Been working with Horst K Electric for over 30 years from a large remodel to numerous repairs and always get great service. Highly recommended! read more

Last year we bought the 1954 house we'd been renting for 20 years, and it needed serious upgrading. We talked with a few electrical contractors but got the best vibe from Willy. Working with Willy and Claudette and his crew, Moises, Alvaro, has been great. We had them first upgrade to a 200 amp panel from our prior 5 breaker panel. Then we rewired the entire house, and the guys were here for about 5 days. Always very clean and you'd never know they had been there. We have had them come back out to do ceiling fans, garage lighting and recessed lighting. Next up us camera install Great local business to use and Willy is always fair in pricing. Would highly recommend read more

I had had three visits from Sears regarding a leakage of water on my washing machine. The options were nothing's wrong with it, or I have to replace a huge piece of the washing machine for over $600. Horst came out and found the trouble and replaced one little piece costing me about $60. This place is phenomenal read more

I have done about 10 projects with Horst, now also know as Willy's Electric. This has been over about 6 years, the latest projects just last weeks. I should have been steadily reviewing as I might have had more impact. And why that..... Every single job I have done with Horst\Willys has been a success and a pleasure. I have gotten estimates far far higher and from the conversation I don't know that I would have gotten any solid work. Most of the work has involved adding new sockets and lighting mounts, fan mounts, ceiling lights, advanced switch work, but recently a new Condo panel (some call a sub panel). Horst/Willy's put one in a little bigger than the very old Zisser(?), set it in almost the same level. They did it in about 3 hours. And it was only about $1600. I added some socket work separately. And it is prepped for adding My neighbor, with the exact same system paid about $5,000 ....they ended up with a very large box that sticks out of the wall. And it took 2 days. More to trim it. Alvaro and Moses(?) - and ALL others I have worked with, were friendly, careful to be clean, communicated very well, were careful, allowed me to review the wood work and placement as we proceeded (I am a life long DIY and electrical/Electronic tech.) I will stay with them as long as I can and need electrical work. read more

Horst K Electric - Electricians Near Me - Harbor City, California

I solicited bids from a number of electrical contractors, and Willy (the new owner of Horst K. Electric) with over 35 years in the business - was BY FAR the best choice we could have made. Prompt, honest, knowledgeable, and VERY reasonable financially. His two man crew showed up early and replaced and upgraded our electrical fuse box in five hours- and their workmanship was excellent. I can't say enough good things about using Horst K. Electric !!! Check out our before and after pics:u read more

Horst K Electric - Our dangerous , outdated and broken 100-amp fuse box. - Electricians Near Me - Harbor City, California

See all

I am so grateful to Willy and Claudette at Horst. They are so responsive, knowledgeable and trustworthy. They get the job done and do it well. I appreciate the wonderful service and will always call them first! read more

They were able to pinpoint my electrical issue. Great communication and service! Would use again.

I've been using their services for years. It only seems to be getting better. I have had some work done recently: they arrived on time, spread a plastic sheet to minimize debris, they cleaned up after themselves and they finished the job ahead of schedule. The pricing is very reasonable. I have recommended their services to my neighbors and I do the same to everyone else who needs an electrician who knows what they are doing. read more

One day the power went out in part of our house so we called Horst and they sent someone out on the same day. Wilman was very knowledgeable and methodical while trying to troubleshoot our issue and he found the problem quickly. Very please with the service and would highly recommend the company. read more

A man named Willy came out for a low voltage estimate. He walked around in a hurry and didn't listen very well to anything I had to say about the project. I waited a month and no estimate came in and when I called the very nice lady who answered the phone said he would get his estimate to me in two days and was sorry about the delay but he forgot about it and was on a two week vacation. Well the estimate never came in. read more

I have been lucky enough to have found Willy Pozo at Horst through my plumber (Al Garcia Plumbing in Torrance, Ca). Willy is such a nice, patient, honest, and talented electrician, I almost hesitate to share, but he deserves a big 5 points. Thank you Willy, for everything! read more

Worst company ever. It took us forever to set up an appointment and though the technician knows what the heck is doing, the lady who answers the phones needs to be fired. She is very rude and when we finally got the bill, we called A few times to pay, but they always said call back next week. Or call back later. They obviously didn't want our money. We had more work that we wanted to get done. But it appears that they do not want to help us by making us wait for forever to finally make an appointment. When we didn't hear the doorbell ring for that appointment, they are now telling us that we have to wait another month for another appointment. We want to pay them thousands of dollars to do electrical work that obviously they don't want to do or collect money for. Find somebody that will answer your calls and is eager to work for you. read more

