Ron is absolutely wonderful. Professional, reliable, and expert electrician who is very personable and will take the time to explain. Best of all, he works evening hours which is convenient when you work during the day.
Ron stayed for several hours to diagnose a tricky electrical issue we had. Along the way he shared with us more information about our house wiring than we expected. It was a fun, forensic history lesson about the house. He even sent pictures with suggestions and watch outs for us.
He is not out to make a quick buck and cares about solving your problem, even if you don't end up needing him. Very honest and he was pleasant to have around. And he fixed our issue! We are very happy and will call him first for any electrical need.
Ron just did an excellent job troubleshooting and fixing our GFCI outlets in the kitchen and non-function outlets in a bedroom. He made sure wherever he touched was in proper order. He explained clearly the issue and what he did. Very pleasant to work with and highly recommended!
Found Ron in NextDoor (sorry Yelp!) and he was as advertised: Quick, knowledgeable, efficient, and lovely to deal with. Will definitely use him again when the need arises (which hopefully won't be for a while).
Gut instincts prevail!
As a first time homebuyer, it was daunting to begin the search for an electrician. Knowing that I was looking for someone and not a company or conglomerate was my priority. Scrolling through Yelp, I found Ron and after contacting him I knew I made the right decision. When we spoke on the phone, I explained my needs and he was able to not only understand my poor descriptions of the work that needed to be done but also give me the insight to understand what I was up against. I was able to schedule him in a day later and he went to work! Installing a GFCI breaker, fixing a loose recessed lighting socket, replacing a light fixture, fixing light switch wiring, and the list goes on. He took his time and explained his work along the way.
Ron checks all of the boxes for being a well-qualified electrician. Not to mention, he was extremely pleasant and professional. I appreciate not only his work but his attitude towards it as well.
Thanks for everything, Ron!
Ron was awesome! We are first time home owners and there are so many janky outlets and electrical issues with our home. We previously used an electric company that was overpriced, hard to book, not customer friendly, and a revolving door of random people. When our outlet burnt out, we texted Ron and not only did he come same day, he was responsive, personable and answered a ton of questions. Extremely reasonably priced. We'll be calling him for all our future jobs!
Ron is an expert at what he does and happy to walk you through the ins and outs of the best way to diagnose and solve your electrical issues. Our house was built in the 50's and has probably been worked on by a number of electricians, but as long as we're here Ron will be our first call .
Ron was EXCELLENT and a real pleasure to deal with! He handled everything we needed to be done in a timely manner. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Ron is absolutely fantastic and he's the only electrician I will ever choose to work with. Great demeanor, work ethic and does the job very well. I had written a review prior stating how amazing he is PRIOR to any work. He has completed the job for me and I'm very happy. He did it quickly, prices were fair, and delivered efficiently. If you want someone who has more than 35+ experience in this specialty, then really, look no further. Thank you, Ron. You're the man! I'm already looking forward to collaborating with Ron on additional projects in the near future.
This review is long overdue, but we contacted a few electricians about our smoke detectors around November of last year. Ron was by far the most communicative and clear, and luck would have it happened to be available soonest. So glad that was the case, because he was professional, pleasant, and knew his stuff. He even explained to me what he was doing as he was installing the new smoke detectors so in the future if I wanted to do it myself I could.
In the future if I ever need electrical work I'm not even bothering looking anyone else up, I have this guy's number saved. Thanks a lot Ron!!

I walk into the theater room and the entire room seems to be out of commission.
I walk into the connected bathroom and the lights aren't working there either.
I try manually to turn on any of the devices but to no success they are all not showing a pulse.
I knew at that point I needed to call someone.
So I searched high and low, where I came across Ron's Electronics.
We spoke as he helped me assess the situation but it was during the holidays. So because he wasn't in the local area at the moment he did the next best thing to recommend another trusty friend to help me get the job done. I mean how can you go one more day without the theater room working when you have 3 rambuntious kids running around in the house?
In the end, I got my lights put back on in the room and I couldn't be more grateful for Ron's sincere and genuine way to help me fix my power outage.
I've now had Ron over for a number of electrical projects. He is super knowledgable, easy to communicate with, and super efficient. He's installed ring lights, new light switches, new light fixtures and more. Ron is my go to for electrical work and I'm glad I uncovered him here on Yelp.

Ron is the best electrician I have ever worked with. He's extremely knowledgable, polite, thorough and honest. I'll work with Ron every time I need something done!

Ron is the best! We replaced a dishwasher in one of our units, and the thing was so old it was hard-wired into the building. Ron came out and saved the day by re-wiring a new pronged plug into the new dishwasher and installing a new four-receptacle outlet for the dishwasher to plug in to (we needed four as one side was for disposal and had to be wired to a switch).
Ron made the whole experience easy and positive. Great personality, incredible knowledge. Thanks Ron!!
Ron was awesome!
I had an outage and called Ron.
First, Ron was so nice over the phone. He asked me about my issue and then took the time to explain, clearly, the possible causes and solutions. This conversation certainly made me confident enough to ask Ron to come over and help.
Second, Ron came same day. I couldn't believe it. We texted (he gave me his cell), and he confirmed in a timely manner. Ron showed up on time, too.
Re Service: I couldn't have asked for more. Not only did Ron jump right in, he was really attentive to not damage anything as he got started. He also took the time to explain what he was doing and why when I asked for explanations. Sometimes repairmen won't explain, but by educating me I think Ron made me a better customer, too. Ron had all of the equipment to do the job, including replacement parts. Everything he touched was put back in a nice clean fashion.
Re Extra Touch: Ron also saw some other red flags with my outlets and asked me if i wanted him to work on those as well. He made some really small, but big convenience and safety changes I had been putting off for a long time. He assured me he could do the fixes fast, and he did.
I will use Ron again, and I highly recommend him.

Had a great experience with Ron today. He installed a chandelier in a room that originally had been a formal living space. He was meticulous when it came to getting the chandelier hung level even though our older home is anything but plumb. Project took a little longer than expected but the results were well worth it. He was super friendly and didn't mind a crazy household with a toddler and puppy running around. Highly recommend and will be using him for future upgrades!
Fantastic service, on time and extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Took the time to explain the issues as well as demonstrated the problem and solution. Even looked at other outlets around the house as advised me on my smoke detectors. Well worth it. Would use again for sure.

