I had an issue with flickering power in one room and thought it could be a fire hazard. I sent three requests for electricians to come take a look. One couldn't come out for almost two weeks, one never responded, and one was Flash Gordon Electric. Lonny from Flash Gordon was able to come out the next day. He is very friendly and personable. He tested several outlets and wires including fixing a couple of weirdly wired outlets. He also replaced half a dozen of the old (pre-1990) outlets including a couple outlets that were original to the 1970s when room was added. It was affordable and done in under two hours. Would definitely recommend them for future work. read more

Updating to 1 star after seeing Flash Gordon's response. The owner did exactly what he's claiming he didn't. Very dishonest and deceitful. By the way, I pride myself on fully honest reviews. Please avoid this company if you're seeing this. I don't usually give one star reviews, but Flash Gordon is a liar and seeing his response makes me very upset. read more

Lonny was great. I appreciated his response time when we lost power to one wall. Lonny traced the problem and repaired the problem to get us to full power. What we were charged was very reasonable, especially considering it was a Saturday. I will definitely call him again. Lise S. read more

Lonny is a great guy, extremely helpful with an amazingly great attitude. Couldn't give him a higher recommendation. Truly helpful.

The light in my bedroom was malfunctioning (unpredictable, flickering lights); and the remote that controls the lights, dimmer, etc. would not work, and not connect to the fixture. Gordon was available, prompt, and helped me out. It is functioning again without issue. I'm uber-impressed with his work. I have never needed an electrician before, but if I ever need one again, he will be my go-to. read more

Lonny was awesome! I would absolutely hire him again and honestly very likely will hire him for any and all future projects moving forward. He is exceptionally skilled in multiple crafts and charges a reasonable price. And, he's a nice guy! read more

I called Lonnie to remove and replace a rattling old bathroom exhaust fan. He responded immediately, stopped by the same day and picked up/installed a Whisper Quiet fan. This is my second time calling Lonnie, he is the best when it comes to electrical work, no BS, just great, clean efficient work and very reasonable pricing! The fan is so quiet , thanks Lonnie read more

Lonny came out the same day we called to check out our electrical plugs that stopped working. He gave us a very reasonable price estimate for the project. He was able to fix them and we were able to talk to him about our remodeling project. He's a really nice, honest guy, and did a great job. We will definitely call him for our other projects. read more

We got lucky when Lonny was available on short notice. He installed a ceiling light in the kitchen. The wiring is older and we weren't comfortable messing with it ourselves. Lonny was upfront with the cost, friendly, and helpful. We will call on him again with any future projects! read more

Had Lonnie install two bathroom fans. He is knowledgeable, quick, and does great work! I will definitely be using him again.

If you're looking for the best electrician in Burbank, stop looking and call him! Lonny is competitive, quick, insanely knowledgeable, and very VERY skilled. Anything from house fan installs to a full new construction electrical install. After meeting with 4 other local crooks, who arrived late, had little sense of personality, and basically said "I guess I could do it for X amount" if I signed a contract right away. Lonny showed up to restore my faith in local small businesses, and was incredibly fast. Him and his assistant did a full rewire job on my 1940's remodel. New panel, new romex, outlets, lights, switches, and everything else I could have ever thought of during the job. He knows all the local inspectors, does everything exactly by the book, and is truly gifted at problem solving and repairs. No job is too big or small, Flash Gordon Electric is the only call I make or refer people to when they want a reliable, affordable, and fast electrician. read more

Lonny is super personable and he really seems to know what he is doing. He is a Burbank native and I'm very happy to find a trustworthy technician with local knowledge about the way homes have been wired in the area. read more

Flash Gordon installed security cameras for my home. Service was amazing. arrived when he said he would did not charge for a quote. Price was great! would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an electrician. read more

They showed up on time and he was able to solve our electrical problem. Seems very reliable.

