We were having some electrical issues and found 1-Step Up Electric on Yelp . They had great reviews and they did not disappoint! They came out on a Sunday and even showed up a little early...that in itself was a shock! Fong was very personable and verified our problems. He got right to work. He fixed our issues with ease and completed the work within an hour. If you want a quick and professional job, use 1-Step Up Electric!!! read more

The comedy duo of Mike and Alex from 1-Step Up spent all day with us at our recently purchased cabin in the woods, performed some tough requests which included very tight crawlspace work, identified issues we may want to address in the future, and charged a very reasonable price. Very pleasant, friendly guys who knew their stuff. Highly recommended. read more

We recently completed a complete re-wiring of our 95-year old home in South Redlands. From the first consultation until the final inspection, Ed and his crew kept us informed of every detail on each piece of work as it was completed. He secured the necessary permits to get the work started quickly, and hired out a fantastic dry wall specialist to complete the repairs. They answered all of our questions quickly and courteously, and the work was perfect. The crew showed up on time each day, and cleaned up thoroughly each day before leaving. Another plus is that Ed accepted credit cards for payment, which meant we were able to finance the payments on our own terms. We'd highly recommend them for any job. read more

Wow! Called 1-Step Up Electric and spoke with Ed. He completely helped with my electrical crisis on the same day I called. The two that arrived were great, professional and of course knew their job and solved my crisis immediately. My recommendation, Call 1-Step Up Electric FIRST, you will not be sorry or disappointed by their response or work. In fact I am so pleased they're coming out for a non electrical crisis next week. Today,I will start recommend them from now on. Thanks again Ed. Byron read more

I called 1-Step Up Electric due to raving reviews on Yelp and I couldn't have made a better decision. I needed 2 ceiling fans installed along with pulling new wiring for both. When I called, they called right back, showed up on time, very professional, and fast workers. Mike and Alex were extremely knowledgeable and told me everything along the way. The covered/protected all my furniture and vacuumed when they were done. They completed in the time frame I was quoted and charged me the cost I was quoted. Ceiling fans are working great! I would highly recommend 1-Step Up Electric!! read more

Our house needed extensive electrical work completed-right and on time. I called 1 Step Up and they came right out, explained what was required, and the price to complete the job. Excellent work and we are extremely satisfied. Highly recommended. Jack read more

I'm super happy with the installation of my new lamp! I bought it in St. Augustine, Florida from a Moroccan shop. It came with adapters for the light bulbs, but it didn't come with either a power cord or the pieces to connect it to the ceiling. They assured me a good electrician could take care of it for me. I chose 1-Step Up because of the good Yelp reviews and I agree with them. They looked at what I had, explained my options, went to buy the pieces that were needed that weren't standard things they had, checked in with me every time there was a decision to be made, and pleasantly changed something when I changed my mind about something. Thanks so much for the great work! read more

Ed is a stand up individual. He always arrived on time and completed quality work. I would highly recommend him and his company as they have yet to let me down. I have had multiple projects done at multiple locations, all professional work according to code. read more

Had an appt for 8:30 am. At 9:30, they still hadn't arrived so I called. "Sorry, running behind, be there in an hour". Still not here at 11:00 do I cancelled them. I understand running behind on an earlier job, but I cannot deal with the lack of communication. Just take the initiative and call me when you're late. Won't call them again. read more

The company installed a kitchen light for me. They were friendly, professional, and got the job done in a timely manner. Top notch crew arrived not just a single person. I would recommend for jobs that require an electrical professional. read more

The entire crew did an awesome job! They communicated as well as being on time each day for the job. The crew was polite and professional. Thanks, you guys rock! read more

I don't know how this company got 5 Stars. I called them after seeing the reviews and made the appointment. Did not show up and just waisted my time. read more

Ed and his team are awesome! Professional,great prices and the turn around time from the phone call to the finish was really impressed. Thank you ED and team. Recommended if you want a great job done! read more

Ed and his team were a dream to work with. They did a great job with re-wiring, adding a new breaker box, and putting new outlets in our 1901 home. They were always ahead of schedule and always had a smile on their face when coming to work early in the morning. Tony and Alex were the main ones at our house doing the re-wire and they were fantastic. Ed always checked in with us everyday to make sure everything was done to our liking. We can't thank them enough for the wonderful job they did! read more

Bought our first EV (electric vehicle) car and needed a 240 40 amp line installed. Ed came out and quoted a fair price. He was one that followed up and came through to the end. One of his electricians, Tony did a great installation of the unit. I would recommend them for any electrical work. Professional and clean. And they do what they say. read more

Called to make an appointment and was able to schedule with 7 days. Mike and Johnnie were professional and installed my video flood lights in the front and back of the house. They were professional and completed the job in about 1 hour. Cost for installation was reasonable. I would recommend. read more