This review is for customer service and sheer professionalism! I have three internal projects, one involving a 1960's chandelier, and was looking for a ballpark estimate and someone who could do the gig fairly quickly. Ron was up front in that he was busy for the next couple of weeks but was happy to listen to my projects and give me some great insight into what the job would entail, how long it could and should take, where to take my chandelier to get it fixed for installation and finally a referral to someone he trusts.
In contrast, I'd just gotten off the phone to the number 2 recommended electrician from Angie's List who couldn't have been more of an arrogant tool if he tried!
Thanks Ron - I appreciated your time and expertise!
We had an electrical issue at home and first thing I did was searched for an electrician locally here on Yelp! Ron had the best review by far so I gave him a call! It was a Sunday and just like what someone said here he did answer his phone and he tried to helped us out by talking us through the things we need to look at. Next thing you know he came by even though it was late and tried to see what was wrong!
Everything that people said about him was so true! He was very kind, honest and very knowledgeable in what he does! He took the time to explain to us what happened and what he has to do to rectify it. He didn't rush things and made sure he does it right.
So anyone out there who needs some help with electrical issue give Ron a call! I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Ron thanks for all your help! We will be reaching out to you again for the other things we need to get done!

Ron did some troubleshooting for me yesterday and fixed EVERY SINGLE THING I needed. He also explained everything that was wrong and what I need to do going forward. He was patient, knowledgeable, and enjoyable. 2 of those things I hoped for, the enjoyable part was an unexpected bonus.
Above and beyond---he answered the phone after hours when I thought I'd be leaving a message.
This is the type of person you just don't find anymore.
Lifesaver. Responded to my late-evening call about a bad circuit breaker that left me without the use of my refrigerator. Came right over, explained the situation clearly, and went to work. Fixed it within the first hour at a reasonable rate. I plan to hire him again!!
I had Ron install a new switch last week. Great and professional guy! I'd recommend him for sure.

Excellent!!! Within a minute of me showing Ron the problem, he fixed it. Then, I asked about putting in a 240 volt circuit and he was able to trace some existing wires to do it through our main panel. This is in a house that is 75 years old. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.

There are so many super-positive reviews about Ron Mulvey here on Yelp, it's hard to say anything fresh and new that's not been said before. So I'll keep it short and simple.
If you like, even love, your home. And if you need electrical work done properly - not just to code but truly professionally. And furthermore, if you value working with someone who really takes time to talk with you, think with you, give you advice, figure out the best solution, and not pressure you in any way, Ron's your guy.
Look no further. Just give him a call and get on with the fix or upgrade.
Ron, thanks again!
Based on his reviews both here on Yelp and elsewhere, I hired Ron Mulvey to fix a confounding problem I was having with my video doorbell system, and boy am I glad I did! Before he actually came to my house to troubleshoot and ultimately fix the problem he provided me with extensive phone and text message consultations at no charge. Once here he went way above and beyond what you would typically expect vis-a-vis an electrician's services, and he charged me a more than fair price. He was beyond personable and his expertise was clearly evident. I've already recommended Ron to both a neighbor and to a close friend, and you can bet that the next time I need an electrician he's the pro I will call.

AMAZING!!!!! I am shocked. This guy is a total sweetheart. He spent 20 minutes with me on the phone and i'm NOT even a customer. He saved me hundreds in costs and cutting up my wall with an extensive electrical job!
Ron is unbelievably friendly and keeps you well informed with options along the way of all installs/service needs. Will not hesitate to call/text any time anything comes up. Thanks, Ron!

Ron is excellent. Comes to the appointment on time. Is thorough and professional. And boy does he know his stuff regarding older, circa 1970s buildings. He's my go to electrician.
I must give Ron a 5 star review for taking time out of his busy day to talk to me to help me resolve a problem that another electrician could not! What a generous, lovely man who clearly knows his stuff backwards and forwards. I thank him for helping me without worrying whether there was any benefit to him. You can be sure I will be calling him on my next project.
Ron is a gem. He quickly located and corrected the problem in my Woodland Hills home for a great price. Super nice guy who loves what he does. The best electrician I've ever dealt with, and in fact one of the best contractors of any kind I've ever met. No surprise that he has 100% positive reviews (which is why I chose him).
Here is the thing, Ron is incredible.
I called him up for an estimate, left a voicemail and was called back extremely quickly.
Not only was he cordial and friendly but he jumped on explaining the situation I had at hand and pointed out some things that I would not have even thought of on a level that really made since to me.
Having worked at an electrical company in the past I can tell you his friendly demeanor and warm willingness to take the time and talk things out is extremely rare.
Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined having a lengthy conversation about secondary meter installation that would be so engaging, educational, and frankly really fun.
Even though the work we needed to have done was outside of his scope he was quick to provide a reference to another trusted colleague. He is a man who clearly cares about providing quality service backed with genuine trust.
I will be recommending Ron whenever I get the chance!
Sadly I was unable to work with him on my job, but he promptly answered my call, suggested a place that could do the work I needed, gave me some really good information to keep in mind! Sounded like such a really nice guy who knows his work, so 5 stars just based on communication! Do not hesitate to call him up! :)
What electrician answers the phone on a Friday at 4:30 pm like it's an old friend? I mean, the only reason I'm stepping away to make calls at that point of the week/day is cause I'm slacking...
What electrician answers the phone on a Friday at 4:30 pm and gives you advice for 10 minutes even though the first question established he didn't do work in my area?
You can tell he knows his stuff and loves what he does. Give him a call, even if he doesn't service your area, he's got a few friends that will.
Ron showed up on time and quickly repaired the light fixtures in two of my apartments. I've known Ron for over 20 years - he has always been competent and fairly priced. I'd recommend him to anyone in need of a good electrician.

