I was raving about True Power Electrical Services. Peter, the owner, was very responsive and I scheduled some work to be done at our condo. Unfortunately, Peter canceled this work just a few days prior to when the work was to begin. This left me scrambling around to try to find another electrician to complete our project. I feel that by canceling at the last minute, it wasn't very professional on his part. I'm really surprised that Peter canceled as we were just communicating the day before he canceled and everything was confirmed. read more

I was looking for a reputable certified electrician. So i turned to Yelp for some help. Read several reviews from 4 different companies. 1 stood out from the rest, True Power. So i asked for a quote for the work that i had and pics of the work area. Peter got back to me and said his company could help me. So we set up date and time that would accommodate me and my busy schedule. He told me Josh would be doing the work and would let me know when hes on his way. The install day came and Josh called to let me know he was 20mins away. He arrived and showed him what i needed done and said he could do it today. He explained what he was gonna do and finished the job in record time. Nice clean job. He was very professional and courteous. If i ever need a electrician i will definitely call Peter at True Power. Good job fellas. read more

Peter is an absolute legend. He came within an hour of an emergency electrical issue I needed to get done right away. His service is 5 out of 5 stars, he's very professional, informative, and respectfully polite. He made me and my family feel safer and cared for. 10/10 highly recommend. Thank you, Peter! read more

Josh came today to install two ceiling fans that were about 11 feet up on a slanted ceiling. This was something we didn't think we could tackle. Thankfully we called True Power because after seeing the problems he encountered there's no way we could've done that on our own. This is the 2nd time we hired them and have been very happy with the professionalism of the service as well as the constant communication. I would also like to add that Lowe's charges $195 for a "standard" ceiling fan install. I'm guessing there would be an extra charge for tall ceilings and for them to go up one flight of stairs so take that into consideration when deciding who to hire. read more

I was having flickering lights and then a couple of incidents where sparks were coming from the surge protectors in my house. My "Fuse Box" where you look to see if any of fuses are "tripped" is/was ancient and in need for replacement. I called True Power Electrical Services and "Pete" came out to do an assessment, made a recommendation and two days later "John" came out and totally replaced the fuse box as recommended. "John" did and excellent/highly professional job replacing the old Fuse box. The cost was reasonable! I am satisfied with their work and I would not hesitate to recommend them. Note: I am located in Hawaii. read more

Great service and quality work! Real professionals. Pay for the service you get. I feel my hard earned money was spent very well with the quality of service I received with this company. If you have any questions or follow-up problems, just text them, and they had a technician at my place to fix it asap. I had my whole panel replaced, and I couldn't be happier. I wish you could see the before. You would be stocked, literally. The panel I had before was unsafe and just sloppy. I was not able to change a breaker without certain death. Now, I am able to pop out and snap in new breakers when I need and have zero risk of electrical fires. read more

Mahalo to Peter and Josh! During the busy holiday season and with Christmas lights hanging around the house, you do not want the outlets around the house to quit working. Searched on YELP for an electrician. Peter Gomez reached out via phone. He was professional and answered my questions. Arranged for Josh to come out the next morning to take a look at the outlets. Arrived in a timely manner and called me of his arrival. After inspecting the areas, he knew what the issue was and completed it within time provided. He also walked around checking on other possible not working outlets and found it all working properly. Josh is a local boy, very young and very knowledgeable. "Word of mouth" is part of my helping others and supporting local. This is one company that I would like everyone to know that they are awesome. Please give them a call or visit their website for more information. read more

Our family planned a staycation for the weekend. It was early morning and my husband and I were trying to get last minute things done before our pet sitter arrived. We were scheduled to leave home at 10:30 am. We have a huge koi pond out in the front yard and additional fish ponds. My husband discovered that the circuit breaker to pump for the ponds had switched off and the pumps were not working. A portion of the pantry and laundry room as well as our garage door were not working either. Imagine the frustration as my hubby tries to figure out the problem. I suggested calling an electrician. I went to Yelp and one of the first companies to pop up was True Power Electrical Services, LLC. I didn't have time to comb through Yelp reading reviews to choose a company so I called True Power. The company owner Peter answered the phone on the half of the first ring! How wonderful right??? I explained the situation to Peter, and I'm pretty sure I sounded frantic. I also conveyed to him that we needed to leave home at about 10:30 am. Peter informed me that one of his workers would be out our way in Mililani and would come as soon as he finished a prior job. About 15 minutes after my call I was sent a text informing me that John would be arriving at our home within 30 minutes. John arrived a short time later and went through our electrical system and circuit box. We have an attic above our garage that electrical lines run through. John went up there and he suspected that mice may have chewed up the power lines causing this problem and suggested we call our exterminator. I asked if this was something that may cause a fire down the road. John informed us that if we were concerned about the lines in the attic, we could rewire them in the garage explaining several options. He said he would write up a few estimates for the work to be done at a later time. John was able to fix our current problem and the electricity was restored. This was all done within an hour of his arrival to our home. We were so relieved!! This problem would have been horrible on any day, but having this occur on the morning we were to be away for the weekend was over the top stressful! I am so very thankful and grateful for the owner Peter Gomez answering my call and getting John out so quickly! They both exude such professionalism, and empathy and the customer service is beyond a thousand stars! I would HIGHLY recommend True Power Electrical Company to anyone that is looking for outstanding service at a reasonable price. Thank you Peter & John for saving not only the day, but our whole weekend! read more

