Wil did a perfect job rewiring an outlet and my disposal in the kitchen. Also very helpful in explaining everything to me so that I understood it all. Lovely experience and very fast response. Thanks!! read more

Wil is great! He communicates everything very well, and he's very polite when I talk to him on the phone or when he's interacted with tenants on the property. He installed a new electrical panel for a 1940s duplex as well as rewiring. He kept me informed throughout the whole project, he listened to my wants/needs as well as offering helpful insight on things from his experience, and the pricing was below what I was prepared to pay (but the quality of work was top notch). After reaching out to many electricians in the LA area, I am so grateful I found Wil! read more

Wil replaced an overhead kitchen light fixture for me and did an excellent job at a very fair price. His father-in-law, who was with him that day, even patched some holes where the old fixture had been! Highly recommended! read more

i was surprised how easy it was to work with Will Jackson. I did not have to take off from work. He installed my EV level 2 charger at the time that was convinient for me.I kept offerrng to pay prior to the job but he insisted that the work must be finished first before any monetary transaction. He is very professional and knowledgeable in is field. My husband had lined up other projects for him to do. We just found our electrician. read more

We needed to update the electric in our kitchen. Will completed the task very quickly -- from pulling the permits, installing the new plugs, rewiring our electrical box and getting the work inspected by the city. His helper Antonio was also very efficient and knowledgeable. We will definitely use Will again. We highly recommend Modern Electric to our friends and neighbors. read more

Will was fantastic in calling me within minutes I sent a quote request. He was the first one. We were on the phone for 10 minutes and he walked me through what I need to do to restart by circuit breaker. I had lost power this morning because I had plugged in too many appliances at the same time. He was very generous with his wisdom and time, and he did it without charge. I will definitely call him when we are ready to upgrade our electrical. read more

Wow! What a reliable, experienced, genuine and professional electrician. A House call is so affordable. Explained in detail what was going on with my electrical panel and walked me through the tests he performed. Made suggestions and did a check of the house to make sure everything was safe! Give him a call! read more

Wil not only assessed the condition of a my home's electrical system before I purchased it, he was able to get the seller to remove over $3,000 from closing costs based on problems he identified. He and his team of two later upgraded the wiring in my home, bringing it up to code. The work was extremely professional, up front, and fair. I will be calling him for all my electrical needs moving forward! read more

Excellent service , punctual and did great job. I strongly recommend

Wilbur installed a Tesla Wall Charger on the side of our garage in advance of our vehicles delivery. He was very fast at getting back to me through Yelp, gave me an estimate through SMS from pictures and measurements I sent, and did the install without me being home and to perfect specification. The charger looks/functions great and we couldn't be happier. I'll post a picture of the install soon. read more

Just called Will when our electrician had to cancel last minute on our renovation. He wasn't available, but went out of his way to find a good electrician who was available to help us. He has been in the business for 30 years and I felt he was trustworthy and genuinely interested in the success of our project- and he wasn't even getting paid! He is definitely someone I would bring in for my home project. read more

I needed an electrician for a simple task of reversing the polarity on an outlet, but it needed to be coordinated with the arrival of a new appliance, and this was over the Memorial Day weekend. Much to my delight, I was able to talk Wil into sacrificing an hour of his Memorial Day and provide his expertise to help me. Wil was quite punctual, and everything went off without a hitch. He was efficient, positive, paid a lot of attention to details -- and it was obvious to me that he cared deeply for a job well done. Although I only needed him for a small job, Wil demonstrated that he would be an excellence choice for a task of any size and scale. We're happy with his great service and would like to recommend Wil to everyone! read more

I needed a junction box for a security light for my garage. I yelp-requested quotes from 7 electricians with 4+ star reviews. I ended up going with Modern Electric after meeting Wil in person. His wasn't the cheapest option, but I liked his communication and promptness. He also informed me of a problem in my garage that I was aware of, and I added that to the job. Fast forward to the job...Wil arrived earlier than expected, which I don't mind as I am an early riser anyway. He performed the job requested with an hour and a half to spare based on the quoted time of 3 hours to perform the work. I highly recommend Modern Electric due to the ease of communication, promptness, and quality of work. read more

I highly recommend Wil. He installed a Clipper Creek charger next to our driveway. His prices were reasonable and he is very knowledgeable and professional. He's also a really nice guy. He hit a challenge with getting the power from our fuse box on the other side of our house to the driveway but he figured it out. He also did other electrical work at our house including installing lights in front of our house. Everything works great. I would definitely use him again. read more

Wil was on time, efficient, also explained to me what the issues were. He even gave me some energy saving tips. I highly recommend him!

Wil was great. He showed up on time and asked several questions a couple days before to make sure there were no surprises. I got Wil's number from a colleague who had used his services to install a 240 volt electric car charger. He installed two electric car chargers for me. One was a wall mount, and the other was a 240 volt wall outlet for a removable charger. His prices were very reasonable and the quality of his work was impeccable. I will definitely use his services again. read more

We will definitely use his services again when the need arises. read more

Will showed up right on time and completed the job in less time than he had estimated.

Plus he brought his father in law along and my dog loved him. read more

I Recommend Will 10000%!!!! I didn't end up having to hire Will because the free advice he gave me over the phone for my partial power outage was Wonderful and Extremely Helpful. On Saturday night we lost power and I left messages for 5 different electricians to call me back. All of the electricians were closed until Monday and I thought I was going to have to be stuck without power for the rest of the weekend. Will's office was closed too, but unlike all of the other electricians, he called me Sunday morning on his own time to ask questions about the problem and give me guidance over the phone. He told me to call DWP so that they could check the power pole and switches for free and find out if I really needed him to come over. DWP fixed the problem for nothing. If it hadn't been for Will, I would have had to spend a lot of money and be stuck without power for a long period. He's really kind, honest, knowledgeable and he has integrity. I saved his contact info in my phone and he will be the first electrician I call for any future power problems. Thank you so much Will, You're the Best!!!! read more

I've been using Will for years. He's the only electrician I allow to work on my house. Yesterday was a perfect example -- half of my house was out of electricity -- he rearranged his schedule and was here first thing in the morning. He was quickly able to come to a solution (it was an LADWP problem). Will told me the right thing to say to them to get the problem solved. Will followed up with me through out the day to make sure that everything was working and just to check in. read more

I use Wil Jackson and will never go to anyone else because he's reliable, his work is excellent, and he's always on time, which is such a huge plus when you're dealing with a work day.