Hire Ron! He came out next day, was able to diagnose and address our issue with our circuit breaker, replace a cheap builder's outlet, and replace a chandelier in just a couple of hours. And to top it off, he's as friendly as can be. Total professional and highly recommend!
Ron and I knew each other in junior high school and I rediscovered him as an electrician only a few months ago. He did an outstanding job on some remedial work needed at my 1950s-era house in Burbank. I'm pleased to give Ron my highest recommendation.
Will never use anyone else going forward! So nice. So thorough. So patient around a tough job in a cramped space. And super helpful about what he was doing and why. A truly great experience and I can't give him enough stars!!!
What a great guy!! He took the time to explain to me in detail the proper process of upgrading my electrical panel. He is positively an honest person to help you with your concerns.

I was incredibly impressed by Ron's professionalism and helpfulness - he talked to me for several minutes about my project and, even though he wasn't able to do it himself, he gave me great insight on what my next steps should be. Two thumbs up!
It's been two years since the first great experience...Today, my folks had seven outlets replaced...Same exceptional service! Thanks Ron!
Great service and a really cool guy! Very helpful explaining things i didn't understand and solved my electric issue very quickly.
I called Ron on a Monday (when he's closed) and he picked up the phone immediately. I proceeded to tell him my situation (FD said I need more outlets at my place of business) and even though it was something he didn't do (he referred me to another electrician with more recent commercial experience) he still talked to me for 8 minutes. He gave me lots of helpful information about my situation and what I should do next.
Even though he didn't solve my electrical problem in this case, he definitely helped me out big time and I can't thank him enough for being so kind and considerate about my situation on the phone (especially on his day off).
Well done Ron! I won't hesitate to call you again when I need a residential electrical issue resolved. Keep up the excellent customer service!
This man is amazing. We had a outlet in our kitchen that was not working. This outlet impacted much of our ability to use our kitchen and with 3 kids, our kitchen is an active part of our home. I called Ron yesterday around 5:30 pm and he was at our house by 8. He stayed for 2+ plus hours, took apart and put back together many neighboring outlets that may have caused the problem and when he could not find an above ground solution, went underneath the house into the crawlspace. While in the crawlspace, he found the problem and fixed it. Awesome job.
Prompt, thorough, helpful both in being able to diagnose and fix the problem and explain it as he goes. Good energy, great attitude, fair prices. Highly recommend!
Ron is the most amazing and dedicated electrician you will ever find. He goes overboard to do the best job possible for his clients. He gives good advice on your proposed project and will not take shortcuts when it comes to code. I wholeheartedly recommend him. My only drawback when dealing with Ron is that he is SO popular that he is sometimes impossible to contact and schedule. I was even reluctant to write this review because I know you will want to call him too and he is already way overbooked! :) But, it's only fair that others get to experience the expertise of this amazing person.
Ron is such a pleasure to work with! He's courteous, extremely knowledgeable and cares.
First of all, he was the only electrician to actually return my initial phone call and then actually show up to check out the electrical system. Our house uses an old electrical system that most houses stopped using after the 70's...the dreaded relay switch system. Prior to meeting Ron, I had no idea what that meant...but he took the time to explain it all to me and show me how this particular system works. Knowledge is power and he helped to empower me! Ron knows EVERYTHING about this system. (It's one of the reasons I think electricians would fall off the grid after telling them we have a low-voltage system...not many electricians have experience with this.)
Since then, he has been and continues to be our go-to electrician and someone we can trust with any electrical needs. Highly recommend him!!
Ron is the absolute best! He was so thorough and gave my husband and I lots of tips so that we can avoid having issues with our lights in the future. He is a truly kind person and it was enjoyable having him work in our home. Will absolutely hire again in the future!
Hey Ron,
I located Mulvey Electric on Yelp and decided to contact you due to all of the positive reviews. I called you and the message said that you are too busy to take on any new customers. I think you should remove your business from Yelp if this is the case.
Ron is EXCELLENT. Before I called an electrician for a client of mine, I went to Yelp. I noticed his rave reviews and well.....I get it. He is professional, friendly, generous with providing information and super knowledgeable with the trade. You will feel totally comfortable having him in your home/space and totally confident in the work he will do. My client had around 10 wall switch dimmers installed, a fan control and an on/off remote added to the fireplace. Highly recommended and ....will. use. him. again.
Awesome customer service! He cares about getting things done right. It's not just another job. Highly recommend Ron.

So we bought a condo and the electrical panel needed updating, so the sellers just gave us a credit to fix. I perused Crapslist and found someone to claim he was an electrician. I won't name names, but Pan was a disaster. After taking 2 days and not being able to connect 4 MYSTERY wires, he sloppily put the panel together.....then we asked him to install a 3 way switch and after an hour of trying, his excuse was there are a million different ways this could be wired and he failed to get the switches working. To his credit, he didn't charge us for the time it took him to fail.
So I looked at Crapslist again and got lucky and found Ron to handle the 3 way switch. Ummmm, in about 10 minutes, all switches were working. I had him install some ceiling lights (him being 6'4 makes this easy). Price was reasonable and all is working. He makes it in my speed dial.
Well 2 years later, on an unusually cold evening, we learn what those MYSTERY wires were for: our radiant heat! Brrrrrrrr. Called Ron, and Bam, after some sawing, digging, and exploring, wires were wired and rewired and we have heat.
Good guy with patience and is pleasant. Knows his juice.

Ron came late at night after a long day and on short notice to help us fix our waterheater electrical set up. He was extraordinarily informed, capable, kind/friendly and even reasonably priced. Single best experience with an electrician we've ever had and he is the only one we will call from now on. HIGHLY recommended.

