I received 3 quotes, all for amounts in excess of $1000. Then, I brought in another electrician. He fixed the problem in less than 10 minutes with a screwdriver (loose wire) He ran full diagnostic and quoted me for a new electrical panel. All for under $500 if I move forward! read more

I don't feel comfortable with this company. First, Luis recommended a panel upgrade from 100 amps to 200 amps. I have a 200 amp panel. That's basic and inspires no confidence in him or the company. Second, Luis wanted to focus on all the things wrong with my panel and wiring. I made the appointment to help solve a specific problem. Third, when I saw your pricing "options" I was floored. Your prices were astronomical with zero breakdown to justify a charge. I feel sorry for customers with blind trust. I could buy a brand new car with the prices quoted. read more

Fast service. Smooth online portal. Great communication. The price was also reasonable and they gave many options.

My review is based on the quick response and their ability to work directly with my tenant. Tenant had a no electricity in their kitchen, Reel Electric got back to me quickly and worked with my property manager to connect to the tenant on their time. There is a $125 service call fee which goes towards the cost of invoice. This does leave you not being able to shop around (because you don't want to lose the $124) so I would call around first to see what other quotes you get before sending someone out who charges service call. The technician replaced a 20 amp breaker and the cost was close to $400. I don't know if that's a reasonable price or not but the work was done in a timely manner and they worked well with my tenant. Technician was also friendly. read more

They were knowledgeable and ready. I ended up not needing the service, but would have used them.

I posted on "What's Up Corona" asking for recommendations pertaining to electrical repairs. A few people recommended The Reel Electric Company. I read a few reviews on Yelp and I decided to give them a call and a few other electrical repair companies. After talking to Juan I decided to schedule an appointment. I cant say enough about Juan and The Reel Electric Company. About a month ago I decided to fix my outdoor lighting in the front and backyard. I was absolutely stumped as to why my lighting wasn't working. The 1st visit focused on the front yard. Juan charges a troubleshooting fee of $125 which goes towards the repairs. I had him install 1 new low voltage transformer and transfer for the existing low voltage transformer to the front yard. He mounting and wired 2 transformers. Juan also installed transformers on the existing GFCI. Problem solved! The 2nd visit also cost me $125 for troubleshooting, which again went to the cost to repair my backyard lighting Juan installed a low voltage transformer and receptacle behind the pool equipment and connected this to the automated controller. He ran low voltage wiring to the light nearest to my pool equipment and ran wiring to a working light to power 2 lights near the back door. I purchased additional outdoor lights from Amazon and Juan graciously installed all 5. Problem solved! All in all, Juan is just a great guy! Honest, easy to talk to, on time and does quality work. I even called him a few times late at night, expecting to leave a voicemail and he picked up and happily answered all my questions regarding the operation of all the new equipment I had installed. I will continue to use Juan for ALL my electrical repair needs! He's the best in the biz! read more

On time and no BS. Luis did exactly what he said he would do and explained everything.

Thank you Reel Electric for your service! Javier was amazing. He was efficient, professional and answered all my questions.

When we started looking for electricians we knew we wanted expertise, professionalism, and fair pricing, but we also wanted to be sure we *liked the people that would be in our home for several days. With Juan and The Reel Electric Company we got everything we'd hope for! Built in 1923, our home is (was!) a Frankenstein mix of wiring - some up to code but most still knob and tube with exposed wire throughout the attic. It was important to have someone who knew what they were doing as there were likely to be some problems to solve along the way. The project was completed on time, on budget, and we are so pleased with the end work. Reel Electric managed the project for us, scheduling the inspection, sending the paperwork ahead of time, finding and scheduling the wall repair, and keeping us in the loop as decisions needed to be made. All of this made additionally easier by Juan's good natured professionalism, obvious knowledge and skill, and ability to patiently answer any questions we had along the way. This was the first of many electrical projects we have planned over the next several years and there is no doubt The Reel Electric Company will be our go to from here on out. read more

I wanted to install a Tesla charger but unfortunately the panel located at my house needed to be upgraded. Juan explained the different options and what he was able to do. Juan was very professional and responsive from the moment I contact the Reel Electric Company. I decided to upgrade the panel and Juan and his team did a fantastic job with everything. They went above and beyond with their customer service. I would highly recommend them and I myself will be calling them for any future electrical work that I may need. read more

Responded promptly and professionally, was knowledgeable and communicative, discussed alternatives, arrived as scheduled, finished work quickly (without supervision), and completed all the work correctly. Best of all, I'm happy with the work and the options/features!! Rarely 100% satisfied, but this time, I absolutely am! Thank you, you've earned a customer for life. read more

I was looking for a licensed electrician to install a Tesla Wall Charger in my garage. I found The Reel Electric Company listed as an authorized Tesla equipment installer. I've also seen the company always being mentioned in my neighborhood community Facebook group. Sent them a message via Yelp and told them what I needed done and that I needed a quote. Was messaged right back and told me how much it would be. Asked me to take a picture of my breaker box and scheduled me in for an appointment. All this was done via Yelp message, which was awesome! I messaged a couple of other companies and was hit with the "We need to see it to provide a quote" or "Give us a call" which really turned me off as a potential client since my job request was pretty straight forward. Juan sent a text message when he was on the way. When he arrived, he gave me a rundown on what was going to be done and went straight to work. He did an awesome job on the installation and left no mess. I will definitely be contacting him again to get some other electrical things I need done around the house. read more

