About a year ago, they came out and installed NEMA plugs for my Leaf. Price was great but not sure about workmanship. I wasn't totally impressed. I ended up redoing some of their work. I asked them for a receipt and they never email me one. Communication was also hit and miss. I think you get what you paid for. Use them with caution. read more

Follow up to my past review...been trying to contact Brandon for several months and finally left a detailed message about the problem regarding his electrical install....he said he guaranteed his work...but still no call back...no nothing....to me that is not professional and his guarantee is not true.....everytime I turn on a switch he installed....it makes sparks...so I am scared to turn them on...might cause a fire? I've been trying to contact him to fix this issue....but why he does not return a call on something so important? read more

I'm giving this company 1 star because of poor customer service. My husband called for an estimate in the morning. They asked him to email them with what work he'd like to have done. He did that right away and they didn't call or reply via email until 5 days later. He asked what time to come and my husband told him to call him back and didn't called until 4 the next day. It was too late. My husband got estimates from others who were eager to get his business. read more

While I like to think that there are many projects around the house that I am capable of doing, I will not do electrical projects because of the potential risk of serious injury or death when one doesn't know what he's doing. In the past, I've always used the same electrician, who has always provided excellent service. So when I bought three Minka-Aire ceiling fans and needed them installed, it was only logical for me to call the same electrician. While he agreed to do the project, he never responded to my request for a bid. While I like the electrician, I don't like him enough to hand him a blank check. So my wife found Guardian Electric on Yelp. I was hesitant to use an electrician that I knew nothing about, but agreed to meet with Brandon (the owner) for a free estimate. Ultimately, Brandon was the cheapest of three electricians we received bids from, so we elected to go with him. Besides, he works on weekends which works out best for my wife an me. We are very happy and pleased with Brandon's work, and Guardian Electric has now become our "normal" electrician. Since we were having three ceiling fans installed, two in the same room, each fan had to be programmed to a different frequency so none of them interferred with the others. Anyone who has bought a Minka-Aire fan knows how poorly some of its instructional manuals are written. While the manual described the process for changing the frequency on the switch by changing the positions of the dip switches, it did not explain how to program the receiver to the corresponding frequency. And since Brandon came on a Saturday, Minka-Aire's technical support was not open. He agreed to come back Monday morning and call technical support to solve the problem. AND HE DID THIS WITHOUT CHARGING US. Brandon came on Monday and called technical support. It turns out that the steps for programming the receiver to recognize the frequency on which the switch is involves a specific sequence of pushing the buttons on the switch. Of course, it would have made too much sense for Minka-Aire to have described that sequence in its manual. Fortunately, someone in technical support walked Brandon through the process, and he successfully programmed all three fans. In summary, we really liked Brandon because he responded to our request for a bid in a timely manner, charged a reasonable price, did good work, and had enough pride to follow through when he had trouble setting the frequencies. The fact that he did not charge for the second visit, which was necessitated through no fault of his own, shows how much integrity he has. read more

Brandon and Aaron have fixed deficient circuit breakers for us in two different houses. They're always friendly and able to check out various little problems during the visit. I'm considering installing a new ceiling fan in the master and some lighting in a dark living room... it's always a pleasure to see these guys. read more

Hired Brandon last year for two ceiling fan installs and gave him an excellent review. Hired him recently for two more installs...He ruined one ceiling fixture box in the bedroom because of the amount of drilling he did and nearly gave up on hanging the second (it was a Hunter brand nothing exotic). Wow what a difference a year makes. I'm utterly dismayed and have to hire another electrician to fix this mess! read more

All around stand up guy. Brandon was fast and efficient. He went above the call of duty in an effort to diagnose the issue. He completed the task when three other companies had failed. Highly recommend him. read more

These guys were awesome! Came out a few hours after I called. Class act and out to do the job right. Charged me actual price for parts and were great to interact with. The next time I need work done, I'm definitely calling them again! Great to finally leave a good review on Yelp! read more

i found Guardian Electric on yelp. read the reviews & then phoned. Brandon answered, said he would come out later that day (Good Fri) but then phoned back to reschedule as he was behind...we agreed on Sat. am. but, the Sat. appt. came & went with Brandon not showing up or phoning. 2 calls to his # did not generate a return call. now, its Mon. & the 2 gfi's are still out. this is not a professional way to run a business. i live in a senior gated community & thought i might have found an electrician that i could recommend to neighbors....i was wrong. i'm very disappointed that he would be so cavalier treating customers. read more

Great, honest service. Gave me different options which included not even having to change anything. Would highly recommend this company.

Best electrical help I've ever had. They fixed my pool light switch wiring in less than 1/2 hour. Super friendly and efficient.

Brandon has always been reliable, professional and always goes above and beyond the call of duty. Stellar man, stellar service! Thanks for all you do, Brandon! read more

I refered a client of mine to Gaurdian Electric and it was not a mistake. Brandon was prompt with his response and very competitive with his pricing. The work was performed was impeccable. My client was thouroughly happy, as a result I wouldn't hesitate to refer business to Gaurdian Electric in the future! read more

I own a commercial maintenance company in Sacramento and many projects require a sub contractor. When I was unable to get a return call from my normal electrician, I called Guardian Electric. I spoke with Brandon who was very busy. But he came out that early evening and diagnosed a problem I could not even get bids from other electricians for. And his price was super reasonable. I also had him bypass a light on control panel at another property and he did a great job at a super price. I will use Guardian from now on. read more

I've used Brandon at Guardian Electrics three times now and each time he has exceeded my expectations. He always calls first, texts, and emails, is extremely responsive and professional, though no job is too small, like when he came over just to change out a patio light and vanities in the bathroom. His pricing is more than fair and he will show you his receipts for parts from home depot (he doesn't mark up parts...wish I could say the same for my plumber!) Too bad I can't hire him for my sprinkler system, plumbing or other jobs around the house! read more

I'm giving Guardian Electric (Brandon) a well deserved FIVE STAR rating. He is very knowledgeable, professional, honest and friendly. Once we explained the issue we were having at our home, he was quick to find the root of the problem right away and fix it very quickly as well. The whole customer service experience was great from the time we made the call to the completion of the work. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone and would be very confident to call him any time the need for an electrician arises. Awesome job! read more
