I requested an online estimate from Mario Castillo Electric, and within minutes, I received a comprehensive estimate that was very reasonable compared to other electrical companies. His crew installed a Tesla Charger, several outlets, a new breaker, and resolved miscellaneous grounding issues. They completed the job professionally, they were friendly, and cleaned up after themselves. We couldn't be happier. Now I can charge my Tesla at home!!
Thank you, Mario Castillo Electric and the entire electrical team, for your outstanding work! I will be using Mario Castillo Electric for all my future electrical needs.

These guys are timely, good and competitively priced. They seem like pretty smart guys who can handle everting from power to your TV or EV. I'm happy with them.

i needed an ev charger installed in my garage. i used yelp to get some quotes and mario castillo electric offered the most competitive price and was able to come out the following day. rudy, the technician, was professional and did a great job. highly recommend!
Mario was a very helpful and knowledgeable consultant and his electricians are knowledgeable and good. The electrical panel upgrade to 200 amps was done well and successful.
The reason why I cannot rate 5/5 stars is that they did not pass city inspection / permitting the first time, the front office is not on top of communications (e.g. I had to personally tell their front office that their electricians didn't pass inspection a week after the fact), and they aren't the cheapest electrician out there. For a relatively more expensive electrician, I'd hope for better in order to earn 5/5 stars.

I reached out to Mario Castillo Electric to fix my remote ceiling fan. I'm really impressed by how organized this company is. From the intake specialist to the technician coordinator and Anthony, our technician. Everyone had great communication (including clear emails with estimates/invoices, text updates and technician tracking), they were all professional, efficient, and on time. I would absolutely recommend this company and will be using them for any potential electrical needs! Thanks Anthony & Mario Castillo Electric!

Relocated an outlet we needed moved. VERY professional and communicative service. Gentleman who did the work was courteous and professional. They asked all the right questions before coming out, which is great for all parties involved. I was very impressed with their whole operation: reminders, follow ups, etc. Would not hesitate to use them again.
Great service very professional ,
I had a ceiling fan installed
A light switch repaired and
New electrical outlet installed
They did an amazing job
Great clean up job and the pricing was affordable

This was my first experience with Mario Castillo Electric. Their service was great, I called late last week and they had someone out in 2 business days and the issue was resolved.
The service person was early and professional. He called to provide a status of his ETA and worked diligently to resolve the problem.
I will definitely use them again.
These guys were awesome. I had consulted several other electricians on my project (NEMA 14-50 install) and I was resigned to having to pay a lot of money just to be able to do the job. I found Mario Castillo Electric and requested an online quote. Within 15 minutes I received a comprehensive all-in quote that was much less than other quotes and way less intrusive. I was skeptical at first and thanks to Mario Rodriguez, he was able to put me at ease. He even had a master technician review the photos that I sent to assure me. I proceeded with the project and I am extremely satisfied with Anthony's work. The job was professionally done and they cleaned up after themselves. I couldn't be happier. Now I can charge my EVs at a faster rate. Thank you Mario Castillo Electric. I will be using you for all my future electrical needs.
It was a pleasure working with Mario Castillo Electric. I got a service panel upgrade, new subpanel and EVSE hardwire install. I had done a bunch of pre-planning, so had a solid vision for almost every aspect of the project, from electrical loads on the house to preferred wire runs in attic and crawl space (to avoid plumbing and a bunch of exposed conduit), even had a preference on panel models. I wanted a company willing and able to marry the vision with their expertise. Mario's crew knocked it out of the park. From their salesperson to office personnel to the electricians crawling around under the house, they all communicated, respected the vision, showed me where it needed improving and completed the project a day early and looking better than I had envisioned. I didn't see a single shortcut they took, in fact a couple times, they went out of their way to better conceal wires when it would have been easier and quicker not to. I think quality workmanship is cosmetically pleasing and this crew really impressed me with both.
I received a quote from Mr. Castillo back in 2019 for a new electrical panel. I was unable to do the work at that time. Fast forward 2023, I got the same work done, by a licensed electrician for less than 1/2 of what Mr. Castillo would have charged. Lesson learned, get at least three quotes. The other electrician also found on Yelp. Case and point, I do not doubt that Castillo is a good electrician, but definitely OVERPRICED! I also don't doubt that his price would be AT LEAST triple of what he quoted me back in 2019.
Wow! Great communication, great service, great electricians, and reasonable price. It was a hard project installing a chandelier over a stairwell, but the electricians did it all at the quoted price. They even went to the store to buy extra equipment and another ladder to get it done. The BEST!
Marco was great. He was able to be on site the next business day, always respond promptly and his prices were very fair. I will definitely use Marco moving forward for all my electrical needs.
Utilized Mario Castillo Electric to install an EV Charger this week. Mario and his team have been our go to electricians for a number of years and I'm reminded after each project why I go to them each time. They are very good at what they do and Mario's business has always handled themselves in a professional manner. I'm always pleased with their work!

Very pleased with the work that Mario and his team (William & Randy) did with our panel upgrade and kitchen rewire. Had previous work done with this company before and was very pleased - so we didn't hesitate to call again for this new job we needed done. The electricians were punctual, very friendly & informative from start to finish. On time with the work done which was great & cleaned up nicely afterwards. Overall another great experience with Mario Castillo Electric.

I had an EV charger to install, and I needed it to be done by a licensed electrician in order not to lose the warranty on the charging equipment. It had to be one of the easiest EV charger installations ever (it's about 2 feet from my electrical panel), but other electricians were quoting the ridiculous prices.
Mario Castillo looked at all of the photos I sent, quoted the best price, and his technicians did exactly what they told me they would do. They even did a pretty good job on the drywall and the new piece of conduit they put in is not visible, which is more than I can see for whatever contractors the previous owners of my house used.

After you've gone through a few bad contractors you realize how much you value the ones that are dependable and do a great job. Mario & team consistently surpass all expectations and I'm incredibly grateful that I found them on Yelp 2 years ago.
After much thought and postponement, we finally decided to have our house rewired (knob & tube wiring replaced). Knowing that it would be an expensive and disruptive process we wanted to make sure that we picked the best team for the job. After speaking to multiple firms we decided to go with Mario & crew as the estimate was fair and, most importantly, Mario put me at ease that he knew what he was doing.
This was also in late summer of 2020 when things were still fairly shut down due to Covid. The team made the process as minimally disruptive as possible which allowed us to stay in the house for a few days while they started their work. This saved us the additional hotel stay that we would've had to spend money on.
All along the way Mario and crew were fantastic guides through the process and would recommend solutions (like where to place the light switch, or how many outlets) when I was lost.
The end result turned out great and I'm so glad that we made the decision to replace the wiring. It allowed us to finally tackle some other home renovations without the fear that we'd need to tear out a wall to replace the wiring in the future.
Since then, we've used them to install an EV charger and a couple of additional outlets. They are always quick to schedule and respond to requests. Most importantly, Mario's crew are some of the nicest people you'll meet. I no longer fear having electrical work done because I know who to reach out to.
Technicians replaced a socket and light fixtures quickly and efficiently. Very good work. Will use Mario Castillo again.

Very responsive but I had to cancel on them last year because our situation resolved itself.
This year, I had them coming but I guess the job wasn't big or expensive enough to bother so eventually the conversation just ended without any more emails. I don't know if that is good or bad but my problem is still unresolved by anyone.
My wife and I had a laundry list of electrical to-do's and Mario Castillo Electric took care of them all! After getting on the phone with Mario directly, we went down the list I had and he took the time to have me explain it and understand what we were looking to do. Even his follow up with the quote and a couple adjustments went smoothly. His team arrived within the time frame given, with a beneficial reminder the day before. They got right to work after double checking the list of tasks and were professional in all aspects. Once everything was done they took me around to make sure everything was working and done to spec; which it was perfectly. I highly recommend giving them and chance and your money if you have the opportunity. Thanks very much for all your help guys!
Amazing service! We needed to replace our sub panel. William and Rudy came to do the work today. They were on time, polite, and professional. They worked all day quietly and left the space very clean. Plus they did a great job repairing the drywall! Highly recommend!
Mario Castillo Electric is a great place to go to with if you need electrical work done. They are honest, local, and very informative. They did exactly what I wanted and made it look aesthetically pleasing. Will call them again for work in the future and will recommend them to family and friends.
We have an old house that needed to be completely rewired. While Mario's quote was not the lowest, it was clear that the job would be done professionally, up-to-code, and with absolutely no corners cut. Mario himself came out to make sure that everything was being done properly, his crew were fast and friendly, and they even finished a few days early. The finish of the work was exceptional - they really thought about how not to disrupt a lot of the period details in our house and drywall/plaster patches they did looked better than the original work. When we called after the project was finished with a few outlets that needed to be serviced, they came out immediately to fix them. The level of service we received was awesome and now we can be confident that the job was done right.

Great experience installing my ChargePoint EVSE. Estimate performed virtually and delivered through their online system. Great communication from Mario who answered all my questions quickly.
Day of install, I got a text giving me their estimated time of arrival and link to the map of their location.
Install went great and the guys did quality work including cleaning up afterwards. Car is charging as expected at its max of 16A. Hoping to test full the full 50A max of the EVSE soon.

Our business had some issues with a light switch and an exhaust fan, at a time in which we just happened to be considering looking for a new electrician for our regular service. We reached out to Mario Castillo who sent a technician for a site visit, provided us a very reasonable quote, and were extremely easy to work with on scheduling our appointments.
The technicians who came were knowledgeable, efficient, and provided great work. We were very pleased with the overall service and will definitely reach out to Mario Castillo for our future electrical needs.

I've used Mario Castillo twice now. First for a panel upgrade to 200 amps and just now to add some switch legs, fixtures, and outlets. They're very responsive, easy to chat with over text, and had no problem making sure our quote reflected what we wanted to get done. I have used other electricians in a different SoCal region and Mario's prices were better and they did a better job. I think their prices are fair.
I don't normally like to make reviews because you really don't know what to believe and by whom the reviews are written by. We had a home fire, and so I began looking for electricians through Google. I came across Mario Castillo Electric. I read the high, ranking reviews and decided to give them a call. We already had a bid from another electrician that our contractor's electrician had given us, but we wanted another estimate, so I reached out to Mario Castillo Electric. I spoke to a Mario (not sure if it was the owner or not). He asked if we had other estimates. I said yes, and he asked if he could see the estimate so that his company could be as competitive as possible. I showed them a copy. We set up a walk through date. After walking through Giovanni, said it would be a day or so for them to get back to us with an estimate. Actually at the close of that day, they gave us a price. We found the price a little too steep, so we asked if they had any discounts and they took about 4,000.00 off the price AND we got way more than the other electrician offered to give us in his estimate.
Anthony and his crew did an amazing job! Showed up on time, Always took the time to keep us informed. They even stayed and worked in the dark. That is dedication. The whole job took a little more than 2 weeks because we kept changing things. Thanks Mario, Giovanni, Liz, Anthony and the rest of your crew for being so Great with us. I wish you nothing but continued Success

Mario and his entire team including Joanne at the office were incredible to work with.
They installed an EV charger in our condo parking spot. We had a lot of hurdles to get through with the process because we had to go through our HOA but Mario and his team were very helpful through it all.
From the day he came to quote us to the day of installation and inspection, Mario and his team were really solid to work with. I would highly recommend using them for your EV charger. They know what they are doing, they finished the job in a day and left the entire job site squeaky clean.
Installed an outlet in the garage for me. Very quick with estimating and responding to messages. Technician was a little late but apologized. He was very courteous and quick with the service.