This is the first time I've ever been inclined to write a Yelp review, but I am doing so because Ron's service and talent is of the special sort that warrants my taking the extra time and care, just like Ron takes special time and care for his customers.
Ron has been out twice over the past month or so to install a bunch of fixtures and switches in my new home. Some re-wiring was required for what I wanted, and Ron did it all with aplomb. Not only is he extremely friendly and knowledgeable, but he also always goes the extra mile to educate and advise. In addition, he is extremely communicative pre- and post-visit, and takes the time to answer questions via email, in detail, without asking for a penny. It is evident that Ron cares deeply about his customers, and from the moment I met him I was completely comfortable having him in my home. I truly believe that he is as honest as they come, and that he would never try to nickel and dime me on anything, which is extremely refreshing.
Add all those wonderful attributes to his reasonable fee structure, and I have no doubt that you will feel as I do that Ron Mulvey is the only electrician you will ever need.
Thank you, Ron!
Just called since the reviews were so fantastic. Sadly I was told Ron wasn't taking on any new clients right now. Darn! I'll just give him 5 stars anyway since everyone else was so pleased.
This is the second time that I call Ron to do electrical work in my home. He is licensed, gets there on time, knows what he is doing, and an all around nice person.
This last time, I needed a 220V outlet for my espresso machine. But before he got around to doing that, I had a problem with a fireplace that was supposed to work with an electric switch. I'm pretty handy, but I gave up after spending several hours trying to find out what the heck was wrong with it.
Ron took his multitester and started checking output from different wires. In about 15 minutes, he discovered that the fireplace has some safety features that prevent it from lighting if the damper is open, and also, one of the wires to the transformer was disconnected.
Now my fireplace is working and I have a warm feeling.
His fees are really reasonable.
I found Ron through Yelp and was impressed by all of the glowing reviews. I figured if he was even close to as good as everyone was saying, he'd be great! I called at the very last minute on a holiday eve morning and needed something done before 5pm. Ron asked all the right questions, had me send a couple of pictures so he could understand the scope of the job, promised he would get back to me within 30 minutes with an answer on whether he could make it. He confirmed that he could, sent me updates on when he would arrive, showed up on time, did the job quickly and cleanly and charged a fair price (which he had quoted me ahead of time). Like so many others have said in their reviews, I, too, will be using him again for any future electrical needs. I truly can't say enough good things about the experience.
My experience with Ron is on par with Jennifer N's. I was so excited to write him a good review as soon as he left.
We had a mystery circuit in our home that stumped my contractor brother and father (they spent at least 6 hours trying to figure it out). It took Ron about 30 or so minutes to identify the problem and come up with a solution. He also fixed two dead outlets.
Knowing that my wife and I are recent first-time homeowners, he pointed out services that I wanted that would have been too costly to us. He also showed me how to install a bathroom ceiling fan myself, to save us additional money.
His rates are more than reasonable, and was very generous with his billing. He was even able to identify some inadequacies of the plumbers doing work at the same time!
He is the first and only electrician we'll ever use.
As good as it gets. I own three homes and done a LOT of reno. Ron's the man.
Thorough pro, very clean, punctual, does what he says he'll do and a very fair price.
I wish all of the trades performed this competently.
If you're nice he'll even do a voice over for you! But thats another yelp...

Ron is a great ELECTRICIAN. He's thorough, knowledgeable, and honest. His prices are more than reasonable, and by far the lowest we've been quoted compared to other electricians.
Without a doubt, I'd recommend Ron and will be a returning customer for future jobs.
Ron was awesome! easy to work with very good at communicating and very fair. Would recommend him in a heartbeat to other friends and family
Ron is a great electrician. He is excellent at the work - super knowledgeable & skillful - and he's just a nice guy with a fantastic personality. He fixed a few issues that we were having around the house and also took the time to answer additional questions that I had about adding sockets to other areas in the house. He's very fair and reasonable with payment too. Thank you, Ron!
Don't even bother calling anyone else if you're in Ron's service area. Super competent and nice guy.
I have not been able to find an electrician in the 10 years I have lived in this area, and finally found Ron through yelp. He was great and he will now be my go to guy for electrical matters - friendly, professional, helpful, prompt, neat, and not constantly trying to upsell! He quickly identified and fixed the problem -- a ceiling light that was causing the entire line to short circuit, tripping the breaker switch. His prices are reasonable, and he works evenings to accommodate customers. Thank you, Ron!
He's as good as it gets. Hands down.
If you are looking for a professional who is incredibly skillful with a friendly demeanor and a kind heart, select Ron for your next electrical challenge. He rewired and hung an old chandelier - turning my Dad's I'll get to it someday five year nightmare into something that was done within a few short hours.
The price is more than fair for what you get with Ron. I'm so happy for Yelp reviews and so happy that Ron was the first - and ONLY - person I called.

Contacted Ron from Yelp and everything that is written about him is true. I needed someone to come by and address an electrical issue that came up during a home inspection and he was great! Prompt, Professional and completed the task at a reasonable price while always taking the time to explain everything clearly and concisely. I am a def fan and plan to call him again when the need arises.
Decided to use Ron based on Yelp reviews. He's knowledge, timing, ethical and professional. He replaced an outlet and the main breaker switch, and due to factory default on the GFCI, he came out again to warranty the work. He's not cheap but when it comes to electrical work and safety, it pays to have peace of mind. Thanks Ron.
Amazing, hands down one of the best electrician and person i have ever dealt with. Basically long story short, i woke up to no power in my room. Echo show was down, Tv, phones didnt charge etc. Initially thought it was one outlet that had an issue but soon realized it was the whole room. Other rooms on the other hand was working just fine. Went down to the breaker and resetted, nothing. Browse through yelp and decided to give Ron a call since his reviews were great. He answered and was nice enough to schedule me today even though i wasn't on his service area, i truly appreciated that. He asked me to take pictures of the breaker so he can double check if he has them in his truck, so that he would be able to fix it when he gets here. Few minutes later, he politely called me and walked through the issue with me and guided me to fix it. No upsell, no ridiculous stuff, nothing. He was honest and did not even want to charge me. He even took the time to explain the breakers and what type i had (which again i truly appreciate, it's hard to find people like Ron, who would take the time to just explain nowadays, especially in the service business). It is unfortunate that i am not in his service area so he mentioned he can't be my regular electrician, however, after today's experience, i will always give Ron my business first without a doubt. Ron is good people, thank you again sir, truly appreicated the assist.
I can't help but think it might be strange to review someone you've never met in person or have had any work done by but twice in recent months did I reach out to Ron with inquiries about some work I was interested in and although things never came together for me to do these projects, I was taken back by the amount of time and information Ron offered me on the telephone. He's obviously among that rare breed of people that make customer communication and relationships an important part of his way of doing business. I hope to come up with something for him to do for us in our home one of these days. You have to talk to Ron if you're in need of electrical services.
First time using Ron and it was a wonderful experience. He was easy to communicate with, tried to find the easy and less expensive options first, and was totally honest! A real find!!
I called Ron when all of the outlets stopped working in the front of the house. I had already flipped the breakers, etc. and could not figure out what to do next. When I called Ron to make an appointment, he walked me through a few things that I could try before he came out and charged me a service fee, etc. After discussing with him for about 10 minutes, he was able to guide me how to fix the problem without a service call. I saved time and money - and Ron did it all for free. Whenever I have any issues in the future, I will call Ron without hesitation and would recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and competent electrician.

