Roque was tremendous. We had an old ceiling fan located about 12' above the floor in a pitched ceiling. It had been installed in a regular plastic light box. He recommended and installed a new brace in the ceiling between the joists with a metal box. He then installed the new fan. Laid down a floor covering to keep the mess contained. He also replaced a light bulb in the very top of the ceiling over our stairs. It had been out for years as I just couldn't reach it and feel safe over the stairs. Very courteous and proficient. Watch for his coupons and pay him to do extra work while at your house. He is a gem. Thank you Roque!

Wow! This is an excellent company and I plan to get Roque to do all of my electrical work. He is punctual, professional, honest, and conscientious. He was able to get needed drywall worker on site within hours and got the job done right! I have already scheduled several additional jobs. This is a true family operated business and they will treat you right!

We used Angies List for the first time! Read all of MJ's reviews and chose him to do our job. We needed to add a 220 outlet upstairs for our washer. We called MJ - Mario, Saturday morning 8am - he was at our house at 10 am to give us an idea of what needed to be done! He stayed and worked on the outlet till 1pm! We didn't expect the job to be started that day. He said he would be back on Monday at 12pm after he finished an am job. He was at our house by 12:15! The job was completed that day! Job was clean and looked incredibly professional! We were very happy with Mario and would use and recommend him again!! Rob & Cyn - Chula Vista

MJ Electric arrived promptly. Roque explained in great detail precisely how he and his assistant Marco were going to inspect the electrical box (since many are now plastic instead of metal) to determine if it could bare the weight of the fan and then I could decide if I wanted to proceed. It was plastic-but I still needed the fan installed, so I purchased a new electrical box. They took great care to cover and protect my furniture and Marco did an excellent job of cleaning up and helping me put my bed covers and pillows back on the bed! They were prompt, professional, careful, and very nice guys-there is no doubt that I would recommend them to anyone requiring electrical work.

Was on time, came in and asked what I needed wasted no time. Was honest said I had more things then he could do in the time but would do what he could and we could go from there. After his two hours I had him stay to finish the jobs. He changed 20 plus outlets, redid the wire for an outlet changing it from a 240 to a 120. Very reasonable pricing. Very focused. Did not even stop to answer his phone while working. Cleaned up any mess when he was done. I definitely would use him again in the future. I highly recommend him.

He did a great job and he knew what he was doing. He was helpful. He did some other work for me because my original project didn't take 2 hours, which he was very happy to do. His price was great and he was very honest. He's a keeper! Any electrical work I need done in the future, he's the only person I'll call.

We went with MJ Electric because of the Big Deal for $99. Booking the appointment went well. We were able to schedule pretty soon after we reached out. The day of the appointment the technician was about 15-20 minutes late without a phone call. So I called and was told they were further than they anticipated and that they were leaving downtown and there was a lot of traffic. This rubbed me the wrong way and I was a little skeptical at that point. Mario arrived about 45 minutes to an hour late. But when he arrived he was very polite, professional and knowledgeable. We let him know what we wanted to get done and he got straight to work. He was done with the first project very quickly and took the time to explain the settings on the motion sensing light he installed. He then got to work on our dinning room pendant light. He was very careful to ensure that it was straight and even all around. He also was very careful with our hardwood floors. We let him know about another bigger project we were thinking about getting done. He was very knowledgeable and let us know some great tips and things to think about. He also pointed some dangerous areas that we should consider getting fixed. We had a friend who was in the neighborhood and stopped by who was also impressed with Mario's work and asked for his card. Overall a great experience and we will definitely reach out again for part two of our lighting project.
Description of Work: Installed chandelier, porch light, and hall ceiling light. Also provided an estimate for some external lighting projects we'd like to do in the backyard and garage.

Purchased a Big Deal for a ceiling fan installation. Roque arrived on time and was very courteous. He explained what he was doing the whole time and cleaned up after he was done. He advised us of the additional cost to install the support brace, which is what we expected since we were replacing a light fixture.

Everything went well and Roque answered all of my questions and informed me of my options for expanding my service panel. Roque called to let me know he was on his way and to see if he could arrive on the job early which was not a problem.

The provider came in once to insepct the job and understand the details, and did not charge me for that visit. On the second visit he was preapred with all the tools and equipment that he needed. He had quoted me about 3 to 4 hours of work and completed the job in about 3.5 hours. The job was completed to my satisfaction, was very clean and professional. I will use this vendor again in the future and highly recommend his work and professionalism.
Description of Work: The provider added a 240 Volt breaker to our residence electric box, and pulled wires to install a Level 2 Electric Vehicle charger. All the cabling were done according to code and pulled inside the walls, which I thought was better done than having cables through pipes exteranally exposed.