Quick response and fit our timeline (within 72 hours) Jospeh came out and was super polite and informative. Did a quick discount and answered a few other questions. Would recommend this team in the future. read more

Got an acceptable estimate and they started the work. John did an awesome job with my wiring upgrades. He added an outlet to the garage storage and updated wiring for two light switches so that I could install timers for the bathroom vents. Would definitely recommend and will use them again. read more

Here is my HECO review and review for True Power. Here's the main breaker for our unit that only HECO has access to. For a week we had little to no power at times. Lights flickering, lights dimming, no stove, no hot water, had to spend money for the laundromat. Hired an electrician, Josh, who said we needed HECO to come out because they have seen this before and it's usually the main breaker. But since HECO has tags on the panels, they cannot access it without permission. We called Hawaiian Electric multiple times explaining the issues at hand. We told them what our electrician said. But every time we were met with: your voltage looks fine on our end, it's likely something in your unit, your panel probably needs to be replaced and never, yes we should come out and look. We trusted their opinion. But enough was enough; the keiki couldn't take showers and we couldn't cook meals. We asked maintenance/HOA to call HECO and get them out to meet our electrician, which they did. And here is the result. A melted breaker. This is exactly what our electrician warned about. Lucky our electrician from True Power advocated for us to get HECO out. This easily could have caused a big ass fire for our unit or the complex. Why do we pay so much for electricity and are met with complacency? We are highly unsatisfied with HECO's service. We highly recommend True Power. Mahalo Josh and Peter, excellent work! read more

True Power Electrical Services - Melted main breaker that HECO assumed was fine. - Electricians Near Me - Waianae, Hawaii

Our ceiling fan with light came loose, which hangs over our bed in the master bedroom. I called yesterday afternoon, and Peter gave great advice, I was able to secure an appointment window for today and he requested I text my info. Very efficient, and I especially love that they serve the Waianae community. I forgot his name that came through today to my appointment. I want to call him Joshua, but I can't be certain. He was very informative, very quick, and friendly. Two outlets were replaced, and a pull chain light fixture I purchased was installed. Awesome experience from beginning to end. Thank you, guys, for being so efficient and flexible. read more

Used true power to fix some issues at my moms house. Other companies wanted to charge the same rate but insisted on 4 hour minimum. Thats crazy! Paying for 4 hours for a job that took 30 minutes. Josh, the electrician came in, fixed the wiring and installed two ceiling fixtures with time to spare. He even asked if there was anything else he could do. My only regret is not having gotten more fixtures and replacing all the old ones. I will definitely be using these guys again, Josh was awesome. read more

Very helpful and gave me great advice on how to resolve my issue being it was on Super Bowl Sunday. Thank you #uselocal

We needed a ceiling light installed in our new nursery and wanted to make sure everything was solid so we reached out to True Power. They sent someone within less than 24 and he was punctual, professional, and efficient. Reasonably priced. Really appreciate their services. read more

Very fast and did great work. I thought I bought everything I needed, it of course I did not. He talked me through it and even went out to grab what was needed. Looks super professional and works great. Mahalo for great work. Will definitely be using them again. read more

They were prompt and figured out my simple electrical issue: my old control panel needs a hard push to activate its switches. Painful and expensive lesson. I'm giving 2 stars because for that it cost over $200 with tax. I understand paying for someone's time, it's $195 per hour. I just thought I would be charged for the ACTUAL AMOUNT OF TIME, which was a fraction of that. I was told this is how all electricians charge. I will say that this is not ethical or fair, but it's how many businesses make a good profit. I don't know if electricians are using Hawaiian Electric as their ethical gauge, because that would explain why they don't see any issue. There are other companies on the island that don't behave this way, and I call it integrity and decency. -I just did NOT find that with this company. read more

We had an emergency request at my part time job and needed an electrician. We called Peter and he walked us through to help troubleshoot. He helped us out in a pinch even when he didn't have to. If I ever need electrical services in the future, he'll be the first company I call because of the Aloha he showed. read more

Peter and his team are great! My requests are always responded within the hour and within 48 hrs there is an electrician on the scene that has assisted with numerous new outlet installs (inside and outside), ceiling fixtures, fan fixtures and light fixtures. I always recommend True Power Electrical to all of my friends and clients. read more

