Best Businesses in California

Showed up in masks, set up quickly to protect flooring, etc. to install our chandelier. We had to provide feedback on how we wanted it installed. They listened and did an even better job than asked. Also, our CA room required better lighting. Not only did they recommend the appropriate light fixture, they saved us from wasting our money and potentially damaging our stucco. They clearly work hard to ensure satisfaction and take pride in the work they do.

I recently moved into a house that is not ideal for surround and very not ideal for in-wall speakers. I needed So Cal to supply five new in-wall speakers and replace my projection screen (wall mounted, motor driven) then install it all as well as the projector and a sub-woofer placed far from the other electronics. . They said they could do it in a day. I had my doubts. They did it even including drywall patching and matching the paint color of the walls. I spent more time tuning and adjusting the system to my preferences than they spent cutting, pulling cables and patching and painting. Professional, excellent service and I feel I got my money's worth.

PS to Cole B the guy with the one start review. Combining speaker wires is quite normal. The connection from my mono amp to my sub-woofer consists of five wires bound and soldered to act as one. That was required by John Moravskis, the man who built that sub-woofer as the only way to make a proper connection for low frequency handling.

Great service!  Having an electrical issue during this crazy coronavirus times was not good timing.  My regular contractor stopped working for two weeks.  The next guy I called texted me back but would not answer his phone. When I called Armes based on Yelp reviews, Pete immediately answered and was very helpful over the phone. He took the time to explain possible issues to me and what the costs may be.  Their initial service fee was a little higher than some others, but when it comes to electrical issues, I really didn't want to take chances.  
He had two guys at my house within 30 minutes!  They figured out and solved the problem, and the overall bill was reasonable in my opinion.  
The two guys that came out were very polite, professional and knowledgeable.  
Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this company.  
I would not hesitate to call them any time I have an electrical problem.

I have an old house and I need frequently need an electrician (and a plumber, and a...) My old favorite guy retired and I was looking for someone new. I'm glad I called as I think I found someone I can trust to replace my old trustworthy electrician. The technician was professional, neat, and explained everything fully and in language I could understand - just like my old guy. I will definitely be calling them again as soon as the next thing breaks down in my old house!

Awesome guys, great service and on time , a lot cheaper then big electric company's , they don't charge to come look at the problem, they stay till the job gets done.

I was referred to Arendt Electric by my general contractor to find the source of a circuit fault. It was evident Chad has significant experience diagnosing improperly wired circuits. He handled the problem promptly. As a result of his talent, I have hired him to help me make my new house the way I want it. Fan install, ceiling speakers for Atmos theatre sound, and outdoor wiring.

I had Farhad to install an outlet behind my TV. The job was not easy. He took care of everything such as dry wall, patching and running wires behind the wall through the stud in a very small and tricky area. Very professional! I am so satisfied with the work.

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!!!!!!!

I was so fortunate that Chris from Energy Electric answered my call about my problem with an electrical outage that affected my master bedroom, computers, and TV. He guided me through some over the phone tests to determine source of the problem and then arranged to get the correct breakers/fuse that were needed to fix it. He was at my house the next morning and was able to get everything back to normal in a short time. I really value his expertise and commitment to fixing my problem. Highly recommend.

Eric was super awesome to come over and help us out with a variety of issues. I got a quote from someone else we had used in the past and when my husband heard it, he was outraged and searched out Eric for a 2nd opinion. His quote was much more reasonable and he was able to help us out. He installed an electric charger in our garage, two new plugs, fix our breaker issue where my hair blow dryer refused to stay on, and diagnose our stairwell lights that kept burning out. Whew! We will definitely call him next time.

Nice job. Installed my new outside lights on time, at price promised, cleaned up beautifully. Thank you!

I contacted Albers on the recommendation of a relative.  Nate responded on short notice, at the time he stated.   He installed lights as well as new electrical outlets, both inside and outside.  He was clean, fast, professional and very reasonably priced.  I won't hesitate to call him again.  In fact, I've already started my wish list for electrical upgrades to my old house.  Highly recommend!

I've used Bill at Mister Electric for years, he is a staple of Scripps Ranch. He is a one man shop, polite and fair in his dealings. His reported closure by Yelp (december 2018) is untrue, I called him this week and he was at my house to provide quotes for some small jobs I need done.
He is busy but leave a polite, clear message on the voice mail and expect a call back about your work. Recommended.

We met with several electricians for estimates on some small jobs around our house. Mike listened to our requests, offered excellent suggestions, and provided a very competitive estimate. He was able to get us scheduled quickly.  His team was professional and thorough in their work. We'll be using them again for future projects!

I am extremely pleased with the A-EV Installs team and would highly recommend them if you're in the market for an EV charger install.  Steven was very thorough and even helped me pick the right EV charger for my Jaguar IPACE.  Thanks for doing such a great job!

Had another guy try and wire an ac outlet, HDMI and speaker wire for a home theater.  Had to have him stop after he had started.  He cut a big hole in my drywall and said the wires couldn't be fished.  Would have to open up the ceiling at each rafter to run it.
Had Joe come out.  He saved the day.  Ran the outlet, HDMI, and speaker wire.  He was able to fish all of it without cutting a piece of drywall.  He even found a recessed tv outlet box that was big enough to cover the hole the other guy had cut in my ceiling.  Had him install a hanging light and a fan/light in another room as well.  I'll be using Joe for all my electrical needs from here on out.

RJ was prompt & professional, he took care of several issues in a matter of minutes for a reasonable price. Thanks again.

Chris helped me with an electrical problem in my condo.  It was a situation where I may have had to upgrade my circuit box but Chris found a workaround.  He could have really tried to run up my electrical bill but he found a way to fix the problem quickly and without a huge cost.  He was sensitive to the timeliness of my issue and getting the solution figured out and fixed quickly.  His manner is professional yet affable.  I highly recommend Chris for any size electrical project.

I had my fan installed over a month ago, but wanted to wait a few before posting to make sure my post was accurate.  From the beginning the owner was on top of it.  He didnt try to up sell anything, which is huge in my eyes.  He was very thorough in explaining what to expect.  I am so pleased with my fan.  Some nights I am finding myself reaching for a blanket.  Scheduling was easy and they arrived on time. I am stoked that I made this investment.  Oh yeah!  When I move, I can take this fan with me.

Miguel was speedy to response. Came over the next day and fixed my outside receptacles. Very knowledgeable and efficient. Will do business again. Thanks!