He was on time, courteous, and professional. He finished the job before the allotted two hour estimate. When the contracted service was completed sooner than expected, he offered to do other electrical work to make up for the extra time available. I thought this was a very honest offer to provide me with the two hours of service contracted for.

He was fantastic! RIGHT on time, put on booties before he even stepped in my house and went over pricing and details before he did a thing. I then showed him what I wanted done, which he set right to work doing. The bathroom fixture was a bit of a project because things weren't lining up, but he managed to figure out a way to attach it safely and cover up the eyesore that was there before. When he got to work on the second fixture at the top of the stairs he discovered that lowes hadn't given me all the parts for this fixture (since it was a display, it didn't end up coming with everything I needed). At this point, he only had about 30 minutes left in the 2 hour "deal" and he gave me an option to move the downstairs fixture (which I had decided I wanted moved to the top of the stairs with the new fixture to eventually take its place. I offered to pay him by the hour so he could go get the part needed, come back and finish it that day, but he said it would be cheaper to just quote me a separate price for that fixture- which ended up being about the same as one hour of "by the hour pricing". He is coming back tomorrow to finish it all up, and I am beyond happy with how respectful and efficient he is. I will absolutely use him again. UPDATE: He came by today (as promised) and put up the last fixture in no time! He had brought a couple options from the hardware store to fix the missing piece dilemma, and had exactly what he needed. He also did me a favor and ripped out a couple of old alarm pieces near the fixture that were complete eyesores and serving no purpose. He cleaned up after himself and was on his way. Thanks again!
Description of Work: I purchased an angie's list deal for 2 hours of electrical work, wanting him to install 2 fixtures (one in my bathroom and one at the top of the stairs), and eventually decided to move an existing fixture as well.

I had a very good experience with MJ electric. Mario arrived right on time and got to work right away. He made a trip to pick up some replacement parts for my track lighting system, but returned quickly and had them installed shortly thereafter. Everything regarding what my $99 deal included (and what it didn't) was explained clearly and before work began. He was polite, courteous and very professional. I will use them again.

He went the "extra mile" to make it out to our place. You see we are a mile and a half on an old ranch road. He spent some time assessing what was needed and made a list of things needed to do all of the work. He was able to get all we wanted and a little more complete. Professional, knowledgeable electrician with good quality work.

The service was fine. They were fine, but it was ordinary, nothing stood out. I paid them an additional amount for extra services and it was expensive for what they did. If you use them just for the big deal, it is economical, but if you use them for anything extra, it is very expensive.

Mario was very professional. He did an excellent job. He honored the coupon that was attached to his listing on Angie's List, which saved us on this install. He was careful to lay drop clothes where needed to protect our hardwood floors. He took care in cleaning up after he completed his work. Mario was very personable, and it was obvious that he takes pride in his work. We are happy to say that we now have an electrician we are confident in, that we can rely on, and to do the job with care.

When the service provider first called he said permits were not included and insisted he would get for us for an extra $350 and he would "not be making any money off of this", we found out that permits were only $50 to obtain through the city. When he arrived he offered his services in areas other than just the electrical, such as general house maintenance. The service provider also informed us of many things that were not included such as stucco replacement which would be an extra $200 from someone he knows and all were prompted with "as you read in angie's list fine print". He insinuated that the job would not be fully completed unless we add additional services which led us to believe that we were not actually getting the "Big Deal" we thought we were signing up for.

Thanks for taking the time to review my company all reviews are important to me but I believe there are some misunderstandings. I offer a flat rate for permits because it typically takes 3 hours to obtain the permit. I always charge a flat rate for my time,driving, and the permit charge. I also recommended the stucco work only because to replace a panel often includes patching of stucco. I'm not a stucco repair contractor I am a electrician and wouldn't be able to repair your homes stucco and about the Big Deal fine print I was just being transparent of what additional charges may apply, such as permits and stucco repair. I don't force anyone to use the stucco contractor I know.

He showed up on time and was very professional. He always made sure to inform me of exactly he was going to do for that day and made sure to clean up before he left everyday. He was very kind and I was very satisfied with the end result. I would continue to use him in the future and would highly recommend using this company.
Description of Work: They came out and ran the wiring for my cable tv and internet. He also installed an outside motion detector as well as ran wiring for two outlets in the vanity area. He also replaced and installed 5 new led cam lights and made sure they were fire safe and up to code. Finally he fixed one of my ceiling fans that needed to be rewired.
