10:30 PM all of our lights and power in our house went out. We called Accurate's dispatch and about 30 minutes later we received a call from one of the technicians, Mike. Mike went over some things over the phone that we might try to see if the power could be restored but later concluded that our main breaker must be broken. About 11:30 Mike arrived and started working on the breaker. He was very professional and knowledgeable as well as efficient. He worked in the dark at the side of our house with a headlamp and was very organized in his process. About 45 minutes later our power was restored. We will definitely use Accurate's service again as well as give referrals to our friends!

They were immediate, accommodating my difficult schedule for the day. The told me exactly what was wrong, what they proposed to do and what it would cost. I was most impressed by the office person who gave me the credentials and policies of the company.

They don't give quotes over the phone, but if they come out and you don't use their services, you have to pay $59. They came out, showed up on time and were EXTREMELY professional, respectful and courteous. I can't say enough about their professionalism. Accurate was the first electrician I called, and the first quote I received. I have 4 outlets that suddenly stopped working one day. To get them working again, they quoted me $442 (this was AFTER their 15% discount). This was FAR more than I was expecting. There were a few other things I wanted done on top of that, if the price was right, but this price was already too high for me. I paid them $59 for the visit and bid them farewell.

[Member name removed], I'm sorry you chose not to use our services due to the price, and I completely understand that $442 is a lot of money. Our policy is to provide all clients with a price upfront before any work is started. We don't want to surprise anyone at the end of the job with an unexpected invoice amount. And, when clients know the price up, they can let our electricians do their job and thoroughly clean up without feeling the need to look over the electrician's shoulder to make sure he's being productive. Troubleshooting presents a very unique situation because we can't be exactly sure what we will find until we spend quite a bit of time disassembling the electrical system to find out what is going on. Our $442 troubleshooting task ensures that we will get those outlets back up and running. It covers all sorts of issues that we may find; bad breakers, bad outlets, loose connections, broken wires, damaged equipment, etc... The only thing it doesn't cover is the replacement of whole runs of wire (A much more extensive job typically due to rodent damage in the attic or walls). Also, I hope our electricians told you that if we start troubleshooting and find that it was something very simple like a breaker being tripped we don't charge the $442! We adjust the price downward for situations like that, but we don't raise the price if it takes us twice as long as we expected. Although our electricians are licensed, state certified and educated on the latest technology, even the best guys can get stumped every once in a while. The worst situation we encountered involved us repairing wiring in a very old house with lots of "Mickey Mouse" wiring that took 2 guys 1.5 days to complete. You guessed it...the price was still just $442. That is a very rare situation, but I mention it to illustrate our commitment to creating very, very happy clients. I hope you will consider giving us a try if you have any other electrical needs. And remember, all our work includes our "Accurate Promise"- If you aren't completely delighted with our work, we'll make it right or you don't pay...simple as that! Regards, Jeff

Mike showed up on the agreed upon date to have the work completed wiht his partner. They both worked diligently throughout the day to complete the necessary. Mike and his partner were on time, polite, clean, and the customer service was excellent. Since the work has been completed we have not had any issues with the the electricty tripping all the power shutting down, etc.
Description of Work: The main circut breaker was tripping and all of the electricty in the house would go off. Mike came out and did a complete assessment. He gave a very detailed estimate with four options and pricing for each option which included details of work to be completed. After selecting the option of our choice Mike gave a very detailed summary of work that would occur before the main circut breaker was going to be replaced, what would occur on the day the work was to be completed, and the necessary icity inspection afterwards.

At each phone call I was greeted with a helpful voice, who took care of my requests promptly. They made arrangements with my tenants for access to the property and got back to me with options. Once I had made my decision, they proceeded to make all arrangements with everyone involved and all the work went smoothly. I received phone call updates and pictures upon completion and always worked with pleasant, efficient people from beginning to end. My tenant is happy and I am happy, and stress levels remained low during the process, which is wonderful!
Description of Work: My tenant had some electrical added in the garage that I was not aware of so I needed to make sure that was safe. Additionally, I wanted to change the garage door and clean up the lighting in the garage so I asked for an idea of what should be done.

