Best Businesses in San Diego, CA

We had problems with both circuit breakers and a GFI plug.  We had lost all power to our pool systems!  Our call for help was returned and they arrived 5 minutes before the scheduled appointment time.  Both William and Dominic worked on our house.  Pool is now working!  Very nice team to work with and the cost was reasonable.

Eric's service FAR exceeded our expectations!! He came to install an electric car charger for us but we got so much more! While he was here we got talking about our air conditioning and he told us about how we could be saving money with SDG&E through their 'reduce your use' program where they upgrade you to a new programmable thermostat from Ecobee. He then offered to call them on our behalf to help us with what to say and set up the free appointment. He then told us about a down-light rebate program they also have which should help reduce our energy bill and gave us a free sample of the energy efficient globe we can claim the rebate on (where the rebate is more than the cost of the globe itself!). Then we got talking about the solar power package which we are soon to have installed, and he offered to look over the plans and the deal we were getting. He confirmed the company we were using was good and the panels high quality, and gave us guidance on how we could improve on the package by using micro-inverters over a central one. I called my solar company to find out more about this and my sales rep tried to talk me out of it and the information he was giving me didn't sound right... Eric offered to be on a call with us with them to advocate for us and he refused to take any money for his time, saying he just didn't want to see us getting ripped off. The guy was fantastic! He totally went above and beyond and we'll be using him for all our electricity needs from now on! VERY highly recommend!!

Man, Joe is a master at his trade.  Fast, professional and his work is perfect.  He makes sure that his work is completed meticulously.   Highly recommend.

Always dependable, always reasonable. They are very communicative, always telling you when they will arrive via call AND text. Always happy, professional
and talented.

Very helpful and good people. They are fair and honest. I recommend using this business.

We once again hired inception electric to install lighting on our garage.  It was done one time, on budget and the staff was super friendly to work with.  The installation was very high quality, they cleaned up all install debris and they tested everything before they left.  I would highly recomend them to anyone.

Very professional, on time and courteous! Great service, solved my problem. I would highly recommend Tradesman Electric , they provided superior service in a polite timely manner.

This was by far the best work I could have ever imagined! I asked around for quotes from many companies and not only were the prices far more reasonable but they passed every test I could give them as far as specs on wiring (after consulting an electrical engineer I had all the right questions to ask, most companies could not answer with the correct safety specs!)

Not only was the work done safely, thoughtfully and reasonably but it was more beautiful than anything I could have imagined. I had a blank slate and need to electrify a tiny house. They came up with a beautiful intricate wiring system that included dimmers and 3 way switches. The picture I attached sadly doesn't capture the beauty of the work that they did. There were multiple lights on different dimmers, a 3 way switch that could be controlled by the upstairs or downstairs switch, a dimmable retractable fan and multiple exterior lights. I couldn't be happier with the quality of work that they did. Thank you!

Rainer and his team have consistently provided solutions for DirecTV and ATT at many of the homes we manage. They are professional, thorough, and pleasant to work with. We initially called upon them when DirecTV corporate was unable to handle a slightly more than basic install. Since dealing with Rainer we have used them exclusively and avoided going through corporate. Since the switch, all installs have been no problem!

I have worked with Jim & crew for many years on various projects, always a pleasure.  He always gets what I want to do with lighting needs & comes through with wonderful results.  I have also purchased wonderful vintage fixtures & shades from him, always a changing inventory.

Tim charged me to come out and give an estimate on a Friday. $148 to be exact. I was given a quote for  $300 to fish a wire a few feet to the garbage disposal outlet/switch and one other outlet less than 2 feet away. I was desperate and tired of the problem so I gave him the go ahead. Plus who wants to pay $150 for a troubleshoot and estimate? He had to punch a hole in the wall to fish the wire over, which I asked him not to do. He then proceeded to tell me that in order to get power to my above-the-stove microwave, he'd have to run a dedicated line and tear up my (freshly painted) walls and ceiling, then gave me quote of  $900. I had previously had another electrician come out (free estimate) who said the same thing, only  he wouldn't tear up my walls and it would only cost $250 (DON'T TELL HIM WHAT ANYONE ELSE TELLS YOU, HE WILL EXPLOIT IT). I politely declined and paid him $450 to fish some wire to a few outlets. Total rip off.  

