Caldera Power Services delivered outstanding work from start to finish. I needed new recessed lights installed in my kitchen and front porch, along with several smart switches, and Chris and Emmanuel did an exceptional job. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail truly stood out. They were clean, punctual, and clearly take pride in the quality of their work. The labor cost was more than fair, especially given the level of craftsmanship and customer service they provided. If you're looking for reliable, skilled electricians who get the job done right, I highly recommend Caldera Power Services. Thank you Chris! Five stars and A+++ read more

5/5 Chris was reliable, super knowledgeable and professional. He gave us the best quote around. He and his apprentice installed a sub panel for our generator. You can tell the Chris has experience and knows his stuff. read more

We were having some extreme flickering in our house so we contacted Caldera Power Services. Chris was very quick to respond and he mentioned that this was most likely a problem on the utility company's end (SCE). He said that we should check with them first as it would be free to check/repair on their end and if that resolve the issue, he would come down and check what else could be the problem. Sure enough the utility company confirmed that there was a loose connection and fixed everything within a few minutes. Thanks again for helping us Chris! read more

Moved into a new place and the outlet for the dryer wasn't working. Chris came out and was very helpful, took care of the work very quickly.

Power outage in 100° heat. I contacted several electricians who each said it would be up to four days before they could come out. Chris was in the area and said he would be by in about 15 minutes. Fifteen minutes later he was at my home. He looked at the main breaker and the breaker panel. He got the power back on then went about looking for the cause. Turns out it was the A/C unit from the Mesozoic Era. He said because he is not an A/C tech, he was not going to mess with the unit. I am not going to use the A/C until I get that unit repaired or replaced. If I need some electrical work done (and I am sure I will), I will call Chris. Responsive, honest, knowledgeable, polite, personable, professional. Thank you, Chris. read more

Wonderful experience with Chris - he arrived when he said he was going to arrive and charged very reasonably for his expertise. Glad we found a good electrician finally! read more

Chris installed an EV charger at our house. It was a big job, requiring accessing our panel on the other side of the house through the dusty crawlspace. No complaints, Chris got straight to work and did an excellent, quality electrical job and came in lower than his original quote. Highly recommending Caldera Power Services for your next project. read more

Rally appreciated Chris coming out, I waited about a month for his visit as he's in high demand and I understand why. He's incredibly knowledgeable and experienced while sharing his expertise in a professional and kind way. Will definitely be calling him for future electrical needs. read more

Chris Caldera the owner was very professional and honest. He was on time and was very good in what he did. I will definitely call him back. Thank you. Update: Hi Chris. My name is Mira. You fixed my rental apartment in 379 North Mentor Ave, Unit #4, Pasadena. Thanks again. read more

We had another issue recently and Chris answered immediately and took care of our issue quickly. Professional, responsive and a pleasure to deal with. No need to look further. You've found your electrician!! read more

Had to do a rewiring of my 110 year old craftsman home following the Eaton Fire. Chris was the low bid which is sometimes suspect but after talking with him and the other bidders he was the clear choice. We encountered many unusual obstacles in this old house and Chris stuck to his original quote. Just amazing considering the amount of complexity to the problems discovered. We also have plaster walls not drywall and one of the other bidders said he would need to punch over 100 holes! Chris made maybe 20 and his plaster guy did a beautiful job with the repair. All of the other reviews are spot on, this is my electrician of choice moving forward. Thank you Chris! read more

Chris responded promptly, gave a reasonable estimate, and arrived at the house on schedule. He did excellent work, and his final bill came in at less than his estimate. I couldn't be more pleased with the work that Chris did. read more

Chris answered the phone himself and arrived at my house an hour later. we had a complex issue of no power to a room in the house. he was able to finally trace the issue and rewired the room. he was meticulous and thorough. i will be using his services again soon as this house has lots of issues. read more

Chris was awesome! Prompt reply to my query. Accurate estimate. Really took time to assess the situation once on site, gave me a clear outline of what he was going to do, then did it superbly. Great communication. Very tidy work. Left the place better than when he got here! All that and he's a nice guy, too! 100% recommend. read more

Yesterday was Chris' fourth visit to our home since 2018 and he never disappoints. Always so friendly, and his work is always professional. I never have to sweat when it comes to electrical work because our family is in good hands when Chris does the work. Electrical work isn't something we ever take a chance with, so we always reach out to Chris when we have a repair or upgrade. Chris is the best electrician we've had and we look forward to him visiting again for our next project! read more

Hired Chris for a couple of different jobs including running wires for a new electrical outlet. Chris is amazing to work with. Very professional, careful, and thoughtful. He cleaned up the space and was careful with his tools when he was in the house. His pricing was fair and we will definitely be using Chris for all our electrical needs and will be referring him to friends and family. read more