I was very impressed with Mike's ability to clearly outline for me the problem. He presented four repair options to me. I decided it was time to update and replace the old electrical panel. Mike contacted the city, pulled the permit and kept me apprised every step of the way. I decided to go with a 200 amp new panel so hopefully I won't have to replace it again. Mike and Joe arrived at the house at 8:00am as planned. I was told the job would be complete the same day and it was . It turned out to be a very cold, miserable day. Mike and Joe worked in rainand hale. Because the city spotted a new location on the opposite side of the house for the new panel, they had to run the lines under the house. Temporary lines are currently connected to give me electricity until the city comes and connects it to their pole. Mike made this such an easy straight forward project. I appreciate that I always knew what was going to be done. Accurate Electrical Services is very thorough. They stayed very late to ensure that every light/appliance in each room came back on and then labeled each breaker for me too. I plan to rewire the house. This is big step in that direction. I highly recommend Accurate Electrical Services.
Description of Work: My 1924 home has old wiring. In February, I started getting some internal surges. I called the city power company first. They pointed out to me that the problem was a frayed line within the meter. I called electricians in Angie's List for estimates. I chose Accurate Electrical Services because I was impressed with the professionalism and straight forward pricing. Mike P. was lead on the project. He handled all communications with the city, permitting and always updated me on the status of the project. The project cost a bit more due to the fact that the panel had to be placed on the opposite side of the house.

Eric was prompt, friendly and very professional. I am the curious type and he took the effort to explain some of the recommended maintenance steps that we can all do as homeowners. Although Accurate Electrical Services is not going to be the lowest cost provider, having the proper knowledge and experience mean the job gets done right the first time. It would be more expensive if I hired an unqualified person, wasted time and replaced the wrong items.
Description of Work: Eric S. of Accurate Electrical Services came out on consecutive days to perform electrical work on two properties this week, one in Arcadia and the other in Irvine. At the Arcadia location, Eric troubleshot and replaced a defective bathroom GFI switch. He also performed preventative maintenance on the main electrical panel. At the Irvine location, Eric troubleshot and fixed a loose neutral wire that caused a ceiling light to malfunction. He also performed preventative maintenance on the main and secondary electrical panels.

Their work was excellent. The invoice was not the cheapest I ve seen, but their service was definitely the best I ve seen: they took a scientific approach, they told me up-front what the various options were (with respective prices), they did the work (with shoe covers on their feet in the house), and they cleaned up after themselves. VERY VERY PROFESSIONAL. Highly recommended. (By the way, the office staff was very good, too: great communication.)
Description of Work: I was very impressed with the precision with which Eric and Mike tracked down a problem outlet causing a breaker to trip. They took a close look at the breaker panel, then the breaker. Then they started to work in the house to troubleshoot to find WHICH device was causing the breaker to trip.

They fixed within 3 hours. They did not skip a step. Even Sherry the secretary called back to see if everything was correct. I just can't say enough about this company.

Eric first arrived when I had Edison review my panel due to a partial power failure in my home. The Edison representative found that my major problem was a malfunction of one of my main breakers as well as some other "minor" wiring difficulties that could lead to future problems for me. I contacted Accurate Electrical Services from Angie's List and from the moment my call was answered to the final steps in the project I could not have been more pleased. Eric arrived on time for the initial inspection. He was prompt as well as taking the time to explain and confirm what the representative from Edison had informed me about the problems related to my electrical panel. He restored my power so that we could safely use the panel until he could return to do the replacement after explaining my options to me regarding the work that should be considered for my electrical panel. Now get this. Eric and Mike arrived not only ONLY TIME BUT 5 MINUTES EARLY!!!! Both men acted very professional and answered my countless questions with patience. The area was prepared for work and afterwards the area was actually cleaner then when they had arrived. Several times Eric and Mike walked me through the process explaining their policy and warranty related to their work. After the work was completed to MY SATISFACTION, company policy, and had left, I then received a follow-up phone call from their office to be sure that I was satisfied with their job and professionalism. THANK YOU Accurate Electrical Services for making my job feel as the most important job you had for the day! I would without a second thought re-hire this company and team to do any of my future electrical work.

