Ms Sparky Electric

She does great work and a good price. You may have to wait a few days because she is so busy, but it's worth it if you can.

Responsive. Easy to schedule - worked with my time constraints.  Perfectly done. Replaced 3 pendant lights in kitchen.  Clean.  Quick. Professional

Very helpful with our Nema outlet! I texted her pictures and she responded quickly and was very knowledgeable. Appreciate the great customer service

Our apartment maintenance managers referred Ms Sparky Electric to us to for an electrical short problem.  She was supposed to call us to set up a time and she never called.  I was able to get the number from out site manager.  I called her 3 times (while I was at work) and left a message to please call back to confirm an appointment time.  No answer and no response.  I finally asked my cousin to follow up for me since I was at work and she was at the apartment.  My cousin finally got a hold of her and was really rude to her on the phone and said she wont be able to send someone out until Weds next week but wouldn't give an appointment time.  After reading some of the reviews, I can relate to the ones about being unprofessional and not returning calls.  Not good for business.  My site manager is referring someone else for the service call instead.

I recently got a Tesla and needed a 14-50 outlet installed, so I got quotes from multiple companies including Ms Sparky, who came in cheapest (and a friend had recommended to me). I emailed with Mary (the owner) directly and coordinated with her. This was a little frustrating because initially she said I needed a 60 amp breaker when it should be 50 as far as I know for a 14-50 outlet-- I pointed this out and she changed it to 50 amp. Her original quote was about $500 off of what the actual cost ended up being too, probably because of quoting just off my pictures. So no biggie on that.

But when the tech came to do the install he was expecting my panel to be right next to where I wanted the outlet and that was not the case. Also the breaker they ordered wasn't the right one. In order to make room they'd need a combination breaker instead. Again, this was frustrating a little because I had sent pictures of my panel to Mary already so I thought they would've seen what needed to be ordered. Tech also said it's a two person job not one, and he'll need another person. He was reluctant at first to run the wiring through attic like I wanted but I finally convinced him the attic is spacious and open enough. He called Mary and got a better quote number and said they'd let me know when they can come back to install.

About five days later got an email back saying they were ready to install again. Got it scheduled and a two person crew came out and took care of it. Ran the wiring and outlet exactly where I wanted it, and everything looked great to me. And my Tesla charges beautifully now. So in the end, I'm happy with the result but getting there felt a little more difficult than it should've been.

I bought a Tesla model Y, and needed to have the Wall Connector charger installed. I called four places, and Mary was the only who got back to me. She came and looked at our garage, and had her employee Kyle come the next day to do the install. Kyle wired up the box and connector, but the Tesla charger unit was defective so I had to order a new one and he had to come back to finish the install. Mary was very communicative throughout the whole process and both she and Kyle were very friendly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing electrical work done!

Best electrician, look no futher. You're in good hands and she knows what she's doing.

Did not receive a response to original requests as well as voice message follow up. Could be a great electrician - guess we'll never know . . .

This team had been top notch throughout the project.  I had a long  220 run for a jacuzzi in the back yard. It's not an easy job. They've done great work in both quoting fairly, and having enough people on hand to get the job done.  Everyone has been great onsite and I'm happy to have them working at my house. The quality of work is high and done cleanly. I'm very satisfied and would highly recommend.

I needed a breaker replaced that controls my ceiling heat.
Zach came out and finished quickly and efficiently.
Great price also!
I recommend this company.

I am absolutely thrilled with the work that was done!  Zach, one of Ms Sparky's electricians was prompt, professional, and meticulous in everything that he did! I highly recommend this business!

Had Ms. Sparky Electric do some home electrical work and all seemed good until she left and then we had some issues with wrong wiring and lights not working anymore. She was a very pleasant person to deal with but I have called her and emailed her and no response.

I hate when contractors do not even bother to respond. Now we have to hire someone else to fix the poor quality work she did. Shame, but would not recommend you use her unless you check her work when done.

