This has a potential for a 5-star rating. The only reason I can't give the top rating was, I had to postpone the job before it started. A personal medical emergency required an unscheduled surgery. Prior to that, Rick did the work estimate online and finally on-site. We agreed to an estimated cost and length of work. Rick was very professional and prompt in his response. Even as I explained the job postponement until after my surgery and recovery, he was very understanding. Dawson Electric certainly earned my trust and patronage in all my future electrical needs. read more

Awesome service! 10/10 recommend! Came out on a Friday night and stayed until it was done!!

I scheduled an appointment with them for our microwave and garbage disposal.Eventhough we didn't get to work with them due to the problem being more mechanical than electrical but I appreciate their fast response and easy appointment and cancelation process.I will keep their contact for future project. read more

Rick installed fan and Chandeliers and did a great job with both the chandeliers and fan.

This company is listed as one of the Home Depot Pros. Stay away! He hooked up a ceiling fan for us and did a terrible job. He also didn't tell us that a ceiling fan shouldn't be on a dimmer. The fan and switch are now broken and we needed another set of electricians to come out and fix. Horrible experience. He also charged me more than the original amount quoted. When asked about it. He argued with me. Would not trust him or his employees to come out and fix anything even though Home Depot recommends. read more

Company came short noticed and replaced electrical outlet and fix an issue on the electrical box. Great job!

They came out on short notice and did a great job. They took care of my kitchen outlets

Rick charged me 1000 dollars for replacing 3 short wires. He finished it in 1 hour. It was a complete rip off. He charged me 1000 for 1 hour of work read more

Friendly. Responsive. Reliable. Takes care of the customer. Rick even swept the floor and cleaned up the mess. Satisfied customer. I would not hesitate to reach out to them again. read more

I found Dawson Electric through the homedepot pro referral. He got back to me right away! thank you for your quick response and service.

Called them in the morning and got an appointment confirmed that same day but never heard back

I came across this company on Yelp and they were able to help us out in a hurry and did good work!

I hired Dawson Electric through Home Depot's "Pro Referral" to "diagnose" a ceiling fan issue. The electrician was at my home for no more than 5 minutes. He stated I just needed to purchase a new ceiling fan and he would install it, although he didn't do a thorough diagnosis. I was charged roughly $300.00 for 5 minutes and did not get an answer. I hired someone else who was able to diagnose and resolve the issue. I would not recommend Dawson Electric. A complete waste of time and money! I would have had more success sending my money to a scammer overseas. read more

Restore our electricity outlets....came on time and very professional! Inside and outside of the house...

Dawson Electric came through big for me on Saturday. The power went out in my client's home Friday night. I called around and no one was available. I got ahold of Dawson Saturday. They immediately sent someone out. The quickly diagnoses the problem; old burnt wires. They replaced the wires and got the power restored promptly. Both my client and I were stoked. I'm using Dawson now for other client's electrical needs. read more

Not up front about pricing. They said they would put the service fee toward the repair. Then once they did the repair they said they never said that. My husband and I both heard them say it and my husband asked them again just to be clear. They adamantly denied saying it. They were so incredibly rude. We never give bad reviews. We just move on usually but this company was so awful. Do not lie to people and then yell at customers loud enough that their kids hear it from another room. The guy we dealt with said his name was Rick George. He would not give us the name of anyone above him that we could speak to. The guy who actually did the work was great though. He worked fast and was very polite. Do NOT trust this company. read more

I had a chandelier and LED switch installed in my home in California. They were extremely personable and professional. The best part about them is that they were super reliable. Instead of giving me a window of hours that they may come by they gave me a specific time and were there on the dot. I will use them again for other installs that I have planned in the future! read more

Awesome work. Repaired outdoor plugs and repaired fridge outlets. Professional and friendly service. Recommend.

Dawson Electric was the first company to respond to my inquiry to get three ceiling fans installed. LV did a fantastic job. All three fans are working wonderfully and best of all, they are not making any weird noises like the last fans I had did. 100% recommend this company due to their rapid response, quality work, and first class customer service. read more

They came down to repair an electrical short circuit by the kitchen outlet. They were fast to respond and come down to fix my issue. Will be using them again for future electrical repairs. read more

I live in Los Angeles. I was looking to coordinate an installation of a RING video door bell in Chula Vista, San Diego at my mothers house. I called Dawson Electric, and asked many questions over the phone, and explained my situation - that I was planning on driving to San Diego to be present with my mother who is a senior citizen while during the installation. Dawson Electric showed up on time and executed a perfect installation of the video doorbell I purchased for my mother's home. The price was competitive and fair. The job was done with excellent attention to detail. I would highly recommend Dawson Electric for your Video Doorbell installations! Thanks again Dawson Electric. http://dawsonelectricsandiego.com/ read more

Dawson electric came out and restored my power and I am very pleased with the service. Very quick and effective !

Pricing I can't compare since it's a first for me needing an electrician my rating is for fast response and of course quality of the job performed. Elrick diagnosed the problem and found the solution fast. Although he did not have the part required to replace he went out of his way to get it and fixed the problem the same night. I missed the military discount promo by one day but he still gave me a discount by not charging me for his overtime. I would recommend this company anytime. Out of 5 other electricians I called Dawson was the only one who was accommodating for what I deemed an emergency and a fire hazard. read more

I was charged $660 for a 2 minute easy job, I can understand it was Saturday afternoon but $660???