I can't say enough good things about Mario Castillo Electric. My hot tub kept shorting ever since it was installed by another electrician. For months, that electrician failed to resolve the problem and kept charging me for every failed attempt to fix it. I ended up spending thousands on that electrician who insisted there was some mysterious problem that was just a combination of several factors which would require a very expensive trial and error approach to fixing.
This just didn't ring true to me, so I finally did what I should have done at the beginning and decided to call a different electrician for another opinion. I called Mario Castillo Electric, and their technician immediately diagnosed and fixed the problem. Their prices were reasonable, they patiently explained the problem to me, and I haven't had any problems with my hot tub since.
It turned out that my previous electrician used cheap wiring which caused my tub to keep shorting. The problem is that if you're not an electrician, there's no way to know if your electrician is taking cheap shortcuts. Most people don't normally think to ask their electrician if they're using quality wiring. I was fooled by really positive reviews and ratings for that electrician as apparently, the people wrote those reviews had no idea he takes cheap shortcuts and won't know the difference until something goes wrong later..
Mario Castillo Electric, on the other hand, are honest professionals who are masters of their craft and make sure the job is done well. From now on, I'm only going to call them for any of my electrical needs!
I was very impressed by their commitment to the customer. Rudy, the electrician assigned showed up on time, was very courteous and friendly and did an outstanding installation of my EV charger.
They handled the permit process and was prompt to attend the inspection by the City of Rancho Palos Verdes.
This is the most professional group of electricians in my area, and I give them my highest recommendation. You will not be sorry if you pick Mario Castillo Electric.

What can I say about Mario Castillo Electric? We have used their services several times and have never been disappointed. We called Mario as our ceiling fans and overhead lights stopped working. We called on a Saturday and he came out within an hour. He was able to find the short in our bathroom fan. He discovered a wire in the attic had been chewed. I'll just leave that issue right there. We set up an appointment for the following Wednesday, since we had planned to be out of town. His crew showed up on time and were super efficient. They were here until 8pm and return the following morning at 7:30 am to complete the job. They were respectful, polite, hard working and went way beyond what they were initially here to do. They were amazing! So a HUGE SHOUT OUT TO MARCOS, WILLIAM AND JONATAN. They have been here before and have such an exceptional work ethic. They work well together as a team. More importantly they are kind, experienced and willing to please their customers. Their customer service is top notch. I'm so grateful for a company and staff really take pride in their work. Also I can't forget to thank LIZBETH LUNA for her patience and excellent customer service. Thanks again Mario Castillo Electric for your valued service and great staff!

Mario has an excellent group of workers. I had a light box for ceiling fan installation to both of my upstair bedrooms. There was a miscommunication with me and the first two workers that came. I sent Mario a message regarding it and the very same day Liz, the one who does scheduling, contacted to book another appointment to fix the issue. It was a relief that Mario's team was able to promptly resolve the issue. I was very happy with both set of workers and with the end result. I forgot the first two workers name but the two were very friendly and respectful. The second two workers (Rudy and his partner) were also amazing and clean. Glad to find Mario here on Yelp and to find an honest group of workers. I would definitely recommend Mario's team for any electrical work and I will definitely come back to them for future work. Thank you Mario and team for your hard work!
Mario and his team did a great job wiring and installing an outlet for me. From Yelp response, provided estimate, answered my questions, scheduling, and performing the install.

This review is long over due. I hired Mario to do a electrical panel upgrade which went well, then I hired Mario to rewrire my house that went horrible Mario is a nice knowledgeable guy but he hired the worst helpers ever. They started cutting holes in the ceiling without them being aligned. I told Mario and they started cutting more holes in the ceiling trying to get them aligned. Leaving the misaligned holes. No attempt to patch or repair. My ceiling looked like Swiss cheese and he was okay with it.
Mario said he could do the job in 2 days. He stayed until 7pm on the last night not completing the job. He had to come back and finish what he had left. I wish I had taken more pics but I didn't think of it at the time.
If you use this guy, make sure to look over all the work very carefully. There were a lot of corners that were cut.
I have not nor would I use him again.
We are not impressed with this company. We used this company because they gave us the best referrals but our experience wasn't not good. We hired this company to fix the issues that our last contractor didn't finish. They sent a person to do a diagnostic, and after we agreed to the quote a person came supposedly to do all the job that was in the first invoice. They claimed that everything was completed but it wasn't true. Even though they charged us for the permit and for the time that they had to wait when the inspector came, they never pulled the permit. At the time, I called the lady who told me oh I thought you already had the permit. Second issue was that was that they supposedly fixed the circuit for the pool but they did wrong. They connected the pool filter with the pool lights and we now we can't run the pool equipment due to this issue. I had to call many times and they sent someone the same day after I explained that the plaster was new and we needed to run the equipment. At the time the technician came he started arguing with me and refused to do the job. I had to show him the invoice that I paid for that job and finally he did it. I had to have an other argument because I had been charged to label the panel and they never did it. I had to call again because they put the wrong cables in the tankless water heater. Another technician came and brought the wrong cable again. We paid separate invoices for different jobs but none of the jobs were done right at the first time. So far they came to our property multiple times to fix issues that they caused. Also, they charged us for an arc fault breaker $95, then we had issues. The technician came to take those breakers with him and we are still getting charged. After I called they deduct $75 from the invoice and returned one of the breakers. The last time they came they did a wrong connection in the light switch and they decided to install a light switch in one area and put a remote sticking out of my wall that looks horrible. They didn't ask if we want that. Finally on Friday the owner Mario contacted us but he never accepted all the mistakes that his workers did. He was complaining about the money is costed him to send his workers to our house. We realized that he cares more about the money than his client. I would like to clarify that he sent his workers more than 3 times because they didn't do the job right the first time. Definitely we are not using this company again.

This has become our go-to company for all electrical needs. This time it was a simple switching of an 220 to 115 outlet. But no matter how complex or easy the job, they are outstanding in the communication, courtesy and expertise they display.

I greatly appreciated the quick turn around, detail and personal attention that Mario provided in his itemized quotes throughout multiple stages of our 4 month project together. The customer service team did a great job with scheduling and arrival notifications, and the electricians always arrived quickly and on time.
The team could do a better job covering the work areas before they start generating dust and soldering spatter, but Mario sent out a cleaning crew to address the worst of the mess. It also seems that their project history database could be refined a bit more - when the ceiling fan malfunctioned and needed to be replaced a week after they installed it, customer service couldn't find a record of having completed the work because it was part of a quote from months earlier; however, the issue was quickly resolved and the fan was replaced free of charge.
I was very impressed with the skill and knowledge of the electricians and pleased with the overall quality of work. I had a very positive experience working with the Mario Castillo team.
I did an electric panel upgrade, kitchen rewire and some electrical run underground to the garage. The owner, Mario has very dedicated employees. Everyone who worked on the job were knowledgeable and hard working. Every day before they left, they cleaned up after themselves. I was really impressed with that part as many workers will leave the house a mess; not these guys. I have to give a shout out to Johnathan and Juan Carlos who were on the job every day. Johnathan bore the brunt of my many questions and was always very polite. The office staff was amazing and really on the ball. Thanks to Liz, Mario R. and Joanne. I will use them again in the future.
After 20 years in my circa 1970 house in PVE, I finally decided to upgrade the electrical panel to 200anp s to get ready for electric car charging and maybe a solar panel install later. Mario ccame out on time for an on site inspection and gave me a quote by email that day. I got a date about two weeks later and they are here on time and worked nonstop from 830am to 6 pm over two days. Fantastic service and excellent quality work at a very competitive price. Can't be happier.

THE BEST! It's always bit scary to do a large electrical job using a new company but Mario's incredibly confident team made upgrading my electrical panel an easy and lovely experience. William and Marcos are 2 of the hardest working, most respectful and kindest - yes, kindness matters - young men out there. They were on time, gave updates on progress and did an amazing cleanup in the dark w headlamps. Alexis came back to label everything -DEFINITELY pay for this additional service, well worth it - and was also lovely. Liz in the office is professional and on point. The job passed city inspection w/flying colors and I have found my new 'go-to' electrical company. No wonder they have all 5 stars rated - well deserved!!
I made a post already but wanted to follow up with an update. I had a sub panel installed in my garage that powers my pool. I noticed later that my pool was not turning on. Called Mario he came quickly increased the AMP all within like 20 minutes. Excellent and super responsive service!
We purchased a home that had very old electrical work and the entire house needed to be replaced. Mario Castillo and his team rewired the entire house and went above in beyond. Installed an ev charger included and came back and fixed any issues at all we had after it was done. Would one hundred percent recommend them.

Had Mario and his team do some electrical upgrades recently at my home.
He was very professional, clean, on-time, and best of all stuck to the original quote. I can not say enough about how pleased I was working with his company. I have been spreading the word to others in need of electrical services. I only wish he did roofs also -lol
Our experience with Mario Castillo Electric was an outstanding one. From Lizbeth, who scheduled our service, to Antony, our technician, our expectations were exceeded. Antony arrived on time and completed the service swiftly, professionally and on cost, walking me through his process every step of the way. The next time we have an electrical problem, we're calling Mario Castillo Electric!

I'm happy to share with you that my experience with Mario Castillo Electric was wonderful. I had Mario and his crew install a new electrical outlet and 20amp circuit breaker in my man cave. I needed a socket on a wall for my TV and guitar amp so I could enjoy playing guitar. Mario's crew did an excellent job! I used Yelp to find a reputable licensed electrician in my area and I found Mario Castillo Electric. They had the most reviews and they were nearly all were 5 stars. I called Mario and explained the work I needed done. His office staff gave me an appointment and Mario arrived on time the next day to look over the house and provide advice, options, and quote. Mario was very professional and explained a couple of options for my very old house. I received a written quote via email within 15 minutes of Mario leaving my house. The price for the job was reasonable so I accepted the quote.
I really have to compliment the communication I received from Mario and his staff. I had a question about the quote which I emailed. I received an answer with 15 minutes which satisfied my question so I accepted the quote. Within 30 minutes his office called me and scheduled an appointment for his crew to do the work. They were very busy with work and so they scheduled an appointment for the following Tuesday. However, they had a cancellation on Friday and called me to ask if I would prefer to have the work done on Friday. I happily accepted the Friday appointment.
On Friday morning I received a text confirming the appointment. When the two man crew arrived I received a text informing Mario's electricians had arrived at my house. I greeted the two very professional men who were dressed in professional uniforms and showed them the breaker panel, wiring raceway through my garage and house, my attic and the man cave where I needed the electrical outlet to be installed. The crew got to work right away and finished the job in a timely manner. When they needed to cut a hole in my wall they men consulted me to ask if it was OK and where I would like the hole to be cut. Mario's crew took before and after photos of all the work and cleaned up after themselves leaving no trace of debris. The outlet works beautifully and and I'm now a happy electric guitar player without worry of running extension cables to outlets far from the location of my amp and pedals. I could not be happier with the service, communication and job Mario Castillo Electric did for me. I definitely will be hiring them for all future electrical jobs I need done.
In the 21 years I've lived in my house I've had a lot of work done to my 1939 bungalow by a variety of contractors, workmen and handymen. One problem I frequently encountered was contractors and workmen who had poor communication, failed to keep their appointments, left before jobs were completed and ran off to work on other jobs which stretched out the job on my house from what should have been completed in the time frame quoted from days to sometimes weeks. This was not the case with Mario Castillo Electric. Mario and company have exceptionally great communication, arrived on time, worked efficiently and completed the job in three hours. The crew was respectful and professional. I am really so impressed with this company. The owner, Mario really knows what he's doing and truly knows how to run a top notch service company. I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. They will not let you down and they will leave you a satisfied customer.

