"Electric vehicle charging station. I'd hire him again, but just gave 4 stars on value because electricians are expensive. His prices are probably fair, I'm just not used to San Diego pricing yet."

"CUSTOMERS BEWARE: Disorganized company, terrible communication, and worst of all the OWNER IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY. Find another local electrician! After a negative experience with the owner, Joe Casillas, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau on 9/24/2025. As of 10/2/2025, J Casillas Electric is yet to respond. Problem: The owner will not honor their word or written contract with the customer. We have a written contract with Joe Casillas Electric (JCE) for them to perform work on September 24th, 2025, however JCE has refused to do so. Proposed Resolution: To remedy the situation, I am simply asking for Joe Casillas Electric to complete the work that we agreed to, with the materials that we agreed to, and at the price that we agreed to. The details are expressed in a written agreement dating August 21st, 2025. The agreement stipulates that 1 inch conduit will be used and that the price is $1,350.

Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars – Honest, Skilled, and Solution-Oriented! After calling three different electricians who all told me the same thing — that they’d need to cut into two ceilings and it would cost me thousands — I was ready to give up. Thankfully, I found this electrician, and he was an absolute game-changer. He was the fourth and final person I called, and I’m so glad I did. Not only did he take the time to really assess the situation, but he found a creative and efficient solution that no one else had even mentioned. He snaked the wire through a vent — no ceiling cuts needed — and even went above and beyond by putting my washer and dryer on their own breaker. He fixed the electrical issue in my kitchen quickly and professionally (2 hours diagnosing on a Friday and 5 hours of work on a Sunday), all for a fraction of what others were quoting me. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing right by his clients and finding solutions that work for you, not just what's easiest."

"This was a very good experience ! Anthony replied first and he asked good questions. He arrived promptly ( I was happy to get this done today) He was very polite, asked questions regarding my preferences for the height and angle of the lanterns. He did an really good job and was very professional. I asked Anthony to take a quick look at something else which I thought we could schedule for another day. He checked it out, made a suggeation but was also able to correct the problem within a few minutes. I was very pleased and recommend him confidently."

"I worked with Obed on this project. He was friendly, responsive, and very professional. He helped me install a new circuit and outlet for an EV charger, along with some other light electrical work. His price was fair and competitive with other bids I received, and the work was completed timely and competently. I will reach out to him again for any electrical needs."

FAQs for electrical for home addition or remodel installation projects in San Diego, CA

There are several telltale signs that your home is due for an electrical upgrade. You may need to rewire your house if your lights are constantly flickering or your circuit breaker keeps tripping. If you feel mild electric shocks when you touch light switches, hear buzzing sounds, or notice burning smells, you may need to rewire your house, too. Discolored or burnt-looking switches and faceplates are another crucial warning sign. 

Properly installed copper wiring in a residential property can last as long as 50 to 100 years in some cases, but many homes over 30 years old are due for an upgrade. That’s the timeline that many experts recommend, even if it is only a partial update to accommodate technological advancements, increased power demands, and changing safety requirements. 

At $3 to $5 per square foot, the cost to wire a 2,000-square-foot house ranges from $6,000 to $10,000, on average. This can depend on many factors, like the age and complexity of the house and how easy it is for contractors to access the areas they need to get the job done. Opening and repairing walls can further add to your total cost.
