Best Businesses in California

First time working with Next Level Lighting, John was very quick to respond which was awesome, he was very descriptive/informative and very pleasant to work with. We had set up an appointment the very next day. Ozzy and The team did an amazing job, I was very pleased with the outcome. Great experience with this company, I would definitely recommend them to a friend.

I had these guys do a couple projects for me. Initially they were good, then most recently their office has been extremely non-responsive and difficult to deal with. The items they suggested I purchase were discontinued, and I think they wanted me to purchase their items retail to unload product.

They gave an estimate for very basic work, then never showed up!!!! I followed up with a call and email, and they didn't respond until the day after they are supposed to show up and I take time off work. Their response is We apologize we didn't finalize your estimate. Total BS, given that I emailed several times and they just don't respond.

Apparently their business is doing real good, so they are too busy to respond and communicate. You can't even get the person on the phone who is supposed to do the installing, and who can answer the questions. All in all, they are pretty unprofessional, and difficult to deal with - not customer service oriented at all. I would not trust them to do work in my home or cut into my walls, etc. This isn't rocket science, and customer service is a pretty basic element of doing business. Bottom line, they've lost my trust and I will never do business with them again, and I would NEVER recommend them to anyone if they can't handle the basics of coordinating the hanging of a TV on the wall, a couple speakers and some internet. WOW. Zero stars to service, and negative 5 stars for communication.

Pete and every person that works for him is amazing! He responds right away, I'm scheduled asap and their work is impeccable! It's very difficult to find solid electricians and I will never have anyone work on my house but Armes Electric.  They have my business for life and I highly recommend them!

The front desk in my building recommended Robert Electric so I called about something and it ended up totally unrelated to any service they offer. However, the guy that answered stayed on the phone with me for ten minutes giving me ideas that would help - knowing that there was 0% I would be a paying customer. That's pretty incredible and I will use Roberts Electric for any electrician work I have in the future, guaranteed.

My Main circuit breaker broke on a Sunday afternoon. My husband was at work and I couldn't believe that out of all of our friends none of them are electricians! I called around for about an hour trying to find somebody who wouldn't charge me an arm and a leg to replace the $20 part. My husband was at work and I knew my chances of getting ripped off were pretty high. My husband called me and told me he found a guy that wants me to call him because he could walk me through fixing it. I told my husband that I already knew how to flip a breaker switch. He said he already told that to the electrician and that he wanted me to call him anyway.
I reluctantly called the number my husband gave me and sure enough the gentleman on the other line walked me through fixing the problem myself at no charge! He knew my husband was not at home and could have easily made a quick $200! I am so grateful for this man's honesty and will definitely be calling Pacific Electric for all of my electrical needs!

I have used Chad from Arendt Electric for many of my home projects, he is clean, professional, and a wonderful electrician to work with.  Highly recommended.

They are great! They have changed out our old garbage disposal a year ago and it's still working great. When our ceiling fan broke in the master and living room. We contacted Farhad again, they were quick to respond! Quoted us for 4 hour but got it done under 3 hours. Really great services, they were through and cleaned up. Very reasonable quote! Super polite and very good at letting us know that they were in their way. Easy to talk too. We are grateful for them in fixing the fans since it has been so hot! It has been a month now and everything is still working great! Thank you so much!!

Called last minute for help with a DIY project gone wrong. Was able to fit me in the next day, and re-wired my entire kitchen/living room in 7 hours, even sweeping and vacuuming when finished. Super friendly, hardworking guys! Manager even stopped by to check the progress and see if I needed anything else. They were clean, on-time and extremely knowledgable. You can tell they pride themselves on efficiency, cleanliness and excellent customer service!!

Thank you so much Louie and Sean for all your hard work! Your job exceeded my expectations ten-fold and I'm so happy to have found you on Yelp. Thanks for being great with the kitty and puppy as well!!!!!!!

A friend of mine gave me Energy Electric San Diego telephone number because I was having some electrical issues and did not know who to call.

When I called the company, I spoke to Chris (the owner) and explained to him my problem. I made an appointment to have him come out and take a look at what was concerning me.

The problem was taken care of quickly and efficiently.

I found Chris to be honest, reliable and very knowledgeable.  He is enthusiastic about his work and explains the problem in simple terms.

I am so happy I contacted Energy Electric San Diego. If you are picky like I am and need a company that is professional, dependable and gets the job done right, then you should definitely give them a call.

