Thank you Target Electric for your assistance! (Sean/Shawn) was able to help us over the phone with a simple resolution which we thought was a huge issue. Excellent service! Saving contact info for all future electrical issues and recommending to all family and friends.

Sean and his team did an excellent job fixing my electrical issue. I had Target Electric address an electrical problem at my Airbnb while guests stayed there. They were in and out promptly, leaving me and my Airbnb guests very happy. I will absolutely use Target Electric again for future projects.

Target Electric are some of the most friendliest and amazing professionals! I spoke with Sean first and we scheduled a time that worked perfect for both us! Even said he would come the same day, push some things around to get it done. Which was amazing that he is willing to go out of his way to help! But I assured him that there was no rush and the next day is perfect! He sent out his guy Steve which called prior to let me know he was on his way! And at the get go really hit it off with him! Very fun, knowledgeable and courteous! Target Electric will be my future electrical team for future projects! And when Sean sees this review, I personally have to say thank you, to YOU and STEVE!!!

Excellent. When Steve got here to fix our problem he realized that it was more complicated than originally thought, and was going to cost $2000 more than quoted. He problem-solved and came up with a solution that would cost about what was quoted at first.

They were not only the first to respond out of several vendor contacts on Angi, but jumped on the job right away and were very accommodating and efficient. This is the only electrician you need to contact for home electrical issues. There is a good reason they have the most reviews
Description of Work: Removed and replaced outlets that were faulty and causing shorts. Installed 20 amp GFCI outlet. Discovered that one of the old outlets on circuit was previously installed incorrectly with metal box. Removed metal box and installed new NM plastic box and GFCI 20 amp. Tested all power. Replaced flickering light with new customer provided light at existing location

Target Electric Enterprises Inc replaced and upgraded my 50 year old main electric panel and I’m so glad I selected them for the job! Sean was responsive from day 1 and kept me fully informed throughout the process. My job required installing a new underground cable also, which involved several interactions with SDGE and City of San Diego, and Sean and Steve very capably handled every step with skill and efficiency. In the field, Steve has extensive expertise and obviously takes great pride in getting the job done right. Their pricing was also very reasonable, and I totally recommend them for any electric job, small or large!

From start to finish -- professionalism, skill and efficiency were exceptional. The hidden break in the circuit was found by thoughtful, systematic and methodical search and corrected immediately. Regarding customer service -- Steve on site and Sean on the initial call were a pleasure to interact with.

There was a mistake on our communication and decided to go with another contractor. Shawn (owner) called to fix the communication breakdown, but it was unfortunately too late. I orginally posted a negative post, but I was very satisfied with Shawn's response and in the future I will consider Target Electric again if my electric needs arise. Thank you again Shawn for the follow up.

I penciled two circles of the appropriate diameter on my ceiling where I needed electrical boxes installed and drilled pilot holes in the center of each, and explained to the electricians that the boxes needed to be placed exactly there. When I checked their progress early on, I found that they had installed both boxes in the wrong spots, with no reason why and without telling me. They corrected their mistake, but I am unhappy that I paid for their service by the hour while they made the mistake, then again to correct it.

Hello and thank you for your feedback and the opportunity to work with you on your project. We did in fact move the original pen marks to install your lighting however, we made very small adjustment to best apply the lights not aware that specific location was the definitive location. Once we knew that location was not good we changed it back right away and it was a very fast fix to get it back to the original pen mark. We understand your time is important so I called you after issuing a credit or discount for one full hour of labor. We uncovered balls of tapped electrical wiring splices in the wall system behind the drywall that was done prior to our arrival and took extra time none of us expected but was nessassarry for your family's safety. We would hope that finding those safety issues and fixing them helped you and your family safety for future. I spoke with you after the job and thank you again for taking my call and allowing us to return in the future for your other electrical projects. We will see you soon Sir.

I'm very happy with all of my home's new ceiling fixtures. Sean helped me select just the right fixtures to modernize the look of my home. Steve was very knowledgeable about the proper placement of the lighting to get the best results. Ceiling patching was necessary since some existing fixtures were relocated, and Steve was able to do that so I can't tell where the holes were. Now I have beautiful light all around that I can adjust the way I want through dimmers. Sean provided excellent communication, and Steve provided excellent work. I highly recommend Target Electric.

The repairs went well. Steve as on time and did the work quickly and efficiently. I didn't check all of the outcomes thoroughly so we missed some things that should have been checked to make sure everything works correctly so I may have to have him back which means an additional charge that I could have avoided if I had been more thorough.

Steve came out and was an absolute professional. He was very informative and explained the process behind the issue without being smug or condescending. Work was done right and efficiently. Quoted amount was as stated and additional charges were expressed before the work was completed. Would absolutely hire again and would suggest for anyone else looking for a quality electrician.

We were very happy with the service! Sean called me and left me a message by end of day yesterday in response to my request for a quote via Angies List. I called him back this morning, and we got Steve scheduled to come out this afternoon. Steve called ahead to give us an up-to-date eta, and showed up when he said he would. He was friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable, he diagnosed and fixed the issue promptly, and he honored the Angies List discount that I mentioned. Steve also cleaned up the work area when he was finished. Price was as quoted and reasonable. We would definitely use this company again!

We are pleased with the electrical work completed by staff of the Target Electric Company. An estimate was provided based on my description of the services/products needed. Later an install date was scheduled in a timely manner. The electrician, Steve, called ahead to apprise us of his projected arrival. He was prompt, courteous and professional. The work was completed as requested and we would call this company again for future work AND we would refer them to anyone needing electrical work. Thanks so much, Marc and Steve!!!
