Michael helped us resolve a complicated electrical inspection issue that could have easily turned into a full (and unnecessary) rewire. He took the time to thoroughly troubleshoot the kitchen and bathroom outlets, corrected GFCI protection where required, and replaced a damaged garbage disposal box. What really set him apart was his experience dealing with inspectors. He went into the attic and crawlspace, traced existing wiring, identified the correct junction points, and clearly explained how everything was tied into existing branch circuits. He also communicated directly with the city inspector and knew exactly how to document the work properly to satisfy code requirements without overdoing it. Michael was professional, patient, and very clear in explaining what was actually required versus what wasn't. Thanks to him, we avoided unnecessary work and costs and felt confident going into re-inspection. If you want an electrician who actually understands code, inspections, and how to solve problems the right way, Michael is your guy. read more

These guys helped install a couple of LED mirrors for my bathroom. We live in a condo high rise with an HOA, so they were able navigate the complexities involved with that, and were able to improvise on the fly whenever they would face a hurdle. Very reasonably priced and great to work with! Would definitely use them again in the future. read more

Working with Michael Ayala was a superb experience. He efficiently and swiftly brought light to my dim home! I can't say enough about the light difference in my home, I can enjoy reading in my living room without a book light! Michael replied to my request for a quote quickly, he responded to all my questions about the products and installation with clarity, covered all furniture and cleaned up completely, and the quote itself was 100% affordable! I highly recommend Ayala Electric and will use the company again for my future electrical needs! read more

Ayala Electric, Michael and Eduardo were the subcontractors on my ADU Build and man, they hit it out of the park! Michael's attention to detail was second to none! He thought of everything with respect to placement of electrical outlets inside and outside, as well as adding conduit and outlets for wall mounted televisions. As with any build, there were some minor corrections but Michael was attentive and everything was operating smoothly thereafter. I previously had an electrician to service my home, but Michael and Ayala Electric will be my go to electricians moving forward. Highly recommended! read more

Michael was fantastic, friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. He fixed my garage electrical issue, gave great safety tips, and even offered to help with Southern California Edison. Highly recommend! read more

Michael installed our garage Ring camera a while back and just finished installing a new light fixture. He's consistently reliable, detail-oriented, and a highly skilled professional. On top of that, his pricing is fair and the value he delivers is outstanding.

After dealing with unresolved electrical problems in my building for a long time, working with Michael from Ayala Electric was a huge relief. He was thorough, honest, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He identified the root of the issues, explained the solutions clearly, and took care of everything efficiently. The work was done right, the pricing was very reasonable, and the results speak for themselves. I wouldn't hesitate to use Ayala Electric again. read more

I sent a request to Ayala Electric on a Sunday afternoon and Micheal responded right away. We scheduled a visit for the next day for a few outlets that weren't working.

We are happy to have a contact for our future needs. read more

This review is really long overdue. Michael Ayala has done amazing work for various members of my family over the last year. The work has been varied in scope, from complex problem solving, to helping with a whole-home remodel, to the more straightforward - but every time, Michael has personally delivered a consistent and exceptional experience. Michael's work is characterized by meticulous workmanship, top notch professionalism and integrity, and a demonstration of mastery and expertise in his trade. And, he is just a really nice and hard working person. I know electricians must often employ guesswork, as they don't have X-ray vision to see behind walls and ceilings. They often have to commit to proposals based on existing wiring that they can't actually see, which puts their cost of labor and materials at stake. Their line of work must be very challenging when it comes to meeting their clients' expectations of a fixed price and timeline. The first time we hired Michael, he impressed us as the ONLY one, out of four electricians we talked to, who demonstrated a willingness and curiosity to problem solve, and the ingenuity to successfully find and execute the solution. Michael immediately understood that what might be easiest for him (tearing down floor-to-ceiling strips of drywall on 2 floors, as the other three electricians had proposed), was NOT the easiest or best solution for us. Now that the job is done, we can't even tell where he went through the drywall, if at all. Michael's true mastery of his trade is demonstrated here, where empathy for his clients is a non-negotiable part of his decision making. Finding solutions that are practical, safe, and non-disruptive as possible, is JUST as important to him as connecting the wires, so to speak. In my experience, this is a quality found more often in health care providers than in contractors. Michael is the real deal. He has a few dozen (all great) reviews - rather than a few hundred - because if you read carefully - every review mentions him by name. He is the owner of his business, the one picking up the phone, showing up to every call, and the one standing by his own work. He shows up on time, is respectful of your space, is communicative, responsive over text if that's your thing, and extremely patient. He double checks himself on the code where indicated, and even went over it with us when we had questions. So not only is his work safe, it also looks great. Great attention to detail, everything always looks level and sharp. He has proven himself repeatedly trustworthy with respect to how he approaches his proposals and how he bills for his work. His pricing is incredibly fair. For bigger jobs, the help he brought (David in our case) was top notch as well. Can't say enough about Mr. Ayala. Establishing new relationships with tradespersons can be really stressful and confusing. We are grateful and relieved for the security of knowing all our electrical needs moving forward can be solved with a call to Ayala Electric. Thank you Michael!! read more

Looking forward to hiring him again in the future. Note: very "millenial-friendly" if that's a thing as I prefer to communicate via texts and process payments through online platforms. read more

I called Michael after reading so many stellar reviews. He answered the phone, listened attentively and offered to come out within a very short time span as he was not far away from my home.

I hired Michael to do some work in my condo - adding some outlets and dimmer switches, fixing the exhaust fan that was never hooked up right and had never worked, and the doorbell. He was on time, friendly, did the work quickly, and his charges were reasonable. Also, the place was a huge mess, but no complaints from him. I trust him completely in my home. He also recommended a great handyman to me. When the handyman discovered a new electrical issue that needed to be fixed before he could continue his work, Michael came over immediately and fixed it so they could continue. I really appreciated that kind of service. I don't expect that it could happen all the time but I sure was glad it happened that time. read more
