The price was a very good offer and he came over the next day and he had to check down a possible problem with the electrical hook up and a lamp over a head light. He took the time and traced everything back to where it belonged. Then he kind of went out of his way to go down to a store to try to find the part to fix over a head light and there were not just available anymore. But he went out of his way and did the work, went out of his way to complete but even go further and then he found a couple of other jobs that he did around the house. It was very excellent. He was honest with everything he told me. He had extra time so he did extra work and I paid him extra for the extra work which was only $100. He didn't charge me for travel time or anything else, he could have, he had to go an check at the store.

We had a wedding reception and he rearranged the schedule so that he could be here. He came out and he really did a good job. He helped us with the primer and got all the lights up and running beautifully. We got compliments on our lighting in our yard during the reception. He wasn’t too expensive and he was very punctual.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal coupon from MJ Electric came out to do a whole check on all the lighting in our front and back yards. The fixed the lights that were out. Some of them were burned out but some had electrical issues that needed to be taken care of. He replaced some of the lights that needed replacing. He added some lights as well.

Used the two hour deal to get light switch fixed. I had a four way light switch that controlled five ceiling lights in a hallway. The switch stopped working and the lights did not turn on. Electrician spent the first two hours taking of switch plates from wall switches and going up in the attic to check the lights. He used up the two hours and then informed me that it would probably take another three hours to fix the problem at $100/hr. I told him I couldn't afford that and he suggested I pay another hour and chances are he could fix the problem. I agreed to another hour but at the end he said it would be more time. I would not pay any more when he couldn't even tell me how much longer it would take. He offered to fix it for sure for another $300 but at that point I lost confidence and I paid him the $100 for the extra hour. He left and a few hours later I found that the lights in our bathroom, adjacent to the hallway with the problem, did not work. He came back and pointed out that a breaker on the main box had switched off but now it was fixed. Another hour later, I found the bathroom lights off again and when I tried to reset the circuit breaker, it would not stay on. I called the electrician back and he came again. He disconnected some wires from one of the non functioning wall switches (the switches from the original problem) and this kept the circuit breaker from tripping. At this point he had spent three hours trying to fix the original problem and I had spent the rest of the afternoon troubleshooting/calling him back/and waiting, for him to fix the bathroom lights that never had a problem. UPDATE. It has taken me a few months to revisit this problem with my light switch because MJ Electric was estimating this was about a $500 job. I had an electrician come over today referred by Lowes. He found a faulty wall outlet on the same circuit as the wall switch and fixed the problem in less than 45 minutes. When I told him about my prior experience with MJ Electric he was hesitant to say that I was "taken for a ride" but he did say the switches and outlets on the same circuit should have all been checked before going into the attic. Anyway, he charged me $10 for the switched, thanked me for my military service and did not write me an invoice. Problem solved.
Description of Work: Called him to fix wall switch for ceiling lights. In three hours he did not fix switch. When he left, our previously fine bathroom lights did not work. I had to call him back twice just to get back where I was before he came! Hallway lights still do not work after $179 and three hours

Hi my name is Roque from MJElectric, I velive there is a huge miss understanding with this project. When I came to complete the 2 hours of work that you bought on Angie's list, and you told me the problem you were having, I was very clear letting you know that do to the intense of your problem, is very posible that it might took more then 2 hours, and asked if you ll still wanted to move forward you agreed. Since I wasn't able to find the problem yet , I went ahead and asked again if wanted to continue forward, again you agreed . I did told you that it might was going to take another hour, so at the end of the extra hour, I was able to find the problem, wich is a demage wire that needed to be replaced , and I notified you right a way, that to install a new line it was going to take around 4 1/2 hours, but I gave you a set price of $265 .00 because I was awere that you had allready spent $179 . 00 so I gave you a dicount of $200.00 because I really wanted to fix your problem, so you'll be satisfy. Then you said that at the time you didn't have the money to do it, but that you were going to call me in march to complete it. You are welcome to get a second estime or at the list a second opinion on this project, and if you'll still like to hire me to complete it, I'll be very happy to do it for the price that I already gave you. Or if you want to discuss this a little farther please call me at 619-980-5620

This was the day that it rained so hard and the wind was really whipping at the top of our hill. In fact the weather was soooo bad that I called Mario and told him he didn't have to come in such dangerous driving conditions. He assured us that he would be fine and that he was on his way. This was the second job we've used Mario for. The first was a complete rewiring of our older home. Even though this was a minor job, he treated us like we were the most important people to him. He quickly put up our new bathroom fixture and replaced the hard to reach bulb on the front porch. After making sure we'd be okay in the storm he was out the door. I wouldn't dream of using anyone else for our electrical work. He is honest, fair, skilled & punctual. What more could a person want???