We had Mary with Ms. Sparky come out to address and quote us on two things.  1) fix an outside GFI outlet and 2) move some things around in the bathroom for a remodel.   She was nice at first and gave us a quote.  We hired them and she sent out Aldo, whom was nice, knowledgeable and knew the scope of work and did it with no issues.  When he finished the first part, he said he would come back and put the lights up and do the outside GFI. In the meantime, Mary sent us an invoice and asked us to pay the entire thing.  I then asked her twice in 36 hours when they could come back and finish the work and we did not hear anything.  Then thinking maybe if I paid it, she would respond.  Well, she did.  I paid the entire bill (which I regret!) then she finally said she couldn't finish the job until the next week (which was the not the agreement).  She then came out herself to put three bathroom lights up the same week.  She was mad!  She was not nice the entire time. She stomped around, was slamming stuff in the bathroom, then we heard glass breaking and a slough of curse words, sighs, etc.  She dropped the light globe.  She stomped out and said she would get another one.  
After that, she refused to come back and finish the outside job despite us paying for it. She claims it was not on the quote, but the quote states two GFIs and they only did one. She clearly went outside to see the project, Aldo was clear on it and she also states that she will be back over to finish it.  Both her and Aldo clearly understood the outside was in the scope of work!  It was not even about the costs or the timing, but how rude she became rude and she tried saying the scope of work was not on the quote and that we were difficult.  This is not how you treat customers.  
She was very nasty with her tone, she was yelling and the energy she gave off was really bad.  We didn't want her back in our house after that...  I understand these are hard times, but she cannot take her problems out on customers.   We had five other contractors we worked with and all were amazing to work with.   I do not recommend he and think she is lacking ethics.

HI,

I bought Tesla Model - 3 after Mary fixed Wall charger at my home with Excellent job. She did excellent work today.

She visited at my home & evaluated my Existing Eclectic circuit breaker after installed Tesla Wall charger perfectly.

I recommended her for Tesla Authorized Electrician for Wall Charger.

Thanks

Friendly and helpful people. Great communication and super high quality work. I highly recommend Ms. Sparky!

Ms sparky to the rescue. SDGE installed new power line, swapped wires and electrocuted our home. Ms Sparky Electric rearranged their whole schedule and fit us in because, as they said, emergencies involving safety come first. They did what they needed to and will be returning. Thank you for your help and professionalism. A great local company I won't hesitate to call on again.

Recently got an electric vehicle and needed a NEMA 14-50 outlet to be installed. My car manufacturer had a list of electricians recommended to me. I called and spoke to a bunch of them; and did not get a good feeling about them. Then I spoke with Mary over at Ms. Sparky electric and she was very straightforward; made the whole process extremely easy. If you are getting an electric vehicle of any kind and need a 14-50 outlet installed with little to no hassle, give them a call!

Honest, Reasonable, Efficient Electrician

Ms Sparky Electric was referred to me by a friend and I'm very impressed.

The oven element in the stove in a rental in Lake San Marcos caught fire and was frightening (that's how they burn-out), so I replaced the stove. When delivered on a Mon., it was hard-wired (unheard of 2 me) and needed a 240 box installed.  Mary (Ms Sparky owner) had someone out the next day and the job was done in an hour @$125 + a few $$ for the plug.  She services Cardiff and the area and her estimate for hard wiring ceiling fans for me was reasonable also.  760-942-7345

Highly recommend. Ms. Sparky Electric is very reliable. They stand behind their work. We had an issue with one of our outdoor outlets and they assessed and replaced it at a reasonable cost and quickly. The outlet had issues again and they returned to replace it, again, and did so at no charge despite our offer to pay because they stand behind their work. Excellent work and amazing customer service.

We needed 18 new electrical circuits run in a commercial greenhouse building at the San Diego Botanic Gardens in Encinitas.  It needed to be done quickly and for a fixed price.  Ms. Sparky and team handled the whole job from filing permits to final inspection and customer sign off.  They did a great job and were fun to work with.  I highly recommend Ms. Sparky.

Ms.Sparky has been our electrician since June 2018. She is professional and quick to respond by text. We love that she is so dependable. She came out to check on our NEMA outlet after a very large power surge damaged the breaker. She stood by her work and made sure we were taken care of. Terrific customer service and communication. Thank you Ms.Sparky.

Mary showed up at our home. We spent an hour reviewing what had to be done. She left promising to send a detailed estimate - never heard from her again.  Very unprofessional. If she couldn't do, or didn't want to do the job it would've been nice to have been told that. So...waste

I needed some simple electrical work done for installing new appliances in my new condo and she was efficient, knowledgeable, affordable and quick! She is my new go-to for any electrical help I may need. And since I've moved into an older structure, there's plenty. I'm keeping a list. :) Thank u Mary!