Mario did a great job installing my two bathroom fans. One had to be installed from scratch because there was no fan in the bathroom. I feel they gave me a fair price for the job. I would recommend them.
Great job installing our new doorbell! Found Mario Castillo on yelp. They sent an estimate promptly and came over to install the doorbell within a few days.
Had to replace a breaker at the panel.
Came on time.
They give you regular text messages to let you know when and where the technician is.
Knew exactly what to and how to fix.

I am overall happy with the work that Mario Castillo did at the house I rent out. They provided a light in the unlit garage, two bathroom fans from scratch, and an electrical supply for a kitchen range hood.
I had to install a new range hood completely from scratch, which included supplying it with electricity. Mario Castillo came and they tapped power from a nearby outlet and did a clean job of providing the electrical to the location that I told them to.
What I didn't like is that I told them that the hood would be hardwired, and I was right. I showed them the wiring diagram by email and I told them it would be hardwired, but they insisted on installing an outlet at the range hood location. I guess they didn't believe me when I said the hood would be hardwired and just needed bare wire to tap into. When the range hood installer came, they had to remove the outlet and get a separate junction box cover and bushing and add some wire because the junction box was wired for an outlet. Their outlet installation wasted me time and materials.
I emailed them several days after the job for photos that their technician took of the wiring my attic and they never responded.
There was one last bad thing. When the technicians, who did all the work, said that they were done with the fans--it turns out that they weren't. I flipped the switch on for one bathroom fan and it wasn't running; it was only running when the other fan in the other room was on. They had not detected this problem, but fortunately I caught it before they left. They said that some of the wiring in my house was crossed, which is not surprising in this annoyingly hastily constructed tract house, but detecting the initial problem was easy and something that they should have done themselves. I'll credit them that they didn't begrudge me the extra time and admitted their error and stayed to fix it, even though it was the end of the day.
The better things though were that Mario Castillo came himself for the estimate, which I liked. Although we needed a Spanish-English translator because (sadly) I betray my ancestors and don't understand much Spanish. He had a good price for all the work, so that was cool. I appreciate having a licensed electrician plan and guide stuff (Mario Castillo didn't do the work himself, I guess because it was below him; fair 'nuff). I could have had an unlicensed handyman, who says they'll do electrical, supply the range hood electricity, but I don't like to take chances on electrical. All the work was clean and good, once completely complete and personally inspected. I would go with him again, probably.

Mario is the best! He showed up on time and made all the needed repairs, as well as some I didn't know I needed. He is very knowledgeable & explained everything he was doing. Most importantly, his prices were great. I will be calling Mario for all my electrical needs.

I called Mario for a quote to upgrade my electrical panel at home. He was quick to respond to schedule appointment with me. Soon as he arrived he was wearing his mask and following all covid safety guild lines. He took a look and explain what he would need answering all my questions. He gave me a great quote and I was so impressed on how detail he was with his estimate on email. Also like that you where emailed/texted on who was going to be at your home for the project with a picture of the worker. Thought that was great!
When William arrived they where very professional wearing there mask and following all safety procedures. They upgraded 200amp Electrical Panel and knocked it out in 1 day. I was updated with emails and texts from beginning to end on there work progress. I like that they where able to provide power to my wife while she was working from home and some construction guys working in the back yard. When they where done they had everything cleaned up and power was back on! William explained to us what they did and checked to make sure all the power was on in the house and garage with no issues.
Mario arrived shortly to inspect the job and answered any questions we had. I said it looks amazing and will definitely be a plus later with adding Solar panels, pool equipment, carport charger, and AC.
Also it was all permitted, approved, passed by the City and Edison.
I'm very happy with Mario, William, and his team would would definitely use them again! Truly the best on what they do and can always count on them when you need them.

Had Mario Castillo's team install my Nest Thermostat. It was unique because the Nest isn't compatible with my condo's old heater. They were able to get it up and running with no issues. Great service. 2nd time I've use their team. They also installed some outlets on my exterior balcony. Highly recommend.
This is a mid check in even though the project is complete. I have to say so far so good. They are extremely minimalistic and careful in I would say respectful of the property. I'm soo used to seeing plumbers or electricians just knocking big holes and I don't feel it's necessary. They were respectful of the house. Will let you know the results of the finished work soon.
From the initial contact to passing final inspection, Mario and his workers did an excellent job adding a 240V line to our garage for a Level 2 EV charger.
First: Mario was early to respond and the only electrician out of the six we contacted through Yelp who actually asked to come to the house to scope out the job. His estimate made more sense than the cheaper-but-half-baked estimates from the others. He even detailed the project steps to be done, including pulling the permit.
Second: Mario knew that this upgrade would require Southern California Edison to approve the location of the electrical panel, and advised me that SCE scheduling could cause a delay. Sure enough, through a long and frustrating experience with SCE scheduling, Joanne at Mario Castillo Electric helped me keep my sanity.
Third: On the work appointment day, William and another electrician arrived promptly at 8:00am, and they were efficient and courteous. They worked tirelessly through this job that took almost 12 hours -- when they left, all the work was complete. A few days later was the inspection, and Mario came back to represent the electrical work to the city inspector. Of course, the project passed inspection.
I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. We are extremely satisfied with the quality of their work on our house, and would contact them again for any future electrical projects.
Anthony solved my electrical problem quickly. My whole experience with this business was friendly and professional from the initial phone call through the service experience. Will definitely use them again for my electrical needs.

Following the work described in my first post, we had his crew come out and redo the electrical in the garage. The project included updates to outdoor lighting, indoor (garage) lighting, and new electrical outlets (interior and exterior).
Everything went according to plan, and the service was as described in my first write-up. In this case, however, there was a problem with the way the work was done which only became apparent at night (outdoor lighting). We emailed his office, which set an appointment right away. He came out and diagnosed the problem, and then went over every inch of the work his technicians had completed.
By the end of the day, all issues were resolved - completed with a single email request to his office staff.
Everyone makes mistakes from time to time. Not everyone stands behind their work. Mario Castillo Electric still gets 5 stars.
I had a 1-1:30pm appointment today. No one showed up, no one called to say they are running late. I called them twice and it went to VM. After texting them multiple times I received a call at 2:45pm. I was told the order shows canceled but they didn't know why. I was told they could reschedule.... poor customer service. Not a good use of my time waiting at home and no one shows up.
So your answer Mario is that your work is not guaranteed after 6 months!!! Every time your company did a job for me correctly, is only when you checked up on it. This complaint, is a result of one of the times you didn't stop by. I will not do business with any company that makes me feel as though I'm on a witness stand for complaining. It's the 2nd time and there won't be a 3rd. Shame on your company! For those of you with the great reviews and yes I was one of them. just wait until your guarantee expires & Mario's company was the only one who worked on it. Yes, a Handman could notice that your company tapped into another outlet and compromised it. Your company was the only one who touched it. My integrity is high! clearly the bottom dollar is all that matters for your company. Your customer service is horrendous!!! Again, I will not be doing business with your company again!!!
I am so glad I found Mario Castillo Electric. The whole process was seamless. Customer service was amazing! I had my garage completely rewired and electrical pulled to my patio cover. Mario came to inspect the project site for the quote and sent it within 48 hours! Next thing i know i have an appointment and the job is done. The team that did the work at my house always had a genuine smile, so friendly. They arrived on time, cleaned up when they left. The whole process exceeds expectations for sure! It was so effortless. I wont go anywhere else. Thank you to all!
We contracted the folks at Mario Castillo Electric to upgrade our aging home electrical panel, bumping up from 100A to 200A service, and added a 240 line for an EV charger. They were able to answer all my initial questions, and provided a detailed itemized quote before starting the work. The level of detail and the competitive price led me to chose them over other companies I got quotes from. They were very communicative and helpful in scheduling the work, and the technicians that performed the install were friendly and professional. Highly recommended.
As a new homeowner I didn't know who to call for issues my home inspector pointed out. Referrals from family & friends were a letdown, so I put it off for a few months until I had no choice - the power went out in my kitchen/laundry. Went onto yelp and found Mario Castillo Electric with all the great reviews you've been reading, but admittedly was still skeptical after the previous referrals had fallen through.
After speaking with Flor (an all-around joy to speak with), Mario came out within a couple hours and let me know it was a SoCal Edison issue (wind+tree+power lines which they were able to fix same-day), while providing a quote for a panel upgrade and whole home rewiring. Mario was friendly and knowledgable, so I got the ball rolling on the panel upgrade & an EV charger installation - asking lots of questions along the way. Before that work was done I recommended them to my Father for an EV charger in the meantime, and he was very happy with the work done.
Today they came and upgraded my panel and added a charging outlet for my car, doing an all around excellent job. Looking forward to installing a hot tub and getting my house rewired with Mario Castillo Electric in the not too distant future. It's a good feeling knowing I have an electrician I can count on for any future jobs/issues.
Did a great job adding an outlet for our spa. Also, did trouble shooting for our garbage disposal-very reasonably priced.
Mario and his crew installed overhead lighting into our townhome. They did an amazing job and maintained everyone's safety with our very high ceilings. I would highly recommend this electrician.
I contacted Mario Castillo Electric to get an estimate to install a 240V outlet for a Level 2 car charger. Mario came on time, masked, to look at the project and provide an estimate. I reviewed the project with Mario, including what I needed and what I wanted and Mario was able to provide an estimate based on the specifics of the project. (I'm very particular about how my home looks so I was very picky about what I wanted). Mario was NOT the lowest priced, but as I had hired him and his team for other projects and I was extremely happy, I agreed to the estimate. Mario's team came as scheduled and they did a fantastic job (once again) on installing a 240V outlet in my garage where one didn't exist, and mounting the JuiceBox car charger in my garage. I HIGHLY recommend Mario and his team and they ALWAYS deliver a fantastic and professional job.

Had them out for several repairs, adjustments, and installations across the last two months. Very happy with the work they did, from rebalancing the load in our breaker panel, to upgrading electrical outlets, to removing hard wires and replacing them with outlets, to under cabinet lighting. Everything works great and looks great. There was even one appointment where I urgently needed them the next day due to some scheduling issues on my part and they were able to fit me in!
I called Mario Castillo electric on a Friday Afternoon as I had lost power to all my electrical outlets in my home kitchen and bedroom. He actually answered his phone, no answering machine, amazing. I told him my problem, he said he was on a job and he would be able to come by Monday Morning. He came as scheduled and spent a few minutes tracing my problem which turned out to be panel related. He explained everything to me and a solution, He was professional, courteous, and reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend him.

Hiring a contractor can be a nerve-wracking experience but not with this company. Called yesterday and got an appt. for first thing this morning. The techs showed up right on time, they were both friendly, introduced themselves, and went right to work. They diagnosed the problem which fixed both issues I had. The invoice was exactly what they said it would be and they did exactly what they said they would do for the price. They were very professional and I like the tech tracker showing their location as they are on their way. Digital invoicing, online payments, super professional. One never hopes they need an electrician but if I do again I will be calling Mario Castillo.

Mario sent two top notch electricians to my house to troubleshoot an electrical problem. They worked hard and hustled to find the source of the problem which was inadvertently caused by the previous electrician. My electrical problem was solved and all is well once again at my home. I am so grateful to Mario and his team.

These guys are awesome! I needed a double light switch that the top switch controlled a closet light and the bottom switch controlled a wall plug. I wanted just a single light switch and the plug to be independent from the switch. They gave me an appointment for 2 days away, but then sent me a text saying they had a cancellation for the next morning at 8 AM. I took it! They were on time, and it took, maybe 15 minutes to do the work! I'm very satisfied!