Eric Lectured me for over 40 minutes as he stalled to complained about how long it would take to Install a Motion Sensor Light & Camera before starting the Job as he was charging $75/Hr.
He seemed obstinate arguing why he didn't put up the Light & Camera were I requested him to on the SW Corner & the Electric Box on the NW Corner as agreed.yet then did not nd Did NOT do as instructed & it did Not Work!...
He  spent several minutes calling his Girl Friend & J.W. Friends & took over a 3 Hour Shopping trip then said it was too late to finish and fix the problem demanding I pay him before he left.
He also   Accidentally Cut Hole on the NW corner when he was supposed to be working on the SW Corner..
It was dark & he claimed the The fixture was malfunctioning vs. his faulty wires...
I had an extra Fixture so we  changed the fixture out & the camera seemed to work so I paid him...However when I went to turn on the exterior & interior lights at the switch &  outlet he ran the wires though Both the the Exterior  interior light began flashing off & on...
He refused to come back and fix or check it with out charging me & he did NOT put the outlet box on the west side as I requested because he said it was more work than he expected even though he initaliy said he would.
He arrived 2 hours late, then took off for several hours to go shopping holding me up all day-afternoon  returning so late that he was rushed and preoccupied with other calls and reiterating or trying to talk me out of the work he bid to do, I offered to pay him by the hour and he still was hesitant, dramatic and full of me all the excuses & NOT able to remember what he was to do as he kept talking about the work vs. doing it. I wanted was cooking Dinner & tired of talking as he rehashed it over and over again...When he finally finished the work was sloppy the grommet/seal was exposed & my Dining Hutch Light started flashing off & On at the outlet he rewired & the Exterior Light also was flashing off & on. The only thing that worked was the camera that was plugged in...He overcharged was incompetent and so I went to Check out his Company to find that he was NOT licensed.
He Claims to Be a Jehovah's Witness so I expected He Would Be Honest but when I checked him out & Found out that He Apparently he is a Poser who  claims to be a Licensed Electrician-Journeyman, He talks & talks but could NOT Install a Functioning Motion Sensor & Damaged the existing Outlet so that it No Longer Functions correctly and left it wiried Incorrectly then Bullied me Demanding his Pay after he said He Underbid the Job then Switched to demanding an Hourly rate as he and still was Unable to complete the Job & or Correct the Problem that he created and said he could Not stay to Fix the Problem becasue he  had to Go to a JW Meeting & see His Girlfriend...He said he would only come back to fix the Problem if I continued to pay for another trip charge and give him a Good Yelp Review...It was a Waste of my Time & Money as he  apparently had No Clue as to what to do and just charged me to come out and argue...So the outlet and lights didn't work he apparently broke the outlet that initially worked & still charged me over $350 for 1/2 day of lecturing & arguing so I guess I ended up paying him to go away...

Volt Electric was a breath of fresh Air.  I had a small job and their communication  was first rate.  They needed I more information and it was obvious they had like Ike's at what I sent them. There was a issue due to covid and it was handled with minimum problems.  They showed up in time and did a great job.  I requested another small job and it was handled due to the efficiency of Nick.  I had them quote another job for later.  Yes I will use them again.  

The job was done in a top notch manner and I knew it is to code and safe.  The job was done per the quote.

I've had real trouble getting work done in my home.  Mainly it is due to poor communication then add on mystery problems.  Volt Electric had professionalism in every aspect.  I highly recommend them.

Portable generator- Hard wiring of a manual transfer switch.
First off I found it was kind of difficult to find an electrician locally that would even give me a quote but I was able to get two quotes for the job. Nathan provided the better price. He was also ok with using the switch I already bought without really knowing that they usually use a interlock and sub panel. Anyway he did the whole installation and testing on a Saturday morning. Flush mount would look better but wasn't room and it's not like it's a new house. He showed he how everything works and tested it with the generator running I am so happy Don't Have worry about power outages this year I'm ready!

We've used Bill for many years. I'm surprised there are not more reviews posted regarding his excellent service. If you want someone who shows up on time, returns phone calls, is professional and honest with reasonable rates, don't hesitate to call him.

Left 2 messages in the last week. Still haven't heard back, just to schedule an appt. My days off are over. Will call someone more responsive, and courteous, next time. So much for trying to support a local business.

Recently had a level 2 charger installed. Great service and communication! They were very knowledgeable and helpful in deciding where to place the charger and very upfront about the cost

We were having trouble without electricity in our house all while the crazy pandemic is going on. A friend recommended Joe B. Electric to us. He was helpful and friendly! He even came back to help us put an additional part in that we needed to order. Great service!

FJ is a great guy with excellent customer service skills!  I was looking for an electrician because we have loads of problems at my house and he gave estimates on the phone that sounded reasonable, compared to the other electricians/ companies out there who said there was a minimum fee just to come to the door! The previous yelp reviews definitely helped in calling FJ :)
Anyways FJ comes over, looks at the houses problems, ends up being worse than I thought :( he did what he could that day and I was satisfied, my house needs miracles! However a few days later FJ emails to say it was bothering him that our house could be safer than what it was (our house is about 100yrs old, not vintage cute either) for my husband, myself and our new son.
It was/is very thoughtful that he kept us in mind even though time had passed since he came out. I was shocked and both my husband and myself were overwhelmed by how genuinely nice and caring he is.
I highly recommend him for any size project, the work he did looks awesome and knowing what the problems were before FJ we feel a lot safer.
Give FJ a call you won't regret it!!!

Called the electrician company that my neighbor works for to try and get some things done as a surprise to my husband. The lady on the phone said she had him busy on other projects but she would send who she could spare. The man that came to my house smelled so bad and his clothes looked like they had not been washed in a week. After he left I called the lady back she just laughed on the other end and said well what you expected to get when you call me on the last minute on a Friday.

What an amazing and professional company to work with. I requested a quiet-cool house fan to be installed at my house and they scheduled me in within three days. After reviewing different options they came to my house on time and the installation took about an hour. This is one of the best vendors that you can get to install your quiet-cool fans.  Thank you for all the help.  I'll be sure to recommend you in the future.

Thank you so much Miguel!!!! Miguel was very nice and professional and knowledgeable...repaired my two outlets right away when I needed it the most since my renters were moving in soon.
