Long version: Romo took almost 2 months to complete my project of replacing the subpanel, adding a 20 amp circuit, and repairing any damaged drywall. He and his team cancelled/ no showed on my tenant more than 5 times and was super unresponsive when scheduling. My tenant had to live in a home with holes in the walls for almost a full month before it was finally repaired. The business operates very shadily. I have asked for a receipt for my payment numerous times, and he still has not provided one. I had to pay him in 3 separate transactions via zelle because his bank kept rejecting my payments. I'm not sure how this business has a 4.8 rating on Yelp, but will not be trusting those reviews from now on.

When we ran into equipment constraints related to my older electrical panel, Mike offered thoughtful options and worked within the panel's safety limits rather than immediately pushing an expensive upgrade. Nate, Jeffrey, and Brock completed the installation.

They completed the job ahead of schedule, thoroughly tested every circuit to make sure everything was working properly, and left the work area clean. Their workmanship and attention to detail gave us complete confidence that the job was done right. We also want to thank Mike for referring us to Tommy for the drywall repair. Tommy's estimate was also lower than another drywall contractor we contacted. He was professional, respectful, did an excellent job repairing the wall, and cleaned up so well that you would never know such a major repair had been done. From start to finish, the entire experience exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Service Pro Electrical for electrical work and truly appreciate Mike's recommendation of Tommy for the drywall repair.

The staff let me know I could browse around at my leisure and to let them know if I had any questions. After looking at a few, I inquired about the pricing and found them a good value. Yeah, some were out of my budget, but I also found some that were in my range and very nice. Mark was extremely helpful in getting my order placed, and his recommendation of using Electric Green to install the light was a great choice. I know I'll be back when I'm redoing some other fixtures around the house, and can't wait to see what really cool items they have to show me. So if you're decorating a dorm room, this probably isn't the place. If you're decorating a home, though, you owe it to yourself to check this place out.

I recently had the opportunity to work with Dwelling Electric, a veteran-owned company based in San Diego, and was very satisfied with their service. Jeff, the owner and electrician, handled the repairs on a faulty GFCI outlet and restored power to parts of my house that had been problematic. From the initial contact, the professionalism and dedication to customer service were apparent. Jeff was punctual and arrived as scheduled, demonstrating a thorough understanding of the electrical issues at hand. He explained the necessary repairs clearly, which helped me feel confident in the solutions provided. The quality of work was commendable. Jeff efficiently resolved the electrical problems and ensured everything was safe and compliant with current standards. His attention to detail and pride in his work were evident in the results. Overall, I would recommend Dwelling Electric for electrical needs. Jeff's commitment to high-quality service and customer care make this company a reliable choice in the San Diego area. Thank you, Jeff, for your excellent work! read more

Jeff is courteous, knowledgeable, fair, and does excellent work. I have had him perform electrical work at my house on two separate occasions and wouldn't hesitate to call him again if needed.

We had two security cameras (with motion sensors) that needed to be hard wired from a non outlet location. Others quoted me $150-300+ more than David did. I was skeptical of his estimate as others kept telling me there's no way any one could do the job for under a certain amount. David showed up RIGHT ON TIME. I showed him the areas and he went right to work. No fuss, no complaints. I didn't feel the need to check on his work as I trusted he would notify me of any issues (which he did once when he showed me an area he had to cut differently due to wall studs). The cameras were installed cleanly and looks professional! I was even more impressed that he thoroughly cleaned up each area (with a vacuum i think too) when he was finished. I had asked for a landscape lighting repair quote and he diagnosed it pretty much for free (I'm hiring him to come back to replace quite a few broken lights). We hired him to come back to install recessed lighting and a ceiling fan in a ceiling that had no outlets/wires. His prices are really so reasonable. He also worked on our landscape lights that had not worked in so many years. The entire job took almost all day and he worked tirelessly. He did leave for a lunch break but came back. I am in love with the recessed lighting and kicking myself for not having it done sooner. The room is brighter and feels so much more alive. The night/mood feature of lights is sooo cool with the almost sunset orange. I am so thankful to have found this company and owner. It was a breath of fresh air to meet someone this honest and humble with his quotes and work. 100% recommend reaching out to him to speak to him about any electrical issues!