Excellent - the office staff answered the phone (not voice mail) and scheduled an electrician to come out the next business day. We were selling our house, and during an open house a section of our lights went out. We needed a professional evaluation and repair to reassure a future buyer. We researched Angie's List and called Accurate Electrical. The electrician showed up on time, did some testing and found the source of the problem. He did not try to over sell us on doing more than what was required. He had the parts in his truck and repair was performed during that visit. We were very happy with the results and the price. The company is professional and the electrician showed up on time and did quality work. That's what we were looking for and that's what we got. Thank you so much Accurate Electrical!!

The lady who answered the phone was pleasant and helpful. She kept me updated as to Eric's (the electrician) arrival. Eric arrived and was neat, clean and very capable. We went over the problems I was having with the outside electrical outlets. Eric went back to his truck for 10 mins. and came back with a written diagnosis and estimate on how much the proposed work would cost. We agreed on getting the outlets working that would effect getting Christmas lights plugged in. Eric explained to me why I should use low voltage led christmas lights (to save money on my electric bill) and how to string the lights to get the effect I wanted. Eric fixed all the outlets and showed me where the switches were to turn them on and off. This house is old and it was confusing as to what switches went to what. I will definitely use Accurate Electrical again. I will ask for Eric. Eric did a great job. You guys are in my "contacts" on my i phone. Thank you

We had this dead timer on our front porch light; when we looked inside to change it ourselves, it looked a bit intimidating so we didn't touch it and called Accurate Electrical. Called for appt on Monday, and got booked for Wednesday. The call to the office was fine, gals were nice; gave us the quality pledge & said dispatch would call us back shortly to book a time. Dispatch called back like they said they would. We were told Eric would be coming out and they would call us when he was approx 30 min away...and they did! We liked Eric a lot. He was extremely nice, professional and fixed the switch in no time. We had him give us estimates for installing 2 ceiling fans, as well. Eric didn't rush through the job just to get to the next one. All in all, the whole experience was great start to finish. Walked away feeling that Eric was a new friend and that Accurate Electrical was the neighborhood company at the end of the block. We will definitely be calling them again and will recommend them to everyone else.

I initially called Accurate Electricians after finding on them on Angie's List. We were in the middle of doing some work with a general contractor including putting in recessed LED lights. The contractor we were working with sent his "electrician" over 3 times and he still hadn't managed to make much progress on the work, because he never came prepared and cared more about his personal appointments than our job. We were quite unhappy, because his slow pace was preventing other work from happening (notably installing a new HVAC in our attic.) At this point, I scheduled an appointment with Accurate Electricians. They came over on the other contractor's day off and I gave them the task of installing several recessed LED lights, moving a ceiling fan/light, installing a new outlet for a printer and fax machine, and installing 2 exterior flood lights. They gave me a quote, and after I agreed to their price, they pulled permits, gathered the materials they needed, and got to work. They worked all day without taking a break. Near the end of the day, they found a long dead rat in the attic (which was annoying since the other contractor had supposedly just cleaned the attic) and I told them if they pulled the rat out, I would buy them Subway sandwiches. They tossed the rat in the garbage but then declined my offer. They continued working and finished the job perfectly. These guys aren't the cheapest, but they are worth what they charge. If you want to hire professional and pleasant people, call these guys. The last thing I want to add is this, before you hire an electrician, do yourself a favor and make sure they have a license! The general contractor we previously hired sent an unlicensed "electrician" to our house to do electrical work and the results are not good cosmetically or otherwise. Safety hazards were created that could have resulted in our home burning down or someone being killed. With the Accurate Electricians, on the other hand, you can rest assured the work will be completed in a completely professional manner and you will not need to worry about your safety when the job is done.
Description of Work: My review covers work performed by Eric and Curtis. Please see longer description below & don't hesitate to call these guys. They are terrific!

