    Two closet recessed lights installed.

    Cardenas Electric recently installed interior and exterior lighting, wall outlets, and rewired our garage after recently moving in. We were surprised how quickly they were able to get everything done. Javier and his sons showed up early, on time, and ready to work. We appreciated that they truly cared about our home, laying out blankets to protect the floors and keep the debris centralized. Any little extra request was responded to with such willingness. We look forward to using Cardenas Electric again in the future for our electrical needs.

    A few of the recess lighting that was added.

    I recently hired Javier to install recessed lighting throughout my entire home, along with new electrical connections for ceiling fans. As someone who is very particular about work done in my home, I was thoroughly impressed with his expertise, attention to detail, and respect for my space. Javier's work was great--everything functions perfectly, and the installation was clean and professional. What really stood out to me was how considerate he was of my home and my pets, which I truly appreciate. He took the time to ensure everything was done right, and his communication was excellent throughout the process. I'm extremely happy with the results and will absolutely hire Javier again for future projects. I've already recommended him to family and friends--he's trustworthy, skilled, and a true professional. If you need an electrician who does exceptional work, Javier is the one!

    Recessed lights on the living room high ceiling

    Updated on March 22, 2024. We needed more recessed lights in three more rooms. Of course, we would not call anyone else except Cardenas Electric. The living room lights had to be done on a high ceiling, and they did it flawlessly with minimal cutting of the drywall, to reduce the patching work later. In the other room, there was absolutely no cutting, the lights look awesome. They even installed the dimmer switch for the lights. As always, they arrived on time, and finished even before we had expected. Javier and his team Gabriel and Javier Jr. and other technician( forgetting the name, sorry) are trustworthy and experts in their field. Think not twice before you call them for electrical work.

    Javier (and team) are absolutely life savers! Today they made a pit stop to replace a warm (worn and old) outlet in between their schedule to make sure I could sleep sound tonight! I've used them in the past to do some specialty wiring for my garage. I recommend using them yourself, see what an amazing guy this is! Honest-won't upswell on unnecessary items, reliable-shows up when he says, punctual-on time, knowledgeable-knows all the answers to my questions, caring-takes good care of his clients and their homes, educated-and he shares his knowledge! Amazing local small business!

    Remodeled bonus room with new LED lights and outlets.

The electrician quickly diagnosed the issue and identified a problem with the meter installation. Using advanced diagnostic tools and a systematic approach, they pinpointed the root cause quickly and clearly explained what would be required to fix it. What stood out most was their honesty. It would have been easy to push for an expensive repair, but instead, they suggested giving a try with the builder's electrical contractors before committing to their proposed work, as the house is relatively new (3 years), though it is out of the builder's standard 1-year warranty. Fortunately, that option worked, and I didn't need to move forward with repairs through Nick's Electrics. Even so, they didn't seem disappointed in the slightest. In fact, they genuinely seemed happy that I was able to get the issue resolved most cost-effectively. That kind of integrity and customer-first mindset is rare these days. The diagnosis they provided was invaluable and ultimately helped resolve the issue much faster. To top it all off, the inspection and diagnosis were provided at no cost. I highly recommend Nick's Electrics to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy, and skilled electricians. Their expertise, transparency, and genuine care for their customers have earned my respect and a well-deserved 5-star rating.

He even took the time to greet my children and was very warm and friendly with them. Daniel was able to determine that a faulty line/wire was causing the power issues in the bedrooms. After checking the attic, he also discovered some problematic wiring and conditions involving the subpanel. He recommended running new wiring and replacing a damaged breaker in the attic panel, which would not only fix the problem but provide a much safer setup and help prevent potential hazards like an electrical fire. The price was fair, and the work took about two hours, just as he estimated. He worked diligently the entire time without taking a break. I honestly felt bad for him being up in our attic because it had to be easily 120° up there! I offered him water throughout the job, which he graciously accepted. Before leaving, Daniel also gave me an estimate to upgrade our existing breaker box. That price seemed very reasonable as well, especially compared to estimates I've received from other companies in the past. Overall, great experience. Daniel was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and got the problem taken care of. We'll definitely be reaching out to Nick' Electric again for future electrical repairs and other work. Thanks again, Daniel!

When the technician arrived, he recommended upgrading to an EV-specific outlet, explaining it was the better choice. I appreciated the recommendation, but I was disappointed that it increased the price by $100. I felt that option should have been discussed during the initial phone calls so I could make an informed decision before the appointment. After I posted my original review, the owner personally came back to my home to make things right. He offered to refund the $100 price difference, but I declined because I didn't feel it was fair after the work had already been completed. Instead, he replaced two breakers that genuinely needed replacement at no charge. I really respect a company that stands behind its work and makes the effort to address a customer's concerns. While I still believe the pricing options should have been explained upfront, I also believe it's important to recognize excellent customer service when a business takes responsibility and follows through. Because of how they handled the situation afterward, I'm happy to update my review and would not hesitate using them again. Thank you Sam and Robert!

I was able to uninstall the shower head, install the filter and reinstall the shower head in one bathroom, but I didn't have the tools or elbow grease to do the same in the second bathroom. Within minutes of submitting the request, I received a message from Nick with his cell phone number, asking me to send him photos of the work. I texted him and he responded quickly confirming he could do the work with an estimate and potential time to schedule the job. He required a small deposit via Zelle. I was a little skeptical about the deposit, but he affirmed his business means more to him than the deposit and his word is worth more as well. He was able to get me on the schedule the following day and confirmed a time later that evening. That day, he texted me telling me when he was on his way and with an estimated time of arrival. When he arrived, he got straight to work. He confirmed the shower head was REALLY on there! He was able to remove it, as well as the stupid flow restrictor I'd asked the previous plumber to not install--but he did anyway--threaded the connections, and installed the shower filter and shower head quickly. He also gave me an opportunity to douse the shower head in Lime Away before reinstalling! We tested the connection and he made one minor adjustment and then was done! He charged me his minimum rate and it was worth it. Very nice gentleman, very professional and honest! I appreciate he takes Zelle and Venmo. He informed me of some of the other types of projects he does as well, and I intend to use his services in the future! Thank you, Nick!

Nick was the first to respond within minutes...at 8 o'clock at night! We FaceTimed him (after seeing all of his five star Yelp reviews) to show him our problem, and he gave immediate advice, which we followed. He said he would be out first thing in the morning. He was! We had to replace a few circuits that were fried and decided to do a full breaker box maintenance (to prevent this from happening again) because it probably hadn't been serviced...ever...in 25 years. Nick went far over and above expectations. He threw in upgrading a garage outlet while he was here and put in a whole house surge protector at a very discounted rate since we went with the full breaker box maintenance package. Our breaker box now looks and works like it is brand new. His work comes with a two year warranty! Nick was extremely personable and honest. I added him to my contacts because we will be contacting him with any future electrical issues. In short, there is a reason for all of the five star reviews, you will rate him with 5 stars as well when call him for service, I guarantee it!
