"I have hired Carlos twice now for projects in my condo. The first time he was recommended by my realtor and my friend hired him to replace a panel in his condo. He was very pleased and said he was honest which is true. Carlos gave me two quotes for two different jobs. I needed to phase them so that it would fit in my budget. His quotes were very reasonable so I hired him for phase one which was to replace my kitchen and bathroom lights from fluorescents to recessed lighting. Not only did he do the install be he also did the drywall to patch the wholes. What licensed electrician would ever do that!? I hired him again for Phase two which was to install a ceiling fan, replace and reposition an existing ceiling fan and install a new overhead light in the spare room. Again, as promised he also did the patch work. I also had him replace me switches to more modern ones. Carlos is responsive, accommodating, knowledgeable and on time. I plan on hiring him in the future for more projects. I highly recommend him."

"Walter and his co-worker installed an outlet in our garage for an electric car. We received a quick response phone call to our request . Walter came to our home to assess the work that needed to be done and gave us an estimate. He promptly arrived a few days later to perform the work. We are pleased with the job performed by both Walter and his assistant. We highly recommend Mason Electric - friendly, professional and knowledgeable electricians. Thank you!"

"I needed to up grade a fixture in my kitchen from a track light to mini flush mounted LED recessed lights. They required a transformer and two other Electricians not only could not figure out the parts needed but could only do the job with the wiring on the wall instead of inside. Tony and Tony figures it out, went to get the necessary parts and are doing an excellent job for a fraction of the price quoted by the know- nothing guys. I am a happy camper"

"My house project was a trouble shooting on many outlets and lights that were not working, upgrading the electrical panel, rewiring and replacing ceiling fans, installing lights in new patio. At my business (Auto dealership). Replacing old lights, upgrading electrical panel, adding new light fixtures in lot, troubleshooting and repairing some faulty outlets and switches at the office. Francis does a very accurate and precise quality work. He keeps the jobsite clean that barely anybody notices he is working or repairing and installing fixtures. Needless to say he has a great personality toward his clients."

"Daniel and his colleague did a great job! Initially, they installed lighting fixtures, but then I decided to install recessed lighting instead. Before he returned to do another job, we discussed the kinds of fixtures and placement. His follow up and communication was great throughout. He completed the job and I was extremely satisfied with how it turned out. Am thinking of other jobs he can do! UPDATE 4/10/2019: This is the third time that I have hired Daniel. He is always the consummate professional. Very easy to work with. Will deliver exactly as promised and does excellent work. In addition to installing 6 recessed lights, he moved and installed a fan and replaced another fan in a different room."

"Got electrical needs? I strongly recommend that you call this company for a quote at least. Amit the owner and his crew are polite, professional and reliable. After other electricians were quoting me ridiculous prices to install under cabinet lighting, Amit stopped by, gave me a reasonable price and even performed my lighting installation that same day. Lights were working well until I found a faulty switch which had nothing to do with their installation. But Amit sent someone from his crew on another day and kindly fixed the problem switch, no charge. Thank you PHEC!"

"Adel and his team installed a flush-mount lighting fixture and three recessed LED lights with expert workmanship. In addition, Adel committed to and succeeded in solving a wiring issue that required attic and crawl space work. He maintained a positive, professional, can-do attitude the entire time, which put my mind at ease. He will be my go-to electrician moving forward."

"Had strange problem lost a set of lights and a couple kitchen outlets however other outlets in kitchen worked and other sets of lights worked? However Omar returned my Angi inquiry from the night before that morning and was able to come by early afternoon. He diagnosed the problem in this ancient house and was able to make the necessary repairs. We will use him again. Very satisfied with both Angi and The Weekend Project!!"

"Jerry was so great to work with! He showed up right when he said he would, made revisions to the estimate until we had the job outlined just right. I liked that Jerry took time out at every stage to explain what was happening and why (we were dealing with LADWP and city inspectors so I appreciated this). Jerry was neat and went the extra mile to get things done!"

"Andy was prompt, very nice, communicative, and got down to business. I was in a bind and he fixed the major issues in just a few hours. I am someone with very limited (thatâ s being generous) knowledge of IT and network wiring work, and Andy understood exactly what needed to be done despite my very lacking description. 10/10 will hire again for future IT needs."

"I couldn't be happier with the work provided by Dan Richards Electric. Dan and his crew were very professional, and provided me with exceptional service, troubleshooting and repairing my electrical issues. Dan Richards Electric, was reasonably priced. I was charged what I was quoted, there were no hidden charges. They were on time, addressed all my questions and concerns and went over and beyond to accommodate my schedule. I would recommend Dan Richards Electric to others, and I would definitely use them again!"

"John, the owner, not only knows his trade based on many years of experience but is also highly organized, detail oriented and clearly passionate about doing the best work he can deliver. We needed entirely updated lighting for a large subterranean garage using motion detectors to turn on the lights when needed. John specified the latest LED lighting fixtures, quoted us fair pricing for the materials and his labor, then did everything right the first time and as scheduled. We will use his company again as we continue to upgrade our apartment property in Santa Monica."

"Taylor was professional and creative with being able to minimize the holes he had to put in the wall since I live in a townhouse and my panel is 2 floors up from where the charger needed to be. He beat his estimated time and I'm happy with his work."

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician ArrivesLos Angeles Electricians are rated 4.9 out of 5 based on 1845 reviews of 1845 pros.