When selling my condo, I had to have a hard-wired carbon monoxide detector installed before I could hand over the keys. I did not want to electrocute myself, so I called Ron. He came the SAME DAY and had that thing installed in less than 10 minutes. He was fast, courteous, and explained what he was doing. He has very reasonable rates, too. I will definitely call him again.

People who come to Yelp reviews for an electrician want to find out three things basically : How competent he is professionally, how trustworthy he is, and how reasonable his price is. Ron gets five stars on all counts. Whole section of my room lost power one night. It turned out to be caused by a faulty switch. It was difficult problem to isolate due to the faulty wiring done to the circuit when I had the kitchen remodeled. Less person than Ron probably couldn't have fixed it. I watched him work throughout and found him professional to the last screw. He told me his rate upfront when I called him, and his charge was very reasonable when the job was done.
I will continue to use this company for any future electrical needs. Trustworthy, reliable and professional. Thank you Ron !!

Ron was great! I needed to fix a handful of electrical issues that came up during our inspection. Ron was very communicative, informative and trustworthy. His price was more than reasonable and he did a wonderful job!
I'm definitely going to call Ron for any of my electrical needs. Thanks Ron!
Smart - responds quickly - efficient - gets work done - makes sure it is done right - does not waste time - reasonably priced. That is what I wanted.
I had called Ron for changing out a faulty breaker. I just needed the breaker to do the job myself and he was able to point me in the right direction and even offered to help me get in touch with the right people to get what I needed. The general hardware stores didn't have what I needed. Since nearly all the electrical supply stores are closed on the weekends by me, I was able to get what I needed from a store that Ron put me in touch with. He's a genuine guy and very helpful.
Today was the second time we've used Ron. He is quite helpful and suggested I email a photo of the electrical box I needed help with. That photo allowed him to understand exactly what was needed in the way of parts and he was able to complete the job quickly and effeciently!! Even got a recommendation on a good Indian restaurant!! He will definitely get future business from us.
I called Ron to install 2 light fixtures, based on the awesome Yelp reviews. I have to say - the reviews are true. He's a great guy and did a super job, for a reasonable price. One of the fixtures was missing important parts, but Ron made it work, and it looks terrific. I'll be sure to call him for future electrical jobs.

Ron's a pro. That's the reason he keeps so busy! I've had him come home to fix a couple things around the house and I highly recommend him. He cuts no corners and gets things done the right way.
I never had a chance to actually get any work done by Ron but this review is for his customer service before hand...
I called him at 10am and his measage said give me a text or leave me a message. I sent him a text letting him know the issue we were having (85 year old man tried to install a new timer on the front porch which in turn blew half the power to the house) So anyway, Ron texted me back IMMEDIATELY! My brother called me and walked me through the fix in the meantime but either way Rons speedy return text mixed with his positive attitude after letting him know my brother helped me fix it was enough for me to know this is the guy I will be using in the future if I have anymore electrical needs!
Later on in the day he texted me again to make sure the fix I did was working properly... I feel like he went above and beyond what was needed and I hadn't even paid the man!
Thank you again, you've restored my faith in humanity just a little bit today! Lol

RON ROCKS.
We had to call an electrician on a Sunday a few months ago and he was able to squeeze us into his schedule. Thank God, because he found a problem that had been festering for a mere 25 YEARS in our electric box.
The best part about his service was he took the time to explain the problem to my wife (love that lady, but she's not about the wrench at all) and was able to break it down into two options for us:
The get-us-up-and-running-quickly fix and
The you-need-to-seriously-replace-all-of-this-longterm fix.
We went with the temporary solution and he told us it would last probably only a few weeks, giving us just enough time to knock off a liquor store to pay for the permanent solution.
I'm happy to report that it's been a few months and we have had plenty of time to avoid armed robbery by just setting a few bucks aside every week, knowing that Ron's prophecy would soon come to pass. The problem is now showing every sign of returning (just as he called it) and I couldn't be happier calling him today to start planning on doing the big job.
Well, other than not having to call him, anyway. No offense, Ron.
You've found your electrician. Now get working on finding us a freaking import mechanic in the West Valley and feel free to message me when you do!

Called Ron to get an estimate to have 3 outlets replaced in my apt (The apt management company uses morons for maintenance). Ron explained to me that he would not be comfortable taking on the job since their was already a maintenance company but he did explain what needed to be done under the new code passed a couple of years ago. Even though he was not making any money by helping me, he did advise about what needs to be done for the job to be done correctly. He also told me what the cost of the materials should run about how long it normally takes to do the job barring any problems. It is hard to find a tradesman like this nowadays. Many will not give free advice because there is nothing in it for them. If anyone ever asks me for a good electrician I will recommend they call Ron. To be fair I can not rate his work but in my experience when you get this kind of service, the work is usually of the same caliber. Now I need to call the Apt management company and see if they will send a licensed electrician if I offer to pay (and not one that will gouge me or they mark up the bill).
Ron Mulvey did an EXCELLENT job troubleshooting problems with our outdoor lighting. He has over 20 years of experience in residential and commercial electrical work. He showed up on time. He stayed with the job until it was done. He started his days close to noon, but worked far into the darkness with a headlamp each day. He always had an urgency to his work, yet would stop to answer any question in detail. I have a background in electronics and was very impressed with his troubleshooting skills in an outdoor lighting system designed by another electrician, whose work left a lot to be desired and was very difficult to figure out. He doesn't mark up parts or charge for the time to obtain them, which is highly unusual. He is very personable and his prices were very reasonable. I would definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

So i had a problem with the City Of LA! (Which are a bunch of crooks). It had to do something with some electrical panel situation and if u have ever been to the website of the City of Los Angeles, it is a pain in the butt. I called Ron to see if he can help me with the electrical panel. He was very honest and told me he couldnt help me because of the way my panel was set up. That was honest and I understood BUT what he did do was help navigate me thru the clusterF#@k of the website to help me get a permit. Ron didnt have to do that but he did. I really appreciate his help with that. He is on my list as someone I will call in the future for my electrical needs. Thanks Ron.