Big cheers for Ms. Sparky Electric - Mary and her team are fabulous! I called Mary looking to hire someone to run electric to a new shed on our property. She came out before the shed was built, explained what would be needed, bid the work and returned once the structure was in place for the job. Her crew came on time and handled the entire project professionally and efficiently. I would hire her again for any electrical need without a second thought.

Mary and her team did an amazing job! They hung 4 chandeliers for me. One being really big with a 20' ceiling height and they just did it quickly, and cleaned up after themselves very well too. I would definitely recommend her. She was just a pleasure to work with and I will definitely use again!

On a recommendation from a friend, got a quick bid from Ms Sparky, & a few days later, on time for the appointment, a crew of (2) young guys installed (3) ceiling fans including all assembly & electric runs. Excellent work, at the agreed on price.

Ms.Sparky is absolutely awesome!  She is very responsive, friendly, and knowledgeable.  We used her for an electrical job on our deck and did a great job!  We will use her again.

Great customer service, electrical expertise and fair prices.  We just had our electric panel upgraded and a charger for my electric car, they arrived in time, kept me posted on progress and cleaned up when they were done.  Highly recommend Ms Sparky Electric!

I called Mary when visiting my parents and a circuit was acting up.  She came when she said she would, and suggested a possible fix at 10% the cost of the panel replacement a previous electrician said was probably needed.  She ordered the parts, returned on time, and made the fix  at the promised price.  She got the job done well and was great with my mom and dad.  When Mom and Dad are happy, then I'm happy.

I hired Ms Sparky to do some cans/light replacements and additions.  She was referred by a friend.  Tried calling and emailing and took awhile for her to get back to me.  Showed up early for initial estimate look.  Very pleasant person.  I liked her and was glad to support a woman in a typically man world.  She told me she would email me her bid.  Did not hear from her for several weeks...called her and no response to my message, finally emailed her and she sent bid.  Told her I was good to go and ready to move forward.  Again, took awhile for her to respond to me after several tries on my part.  They did the work.  Her team was awesome...pleasant, professional and they worked well together as a team.  Work was completed in a timely manner once they finally got to the job.  Some additional lights were needed...and again had to wait several times for her to get back to me to schedule the work after several contacts by me.  All work done.  Had trouble with one of the lights they installed...called/emailed numerous times and finally she returned my call.  Sent Jeremy out and he said problem was in the switch plate....and that Mary would get back to me about replacing as they would have to find.  This was about three or more weeks ago.  Have heard nothing from her.  So, just sharing, so you know in this instance her communication and return of calls and emails etc....were poor....and hence frustrating on my part.  Pam

I've been a contractor for over two decades and Ms Sparky is my go to company! Dennis Dean -Property Dean Inc.

I have had the pleasure of hiring Mary and her crew for several commercial projects. Mary (Ms Sparky) has in depth knowledge of her  field, provided excellent service at the price quoted.. I can confidently give her a 5 star review and recommend that she be on your list of honest ,reliable trade and service people!  as Mary Likes to Say
hire the right women for the job...  Thanks Ms Sparky

Was referred by a neighbor when I needed some electrical work done on a new house. Ms Sparky was incredible! She rewired a microwave, installed a celing fan to replace some can lights that I hated, and tracked down and fixed outlets that didn't work. Her prices were very reasonable and I'm convinced no electrical problem is too difficult for her, so I didn't hesitate to call her back when I needed to upgrade the main electrical panel. Plus, she's super nice! I highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Ms Sparky (Mary) for any electrical work you might come across in your home. I have used her services on several occasions and it has been a pleasure to have her complete the jobs to my satisfaction each time, and with very good communication along the way.  My first job for her was a NEMA 14-50 outlet for my then new electric car, and she has since done two more installations like that as I have moved around here in Carlsbad... Mary has also installed/replaced a new electric house panel, upgrading a 100 amp service panel to a 200 amp ditto to accommodate installation of solar panels on my home. I have nothing but praise for her work and communication on the jobs she has done for me.