I called Accurate on Tuesday and was able to arrange for a service appointment on Thursday. Eric and Curtis were the electricians that arrived on time and reviewed the different options. They found the most simplistic and reasonable approach and had the work completed in less than an hour. As part of the service, they checked my electrical box and advised that the box was very old, had lost its UL listing due to the number of fires that had resulted from problems with the box. They pointed out the specifics of the box and suggested I google the box to verify that issues others had protected. After confirming the box issues, I requested an estimate for replacing the box which was right where the estimate had been when I had prior work completed on the house years ago. Eric and Curtis did an excellent job of moving the electrical, installed the control unit, and cleaned up any sign of their work. After the service Accurate called to make sure I was happy with the service provided that morning. My experience with Accurate was exceptional, from the first call, the email reminder for the appointment, the call to advise they were on the way, the actual service, and the follow up. Rare in this day and age to find such a professional contractor.
Description of Work: I was putting in a new sprinkler system which required electrical for the control unit. I needed electrical power moved to the new location of the control unit.

We've had a number of electrical outlets out for some time. Coming into the holiday season, I wanted them operational so that we could display our lovely Christmas lights. Accurate Electrical came so highly recommended on Angie's that I decided my first Angie's experience would be best if I went with them. I figured while I had someone here, I'd like my outdated dining room chandelier replaced. 1) A very peppy, happy lady answered my call. Got right down to what I needed. Scheduled me for 2 days later. Sent reminder email & phone call. 2) Mike arrived perfectly on time. Gave me the company "pledge". Allowed me to explain what was wrong. Gave me some basic education so I could understand what he would do during the diagnosis. Perservered when the original hypothesis turned out wrong. Maintained a positive attitude when the job took longer than expected. 3) Staged the area to install the chandelier. Cleaned up afterward. 4) Generally a good experience. 5) I will hire Accurate & Mike in the future.

The lamp we wanted installed was an antique that had been given to us. What we didn't know until Mike showed up from Accurate Electrical, is that some of the parts were missing and we needed to have the lamp rewired and purchase new parts in order for it to be hung from a sloping ceiling. The good news out of this is that we had another lamp that would work in the entrance way. Mike Peratoner was very knowledgeable, arrived on time, explained in detail what needed to be done, was careful to lay down material to protect our hardwood floors, and cleaned up after himself. He did an excellent job!!! I would highly recommend Accurate Electrical Services and most especially would recommend Mike as the man to take care of the job. Mike also had good things to say about working for Accurate Electric, which is something you don't generally hear from employees. We will be telling our friends about the great service we received. My lamp looks beautiful and I actually like it better than the original one we wanted to install.
Description of Work: We called to have a hanging lamp installed in the entrance way to our house.

To say I was a little worried when I had an electrical problem that I couldn?t solve myself would be an understatement. We all have heard the horror stories of tradesmen fabricating problems and inflating prices. Well, my experience with Eric Smith and the folks at Accurate Electrical services cold not have been further from that stereotype. After reviewing the options on Angie?s list and selecting Accurate Electrical Services as my choice, I waited to see how it would play out. First off, it was after Noon and crucial that the work be completed that day. When I called and expressed my requirement they were very understanding and began working to find a resource to fix the problem. From my first call, they were pleasant and communicated with me every step of the process while they worked to book an electrician. Within 15 minutes, they called to let me know they were able to send an electrician out that day. Eric Smith, the Accurate Electrical Services electrician arrived at my door greeted me and presented me with a card that said he was making a pledge to me to? 1.) Respect and care for my property. 2.) Wear shoe covers and keep my home clean. 3.) Provide multiple work options. 4.) Provide high quality and code compliant work. 5.) Not collect payment unless I was delighted with the work. I explained to Eric that I had some construction background but feared working electrical issues because of the risk if the work is not done properly. At that point, I had done some trouble shooting and replaced one GFI receptacle. Eric explained that he would take a look and provide me with his findings along with an estimate for the work needed. After reviewing what I had done and Eric confirming I was on the right path, I began to feel more comfortable and felt assured I had made the right choice in service provider. Eric was a consummate professional and worked very methodically to trouble shoot in a very logical approach until the problem was resolved. Every step of the way he kept me informed, communicated options, and displayed a level of courtesy and professionalism that is very rare these days. I found myself thinking how cool it was for me to find Eric and a company that really understood and delivered on a promise of customer service. I emphatically endorse Accurate Electrical Services and would not hesitate one moment to recommend them to anyone. My experience with Eric was a real blessing.
Description of Work: Trouble shoot and fix an electrical problem whereby a GFI outlet was tripped and would not reset. After I replaced the GFI, it still would not reset indicating to me a short and a serious electrical problem that I did not have the tools or expertise to fix.

