Best Businesses in California

I needed to have an outlet installed and exhaust fans replaced in two bathrooms. Jeff responded to me immediately and was able to come to fix the issues the next day (Sunday). He did the job in two hours and did an excellent job. Price was fair too. Thanks Jeff!

Homeowner needed help, and I got it from Craig. Craig's weekend was booked and would not available until Monday. I told Craig my water heater conversion problem from gas to electric he told me to text him if I had any questions during my install and that was on a Sunday. I must have texted him about 20 times, and he did not once ignore or give a condescending remark. Craig checked in on me over the next 24 hours and complemented my handyman skills. We tried to compensate for his time, but he kindly declined. We felt this is the least we could do for him. With his help, we were able to take a hot shower before the weekend's end. We will be calling Craig for all our electrical needs in the future. THANKS, CRAIG!!!!

Fast, reliable service. They respond quickly and are a pleasure to work with. Great company, highly recommended.

At first, I though I'd found my 'forever go to' electrical service. I spoke to David and he was very knowledgable, providing an evaluation of what needed to be accomplished through texted photos and phone conversations. Then, it took weeks to get a cost quote. Once the quote came it took several more weeks to get a scheduled appointment. Then on the appointment date, they never showed up. I waited, and waited, then called them and they didn't even have me on their schedule (and they are the ones that gave me the appointment day and time). I could go on, however no need. It doesn't matter how much experience and knowledge a business can provide, if they have no customer service acumen and they don't follow through.....

Doug did 7 jobs for me in two and a half hours, plus the time it took him to shop for two parts I knew he would need.  He worked very quickly, despite most of the tasks requiring various-sized ladders.  I really appreciated his on-time arrival.  He is friendly, a good communicator, and has a nice truck with all the tools and components you could hope for.  We are extremely satisfied with the work.

I had some problems with Ideal in the past (see 2012 review) but they have fixed some of that and I am a fan again.  Please read the following...

I have used Ideal for many years. Had the entire house re-ducted for the HVAC.  The old duct was the cardboard coated with asbestos type.  They safely (think men in bunny suites) removed the old duct, installed a new sealed and highly efficient duct system and super-insulated the attic.  Also installed a gable fan to more effectively vent the attic (I know there is controversy about these but in this case it really helps.)  They have also done plumbing in the kitchen and bathroom (new toilets, sinks, etc), appliance installation and electrical work.  In all cases they have been professional, kind and highly skilled and the price was reasonable.

Bottom line, they do quality work with professionalism, respect for you and your home, and skill.  They are flexible about prices and will work with you to help meet your budget.  I have to say that you can't go wrong with Ideal.  Pretty much when anything in the house breaks I call them!

Alert: deceitful billing practices! Contractor taking advantage of an emergency power outage.

After a utility pole went down on our property, we got a quote from Alfredo for temporary power/Generator hook up, which we thought was pretty high to begin with. As it turned out, he billed and got paid from our tenants directly in addition to what he charged us, which almost doubled the cost of temp. power. He later claimed the amount he quoted and charged us was only for the second day's work, not the first night, even though he texted us both before AND after working on the property on that first night, fist saying he is on his way and then again saying our tenants have temp. power and everything is good, never mentioning there was a separate charge for that first night. The next day, we were told he left his cell phone in the office, so that we could not contact him, and no one else in the office had any details about this job. We called a couple of times because we wanted a quote for the utility pole replacement (until we heard from our tenants about the separate payment).  After two days, we never received a quote for the utility pole. We had another electrician do that, who did an excellent job and for a reasonable amount.

Zed Electric is very very expensive. Zed electric charged $240 an hour. We had plugs that didn't work in one room. For an hour the guy looked around the one room opening different plugs but couldn't find the GFI. Finally he went into the breaker and realized that there was a GFI somewhere in that room. I had to go and help him find it. Otherwise he would have charged another hour. After an hour and 15 min, at my suggestion he had no choice but look where I thought the GFI was and there it was. He told us we had to change the GFI because once they start tripping they are a goner. So it cost us $300 labor for a$25 part. Crazy expensive.

I haven't used All Pro Electric for any services, however I'm giving them 5 stars for their quick and helpful response. We were ready to sign solar paperwork and were told that we should upgrade our panel, but it would require trenching and cost thousands. I contacted All Pro through Yelp and asked for a rough estimate so we could decide whether to move forward with solar. Daniel R. responded within an hour and provided helpful information. I will consider using their services in the future. Thanks!

Good service,after we realize out hot water pipe was busted, I called couple of companies, Darell was quick to respond, he came out about 1AM fixed it, and I was able to sleep peacefully, and not have to worry about leaking pipe.
Good & friendly service.
I would highly recommend.

If i could leave 6/5 stars I would. John came over to help, on his day off and was so professional, nice and all around genuine. I was initially a bit freaked out as the power had completely gone out in our kitchen and this had been an on and off problem for a week. My wife and I couldn't figure out what the problem was. After John got here he assured me it was a simple fix and even taught me a little on how replacing the outlets and breakers for our home works. The best experience I have ever had working with an Electrician. I will definitely be calling John back if i ever have issues in the future. Definitely will be recommending to my friends and family that live in the SD area as well.

Kelley was great! We had a whole list of things we need help with and Kelley counseled us on all of them. We prioritized a couple of plumbing issues including a leak of unknown origin under our kitchen sink. Kelley diagnosed the problem, proposed a couple of different possible solutions and then executed the repair plan by installing a new faucet and sealing everything up. She left us with a kitchen sink that was in much better shape than when the sink was originally installed. She totally Fixed It !!! We'll definitely call her again.

Fantastic service! Friendly and professional. Couldn't ask for better! Highly recommend him!

JW is the best electrician I've ever used.  I've been in the construction business for 20 years.  I have met a lot of contractors and JW electric is the one of the best.  From my home to my business I wouldn't trust anyone else with my electrical needs.

Did a great job and he is able to troubleshoot quickly. Actually calls back and lets you know his status. Has a truck full of stock so no need to run to home depot.
