    Ceiling fan installed
    Mondo L.

    Sean and his co worker came in and installed a couple of ceiling fans for my elderly mother. We had an appt within 48 hrs, they were early, professional quick and efficient. All around good guys to work with. Appreciate the work gentlemen

    A traditional on/off option. These are needed for all fans that double as lights and give you different speeds & light options.
    Robert G.

    Sean and one of his partners arrived to straighten out a small electrical problem that has been a real pain in the bee for the last year or so with this fan. They informing that the previous individual who installed it should have known better. Fans need 100% of their respective power coming through the various sockets. By having a fader switch as opposed to a traditional on-off switch, the fan never was getting full power, and as a result would always start to twitch and flicker. Major pain in the a. Sean and his partner knocked out the job and probably all of 10 to 12 minutes. Great brand, great customer service, great look overall. Go with Optimum for all your electrical needs, especially if on the west side of LA. Don't believe me? Go to their Yelp site and check out the reviews and stars.

    I hired Optimum Electric to install a 220-240V power outlet for an outdoor dry sauna and also help troubleshoot some electrical issues with a junction box. From start to finish, Vaheh (Sean) and his team (David) were outstanding. They arrived right on time, came fully prepared, and immediately got to work. Their assessment was thorough and thoughtful--they clearly explained the scope of the work, surveyed all the issues, and offered practical solutions. The team was efficient, personable, and incredibly professional throughout the entire process. They completed the work exactly as promised, with no surprises or delays. The estimate they provided was both reasonable and fair, which I really appreciated. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled electrician, I highly recommend Optimum Electric. Vaheh and his crew are the real deal--honest, dependable, and great at what they do. I'll absolutely be calling them again for future projects. Rick D

    200amp panel and barrier post

    5 star quality work. Sean and his team upgraded a 100amp panel to a 200amp panel. Great quality work, great reasonable price. From start to finish, Sean was always prompt with communication and responded quickly to my questions. Showed up on time and did an excellent job. Any electrical project? Call Sean!

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose family owned, READY ELECTRIC. After speaking…read morewith Jesse initially, we felt confident we had chosen the right company, as they were friendly and highly accommodating to our schedule and needs. We were equally impressed by Jr's professionalism, knowledge, and workmanship. He listened carefully to our requirements and used his skills and foresight to successfully complete the project. We are so pleased with the results that we have already referred Ready Electric to our family and neighbors. Thank you Jesse & Jr for your prompt service, cleanliness and outstanding work. It's clear that you take great pride in what you do!

    I had an emergency situation that ultimately called for a full panel upgrade. We scheduled a visit…read moreto check out the problem the next day, which was not an emergency inspection or anything. He came to check out the problem and give me a quote. Overall, he was thorough in explaining stuff. What rubbed me the wrong way was how after I asked him for a quote and told him I have one other person checking it out to give me a quote, his tone changed. I explained that this is an expensive project and it would be dumb to just get your price and go with it without checking with at least one other company. I'm not made out of money here. He then gave me the quote and it was literally like twice the range of most panel upgrades. I get that you're licensed, but so are most of these companies. I feel like because of my situation (Edison had cut the power to my place), he was just taking advantage. Admittedly, I was desperate to get it fixed, but I'm not going to pay almost 12k for something that costs around 5k. So he gives me the quote breakdown and four options (all way over average prices), and then I say thanks and that again, someone is also going to stop by and take a look and I'll text him either way. He then gave me a guilt trip about how they reserved the day for me and how it sucks that I'm not just taking the job. At that point, even if the second guy wasn't going to work out, I was not going with this company. Fortunately, the second guy (also licensed) that came was able to pull some strings and get everything done --meter checked, permitted--the next day for a fraction of what Ready Electric quoted me. Power is back on and I didn't spend more than I needed to. For those of you needing electric work: shop around. Oftentimes we need this kind of work done ASAP, but companies will definitely take advantage as was this case. 3 stars because they responded quick and did explain things thoroughly. Clarification based on Ready Electric's reply: The quote was $11,600 for a standard panel upgrade. Yes, my panel was in bad shape, but I was not misrepresenting the situation. If anything, to suggest that your most affordable option was $1k when it was really (according to you) not really an option at all (with zero warranty even) and to leave out your main recommendation (the panel upgrade) is misrepresentative. I credit you for going out of your way and explaining stuff, and I would imagine that as a business, that part of the getting business is time-consuming. Apparently there was an inspection fee that was waived, and the gentlemen that came even asked, "how did you get the inspection fee waived?" Well, no fee was ever mentioned upon calling and making an appointment, and had there been, I would have never made the appointment in the first place. You mentioned that you understand people would get a second opinion and that's good; however, the whole reason I wrote my review (which I rarely do) was because of the guilt trip I was given for doing so. It was unnecessary and a poor persuasion technique. If I were to have said I have another guy coming to get a second opinion and you were like, "absolutely, just let us know if you decide to move forward with us," I would have never wrote my review, or I would've written one that praised the thoroughness of your quoting process. Also, the guy I went with was a referral from my brother's current contractor, but he has never worked with any of us directly. So we didn't have an existing relationship or anything. In fact, when I told him what i was quoted, he laughed and said that's just people trying to take advantage. Again, the point of my review was ultimately to warn people to shop around and not go with the first quote you get, especially if you're in a pinch like I was. Another day without electricity is worth not getting ripped off.

    Primo Electric provided top-notch service from beginning to end!…read more From the first time I reached out, they were very responsive and were able to get our project moving within just a few days. They took the time to answer all of our questions and concerns and explained everything clearly, including a detailed breakdown of the work and pricing before we moved forward. They upgraded our home to a 200-amp electrical panel, installed a 50-amp car charger outlet, and completed additional electrical work for our kitchen, laundry area, and portable AC. The entire process was seamless. The team was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and respectful of our home. Everything was completed beautifully and left in great working order. I also really appreciate that they stand behind their work and guarantee it, which gives us extra peace of mind. It's not always easy to find a company that communicates well, is transparent about pricing, and does quality work. We had a great experience with Primo Electric and would definitely recommend them!

When asked if he could quote me on some work in the attic he said he would take a look at it if he was seriously considered for the job. A few weeks went by and I contacted him to see if he could come he said he would and not only did he not show up but he didn't bother letting me know he couldn't make it. It's like he doesn't want to bother going to the job site unless he has the job locked in. I rather pay more and work with someone who takes the time to look at the job onsite and quotes me accordingly. No hidden costs which can happen if they're not thorough when quoting the job.
