Very rude, then didn't show up or call. 2 hours later I get a text saying he's not coming. Didn't offer to reschedule, which was probably wise on his part at that point... read more

Eric gave me advice on the phone prior to coming out and it helped me solved my outlet issue. He saved me a electrician visit even though he did not have to. I would definitely be calling him for all future electrical needs if he's already this honest and helpful. read more

We hired this company for several small repairs and they were wonderful! Flexible with us as well as on time. We will continue to use them if any electrical needs are needed ! read more

Great communication from start to finish. Came out quickly and was able to install 2 new outlets quickly and at a good price. Quality work all the way around. I highly recommend Jaco Electric and Eric! If I need any other electrical done... They will be my first call. read more

I found Jaco through recommendations on Nextdoor and checked them on Yelp. This local, family owned business is awesome. I called Eric who fit me in quickly so I could get a chandelier installed before a gals' party. He came with his brother Chris, they did the work quickly, and the price was a bit less than estimated. The medallion I bought to go with the lamp had some small cracks us to the way it was shipped. Eric put some filler over them so my husband can sand a little and paint over them, rather than send it back and delay the completion of the project. I literally did a dance when I saw the chandelier! Their questions and observations reminded me of some other issues that needed to be addressed. They will be coming back in two weeks to fix those. I could not be more pleased with their work! read more

Eric and team were excellent! Prompt response with a reasonable quote for recessed lighting + drywall. The work was scheduled right away, which was a major plus. Eric and I discussed his recommendations upon arrival for the amount of cans in my very small place, and decided on five-- 4''. I was reluctant, but it FAR surpassed my expectations. They also patched and completed drywall that looks really great. It completely changed my space!! He also, talked me through other electrical needs in my home, and he provided a quote too. I would confidently recommend JaCo Electric to anyone. read more

Amazing fast work that looks great! On time and stayed within quote. I would highly recommend Eric:)

Nice to find an electrician that is reliable, knowledgeable, efficient and fair. I definitely will use him again and highly recommend him. read more

Eric was super awesome to come over and help us out with a variety of issues. I got a quote from someone else we had used in the past and when my husband heard it, he was outraged and searched out Eric for a 2nd opinion. His quote was much more reasonable and he was able to help us out. He installed an electric charger in our garage, two new plugs, fix our breaker issue where my hair blow dryer refused to stay on, and diagnose our stairwell lights that kept burning out. Whew! We will definitely call him next time. read more

I had the pleasure of hiring Eric to come knock out a number of electrical needs at my home. He reconditioned our panel, installed two new exterior wall lights with new electrical service, trenched in some landscape lighting etc... Everything was done quickly even during the Holidays and he was a pleasure to get to know. Finding an honest person who cares about their workmanship and treats your home as if it is their own is hard to find. Eric is that man. He will be working with me for years to come. Aaron S.

Eric came out immediately to help with an electrical problem. Upon arriving and checking things out, Eric noticed it could be a power line problem, having to deal with the City of Anaheim. Sure enough neighbors came out and confirmed that they too were without power. From the start, Eric was a stand up guy, didn't try to take us for any money, and didn't even charge us for coming out and checking things out. We definitely will be using him for any future electrical work and appreciate his honesty in doing business. read more

Great job! Installed our tesla charger no problem! Great job In and out within a couple hours honest and reliable! Thanks! read more

Eric was timely, quick and reasonably priced. He did a great job and I'll definitely be using him again!