I had Chris come out to install a NEMA 14-50 in my garage for charging an electric car. Chris got back to me immediately and worked around my schedule for the installation. He arrived on time and was extremely courteous. He was very open about pricing and gave me different options about cost depending on the placement of the outlet. Install was done and everything worked perfectly and the last step was getting the city inspector to approve the work. Long story short the city inspector mistakenly claimed that the work Chris did was not up to code. It surprised the both of us. But working with Chris we were able to find the electrical code that proved the work was in fact done correctly and he was able to contact the inspector the next day to get the permit in the end. Overall just an overall great experience with Chris and appreciate his responsiveness to everything. read more

Couldn't be happier with the service I got from Chris. Thorough, professional, good communicator...he was awesome. And, he didn't try to sell me a bunch of services that I didn't need. His honesty troubleshooting the problems in the subpanel (causing issues with airconditioning) saved me over $1000. I would absolutely recommend him and will use him again. It's hard to find folks you can trust - he's won mine! read more

Very responsive and on time. Offers suggestions as to options from least expensive to most expensive. Definitely will use them again.

Caldera Power Service was punctual, provided excellent service, were very friendly and did excellent work. I highly recommend them.

Great, friendly, and fast service. Helped my family out and was responsive and flexible with our schedule and questions! Chris was able to fix our issue incredibly fast! read more

10/10!! Chris returned my call very promptly for an electrical issue I was having and was able to provide me recommendations over the phone that immediately fixed my issue . Very nice, knowledgeable, and professional. Highly recommend. read more

I previously had a 10-50P receptacle in my garage from previous owner. I use an adapter/converter to a 14-50 for my Tesla. Well, after 4+ years of usage, it finally burned. Based on other reviews, I gave Caldera Power Services a try. Chris answered the phone and with some photo exchanges, provided suggestions, and scheduled an appointment. He was on time, courteous and professional. I now have a NEMA 14-50 receptacle with some safety cautionary measures which Chris suggested. Initial test with charging looks good. I am happy with the result. Thank you. read more

Chris transformed our dark, uninviting garage into a garage flooded with convenient light! And he also did it under a time crunch. My husband and I are doing a big garage fix-up project and asked Chris if he could wire our garage with a new switch, outlet, and lighting all within a very limited amount of time (which was very unrealistic of us), and we had a budget constraint too. Despite that, Chris graciously and patiently worked with us, providing power-ful wisdom and en-light-ening advice. We are extremely happy with his high-quality work as well as his honest and helpful communication, and are so thankful for the nice bright lights that we have in our garage now. I am no longer as reluctant about going in there in the evening to do laundry...haha. read more

I needed several electrical jobs done around my home and found Caldera Power Services on Yelp. I found comments and feedback comforting and called the business immediately. Chris, the business owner, was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. He sent a friendly reminder the morning of the appointment and was punctual (that's HUGE for me!). He assessed my electrical needs, provided information on what he will be doing, worked diligently and, most importantly, acknowledged my dogs! His pricing is very reasonable and I highly recommend! read more

Chris is outstanding. He is trustworthy, friendly, and fair. He will make sure you are satisfied with his work. I ran into a complex project and he would only charge me for the time he worked and not the time he spent diagnosing the solution. I can not say enough good things about him. He is truly an oldworld craftsman that takes pride in his work. i whole heartedly recommend him. read more

I needed to upgrade my electrical service. After 5 or 6 electricians never returned my phone calls, I contacted Chris via Yelp. He came over on Friday afternoon and after we discussed what needed to be done, he showed up on Monday at 9 am as promised. Chris was efficient. He did not need to clean up the work area in the master bedroom because he did not leave anything to clean up. That impressed me. Thework was excellent. Very professional. And his price was reasonable. I highly recommend Chris. read more

I am not a frequent Yelp reviewer but when you are so lucky to have found someone as great as Chris, it's worth sharing. I was so lucky to have connected with him. He is kind and honest and incredibly professional. What I thought was going to be a pretty straight forward job turned out to be much more complicated - and maybe not even possible - but he figured out how to do it and his fee was reasonable considering the amount of work it required. (He installed a Tesla brand car charged on the side of my house.) Other people I had called were either too busy or extremely expensive or both - mostly both. Chris came when promised and did the job beautifully without rushing off and being completely transparent with me as to what it was going to cost and how long it would take to complete. I wish him continued success because he deserves it. read more

We had accumulated several small electrical jobs at our house that needed to be addressed. We were glad that Chris was willing to help us with them. I spoke with him just before the holidays, and Chris said he was already booked up but would contact me in case anything opened up. He kept his word. He arrived promptly at our home. He listened to what we wanted done and offered solutions. He helped us locate parts & fixtures that needed to be replaced and went to get them for us. He worked efficiently and cleaned up afterwards. I had read Chris's Yelp reviews before calling him and they are true to our experience working with him--Chris deserves all of the great reviews he receives. We recommend him highly and would not hesitate to call him again for future electrical work at our home. read more