Lonny was awesome! We've used him a couple of times. Needed help installing a ceiling fan. He called to confirm and actually asked if he could come a little bit earlier. He showed up with his helper and took care of business. He's a Burbank guy that knows the area and the type of houses in the area. He's very knowledgeable and will be straight out with you and will NEVER try and charge you for unnecessary work. As far as pricing.......he is VERY reasonable. Thanks Lonny! read more

Awesome electrician! He has installed recessed lighting in our home, plus hung all of our lighting fixtures and they look great. He's also done troubleshooting to fix some other power issues we had. He's reliable and always answers calls and texts which we really appreciate! Highly recommend. read more

My 94 year old neighbor had circuits out and Lonny left another job (with the customer's consent) to go right over. What another firm (the ones on TV) wanted to charge $2,500 for, he did for $350. He was recommended by Burbank Electric (who I consider very highly) and my trust was rewarded. I have a new electrician! read more

We had a couple smaller electrical repairs and projects that we needed help with - a busted bathroom outlet, a new porch light installed due to faulty old wiring, and a new outlet for an electric dryer. Lonny was recommended by a competitor. I sent him a text and he responded that day. We set a time for him to come over the next week to see what needed to be done. Lonny came by and checked out all my projects. He let me know how much the repairs would be and about how long he thought they would take. He talked about the work required and estimated cost to add the additional outlet for the dryer, and we both agreed financially it didn't make sense for us - no pressure whatsoever to move forward. He also gave me some great advice on things we could do around the house on our own to help lower not only our electric bill but our our gas bill as well! On the actual day of the repairs, Lonny came by when he said he would with his associate Pete and they an excellent job. The outlet they replaced looked better than the original one that was there. The porch light installation took them longer than expected because the original light was installed in a really hack way, so they made sure to do it right this time. We were truly pleased with their help and the final results. With more projects on the horizon, I look forward to working with Lonny in the future! Highly recommended. read more

Lonny is great. He doesn't create work that doesn't need to be done. He's also fast. He was able to rewire half of the property and do patch work in one day. Once the dry wall had set he made it a point to come back to hang the light fixture. I strongly recommend Lonny and his team. read more

Lonny at Flash Gordon Electric was great! Helped us solve a tricky wiring problem and avoided having to replace entire panel. Would definitely call again for any future electrical needs read more

I can't say enough good things about Lonny. He was prompt, polite, always easy to get a hold of, and a super friendly guy. He's incredibly honest and really knows his stuff. If something doesn't need doing, he'll tell you and won't try and upsell the job. I'm thankful to have found him and won't hesitate to call him again for any electrical needs. Thanks Lonny! read more

Lonny was able to come out the same day to repair a light switch that stopped working. We also spoke about options and price quotes for some more complex work I would like to have done in the future. His price was fair, he was friendly and I will definitely be contacting him to do the additional work when I'm ready. I highly recommend him. read more

I needed an electrician to troubleshoot some outlet issues I was having. Namely that the outlets on one wall stopped working. I called on a Sunday in the middle of a rainstorm and was surprised when Lonnie actually answered - I had anticipated leaving a message. We chatted for some time to suss out the scope of the issue and he said he would reach out with a time he could make it during the week. He contacted me the next day and came out within a few mins. Found the problem quickly, fixed it, and charged a reasonable price. Highly recommend for your electric needs. read more

Love this company! Lonnie squeezed me into his busy schedule and fixed the problem. No power to the entire back of my house, he found the bad junction and tracked down the issue. Very nice man, showed up on time and great work ethics at a very fair price. Bravo Lonni! read more

Excellent electrician! I called for an outlet that was no longer functioning. Lonnie responded & made himself available to come by right away. He found the problem and had it fixed in a few minutes. It was a simple fix! I then showed him an older two prong outlet which he told me he could upgrade right then! He was fast, did awesome work and was a great price!! I will be calling him again for any electrical needs. I highly recommend this company! read more

I needed to up the juice one one of my outlets to run some fancy power tools. Problem was I wasn't entirely sure how much more juice I needed, I just knew that I need more. I consulted multiple electricians for a job and Lonny was the only one that actually asked really good questions about what my needs were. Came out promptly the next day, did the job, charged a very reasonable amount for said work, and stayed around long enough to check that it fulfilled my needs. Definitely a business card I'll be saving. read more

I have an old house , so over the years I have gone through quite a couple electricians. They are either super unreliable, over charge, or just do sloppy work. I had an outlet explode to where it melted the outlet plate and a previous electrician just changed out the outlet plate and said it's not a big deal, "for now", and that the outlet would hold. I asked him if he could just fix whatever needed to be fixed so I didn't have to worry about it and he said he was rushing to another job and that he would call me to reschedule. Of course, I never heard from him again and when I tried calling I never got a phone call back. I still felt nervous and I didn't feel comfortable with his decision at all. So I called Flash Gordon to come take a second look. He was kind and courteous and he came on time. Not only did he locate the problem, he explained to me what the issue was and what he was doing to fix it. He really made me feel at ease! I definitely will be calling him again, let's just hope I don't have to! :) read more

