Best Electricians in California

Joe from Harris electric was great. We had had other electricians try to fix the same electric problems in our house but he was able to do it right the first time! He was professional, up front, honest and made the whole process easy. I would highly recommend him to any and everyone. We will definitely use him again !

TOTAL RIP OFF! Not sure where all these positive reviews come from. Our experience with O'Hagan was terrible and a waste of $49 dollars. We do NOT recommend them at all.

Steve showed up same day as requested to troubleshoot a partial power outage we had in our living room. Something that seemed to be a simple issue. Literally from the moment he walked in, he starts pointing out how EVERYTHING is wired and done incorrectly. He literally made it sound like our house is going to burn down to ashes soon if we don't listen to what he says and hire him yesterday. You know that feeling when you go in for an oil-change and the mechanic tells you you need to replace ten other parts asap otherwise your engine is going to explode without really telling you why? Yeah that feeling ...

Then he starts telling us if we were to sell our newly remodeled house in its current condition we won't be able to until we get the things he recommends fixed... which was total BS. We recently bought our house and had it inspected to its entirely including electrical wiring and panel and the inspection passed just fine.

Then he starts pulling out couple of outlets and plugs which he never screwed one back in before he left. The same person that was schooling us for an hour about safety left electrical wires open. I had to get my tools and put things back after he left. We noticed that night the second plug that he removed and put back in the wall where we normally charge our phones while watching TV is not working and it was working just fine before.. Thanks to Steve, now we have an additional plug with no power.

Then he give us an estimate with 3 options. Option #1: $391 to troubleshoot and fix partial power outage that we were having. Option #2: $3,255 to update some plugs and install some new GFCIs (they charge $60 to replace a simple plug which we found outrageously high) Option # $8,725 ... They charge bloody $5,500 to replace a panel.

Then he becomes a car dealer where he tried to push us to go with option # 2 or 3 , offering us financing and etc. My wife and I decided to go with option #1 of $391 to get the issue on hand fixed for now. After we reconfirm for now we only like to pay $391 to get power back to the walls he finally agrees to get to work. As we are getting ready for him to get started, he says hmmm yeah I'll need to troubleshoot this and it may be more than $391... WHAT THE HECK! He just quoted us for $391 and now that he was about to start fixing the problem he was asking for more money.

At that point, I decided to kindly ask him charge us the $49 and leave. I've never seen a company that give you a written quote and then verbally ask for more money.

Their prices are INSANELY HIGH. They create a sense of urgency by telling you how horrible things are and you need to pay right away to get things fixed.

We just hired a licensed electrician this morning for $80 an hour. Even if it takes 20 hours to replace a panel outside, it will cost $1600 and not $5,500.

Stay away. You've been warned.

Very helpful and good people. They are fair and honest. I recommend using this business.

We obtained a few quotes for our project and we are really happy with Inception Electric.  They were responsive, punctual and gave a fair quote.  

Once they arrived, they immediately figured out the problem.  Once the part arrived, they returned to my house to complete the job.  

We will use them again for future jobs.

I highly recommend this contractor. They were transparent and plain spoken from the very first conversation over the phone. They were easy to speak with and were clear about possible outcomes and options. They provided excellent communication about availability and time frames. They were also very reasonably priced. In our case, we needed to have more wiring added in to a line that wasn't installed correctly the first time. In our conversation, the representative had a sense of my experience with electrical and even suggested I could probably fix it myself and he clarified what kind of solution met code and what did not. That said, their pricing was reasonable and there was a chance the repair could be beyond my capability, therefore I schedule them for a repair. They did exactly what they indicated they would do. Before deciding to go with Tradesman I had spoken with two other contractors and reached out to a few others. The other contractors seemed to have a higher price point and were not as transparent about how they would fix the repair and their cost estimates were almost double that of Tradesman.

Our light switch in the bathroom broke yesterday and thank goodness Eden came by to replace it today. Very professional and was quoted a very reasonable price. Will definitely reach out to them again for future electrical services.

I cannot say enough about Rainer and his team at Synchronized Home Solutions.  As we were relocating to San Diego, I was dreading the interactions with service providers (internet, tv, etc) as they are typically pushy with their sales tactics and they usually have long wait periods for installation.  Rainer was able to step in, arrange for my requested service needs and install my internet and DirecTV services within a very short timeframe.  He made the process less complicated and less stressful.  Excellent customer service with an incredibly rapid response time.  Simply the Best and highly recommended.

My first opportunity to work with Gibson and Gibson Antique Lighting was more than 20 years ago while I was a design student; Jim Gibson (owner) created a terrific custom fixture from antique parts and pieces for a student installation at an upstairs hall for an ASID Showcase House I was involved in.  

I had been aware of Jim's work prior to that experience through an Artwalk show where we were both exhibiting items.  