Requested service from Mario Castillo Electric, very quick response back. I choose Castillo based on all of the 5 stars they received on Yelp. I was aware of the $172.00 flat rate fee, but I also thought I had an electrical issue in the wall. I explained that I had a single outlet at the end of a series of outlets that was dead. I replaced the outlet and still didn't work. Checked with a volt meter and a 2 wire light device to detect if there was a current, nothing.
The appointment was a few days later, the electrician came early. He came in tested the wiring and it was still hot. To be honest, not sure what had happened??? Electrician checked the next outlet in series, it was good.
My only advice to future customers is to make sure the job is truly worth the flat rate of $172. I made the mistake of thinking mine was, however it wasn't. In the future, I would find an electrician or company that would have the courtesy of pro-rating the 10 minute visit or lower flat rate.
My mistake.
I would recommend Mario Castillo Electric. They are very strong with communication and follow up. Always sent reminders, technicians showed up on time or early. I had new wiring and a switch installed for some track lighting in my living room. I did not think to mention when booking the appointment that I wanted the switch to be a dimmer. The tech didn't have one with him, so he put in a standard switch, and they returned another day to swap it out. It's done now and works great. They are very professional. My only issue was that the first team spoke limited English and my Spanish language skills are very weak. We managed, but with a little effort. I would still call them again for future work.
I'm happy to share with you that my experience with Mario Castillo Electric was wonderful. I had Mario and his crew install a new electrical outlet and 20amp circuit breaker in my man cave. I needed a socket on a wall for my TV and guitar amp so I could enjoy playing guitar. Mario's crew did an excellent job! I used Yelp to find a reputable licensed electrician in my area and I found Mario Castillo Electric. They had the most reviews and they were nearly all were 5 stars. I called Mario and explained the work I needed done. His office staff gave me an appointment and Mario arrived on time the next day to look over the house and provide advice, options, and quote. Mario was very professional and explained a couple of options for my very old house. I received a written quote via email within 15 minutes of Mario leaving my house. The price for the job was reasonable so I accepted the quote.
I really have to compliment the communication I received from Mario and his staff. I had a question about the quote which I emailed. I received an answer with 15 minutes which satisfied my question so I accepted the quote. Within 30 minutes his office called me and scheduled an appointment for his crew to do the work. They were very busy with work and so they scheduled an appointment for the following Tuesday. However, they had a cancellation on Friday and called me to ask if I would prefer to have the work done on Friday. I happily accepted the Friday appointment. On Friday morning I received a text confirming the appointment.
When the two man crew arrived I received a text informing Mario's electricians had arrived at my house. I greeted the two very professional men who were dressed in professional uniforms and showed them the breaker panel, wiring raceway through my garage and house, my attic and the man cave where I needed the electrical outlet to be installed. The crew got to work right away and finished the job in a timely manner. When they needed to cut a hole in my wall they men consulted me to ask if it was OK and where I would like the hole to be cut. Mario's crew took before and after photos of all the work and cleaned up after themselves leaving no trace of debris. The outlet works beautifully and and I'm now a happy electric guitar player without worry of running extension cables to outlets far from the location of my amp and pedals. I could not be happier with the service, communication and job Mario Castillo Electric did for me. I definitely will be hiring them for all future electrical jobs I need done.
In the 21 years I've lived in my house I've had a lot of work done to my 1939 bungalow by a variety of contractors, workmen and handymen. One problem I frequently encountered was contractors and workmen who had poor communication, failed to keep their appointments, left before jobs were completed and ran off to work on other jobs which stretched out the job on my house from what should have been completed in the time frame quoted from days to sometimes weeks. This was not the case with Mario Castillo Electric. Mario and company have exceptionally great communication, arrived on time, worked efficiently and completed the job in three hours. The crew was respectful and professional. I am really so impressed with this company. The owner, Mario really knows what he's doing and truly knows how to run a top notch service company. I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. They will not let you down and they will leave you a satisfied customer.

I highly recommend Mario and his crew, they are knowledgeable, professional and friendly, I had recess lighting and pendant lights in my dining room and some few other fixes and they did an amazing job! There was a fixture on my outlet that didn't work after the installation and I called to let them know and Mr Mario himself came back to fix it very fast. I definitely hire them again!

We bought an older home back in July and I was looking for a local, reliable electrician that could help us with some upgrades. I first contacted Mario Castillo Electric to have our electrical panel upgraded and not only did they provide a reasonable rate, but his team was able to install the recessed panel, run a ground wire through the house and patch the stucco all in one day! Just this week I called on their services again to swap some of our recessed lights for new semi-flush mount fixtures and both times I've been really happy with the quality work. Mario's team always arrives on time (if not early), the office communication is great, and we will definitely be calling them again when we are ready to do more work. Highly recommend.

Mario Castillo was able to send a tech at end of the day. He was on time, friendly, & masked. It was our best experience with an electrician!
EXCELLENT SERVICE!
Great communication via text, email, and calls from start to finish. From speaking with the receptionist to schedule our first appointment, I could tell I would be happy with this company. Mario came out to inspect our problem and gave a quote. We needed a new electrical panel. Mario sent out two of his guys in the morning and the job was done by 3pm despite a couple of obstacles with our house. The electrical panel hadn't been updated since the 60s so we anticipated some type of obstacle. My husband who has worked for big plumbing and HVAC companies was very happy with their work. They did not try to upcharge or charge us for things we did not need. I will definitely contact this company again for future electrical needs.
they show up on time, and do a great job. they diagnose the problem instead of just listen my poor descriptions. find the problem and fix it. good job!!!
Very professional and excellent service! Mario's team upgraded my panel, rewired my garage and added new circuit breakers. They committed to getting the job done within 2 days and delivered! They also had a very professional front desk and easy proposal/estimate approval process as well as making payment. I definitely will use them again and highly recommend Mario.
Highly recommended! Prompt, courteous, and very professional! I wouldn't hesitate to hire again
Mario and his team are great to work with. They listened to everything I requested and were flexible when it came to changes with our requests. William, Johnathan, Alexis, and Ricardo did a great job with our panel upgrade and EV charger install. Mario is very professional and provides great insight while listening to what you're looking for. If you're looking for an electrician, I'd highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric.
Mario Castillo Electric did a phenomenal job running new wires, conduit and installing new sconce on each side of my garage door.
These guys are professionals and will help you explore different options with on what would be better. Highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. I have future projects in mind and will be using them.
Thanks Mario!
This is the second time I've used them. They are great, always professional, and punctual. I highly recommend them.
Now if I could only find a plumber as good as them!
Mario Castillo Electric was responsive and professional. They diagnosed and fixed our issue the same day. I will definitely call them again for any of my electrical needs.
Mario was great! Knew exactly what to do with my home electric problems. Friendly, professional, and explained everything to me. Planning to work with him again! Would definitely recommend.
Also, he and his staff are fully practice COVID-19 precautions!

Mario Castillo and team is a very efficient and knowledgeable team. We hired them to rewire our kitchen and upgrade our panel. They were very friendly, cleaned up after themselves, and very trustworthy to let into our home. Our kitchen has been half working since we moved in, and I am so happy our kitchen is now running at 110%! Not only are the electricians are amazing, communication was on point. They probably have the best communication I've seen in a company. EVERYTHING is well documented, and Liz and Joanne were so easy to reach regarding any questions (and i had a lot). I would definitely hire them again for any future electric jobs.

Great service and pricing! I originally went with another company that never showed up for the estimate, with no notice, and so I reached out to Mario who was able to come by next day for a quote.
He and his team were extremely professional, nice, and clean. They did a great job, were knowledgeable, and we are so very happy.
Will definitely go to them when we have more work!
Great communication and really reliable. We had multiple electrical needs (removing ceiling fans, replacing old lights, replacing an address light, etc) and will be calling them back for future projects!
There's a reason why they have such a high rating. This company is amazing! The high level of communication, promptness, and all of the staff being so friendly makes them an outstanding company.

Quick & efficient with honest pricing! Mario responded quickly to my messages and was very clear on labor and cost. Sergio arrived on time and they have a text service that keeps you updated on when he would arrive and once he started. Loved that. When Sergio arrived he walked me through the plan and the rest was history! He communicated with me throughout the entire process. Very very satisfied with the level of communication and support. Would 100% work with Mario and his team again. If you are looking for an electrician I HIGHLY recommend them! THANK YOU!
Mario and his team just completed a whole home re-wire and panel upgrade on our house from the 1920's and we are beyond impressed! Mario's crew was professional, courteous, extremely hard working. As new homeowners, we have heard horror stories about getting this type of extensive work done on a home and our experience with Mario was the complete opposite. Communication was great and the job was completed ahead of schedule. He used good quality products and walked us through what to expect before during and after the work was complete. We would recommend Mario for ANY jobs big or small. Thank you to the entire team at Mario Castillo!

Although the timeline did not work for me at all, the phone was quickly answered and a date for their availability was given to me in minutes.
I had a light fixture that needed to be installed, and Mario sent Hector over to help me out. Hector was extremely professional, friendly and fast. He really knew his stuff. Hector was also able to look at a future project that I had in mind and provided me with great ideas on how to move things forward. I will definitely use these services again. Thank you Hector!
Absolutely loved our experience with Mario Castillo Electric. We originally only planned to have overhead lighting installed in our dining - but the experience from start to finish was so good (including the pricing) that we decided to have them replace our electrical panel. We also recommended them to my MIL - who ended up getting new overhead lights in her kitchen with MCE. Hard working, diligent, reliable, fastidious, friendly - everything you could want in a home improvement vendor, these guys have got it. Thank you so much, MCE - I'm sure we'll reach out to you with more upgrade plans soon!!
I've had Mario out to the house twice for separate issues and both times I was impressed with his work. First time was to fix electrical that got messed up during a kitchen remodel. My disposal no longer had power and my wall sockets were dead. Mario came out, was punctual and fixed the whole mess in two hours. He installed a new switch for the disposal and fixed the wiring in the wall that was hooked up incorrectly after the new counters were installed.
Next time out I wanted an outdoor outlet installed on my patio and a bathroom outlet had stopped working.
He came with another one of his employees and they took care of the whole thing quickly, did super clean work and charged a very reasonable price.
Bonus points for being from the same neighborhood, so my money stays local.
I'll never call another electrician, these guys are the best.
After one of our recessed ceiling lights broke causing the fluorescent bulb to stick out too far, and look bad, we knew we needed to call an electrician. I searched Yelp, and decided to call Mr. Castillo for an assessment and estimate to fix the bad light. He explained that the fluorescent bulbs were no longer the proper choice due to environmental impacts, etc., and he recommended replacing it with a more energy efficient LED light. Long story short, his reasoning made sense and his price and timing were reasonable, so we decided to change out all 21 lights in our condo to the LED lights. Hector and his assistant did a great job, and Mario even came by to inspect the job at the end to make sure everything was done properly, and to make sure that there were no smudges and fingerprints left behind on the ceiling from the work that had been done. We are very pleased with the results. All staff that I communicated with spoke (or texted) in a friendly, professional manner, and took responsibility to deal with any issues and questions that I had regarding the job.
I definitely recommend Mario Castillo Electric.
We had no electricity in laundry room and garage. This company is professional they came on time to troubleshoot the problem and fixed it right away. We are happy customers. Thank you!
Contacted Mario Electric based on the good reviews on Yelp however was really disappointed in the service (or lack there of) that I received. I needed a new light fixture placed above the kitchen sink and two outlets in two different rooms. I was contacted by someone via txt message and answered a few questions he had. After sending him a requested photo of an old outlet that was in the bathroom I never heard from him again. After a day I replied back asking for the requested estimate and I got a simple reply With knob and tube it's difficult to give an estimate ok....so you don't work with knob and tube? What is knob and tube? I was confused by his reply and after not getting more explanation I replied back saying never mind about my request and he replied with yes
I would think a profesional electrician would work on knob and tube or at least let me know he doesn't work on them. It's like pulling teeth to try and get an electrician to come out and install 3 items without having to up sell me thousands of dollars or work I don't want or need.
Edit: 6/23
Hello Mario,
NO ONE offered to come by and take a look. Your sales rep/tech lied to you. I would have gladly had someone come by to take a look but that was not offered to me. I've enclosed the entire txt message correspondence for your review and to let you know I wasn't lying. I called your office on Wednesday and a nice lady answered and said someone would reach out to me, I was contacted the next day, Thursday, and answered all the questions and submitted a picture per their request and after that I did not receive a response back. I still heard nothing back on Friday morning so I messaged them back In case that they forgot about me and all I got back was With knob and tube it's difficult to give an estimate. I waited ALL day to see if someone would offer to come by or give a simple explanation as to why it a knob and tube was complicated. I took your/their silence as a blow off and said never mind after 7 hours of waiting for a reply or a simple sorry we don't work on tube and knobs. That's it. I'm a nurse and know nothing about electrical work especially for a house that is over 100 years old. We are restoring this house to its former glory and would have been happy to listen to professionals about our current electrical wiring and gain some knowledge about do and don'ts or an updating the entire thing however I was not offered that by your company at all and the fact that they lied about offering me to come by and take a look and me declining that is really disappointing and upsetting to hear and makes me not trust this company at all.
Excellent work...COVID-19 safe electrician who did everything I needed. On time arrival and quick service. I sent pictures of what I needed, ordered parts through Amazon and Mario Installed them without a hitch. Left my house clean and put together...they even helped me get the TV back on the mount! Great job

