Best Businesses in California

I'm not good about sharing negative reviews but in this case I must.  I made an appointment with Dr. Electric at a certain time.  Never showed up.  Never emailed or called. Never responded to my email asking what happened.  It may have been a great experience but I'll never know.

Steve Gold is the best electrician I've found in Los Angeles. We have lived in two multi-unit buildings, served on the HOA of one, and I wish we had known about All Electrical Solutions back then. I wanted an owner/operator, licensed, professional, clean, courteous electrician who wouldn't try to oversell me and also took pride in a job well done. That's Steve! I usually handle all the house repairs since its easier for me to take time off work than my husband, and I'm always fighting the battle of the male contractor versus the 'lady of the house' talking-down drama, but Steve treated me with nothing but respect. I've managed multiple renovations, both small and large scale, so I know a few things but I still ask questions so I'm clear about what's going on with the job, no matter how small. Steve is a great communicator and does excellent work. We moved into a 1926 house with old two prong outlets. He replaced every outlet fairly quickly, without leaving a mess behind him. Before he removed even one outlet cover he said, I'll do my best not to chip this paint but just in case, do you have extra paint for touch ups? I knew he cared about the work he was doing and he didn't chip a thing. I also did not feel the need to watch over him which was a giant stress relief, he always let me know what he was doing/was going to do before he did it - and that was so very appreciated. He also inspected the electrical panel and any visible wiring. I had a few concerns about some old damage (a burned garage door opener, random wires hanging loose, an old electrical panel, a timer with wild wires, etc) and he inspected every one, explained what they were/had been used for, and made sure nothing was live/dangerous. He even labeled the new electrical panel outside that had been left blank by the previous electrician, informed me which outlets were on which circuit, and that it would most likely trip the breaker if I ran a vacuum and a hair dryer at once (I have yet to perfect that multi-tasking trick). He was well-spoken, educated, polite, professional in demeanor and appearance, and overall awesome. He even emails, which is great because I don't always have time to take a phone call at work, and I was able to send photos of the outlets needing to be replaced (he brought the new outlet covers and I paid for the supplies). I highly recommend his services and would hire him again. Even though mine was a relatively small job, I felt like a number one customer.

Jorge did my moms electrical panel. She was experiencing issues with her old panel. He recommended a new panel. Jorge s crew installed a new 100 amp service which fixed all my moms electrical problems. Highly recommend them. Fast service and great pricing!!  He was in top of it. Great communication!!

The whole Shok Electric team is spectacular. We adored Gloria who was meticulous with scheduling and billing and getting everything done efficiently.
David was punctual, communicative, conscientious and meticulous. On top of all of that, it sorta feels like your favorite uncle has come to do work on your house. Somehow you feel like they aren't just doing great work, but they are taking care of you. David, adorably, reminded me to lock my door every time he left, just like a good uncle would.
David installed two ceiling fans with boxes and redid wiring in our bedrooms and the work was excellent. Very clean and detail-oriented. There were a few issues with what I wanted vs the reality of what I could have. David was cool as a cucumber and a creative problem solver.
ETA: We also like that they accept Zelle, making the whole transaction easy peasy.

Fast Electric- the name says it all. We had a heavy rain, which doesn't happen often in California and 3 of our breakers were having ground faults and wouldn't reset. After searching around trying to find an electrician to come out right away, our prayers were answered when Nick responded quickly that he could come immediately. He found that we had a leak in our electrical box. Dried and cleaned everything off and replaced the breakers. Looks like I have to cook dinner now that the stove is working again. Thank you for your amazing service.  We will definitely keep his information in our contact list.

Omer went over and above installing a vintage chandelier light fixture that needed custom installation. He was extremely patient and we really appreciated his problem solving during the process.

My doorbell/chime in my 1929 house ceased to function a few months ago.  I love a wired old fashioned doorbell and wanted it fixed.  Hence I purchased an awesome 1972 chime.

Contacted these folks to do the job.  Received several emails re cost.  Reality?  I could care less about cost.  I just want a fabulous vintage chime and am more than willing to pay.

Eddie showed up today.  Nice guy but what I needed done was over his head.  

Reality?  I will do the work myself on Saturday.  I understand electricity and circuitry and don't need these guys.