Our house was built in 1952 and still had the original breaker panel. When several of the breaker switches came loose from the panel during an attempt to flip it, we knew it was time to get a new breaker panel. We contacted Ed from 1-Step Up Electric for an estimate and he was prompt and professional and offered us a very fair price. He was clear about what we needed and he even made a suggestion that saved us money. When they came out to do the job, Ed and his assistant got it installed in a few hours and the result was outstanding. I highly recommend 1-step up Electric for your electrical needs in the Redlands/Loma Linda area. read more

I've used these guys twice for two different home projects and both experiences were fantastic. Ed (owner) is always timely with communication and follows through and what he says he's going to do for the work. Both times they showed up on time and completed the projects in less time than anticipated. Ed's prices were competitive as well. I will definitely use them again when I have the need for an electrician. read more

I have been involved in many construction projects and hired many different electricians and these guys are by far the best I have ever worked with. They are always on time, professional, clean and know what they are doing. I still don't know how they were able to rewire my entire house with such minor patches to the walls. Great electricians highly recommend! read more

1-Step Up Electric really is as good as it gets. We moved to Redlands CA in early 2016 and had several electrical projects on tap for the new house. Ed and his crew do a great job, they are dependable, and always great to work with. We had several challenging projects and they stepped up to the task and we can't be happier with the work they did. They have replaced electrical outlets, installed recessed lighting, installed ceiling fans, and installed under cabinet lighting in the kitchen. We love the new look of our home. Prices are reasonable, too. Those were home enhancements, and they have also helped us out troubleshooting electrical issues that needed to be fixed. 1-Step Up Electric is our go-to vendor for all things electric. read more

We called 1 step up to finish up some electrical that never got buttoned up from a remodel. The estimate was fair, and the timing was faster than I could have hoped. I called on a Friday and the job was scheduled and finished on Monday. We were so happy with Phongs work, we called back and had 1 step up install 2 more lights today. Tony did a great job. I would recommend these guys to anyone needing electrical work done, big or small. read more

We were so very glad we called 1-step up Electric. Ed and his team did a fabulous job replacing all the outlets at our very old house and getting all of them functioning and up to code. They also repaired an installed light that another electrician had done incorrectly. We only wish we had used them to install the light in the first place! Very reasonable rates and friendly, quick service. Highly recommend! read more

Ed and his crew did an excellent job at my house installing a subpanel for my Hot tub. One of his guys Phong did a great job in planning out the project as well. I appreciate their help. Truly an honest and dependable group. I will plan on using them again for any other electrical work at my house and highly recommend them. They are very professional. Thank you for the work!!! read more

Another fantastic experience with Ed and his crew! Our guesthouse wiring needed some repairs due to safety concerns. Ed was super responsive and was able to come out to evaluate the situation and propose a solution that included adding some circuits. He came out to our house on the same day that I called and fit our repairs into the schedule the same week. Phong and Johnnie provided excellent workmanship and were once again punctual, professional, and polite. You can be certain that this company has become my go-to for electrical services. Thanks for another high quality experience, guys! read more

Prompt, friendly and meets customer's convenience. Use their service twice in the past month for a few improvements in the second house in Redlands. The whole experience felt like working with your family members (in a good way). Would definitely recommend them to anyone. read more

We got a new hot tub and needed a dedicated circuit and new outlet put in. Called for a quote and Ed and Tony went out of their way to get it done the same day we called. They did a great job and got it hooked up quickly and correctly so we know it's safe. The price was very reasonable. Will definitely be using again! read more

Hired 1Step to recommend solution for a circuit breaker resetting when using hair dryer. After 2 hours @$75 per hour, suggested that a smaller hair dryer be purchased. While here, asked for an estimate to wire a dedicated 240v circuit into the garage. Since one full month has gone by, guess doesn't want the job? read more

Make sure you do your back work before calling.. They charged me $95 to basically tell me that my light fixture was broken. If you don't know what the issue is make sure you find out first because they are more than happy to just look at your issue and charge you the full service fee. read more

I contacted 1 Step-up electric after contacting 2 other electricians as the wife and I were trying to find the best pricing on the jobs we had planned. I am so glad I called Ed and had I known how much better his pricing was compared to the other guys we called, I would have started and ended my calls with 1 Step-up. I called Ed and we arranged for him to come out and give us a free estimate. He showed up on time and was very professional in his appearance and in how he conducted himself. We walked through our house, I explained what I wanted done, and he made recommendations based on what I said we wanted; he even suggested changing a layout of some can lights we wanted to better maximize the lighting in our living room while cutting our cost! He gave us our estimate verbally and then emailed it to us as well. As I said before, his estimate was well below his competition and since his reviews here were so well, we went with him. We made our appointment and his guys showed up right on time. The first day, Ed showed up right on time with his guys Michael and his son Michael (Big Mike and Little Mike as I referred to them.) Ed and I walked through the house again to see if anything had changed and then the guys got to work. Ed had another job to check on but made frequent stops to check on how progress was going. A third guy, Phong, stopped by to help for a few hours and then went to his next job. The next day (yeah, big job with lots to do) Phong and Little Mike were back with an assist from Big Mike about halfway through the day and finished installing our lights. They wired in the switches and dimmers we supplied and even trouble shot some shoddy existing wiring from before we bought the house. The third day Ed's dry wall guy and his son came and did their magic. Holy cow, you'd never know there were epic holes that needed patching. These guys were the icing on the cake. Our home looks so much better and now we can get rid of our Ikea floor lamps since our can lights and ceiling fans look fantastic and give such amazing light. Thanks so much guys! I won't hesitate to call Ed and his crew again. read more