Today i had an issue with my smoke detector. Thank you Yelp for your reviews! because of you i only had to make one phone call ... Ron had stellar reviews!. I'm so glad i called. He came over on a Holiday and fixed it in a snap. If you're looking for a Trustworthy, Kind, Efficient professional. Give Ron a call!
Imagine this.. a service guy that calls you to say he is running late!
Add to that - quality work & reasonable charges and pleasant .= 5 stars.
Highly recommend Ron!
Simply the best, most professional, honest and pleasant electrician I have ever hired. Ron was on-time, worked through my problem and came up with a solution. He went above and beyond what I expected and I can't wait to have him come back to work on my other room. Hire him today! (and no, I'm not a relative!)
I just called Ron tonight based on the Yelp reviews. He lived up to the hype! Super helpful and super friendly. I will use him again with no reservations. This is actually my first Yelp review. His great service compelled me to do so!
Believe the five star reviews. Ron came to my house on a Saturday night, despite being called only hours beforehand. He stayed for 3.5 hours, meticulously installing smart WiFi light switches in numerous locations throughout my place. He even changed out an electrical box housing for free. Beyond that, Ron is the nicest guy ever. You don't expect an electrician to be so personable, but I really enjoyed his company. He's highly intelligent, a problem solver, and clearly loves his job. Fun fact, he even does voiceover work on the side as a hobby! With decades of experience, you won't go wrong with Ron. He's worth every penny, especially when electrical work can be both dangerous and a liability. He got the job done. He got the job done right. He offered to come back if any issues arise. And he did it all with a smile on his face. Hire him. What more could you ask for?
I'm so glad that I found Ron here on Yelp because he is a gem! We hired Ron to install a hanging lamp above our dining room table and he did a fantastic job. He was very knowledgeable and professional. When it came to installing the lamp he thoroughly explained how the current wiring was setup and gave me options for how I wanted it done. I would definitely recommend him for any of your electrical needs.
We live in Encino and have used Ron twice. He is a super nice guy, good at what he does, and he is good with inquisitive kids.

I'm torn... if I tell you all how great Ron is he may be too busy to answer my next call?
I only wish our; Dr., CPA, Senator, Governor, contractor, automotive repair... were as conscientious, comprehensive & collegial as Ron is. The world would be a far better place if every other professional we rely upon, shared a bit of Ron's ethos.
ENJOY!

Excellent service! Ron knows his stuff very well and explains things in a way that I can understand the basic workings of what he is fixing and why. Not only is his expertise top notch but so is his customer service! You cannot go wrong with Ron.
Ron picked up immediately the first time I called him, asked me all the right questions, and was available to assist me the next day. He was on time and quickly and easily fixed my kitchen light. Very friendly and professional, I'd definitely recommend him!
After the crazy March rains, we had a circuit blow out & leave 1/2 the house without power. Our regular guy was unreachable. I checked the Yelp reviews & was impressed by what people said about Ron. I now know, he's honest, reliable, personable & knows his stuff. I will most strongly recommend him for electrical service.
We own a rental home in the San Fernando Valley and we live out of the area. Not knowing who to call for an electrical problem, I immediately went to the computer and found a few good prospects. After speaking to a couple of electrical geniuses,(in their minds) I almost gave up; it was then I called Ron. He is professional, and efficient with his time which is your money. We now have someone we trust to take care of any future electrical problems.
If you are looking for a knowledgeable, competent and friendly electrician, look no further than Ron. He is fantastic! Our problem was in our kitchen; the stove and microwave would shut off for no apparent reason. I feared the worst; Ron came in and made the problem go away with seeming ease. He explained the problem clearly and answered all of my questions. I cannot recommend him enough! Thanks Ron!

Another great Yelp find!
I had a tenant complaining of flickering lights and power failures and we could not find the cause. I had the previous owner, as well as another electrician, look into it to no avail. I called Ron based on the excellent Yelp reviews and he lived up to his reputation. He was able to diagnose and fix the problem on a Sunday afternoon and gave me a very fair price. He also explained everything he did in detail and even impressed my tenant who is difficult to deal with.
Thanks Ron and fellow Yelpers!
I called Ron not too long ago and he picked up right away. Immediately noticed that he is one of the nicest people you will talk to you and really seems to want to help even if there's no monetary benefit. I spoke to about in-ceiling lighting which he says he does not do anymore, but referred me to a guy who does do the work. We went on to have a 30 minute conversation about different lighting and what would be my best option as far as what I would like to have in the room. He let me know what your research to have a better idea when I get the lighting done. He basically covered every single question that I had and made sure that I understood every step of the way. He even said he would come do a consultation before I get all the work done. I work in customer service and I can safely say that he offered some of the best customer service that I have encountered in the LA area recently. When I get all the necessary wiring run in the room I am definitely going to have him come back to finish up the job. If anybody is looking for an electrician I highly recommend at least giving him a call and see what he has to say. You will not regret it! :) Ron, you rock!

SUCH a nice guy, that Ron! He is a bit hard to get a hold of, but persistence (and texting instead of calling) paid off. I'm a personal assistant and called on behalf of my boss. He showed up exactly when he said he would and got to work. He made great suggestions to my boss, was efficient and articulate, and was just a nice guy to have around. Not that I paid the bill, but rumor is that his hourly rate was very competitive. Once we order those new fixtures he suggested, we'll be calling him back. Thanks Ron!