The next day I had Robert's Electric come out for an estimate. They also charge about $150 to troubleshoot and estimate. They fished the wire to my above-the-stove microwave outlet from an outlet he had fished power to the previous day for only $100 (so basically he could have just run the wire up to the other outlet a couple feet away). Problem solved.

Later that next day, I look under my sink and notice that there are wet paper towels in there where Tim had been working. Water is dripping from the hot water valve, all over my brand new cabinets and flooring. He must have noticed it was wet because he used the paper towels to clean it up! Only, he failed to mention it to me.

Another thing, he broke the (freshly painted) wall around every outlet/switch that he worked on and had to use spackle to fix it, and did so very haphazardly. You're an electrician and you cannot remove and replace a face plate without damaging walls?

Do yourself a favor, go to someone else. I wonder if those other reviews are even real.

Electric Unlimited has done a fantastic job for me.  As a Real Estate Broker, I am often asked for referrals for various trades.  I recommend Don and his company every time.  I had them do work on my home that included installing canned lights in the ceiling of my living room, repairing landscape spot lights, and running electric for a new fountain with a light on a timer.  Not only was the cost of the work very reasonable, but Don and his crew treated my home as if it were his own.  Don is a perfectionist and the work shows.  A true indication of a good job is that the work does not look like it was added but that is was done when the home was built.  Don was very good at explaining exactly what I was getting and differences on certain kinds of lights and costs.  They showed up on time and on budget and were excellent to work with.

This has been a frustrating experience.  

When the electrician, Dan, was here and completed the work, he wrote on the service contract that he had worked for 2 1/4 hours at $85 at the site.  I did not realize when I signed the service contract that the 1 hour at $125 per hour of driving was on top of this, I thought it was included in the 2 1/4 hours, since he was here for such a short time.  I should have questioned him more and had him spell it out on the form, since it is a very confusing form.  

When I received the invoice for the work it said 4 hours at $85. When I called the shop to ask them to explain the invoice, Hunter said that they do not charge for 1/4 hours only 1/2 hours, so I will automatically have to pay more because the worker had made an error in filling out the form.  But not to worry because they fired the guy because he kept making errors like this.  Hunters general attitude was whatever; just pay it, because we are right.  

We have used this firm before and when Chris, the owner, was the electrician everything was handled beautifully.  However now that the company has expanded, they do not seem to care about the client.  

The work was done satisfactory, but I would go over the service contract carefully and maybe even call the head office to go over it before the electrician leaves just to make sure they do not change things later.

Nick does excellent work!

He's responsive, friendly, professional, and does excellent work.

He did an awesome job installing my Tesla wall charger.

I can't recommend his work enough!

Extremely pleased - showed up in approximately one hour from my call, which is unheard of in my experience. Quickly fixed the issue and charged a very fair price. I would highly, highly recommend.

Would highly recommend this business. They did a fabulous job of piping lines through an attic, install ceiling fans and bring power out to a gazebo. All this on a very hot day but they never complained. They even put up with all my questions throughout the day. Anyone who could do that is awesome in my eyes.
-Knowledgeable

-Respectful

They will now be our go to team for all future electrical work.

Mauricio of Professional Electrical Services installed my EV charger. During the quoting process, I sent pics of my breaker box and garage setup to multiple electricians. Mauricio identified the best solution for me, avoiding the need to install a subpanel like other electricians were recommending. His expertise was clear. His price was also competitive so I went with him.

The official quote and invoice all came through a professional online portal that made everything clear, official, and easy to pay electronically.

On the day of service, Mauricio was at my house right on time. We finalized details of the plan and he went right to work. He was able to minimize interruption of electrical power to our house, allowing my wife and I to continue working from home. As an engineer and DIY'er I had questions and opinions about technical details. Mauricio seemed happy to explain and his explanations again demonstrated technical expertise.

The job was completed in 4 hrs or so and I am very happy with the result. The conduit and charger look very clean. Thank you Mauricio and PES!

Ryan was extremely punctual, professional and an overall good guy! He was efficient and took little to no time to fix our issue. Will do business again soon. Thank you!

What a rip-off! They charged over $400 to install a ceiling fan and an outlet. They were here for 2 hours (why it took even that long is another mystery since there were THREE guys here working) and 6 mins. but charged for full 3 hours. When I called them to inquire about the charges, they were flippant and uncooperative. And when I asked why a very similar job the year before cost under $200, I was told that I got a real good deal.  Seriously??
Never again! Buh-bye...
