This is the 2nd time it has been our good fortune to have Mr. Reyes as our electrician. For each service call he was prompt, listened intently, worked smartly and effectively. Most importantly he either resolved our issue(s) or provided options for safe and cost effective results. Mr. Reyes' visit was as comfortable as a visit from an old friend who is very well educated and certified in all things electrical.

Ari, James, and Jesus were all wonderful. They did a great job and got it all done in a day. They were very straightforward and didn't charge extra for the parts needed with our agreed upon price. I would definitely use them again and are referring our neighbors. Services: Light fixture repair, General repairs, Electrical outlet & switch repair, Electrical panel replacement or upgrading

I called for an estimate and they gave me an estimate alright. I almost died right there. Now maybe im just not with the times but tell me this sounds right. Replace 2 recepticles (take out the old and install new) and install a ceiling fan (lightbox and wall switch already there) = $1,294. I declined but was stuck paying a fee. Does this sound right? I havent checked them with BBB but im going to right after this.

Do not bother calling these guys, they are straight up highway robbers. They wanted to charge me $3,300 to extend a brass fitting 1 Foot. Wtf? I think they make their money from $99 consultation charges and give ridiculous bids to purposely not get the job so they guy can keep going to these consultations all day. Shit company with shit pricing!

Mariano and his team at Powell Electric are truly the best. If you have major electrical needs (or minor) do not hesitate to call them. We had a massive upgrade in the new home and Mariano came up with the best solution that completely solved our problems and was honest and fully available during the work. Ari and the team who came to work on the house are all standouts and true professionals. We highly recommend Powell and are grateful for the high quality work, attention to detail and hands on approach that everyone on the team provided to us. Thank you!

Stephen was very professional. With a pleasant smile, he introduced himself, put protective footies over his shoes and was ready to work. I needed three smoke detectors installed. He discussed pricing, warranty and a senior discount. He also replaced the bulbs in the chandelier in my stairwell. The work was very neat, he left the areas clean. I will request Stephen again if need be.