I'm so glad I came on yelp to find an electrician! I rarely write reviews but I'm so pleased with Eric's service that I had to! Eric was the first person I called for an electrical issue which left us without power in our restrooms and stopped the garage door from working. Although Eric said he was booked for the day, due to the urgency of the work I needed he ended up moving around some of his appointments so that he could come take a look. That's just really going above and beyond in my opinion! We set a time and I asked him to let me know when he would be leaving the job he was currently at. He remembered to do this and even ended up arriving a bit earlier which was nice. Once he arrived I let him know what the issue was and he got right to work. After some troubleshooting he figured out what the issue might be explained everything clearly as he was doing it. He even taught me a bit about electrical theory and showed me how to do some simple work to make sure any outlets I work on in the future are up to code! He was able to complete the job in two hours and even installed a used but working breaker without charging me for the part since he had just pulled it from another breaker. All in all it was a pleasure working with Eric. His honesty, professionalism, and positive attitude sold me, as long as I'm in the area Eric will be my go-to for any electrical issues I encounter! read more

Eric and his helper were great ! He installed a wall charger for my new Chevy Volt. His prices were very reasonable and work was superb ! Thanks again Eric read more

Eric is very responsive, knowledgeable, professional, and his price is very reasonable. Initially, I contacted Eric to get his help on installing my ChargePoint charger. But after a few conversation / text messages with him, I decided to get his help on installing the charger, all the lights in our rooms and recessed lights. He showed up on time (none of my other contractors show up on time ... lucky if they show up.. ) and got the work done in a very professional manner. Also, his price is reasonable as compared to other electricians. Highly recommended. read more

Professional and pay attention to details and installation. Eric and his assistant installed an outlet for Tesla charger in my garage. They were just perfect!!!! read more

Got the job done on time at a fair price. I have already recommended Jaco to friends

Amazing service, we had a stove break down and needed a new one. Ordered a replacement at Lowes but learned there are "3 wire" connections and "4 wire" connections, we purchased the 3 wire and went home to check the old stove. Apparently, this stove is "hardwired", something we haven't seen before. After doing some research and figuring out that the installers won't connect this type of connection we went to Yelp to find an electrician. It was then we came across JaCo Electric. Being a Sunday and Mothers Day at that, I didn't expect to actually get a quote until Monday but we did within minutes. We were able to get a ballpark figure of what it would cost after sending pictures of everything involved and planned for the next day to do the work when the stove is delivered. Well as things go the stove didn't arrive until 8 PM, an hour and a half past the delivery window. The next morning I let Eric know that any time works for us and he was able to send someone in 20 minutes. We got the stove hardwired in without issue, quick and efficient. Then Eric himself stopped by and we had a great conversation and some recommendations for the existing electrical. If I ever need electrical work done again I wouldn't hesitate to call Jaco Electric! read more

Eric has done outstanding work! He installed 3 outdoor electrical outlets at my previous house and 2 at my current house. He did it in a quick and professional manner, with recommendations to make sure that that it looks aesthetically pleasing as well as meets potential coding upgrade requirements. He is very reasonable in price. read more

Eric is very responsive knowledgeable and responsive. I got quotes for ceiling fans and recessed lights throughout the house. Total of three quotes and Eric was most reasonable. I am glad I went with him for this with work. Eric installed and retrofitted all the lights and switches in the house. He installed the led lights throughout the house along with three fans. He came on first day and was ready to get started with the work. I am satisfied with his work. I will call him for my next project and recommend him to any one who is looking to get recessed lights. read more

I called Eric about a noise we were hearing coming from behind the kitchen outlet switches. He scheduled an appointment with me and even called me on his way to my house. He is extremely professional and was able to figure out and fix the issue. He charged a very reasonable amount for the work he completed. I will be calling him again in the near future for additional electrical work that I want done. read more

Great electrician! Save his number to your phone. Made an appointment with him to install a new electrical outlet in my garage. He was prompt and called before he arrived. He was in and out in minutes. Very friendly and informative. I received several other quotes from him for future jobs around my home. Definitely going to request his services in the future. Very professional and prices very reasonable. read more

Eric does great work and is a great guy! He installed 3 hanging lights in garage and 2 motion sensor lights in front. He shows up on time and always responds in a timely manner. If you want a reliable and trustworthy electrician then go with these guys. read more