Ron is great. I read about him on yelp and was impressed by what was said about him. He more than lived up to those reviews. I had a small electrical job that turned into sometime that was far more complicated than anticipated. Ron was very helpful throughout the process of finding a way to correct the problem and kept me informed- it involved researching cutting-edge technology and that he adapted to my situation. His technical skill, along with thinking outside the box as well as being available to work on the project over a period of a few weeks created a new devoted customer for him.
Rich U
Ron did great work and is very personable. We had him fix and check a number of issues in our house. He explained what he was doing, why he was doing it and options for us to consider in fixing, replacing or leaving alone the items he checked. We will be hiring him again.

An electrician who returns phone calls, shows up on time, gives a reasonable bid over the phone, does excellent work, cleans up and doesn't jack up the price at the end with surprises. Go figure.
Ron just installed a ceiling fan last night and it works perfectly. Ron doesn't mind doing small jobs or even working at night to accomodate my schedule. He's professional, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Ron even promised to come back if we experienced any problems with the fan, even if it's the problems are with the manufacturer of the fan. Give him a call.
Ron Mulvey is a true professional electrician. Honest, intelligent, helpful, kind. An asset to the community and to our country. Other tradespeople should take lessons from him.
I will never use another electrician. Ron is as good as advertised. He was on time, knowledgeable, and is a great electrician. He was honest about what I needed, and made some smaller improvements to the property that were extremely helpful. I would have no problem recommending Ron to anybody and I wish more tradesmen were like him.
Trust me. Stop searching, and use Ron Mulvey.

Ron was really helpful. He came on the same day I called as it could have been urgent. Assessed the situation and tried his best to resolve it late in the evening. He made sure that everything was safe, said we should wait a few days and see if there is a recurrence. If there it happened again he would come and look for everything through a method of elimination. He is awesome, explained everything to us, showed us a burnt wire and the best part is he takes credit cards online. I would highly recommend Ron. He is a professional and a gentleman.
Ron is amazing. My broken-down bathroom fan sounded like it needed an exorcism. It turned out that the company that made the motor had gone out of business. So Ron did all the research and finally found one that worked for my fan... A true pleasure to do business with. Great communication, great price, great everything. If you're in his service area, I couldn't recommend him more!
I had a good experience with this electrician. He gave me a good price, worked efficiently, and had a pleasant attitude. I felt I got good value for my money.

I manage a building and the trickiest vendor is always a good electrician. My electrician should be your electrician. Ron is beyond awesome. He is on my speed dial. Had a rough fix over the holidays. Try getting anyone to come out during the holiday season! Stumped my appliance guys. Ron came out, absolutely willing to work with me with no past history, solved the electrical problem and also solved the other guys problem too. Thank you, Ron.

I don't normally write reviews, but after talking to Ron yesterday afternoon, I was so impressed!! All of the reviews on here are spot on. I called Ron yesterday to schedule an appointment to install a new light fixture. I had already removed my old fixture, and explained to him my concerns on installing the new one myself. After talking through it, Ron gave me FREE advice and pointed me in the right direction and basically talked himself out of a job. On top of that, he gave me some tips on some other electrical work I was doing. All told, he spent about 20 minutes with me on the phone giving me free advice - I don't know any electrician or contractor that does this. He was professional, easy to talk to, and extremely knowledgeable. I know who I'm going to call if I have any electrical jobs in the future that I can't tackle. Thanks Ron!!

Don't come any better than Ron. Was very patient and walked me through several troubleshooting steps on the phone, trying to assist me in solving the problem on my own to try to save me the money on a visit. When we couldn't resolve the problem over the phone, Ron squeezed me in that same day after he got done with his previously scheduled appointments.
Had the problem diagnosed and resolved within minutes. Overall, nice guy and will definitely be using him in the future.
I've been meaning to write a review for Ron for months. (I'm sorry Ron!) -- this guy is amazing. Kind, intelligent, honest and extremely knowledgable. I had him originally install a Tesla charging outlet in the garage. He did the job quick, efficiently, and at a much better price than was quoted by at least 3 other electricians (who also wanted to do a bunch of excess work, that Ron proved was unnecessary). I then had him come back to do many other little odd job electric projects around the house. He did an amazing job on all of them. Go to this guy before any others -- he will do the best job, give you the best deal, and actually explain in detail what needs to be done and what he did. And he is extremely reliable. Thanks again for everything Ron.
I would highly recommend Ron. He helped me over the phone but then I had an issue when the electricity came on. I had smoke come out under the sink (hot water dispenser blew). Ron came right over!! He checked the wiring for me, redid a outlet and will be coming back to fix a light fixture and replace a breaker. He is wonderful!
Wow! What can I say? I received the most incredible customer service from Ron. He was so personable and took the initial call personally. I called a ton of electricians and they all said sorry, they are in the field and can't call you but you can set up a consult and you can pay $$ but not have the chance to chat with someone first. So, I kept looking and so glad I did. Ron was so awesome and really new his stuff. He was so patient and really explained things to me. He had me send him photos so he could really assess it by phone as best he could. He helped educate me so I was not concerned about having an electrical fire. I was worried and the fire dept. had to come out twice in one day. Ron had pretty much diagnosed it almost perfectly by phone which was crazy. It does not get better than that. I was thrilled and would definitely call him again! You can not go wrong calling Ron! It will be the best customer service you get!

The work was completed as promised and we are very pleased with the quality and cost. Thanks!
Ron just left my house five minutes ago and I'm am SO happy that I can now say I got a guy when I need an electrician. He came within 30 minutes of my call, super friendly and the best part is HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. Not only did he tell me what my husband did wrong (so he could fix it on his own if he wanted to next time) but he also gave me advice on another issue and helped me figure out the most economical way to solve my problem. He even gave me a discount (on already reasonable prices) just for telling him I found him on yelp. I love this guy!

