs bedroom to the outside wall! He was punctual, polite, and professional. All work was neat and clean and efficiently done.
We will definitely be calling on Frank again for future work.

Frank is the greatest! Competent, punctual, friendly and a pleasure to work with. He solved a variety of electrical issues at our house-two outdoor lights that had quit on us, moved our thermostat & added a new outdoor outlet. He happily went to great lengths to figure out an electrical problem caused by a previous contractor...all with a smile on his face! We would highly recommend him to anyone (and we do!) Thanks so much, Frank!

Frank came out to evaluate a panel upgrade. He was super friendly and informative. Answered my detailed question, and kept in close communication afterward on scope and pricing. I didn't end up moving forward with the work, but really liked his attitude and honesty. I will certainly call him back when I have future needs.

Frank is the very best. Extremely professional, dependable and does great work. He has done a wide variety of projects for me and my family over the years, and never does anything short of perfect. I am a real estate agent and I am also very comfortable recommending him to clients, which isn't something I take lightly. I could not recommend him more!

Frank put a 20 amp circuit for my mini split and did a great job. He was fast and found the best way to make it as attractive as possible. His quote was fair and he honors his work.

I hired Frank Electric to fix a bad GFCI outlet in my bathroom.  I also wanted him to upgrade two lights to flush-mounted LED lighting in my dining and living room.  He added two dimmer switches too.  He was able to do the job promptly and got lights to match the ones already in the kitchen.  I would hire him again for all my electrical needs in future.  He was also mindful of Covid precautions and wore a mask.  Sla'inte to Frank!

I had a tenant call with an urgent power outage, SDGE had just been out there and reported needed a new breaker box. I couldn't have my tenant without power during this quarantine Covid19 pandemic so I needed assistance quick. I called Frank and he was able to return my call, get there and repair the breaker unit all in record breaking time. Not just that, he was fair - polite and extremely helpful. I was extremely impressed and satisfied and going forward will use Frank for my personal and business needs. THANK YOU

Frank was awesome! He was punctual, professional and did a great job. We had a tricky shortage at our very old home and he was able to diagnose and repair the problem with no hiccups or surprises on cost etc. I would recommend him and use his services again.

We inquired Frank for assistance based on excellent prior reviews to install a 240v outlet and a fan/light combo vent for our bathroom. Frank was professional and courteous during the initial estimate and remained so through the rest of the process after accepting his service. He was prompt with negotiated times and always responsive. The installation of the 240v proved elaborate, necessitating fishing wiring through 4 floors of our townhome, but he did an excellent job. He limited the amount of texture and painting that would be required for us to complete after the work was done, which was sincerely appreciated. The installation of the bathroom vent also went smoothly, and we no longer have to rely on a constant open window to achieve the same effect. We are grateful for Frank's consideration to keep our costs down where possible. Frank is a genuine person and possesses a notable integrity that is seemingly rare these days. Without hesitation, we would consider contacting Frank for any future projects.

I just had a couple of electrical issues fixed today and Frank was great. Very punctual, very affordable, and friendly. Highly recommended.

I would like to recommend Frank Electric [email protected] for your electrician needs.  I contacted Frank and within a week he completed by job.  I phoned him to ask if he could stop by to give an estimate while I was meeting the painter.  He re-routed and came out to meet me.  While he was there he quickly diagnosed the issue, showed me pricing for replacement parts and committed to returning later in the day to install the replacement LED light.  I will definitely contact Frank for future electrician needs.

Frank is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with. He provided competitive pricing and excellent service for variety of electrical jobs in our house, including rewiring a bathroom, LED lighting installation throughout and relocation of multiple switches with dimmer upgrades. He kept us updated through every step of the process and followed up to ensure we were happy with the service. We would highly recommend Frank for any electrical needs you may have.

Frank totally transformed our living room and kitchen and bathroom lighting. He is very detailed and organized in his work and guided us through the process every step of the way. We are so happy with our new lighting and amazed at how it transformed the ambiance of our space. If you are looking for a trustworthy, efficient and communicative electrician- Frank is your man!!

Frank is an excellent electrician and fair businessman.  I contacted him the day before and he came out fixed multiple issues in my house. He was efficient and punctual. I highly recommend.

Frank just finished the rewiring of our whole garage, and fixed some other outlets around the house. He was very competent, punctual, communicated well and did great work for a really fair price. Working with him was easy and we highly recommend him for any project you may have!

Frank is amazing! Working with Frank was extremely comfortable and informative...I learned a good deal about how to prevent overloading circuits using portable AC units (my biggest concern was my bedroom window outlet not working). Before Frank arrived, I had 9 of my 19 outlets functioning or not quite 50 percent. By the time he left, they were good to go!!!
I so appreciated his level of professionalism with making sure the numerous outlets that needed replacement were taken care of. He did an exceptional job teaching me about single versus shared circuits and was extremely reassuring with reviewing details. We really take our electricity for granted until we don't have it, so seeing that green good to go light on my bedroom window AC plug at the very end was definitely the highlight of my day. Great thing to have working in San Diego on those very warm summer days and nights! So grateful and happy seeing the beautiful lighting that wasn't there before. Thanks again, Frank!!!

Frank is a gem. I relied on other reviews when I called him and it payed off. He returned my call promptly and showed up at the agreed upon time - unusual in itself in a time when getting anyone to respond is difficult. We discussed the work needed to be done and he proceeded to accomplish it all in a timely manner. I highly recommend Frank!

If you want someone to get the job done right AND on time, Frank is your guy!  Frank helped with a huge renovation project we had, from planning to installation of a new meter.  He makes himself available and is up front when it comes to timing and prices.  He really takes pride in his work and will go the extra mile to make sure the job gets done.  We would highly recommend Frank Electric!

Highly recommend Frank for all your electrical needs! I was restoring an old home that required extensive electrical upgrades including a panel upgrade. Frank was amazing to work with on this project and I completely trust his work. He is very fair, responsive and professional. I hope to work with Frank again on my next project.

Frank provided outstanding service. He was timely, incredibly courteous, and very helpful. He really knows what he's doing and I will definitely call him again for my next electrical need. Thank you, Frank!

Fantastic experience working with Frank.  He was personable, proficient and very reasonably priced.  He replaced a canister light in our living room with a ceiling fan.  I would highly reccomend Frank for any electrical job in your home.

Frank is awesome. He installed 6 new recessed lights and replaced 4 old ones for me. Fair pricing. Great communication. Quick to get the job done and didn't leave a spec of dust behind. Not to mention he's a very friendly guy - you'd probably want to buy him a beer once the job is done!

I highly recommend Frank for your electrical needs. We had him come in and install 220V outlets in our laundry room. I actually got 3 different quotes, but Frank was hands down the most knowledgeable of all of them. What impressed me initially was the time he took to research the problem (we had enough room in the panel but the breakers were strangely configured), and to come up with creative solutions. None of the other electricians noticed the same details he did, or put the time into really thinking about the best solution to the problem. The price was more than fair as well, even as we encountered an unforeseen glitch. His work was very well executed and everything looks great, which is very important to me, even for an electrical panel. He even went to extra lengths to check that the amperage was okay for items previously installed by another electrician. The worksite was left neater than when he arrived (thanks for that Frank!). Everything in the panel labeled in fine detailed. A perfect job, and Frank is also extremely personable and easy to work with. We will definitely use him for all of our future electrical jobs.
