    New ceiling fan installed

    I hired Ed to install a new fan and recessed lighting. Ed is an excellent electrician--professional, tidy, and respectful of my home. He and his partner, Cesar, did an outstanding job. I'm thrilled to have found a reliable electrician for any future needs and will definitely call him again. I rated Ed and his team five stars and will highly recommend them to all my friends. I'm very satisfied with their service.

    Eddie replaced my breakers and resolved the issues quickly. Other electricians sold my wife an AC disconnect but the breakers were burning. Eddie fixed it under 30 mins and charged much less than anyone.

    NEMA 14-50R
    Gerald W.

    Prodded by a recent article in my Family Motor Coaching Magazine (FMC Aug 2018) about adding a residential RV electrical box, I decided to add 50 amp RV service. None of the electrical contractors mentioned this service in their resumes and my magazine had devoted much of the article to ensuring the importance that the electrician knows what he's doing and the consequences of extensive damage to your rig and appliances if done wrong. The article listed the NEMA codes for both 30 amp and 50 amp service and warned that industrial / welding connections are the same amperage but are wired completely different. They said it was very important that the electrician knew what he was doing. After reviewing Yelp I decided to contact 1-Step Up Electrical due to their high ratings and being local to my area. I contacted the owner Ed and he came out later that day to review and give a quote. Ed mentioned that he was very familiar with RV wiring and it would not be a problem. Having the warnings from the article in my mind I thought it prudent to confirm the NEMA code anyway just to make sure. The NEMA code for 50 Amp RV service is 14-50R. Another electrician came out on the scheduled day and in less than an hour had our connection completed. I had to tell him which way the plug is positioned (round pin up) (RED FLAG WARNING) and I asked him to check the amperage to ensure there were 120 watts per side and 240 for both. I did not have the coach at the house to check that the plug matched but everything else checked out so I paid him and sent him on his way. The magazine article had also addressed the problem of faulty electrical boxes encountered in campgrounds by recommending testing the connection for proper wiring before plugging in to avoid damage to the RV and appliances. I bought an in-line 50 amp Connection Tester / Surge Protector on Amazon which arrived a couple of days after the RV connection was added. Guest what - the plug and the connection were completely different (see pictures). I-Step Up had installed a 50 amp industrial connection not the RV connection requested. I called Ed received an apology and the tech came out promptly and put the proper connection in. All good now and thank you for rectifying the problem quickly. The point of this review is just to warn the consumer to not take things for granted and for the contractors to make sure they know what they are doing when working with various connection configurations.

    Patio fans

    We called to have an estimate on installing electricity to a covered patio for three outdoor fans and an electrical socket installed. In addition, we wanted to replace two light/fans and a ceiling canned light in our master bath. Ed Verdugo returned the call within one hour and came out within two days to provide an estimate. He was honest and fair with his bid. The next week he and his crew installed everything we asked for plus repaired an additional lighting outlet box. They were professional, polite, and cleaned up after they were finished. We will definitely contact Ed for future work that we need. Thank you Ed!

From start to finish, this was an outstanding experience. The team is a hardworking family business that takes pride in their craft. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and paid close attention to detail on every install. They were friendly, respectful of our home, and left everything clean and tidy once the job was done. The pricing was incredibly fair for the quality of work we received -- honestly, it's rare to find such skilled professionals who are also so easy to work with. We'll absolutely be calling them again for future projects and highly recommend them to anyone needing electrical work in the Big Bear area. Five stars all the way!

Spoke with Dave and after comparing them with other companies I found them to be most reasonable. I scheduled the install with David. He was prompt and very knowledgeable when answering my questions. A year after installing my home charger I noticed that I wasn't getting my normal output from my charger. I saw an alert on my car stating that the outlet was overheating. I reached out to David and he was able to come out the day after I called to fix the issue. Big thanks to David for his quick response and being able to fix my issue.
