We had a HUGE undertaking to increase our electrical capacity at our business and Jerry came highly recommended by one of our employees who had work done by him in the past. They upgraded our panel and added more power to our unit. They were on time, professional and had even more experience than our previous electrician. Their quote was competitive and they did a better job labeling the circuits and panels than we've had before. Super helpful! We will most DEFINITELY be using them again for more ongoing electrical needs. So freaking happy to have found this team! read more

We renovated our house, which turned out extremely well thanks in part to CLD Electric. They did an exceptional job with our out outside lights, by garage, under our concrete front porch, our front porch, light, side of the house, motion sensor lighting, and recessed lighting throughout the house. My husband and I received good customer service from the time we called in to the office to the time we met the tech showing up on time. I highly recommend them. You can rely on their quality of service, and it's a family own business here in San Diego, serving all four corners of San Diego. Thank you CLD! read more

I was recently dealing with loss of electricity to one room in my condo. I kept having to turn on and off the breaker associated with the living room. Jeremy came out and diagnosed the issue and got my electricity back up with no more outages or flickering. Took less than an hour! Thanks for the help, Jeremy! read more

Recommended these guys 100% and will use for all future electrical needs. Jerry initially came to assess the project and give a bid. He was on time, was very clear and detailed about how to proceed forward with the project and provided a bid. Come job day, Jerry and Jeremy were on time, ran through the project which was exactly what we discussed during the initial assessment and Jermey completed the entire project solo with precision. Jeremy was a great communicator, maintained a clean work space throughout the project and upon completion, and explained the what's and why's of what was done all with a smile and positive attitude. I felt very comfortable with him in my home and appreciated his awareness of the pets in the home as he was mindful to decrease opportunities for them to run outside. Our sauna is up and running and I couldn't be more satisfied with the services provided. Thanks Jeremy!! read more

To his super experienced technicians. Best in the business. I will recommend this company to all my friends ! They can't be beat. Never been more satisfied in my life ! read more

I had 4 old light fixtures which needed to be replaced with new ones. I swapped out on my own but was unsuccessful to get them to work. I called CLD Electric to troubleshoot the issue. I was informed there in a $90 per 30 minute troubleshooting charge plus $75 trip charge= $165 with a $240 minimum job billing. I was told if I consented to the work, the trip charge would be waived. The electrician removed the first light fixture and identified the problem as being a wiring issue. He accomplished this in 15 minutes. I explained to him that the wiring for the rest of the light fixtures were done the same way. He asked if I wanted him to repair - which meant rewire the light fixture and place onto the wall. I responded, 'yes.' Upon completion, the electrician presented a bill for $420!!! The company overcharged me and explained to me that the continued to charge me $90 per 30 min to troubleshoot the other light fixtures!! After contacting the owner, he agreed to reduce my bill by $90. This was truly appreciated. So for anyone looking to use CLD Electric, please note you will be charged $240 minimum per job regardless of time and effort. read more

CLD Electric - Light fixtures that were on wall, pulled down for troubleshooting, then charged $240 to rewire them and put them back up on the wall. - Electricians Near Me - San Diego, California

Called and spoke with "Carlos" on 3/3 at 1:50pm to make a repair appointment. He took down my information and told me a "tech " would call me back. I never received a call back. I also told him that the address on the companies website did not exist. He could not give me the correct office address. A company with a non existent address and no call back for a service appointment. read more

I chose CLD Electric to replace my electric panel on my home, which was the original panel from 1970s. I got several quotes and Blake provided a fair and competitively priced quote. Jeremy did a great job with the panel replacement and installation. He was well prepared and very knowledgable, he did the prep work prior to the one day install, and worked closely together with the city inspector and SDGE line crew to make sure the job was done well. I would recommend Jeremy and CLD for your electric panel jobs. read more

I had CLD Electric run electrical to a couple different places for my outdoor entertainment area. Very pleased with the entire process; from calling to setup an appointment for a quote to having the work finalized. Staff was great & very responsive. Jeremy is a rock star, worked his tail off at my house. Next time I need electrical, I won't be calling anyone else. read more

High, non-competitive pricing. Was told of one thing I wanted couldn't be done. Dominic just left. I didn't know where he was, then I called him and ask where he was, he said he was at Home Depot getting supplies, then hung up. When he came back with only the new light, I asked him where the plastic cover replacement were, he said he doesn't do that stuff. I told him that I never gave the ok to do this job and he needs to leave. I had another quote by another place/company and they will give me exactly what I want and not only $200 less, but also suggested and will do extra for the job needed. The guy was nice, but his practices were/are questionable read more