Great work by Mario and his employees. Very responsive and good communication. Excellent final product. Would recommend to anyone and will be using them again
Mario himself came out to troubleshoot my fans that would not spin. I also asked him to fix a blown fuse and did quickly without hesitation. Mario was very professional, kind, and courteous. He explained what the issues were in my ceiling fans and solved the problem. Their prices are also very reasonable. I highly recommend Mario Castillo and his company for any and all electric needs!
Great, friendly technicians, very knowledgeable, fantastic pricing, great work! Highly recommend for any electrical work you may need.
I called Mario Castillo Electric 2 days ago to add a circuit for my electric dryer. They gave me the lowest quote and scheduled me 2 days later. Sergio and another guy came on time day of, and worked flawlessly to fix the problem we were having. Our electric dryer now has heat! Thank you Sergio. I really recommend them! Everything was done to perfection.
Backstory: The previous owners of our house had a gas dryer and we initially called our handyman to switch the lines but he wasn't able to fix our problem as the dryer was still not heating up. To make things worse, he used a line that was very dangerous. I'm so glad we hired Mario Castillo to handle this and make sure our home is in good hands

Mario was on time and very professional. We talked over the project. He gave great advice. Our new LED dimmable light along with our Kasa smart dimmer are a great combo. The dimmer works with Alexa like a charm. No hub needed.
Excellent work! We had six recessed LED lights installed in our home office. They showed up exactly on time. They were very professional and their work was impeccable. They cleaned up after their work. Wore masks. Communication was excellent as they not only communicated via phone but through text messages as well. They also gave me a very competitive estimate. I would highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric and use them for any future electrical services!
I spoke with the receptionist for a bit bec she has a sister I share my name with and she really is an asset to the company so I give 5 stars to Karen who is not a Karen :-)
I also give 5 stars to Flor who called me back to ask some questions and give me a run down on the company. She had an answer to all of my questions and wasn't rushing me or pushy and I loved that.
The 5 star reviews of Mario and his team/company is what made me want to hire them for a FULL REWIRE with extras on a duplex.
The only 2 reasons I did not get an estimate is bec they charge a $50 non-refundable fee if you do not use them. I don't like that bec if you want to charge me $30k for $15k job then I'm not going to use you and I felt like they might and that's why there's a fee. The 2nd reason I didn't use them is bec they said it will be a 5 week long job and I cannot leave tenants without electricity that long and others say they can get it done as quick as the inspections/permits take and no longer.
Since I have not used them, I cannot really review that aspect. This review is just answering YELP'S question of if I used them and why or why not :-)
Oh! A HUGE PLUS WITH THIS COMPANY, THEY LET YOU FINANCE!!! That's awesome.

I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric Inc! The technician was on time and quickly troubleshooted the issues I was having. I appreciated that the quote I was given was honest, transparent, and accurate, and perfectly reflected my final payment. I will continue to call them for services in the future.

The man. Punctual, efficient, competent, and charges reasonable prices. He correctly identified the source of a wonky grounding problem in my garage, and adjusted a conduit under my house in about an hour.
Prompt, personable, professional! Couldn't be happier. Thank you to Mario and his guys!
Already thinking about next job!
Mario's electrical did an outstanding job on installing some recessed lighting couple of new switches and of all hardwired my ring doorbell when they arrived at 8:30 AM they immediately got to work on protecting my furniture with plastic and my hardwood floors with tarps. As they went through the process of doing the work I noticed that they were extremely clean and they were very methodical when it came to getting the job done right.
I would definitely recommend Mario's electrical services I look forward to the next project, because they get it done right.
I own a dental office in Long Beach and have used Mario several times. He is always on time and very professional. I was in need of an emergency and Mario came to help me out even though he had a flight leaving in 2 hrs. I'm very happy I found someone who is reliable, fair in pricing, and very good at his job!
Five stars, 100%, easy.
After recently purchasing a flipped house, we had some electrical work that needed to be done, including enabling some outlets, adding doorbell power, installing a wired security light, and some changes to power flow in our garage.
Of the two estimates we got, Mario's estimate was not only lower, but also much more comprehensive. The other electrician we consulted was planning on doing much more invasive work with less investigation; we purchased a flipped/fully renovated home that had two dead outlets in the dining area, and the second electrician just kind of threw up his hands and wanted to cut an entirely new outlet and run new wiring.
The electrical team that came out to us, Anthony and Carlos, did a _fantastic_ job. They not only installed the doorbell more cleanly (1 hole, patched) than the other electrician (wanted to open up significant amount of wall, wouldn't patch), but they got the two outlets working in the dining room with no wall-opening/drilling.
And I can tell you, it wasn't easy. They got deep into the crawlspace and the attic, and really went above and beyond to handle our issues.
They handled our garage perfectly as well, installing an always-powered outlet and the security light.
Anthony and Carlos were both friendly and super communicative, walked us through the work they were doing, made sure of our requests, and made sure to clean up wiring scraps at the end of the job. They definitely made us loyal customers of Mario Castillo Electric.
The next time we need electrical work done, we won't hesitate to use Mario Castillo Electric again.
Great all around ! Responsive, quick to come out and check out the work, clean, affordable, and the electrician's were all very friendly and did good work.
He was reliable, fast, and economical. He replaced our nine aging living room can lights from the 80s to modern ones. The price was really reasonable. Great experience.

Mario came out to investigate the problem I had with my low voltage system ceiling lights, and gave me a great quote. His crew did a great job upgrading my 70 years old light system. I'm very impressed by professional quality of him and his crew. Out of 3 electricians who came out to investigate, only he spent enough time to really look into the problem and offered different options to go about resolving the issue. On the day of project, everyone on his team was considerate enough to ask me if they should take their shoes off, just by looking at the shoes in front of the door. I appreciated that even though I didn't asked them to. I already asked Mario for a quote for the next project.
Mario and team were great to work with. They installed everything for us (200 amp panel and more) in one day and came back the next to fix a few things I had noticed. Mario came back for the inspection and we passed! We will be using their services again. Thank you for keeping our family safe.
Mario was fantastic, super impressive service all around:
1. On time and texted me to let me know that he was on his way.
2. Offered the best price for the job, by far. Charged the same as his estimate and didn't try to haggle on the price.
3. Clean, precise work. Installed a floor box outlet quickly and without any issue.
I'll be using Mario again in the future!
This is my second review for Mario Castillo Electric.
Back in October 2019 we contracted with Mario to do a badly needed full home rewire on our 1930s home out here in Long Beach. The job was completed ahead of schedule with the utmost care taken to do as little damage as possible to the plaster walls of our home.
We then noticed what looked to be arc flashing coming from beneath one of the lights in the kitchen. First thing I did was call Mario and let him know what I was seeing.
Mario was there within 30 minutes to help take a look at it. Long story short there was absolutely nothing wrong with the wiring or any of the electrical work Mario did. The flashing we were seeing was actually the sunlight coming into our attic through a vent in the roof that spins, lining up with the sunlight just right to create the illusion of electrical light flashing.
The point of this review is that Mario, months after he had completed the job, was there within 30 minutes to help a pair of neophyte home owners. Mario was not even the slightest bit irritated that he had been called over for a false alarm, and was just happy to see our house up and running with solid electrical.
If you need a job as small as hanging a new ceiling fan, or as large as a full home rewire, Mario is a fantastic electrician who will answer all of your layman questions and do an incredible job.
Thank you mario!
A well-deserved 5 star rating.
I hired Mario Castillo and crew to re-wire my house and install a subpanel in my garage over the summer of 2020 and couldn't have been happier with the Mario, his team, and the results. Throughout every step of the process I was informed of timelines, effort, budget, and schedule. I would be sent text messages and emails with appointment times; Mario would always show up on-time - if not early - every time. Mario showed up for an estimate and laid out options for work. I was sent over an estimate that weekend.
Mario's team was slammed with work over the summer and was able to schedule my home to be started in just a few weeks. Luckily for me, they work fast and offered to start on my project a week sooner. Mario's team was full of competent and experienced employees. On the first day of work I anticipated them to come in and get a lay of the land and let me know timelines -- instead Hector and Victor immediately got to work at drilling holes to rip out the existing wiring. They were incredibly nice and respectful of all of our personal belongings. We tried to make their lives as easy as possible by covering our floor with the painters paper suggested by Mario's email and covering our belongings with plastic to ensure dust doesn't get into everything. I gave Hector the keys to the house and he gave me a phone call every week to update me on the progress made and work left. Mario stopped by frequently to check-in and talk with me about the project.
They wrapped up the project sooner than expected, and scheduled the city to come out and inspect their fine work. As expected, their work passed on the first inspection and I've been using electricity without worry ever since. I couldn't recommend Mario Castillo Electric enough for any of your electrical needs.

Can't recommend Mario and his team enough, they were great to work with and did an awesome job on a complete re-wire and panel upgrade for our old house. The bid was competitive with others received and Mario and his team were easy to communicate with. Job was completed on schedule with no added costs. Installing new fixtures or special outlets after the re-wire was done for no extra cost, and house was kept as clean as possible during such a major renovation.
For anyone with an old Long Beach house that needs a complete re-wire, give Mario a call!
Mario and his crews did a great job on replacing my electrical panel. Price is very reasonable and prompt on response and follow up on any problems. I will definitely recommend his team to anyone for the professional job that they did!
Sergio was able to come earlier than scheduled which was great. He was super nice, patient, and with a little assist from Mario, got all of our problems fixed! So thankful to have everything working again! We were so worried getting hourly charge estimates from others, not knowing how difficult our issue would be, their flat fee for our job was a relief. Thank you, thank you!!

Prompt attention to detail, any questions are answered quickly and bids were submitted within a day, unlike most vendors who take days to over a week. Our HOA recommends Mario Castillo fir efficient and good work.

