Best Businesses in San Diego, CA

Update: To clarify, the faceplate and other mishaps were fixed (somewhat reluctantly)  once I called them to Daniel's attention.

Darrell is an honest man. He told me what to check before he came, so that I could fix the plumbing problem myself if it was easy. It ended up that the problem was what he suggested.

He wouldn't even take a tip for his recommendation.  I recommend go fix it to anyone

Leave it to the professionals!  Recently started doing some upgrades to my home.  In our bathroom, there is a fan and light controlled by one switch and we wanted them separated out so we didn't always have to have the fan running when we turned on the light.  Seemed simple enough; buy the switch, install and... poof!  No light, no fan and even no power to some of the outlets.  Okay, took another look at the wiring and tried it again.  Nothing!

I'm definitely not the type of person who gives up on things, but on the other hand, some things are just better left to the professionals.  I began calling local electricians and mostly what I heard was our next appointment is in two weeks...  I called Ocean Electric and left a message.  Within a few minutes I got a text from John letting me know to call whenever I had a chance.  I called him right back and explained what happened.  Unlike all the others who told me it was essentially impossible to get someone the same day let alone the same week, John told me he was almost finished with another job and would be out to my home in about an hour!  I thought this must be too good to believe but sure enough, John and his work partner showed up and went right to work.

They are both very professional and within a minute or two they had diagnosed the problem.  Unfortunately, the bathroom wasn't wired for a dual switch.  They offered to put the old switch back and that would be the end of it or if I was okay with it, they would drill a few holes, run some additional wire and make it work with the two switch.  I really wanted the dual switch but it was going to require drilling possibly up to five holes.  Again, I really wanted the dual switch so I told John to go ahead.  I was able to return to my work while they went ahead with the repairs.  In all, I think it might have taken them an hour and it when it was all over, the dual switch was working perfectly!  

But not only that, through John's expertise, he managed to only drill one hole to run the new wire.  But to be honest, I don't know if it really would have mattered had he drilled more holes.  They are absolute professionals and did an amazing patch job of the hole they made and cleaned up entirely after they were finished.  I've had other electrical work performed where they had to cut dry wall and those people did NOT do any type of patch work or repair of the dry wall.  John doesn't just throw up a patch; he really does an amazing job that almost looks like nothing at all was done to the wall!  

I feel VERY fortunate to have come across John and without question, for ANY electrical work I ever need done, he will be the first person I will call.  He and his work partner were VERY professional and friendly.  They are very knowledgeable, thorough and quick.  If you are EVER in need of an electrician, I really can't recommend them enough.  Don't even call anyone else for a quote.  Just go straight to John and you won't be disappointed.  Thanks again John for helping me out today and responding so quickly!

Good company. Reliable and responsive, professional work.

AMAZING workers...love that they left my house cleaner then they found it. Professional all the way...no questions unanswered.  
Thank you Olinger Electric

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.

I'm no expert but I know a thing or two about (basic) wiring. Tried my hand at ceiling fans this weekend and ran into a snag on the last one. As a do-it-yourselfer I swallowed my pride and made the call to see how much the damage would be to have someone do it for me. Most of the work was done and he (I'm sorry I didn't catch his name) gave me a fair price to come finish up. But as we talked he understood what it was I needed to do and TALKED ME THROUGH IT!! I can't imagine many companies taking the time to explain wiring over the phone when the option to just show up and do it for you-charging and arm and a leg meanwhile- is there. I'm very pleased with the customer support and without a doubt, I now have an electrician go to. Thank you so much for your help! I would've spent hours in my attic scratching my head trying to figure out what I was doing wrong!!

Eddie and his helper are awesome, and price most reasonable.  I had him replace my outside lamp on my house that looks great.  Thanks again, Eddie!

