Excellence Electric is by far the BEST electrical company I've ever used and I will now continue to use them when needed. Ive had some bad experiences in the past with other electrical companies, but Excellence Electric definitely provided a great service. They did an amazing job and exceeded my expectations. They explained to me what needed to be done and also took great care of my home. I highly recommend this company!!!

Excellent service and communication throughout the job. Ray and his son Ray Jr, went above and beyond when we had a problem with our mini split that we installed ourselves. His son spent an extra hour to help us diagnose the problem. Will definitely use them again!

I lost power in the back half of my home, and after being given the run around by my previous electrician, I decided to search Angie's list for an alternate electrician. After a few minutes of browsing, I stumbled upon Raymond and specifically chose him because of his ridiculously high Angie's list rating. After speaking to Raymond, we made an appointment and, to my surprise, he showed up early. This was a great sign since I'm used to servicing professionals either: 1) showing up late, or 2) giving me a 4-hour window and still arriving late. So far, so good. On Raymond's first visit he did a great job assessing the problem and gave me an estimate to fix the electrical short, but he also recommended other electrical repairs that would bring my old 1955 home up to code. After reviewing his proposal, I was a bit depressed since I knew I couldn’t afford all of the repairs that I knew I needed to tackle in the near future, so I decided to give him a call to let him know. Raymond was very understanding and offered to come out to my home for a second time to hunt for the electrical short in my home. On his second visit, he arrived early (again!) and quickly found a shorted electrical outlet that was causing the power loss in the back half of my house. He quickly replaced my shorted outlet and patiently educated me on a few DIY repairs that he recommended me tackling to help safeguard the safety of my family. I was very relieved and happy to have found such an honest and proficient electrician. I highly recommend Raymond and I will definitely be reaching out to him going forward for future repairs/upgrades. Thanks again Raymond for all your help!

As a Realtor, I make it a rule before I refer anyone out, I have to use them for myself first. Met Raymond while he did an electrical inspection for a house that was in escrow. Showed up on time, courteous, professional and extremely informative to explain to the client and myself what was going on with the home. With me in the market to swap an electrical panel for my new electric car, I asked him to go over and give me an estimate for the swap. I felt the pricing was incredibly reasonable for the work that was needed for my home. The job was done perfectly and have zero complaints whatsoever. Since then, I have kept Raymonds phone number in my phone book as he is now my trusted electrician that will not take advantage of my clients. Since then, I have referred numerous clients and those clients have referred their friends and family. Definitely a great and knowledgeable electrician!

This is my 4th time hiring Excellence Electric and every time I have been extremely satisfied with their work. Ray always promptly answers my calls & gets me on his schedule. This time he fit me in the next day. His worker was there on time, worked the entire time until the job was complete, cleaned up everything so you never new they were there. His worker was very professional & knowledgeable of what he needed to do to complete the job. I will be hiring them again & again. Thanks Dijon

We took 3 quotes. Excellence Electric provided competitive price. Based on rating we decided to go with them. Raymond did excellent work. He called back immediately any time I had any question. He took care of permit and any permission, coordinated with SCE. All the work is upto code and delivered as promised. No hassle, no issue.

We were replacing our older original 100 watt panel with a modern 200 watt one. I had gotten quotes from 3 highly rated companies, and among those, I chose Excellence Electric to do the job. I am a detailed oriented person, so I had a lot of questions, and Raymond, the owner, was very responsive in getting back to me with answers. I was home during the install which took about 5 hours, and it went pretty good. We had our inside walls opened still from a recent whole house Repipe, so it made it a little easier when routing the ground line to the front of the house; this line gets strapped to the incoming water with a clamp, and it is terminated to two grounding rods which were included in the install. We had them install the 2nd rod near the panel at the side of the house for aesthetics. The inspection was done by the City the next week, and a few days later, they came back to patch up the stucco.

They had to cut concrete, dig a trench, lay conduit and rewire my pool pump, pool light, and sprinkler controller. The job was completed in one day. They filled in a hole that I had dug, cleaned up, and replanted the rose bushes that they had to remove for the trench. Clean, neat, and very competent. I will hire them again in a heartbeat for anything else I need. Thanks!

Excellence Electric was fabulous. They were professional, courteous and on time. The work was done flawlessly and at the agreed upon price. I felt the price for that large amount of work was more than fair. They took care of both the government and utilities permits and inspections. The one small thing they forgot was to come back and touch up the paint around the electric panel outside. But I would hire them again for my next project. I was entirely pleased with their team, their price and their work. I have not had any problems with all the new electrical work, wiring, lighting and outlets they added.
Description of Work: They replaced and upgraded my electric panel and the breakers. They installed a new front porch light. They installed new GFI outlets and other outlets. They installed an outside grounding wire. They installed a ceiling fan and wall remote.

Raymond showed up on time. Explained exactly what needed to be done. Was very professional and showed the utmost respect and care. As a single woman I really appreciated his kindness. He did exactly what was explained and went above and beyond what he explained. Fixing what the previous person did incorrectly. After he was finished I called with some concerns. He showed up immediately. Addressed my concerns. I give Raymond and his team a A++. Top quality electrician. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I couldn't be happier with Raymond and Excellence Electric. After getting a referral from a neighbor I reached out to Raymond and got a prompt response and a visit for a detailed estimate. The process was fast once we were ready ...no pressure from Raymond to start the job, which I really appreciated. The finished project came out great and everything was inspected and up to code. Raymond did all the legwork from scheduling Edison to survey the location of the panel, to meeting with inspectors and finally coming back to patch and stucco around the new panel.
Description of Work: I had my original electrical panel upgraded and and installed a dedicated 30 amp outlet for a car charger.

Quality work and outstanding service! Raymond gave us a quote, explained exactly what needed to be done, and scheduled everything in a timely manner. After the work was complete, we had a couple of power issues, neither of which turned out to be due to Raymond’s work, never the less, he responded promptly each time I called him (even after business hours). He takes great pride in his work and his service is second to none.

Raymond came out on a Saturday morning within about a hour of answering my call. Quickly checked panel circuits and the breaker that had faulted. I had already done some preliminary trouble shooting, and he confirmed that it was likely the old breaker that was the problem since there were no other visible signs of faulty or damaged wiring, or appliances with shorted circuits. He discussed the options for the short term solution and made sensible recommendations for the long term solution. Ray ended up replacing two breakers and rewiring the connections from the old breakers. His charges were very reasonable for the work and time spent, and he did not charge for a weekend service call. Ray was straight forward, didn't waste time, and didn't try to sell a lot of unnecessary work. I would highly recommend Ray for electrical work and plan to use him to install some exterior lighting around the front of our house. Coming from a long time B licensed contractor, this is as good as it gets.

I would absolutely recommend Raymond and his crew. They were very professional, cleaned up everything and beat their time schedule. However, the saying is that the proof of a service business is what they do when a problem arises and in this area I would give Raymond a grade of A+++++. After installation and SCE site approval, SCE made a mistake on an address and inadvertently turned off our power on the day the city was to come and approve (address typo at SCE). Called Raymond and he came out immediately. Once it was discovered that his work was not the issue, he still stayed all day and worked with the city and SCE to correct the problem and get power restored. This was to us above and beyond as it was an SCE clerical error and not his work, which passed city inspection without any problems. Can't recommend Raymond and his crew enough.

Very well, despite a surprise with pre-existing substandard pool power feed feed from an unrelated job 9 years ago. They rolled with it, adjusted, and we got it all fixed and done without a price change. All workers have excellent attitudes and work hard all day. Raymond is a pleasure to work with as well.