Very thoughtful by wearing booties over his shoes.
Description of Work: Replaced a recessed light that had literally fallen out of the ceiling. Looked at a floor lamp and was not able to repair it properly, due to a problem with the inner mechanism. Gave me an estimate on the cost to separate can lights and a fan which are on the same electrical switch. I want to turn on the fan without all the lights also coming on.

Provider worked quietly and efficiently. He was polite and considerate, careful about not scuffing my floors, careful not to disturb a bird's next close to those outside wires he removed and also careful about cleaning up all work areas.
Description of Work: Mario of MJ Electric replaced two faulty outlets, cut some in-wall speaker wires that served no purpose and straightened 2 electrical boxes. My home, which dates to the 50's, had some exterior wires that I wanted checked and removed, if possible. Mario traced them carefully and was able to cut and dispose of all but one. Big improvement.

Showed up on time, on a Saturday, fantastic! I had purchased a Angie's List coupon, to get this done. Very reasonable, even without, and they tackle small jobs that no one wants to do. Work was done under the allotted time, and went well. I recommend them for your electrical needs.

Mario called immediately to arrange the appointment. At my request the appointment was confirmed a day ahead. He arrived precisely on time, was courteous and cheerful as he worked, and left the areas clean.
Description of Work: Mario installed four exterior motion detecting lights, one interior dimmer switch, and replaced one patio outlet that was not up to code with a proper GFI outlet. I provided the exterior light fixtures, he provided the switch and outlet.

Mario, (of MJ Electric) called ahead of the appointment to check to see if he could come a little early, which I thought was very professional. he in fact did arrive 20 minutes early (as we had agreed) and put on booties to protect my freshly cleaned carpet and laid down a protective rug as well! He correctly identified the best place to install the fan for stability and found the power source to wire it up. The fan had a remote so he included that part of the installation as well. He also wired up a switch and outlet on my patio. he cleaned up everything and was on his way after 2 hours, exactly as he had estimated. All very professional and I will use him again soon to re-install a CO detector that he discovered was not wired correctly. Unbeknownst to me I had been living in a place with CO detection! Thanks Mario for spotting that. MJ gets my highest recommendation

I received a phone call from the provider saying he could not make it until Monday February 3rd although I requested either Jan. 29, 30 or 31. I agreed that the 3rd would be okay although the problem with the electricity would go unchecked for 6 days. He told me that he could not get here until 4PM although he would try to make it by 3PM. As it turned out he did not arrive at either time and as a matter of fact he did not show up or even give me the courtesy of a phone call. As a result of this I called a different electrical firm and they sent an electrician within two hours and he fixed the problem.

The job went smoothly, for the most part. Mario arrived on time and accomplished the installation efficiently. I had purchased two hours of labor as part of an Angie's List deal, which would have been adequate for the installation if Mario hadn't had to upgrade the electrical box in the ceiling. Because he didn't have the proper box in his truck, he had to leave to purchase one. The additional hourly charges for this task nearly doubled the cost of the installation, but was unavoidable.

Mario came and did an extensive inspection before presenting a feasible solution and fair bid for our project. He was flexible with our schedule and even called the day before to confirm his appointment. On the first day of work he arrived on time and worked neatly. We assumed he would leave a mess because the project was more than one day but he left the area tidy and put together meticulously so that we could enjoy our evening. Mario took the time to befriend our grouchy, older dog who gets upset with strangers in the house. By the end of the day they were good friends. We highly recommend Mario's Company, MJ Electric.
Description of Work: Corrected outdated wiring in an older home in North Pacific Beach. Our situation was complicated, requiring expertise and creativity. Mario brought our home up to code, meeting all safety standards and passing inspection by City with flying colors.

This was a job done at my mother's 60 year old house. Mario was very punctual. He brought all needed equipment, went over all he would be doing, went right to the job, completed it, cleaned up and was done within a couple hours. I thought it would be an all day job. I am very pleased with his work.