Chris is GREAT!!! He knows his stuff about electrical wiring. I would give him 10+ stars if I could. I tried 2 other electricians thru YELP and they couldn't fix a 3-way SMART switch. Thomas Edison would be proud of Chris. read more

Chris was on his way to my home right after I called. That was the fastest time getting here that I've ever seen from anyone! I have a Turkish lamp that came from Turkey and I could not get it to work. I had the adapter but I ordered a voltage converter from Amazon thinking that was the problem, going from 220 volts to 110 volts. It didn't work. I got new E14 light bulbs which are for European lamps. Didn't work. I called Caldera Power Services and Chris did some troubleshooting. He found out that some of the wiring in the top of the lamp came loose. He fixed it and I was so amazed!! It looks great with the light bulbs lit. I thought the house call was rather expensive but I never would have figured out how to fix it myself. read more

I can't say enough good things about Chris and he comes with our highest recommendation! He was busy and had a conflict, but he came anyway, made accommodations, and after an exhausting, four-hour, fact-finding mission, discovered the underlying problem, and solving our very puzzling electrical mystery! he was very patient and exhausted all possibilities until he found the problem. Thank you, Chris! You saved our home from a potential fire! Note, this socket was in a closet behind a row of clothing so it was not visible. read more

See all

Chris is an amazing master of his trade! He was very kind, professional, and reasonably priced. He laid out my options and did not try to up sell me in any. He was booked solid for the next few weeks but offered to keep me on standby in case he had some time free up. He contacted me one weekday around 4pm and offered to come by. Thought he was just coming to take a look but he was willing to do the job right away and spent the next couple hours getting it done. Tesla charger installation came out just the way I hoped it would. I have experience dealing with contractors and this is about as good as it gets. read more

Chris came highly recommended by someone who gives me great referrals. He did not disappoint! Chris was on time , professional, trustworthy, knowledgeable, patient, and kind. I'd like to start by saying a couple of electricians wouldn't even touch the job that I needed done. I showed Chris what I thought was the most challenging part of several electrical tasks. He was willing to take the job. Not only did he complete all the tasks I needed done, he did it in such a way that he was cognizant of saving me money as well. My house was built in 1924. You can imagine the crazy stuff that was ok back then. My house is extremely large and has many different levels. He searched high and low for all the different ways in which to resolve these tasks. I have more than three electrical panels. I could go on and on about his skill professionalism and amazing work ethic. I will definitely recommend him to all my clients friends and anyone who asks me for a referral. If there were 10 stars I would've given them to him. Thank you thank you thank you! Chris Caldera as one in 1 million. read more

I hired chris to install a Tesla charger, I changed my mind about the location and chris was more than happy to help with the much harder relocation job. Price obviously was more but very reasonable and I highly recommend him. read more

I started by requesting a quote from Chris to repair a couple of outlets at my house that had reverse polarity as well as install a GFCI outlet in one of my bathrooms (all issues carried over from prior homeowner). Chris was quick to respond to the RFQ with a very reasonable quote and he was able to schedule me in the following week. During his repair/installation, he took good care of the delicate and old (circa 1942) wiring and educated me on the health of the wiring for future reference. Additionally, he made sure to clean up after his work was complete, which some contractors often times neglect. Even though there were some challenges along the way that required him to install additional parts, he kept to his original quote. I would definitely recommend Chris for any of your residential electrical needs! read more

I contacted Chris several weeks before to make an appointment to install 2 lamp post lights on brick posts and replaced 3 dusk-to-dawn outdoor lights near my garage. At the time I contacted him he was extremely busy but based on the reviews I decided to wait. It was definitely worth the wait. Chris remembered when I was interested in scheduling him to do the work and called me several days ahead to confirm our appointment. Initially I wasn't sure whether I needed to replace the outdoor lights or there was a problem with the electrical but he was able to determine by removing the fixture and testing the power it was a problem with the fixtures. After he replaced him he confirmed all the lights were in good working order and what impressed me even more he added silicone around the fixture to ensure water wouldn't seep behind the fixture to cause potential issues in the future. I've been reluctant to hire an electrician based on Yelp reviews as I've had some bad experiences in the past. But not this time!!! Chris is my go to electrician for all future needs!!! read more

My LED lights have been flickering now and then for a while and I wanted to find out why/make sure it's nothing serious. Chris came on time and helped me check voltage & amp here and there, offered professional suggestions and shared his experience on dimmers and lighting. He is very courteous, noticed me upon arrival, wore shoe covers inside the house, and answered all my questions patiently. We didn't do much change in the end but we were able to eliminate some major concerns. I really appreciate his time and him having a high standard for his own work. read more

I had outlets in my living room that stopped working. I contacted Chris, and he was able to come out the same day. He was great at explaining the tests that he ran and what the results might mean. He found the problem and fixed it quickly. He did such a great job that I have two other projects I've asked him to work on! He's very professional, helpful, and reasonable. read more