Spoke with this company on December 1st to help me move my Jacuzzi disconnect box to behind my detached garage. Appointment was made for December 12th. to help determine the best course of action. No one showed up, nor did I receive a phone call saying they couldn't make it or to reschedule our appointment. Will make sure to never call this company again. read more

Review is long over due. Eric is great! I will only use him from now on with anything electrical. Needed to have some electrical outlets grounded and he did without tearing up my walls. He also fixed my outside patio light which turned out to be less expensive than expected. He is extremely knowledgeable and won't try to up sell you or anything. Great guy! Highly recommended. read more

After 2 handymen failed to solve my flickering light problem and power outages in my kitchen, I turned to Yelp to find an electrician. Two of the electricians I contacted never returned my messages. A third said he was too busy to help me. Then I called Jaco, and Eric answered his phone himself! I explained my issue and we set up an appointment. After Eric arrived among the first things he did were to correct what the handymen had done. He advised I replace all the breakers in the panel due to their age and condition. He didn't have the parts with him so we set up another appointment. This time Chris came with him and they had the work done ahead of the estimated time. I asked Eric to replace the overhead fixtures in my kitchen which had to be ordered so he and Chris returned for a third appointment. While Eric worked on the fixtures, Chris installed a GFI outlet in the kitchen. During this process Chris discovered that the main electrical lead coming into my kitchen was falling apart, so he repaired it. Eric said this was probably the source of power outages in the kitchen. I couldn't be more pleased with all the results. At last my electrical functions are working properly and I have peace of mind knowing the breakers are new. The work done by Eric and Chris is top notch and the charges are very reasonable. I highly recommend Jaco! read more

My house was constructed in 1985 and the internal cables were too old to handle the newer digital signal needed for high definition TV, such as Cox Contour and High-Speed Internet. I hired JaCo to basically reinstall all new RG-6 cables throughout the house and add new coax and ethernet cable outlets in various rooms. Eric and his brother came and completed the project over two days, and it could've been done in one day if not for a last minute change in the cable routing that I requested. I got two quotes for my project and Eric's prices were very competitive and fair. I added new outlets to 4 room and was very happy with the results. I now have Contour and saw a noticeable improvement in my TV picture quality and resolution. Eric was very good about keeping the number of holes he had to cut in the walls to a minimum and made sure the construction areas were cleaned up afterwards. Just note he does not do drywall repair so you will need to hire a separate contractor to fix the holes he cuts. I would recommend Eric to anyone looking to replace the cable wiring in their homes. Just make sure you schedule him with some advanced notice. He had a pretty packed project schedule and we had to reschedule a couple of times to find a date that worked. Also as a suggestion, when you talk to him make sure you do the following: - identify the room where you would like to put your media hub -- cable modem, wireless router. - identify the rooms where you need new wiring - in each room, what devices (TV, computer) need a cable outlet Overall, Eric was very pleasant and reasonable to work with and he tries to accommodate all your requests within reason. read more

Found Eric on Yelp and I'm so glad I did! Fixed everything quickly and I was surprised at how inexpensive it was. Definitely keeping his number on hand read more

