Best Businesses in California

Reason for hiring: my nest thermostat wasn't powering up.

Reason for being upset:  Isaac took on a job that he did not have experience with (hvac system).

Outcome:  I paid $150 for an unresolved problem!

Solution:  walk away from jobs if you don't have the experience..it doesn't waste your time and the clients money!

Called and made an appointment and Tim arrived on time and fixed all my electrical issues. Great service

Russel was always prompt in responding and scheduling. Kwan the installer showed up on time and did a really nice job installing the Tesla Wall Connector. He also answered a lot of questions we had and even offered advice on maintenance.

Can't wait to plug my new Tesla in! Highly recommend EV Pros, no need to look elsewhere, fair prices and professional installs.

Paul was great about listening to what I was looking to do and then suggesting an alternative approach that was actually a much better option. I had wanted to have him install a manual transfer switch to connect a backup generator for my house. He suggested a manual interlock solution that gives me access to my entire electrical panel for the backup power instead of only 10 circuits in the transfer panel. Lower cost and less installation time. He came out right on schedule and completed the installation. Then he walked me through how to use the interlock and offered to provide any other help later. It was a great experience and I would definitely hire Service Calls Electric for future work.

Rudy is an excellent electrician.  He has done numerous jobs for us, rewiring a garage, putting in new electric outlets, upgrading electrical wiring that was funky, and trouble shooting an old duplex in Del Mar.  He is the best and I wish he had a twin who was a plumber!  He is friendly, helpful, and explains everything in plain English to the electrically challenged.  If you need a good electrician, hire him.

I have used Brite Electric several times in recent years, both for my work and home.  Tony, the owner, has always been very pleasant to work with.  He offers knowledgeable suggestions, does professional work, and completes project on time - all at a reasonable cost.  Recently I hired him to install a chandelier that weighs about 200 lb and goes up to 20 ft ceiling.  He spent a whole day on the job and made sure it was done properly.  It turned to be a beautiful addition to my home, and my wife and I are very happy with the quality of work.

In the past,  I have not had great luck with electricians.   Recently, Jason from Service Rite came to our place and installed LED lighting under my kitchen cabinets and replaced some switches.   He installed two Panasonic Whisper fans in my bathroom with new switches.    He was professional, courteous, punctual and did a great job.   I highly recommend him and this company.

Laguna Electric came through again! This is the second time I've used Laguna Electric for electrical problems that I was having. The first time was for my backyard fountain that all of a sudden stopped working. And this time, it was for my front yard fountain that stopped working because the timer was bad. Both times, Laguna Electric not only diagnosed the immediate issue, but they also traced the root of the problem so that other issues didn't come up in the future. Lucian and his team have the intellectual curiosity to do this extra step which, I as a homeowner, appreciate more than I can articulate.  I have dealt with countless electricians in my experience as a homeowner and as someone who has done many renovations to homes in the past. These guys are the real deal and for an affordable rate. Thank you Laguna Electric!!

This is the second time I have used Dave and his crew. I was hoping the first time was not an anomaly. My wife got one of those new jet engine hair dryers that were tripping the breaker all the time. So I called RK for help. Dave came in to size up the job - even took the time to understand the problem so that he could provide an appropriate solution. He quoted the job then took the time to explains the job very clearly so there is no misunderstanding it was almost a college level tutorial on basic electronics.  His crew came in and got the job done, cleans up and very professional. As long as he is in business he will have my business for life. ...I highly recommend RK

My wife and I were in the middle of a remodel and had bee using another handyman service. The job turned out to be too much for one crew and I called Gunner to help finish up the project. I started to give him  more work when I saw the quality of his work  and professionalism . Very good all around knowledge. We contracted Gunner for some electrical work and ended up having hime finish our garage with drywall, texture and paint. Will be using Anthem again soon on another project. Have already recommended him to my neighbors.

We had an outlet making a crackling noise and sparking so we were really concerned about an electrical fire. He came out over the weekend and was quick, efficient, reliable, and had fair prices. We will be using him again any time we have electrical issues in the future!

I highly recommend Tapia Electric. Jorge was super responsive, super knowledgeable, and he fixed the problem in no time. Thank you! I will definitely work with Jorge again in the future!

I drilled into a wall and hit an outlet box on the other side.  I called Martin Electric and they were very prompt, efficient and friendly.   They were able to get out to my place quickly and fixed the problem with no issues.  The owner, Bill, was very friendly and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We had Dr. Electric do work for us years back and they had done such a great job I decided to call them back when we needed a few things fixed at our new house. While they were out here fixing a few issues with outlets and switches I found out they also mount TV's.
They did an awesome job mounting the TV, great mount, ran the cables through the walls even hung some shelves for us for the components. The TV looks great and I am so glad we used them!
I must also point out there extreme attention to detail. Todd said he like to treat each job like it was his house, and it is obvious. They are very clean, very thorough, and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them for any of your electrical or AV needs.
5 Stars across the board!!!

Jeff came in on Halloween day as Superman.( well, not literally) While 2 previous electricians totally created a mess without solving my electrical problems,Jeff was able to problem solve and complete everything to a successful outcome. There is no one more knowledgeable and honest.

Just had two chandeliers installed by Mustafa. Very friendly and accommodating person with a bright personality. He showed up early and completed the job to my satisfaction. I had inquired from 4 other companies but CET had the best price by a land slide! Quotes I got were $1500-$1880 for the project, but only paid $812 with CET Electric. Very competitive. They will continue to earn my business in my future projects!

Sometimes you get lucky. There aren't huge numbers of reviews but I took a chance and called to compare his estimate for my described work and while the rates are comparable to other electricians, I liked Stuart's forthright answers. We calendared a time and date for an appointment. He asked for pictures of some fixtures and switches so good indicators too.  He was prompt, did great work and listened when we walked through the house. His questions helped me make good decisions when there were options.  His company is a hidden gem in Coronado where most of his work occurs but it is worth getting him to cross that bridge.

Recently got an electric vehicle and needed a NEMA 14-50 outlet to be installed. My car manufacturer had a list of electricians recommended to me. I called and spoke to a bunch of them; and did not get a good feeling about them. Then I spoke with Mary over at Ms. Sparky electric and she was very straightforward; made the whole process extremely easy. If you are getting an electric vehicle of any kind and need a 14-50 outlet installed with little to no hassle, give them a call!

So, to give everyone an update regarding the most UNPROFESSIONAL Effective Electric business and its owner Ernesto in getting a job done that was requested on December 15, 2015, I contacted another electrical company. The agent/electrician showed up on time as promised, evaluated the problem and promised to come back in an hour. The electrician called me exactly in an hour and stated that he has found an appliance that will take the place of the old broken one. IT TOOK THIS GUY AN HOUR TO FIND A NEW PART and Fixed the electrical problem that we have on the same day versus Effective Electric/Ernesto that took 3 months and no result.  Effective Electric and Ernesto the owner - made us wait for 4-5 hours and DO NOT SHOW UP/NOT EVEN A PHONE CALL - on 4 Different occasions/Appointments. Effective Electric or Ernesto keeps on saying that he cannot find the parts/unit for our exhaust fan for 3 months. NO call from Ernesto as to whether he will show up and finish the job. Beware also of American Home Shield Warranty Home Insurance - Ernesto and AHS are in cahoots.  DO NOT HIRE EFFECTIVE ELECTRIC.