Mary is Awesome!   I had tried to be handy and save some money by installing a dish washer myself.  Well needless to say before I set the house on fire I called Mary.  Mary is knowledgeable, professional, on time and cleans up when done.  She saved me from probably causing more damage then good.  We have already called her back to do lighting in our living room.   If you want it done right the first time and every time call Mary.  You will not be disappointed.

Ms Sparky is the best. Competent, efficient, thorough and creative. We hired Ms Sparky to fix a very troubled electrical system in an old house - this included (among other things) upgrading the main service and panel, redistributing loads from overburdened circuits, and troubleshooting all the outlets in the house and the scary garage.  Everything is beautiful now. We had other construction crews working at the same time and Ms Sparky organized the electrical work around the other crews seamlessly. Our contractor called on Ms Sparky to work on another project of theirs and we will definitely call Ms Sparky again on future projects of ours too.

Ms sparky , aka Mary . Has helped me with 2 remodels and both times I was impressed with both her attention to detail and my needs on the job . They where always there when they said and always made sure I understud the scope of the work to be done . I highly recommend her and her company for any work you may need them to do.

Ms Sparky ROCKS! She is downright awesome, excellent service, prompt and is definitely the right person for the job! I have no problem using her on my projects and referring her is an easy one! AND she's fully licensed, completes the work at the price quoted and is definitely my 'go to' person for everything electric!

Mary Rocks!

So far she has helped me at my house, then she ran some line and hung panels at my Dads, then we brought her to my office to hang some lighting in the ceiling, after that I had NO problem introducing her to clients with commercial needs.
Not only is she professional and CLEAN, but i appreciate the fact that she keeps all her licenses and insurance in order. Very very professional.

As a general contractor I need  sub-contractors that are positive, competent and reliable. Ms. Sparky is all this and more. She is my go-to electrician. Do not hesitate to give her a try - you won't be disappointed.

I needed a EVSE installed for my Nissan Leaf.  Ms Sparky quickly returned my call, visited my home and provided an estimate.  The install went smoothly, and I am very happy with the results.  I will use Ms Sparky for any future electrical work at my home!

I hired Ms. Sparky (aka Mary) for my kitchen remodel this spring to wire and install recessed lighting in my kitchen, living room and family room and to run a dedicated circuit to my fridge and mircowave.

My condo was a challenge because of high ceilings and 4 stories from the circuit box to the desired lighting fixtures, not to mention the dedicated circuit up 4 floors. There wasn't a lot to work with given the home was 40 years old and nothing was wired for modern appliances...like a microwave!  If the TV, microwave and fridge were all on, the whole circuit would shut down. Not a light in my home, with the exception of the bathrooms, was on anything but a lamp. And after years of mutliple owners, and many half-baked electricians, I was left with lots of strange wiring going in every direction...and many spiderwebs.  

Mary was a consumate professional - not only does she do excellent work, she also has an eye for design and placement. Best of all, she cleans up really well, everyday! This was a major contrast to the kitchen remodel contractors I hired who left my place a mess even when the job was finished!! She knew the electical code, what I needed to bring my place up to code, and was able to execute accordingly while still making it look great.

One quick story to tel you about Mary, her character and why I would recommend her to anyone (in addition to the above):
The day the contractor opened my kitchen wall, he discovered an electical mess - several open wires, high fire hazards, that is wires sitting inside the walls covered up by drywall. I didn't hire Mary to do this as I wasn't aware of it. Mary happened to be at my place that day doing her reccesed lighting work. She immediately saw the problem and untangled the web, put a plug on it. All in all, she spent a half day bringing my house up to code, and really making it a safe place to live. Mary never even called to tell me she did this, she just did it!! The only reason I can tell you this story now is because the contractor called me to tell me hey your electrican just saved your house...I wouldn't have done that without being paid first, way too much work. So, I called Mary to thank her and insisted on paying her for the work. After strongly insisting, she agreed to be paid. The way Mary works is she draws up her deliverables and charges based on what she will deliver. Her prices were the same as the other electricians I had bid out the project, but the value she brought was much greater...so really, she was less expensive. She was always on time, prepared and eager to get started.

When I do my bathrooms, Ms. Sparky has the job.

Ms. Sparky is awesome! She was executed my electrical needs in no time. Very fair in her pricing and such a pleasure to work with. I will definitely hire her for future needs. I highly recommend Ms. Sparky.