Member, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We work very hard to change the sterotype you expressed in your review. We are please that you don't consider us to be like the other "tradesmen." I am pleased that you wrote about our Pledge Card also. I want to note that we live up to everything written on it. Although we haven't had any clients refuse to pay due to them not being completely delighted, if that day ever comes we will honor our pledge. Thanks again, Jeff President

Contact with the company was firstclass. The scheduled appointment was made well within the needed time. Reminder calls were made 24 hours prior and within a 1 hour window of electrician arriving.Electrician arrived, immediately put on booties to enter the house and quickly examined and diagnozed the problem. Made his recommendations for repair and replacements and worked quickly and cleanly to complete the repair. In fact he went one step further and reconnected a hose that had come out of the back of my dryer while he was working on the outlets. Evey exit and entrance into the house, the electrician removed and then replace his booties so not once did he track any outside dirt into the house. Very courteous, and explained thoroughly what all was needed and why he was making certain recommendations.Everything was neat and tidy and the job was well done.
Description of Work: Replaced electrical outlet and bathroom fixture lighting. Recommended and replaced one canned light and explained about the value of chanign them all out to a new lighting system. Courteous, knowledgable and pleasant to work with

They were fine, punctual and efficient. The technician did not have the replacement motor on his truck so he left to go get one then came back and finished the job.

Thanks for posting your review. I am sorry we only rated a 'B' for you. That does not make me or any of us here at Accurate happy. From your review it sounds like the rating was due in part because we didn't have the needed part. I'm sorry for that. Our trucks are the largest service trucks in the industry and we carry 1000's of parts, but we just can't carry everything. I hope you will still consider using us in the future. Best Regards, Jeff

We lost power to a section of the kitchen area, just when we were expecting friends from abroad that would be staying at our home. After reviewing Angie's List suggested electrical services providers, we decided on ACCURATE Electrical in Irvine, California. This ended up being an excellent decision from start to finish. The scheduling was a breeze and a very pleasent experience. Mike turned up on time and very clean with a very positive attitude. The first thing Mike did was to give me a printed list of his pledge for his services that day, which included the phrase "I will only collect the fee if the customer is delighted with the work". At the time, I accepted the pledge but had my reservations, as I am an engineer and difficult to easily please, much less be delighted with any work.Well, Mike lived up to his pledge and I was "delighted" with the work and reasonable fee. Mike was extremely efficient, neat and took the time to explain everything in detail until he felt I was totally satisfied and "delighted"with the results.ACCURATE Electrical services will my "go to" company for all future electrical issues. I'm in!Robin McCrea-Steele

I contacted Accurate by email through Angie's list and got a nice email back within 24 hours asking best time to contact me and indicating who would contact me. Exactly as promised, Eric called and asked about work needed, explained their policies by phone and referred me to office number to schedule appointment. I then called office to schedule appointment (my first choice date was available). Eric showed up exactly on time - neat, clean, polite, and ready to work. Eric reviewed work on-site and worked up an estimate. We discussed the estimate at length as it was more than I had budgeted for, but after discussing and adjusting based on most critical work I needed, we found a happy middleground where I got work I needed at price within my means. [note, I had delayed some troubleshooting that "might" be solved by replacement of a known problem - the replacement did indeed solve the secondary problem, so delaying the troubleshooting was a good compromise!] Eric worked quietly, quickly and took the time to explain some other issues he wanted me to be aware of (which I was). Always very polite and hard-working (no apparent breaks, lounging or otherwise goofing offf). Work was completed in a timely manner (on first trip) - and wrap up and payment was a breeze. Office called twice (including same night) to follow up and make sure I was happy with work, employee and experience. Got exactly what I needed and delivered in a polite, professional and easy way!