We hired Final Touch to remodel our old popcorn ceiling.  Carlos impressed me when he come to do estimate.  We do not wear our shoes in the house - everyone wears a pair of slippers and our hardwood floors are mobbed clean every week.  The other two contractors we invited to do estimate just walk right in with their dirty boots.  Carlos left his boots outside even though I told him that's fine with us.  Very attentive at the first sight!

One of the other two contractor looked at our ceiling and said - the existing recessed light is black trim inside and he will have to replace it to make it consistent with their new ones with white trim.  Of course there will be additional charge for that.  Carlos, after examine our kitchen and told me that our kitchen is small and the current acoustic ceiling is not exactly at the center of the kitchen, therefore, if we were to keep the recessed area and put crown molding and 4 new recessed lighting's in it, the whole ceiling will be very cramped.  Instead, he suggest us to make the whole kitchen ceiling flush (remove the recessed ceiling) and put the new recessed lights close to the edge.  This arrangement will provide more light to the counter.  I like people who can speak out on behalf of the project, not on behalf of their own profits.

The estimated prices turned out to be cheaper.  Oh, by the way, Carlos can put in the new recessed lighting house in black trim to match our existing recessed lighting.  Of course Carlos get our job.

On the appointed date, Carlos showed up on time.  When they started taping up and covering everything with plastic cloth, again, they took off their boots!  I told them once they finished taping and covering they must wear their boot while working - it's for their protection.  They finished the job quickly and they clean up thoroughly.  Our kitchen looked really nice and full of lights now!

In summary, I would wholeheartedly recommend Final Touch since they have clearly demonstrated traits that I appreciated: (1) care for details and (2) true professional suggestions on behalf of the project at hand.

Jesus was very professional, honest, and courteous. He took the time to listen to what we needed done. When the job was completed, it exceeded our expectations. The work was done right, and the price was competitive. I would highly recommend Alex Lopez Electric to anyone looking for a great electrician.

They came today and provided Amazing service and super honest with everything we needed. He fixed the problem immediately. Very knowledgeable and I highly recommend this company. Will be using them for any electrical needs and will definitely be recommending to friends and neighbors.

We called Laurence for outdoor electrical problem
He did great job so we called him again when we had another problem. He responded promptly for
urgent problem. He is knowledgeable and polite.
We keep his phone number handy.

Last saturday, some of my outlets suddenly loss power where my TV was connected to.  Had a big party planned.  Called Hi Power Electric, George and his son came out within 20minutes.  Super fast response.  He got my power outlets up and running within 45minutes being there.  I found George to be honest and thorough.  I definitely will use George again for upcoming repair based on this great experience.

We had an appointment set up today and he never showed up. We had understood he was running behind, agreed to wait home but it's now 6:30pm and we've called a few times with no response and or communication. If unable to do a job, communication would have been greatly appreciated as we could have found someone else to come out today and not delayed even more. Also not waste the day at home and taken time off to be available for nothing. Very disappointing

Didn't even get to hire them because they never responded with an estimate even though they said they would. They asked for pictures and I provided it, and they saw read my follow up message but never responded.

I had an urgent outlet issues in my kitchen that needed to be address, and Collier was able to come 2 hours after we connected. I really appreciated how fast, professional, and personable the help was.

Robert was truly a great find on Yelp. After calling a few contractors on Yelp, only to get a voicemail, I called Robert and was pleasantly surprised he actually answered his phone.

From the start he was courteous, knowledgeable and punctual, he was actually 10 minutes early for our first meeting. I hired him to do a remodel on a small bathroom in my condo, as well as a few other needed repairs. The results were amazing, he definitely exceeded my expectations.
 Robert really goes the extra mile, he is honest, reliable and great at anticipating one's needs with attention to detail. He even left my place clean after the job was finished. I would happily and highly recommend Robert to anyone in need of home repairs. I definitely will use his services again without hesitation. Call him; you'll be glad you did!

John showed up on time and did a great job converting my dryer plug into another room. Very friendly as well. I'd highly recommend him.