Do not contact this company please, they are absolute crooks and racketeers. I had an issue with a hot wire in the main panel in an apartment building in Pacific Beach. My electrician was out of town and the tenant being an old lady I was in a rush to restore the power to her unit. Called CLD Electric based on the good google reviews and sure enough their technician Horlando showed up after warning me that they charge $120 truck fee and $90 for each 30min. I said ok, and Horlando looked at the panel and said there wasn't much he could do as the panel needs to be replaced completely. I asked him to make a by-pass to connect power to the house meter so the tenant could get power quickly. He said ok after making me sign a discharge of responsibility and only if I agreed to pay $980 for the job which was a crazy figure. Given the emergency, I had no choice but to say yes. He reconnected the wires to the house meter, a job that took him less than one hour and half as he had to go to Home Depot to get 2ft of electric wire for the bypass (job itself took 20min). It was an absolute racketeering. Shame on them. Next week, my electrician was back and had a look at the panel, the issue was that the main breaker and meter contacts were a bit oxidized and he cleaned them in less than 20min and everything was fine. I don't know if Horlando was incompetent or exploited the situation but it was a total rip off. I asked them to give me an estimate for replacing the whole meter panel and their price was about 2,5 to 3 times higher than other contractors. Think twice before working with them. read more

Jeremy did a great job. Installed what I needed in a quick time! Highly recommend. Would use again

I recently called CLD to request some troubleshooting after some renovations in the backyard. Oh boy, did this grow fangs and horns. Turns out, there was more to a simple switch than was first thought, due to the re-wiring feats of previous electricians. It took awhile to troubleshoot and fix - Jeremy was patient, professional and such a nice guy throughout his 3 visits. I. Going to them for all my future work. The price was right, and all the staff I talked to on the phone, including the boss Jerry, were great to deal with. read more

Excellent experience. Jeremy showed up right on time. He diagnosed why our breaker kept tripping and fixed it. He also checked some other outlets and replaced one outlet.

I had a fantastic experience with CLD for doing an entire house remodel. Blake helped me design the new lighting layout for my kitchen and everything turned out perfectly. He listened to what I wanted but also gave great ideas and recommendations where I needed them. He also added ceiling fan boxes to each of my bedrooms. Blake did his best to work with us on scheduling and was very responsive and easy to work with. What a great team to work with! read more

I had a problem with a circuit upstairs in my condo. I called and everyone was super professional but the receptionist didn't want to discuss pricing and left it to the tech. Orlando shows up at my condo at 3:00pm as expected. I tell him the issue, and show him the breakers and all the CFGI outlets I have and have already reset. He resets the one in my bathroom and repairs my problem with one finger push. I told him that I did that earlier and nothing changed. He then starts to tell me the itemized total $165.00. This is why I wanted to discuss pricing for everything before he came out. $90 for 30 min of troubleshooting, which he did not need to do because I told him the issue. Also he was not even here for that duration of time. Then I was charged the service fee of 75 dollars, which I was content on paying because ultimately he was able to fix my issue. For some reason everyone dodges the question so that the tech can bend you over later. Not only did I tell him the problem that I had exactly, I also showed him how to fix it. I'm upset because he was here for less than 5 min of work and didn't need to use any of his tools, yet I was charged a crazy amount. Then we had an argument about how much it should be, The tech goes on to lecture me in my own home comparing his service to a car locked door situation and it costing 90 dollars for a 5 min job to unlock his car. I'd gladly pay $90 for him to come out and press a button. I had already paid the man. At this point I just wanted him out the house but he just stood there. I had to walk him out. So it is 3:10pm, I thanked him for the fix but expressed that the 90 dollar fee on top of their service charge is unnecessary in this situation and I can be mad about it. I will not be using this company again. In response to Jerry's reply. If you read the review, he did fix my issue. So i still needed him to come out. And you may want to check you order of operations. The woman on the phone clearly states that the technician will go over pricing with you when he arrives. May want to go back to your recording. Also, if I knew speaking to you was even an option, I would have. The technician stated he can't do anything else for me as far as the overpriced fee goes. I have no intention of flaming any business. Just sharing my experience. Isn't this what yelp is for? I hope your business still thrives. I have a family to take care of which I am sure you do too. I just won't do it by charging bogus fees. I also won't be lectured in my own living room in front of my family for asking for a more reasonable price. Have a good day Jerry... Wish I read the yelp reviews before calling you guys. "Bait and switch" method was totally applied here. read more

Working with Jeremy was great! He quickly diagnosed the problem and had everything fixed within the hour. The whole process of scheduling and billing felt professional and reliable with no surprises. Jeremy took his time to explain the cost and what he fixed. Highly recommend! read more

I am interested in installing EV charging in my garage. The catch is, I live in a multi-unit dwelling with a detached garage so it is a little tricky. I worked with Jerry who had an answer for all of my questions, of which there were many. He helped me understand the requirements and limitations I faced with the type of install I was trying to do. He also recommended other configurations that I didn't even think of. I will absolutely reach out to CLD Electric for my next project. read more