Awesome! I called Ron when all the outlets in our kitchen suddenly stopped working. Other companies had quoted me around $100 to come out to check it out, but Ron asked a few questions and said he'd try to help me fix it over the phone before he had to come out and charge me. And he did just that! I'm incredibly grateful that he was so helpful and gracious over the phone. It's fixed this time, but next time we need any electrical work he'll be the first person we call!
Very knowledgeable and professional. Reasonably priced and completed work in a timely fashion. Very helpful and friendly. He did a great job of explaining what needed to be done and why. He gave us several options on how to complete the work and gave us the pros and cons of each. Cleaned up area before he left. I would highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to call him again or refer him to friends and family. Very happy to have found this electrician.
My sauna mysteriously stopped working and I know nothing about these things so I called Ron who is local. He came in like Sherlock Freaking Holmes to solve the case, taking apart wires, asking questions about how the thing was behaving, etc. He wasn't in a hurry to get out, but didn't gouge me with a big hourly fee either. In fact I found his prices muy reasonable. Once he identified the guilty party (the faulty part) I ordered it and then he came back and put it in. He even explained to me what was happening. Totally recommend. If he can't fix it, he''ll tell you it's not his thing.
I hesitate to post this because he is so busy already and I'm afraid it will make it harder to get Ron when we need him - but the fact is he is a gem. Does a great job, calls and comes when he says he will, reasonable prices and just a nice guy. I highly recommend Ron - just don't call him the same day we do please!
Top stars for Ron. Without hesitation, he reviewed a list of items found during our home inspection. He provided detailed thoughts on each item, going above and beyond by educating us about the particulars of the job required. He did all this even while knowing there's a chance we may not be doing the work (buyers may assume responsibility). Thanks, Ron. We're happy to have found our one-stop electrician.
Reliable, honest and reasonable... I definitely recommend.
What can I say, Ron is the best when it comes to trouble shooting, research and repair. I have worked with him for years on my two 8 unit apartment buildings and my house. All of them were built in the 1920's. so they present their own unique challenges, but Ron always rises to the challenge. He's knowledgable and explains everything you you, even someone like me, who the only thing I know about electricity is that you can't see it, and it hurts if you do it wrong. He's one of the most fair people I've met in this business. Call him, you will be glad you did.

Unfortunately I am out of the Sherman Oaks area so can't rate Ron on his work but I can on his customer service. I emailed Ron because Yelp said he serviced the Santa Monica area when I did a search for an electrician. Even though Santa Monica was not his service area he still took the time to respond to my emails and provide me with advise on the right products to buy for my project. I think that is a good indication of the level of service you can expect from Ron. You don't see that kind of professionalism in the trades to often. Thanks Ron for your advice.

We had an electric issue and needed help fast. Found Ron on Yelp. Called and explained our problem. Ron came out. He explained every single thing that he did (the whys and hows) which was great He is a great communicator and likes to talk electric. He is extremely thorough and we had a lot of confidence in him. Eveyrthing is now up and running. We would use him again if anything should come up in the future. Very professional and nice guy.
Ron himself is very cool; he stayed for as long as it took to complete the job and made sure all his work was to his high standards! Diagnosed the problem and presented an accurate offer and even worked late to make sure everything was working; very reasonable too and a nice guy too!
Ron is a great guy who really knows his stuff. He diagnosed problems I had with a faulty three-way wall switch and a couple of improperly wired circuit breakers, and clearly explained what was needed to make them functional and safe. Along the way, he helped me understand how they work, and gave useful input on other wiring situations in my home as well. Plus, he's very personable, and put me at ease with what is maybe the scariest and most mysterious system in every house. I would not hesitate to call him for future repairs or upgrades!
Thank you Yelp. Ron was professional, knowledgeable, generous with his time and expertise and great with follow through. Highly recommended!

DO NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE! Ron came out this past July 4th weekend when my power went out. He systematically figured out the problem explaining to me the why's and what's behind his work. I will never call anyone else for any electrical issues again. After finding the problem and explaining why my box was overloading, he gave me options for what he can do to get more power into the house without anymore problems (and a quote for what it would cost). Trust the reviews, you will not be sorry that you called Ron. He is my go to, and my recommendation for everyone now.
I can only add to the accolades you've already seen. I found Ron on Yelp, he returned my call within two hours, he did an excellent job installing a tricky light fixture, and gave excellent advice about some funky wiring that was done in the house prior to our moving in. He is smart, practical, and NOT out to make a quick buck--he wants your business for life, and he certainly has mine!
We are SO glad we found Ron to fix the electrical problems we were having in our house! He's professional, friendly, and really knows his stuff -- AND his prices are very fair. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!
Ron worked on several electrical mysteries in our home and solved them all. Some turned about to be as simple as the wrong voltage of light bulb in a fixture and some required replacing sockets or entire light boxes. He was efficient, responsible and charged fairly. More than that, he was a really nice guy. He fit his work in around all the members of our household including the pets and he gave me as much or as little information as I wanted on the details of his work. I definitely recommend him.
Ron is great! Honest and straight forward. Hard to find now a days! He moved a plug and fixed a broken front light which really was a lamp defect! Will definitely call him back for any electrical problems. Highly recommend!
My wife and i had been putting off installing our new dishwasher. Our Friends and family members kept insisting on referring electricians to us; well they never came through. We just simply put it off for months. We now have a newborn baby, and we hardly have any time these days; our dishwasher became a priority again. i found Ron on yelp, and based on all the great reviews i figured i had a good chance of dealing with a great electrician. I have to admit Ron is definitely a friendly easy person to deal with and his pricing his more than fair. Not only did he get our dishwasher up and running, he also fixed our garbage disposal the same day. i will definitely recommend Ron to others and use him myself for future needs.
Ron Mulvey Electric is top-notch! Ron came out to check the flickering chandelier in my dining room. TWO other electricians had been out to look at it and ultimately couldn't figure out what was wrong. I was completely at a loss but the constant flickering was distracting and I kept worrying a loose wire could start a fire. So Ron came out, checked everything, assured me it was not a fire hazard, and found the root of the problem! Faulty lightbulbs! We replaced them all and the chandelier hasn't flickered since. TWO other electricians could NOT figure this out! Ron knows his stuff. I completely trust him and will call him for every electrical issue I have in the future. He is soft-spoken and very polite, his rates are competitive, he was on time, neat, and he knew what he was doing. I wish I'd called him first! I will recommend Ron Mulvey Electric to all my family and friends. He's the best!