Mario is my go to electrician. I called him to have a 240 volt line installed for an induction stove top. He is very responsive and schedules appointment within a few days. I also had him put junction box in closets so I could install lighting. The cooktop did not fit in the counter and he cut it so the cooktop would fit. Mario and his crew were very conscientious about cleaning up during and after the job. Today I hired him to install 220 volt outlet from my old electric dryer outlet for level 2 electric car charger for my new Chevy Volt. He discussed types of electric car chargers before doing the work. He is very dependable, consistent and professional.
Mario's technician failed to show up on initial appointment due to a questionable reasoning.
Mario apologized and rescheduled following day. The technicians showed up an hour earlier than expected. They quickly worked on the project and finished it in a reasonable time. The price is also reasonable as well. I recommended Mario's company.
Mario and his crew are fantastic. I had both Mario and Sergio work on a couple projects in my home. They did a great job at a very fair price. Very professional and friendly. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them for your electrical job.
Excellent service! We originally contacted MCE regarding a fuse that kept blowing when running our dishwasher. It was linked to a larger issue with our electrical panel, so we decided to move forward with having Mario and his team upgrade our panel. We also had the guys install exhaust fans in both bathrooms.
Mario and his team were great! Covid precautions used at all times, timely, good communication with the office, and good pricing. The guys were very clean, swept up in the bathrooms and outside when they were finished. I also appreciate the ease and options for payment that this business offers clients.
Work was fast and efficient! Plus they followed COVID precautions. I highly recommend them.
Absolutely helpful! Hector was the electrician that helped me and he was super nice & friendly. He was able to inform me of every detail he encountered with my electrical issue and solved it! Would definitely recommend Mario Castillo Electric!
We had mario come to our house and give an estimate to install some fans, add grounded outlets, and update an electrical panel. His quote was much higher for fan installation. he also told me our house had no grounded outlets and we would have to rewire our entire house! Telling a homeowner that it will cost 18k off the top of your head only caused us to panic.... after getting a second estimate from another electrician, we found that we DID have some grounded outlets already and that changed/adding additional grounded outlets would not be a problem..... i don't know if Mario didnt want the job, but I felt as though he should have been honest rather than telling us we had to completley rewire a 1900 sq ft house.

Mario, Leo, and Hector just went above and beyond what I was expecting. My dad unsuccessfully installed our doorbell and we've been letting it sit broken for months. Someone stole an item straight from our front porch prompting us to quickly call mario for a long overdue issue. Appt was made promptly - the administrative staff was warm and efficient, the scheduling system was seamless and helpful. Most important the guys who came were very professional, kind, clean, and finished the project to the very end - there was a point where they could have technically accomplished the job but when we share that we really wanted the chime inside the house to work they removed the broken chime, picked up a chime for us, came back, and installed it. This is how you grow a loyal customer base - I'll be using them for electric support moving forward. Thanks team.

Mario came within a few days for a free estimate to install a 14-50 nema outlet to charge our Tesla using the mobile connector with 14-50 nema adapter. He gave me an estimate on the spot and knew right away about what the job would entail. I could tell he was experienced. The best part was the competitive pricing. Mario and his team respond quickly making communication a breeze. They were able to schedule me in the following week to do the job. The job was completed by Omar but Mario was there from time to time to make sure everything was going ok. Omar was also professional and friendly. We are very satisfied with their service. I definitely recommend Mario and his team.
GREAT EXPERIENCE
Mario came to give a quote on some work that included 3 separate areas of our home. We wanted recessed lighting and a new vent in our bathroom, a new chandelier in the dining area (which included repositioning the fixture), and a new light over our back porch. He gave us a quote for all three right on the spot and it was very reasonable. This was on a Tuesday and we scheduled the job for that same Saturday.
Sergio and Hector showed up right on time Saturday morning and got to work after letting us give them a little rundown. They were very polite an attentive and were exceptionally tolerant of our sometimes hyper 9 month old dog.
Mario came by to check on the job around mid-morning. He seemed to reassure the guys they were doing everything right. He moved along after giving his seal of approval.
We were very happy with the results by the end of the day. The little changes really gave our house a new feel and workmanship was high quality. They did a great job cleaning up as well!
Very happy with our decision to go with Mario after a number of quotes from other electricians. Highly recommend.
Mario Castillo Electric did a great job for me...Dependable, knowledgeable with great team communication skills so that the job is done right at the agreed to price. So glad I used Mario Castillo Electrical to work on my 1928 Spanish House! Highly recommend this company.

After an extensive search I found the right person with Mario and his company. Very quick to reply, friendly, professional and on time! He did great work at the company I work for. We started with setting up power for some new cubicles we had installed, but while he was here he also fixed some lights for us and installed a new time clock. We are very happy with his work and will be sure to call him again for any of our needs. Thank you Mario and Joane for great customer service.
Never expected finding and booking an electrician to be this easy! Loved that this company is fully technologically set up to notify you when your technician is on the way via text, has the option to communicate about appointment time changes/frames via text, when an invoice or deposit is due, and can send detailed quotes and estimates via email within minutes of the appointment ending. They also sent pictures of the finished work along with the final invoice, which I really appreciated. They were so smooth to work with, accommodated our tight time frame and finished the job early. Would 1000% recommend them to anyone, and will definitely be using them for all our future needs.
Mario and Leo did fantastic work lighting up my backyard.
Mario and his crew did a great job replacing some old, dated spotlights and installing some new spotlights, along with a new cabinet display light. The crew was prompt, neat, professional, and did an excellent job of cleaning up afterward and leaving everything as it was when they arrived. I would definitely recommend Mario to others.
Fair price. Work done well. Looking forward to future projects. Thanks!!

After calling several electricians and not getting a call back from most, I found Mario Castillo Electric. This company was less expensive than other electric quotes I got, and were also so impressive with how efficient they were in their communications with me. Mario came out and gave me a clear quote on several things I needed done, and I received an email soon after speaking with him with everything in writing. His staff, including electrician Sergio, came to my home to do the work on time, and were courteous and professional while they were there, and completed the work exactly as we asked them to. I am happy to have found them and plan to return to them in the future for all our electric needs. I highly recommend them if you're looking for a professional, dependable and efficient electrician.

Very professional company and individuals to work with. I had a 200-amp panel upgrade at my house and besides the great quality of work, this company communicates well and is very attentive to providing answers when prompted. One of the key reasons I chose this company was because of the finance option offered via a third party company, Wisetack. Rates were competitive as I requested 10-12 quotes from other electricians. I highly recommend anyone to hire Mario for any electrical needs.
We were looking for someone who can fix our electrical problems at home and also upgrading our electrical panel. We found this company on yelp and I can say, We definitely made the right choice!
Mario is very nice and very easy to talk to. He even gave us good discounts and even added one line for free! I appreciate him and his team.
I'll most definitely contact him for any of our future electrical needs. Thank you Mario!

Mario was able to give an honest quote and come out in short notice to add some outlets in the garage. He and his employee William were punctual and polite, practiced good COVID protection and completed the job in good time.
Quick service and estimate. Exceeded expectations and was honest and straightforward. I've found our new electrition. Thank you!
Yelp reviews pointed me to the direction of Mario and his team. The glowing reviews did not disappoint, and one would be hard pressed to find a more professional business model as Mario Castillo Electric. Aside from the incredibly professional job Sergio and Daniel did on our extreeeeemely long list of electrical fixes and upgrades, this company's attention to detail, great use of technology and incredibly nice people puts them at the top of my list. They knew what they were doing, they knew what WE wanted done, took precise notes, texted confirmations, arrived on time, worked fast but carefully. Great job.

So happy I found Mario Castillo Electric...they were very responsive and professional. They were available for my request quickly and finished the work in a very timely manner. I will definitely be a return customer. Thank you!!
We recently contracted with Mario Castillo Electric for the installation of 2 ceiling fans and an 8 light living room ceiling fixture. Mario came initially for the quote and was highly professional and a pleasure to meet with. Due to a very slow delivery on a ceiling light fixture it took about two months before we could move forward with project. They were patient and gracious with the slow timeline. Our electrician was Sergio and he was excellent, he arrived on time (or actually a bit early) and was kind and professional throughout the visit. There were a couple unexpected issues with the ceiling fans, but Sergio was able to work around the unexpected findings and obtain a perfect install. The light fixture turned out to be a complex assembly and was made from low quality material (I made a mistake and purchased it from a non reputable company). Sergio was able to assemble and install the low quality fixture and then we learned it was not dimmable as we had wanted and as it was described online. None of that was Sergio's fault and he even installed a switch to allow us to use the light fixture until we could decide on a replacement. Even though this took a good amount of time and effort, Sergio did not charge us at all for the work related to the ceiling light. We still haven't decided on a new fixture, but would be grateful and happy if Sergio returned to install it. Great company and great technicians/electricians. Will definitely use them again and recommend them highly.
Mario was on time, friendly, and professional. I had 2 dead external outlets that he quickly troubleshot and fixed in time for a party I'm having this weekend. I will definitely be booking his services for future projects requiring electrical expertise.
I had an electrical problem in my condo, called Mario Castillo explained the issue and was quoted a flat rate for inspection and repairs. It turned out to be a bad circuit breaker in my electrical box, the weird thing is when I turned the breaker off about 3/4 of the outlet in my kitchen worked and when I turned it on everything in the kitchen went off.
Stuff like this me is beyond my comprehension. Mario arrived exactly at the scheduled time, did some trouble shooting and after about 1/2 an hour explained to me what the problem was and how he fixed it.
Mario was very nice, definitely Covid-19 prepared and cleaned-up when he was done.
I would definitely recommend his company and services if you have an electrical problem.

I've used Mario twice first to install 6 outlets and another time to hard wire my dental office. Mario is very professional. Showed up on time and finished when he said he would. Highly recommend Mario electric!
I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric's outstanding service! We had a specific request, and they took the time to explain our options clearly to understand what could and could not be done. Very fair pricing as well. I have other projects planned and will be reaching out to Mario and his team for their service.

I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. From the beginning the communication was great! Confirmation was easy. The technician, Sergio, was courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable. I will continue to keep Mario Castillo Electric as my go to electrician and they will be an easy referral for me to offer.
Mario, you are not gonna find anything in yelp inbox, because I called offoce 1st time November 6th and 2nd time 10th at 12:53. Don't know the person with who I spoke with. You can try with them, I left my name and number twice. Dusan is the name as you can see from Yelp profile.
Updating. Mario/representative contacted me after yelp review. I was called, but eventually they told me that they are not repairing electrical heating. Strange, but fair enough. I can live with delayed call back.

I have used Mario for 2 different electrical jobs. Both were done professionally and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend using Mario and his staff for all your electrical needs!!!
Mario and his team put in a new electrical panel for us and their work is great. Their pricing is extremely fair. Mario came out himself to quote the work and came to supervise the work as well. They did a great job and were very clean. We will be using them for all electrical work.
Great experience. I had a simple job, but Mario used photos to give me a fixed price, he came as soon as I could see him, did the work, fixed the problem, was very polite and courteous. I will call him again if I need another job done. Thanks, Mario
Recently installed lighting for my visually impaired aunt's condo. Excellent experience. Very professional, accurate estimates and work done within projected time frame. Exceeded expectations, and highly recommend.
These guys worked super hard all day and got the outlet to charge my Tesla installed perfectly, even in my old building with super old electrical work where other electricians told me they wouldn't be able to do it. Definitely trust them with your EV needs.
I received a number of estimates for a simple job where my circuit breaker kept tripping. Mario sent me a fair appraisal via yelp and set an appointment the next day. He was on time and very professional. He quickly figured out it was an old circuit breaker and swapped it out as well as another one that was also old. Super pleased with the service and will definitely use him again in the future.
Everyone from the office staff was wonderful. The technicians were Really professional and knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything in detail and answer all my questions. They were prompt and cleaned up as they went along. I'd definitely return to their company.

