"Electric vehicle charging station. I'd hire him again, but just gave 4 stars on value because electricians are expensive. His prices are probably fair, I'm just not used to San Diego pricing yet."

"Joe was on it the second I put out a request on Angi (I chose J. Casillas Electric because of so many great reviews). It became an emergency when my tenants power was going crazy and felt in danger so we had cut the main. Joe met my tenant within 2 hours that day.

Over 20 years of experience in the San Diego residential market. My passion is helping homeowners create the 'perfect feel' to their home through creative lighting and electrical solutions. I work closely with homeowners to find out their particular 'style' as well as budget, and then bring my considerable expertise to finding the best value-conscious solutions. I am an expert in trouble-shooting electrical issues, and will give you an accurate estimate of expected costs before beginning work. I have experience in all phases of electrical work including ground-up whole house, remodel, kitchens and baths, electrical panel trouble-shooting and replacement; as well as energy-efficient lighting and "smart home" solutions; and also commercial repairs. I look forward to helping you with your electrical needs!

"Keith and his people were nothing short of fantastic! I tried multiple other local companies who came out for about 5 mins to give me a quote and then threw a blanket/standard (and over-priced) quote in my face while telling me it would be months until they could get to it. Keith and one of his best guys showed up, spent over an hour looking at my panel, sub panel and the existing electrical footprint and listening to my end goal requests and then gave me multiple detailed quote options and solutions! They got right to work and everything was done in a few days. Keith was great with communication throughout the entire process! I would absolutely call him again if needed, but I won?t need to? the work was beyond professional! Thanks Keith!"

Electrical services FAQs

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:

  • Are you a full-time electrician?

  • Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?

  • What level of experience do you have as an electrician?

  • Can you please share three references?

  • Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?

  • What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?

  • Will any subcontractors be performing the work?

  • Are permits and inspections required?

  • Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?

  • What is your schedule?

  • Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?

Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate. 

Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Certified” badge. Angi Certified businesses meet our standards for certification, which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