As an interior designer (insidestoryonline.com) I am constantly on the lookout for suppliers and manufacturers that provide unique items that can be produced on time, within budget, to specification and who are knowledgeable not only of their industry but of the 'interiors' field as a whole.  Jim and his production crew at Gibson and Gibson Antique Lighing are all of those things and more.

Over the years my clients have been lucky enough to have lighting made for them that meet my specifications exactly providing the proverbial 'icing on the cake' for their projects.  For one project in particular Gibson and Gibson Antique Lighitng  created custom chandeliers from actual molds he made of fixtures that were originally installed in the arcades of various buildings built for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in Balboa Park.  

Jim's expertise in all facets of design has also allowed Gibson and Gibson to produce wonderful contemporary fixtures for my clients as well.  Please don't be afraid of the word 'custom' which can often allude to 'expensive.'  For truly unique, one of a kind lighting fixtures, the pricing for the various things I have contracted with Gibson for have always been affordable and within budget.  Not once has one of my clients passed out from sticker shock.

Finally, it is with great respect and appreciation for the work that Jim Gibson has created for me over the years that I write this review.  I am sure that should you choose to work with Gibson and Gibson your experience will be as pleasant as mine have always been.

Hired Mission Electrical Service to wire in a spa at our house in Clairemont.  While I called on a few different companies in the area, I was most impressed with this one.  

His price was competitive, he was professional, and came highly recommended.  

He showed up to quote the work in uniform driving a van w/decals and license numbers etc.  He is not a fly by night operation or a moonlighter but a true professional who takes his business serious (I like that).  Wouldn't trust my house or safety of my kids (they play in the spa) with anyone else.

A fantastic job and a super clean install with the wiring and conduit well hidden.

I'm hiring him again in a few weeks to install outside lighting on the patio.

We have a new electrician!

I don't write reviews often but I felt compelled to for Don and his crew at Electric Unlimited.  I needed some ceiling lights hung and gave them a call on a Sunday.  He called me back within 15 minutes and we set up a time to come out and give a free estimate.  He gave a reasonable estimate and worked to fit the job in as soon as he could.  They were in and out in 90 minutes and charged me less than the original estimate.  I will definitely use them again in the future.

Nick and his team at Source One Electrical did excellent electrical work at my home.   They installed can lights throughout, as well as ceiling fans, and replaced old light fixtures.   Their work was clean and neat, and they were reliable as promised.  Thank you Nick, Billy and staff.

Nick does excellent work!

He's responsive, friendly, professional, and does excellent work.

He did an awesome job installing my Tesla wall charger.

I can't recommend his work enough!

Extremely pleased - showed up in approximately one hour from my call, which is unheard of in my experience. Quickly fixed the issue and charged a very fair price. I would highly, highly recommend.

Randy installed a new 220 breaker for our swim spa project.  Randy and his crew Doug and Nick were great guys to have working in our home.  Project was completed as planned by a professional team!  Would hire them again and again without seeking a second quote!

Mauricio of Professional Electrical Services installed my EV charger. During the quoting process, I sent pics of my breaker box and garage setup to multiple electricians. Mauricio identified the best solution for me, avoiding the need to install a subpanel like other electricians were recommending. His expertise was clear. His price was also competitive so I went with him.

The official quote and invoice all came through a professional online portal that made everything clear, official, and easy to pay electronically.

On the day of service, Mauricio was at my house right on time. We finalized details of the plan and he went right to work. He was able to minimize interruption of electrical power to our house, allowing my wife and I to continue working from home. As an engineer and DIY'er I had questions and opinions about technical details. Mauricio seemed happy to explain and his explanations again demonstrated technical expertise.

The job was completed in 4 hrs or so and I am very happy with the result. The conduit and charger look very clean. Thank you Mauricio and PES!

I had an old main breaker lose a leg of power last week so I called John.  He came over within an hour, assessed the issue and fixed it perfectly the next morning with new parts. He was very professional and friendly, got the work done and his rates were very reasonable.  I highly recommend Baratelli Electric!

Want to say thank you to Daniel for his thorough, neat and quality work he provided yesterday at my house, needed a simple outlet installed in by back yard for my BBQ Island and a repair on my patio cover electrical that the previous company screwed up on. Even though it was a simple job it's the attention to detail and quality that I appreciate. Thanks Daniel.

Rescheduled original appt at the last minute, which would have been fine. But then didn't show up to the rescheduled appt the next day. I messaged him on yelp after he was 10 min late to be sure he was coming and by the time he was 45 minutes late I still hadn't heard a single word from him. I stayed home from work and wasted my morning for nothing. Punctuality and communication are critical to me. I'd recommend anyone else.

What a rip-off! They charged over $400 to install a ceiling fan and an outlet. They were here for 2 hours (why it took even that long is another mystery since there were THREE guys here working) and 6 mins. but charged for full 3 hours. When I called them to inquire about the charges, they were flippant and uncooperative. And when I asked why a very similar job the year before cost under $200, I was told that I got a real good deal.  Seriously??
Never again! Buh-bye...