I needed an electrician in San Diego and went searching, I talked to a few electricians but none as professional as CLD Electric. Having never used a electrical contractor I wasn't sure what to expect. The electrician, Scotty was informed - on time and helpful. Since they handle everything electrical related I asked about some switches and outlets and getting some installed. He said it was no problem and took care of it then. The lighting fixture was a big upgrade, my kitchen has a lot of light in it now. If you're in need of a professional electrician in San Diego CA my suggestion is to call CLD Electric, they'll take good care of you. read more

CLD came did two jobs for me. The first one went well. The second job request was for my home. Two breakers where replaced 840.00. I approved the work and the electrician replaced them however two weeks later the circuits where out again. I called another electrician who came out replaced the two circuits again, and also the buzz bar, that needed replacement. The total was 531.00. A much better deal and a better outcome. read more

Unbelievable... Totally took advantage of my mother. We agreed to the $90 thirty minutes to find the problem fee as well as a $75 service fee to arrive which would be applied to work if I choose them to do it... This guy literally had to pull one plug and reattach the wire.. Price... Ready... $240.00 OUTRAGEOUS! STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. I will say that the person who showed was nice about it, but couldn't do anything about how the company charges. read more

I gave CLD Electric a ring because they service in my area. I spoke with Jerry over the phone and walked him through my electric issue at home. It only took him a minute or less to figure out the issue. He didn't have to come to my home to troubleshoot which would have cost money. Instead, the problem was resolved over the the phone. Thank you, Jerry for patiently explaining to me what caused the problem and how to quickly resolve the issue. I appreciate your expertise! read more

The technician came out his name was Jeremy. He was extremely professional. He was helpful with every question I had, and responded accordingly I enjoyed having him there. I felt safe and secure and I knew he was knowledgeable with the work that he does. I would hire him again and again, and again, thank you Jeremy for your assistance. read more

Exactly what I needed. Flickering lights, crackle in the wires. An electrical contractor was badly needed. The electrician with CLD Electric, Peter was knowledgeable, hard working and had a good attitude. I had them evaluate the lighting and replace the old lighting that had been there. They put in several new lighting fixtures. They changed out the wiring in the wall that was crackling. Installed several new switches with the dimmers. 5 stars to the entire organization at CLD Electric. I highly recommend these electricians for all electric service needs. read more

Highly-highly recommend this electrician for all service needs in your home and residence. I used CLD electric for several lighting projects around my home including a couple 52 in fan in the back patio. The level of professionalism and service displayed by Peter the electrician throughout the process of installing the fans and lights is some of the best I've ever had. Peter was knowledgeable and had a go-getter approach to figuring stuff out. I had been using a handyman for my electric repairs and not getting great results. Now that I have a profession electric company to work with I can really begin to lighten up my living room and kitchen. I look forward to working with your company to install some canned lighting this fall. Thanks again! read more

Had an electrician come out to my RV to help install the wiring for my two AC units. The guy was punctual and friendly but he was asking way too many personal questions about my parents marriage, wife, guns, things of that nature. Questions that I believe should not be asked by someone whom I don't personally know. My AC system has been making a surging should every couple minutes since the install. He mentioned needing to put in a transformer that is just a cheap Chinese part that usually cost $20 and they don't last too long. Sounds like the surge is going to there. I had called them out to give me an estimate on the install. He came out there, and immediately started working. 2 hours later, the install was done (not correctly) and I was charged $550 "with all the discounts he could give me". But I was never told an actual estimate. So how can I know I was just being lied to? Because $550 is an absurd amount for 2 hours of work and a cheap $20 part that won't last long. read more

This past week I called CLD electric as I was looking for an electrician in San Diego to help me with my light fixtures.

I'm impressed with their focus on the job and the desire to get it done right the first time. I'll be using CLD electric for all my electrical needs. read more

CLD Electric - CLD Electric installed my new light fixtures - Electricians Near Me - San Diego, California

We worked with Orlando at CLD electric (and some limited encounters with Jerry). Orlando installed an outlet ~160ft from our home for a pool and completed work outlined on a home inspection report we received prior to buying our current home. It was a substantial amount of work - replacing all outlets in the kitchen, adding junction boxes in the attic for exposed splices, fixing faulty wiring and substandard work completed by previous electricians (or by the previous owner). I asked for details on every installation and how it addresses items in the inspection report, which Orlando provided. He was respectful of our request to keep a mask on indoors and was flexible about scheduling. I also believe we were given a price that was more than fair. Jerry returned my initial call to schedule the work on the same day and had Orlando out to start on the pool outlet the next day. Initially the timer for the pool outlet was faulty. When I called, Jerry offered to have it fixed that same day (we opted to wait until the day the rest of the work was scheduled). I am very satisfied by their professionalism and timeliness and will be returning for any future work we need. read more