Not knowing anything about electrical work I was worried about calling someone to come and look at our problem (didn't want to get scammed). No worries with 1-Step Up Electric. They came out diagnosed the problem fixed it. I paid the reasonable service charge and now don't have to worry about the electrical problem that was in my daughters room! He fixed the problem in less than 30 minutes, thank you! read more

I called Ed based on a recommendation from a neighborhood app. I was a bit hesitant as I had tried contacting 4 other electricians who either didn't show or didn't return my call. Ed responded quickly and sent someone out to do the job. I had a problem with a GFI plug in the kitchen, we thought it was fixed on the first visit, but a couple days later it went out. Someone came out again and spent quite a while trying to figure out the problem. Turns out it was sloppy work from a contractor I had doing remodel work recently. I figured it would cost me a small fortune but Ed did not charge me for this 2nd visit. I was so relieved and grateful. I will definitely call Ed again for any electrical work. read more

Owner Ed communicated clearly via email re estimate, time of arrival, and work to be done. Our home had been vacant for two years, so updating fixtures, replacing outlets and checking the wiring was essential. All work was completed in a timely and friendly manner the same week it was requested. Very nice to work with...a great company that we highly recommend for a variety of electrical needs! read more

I tried to contact several electricians about a pendant light and old wiring in my house which I wanted removed. No one seemed interested until I contacted 1-Step Up Electric. I was able to speak with Ed and he came out promptly on a Saturday morning to talk thru what I wanted. That eventually led to a fairly involved job that lasted two weeks. I have dealt with a lot of contractors in the 25 years I have been working on my old house. This company is among the best I have ever worked with. Ed is competent, easy going, and trustworthy. He knows his trade. He does a great job at a reasonable price. He kept me informed of what was going on during the job. They did the job and we worked thru problems that always come with working on an old house. They are local. Highly recommended. No reservations. read more

Eddie and his team were awesome! Having a breaker constantly go out can be not only nerve wrecking but unsafe. Every summer since I bought my older home this was a problem. My electrical panel was really old and I know it needed to be replaced. Being unsure of who to trust a FB friend refered Eddie. Eddie came out and gave me a good estimate and by the next week I had a new electrical panel. I already hired him again to fix a outside plug. Eddie is someone I would refer forsure! read more

Late post. Had service done on my house in the first weeks of October. They're very quick and do an amazing job. Called them for two jobs and both times i received quick and excellent service. Will definitely be using there services again. The pricing is reasonable and I highly recommend them. read more

Ed was great - excellent turn around time on his appointment and quick to rectify our electrical issues. He found issues we weren't aware of and very helpful and suggested ways to remedy the issues safely. Highly recommend! read more

Ed really came through, came late in the day and got the job done right before a big party. Same day service, was a really big help

If you're looking for an electrician you can trust and who will be fair and reasonable - and goes above and beyond to get your job done - 1-STEP UP ELECTRICAL is the answer for any electrical problems you may have. Eddie Verdugo and his team replaced my whole house electrical panel today and I could not be happier! His crew is knowledgable, courteous, clean and friendly. They cleaned up their work area better than it was before they arrived :) I had a very serious problem going on (a meltdown!) and Eddie and his team took care of it perfectly! Now I have some other projects I'm eager to have 1-STEP UP do sooner than later! I rate 1-STEP UP IS #1 in my book! read more

1-Step Up Electric did a fantastic job. I got a couple bids for a panel replacement. 1-Step Up was the better price. They gave me a quote on the same day I requested and made adjustments as requested by my realtor. They communicated clearly all the way through the process. They showed up when they said they would, let me know what to expect and finished ahead of schedule. I was so pleased with the job they did on the panel that I had them fix some other electrical problems I had. They did the work on the 4th of July to get me taken care of on the schedule I needed for my home sale. I will absolutely use them again the next time I need an electrician! Also, all the guys who worked on my house were friendly and relaxed while being professional and extremely competent. read more

I used this Electrician for the first time at my house. I thought his price was high compared to other electricians I've used. When he arrived at my house he did not take his boots off and tracked dirt and mud into my house. He was able to find the source of the problem, but since he left I'm having other electrical issues. I will not be calling him anymore. read more
