Outstanding Electrician - True Professional…read more I had a major project to replace the electrical panel in my rental house. I'm very meticulous and like things done the right way, so I interviewed few electricians. None of them gave me the confidence I needed, until I contacted and met Chris. From the start, he answered all my questions patiently and thoroughly, explaining exactly how he would handle the project. I could tell immediately that he takes pride in doing things correctly and to code. Although I had to wait for him to fit my project into his schedule, it was absolutely worth it. When the job began, Chris and his crew, Ryan, Ramon and Diego arrived early every day, ready to work. They were professional, serious about their craft, and incredibly organized. As someone who knows a bit about electrical work myself, I truly appreciated the high quality of workmanship, precision, and care they all brought to the job. Chris didn't just oversee the project--he rolled up his sleeves and did the hands-on work, even mixing plaster/stucco to patch holes after the installation of the new panel. I didn't expect that level of detail, but he went above and beyond. By the time he finished, you couldn't even tell an old panel had been there. The end result was more than functional--it was Artful. All in all, I give Chris the highest rating possible. He exceeded my expectations in every way, and I'm proud to say he'll be my electrician for life. Again, thank you very much, Chris, Ryan, Ramon and Diego for your professionalism, craftsmanship, and integrity you brought to the job. Highly Recommend!!!!

Nick was the first to respond within minutes...at 8 o'clock at night! We FaceTimed him (after seeing all of his five star Yelp reviews) to show him our problem, and he gave immediate advice, which we followed. He said he would be out first thing in the morning. He was! We had to replace a few circuits that were fried and decided to do a full breaker box maintenance (to prevent this from happening again) because it probably hadn't been serviced...ever...in 25 years. Nick went far over and above expectations. He threw in upgrading a garage outlet while he was here and put in a whole house surge protector at a very discounted rate since we went with the full breaker box maintenance package. Our breaker box now looks and works like it is brand new. His work comes with a two year warranty! Nick was extremely personable and honest. I added him to my contacts because we will be contacting him with any future electrical issues. In short, there is a reason for all of the five star reviews, you will rate him with 5 stars as well when call him for service, I guarantee it!

I've known the Holly family since I was a young boy in the early 1950's. The first generation owner of Brea Electric, the late Frank Holly, was a highly principled man who was far more interested in doing quality work and treating people with respect than he ever was at making boatloads of money. His son, Don, not only mastered the trade his father had taught him, he also learned from his father how to treat his customers. Frank's grandson and Don's son, Richard, now the owner of the company, had the opportunity to learn not just from his father but also from his grandfather. All the training he received from them over those many years has without a doubt made Brea Electric a better company than it's ever been. Richard and his staff have consistently gone above and beyond to accommodate their customers' needs. Over the past 18 months, Brea Electric has installed a chandelier in our dining room, has replaced all of our plugs and light switches, and has upgraded the power panel in our 50-year-old house. In each instance, Richard stopped by afterwards to make sure everything was working properly and to see if we were pleased with the work his staff had performed. In each instance we were beyond pleased. You won't go wrong choosing Brea Electric to satisfy your electrical needs, be that residential, commercial, or industrial. Take it from someone who's known the Holly's and Brea Electric for over 55 years. read more

Outstanding! I have already recommended Brea Electric to probably a dozen people, and posted my great experience on Facebook. I had no clue who to call when I needed electrical repairs. I literally based my decision on the great reviews they have on Yelp. I couldn't have been happier. I've told people to mark this company down for future reference. One person even said they had heard great things. I confirmed as much. My home is over 40 years old. I've lived there for nearly 20 years. Things are wearing out, and repairs are hard on the budget. I HATE having people working in my home. Often, they don't respect the home or my time and comfort level. This was one of the best home repair experiences I have ever had. First of all, they were on time. In fact, they were a bit early. I LOVE that. I HATE waiting for people to show up. I have dogs. They get freaked out. Brea Electric was wonderful! Further, the pricing was less than I expected. Sometimes, you get the feeling that companies are looking for any reason to up the bill. This was just the opposite. They had to make a number of replacements. I was only charged the cost for two, and only for one hour of service. When a company treats its customers with respect and courtesy, they can earn your business for life. I will need more done in the future. They've got my business. And, I'll recommend them to anyone needed their service. read more

