Installers arrived on time. Great work. Fair price set by the owner, Ken. I'd recommend them for your next project. read more

Johnson Electric - Outlet - Electricians Near Me

Did a great job installing my electric car charger. They ran a long cable no problem

My current house is a 1924 home, not grounded with original panel. During the bad weather during Christmas, my power was going off and on so I called DWP TWICE. The first time they said it was not them. Because power was hit and miss I called DWP again and finally someone came out. They checked the panel and this time they said I needed an electrician. The electrician I first called came out but was swamped so I waited. After a couple of weeks, I couldn't wait anymore and my neighbor said they used Johnson Electric for their upgraded panel (also a 1924 home.) I called Johnson Electric told them I needed an upgraded panel. They were also busy however, I told them how long I had been waiting for someone else and they were able to rearrange their schedule for my family. Their crew (EZ and his son) explained what they planned to do. Their goal was to leave my family with working power before they left. Before their final connection to the DWP line, they noticed the power from the DWP line was still off and on and realized the issue was with DWP. They called DWP with an emergency call. Bottom line- DWP still insisted it was not their problem and told Johnson to go ahead and connect and for us the family to call if there was still an issue in the morning. Johnson insisted there was a problem and finally convinced DWP to check the pole. While we waited for DWP to climb the pole we saw and heard sparks from the line. Thank God Johnson Electric was there to push DWP. I cannot even imagine what might have happened with those sparks. Johnson Electric has all my confidence that they know what they are doing. They did a beautiful job and cleaned up afterwards. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM. Jan 2026 read more

I've had the pleasure of hiring Ken and his crew for multiple jobs at our house, both big and small. Their pricing is always extremely fair, their work is clean and immaculate, and they are always easy to schedule. They've done everything from installing single outlets to completely rewiring our 115 year old house and I can't recommend them enough. read more

Ken and his team were meticulous and thorough. Everything was explained clearly and the estimate was detailed and understandable. Very trustworthy and committed to quality work. We had our entire house rewired and a new panel installed. We got 3 quotes; Johnson was in the middle in terms of pricing - very fair. read more

Mr. Johnson and his crew have performed a fewjobs from lighting installations, to doorbell repair, to rewiring. Every job has been done well and at a reasonable price. The workers were respectful and very helpful at explaining the work they did before they left. What really set this outfit apart is Mr. Johnson himself. He always returns calls, his crews show up on time and perform the work expediently. On top of this, when I have had questions about other electrical concerns, Mr. Johnson takes time to have a phone call to consult on the issue. Mr. Johnson and his company are of high integrity and I would highly recommend them for any residential electric work. read more

Johnson Electric upgraded my panel to 200 amps. The customer service was amazing, everything went smoothly, and the technicians were polite and professional throughout. An A/C contractor even told me my panel was "the cleanest job he'd ever seen." Ken's price was more than fair, and was exactly what he'd estimated. I recommend this company wholeheartedly! read more

Called around to a few electricians regarding installation of 5 light fixtures. Either never able to come out, another gave a over a thousand dollar estimate. Kenneth was responsive in a very timely manner. Estimate was very reasonable. Jose was efficient, timely and clean with the install of the lights. The final installations were excellent and neat. I will be calling them again for future electrical work....I would definitly recommend Johnson Electric. read more

this is the forth time i have used ll johnson for my electric this time he put in a 220 volt line for me and he did an outstanding job just like the other three jobs for me read more

I have used Johnson Electric twice and they did a great job. I am sure there are other decent electricians around, but these guys are reliable and actually return your phone calls! Very pleased with the work they have done in my house. read more

If you are looking for trustworthy electricians which can be very difficult, look no further. Ken and his crew are first rate. Absolutely amazing and quick to deal with on the communication side of things, the actual jobs we needed done were completed perfectly and we are thrilled with the results. Will definitely be using them for all our future electrical needs! AAA Star. read more

Ken's guys did a very good job installing a ceiling outlet and roughing low voltage wire and for a fairly reasonable cost. They are pros and I would use them again. When I thought (incorrectly) that my speaker wires were having problems he offered to come out if in the area. I thought he was just saying he would but he called the very next day to set it up. I ended up not needing them to come out but it was really appreciated that he offered. Great service! read more

I called to replace a ceiling fan and combo smoke detector. The service was quick in getting to my house and just as fast installing the 2 items. I would highly recommend Johnson Electric without any hesitation. And the price was very reasonable. read more

Ken & his team do a great job. They are honest and reliable. They completely rewired a house from the early 1900's, and 3 units that were built in the 1950's. read more

Had Johnson Electric come out for a complete rewire of the house a while back and just getting round to the yelp review, because he totally deserves my time and energy for a good review. I've owned my home for 15 years and have added on as well as had a complete landscape re-do, so I do have quite a bit of experience with the good, the bad and the ugliest of contractors. These guys fall into the good camp. This guy doesn't do any of the work himself anymore, I don't think, but he has a very good team working for him. This actually leaves him free to take phone calls and go out to make bids, answer questions, etc. I really liked that he billed by the item, not all electricians do this. I got a "quote" from another general contractor who was already at the house doing some insurance work and his bid was roughly 30% higher. I say roughly because they were billing by time, so who knows what the actual cost would have been. I just don't play like that, sorry. The guys were punctual, professional and courteous the work was done in a timely manner. They are tidy and respectful. If someone is looking for more from an electrician, they should probably have their brain rewired instead of their house! read more

Had Johnson Electric for several jobs and have been more than pleased with their work. They are courteous, knowledgeable, and reasonable. Will call them whenever I need an electrician in the future. read more