Eric Lectured me for over 40 minutes as he stalled to complained about how long it would take to Install a Motion Sensor Light & Camera before starting the Job as he was charging $75/Hr. He seemed obstinate arguing why he didn't put up the Light & Camera were I requested him to on the SW Corner & the Electric Box on the NW Corner as agreed.yet then did not nd Did NOT do as instructed & it did Not Work!... He spent several minutes calling his Girl Friend & J.W. Friends & took over a 3 Hour Shopping trip then said it was too late to finish and fix the problem demanding I pay him before he left. He also "Accidentally Cut Hole on the NW corner when he was supposed to be working on the SW Corner.. It was dark & he claimed the "The fixture was malfunctioning" vs. his faulty wires... I had an extra Fixture so we changed the fixture out & the camera seemed to work so I paid him...However when I went to turn on the exterior & interior lights at the switch & outlet he ran the wires though Both the the Exterior interior light began flashing off & on... He refused to come back and fix or check it with out charging me & he did NOT put the outlet box on the west side as I requested because he said it was more work than he expected even though he initaliy said he would. He arrived 2 hours late, then took off for several hours to go shopping holding me up all day-afternoon returning so late that he was rushed and preoccupied with other calls and reiterating or trying to talk me out of the work he bid to do, I offered to pay him by the hour and he still was hesitant, dramatic and full of me all the excuses & NOT able to remember what he was to do as he kept talking about the work vs. doing it. I wanted was cooking Dinner & tired of talking as he rehashed it over and over again...When he finally finished the work was sloppy the grommet/seal was exposed & my Dining Hutch Light started flashing off & On at the outlet he rewired & the Exterior Light also was flashing off & on. The only thing that worked was the camera that was plugged in...He overcharged was incompetent and so I went to Check out his Company to find that he was NOT licensed. He Claims to Be a Jehovah's Witness so I expected He Would Be Honest but when I checked him out & Found out that He Apparently he is a Poser who claims to be a Licensed Electrician-Journeyman, He talks & talks but could NOT Install a Functioning Motion Sensor & Damaged the existing Outlet so that it No Longer Functions correctly and left it wiried Incorrectly then Bullied me Demanding his Pay after he said He Underbid the Job then Switched to demanding an Hourly rate as he and still was Unable to complete the Job & or Correct the Problem that he created and said he could Not stay to Fix the Problem becasue he had to Go to a JW Meeting & see His Girlfriend...He said he would only come back to fix the Problem if I continued to pay for another trip charge and give him a Good Yelp Review...It was a Waste of my Time & Money as he apparently had No Clue as to what to do and just charged me to come out and argue...So the outlet and lights didn't work he apparently broke the outlet that initially worked & still charged me over $350 for 1/2 day of lecturing & arguing so I guess I ended up paying him to go away... read more

Eric is knowledgeable and friendly while being straightforward. I called him out to assess a new cooktop in my new home. For some reason it was not working properly. He was able to assess the situation based on some initial troubleshooting I did, went even deeper to discover it was improperly wired from the last rewiring the house had done, and he fixed it. He reassured me that everything else was basically new (in terms of wiring) and was done very well. He gave me a very reasonable quote for the completed work and I would have zero issues calling him back again. He's really booked up but I believe he's worth waiting for. Cheers! read more

Eric and his brother have excellently done several projects at a new home we moved into and we couldn't be happier. He is very knowledgeable, fair in price, does a very good job, and is trustworthy. I Very highly recommend him and have absolutely no complaints about any aspects of his work. read more

I'm always skeptical to hire someone based on Yelp reviews but in this case, I'm so glad I did! Eric gave me a quote over the phone and stuck by his quote (no hidden fees)! Eric showed up on time and was professional & meticulously installed our 42lb crystal chandelier fan. A couple of days after the installation, the fan stopped working - gave Eric a call, he responded immediately and came and identified/fixed the problem without hesitation. I've worked with other electrician whom often decline jobs because of how small the job is, but not Eric! He is knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, I will not hesitate to hire him again for any electrical work big or small, and will most definitely recommend him to all my friends or family! Most importantly, his rate is very reasonable. read more

Eric has done an excellent job of installing 5 ceiling lights at my home. Four of the lights that he replaced were old style recessed box lights of circa 1980, which required removal of boxes and repair of the ceiling dry wall before installation of new lights. One light was a new light. All done to my complete satisfaction. Thank you. read more

Eric recently installed recessed lightning in my kitchen, installed a ceiling fan and bathroom exhaust fan. He was very knowledgeable and professional. He offered suggestions which were very helpful. The work was completed quickly and cleaned up when finished. I would definitely recommend JaCo Electric. read more