Loved that they showed up with a mask and completed the electrical work and installation of our Ring cameras and door bell. Great service and workmanship!
We have used Mario Castillo Electric twice now for adding electrical enhancements to our newly constructed home. We were completely satisfied both times. Mario and his crew stayed in constant communication from the time we requested a proposal to the time the jobs were completed. The electricians were professional, efficient and knowledgeable. They arrived on time, as promised, were careful in their work and cleaned up the area when they finished. We recommend them highly.
This is our 2nd time using Mario's electrical services and hands down they are the best! His team is very professional, respectful and knowledgeable. Everyone was super friendly and it almost felt like having family over. Mario worked around our crazy schedule and made our home's electrical upgrade as smooth as possible. Will definitely be using his services again. Special thanks to Mario, Joanne, Hector and the team!

I am happy to write this review of Mario Castillo Electric as I am very pleased with the level of service that was provided. We are in the process of having a swimming pool built and was in need of some electrical work. I reached out to Mario Castillo Electric after reading their Yelp reviews and my experience from the initial phone call to job completion was superb. It is what I or anyone should expect from a Contractor; they answered the phone; set up a time for a Technician to come by the house; provided an estimate and as soon as I approved the estimate, set up a date to complete the work. It seems simple, right, why is it so hard for other Contractors to do the same?
The initial phone call to the confirmation of the start date for the job all took place in less than a day. The job itself took a day and they left the site with quality workmanship. The Technicians explained the job and were open to my suggestions. I highly recommend this company.

We hired Mario Castillo after meeting with several electricians to do some repairs and upgrades on our newly purchased home. Mario was BY FAR the most professional and thorough of the bunch. Mario found things that our home inspectors and all of the other electricians missed. Mario's electricians worked very hard to update a bunch of outlets which needed grounding/repairs. They installed new lighting, outlets, and a new sub-panel in our garage. They installed lights on our front porch and cleaned up a bunch of old wiring around the house and beneath the house in the crawl space. They replaced/updated all of our smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and made sure they were in the correct locations. Mario takes a lot of pride in his work and it really shows. He and his electricians were delightful to have in and around our home. They completed all of the work in a timely manner. I will hire Mario and his guys for any or our needs in the future. Thank you for all of your super hard work!!

I needed 2 motion sensors installed outside and a regular outlet changed to a quad outside. Sergio and Alfredo were punctual and did an excellent job. The job was reasonably priced (better than other quotes I received). I would highly recommend them.
Mario completed the requested job according to expectations. He was courteous and professional. I really recommend his service.
This was a great experience. Mario Emailed me to tell me they were on their way and well within the 30 minute window. They showed on time and were very professional they both were wearing masks which was very courteous considering the times we are living in.
They diagnosed the problem and finished the repair quickly and charged me exactly what we had discussed which was much cheaper than the other for bids that I received.
I can't say much more more than I would highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric to anyone that needs an electrician.
Our original contact was with the owner Mario, he was really helpful and was really forthcoming about the work that we had wanted during our estimate.
Ozzy and William were the electricians that had spent an entire day installing numerous light fixtures and new outlets. They did such a meticulous job, super clean, and had such incredible attention to detail. They were super respectful of our home and of our space and did such a great job of cleaning up afterward.
100% will only go back to Mario for all my electrical needs and will particularly request for Ozzy and William.

I had Mario Castillo Electric come out to install an EV charger and a floodlight camera. They came out on time and finished the work quickly and cleanly. Very reasonable price as well. Everything is working great. Highly recommended!
This is the MOST professional company we have ever worked with!! We had an upgraded 200 amp electric panel installed by William & Alfredo. They we excellent and efficient. We received text/email updates before, during & after the job. The office staff was friendly & informative. Mario, the owner, walked his workers through the job prior to beginning, checked their work after, and was present when the city inspector issued the permit. We will DEFINITELY use Mario Castillo Electric again!!
Quick response. Efficient business transaction. Mario showed up on time. Fair price. Quick and thorough work. Very friendly and knew what he was doing. Easy credit card payment. Cleaned up his mess. Everything works great!! I will be calling him first for all my electrical needs for my home in the future. Thanks Mario!

Mario was awesome. He arrived on time was friendly yet professional. He fixed a complicated electrical issue that another Electrition caused and that was compounded our handyman. I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric.
Definitely recommend Mario Castillo Electric! Alan arrived on time and with a mask on which is appreciated :) He was so quick and efficient. Also very friendly and professional staff overall. Excellent service!

Prompt and courteous service!!! Dedicated circuit and outlet installation; some difficulty encountered but Sergio and Mario worked to ensure that everything was done properly. I will use this company for future projects.
Had a ceiling fan installed and they came out and got things done quickly, very professional and clean.
I will be contacting them in a few weeks for another ceiling fan install.
If you need any electric work done, I definitely recommend. Thanks guys!
I used them to install two chandeliers for me. They were on time and did a great job. They cleaned up after themselves too. Would definitely recommend them if you need electrical work.

Nothing was mentioned about running a wire under my house as the wire was pre existing however Mario failed to trace it nor did he offer to at an additional cost. As I stated Mario is a man of his word and came and completed a diagnosis and basically said he cannot fix it. I did. I am not an electrician. The wires existed and just needed to be fished up 6 inches and jumped to the existing receptacle. Going underneath a house is not fun but is a service customers will pay for. My suggestion is that Mario offer that service as well as going into the attic. Overall I would recommend Mario for troubleshooting.
Thank you so much! Couldn't be happier. Communication leading up the appointment was great. Arrived on time. Very professional work and service. Finished fast. Amazing cost, no else would even try to match.
Mario was on time, kind and professional, and fixed our problem quickly. Our issue was somewhat minor, three outlets weren't working, but I assume he would do a good job on a bigger job too.

I used this company only because there were amazing reviews on Yelp. However, I was more than disappointed. I wanted an outdoor light fixture replaced with an outdoor plug. I explained this to the lady over the phone, when he came, he installed an indoor outlet. No GFI or cover, just an outlet. When asked about protection from the rain, he said, i don't think you need it I said but this won't pass inspection, he said, no it won't so I just asked him to put the fixture back. He did and he did not charge me. However, the plot thickens, about 20 mins after he leaves, I go to turn on my TV and it doesnt work. I flip the switch to turn the light on and it doesnt work. I call the office number and they tried to get a hold of him twice, no answer, so now I am just waiting for someone to call back...I am beyond disappointed with this company. Not sure why my experience is so bad, but something that he told me would take 30 mins is now taking up my entire morning.
Mario was so great to work with! Our 100 year old house's electrical needed to be completely gutted and redone - an extensive project to say the least. Mario and his team were professional, on time, exceptional with communications and got the job done right. We could not be happier with his service and he is just a nice guy in general! Thanks, Mario!

I highly recommend this company. They communicated with us before, during, and after the job. The technicians arrived on time, work masks, and cheerfully worked a 12-hour day to finish upgrading the electric panel so that our electricity could be turned back on.
Service delivered as advertised, professional and efficient and thorough. Would recommend 100%

I was looking for a reliable electrician to install a new outlet. So, I went to Yelp and struck gold with Mario Castillo Electric!!! Getting an estimate and setting up the appointment was smooth. The communication prior to arrival was great!!! They texted me that the tech, Sergio, was on his way. Sergio arrived on time and was courteous and professional!!! We discussed how we each envisioned the job and agreed on a plan. Sergio did a great job on the install and cleaned up perfectly. We could not have asked for a better company to do this job!!! Definitely will use Mario Castillo Electric for any future jobs!!!!
Overall work done by the team appeared to be acceptable. I'm an engineer, but electrical is well outside my realm of expertise, so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Knocking off 1 star on my rating because communication was difficult. The primary electrician who came out to my home did not speak english, his assistant who translated was a young apprentice just out of highschool. Communicating and understanding the work they were completing was difficult.
Knocking off 1 star due to confusion on what I wanted installed. A new flush mounted panel box was installed instead of a surface mounted. The flush mounted potentially looks nicer but causes me the following problems in the future.
1) Requires opening up stucco wall, or coming up with a unique solution to get any new circuits into the box.
2) The team cut through (2) studs in my wall. At the end of the day, maybe not a big deal, but was unnecessary weakening of existing structure as I wanted a surface mounted box.
3) The team cut through the header at the top of wall to install the new mast. Again, this was a function of the flush mounted vs surface mounted. If surface mounted had been installed they would have only had to cut through plywood/roofing, not the 2x4 that frame the top of wall that supports the roof joists.
4) And now I have to paint my wall because there is a new stucco patch job. And I will have to paint my wall every time after this if the wall is opened up again and re-patched. No way to get the new stucco to look exactly like existing, so at the end of the day I dont know if it will look better than a surface mounted box with exposed conduit.
5) Flush mounted cuts into the wall, now making this area susceptible to water intrusion and cold/hot air leaking. Stucco/concrete cracks, so its a concern. The electrical box has no insulation, so this is now an area where hot/cold will have a lower resistance to pass into our home.
6) Panel was mounted to a stud on one side which is then mounted to the stucco. The stud was a new addition which did not run to the ground. Therefore, the panel is basically being supported by stucco on one side (they were able to attach to a full hight stud on the other side). I'm a licensed structural engineer, so this kind of work hurts my heart. Again, I'm just going to live with it, house isn't going to collapse on me. But...could have been avoided if we had done a surface mounted box instead of flush mounted.
I would consider hiring Mario Castillo again as I believe their electrical work is good, and they want to provide good work, and tried to answer my questions. But I am a bit of a perfectionist and would plan to be more on top of the work before the perform it and cut into my house.
We needed to upgrade our outdated electrical panel and contacted Mario Castillo Electric for the job. Mario's team was fast, professional, and completed the panel upgrade on time.
Great job! I had 2 outdoor outlets 110 volts, 1 electric car charger 220 volts 40 amps, installed new motion sensor light, new garage outdoor light and replaced existing outdoor outlet done in 1 day and very reasonably, fairly price. I had good experience and very fast response from putting out the projects on line, get an estimate and Mario's team came over and get the job done professionally in 4 days. They're trustworthy because I paid them in full and I had to leave for work. I couldn't be more happier and great full with the company and Mario's team. I'll certainly will refer them to my families and friends and definitely will hire them again for my next projects.
Mario did a panel upgrade and addressed many other problems we had with our existing electrical wiring. He and his staff were very professional as well as knowledgeable. The job was performed as promised and we will definitely use him for any future electrical needs. We highly recommend this business.

From the initial contact, it was a pleasure working with Mario Castillo Electric. They got back to me right away and provided a detailed estimate of the work I wanted done. They are consummate professionals. Sergio, the electrician was beyond punctual. A text was sent when he was on the way, and he showed up exactly at the appointment time and followed current Covid precautions. Sergio and his associate could not have been more courteous , professional, friendly and respectful of the property. They performed the job efficiently and in a very timely manner. I have some additional electrical work to be done later this spring and I will not hesitate to use Mario Castillo Electric again. Thanks guys for a job well done !
Very nice employees, fast service, reasonable pricing matching the estimate,
Thank you Mario!!
Mario is a great guy, honest and reliable. He came on time to give us the estimate which was reasonable. He scheduled promptly and got the job done in the time stated. His work was excellent.
We had 3 ceiling fans and a pair of exterior lights put in and moved some switches around.
I would highly recommend him.