Extremely responsive and reasonable. He diagnosed my problem right away and was able to fix it the same day. I highly recommend Lonny and Flash Gordon Electric. read more

Lonny was able to fix the issue right away, Support our local

Lonny was recommended by another great electrician, Wayne at Burbank Electric, for some issues with our electrical panel. Lonny was prompt, responsive, and went above and beyond looking into our issue and giving us different options on how to proceed. We've got more projects lined up in the near future, and we'll be sure to give Lonny a call asap. read more

After being blown off by a previous electrician I was super happy when Lonny actually responded to my text. I was even happier when he could come out at the end of his work day for a quote. I had him out for the a job last Friday to do a few things (running speaker wire, removing an outlet and installing an outlet for a TV). The job wasn't an easy one but he handled it with professionalism and it was obvious he knows what he's doing. After 13 years of living in my house, I'm finally happy with the electrical in my den, woot! read more

I called these guys to do a job and then found out that problem was an easy fix. So I called to cancel and I can not tell you how awesome and helpful these folks were. They spent time with me to figure out the problem and were ready to come same day, and when I canceled - they were super gracious and helpful with tips and advice. Just good vibes all the way around - and I haven't even officially worked with them yet :) read more

My man, Lonnie! My preferred electrician and comes recommended by the Yelp community. Very fair pricing/knowledgeable person. He's upfront and sometimes comes across as a rude fella, but he will solve your problem. BIG PLUS: He takes Credit cards/without any additional fees. He fixed our outdoor lights, outdoor electrical socket, and also replaced our old recessed lights in the kitchen with LEDs. read more

We called Lonny for three issues which I'll address in my review: 1. Dead outdoor outlets -- Another electrician told us we needed to rip open our walls before he could even begin to assess what the problem might be. Lonny came and within 40 minutes had diagnosed the problem without reaching into his toolbag. 2. Wiring electricity to the fountain in our garden -- No problem for Lonny. The job required rewiring through our stone grill, but Lonny was both surgical and methodical, and the result is outstanding. 3. Buzzing overhead lights -- A delightful parting gift from the previous owner, we still can't figure this one out. Lonny said he needed to do some more research and get back to us. I skeptically assumed once we paid him, we'd never hear from him again, but he got back to us a week later and told us it might be a bad ballast that would need to be cut out and replaced. But he also was honest in saying that he was uncertain if that would fix our issue. He could have been dishonest and recommended just cutting our ceiling open ... then charging us on an on-going basis as he fumbled around trying to fix the problem. So we're 2 for 3, but we know we got honest, reliable service. read more

Lonnie is a great electrician. I had a handy man friend Who used to be an electrician try to figure out what was going on because it was some lights that were going off throughout the day and night and I could not figure out what was the problem. My handyman could not figure it out for the life of him and Lonnie found the problem the same day he came in. Nice stand up person, good electrician and has a warranty on his work. read more

Lonny helped us out with a list of things that needed to be addressed with our house purchase and fit us in to his busy schedule b/c we were on a short timeline. He was affordable but also very communicative about when he could be there and showed up when he said he would. Now that the inside is done I will definitely have him back for the stuff that needs to be done on the outside! read more

I was moving out of my apartment and needed some lighting fixtures changed. With such good Yelp reviews, I decided to call and get a quote for the work. Lonny answered right away, provided me with a reasonable quote, and was available that same day. We coordinated a time and he was punctual. He did the work quickly and stuck with the price he quoted me though one of the fixtures was a little more challenging to install than he anticipated based on our prior conversation. I was so pleased with his work that I gave him another lighting fixture to repair at his leisure. I would not hesitate to call Lonny again if I needed him; he was warm, friendly, skilled, and fair. Highly recommended! read more

I had a terrific experience with Flash Gordon Electric. I called because I need to upgrade my doorbell transformer but I could not find it. He text me with places to look so that I did not have to incur a service fee. Of course, I have one of those old houses where the transformer is in none of the usual places. I called them out a few days later and within an hour they had my new transformer rewired. They were kind, informative, tidy, gave a fair price, and they were a joy to talk to! I would hire again and certainly recommend them to anyone! read more