The Reel Electric - Tesla Wall Charger - Electricians Near Me - Riverside, California

The Reel Electric is highly recommended in neighborhood groups for 2 cities that I am in and after hiring them for a couple of projects I can see why. They do quality and efficient work at fair prices. From messaging the owner to two of their electricians, they were pleasant to work with. Would definitely hire again should we need more electrical work or upgrades. read more

Juan is a great guy and an amazing electrician. He was on time to my home and was always giving good communication from scheduling the appointment all the way to the day before calling and letting me know about his arrival. He did an amazing job with our outdoor light fixture. The box on the inside had broke and need to be replaced as well. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for quality electrical work. Thanks again Juan for your knowledge and professionalism while on the job. read more

The Reel Electric - Installed Tesla wall Mount charger - Electricians Near Me - Riverside, California

Juan was great. Diagnosed and fixed problem in 30 minutes. Came prepared and gave several great suggestions for upgrades for the future. Would recommend. read more

Reel Electric was great. They were very patient with us while we were trying to figure out logistics and what we actually needed done in order to prep for a bathroom remodel. I was also looking at other companies that I found on Yelp/online and by far Reel Electric gave us the best deal/quote out there. One place was even trying to charge me to relocate an outlet what Reel charged including an additional add on. When Reel came to my house for the job, they were on time and professional. I wasn't home but it was my wife and they made her feel comfortable and safe which is very important to me. We will be having more electrical work done in the near future and these guys will be the only place we call. Thank you! read more

Juan did such a great job on installing 2 Ring floodlight cam pro wired. He was on time and very professional with work and attitude. I highly recommend this business and will call them again on my next project. read more

This review is long overdue. My family and I, kept having an electrical issue at our house, to where the lights would keep going out. It became worse, to where during the summer, it would prevent the A/C unit from functioning properly. So hot!! My wife finally let me have it and gave me an ultimatum. I called a few companies that came by and provided us with an estimate, however my wife and I were not comfortable with how vague the description of their work was going to be and their pricing. The Reel Electric Company provided us with a detailed description of where exactly the issue was coming from, and gave us a few options as far as what was required, in order to properly resolve the issue. Their technician, Juan provided us with great customer service and knowledge. He was so detailed in regard to the work that he performed. Honestly, we were impressed. Solved the issue! No more worries! read more

Service was completed but technician left multiple holes in the wall that I was just not aware we're going to be made. He fixed the drywall for the 3 major once in the room he was working in but somehow also made a hole into the adjacent bathroom and just left that as it were. read more

Called Juan for an emergency weekend response. He immediately answered and without hesitation, he came to the house and fixed our issues. Fantastic customer service and not a single negative thing I could say! I will be recommending him to any and all friends! read more

Juan and Tom were awesome. Juan was able to come to my house within 2 days of my request for a quote. He could have come sooner if I had been ready. Not only did they take care of the three ceiling fans I needed installed, they replaced an outdoor light and wired smoke alarms that had been giving us issues. Without a doubt I will have them out again to do more work. If you need an electrician, these guys are the best! read more

Juan... what a great guy---I had reached out with a few problems in our backyard with no power to different places. Juan gave me some simple advice over the phone that he could have easily booked an appt and a service charge for---do yourself a favor and hire this company and Juan. He will be our go to for electrical issues in the future ! read more

I found the Reel Electric Company on Yelp. Juan is great to work with. He gave a quick easy quote for my EV charger. Came out to my house and did clean work. Explained everything I needed to know about the charger and made everything so easy. Thank you Juan! read more

All work was completed in the requested time frame. We are very pleased with all the light installations.

I had no power to half my kitchen and a friend came to try and help which didn't work. I went to Yelp being a female and getting strangers to come inside my house is alittle scary, but I read reviews and Juan's response time was on point. He came the same day fixed my problem in mins and I was just charged the the first quote he gave me. I will be calling him back in future for any other electrical issues and will be referring him to my friends. Yay I get to use my whole kitchen now :) read more

Wonderful customer service by Juan. My breaker died on on me at 7pm and wouldn't reset, I reached out and Juan responded to my crys for help within minutes. He chatted with me on the phonelistening to me describe in my "I have no idea what this stuff is called" way, going out of his way to put my worried mind at ease. He came out the next morning and my breaker was replaced and working before 10a. Super friendly, will definitely be using again! read more

Juan came over to help and he was so nice and knowledgeable. He really helped me. Thank you. Edison was over charging us.

The company was very responsive to my messages and even though there was a miscommunication (due to MY slow responses!) they still made it out to me when they originally scheduled, fixed my outlet that affected all my electricity in my garage, and were fairly priced and efficient. They also gave me estimates on some other work I will need done in the future, but did not come across as pushy salespeople. read more

Juan was very responsive and showed up on time. He was very polite and knowledgeable and would listen to what you're saying, so it made the process easier in troubleshooting and fixing the issue. The price was fair and was as quoted over the phone. This will be my go-to electrician. read more