I wanted Rick from Dawson Electric to run an in ground spa light cable from the spa to the electrical panel. He said he could do it in about 1-2 hours. He showed up on the job late. He said he could do the work and assumed he new what he was doing. He pulled the cable in without using the electricians lube on the wires. The wire would come all the way out by the electrical panel. He then said before he would be back in the morning to finish the job. It would only take an hour he said. He asked for payment that day before he left. I knew right then and there something was wrong. I paid him and then in the morning he called me to say he had to pick up a product to finish the job and would charge me another 4 hours as a flat fee. He tried to change the pay structure from what we agreed upon. He was trying to charge me for him having to go to the store and buy what any good electrician should already have, electricians lube. So he was going to charge me all over again because he didn't do the job correctly in the first place. Rick is nothing but a crook. Don't use him unless you want to be charged more money. I called a good electrian and he did the job in less then one hour. Rick took four hours and was going to charge me 4 more for the next day. read more

A complete rip off....ladies be careful with this one....acted like he replaced wires in my breaker box but never turned the lights off in the home....gave 1 price during scheduling then more than doubled it to complete work. read more

Rick was exactly what you want in an Electrician. I needed pendant lights hung up in a bedroom and based on their great reviews I decided to go with Dawson Electric. Out of the many electricians I talked to, Rick was by far the most responsive and easiest to work with. He gave me a great quote with and was very clear with what he would be doing. He has great availability and when the job turned out to be much more complicated and longer than he expected, but he worked tirelessly to get it done. He continuously checked in with us throughout the project to make sure he was doing exactly what we wanted. It was clear that when I hired Rick he made our project a priority, caring about the workmen ship like it was his own house. Rick is now my go to guy for any electrical needs, glad we found him! I would recommend Rick to any of my friends looking for an Electrician. read more

Got my lights remodeled for my kitchen. Rick was nice and professional. Will come back for future home improvements.

My power went out in the kitchen and living room on a Sunday. Resetting the circuit breaker didn't resolve the problem. Called Dawson Electric and they came out the same day and identified and resolved the problem quickly. read more

This by far the worst company ever one , they wayyyyyyy over charge and second the part they replaced is used like a kid can tell it's used and customer service is bad. like I'm active duty navy I don't have time to baby sit and also over charge me just by changing one simple panel I highly recommend to go some else and save your money read more

They did a good job with fixing the electrical issue we had along with installing some lights on our patio. I would recommend their service to others! read more

Rick really knows his stuff. He was very flexible and was able to work at times that were convenient for me. He installed 8 recessed lights, 2 hanging pendants, and two ceiling fans. Results turned out great. read more

Dawson Electric - Electricians Near Me

Lost power to my garage and home office. They came after hours on a Saturday and delivered as promised. I had 10 other electrician and either ignore me or put me off 2-4 weeks. They understood my business needs since I'm working at home. Rick was great! read more

The rain short circuited two breakers. I called Dawson Electric the following morning and they were able to schedule a same day appointment. Tech was very knowledgeable and the whole repair took less than an hour. Great service. Highly recommend. read more

Rick was very quick to reply, very efficient. Job was done quickly, efficiently and professionally. I appreciate how quickly he did this! So glad to be done after waiting for another electrician who didn't finish the job! So glad I don't have to worry about this anymore!!! read more

Rick was first to respond when I requested a quote to multiple companies, provide an initial quote and stopped by shortly after. He demonstrated his trade meticulously ensuring the cause of the busted outlet was identified. You see, this outlet was replaced twice in two years with the previous electrician saying it was the outlet itself being the culprit. Come to find out, After Rick checked the entire line that an outdoor tree light was causing the short blowing the outlet. I'm grateful he took the time to check it all. read more

We had our fridge, microwave and a number of outlets go out on the Sunday of a holiday weekend, when we were expecting family over. Dawson Electric was a lifesaver! They were fast to respond and arrive, quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. Very professional. I would definitely recommend them and use them for any electrical needs in the future! read more

Great experience with Dawson Electric today. They were helping a neighbor and I asked if he had time to give me an estimate. Not only did he give me an estimate, he did the job right away too. read more

I found this amazing company on Yelp and truly appreciate the service. They replied in a timely manner and was able to book me right away. They showed up on time and went straight to work and the job was down quickly and efficiently. Thank you Dawson Electric for a professional experience! I would use their service again and recommend them to others. read more

I wish I had read the reviews before using them! They were referred through Home Depot's services and we thought that meant they were great. Wrong. They lied about their pricing and tried to make excuses about the fan "complexity" and size, despite being charged the top amount for the smallest fan with no complexity whatsoever. We asked if then the bigger fan we were originally going to also hang would then be the same price and he was like "well, it depends on the complexity." Even though we were told it would only be between a certain price range. Then they preceded to argue with us while we tried to understand this sudden change and they made it seem like we were crazy to ever think otherwise. They kept mentioning reasons why the price went up, then would back track on those reasons when we questioned it. I would NEVER recommend them and we will NEVER use them again. What a scam. The gentleman who installed the fan was amazing and incredibly nice and we would hire him alone if we could. DON'T TRUST ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU! read more