If u need a lightbulb changed these are your guys.  Anything more complex?  

No comment.

Need reliable & affordable electrician, give them a call! I called them for a new fixture installation, Oscar came at perfect time just like we discussed. He checked out everything throughout the house and gave me the price on spot, i discussed with my husband because I wasn't familiar with prices, and he also said its a great deal, i called them the next day and they scheduled my installation the next day. They also did very good job, everything looked amazing!
Thank you so much for your services, will definitely recommend you to my friends & family!

Edwin installed a 15-40 NEMA for my EV car.

He was prompt and polite and did a great job with the install.

Thanks!

Needed to upgrade our old panel to a newer 200A rated panel to accommodate EV charging.  Peter was great at explaining to us what we need to do and was able to install the items we already had purchased for the ev charging. The work is top notch and done professionally.  He requested the city permit for us and scheduled the inspections. He will keep you updated and give you good advice. I would definitely use Peter again for electrical needs.

I highly recommend Mario Castillo Electric. From the beginning the communication was great!  Confirmation was easy. The technician, Sergio, was courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable.  I will continue to keep Mario Castillo Electric as my go to electrician and they will be an easy referral for me to offer.

Vasilii was good with communication and he let me know that he was running late. Reasonable pricing. Very professional. Replaced 3 recessed lights in the kitchen and installed 2 outdoor light fixtures. He also put up my house number plate for free. I highly recommend VS Electrical.

Called Steve on a Saturday night, he came over Sunday morning and quickly assessed the problem.  He gave us an estimate and completed the task in less than 2 hrs.

I called at 9:30 for the service and they responded to me with helpful advice without any charge and my electric power went back.
Thank you Nation .

I love E M Electric! My grandparents were coming to visit me and my ceiling fan completely stopped working. I needed a tech to service me as soon as possible because our guest room is so hot and wanted them to stay fresh and comfortable! I contacted E M Electric last minute and they serviced me that same night! I talked to Stephanie, she set up my appointment and was so sweet and so professional. Definitely would re hire them!!

No wonder Zareh is the best electrician for Tesla owners in Southern California! Not just because he's professional and detail-orientated to evaluate the Tesla charger installation work precisely, but also he's very honest on what you really need. Zareh will not 'add' unnecessary work unless it's absolutely required. He will explain all the options with pros and cons, then give his professional recommendation for your decision making. The price quote from Zareh is also very reasonable compared with other service providers. I highly recommend Zareh for Tesla and any other electrical service needs.

Don't waste your time with anyone else! I had a really small electrical job that I had been putting off for a few days(faulty outlet) and was not looking forwaRd to trying tto setup a company to comE out.

I used yelps message feature and found coastal services electric and I'm so glad I did. They responded within minutes...had availability that afternoon and even when I was running late to get home they were patient, friendly and kind.

Val and Adrian were quick to confirm my diagnosis of the problem and repair the faulty outlet in roughly 20min.

If I ever have any other electrical needs this will be my first call

Highly recommend!

I wanted to post for these great guys again, as we just finished (finally) the master bathroom and needed some additional outlets.  I called them back in and they remembered us!  That really was a great feeling, and said a lot to me about their service.  (silly thing really, but good CS goes a really long way with me) They were on time, got it done quickly and without any mess, and at a very reasonable price.  They ARE my go-to electricians - I will use them every time!

We had some AC issues over the 4th of July holiday and we were in need of a new circuit breaker. We called Rick and he was able to come and fix our breaker on a Saturday, during a holiday weekend. He was very professional and honest and we would not hesitate to call him in a second. Not only did he fix our breaker, he did a thorough job of inspecting our AC unit, which isn't even part of his job. He just wanted to make sure that our AC repair man did a proper job. He even spoke with our AC repair man to make sure we didn't get ripped off. Finally, he texted me the very next day to follow up with me to make sure our AC was working. Rick is the best at his job and I would highly highly recommend him for your electrical needs. Thank you Rick!!!!

East West electric performed above and beyond expectations. They were prompt, efficient and very professional. Vartan & Nishan communicated effectively and there were no surprises. They are skilled and friendly and charged a fair price for their great service. They installed recessed lights with firebox protection and installed all my fixtures after construction removed them. Their follow up was great. I would highly recommend using East West Electric to anyone who reads this review.