I meant to leave this review last week but keep forgetting, so I'm finally remembering to post it now! I was recommended by a friend to call Brea Electric. I called and spoke with a really kind, gentle, and welcoming woman on the phone. From the moment she answered, she spoke so highly of Brea Electric Company and genuinely seemed proud and grateful to work there. That immediately gave me confidence that I had called the right company. I needed to have some electrical done, and I wasn't even sure I was explaining my issue correctly. She was incredibly patient, listened carefully, answered my questions, and helped me schedule the work without making me feel rushed. They had a busy schedule but was able to get me in their schedule right away and complete the job. Now I know why they always have a busy schedule! I truly believe the first interaction says a lot about a company. When the person answering the phone is happy to help and genuinely takes pride in where they work, it reflects the company's culture. The technician that did the work was outstanding, too! I believe his name was Andrew. Based on my experience, I would absolutely recommend Brea Electric Company and will have this company on my speed dial. It may be a small company, but I can tell that these people puts so much love, care and pride of what they do, and that makes them a big company! read more

Very happy with Brea Electric and accommodating my work schedule to inspect my circuit breaker box. My insurance company was going to cancel our homeowner's insurance policy because they said our circuit breaker box had two many breakers/fuses. They said if I could get a licensed electrician to come out and inspect the box and write a letter stating it was safe, the policy wouldn't be cancelled. Brea Electric came out promptly and did a thorough inspection of the box and determined it was not overloaded at all, but was actually at 30% of capacity. They removed a quad box of unused breakers and labeled two others as being spares. Brea Electric then wrote a letter for me to submit to my insurance company stating the circuit breaker box was sound. And viola! My insurance company is no longer going to cancel our insurance policy. Happy and relieved! Thanks Richard Holly and the fabulous team at Brea Electric! read more

We have a 60 plus year old house that has had all sorts of issues. Brea electric has been our hero every time we have had trouble. Most recently we had an issue with some lighting and outlets which we didn't think much of. After speaking with their helpful front desk, the owner himself called us back within a few short hours. He quickly sent over a great electrician named Daniel, who worked tirelessly for hours and identified the issues we had. It turns out some work we had done previously by a different company caused all of our problems and could have potentially caused a fire. Daniel identified the problem and fixed it without being alarming. He also was willing to work on a few other problems we had without complaint. We shoveled a lot of stuff his way and he handled it graciously . Thanks Brea Electric! read more

I recently purchased a Jacuzzi for my home in La Habra. It was later determined that my panel would not handle the additional power. After contacting a few other companies and having them quote over the phone I contacted Rich at Brea Electric. Rich took the time to come out and look over the scope of work and give some insight to what he felt would be the best options. I would strongly suggest contacting Brea Electric for any Electrical work needed. They were very professional and worked with my schedule. Don't kill yourself looking for a contractor to do this type of work. Save yourself the effort and call the folks at BE. Tell them Frank Sent you! read more

I knew of Brea Electric's solid reputation on the commercial side of the business, so I was not sure if our smaller residential job would interest them or perhaps it would be too expensive. Our experience was fantastic! The crew was punctual and extremely professional; couteous and clean and quality work all around. I was most impressed when we received a follow-up call after the job was finished from the owner himself, Richard Holly, who wanted to ensure the job went well and met our standards. You just don't see that type of personalized service anymore. I highly recommend Brea Electric. Quality work. Great service. Fair price. read more

This owner generated response is a complete lie, so apparently this guy and his son are dishonest on top of being so arrogant and self-absorbed that something simple like "I'll be in a meeting from 8:30 to 9:30" doesn't matter and they think you should just drop everything when they call in the middle of your meeting. These guys are BULLIES to their potential customers and they think they can treat you like garbage because of insurance in CA. They will make it clear that they think they're in control and that gives them the right to lecture you, shame you, and just all around abuse you like they did to me. read more

Recently, I sent an email to Richard about outlets not working in my home and he sent out Danny to help diagnose the problem.

Some needed electrical work prompted my husband and I to call a number we saw on TV. An electrician came out, gave us a staggering estimate, and required a fee for his visit if we did not accept it. The next day I contacted Brea Electric and talked Laurie. She was friendly and went out of her way to be helpful. I found out Brea Electric does not charge for an estimate. Adam came over the next day, did an excellent job of repairing the problem, and charged a reasonable price, less than 1/3 of the other quote! I will definitely us Brea Electric again! read more