Part of our Electric in our home went out and we didn't know who to turn to. After speaking with HECO, I was told to look for an Electrician. I immediately went to YELP for reviews and found True Power Electricity was in our area. I read the reviews and called and spoke to Pete who answered right away. My Husband and I shared our situation and Pete had scheduled for Josh to come out the next Morning and our situation was resolved within 2 hours. Thank you so much Pete & Josh! read more

We reached out to True Power with to come out last minute for some electrical work and Peter was very quick to respond and sent someone out the next day! Very professional and helpful. We are happy with the level of customer service we received. I highly recommend. read more

Peter was very easy and professional to deal with. Texts to let you know when they are on their way and when the job is done so you can have that for your records. You can tell he is honest and has integrity and even suggested I donate the replaced fans that were still working rather than just throwing them away. Pricing was completely fair and in line with what other legitimate electricians quoted me. *As a heads up, the first company I contacted is the one that has the most positive reviews on Yelp and that was a horrible experience. I feel scammed. They charged a $200 assessment fee to come out before they would even quote me and when they did give me the quote it was FIVE TIMES the going rate. Now I'm supposed to pay $200 for 5 minutes for their insanely high quote. I'm so glad I turned them down and went with Peter at True Power Electrical Services. I will definitely consider this company in the future. It's a small island. Integrity is everything. read more

Very responsive, working with them to complete a project another company failed to do. Will post update soon

Electricity is something we never want to mess with or Google....We are really grateful for Peter Gomez who came out and showed us some things about our electrical panel that we were unaware of. He also replaced all of our hard wire smoke detectors. They were original to the house and all decided to blare non stop at 2 am!! Pricing was exactly what I would expect it to be for the expertise. Customer service was fabulous from the moment we first reached out. read more

Thanks to Yelp and the good reviews I chose to go with True Power El. They were quick and scheduled an appointment for the following morning. Joshua was professional and courteous. Solved my problem right away. read more

Would definitely recommend! Peter got back to me immediately with a reasonable quote and was quick to set up a time to come help with my wiring projects (replacing two horrid fluorescent lights on our lanai with new pendants and one sketchy wall outlet with a safer one that he had on hand). It's often difficult to find people willing to come to the N. Shore and he had no qualms with it, so more bonus points for that. Peter totally took care of me -- he notified me when he was on his way and expected to arrive, was friendly, highly professional and spent time to talk me through a couple of project options. He knew exactly what he was doing, so I left him to it and he and knocked everything out in just about an hour. Would (and will) give him a call for future projects. read more

It's businesses like this one that make life a little easier for the rest of us. Peter (the Owner) is as down to earth as they come and will help you with whatever is needed to make your electrical needs and wants come to fruition. I asked him for guidance and help with choosing and installing light fixtures and dimmable outlet switches. I had a main kitchen LED dimmable light installed along with two hallway LED lights installed. He set up a time to pick up the items and then set up another time to install the items. The work that was done was professional and quick. We have already made plans for more work to be completed! I will absolutely recommend Peter and his business to friends and family. read more

The light went out in a couple of our rooms on Thursday early morning. I called True Power and got service and they fixed the problem the same day. The estimate was up front, unlike many other businesses. The cost was fair. I will definitely work with this company in the future. Mahalo nui loa Peter and Josh! read more

Found my go to electrician! Needed requiring of an old house. Came next day after I called, John was very informative and did not try to sell me anything I didn't need.

My home has had minor electrical issues since it was built 20 years ago. Lately, some of them have become more prominent. Recently, I noticed my small oven shorting out and the outlets having burn marks and the faint smell of smoke. Luckily that day, a friend of mine had a card from this company, True Power Electrical, who had rewired her house so I decided to give them a call. The electrician spoke with me in detail about my issue, he told me what not to do and scheduled a time the next day to come to my home. He gave me a quote and I told him to just do the work. Not only did he fix that outlet, he fixed the corresponding outlets to the breaker that controlled them and my problem was fixed! I can't express how happy I am. I scheduled him to install new ceiling fans and fix light switches in my house as well. Every single switch and fan is working wonderfully. He made it look easy and I know from my own personal struggle trying to install a fan that it is not as easy as it looks. I highly recommend this company. The owner electrician is knowledgeable, kind, efficient, and fairly priced. He did a great job, gave me some helpful tips and saved me from potentially having a house fire. I will continue to use them in the future. 5/5 stars! read more

Awesome service! I blew out my power to my whole house while installing a water heater timer . Did it before but this one was a little different. You don't know what ... you don't know! The breakers were on but no juice! In a panic I found these guys on google and Peter picked up the phone on a Sunday after 5 pm . He walked me through on how to reset my power from a main breaker with no judgement and had someone out before I got out of bed the next morning. Quality work! Will definitely use again and recommend read more