Professional, punctual, clean and trustworthy. Mario and his crew finished the job in one day, while adhering to all safety measures. Everything was explained during the install. We truly appreciate their quick response to our almost electrical fire (glad we found it in time), installation of a new panel, checking of all outlets, and the fixture installation. Glad to have found him on Yelp.
On time and did job quickly and informed me of what needs to be done. Price was fair and happy with work performed.

Mario provides great service and replaced most of the electrical outlets at my condo and installed a ceiling fan. He quoted me a very competitive price and was able to come do the work the next day. He was on time and professional and even added a face gfi plate with a switch for a garbage disposal without charging for the switch which I forgot to mention when I got the quote. He even came out when I had accidentally turned off some switches on breaker and he pointed out why the kitchen outlets were not working at no charge at a letter date. I will use and recommend Mario for any of my future electrical needs.
I'd describe them as a professional organization. They were responsive and quick in setting up an appointment to upgrade our breaker panel. They were prompt in showing up, and worked hard until it was done. Two guys came to do the bulk of the work, as well another guy to finish up the drywall. A coordinator came by to make sure everything was going smoothly, and Mario came near completion to double check the work. On top of all that, they were very reasonably priced. Luckily a few days before, a different company flaked on us. They gave us a 2 hour window of when they'd show up, and then called 20 minutes before the end of the window to say they came, and called and texted and we missed our window and would have to reschedule. (We didn't get any call or text, and we were home the whole time.) I think it was just one guy. They were about $100 cheaper than Mario's crew, and I feel like I dodged a major bullet with them no showing. It was definitely refreshing to work with Mario Castillo after that, and we'll definitely use them in the future.
Sergio from Castillo did a great job installing my Ring security system. He was on time, wore a mask, and explained the process as he was installing the device. I would highly recommend Sergio and Castillo electric.

We needed three ceiling fans replaced in our home, so I searched Yelp for reviews on electricians. Mario Castillo Electric responded quickly, gave the best estimate, and kept us informed of the work schedule, and the technician who would perform the work. The two technicians who arrived worked quickly, wore masks, and maintained appropriate social distancing. We would recommend this company for electrical work in the home.
Mario Rocks! We had a very positive experience having him repair our many electrical issues! He charges a fair price and the quality of work is a 10+.... I highly recommend Mario Castillo!!!
Mario Castilo was referred to us to install a 240 volt 30 amp electric vehicle charger. He came over with no estimate fee, (2 other contractors I reached out to wanted $100 just to give me an estimate). Very prompt, professional and has competitive rates.
He went under the house, safely wired the connection with heavier gauge wire that was needed. Then, he wired that connection into the breaker box. He matchet my new EV charger perfectly with a permanent secure mount in the garage. He went on to thoroughly clean up everything when he finished.
Mario definitely over delivered. If you want a no noise, electrical contractor that carries his own liability insurance, bond, workers comp and does a great job, call Mario.
I was not incented to write this review.
Great job! Had him change two outlets and they work wonderfully. He works super fast and is very polite. I would definitely hire him again.
He was quick and professional. Also followed covid guidelines. Definitely recommend!!
Mario showed up on time and did an excellent work. He was fast and professional. I used his services to install a 240V outlet and an EV charger. I will definitely used him again. I asked 7 quotes and Mario was the best price / quality electrician.

Mario's team - Sergio and Leo - were amazing! They were polite and efficient! They came in, completely masked, and began to install the outlets immediately. They used coverings of all kinds to protect the house. After the installation, they made sure to clean up thoroughly and left the area cleaner than they started. Truly an amazing team and company. Will definitely use Mario and his team for all electrical needs in the future!

We recently purchased a single family home in need of some electrical work. I contacted a few electricians for consults and Mario was the first and most professional to respond. He came out the next day, answered all our questions, provided knowledgeable suggestions and a quote on the spot with an email follow up. I was able to agree to the, very reasonable, quote and was contacted the next day to schedule an appointment for the work. From initial contact to completion of work, the entire process was only a week. The team that came out to work on our house were on time, professional, efficient and the quality of work is top notch. Another thing that was very helpful from Mario and his team is their communication. I received emails regarding appointments, quotes, and invoices and texts on confirming all the email information plus notices when Mario or his team were on their way. Highly recommend them and have already passed their info along to friends.

We use these guys locally to install some outlets in our garage area and they were amazing. Got here on time, got the work done promptly, and prices were amazing. Will definitely use these guys again for all of our electrical needs!
Mario is awesome! Very easy to get a quote and set up appointment. Text you when he's on the way and when he's arrived. He even came earlier than the appointment time which was great!! Finished the job quickly. Mario is very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Saved his number for future! Highly recommend!

I needed some motion lights relocated because I was having rain gutters installed the next day. Mario and his brother came after working hours (6pm-8pm) to accommodate my request. They not only relocated my lights but offered to install LED lights, no charge. Mario Castillo Electric is professional, polite, responsive, and trustworthy. Out of all the quotes I got, his was the most fair-priced. I plan on using him for any/all future jobs as well as recommending him to my friends and family.
I needed some electrical work done quickly (all of the outlets in my kitchen went out - including the refrigerator) so I searched Yelp and found a few potentials. I called several (including those that said they were open - but weren't) but the only one I got through to was Mario. He came quickly (even though he was busy that morning) and fixed the problem right away. And since it was a fixed rate, he checked all of the rest of the outlets in the house and replaced one of them. Very nice guy as well. Thumbs up from me.
I hired Mario to do a whole home rewire and panel upgraded. His prices were very competitive. The work took less then 3 weeks and I couldn't have asked for a more professional, hard working, trustworthy crew. They were here every day on time and never gave anything less then max effort. I highly recommend Mario for any electrical work you need done big or small. You won't be disappointed.

Mario and his crew did a wonderful job installing a 240V outlet for our water heater at a fair price. The work looks solid and was completely in just a few hours. He even helped us with another separate outlet issue free of charge.
Mario will now be my go-to for electrical work. He showed up on time with his apprentice, quickly appraised the work that needed to be done and did the work within the time and budget estimated. As a matter of fact, I asked if he could also do a couple of small jobs that needed to be done (installing a couple of GFI's) and he did that as well - still within the budget he originally quoted online. He left the workplace as clean as he found it as well. Great work!
After reviewing other electricians in my area i immediately called Mario to set up a trouble shoot appointment for some issues I was experiencing.
The appointment went well and he was able to locate the problem and gave me a fair estimate on the work I needed. I agreed to having the job done by him and within 2 hours my house was back in order. He also gave me some very good advice for consideration on preventing future problems (that I will call him back for.)
I FOUND HIM TO BE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS. I have already recommended him to a friend.
Mario was very courteous, and most importantly very punctual (he give only a 15 mins time window to show up unlike others give 4 - 5 hours). Mario was even willing to come on a Sunday to give us a free quote for the repair. Highly recommend. Great job!
Mario and his team strive to achieve the positive experience that every customer wishes to have with a business. His pricing is reasonable and the customer service is truly exceptional; from the moment you speak with Flor to schedule your appointment until you meet with Mario, you will be impressed. Flor was very courteous upon answering the phone, and she was attentive and patient as I explained the issues that I was experiencing in my home (electrical outlets and light fixture issue). I normally ask a lot of questions, and she did her best to answer what she could and deferred more complex questions to a tech for appropriate responses. Mario was very professional, he arrived the designated appointment time frame and he provided his business card upon meeting him. Mario took his time to listen to the issues in order to troubleshoot and resolve the issues. My wife and I were very pleased with him and will use him again for future electrical issues. I look forward to referring Mario to my family and friends in need of a licensed electrician.
Extremely profession, on time, by code and just great work. I'm in the midst of permitting an ADU and I'm scheduling Mario for hard wiring and finishing electrical work.

Great service! Checked my old knob and tube to make sure it was dead before I install insulation in my attic. Fixed a faulty outlet. Was fast and friendly and only 75$! Will be calling him again for any future service.
Worked me into the schedule, professional email sent to confirm appointment and included a reminder email as well. Quick efficient diagnosis of my electrical problem. Would use again without hesitation.
If you are looking for a good electrician, who is honest, knowledgeable and dependable then look no further. Mario showed up on time, quickly diagnosed what was wrong and fixed it for a very reasonable fee. Definitely five star performance.
We contracted with Mario to completely rewire a house my daughter recently bought in Long Beach and he and his crew did a fantastic job! The house was built in 1920 and still had some active knob & tube wiring in the attic that was covered with insulation. This was a huge fire hazard so we wanted to get it corrected asap. Mario was able to start the job right away and worked thru several weekends to get it done as quickly as possible. Needless to say it was a big project, but his job planning was done to minimize my daughter's inconvenience and to also minimized the amount of holes that needed to be cut in the walls. At the same time Mario updated the main panel to 200 amps and also installed a 240V outlet to support of an electric car charger in the future. His quote was competitively priced, his communication and response to questions was excellent, and he delivered everything as promised. Definitely an electrical contractor who knows his stuff and who you can trust! Thanks again Mario!

Mario and his apprentice Sergio were very skilled and professional. They completed the install efficiently and to my complete satisfaction. Thank you Mario Castillo Electric, for helping us to keep cool this coming summer
I was very pleased that Mario was able to come to my location, troubleshoot the issue and resolve it quickly. I contacted him through Yelp after regular business hours, and he came back with a quote very quickly. I called his business directly and reached a very professional answering service. Shortly after that, his office called to set up a next-day appointment. One of the most impressive things is that even though the troubleshooting process was not as simple as I expected, and took a few trips to the attic to sort out, Mario stood by his original cost estimate. This is the kind of person and business I like to deal with.
i will recomend mario , he is very nice and his staffs too. very clean and organized . we upgrade our panel and add dedicated lines for our outlets . 100% customer satisfied.

I should have reviewed him a long time ago. Mario is awesome, he was on time, professional and easy to work with. I'm planning to hire him again already. Thanks Mario!
We really appreciated the very quick response. He was able to fix our outlet problem super fast. Thank you so much.
We hired Mario to install some outlets and fix a couple electrical issues we encountered in our new home. He was on time, professional, stuck to his estimate, and went above and beyond to do excellent work.
Mario and his team were awesome! They did the work on a Sunday (!) and were very professional and efficient. His team was great - especially Christian, who helped us problem solve a potentially tricky wall mount for the TV. Mario's prices were reasonable and we would definitely use him again in a heartbeat. He also was familiar with Insteon, which was a big plus.

Mario installed an electrical outlet in our office space and installed the electrical connection to allow us to put up a chandelier. He was very professional and his price was very fair. We are happy with the work that he did and would use him again.
Sent message and got instant response and even came by on a Saturday! Very affordable and efficient. I wanted to try them out and see if they would become my go to electrician going forward and they will be. Thanks a lot

I wanted a new circuit breaker installed so I contacted Castillo Electric for an estimate. Mario seemed capable and provided a very reasonable estimate so I hired him. I have an out-of-date circuit box which provided a challenge, but he completed the job professionally, including crawling under my house to install wiring. Highly recommended!
I contacted Mario Castillo Electric during a holiday week and he came to give us an estimate the very next day. All of the work was completed within 72 hours despite it being Thanksgiving. His pricing was affordable and he did not drive up the price from his original quote. We will be using him again for our other property next week!

Mario and his associate were polite, courteous, professional and extremely knowledgeable. Mario diagnosed and fixed the problem very quickly. My electrical problems were much larger than I originally thought, but not only did Mario not charge me more than the original quote, he also fixed an additional light switch for free. I already have plans for additional work and Mario has given me a quote with the same great rates as the first job. It is such a relief to have someone ethical and reliable to count on for electrical issues and Mario is that person. I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. You will be pleased with the quality of the work and Mario's more-than-fair prices.
