We are so grateful for South Bay Electric for being so responsive and helpful, addressing our issue immediately and professionally, and charging us a very reasonable price. Thank you!!
Description of Work: We had a sudden outlet failure this past summer where the outlet produced a small amount of visible smoke. We called South Bay Electric because we had hired Ian to do work for us on previous occasions. He responded immediately and sent someone out right away to evaluate the cause and change the outlet.

We live out of state and it is important to have an electrician for our rental home who is good, reliable and honest. Mike located breaker that was overstressed and upgraded to avoid future problems and leave us with a safer system. He came out twice so he could install the bigger breaker and only charged us for one visit.
Description of Work: Fixed loss of power that occurred in some of the rooms in our house. Problem caused by use of a space heater. The existing circuit breaker was undersized. Mike upgraded our system.

It went great I will definitely be calling him again.
Description of Work: I was really pleased with the work and over all response. He was reasonable as opposed to all the other estimates that I had gotten. He also explained to me in detail what the propblem was and saved me over $2,000 dollars

One of the circuit breakers in my home failed open. I called South Bay Electric. They couldn't respond on the day of my call, but because the circuit was for an area of the house that was not used very often, it did not present a problem. When they came over, I discussed options for the repair, from replacing the entire circuit breaker box (since I could use more circuits and the breakers were in only fair condition) to replacing just the bad breakers. I decided on the latter, but I might buy replacement breakers for all the others, and have them come over and do the replacement in the future. Mike did a good job, was very helpful and knowledgable in discussing options.
Description of Work: Replace a couple of electrical circuit breakers.

Mike was very nice and professional. He came the very next day that I called. He was able to fix many things, was quick and was really reasonable. I should have called him earlier. Being a single woman, I procrastinated calling someone to fix all of my electrical problems. I would defnitely recommend him to my friends.
Description of Work: Replaced faulty ballast in bathroom; removed and replaced a total of 3 faulty light switches, removed and replaced 1 duplex receptacle, and replaced a couple of cover plates.

They were wonderful, did a really good job, and punctual. Cleaned up after themselves, the work was high quality. Very responsive, came here on time. i If they had to change a day they would call me a week ahead of time to let me know way ahead of time. Very professional and on time. They are the only electricians that we will use.
Description of Work: South Bay Electric Wiring run in spare room and installed a ceiling fan.

It was a positive experience working with them. I called them and they were able to go to my tenant's house; I'm a property manager. The outlets were not working properly. They fixed the problem of the outlets. They came and fixed the problem. They were also able to identify a few other problems that I was having, that needed to be worked on. They were punctual. That was a positive experience with them. However, I wanted to get an estimate on the additional work they said would need to be done. I really had a hard time scheduling somebody to come and give me an estimate for that work. At a certain time, after calling them for few times I gave up. I moved with another electrician who is working for me next week. I would rather not use them in the future, unless I needed to.
Description of Work: I used South Bay Electric about three weeks ago. I had some problem with the outlets that were not working properly.

He was standing her when one of my tenants called and was having a problem. I asked him to go and the next job he had was in Santa Monica so he just worked it right in. He was meeting a client so he had 2 and a half hours to kill so he went from where I live to the apartment building and to Santa Monica.
Description of Work: He worked the same day in my home and in my apartment building.
