Best Outlet Repair in San Diego CA

Kelley is absolutely fantastic. We have had her come out to our home multiple times now with three full days worth of work and repairs. She is timely, has great attention to details, an excellent quick communicator, and just overall does such a stellar job. She also thoroughly follows Covid guidelines which was very important to us. In terms of work she hung numerous pieces of art & curtain rods for us, installed floating shelves, did trim repair work, installed pendant & can lights, handled caulk and grout work, fixed tiles, fixed jammed cabinets, etc. She really does it all! You will not regret hiring Kelley for your home repair needs. She will always be the go to for us. Highly recommend!!!

Needed to replace my tub faucet, he came out after hours to fix it.
I highly recommend him

As a specialty fertilizer distributor, moving our warehouse, we needed an electrician to hook up our production machinery and an HVAC tech to come out.  I called Ideal and spoke to a nice woman who created an appointment for us.  I was called back several minutes later, where she proceeded to cancel our appointment. When asked why, she referenced a word in our business name, hydroponic, that the owner believed was associated with medical marijuana.  We are a fertilizer company that sells fertilizer, that's it.  We are distributed nationally, we've been around for 6 years, we volunteer with local schools to teach kids how to grow food in an urban, indoor, environment. The judgment that took place to discriminate against us is ridiculous.  I have no idea if Ideal does a good job or not, but I do know they are quick to judge.

When You Find a Great Handyman, Cling to Him Like Glue!

The door which connects the garage to the house is a Pre-hung, fire rated, self-dampening/closing hinges, heavy duty steel exterior door. It has retracting hinges which if you let the door go, it closes by itself. This door was out of alignment long time ago. The do it yourselfer that I am, I have fixed it & made it work; therefore, extended its life by 5 years. Lately the lock stopped functioning & I replaced it but it would not lock! I kept on messing with it, adjust it, readjust it and even moving around the latch but it would simply not want to lock. Then I noticed that the bottom hinge just like before, is completely out, so that is why it is not aligning & it has nothing to do with the lock! So as before, I took the hinge off, shoved some wood & glue in the 3 worn off screw holes and re-screwed the hinge back tight but it still would not lock; morely, now it would get stuck & not even completely shut!

I finally gave up because the man must know his limitation. There is a thin line between do it yourself & screwing up the job! As I had extended the life of this door by 5 years & this turn around, it would not work, I just decided to replace the complete door. So, I called Alejandro Alvizuri which is now my choice of handyman and I told him to come & replace the door.

Alvizuri was dead busy but he managed to shove me somewhere in between his appointments. He rushed over, checked the door & told me, why do you want to spend a lot of money to replace this door? This is a perfectly fine door, a very expensive door. Let's first try to align it and adjust the lock. To think of it, I looked at the door & said, yeh, there is nothing wrong with this door! You see, Alvizuri could simply replace the door & make much more money but he is a type of guy which would always try to fix things before replacing. He is a straight forward, honest man which knows what the hell he is doing.

Since my last review, Alvizuri had learned much more handyman tricks & techniques. As I have mentioned in my last review, he is a school teacher turned handyman to keep his sanity from the educational system! Even though he loves teaching but he wanted to be his own boss, have his own schedule & work on his own terms. He fixed his own house, neighbors' houses & the next thing you know, he become a professional handyman! According to Alvizuri, since he become a handyman, he is happier, calmer & his mental health is even better!

Alvizuri is a lovable man, courteous, big smile, funny & he knows what the hell he is doing; so, he will not screw up your house! I told him about his last name's history & had a scholarly chat with him.

Alvizuri = Al (The) + Vizuri (Good) = The Good

Which I prefer to call him that because he is really a good man. His name is a Spanish word, originally Arabic from the Golden Age of the Arab Caliphate Colonialism, went to West Africa & mixed with the Swahili language & from there to Morocco and Spain, when Arabo-Muslims conquered Spain. That is why a 3rd of the Spanish words are Arabic & Arabic rooted. Alvizuri is originally Hispanic & Peruvian but the originality of his name is Arabic. Now you may ask, how the hell do I know all this? Because I am a historian & a linguist amongst other things!

Alvizuri kindly shoved me in between his busy schedule & returned for a 2nd time to align the door & adjust the lock. I watched him work, so I could learn something from him. I always watch contractors work. A day you haven't learned a new is a day wasted! I noticed that Alvizuri is now even more detail oriented. He used long nails, not too long to wear out the screw holes & not too short to not make the door stable. After a neat alignment of the door & adjustment of the lock, finally he made it work & saved me big money.

Alvizuri said, let me give you a friendly advice, next time, do not mess things so bad that my job would become harder to fix it! Alvizuri is a funny guy, every time I see him, we have fun chatting about everything & laughing off during the time he does the job.

Alejandro Alvizuri is a decent, honest, humorous, courteous, knowledgeable, punctual, reasonable, hardworking handyman. Do you need anything else in a contractor? Do I know how to pick my contractors or do I know how to pick them?! I have just made your lives easier by finding you a fabulous handyman! Hire him now & you can thank me later! Yes, when You Find a Great Handyman, Cling to it like glue!

I have heard that Point Loma Electric is good and therefore have recommended them for years. I finally needed their services and made an afternoon appointment. I received and automated call informing me that they were still tied up at other jobs but would still be coming.

At 3:45 PM I called and was told that they could not come after all. I would need to reschedule. This is with lights out and no electricity to most of my home. I was disappointed with this customer service and more disappointed that the lady on the phone seemed to just want to inform me of their inability to come out as planned and then say goodbye. I didn't feel any kind of sympathy for my situation.

I called another company that same afternoon (Green Electric) and they came within the hour. Great service and a pleasure to work with.

Farhad helped us with installing a new fan, installing a new patio light fixture, and fixing a very tricky microwave re-venting. He did a great job and ended up staying late to make sure the microwave vent was done properly, which we really appreciated. Very reasonable prices, and we will definitely reach out again when we have more jobs we need help with!

Very helpful and responsive to messages! Did a great job removing our satellite dish from the second story eves. Great communication. Recommended.