Have used Ken and crew across several projects. He's one of those contractors you wish all other contractors would be like. Very professional, good crew that does very good work. read more

Ken and his team did a great job rewiring my 1924 house and upgrading my electrical panel. His pricing is completely transparent and he's good about keeping you updated. His team is clean and professional and I had no reservations about leaving them alone in my house for several days. Make sure you ask Ken for his "how electricity works" lesson. It was SO helpful! read more

This review is way overdue. I hired Ken and his crew to work on our entire 1200 square feet guesthouse after being totally screwed by a sham contractor who used other people's license and did everything wrong and scammed us over 80 grand. I was devastated and afraid to hire any contractors at that point. I really checked every review (which by the way not always reliable as my last general contractor hired people to write fake reviews which got me fooled) and especially the state contractor license board records. I only wanted to hire someone who has a long license history without any citations. And yes that is a great way you scout out good people who do great work and won't cheat with someone else's license. Ken has a very long license history without company ownership or name change. I really liked his clean record so I called him up. He came the next day to see what I needed done. I pretty much had him QA the entire project and redo all the electric work. He was so easy to talk to and his two employees Oscar and EZ (I don't know how to spell his name but they call him EZ) were superb. You can tell they are very reliable employees who don't need hand holding or micromanaging. Their great work really eased my nerve after the horrendous experience with the last general contractor who lied and scammed us badly. We are extremely happy with their work and they are also so laid back with their payment unlike other contractors I had before who always wanted to get paid faster then the work they did. I think they are very confident with their work quality and they have tons of return businesses to keep them busy so they are not worried about not being paid. I actually felt bad for holding off the project for months before they could finish it because I had to have other contractors finish their work before I could have Ken's crew to continue their work. Not once Ken rushed me. It was such an enjoyable experience with then all along. I am so grateful for everything they have done. I highly recommend them for any electrical work for project big or small. Their rate is very reasonable and work quality is superb!!!! read more

Johnson Electric has done the electric for several homes for me. I did a complete re-wire on my house and garage and felt they did a really good job. The owner comes across as very honest, knowledgeable and straight forward. When they rewired they did minimally invasive damage to the lathe and plaster walls and worked fast and efficiently. I also have used them for a number of other jobs on other properties, such as new electric panels, new subpanels, and what I like is their consistency in pricing. It's very fair and never inflated. I will definitely keep using them. read more

For many years now, whenever I need an electrician, Johnson Electric is always who I call. They've done everything from changing out light sockets and fixtures to installing electric smoke alarms in my rental units. They have always done a great job for us, no matter how big or small the job. They are more than reasonable in pricing, very efficient, and most important...they show up on time, as promised...and they are local, which is also a big plus in my book. Today I had a doorbell disconnected and a light fixture repaired. The gentleman that did the work was friendly, efficient and on time, as always. I will continue to call them for all my electrical needs and recommend them whole heartedly. read more

I never actually met anyone from the company, as they did the work while *I* was at work. But the guy I talked to on the phone (not sure if that was Mr. Johnson or not) was no nonsense, informative and he actually took the time to listen to and respond to my questions, which more than a few electricians I called seemed unwilling or unable to do. The work was done well and the pricing was fair. I will definitely be calling them for future repairs and highly recommend them to people seeking an electrician. read more

My home inspector prioritized a list of "wants" and "musts" for the home I purchased a year ago. Top of the list was electrical work because the electrical infrastructure was badly out of date and needed an upgrade to be code-compliant. Work would include a replacement of a very outdated circuit-breaker panel and various other changes throughout the home. Ken Johnson (Johnson Electric at 2544 Prospect Ave, Montrose CA 91020) was recommended to me and I was very satisfied with the price and quality of work from this company. Ken's quote was very fair, and there were no unpleasant surprises or additional charges after the work began. The on-site work by his technicians was excellent. The job necessitated small amount of demolition and subsequent repair of one wall - this was also done by the work crew. They worked quickly and carefully, and were fastidious in cleanup- I didn't have to do anything once they left. Ken called me after the project was completed to make sure I was satisfied with his company's service. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend Johnson Electric for residential projects in this area. read more

Mr. Johnson has done several jobs for me and I am always satisfied with his work. He won't oversell you more then you need. In my experience, he has been very thorough and willing to work within my budget and around my schedule. read more

Ken, the owner responded quickly to my call. He actually talked me through my problem without having to dispatch an electrician thus saving me the cost of a service call. That gesture alone indicates that Johnson electric is a business that cares. Putting profit behind just wanting to do "the right thing". Very admirable in this world we live in. read more

Johnson Electric is our go-to electrician. Ken's pricing is reasonable and he's very communicative. Ken and his guys do great work. They replaced our electrical panel and even our insurance agent complimented the work and said the price was reasonable. They've also installed new outlets and lights for us. A good experience every time. read more

These guys are great. Always on time, kind, helpful, patient, and I've never had to call them back for the same job twice.

Hired Ken and his team for a complete knob and tube rewire of our historic 1911 home as well as installation of LED trim kits, a ceiling fan and some light fixtures. The cost v scope and quality of the work was the best value I've seen as a new homeowner. All members of the company, from the on-site techs to Ken were friendly, hard-working, responsive and communicated well. All tasks, estimates and invoicing were clear, concise, and open to questions and discussion. It was a rewarding and satisfying experience which one does not usually expect from contractor projects. I highly recommend including Johnson Electric in your bidding process, you will not be disappointed. read more

Johnson Electric is very responsive, punctual, and gives estimates per item, not per job, so you can take items off the list if the budget is tight. read more
