"Luis found a bad connection in a circuit that failed, replaced an outlet and a wall switch. He fixed a problem that actually had been building up for a year and a half after the last electrician did a dangerous hack and charged double. Very professional and kind. Highly recommend Fregoso Electric and will hire them again."

"I had spoken with Charles by phone and he had made suggestions for an appropriate transfer switch (6-circuit) and he suggested that I investigate Panasonic fans.  Panasonic fans have very good reviews online.  I purchased the parts myself.  Charles arrived on time with an apprentice (Russell).  I asked about installing a connection in our backyard for my generator to power the transfer switch.  Charles looked at our vaulted ceilings and property lines and concluded that the power line would need to be installed externally through a conduit.  It would not be easy to put the conduit underground because of existing concrete that blocks the way.  The conduit would need to be above ground along the base of the house and partially through a neighbor's yard, which would probably violate CC&Rs.  I decided against that, we will just use a long cord during emergencies.  We worked through identifying the six circuits to connect to the transfer switch.  He and Russell then installed the transfer switch and the bathroom fans.  When they finished the transfer switch, we connected the generator for an end-to-end test.  It started badly because the generator was running rough (I had never started it before).  Russell suggested that we open the choke, and it started running much better!  Everything was done in less time than I had expected in spite of the training that was being done.  Charles was doing most of the technical work and teaching Russell.  He was charging a flat rate, so taking time to teach was not an issue.  Russell was doing much of the carpentry work and did a very nice clean-up job.  They both were attentive and professional.  I would not hesitate to recommend them or to have them do additional work.

"Max responded quickly and was determined to get to my job even though it was getting late in the day. He repaired a fluttering ceiling light that he said was installed wrong and could have eventually caused a fire! He also was able to get the patio lights going again. He knows his electric business, is focused and professional. His fee seemed appropriate for what he got done. I highly recommend him."

"Roque was responsive and prompt in setting up service call. He very efficiently diagnosed the problem and advised about options to fix providing alternatives and prices. He wound up having to return twice because of a problem with the quality of a replacement component on the existing fixture. We wound up having to replace the fixtures (resulting in a third visit). Once we notified him that the new fixtures had been delivered he immediately went back out to install them at no extra charge even though the inability to repair the existing fixtures was due to a defective part and not his fault. He is friendly, highly responsive and very professional."

"Super professional and easy to contact and work with. They replaced a breaker panel, put my fridge on its own dedicated outlet, and also repaired two other outlets. Would hire them again! They answered all my questions, and after making cuts into the drywall to run cords, they made neat cuts so the drywall guy will have an easy time patching the holes. Kevin and Robert are the best and the price was right!"

"I got a few estimates to get more power out to my studio. Everyone quoted me about 4K to upgrade my panel and get dedicated line out to my studion. These guys were to only ones that looked for a better/more economical solution. I sent a pic of my panel and he remembered that I upgraded my kitchen a while back but noticed that my electric stove had it's own dedicated line. He asked me, did you convert to gas when you remodeled? I said yes and he said, great, we take the line that was dedicated to the stove and we use that. It saved me $1500 and it worked perfectly. I would absolutely hire again!"

"Having electrical issues to the point of calling SDG&E who sent a tech out immediately. Verdict: SDG&E was not the problem; the problem was in our panel. Appointment set, Jeremiah came right on time, made the diagnosis, gave us the options, and made the repairs within the hour. Jeremiah gave great information on the problem and the causes of the issue. Will use Mister Sparky in the future for any electrical issue."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Encinitas, CA

Always start by confirming the pro’s license number, insurance coverage, and experience level. Visit the electrician’s website, scan recent customer reviews, and verify credentials with your local labor department. Request proof of liability insurance and at least two references that you can contact. These quick checks take only a few minutes but go a long way toward ensuring safe, code-compliant work and protecting your home in the event of an issue.

Grouping several electrical jobs into one appointment means you pay a single service-call fee and one set of travel expenses. Instead of asking a pro to return three separate times for outlets, switches, and fixtures, have everything tackled in one visit. The electrician stays productive, and you avoid extra trip charges, often shaving a sizable chunk off the final bill without compromising quality.

DIY electrical work can be dangerous and, in many areas, illegal without a license. One miswired connection risks shocks, fires, or expensive damage. Licensed electricians carry the right tools, follow local code, and know how to shut down power safely before they start. Hiring a pro may cost more upfront, but it protects your home, family, and insurance coverage in the long run.
