"Ali was very helpful and nice. He diagnosed the problem with my 3 recessed hallway lights, repaired along with an outlet in living room. He discovered that the switches were old and blown, replaced them and all is working great! I will use him in the future."

"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."

"This was/is a big project--rewiring the kitchen, family room, and garage in a 60-YO house to bring it up to current codes. From the office to the electricians and their helpers, everyone was extremely professional, good about communicating, and able to handle every issue and concern with ease, keeping to both the budge and the timeline. I would not hesitate to call them again for other electrical projects."

"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."

"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!"

"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."

"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."

"Jacob arrived in less than 30 minutes. You can't get any faster than that. He diagnosed problems with 4 ceiling fans, repaired the ones that were repairable, and installed a light switch all in about 2 hours. He is an expert on ceiling fans and advised me on what to tell the manufacturer for the warranty claims on the fans that could not be repaired. We will hire him again to install the warranty replacement fans and any other electrical work we need. He's top notch."

"The two men arrived on time, were friendly and very professional. They installed my light fixtures quickly and efficiently. The customer service at ADI electrical is very responsive and proactive. They confirmed my appointment via phone and email prior to arriving. The men also helped resolve another minor electrical problem without an additional charge. The overall cost for the project was less than two other competitors I contacted. We asked for their business card and will contact them again if we need further electrical services. I would highly recommend them."

"Top operator. These guys are awesome. Thank you Home Advisor for recommending JGA-E as they had the highest rating on here and they provided the best bid on my townhome electrical project. They are reasonably priced and provide a very high quality service. They installed premium recessed lights throughout my home, installed a hanging light and outdoor rooftop light fixtures, and designed/installed a very complicated custom internal laundry which required an increased power supply (sub panel) and custom wiring/venting. Jonathon and his team went above and beyond the scope of work to complete my project and they completely patched up my ceiling and walls so that you can’t tell they were even here. I am a very happy and satisfied customer. Thank you to Jonathon, Eric, Ben and Dean. Fantastic job, all!!"

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 ArrivesSherman Oaks Electricians are rated 4.9 out of 5 based on 1249 reviews of 1249 pros.
