Wow. Old school ethics and professionalism combined with fair pricing, great service and installation. I needed a new updated main panel installed as well as 240V 60 amp sub panel in the garage and this crew worked like a well oiled machine and cleaned up at the end of each day. I had waited on Edison for 2 months with no response to approve the main panel installation. Mike called and they were out the next day. Every call was answered immediately, every email responded to the same day, the follow thru was amazing and will have them upgrade anything else without hesitation. This was no small job to wire on an 80 year old house. I feel much safer knowing this was done right, to code and was passed by city inspector the first time. read more

He came and installed a small neon sign at my business. I was referred to him by a longtime friend, so I thought I wouldn't get taken advantage of. The day of the installation he brought 2 workers with him and told them what to do. He thought he had finished the installation and all the wires were hanging out of the sign all over the place. I'm not an electrician, however I know when something is done wrong. I said to Mike, this is not acceptable, so he acted frustrated and had his workers put numerous holes in the back of the wall. (see photo) finally after hours, a simple job, turned out to be a big headache of a job. He then sent me an invoice for $700. The work, nor the scale of the job justified that high of a price. I should of had a confirmed price before I let him, I mean his workers, train of my sign and wall. When I told him I had a problem with the price, he turned into an angry bully. He came to my office several times harassing me and the price kept going up. So I ended up paying over $800 for a shotty job. Which I think is very unethical and unprofessional. I am constantly referring people to people and places. And I will never refer this Big bully to any of my friends or clients. Not only was the work bad, but so was his attitude and professionalism. read more

Needed to install a NEMA 14-50 and called around for a quote. Big Mike gave me the best price, had great availability, and didn't try to upsell me anything. He was also very knowledgeable regarding the installation and what it would be used for. This was very important because a few electricians I spoke to seemed clueless and that made me nervous. His employees were prompt, worked hard, and no hidden charges when invoiced. I would definitely recommend giving him a call. Thanks Big Mike and crew! read more

Big Mike's a great guy. Knowledgeable and pricing is fair. I needed to rewire my entire kitchen, (circa 1954) laundry room and replace a sub panel. Mike came out and inspected the work to be done and gave me recommendations and pointed things out I overlooked on the new appliances I was installing as far as their individual power needs and requirements. His crew came out and worked diligently and accomplished my goals. I'm more than pleased with the end result. I will be contacting him for any future electrical needs. Highly recommended. read more

This is my second time using BME to take care of a list of items for my home. He assigned Pedro and another guy and they're both BEAST at what they do. If you want top notch Electricians who can get the job done right look no further. BME team gets a 10/10 in my book!!!! read more

Used Big Mike about 10 years ago. No Yelp back then unfortunately. My decorator referred him to change out a chandelier. He sent out three unqualified individuals. It took several hours for them to remove the existing chandelier and install the new one. The bill was over $1,000 and he wouldn't budge on the price. Very arrogant. I had similar work done today by another firm and paid $240 - that's what made me decide to Yelp about how he ripped me off. Do not recommend him! read more

I had a small job, needed one outlet added in my garage. The first two electricians didn't answer their phones and I had to leave a message. One called back to say it would be two weeks until he could do my job. The other electrician didn't even bother calling me back. The third call was to BME. Mike answered and said he could have one of his guys over to my house tomorrow morning. His guy showed up early and had the job done in 30 minutes! I know this little job isn't much to judge a company on, but given the customer service and timely scheduling I received, I would call on them again. read more

Mike came by after looking on yelp. He not only worked on what we asked for but he cleared up a circuit confusion we had for 20 years! We had an outlet and a switch that we couldn't figure out what they went to. He hooked it up for us and now we have light in our living room with a switch. Yay! Thanks Mike! read more

Mike did some work on our pool electrical and did a great job. He showed up on time, communicated everything clearly, fixed the problem and charged a fair rate. Everything I could ask for. :) That was in Anaheim. We've since moved to Corona and I called up Mike again. Unfortunately we're too far away now, and I understand that, but he still offered a few tips over the phone. And voila! He solved our problem! He saved us money and the headache of having to hunt down another good electrician. Mike runs his business with integrity and he really knows his stuff. He's definitely your guy if you're looking for a good electrician. read more
