    Before Diego, we had no light above our dining room table.  But two hours after he installed everything beautifully, we got this! So happy!
    Neville K.

    Diego was the absolute best! I never imagined we'd be able to get a pendant hung above our dining room table just a few days before Christmas 2020, but Diego managed to finish the job in a quick, timely manner and scheduling with him was easy as can be, too. He was super responsive via text after we connected via YELP, and even showed up earlier than expected (which was perfect for our schedule as it allowed him to finish the job over our lunch break at home). We've worked with many electricians over the years but Diego was by far, above and beyond, the best we've dealt with in all of Los Angeles, period. He not only was the most responsive out of all the electricians we reached out to, but he was able to provide an approx. quote based on the pictures we texted him so we knew exactly what we were paying/getting into even before the day he showed up to install our new hanging pendant in our dining room. Before he arrived, it was but a flat ceiling... but within just 2 hours, he was able to hang this piece beautifully and perfectly (see pictures attached to the review), and did so with the utmost professionalism, attention to detail and positive attitude. On top of this, Diego wasn't just respectful, hard-working and focused, but he is also just a genuinely kind human being. We so appreciated the way he not only came in and did the work exceptionally well, but he also asked thoughtful questions when necessary and even shared a little bit about how the COVID-19 year had affected him personally as we were just conversing about how crazy 2020 had been. We really connected with him and in today's world, that's more important than ever! We definitely need more people in the electrician / home install / service industry like Diego, for sure. So please, if you're looking to hire a stellar electrician who also is a great person, all-around (and a veteran, serving our country when duty calls) then look no further and hire Diego. We will definitely be reaching out to him with our next home project that needs an electrician to complete the job. Thank you again, Diego! You really did an amazing job and we are so grateful. Hope you have a safe and happy holiday with your family!

    Loved he showed up with a mask. Diego was on time, completed the work perfectly. Cleaned up nicely.

I had an initial quote from a company charging about 1000 under Alex's price and in the interest of saving money I went with them. In the end the quote was not accurate and the contractor wanted 2000 more, this quote did not even include AFCI breakers at that price which Alex let me know were required for my job. Going with the cheapest quote was inaccurate, not up to code, and now costing me more. Alex spent his valuable Sunday evening to go over how I can resolve this billing dispute with the other contractor. I am sad I did not go with him, he was the most accurate quote, knowledgeable and said the extra work I was charged for was likely unnecessary. I really appreciate Alex taking the time and I am mad I did not go with him to complete my work.

    I'm so happy I found Ready Electric. I've managed our company's building and facilities for almost…read more20 years, and finding a reliable, honest electrician has always been difficult. JR was professional from the beginning. He arrived on time for the assessment, explained everything clearly, and provided a quote right away. When I had an issue with our original scheduled date, they were very flexible and worked with me to reschedule the job for an earlier day. They arrived on time, completed quality work, cleaned up after themselves, and were very easy to work with. Their pricing was also very competitive. Ready Electric is a great family business, and I truly appreciate their professionalism, flexibility, and help. I will definitely use them again and refer them to others.

    I had an emergency situation that ultimately called for a full panel upgrade. We scheduled a visit…read moreto check out the problem the next day, which was not an emergency inspection or anything. He came to check out the problem and give me a quote. Overall, he was thorough in explaining stuff. What rubbed me the wrong way was how after I asked him for a quote and told him I have one other person checking it out to give me a quote, his tone changed. I explained that this is an expensive project and it would be dumb to just get your price and go with it without checking with at least one other company. I'm not made out of money here. He then gave me the quote and it was literally like twice the range of most panel upgrades. I get that you're licensed, but so are most of these companies. I feel like because of my situation (Edison had cut the power to my place), he was just taking advantage. Admittedly, I was desperate to get it fixed, but I'm not going to pay almost 12k for something that costs around 5k. So he gives me the quote breakdown and four options (all way over average prices), and then I say thanks and that again, someone is also going to stop by and take a look and I'll text him either way. He then gave me a guilt trip about how they reserved the day for me and how it sucks that I'm not just taking the job. At that point, even if the second guy wasn't going to work out, I was not going with this company. Fortunately, the second guy (also licensed) that came was able to pull some strings and get everything done --meter checked, permitted--the next day for a fraction of what Ready Electric quoted me. Power is back on and I didn't spend more than I needed to. For those of you needing electric work: shop around. Oftentimes we need this kind of work done ASAP, but companies will definitely take advantage as was this case. 3 stars because they responded quick and did explain things thoroughly. Clarification based on Ready Electric's reply: The quote was $11,600 for a standard panel upgrade. Yes, my panel was in bad shape, but I was not misrepresenting the situation. If anything, to suggest that your most affordable option was $1k when it was really (according to you) not really an option at all (with zero warranty even) and to leave out your main recommendation (the panel upgrade) is misrepresentative. I credit you for going out of your way and explaining stuff, and I would imagine that as a business, that part of the getting business is time-consuming. Apparently there was an inspection fee that was waived, and the gentlemen that came even asked, "how did you get the inspection fee waived?" Well, no fee was ever mentioned upon calling and making an appointment, and had there been, I would have never made the appointment in the first place. You mentioned that you understand people would get a second opinion and that's good; however, the whole reason I wrote my review (which I rarely do) was because of the guilt trip I was given for doing so. It was unnecessary and a poor persuasion technique. If I were to have said I have another guy coming to get a second opinion and you were like, "absolutely, just let us know if you decide to move forward with us," I would have never wrote my review, or I would've written one that praised the thoroughness of your quoting process. Also, the guy I went with was a referral from my brother's current contractor, but he has never worked with any of us directly. So we didn't have an existing relationship or anything. In fact, when I told him what i was quoted, he laughed and said that's just people trying to take advantage. Again, the point of my review was ultimately to warn people to shop around and not go with the first quote you get, especially if you're in a pinch like I was. Another day without electricity is worth not getting ripped off.

    This review is long overdue…read more My husband and I bought our house in 2022 and the first things we wanted to do was install our car charger and have someone look at our old electric to figure out if we needed to prioritize upgrades. Primo was the third company we reached out to for estimates and we chose them off of good vibes and competitive prices. I'm grateful for it. These guys are solid, honest people and won't recommend things you don't need. In fact, if you have a wild idea for something that is unnecessary or costly, they'll tell you up front so you know in advance. In addition to doing things the right way, they're respectful. I've chatted with a few companies about various house projects and David and Jesse treated me (a woman) like my input matters just as much as my husband's. It signals competence, excellence, and professionalism when, even though I say "my husband is the boss," a contractor checks with me just in case. And, it prevents arguments down the road. We've rehired Primo for light fixture swaps, outlet adds, new switch fixtures, and we plan to hire them for our upcoming upgrades because they're all around good people who do good work. Primo is a business that you root for, and are proud to support as a customer. We'll continue to work with Primo on our electric needs for all of these reasons and more. Thanks, guys!

You guys are the best! I highly recommend them and will be calling on them for all my future electrical needs.