I wish I'd read the reviews prior to requesting service from Horst Electric. I'm so annoyed! I scheduled my appointment with Horst over the phone about a week before the appointment July 21. I told him the nature of my request that my Ring Doorbell Pro wasn't working and I needed help to figure out what was wrong. My husband and I had tried everything to get it to work and believed the problem was electrical. I took the morning off of work to be home for the appointment. My appointment was between 7:30&8am. Finally when nobody had shown up by 9am I phoned, and they said they thought my appointment was the following week, which I didn't buy since we had confirmed the specific date and time. They said they could get somebody to my house very shortly because I mentioned I needed to leave home no later than 10:45 which is why I'd made the original appointment for early morning. I was promised somebody would be there well before the time I needed to leave. Still by 10am nobody had shown up. Then a few minutes later somebody showed up who had no idea why he was at my house. This was the most unprepared serviceman I've ever encountered. He didn't know or care what my request was. Because he was so late arriving I needed to leave while he was still working so I asked a friend to stay at the house while he finished, which in itself was a huge inconvenience for me. He also didn't seem to care that because he was so late and I had to explain the request to him that this then made me late to my next appointment, which is incredibly rude and disrespectful of my time as well as others'. I was leery of leaving the house with him still working since I didn't want him to leave prior to the job being finished. When I returned home he had already left, and my doorbell still didn't work. He replaced the transformer, but that didn't appear to be the issue. I couldn't tell him this though because he had already left. It was as if nothing had been done! The setup of the Ring is quite basic so that wasn't the problem. Now I'm left with a doorbell that still doesn't work and a random non-itemized bill for $145. I do NOT recommend this company! read more

Horst K Electric - Electricians Near Me - Harbor City, California

Horst, Willie and all the other guys are great. Very fairly priced, on time, and honest. My company (Cornett Plumbing and Heating, INC) has been using these guys on our jobs for years and referring them to our customers who need a good electrician. They've even done work on my own house. Great Company to use if you need electrical work. read more

We called Horst Electric because we had a few problems we wanted to take care of. They were very courteous and friendly. They also know their business and promptly came out the next day. This was during the big heat wave we were having and they ended up being called away on an emergency call. They finished all the inside work and promised to be back as soon as possible, leaving us the worker's cell number in case of problems. We didn't hear from them that day but came home the next to find all the outside work completed! Our son had given them permission to go into our backyard. We received our bill in the mail and were very pleased with it. Everything was itemized and as promised. Thanks Horst Electric! read more

I have never written a review before even though I use plenty of vendors. This company is by far and away one of the best. Called them and I reached someone pleasant, responsive and who listened, Then, I was promised a time frame and delivered. I called other South Bay electricians who were too busy and much less reasonable. It is nice to know there are still good businesses out there and I will be using them for all electrical work in future. read more

Very unhappy with their lack of communication and service. Hired them to go to a rental property to fix an outlet in the kitchen. Technician replaced outlet and told tenant he was going to contact me as there were other electrical issues. I was never contacted. The next day, the outlet they had just fixed, was not working. When tenant called them to let them know, they said there were issues with the wiring and stated the panel was old and should be replaced. My issue is that the technician should have contacted me directly while on the job to let me know his thoughts on the electrical issues and to discuss remedies. Instead, he changed the plug which did not fix the problem and they promptly just invoiced me the $125 house call. They, to this day, have never contacted me to discuss any electrical issues technician supposedly found. Instead of contacting me, they put a note on their invoice. They have no communication skills whatsoever which is very unfortunate. They did not fix the problem, yet had no problem sending a bill. I certainly will never recommend this company to anyone. read more

Horst Electric is a reliable company well worthy of recommendation. Willie and Francisco have done excellent electrical work at our rental properties and primary residence. Among other things, WIllie did a great job installing electrical panels. He was courteous, efficient, honest and very experienced. Francisco did some exterior and interior lighting and installed a couple of light switches and outlets. He did a fantastic job as well and is also very good at his job. They were both very patient and answered all of our questions, their prices were more than fair, and they worked quickly but efficiently. read more

Always ontime, always professional, and always leave everything clean. I have used Horst K for over ten years for small handyman projects to large warehouse and office rewires. The crews are all friendly and accommodating. read more

The electrician was prompt, knew his stuff, didn't tell us we needed to rewire the whole house. Courteous, efficient, and just charged for the service call. Would really recommend this business and will call them for future electrical problems. read more

My experience with Horst thus far has been fantastic! Horst contacted me about what I needed done (circuit breaker kept tripping) and sent Francisco out to investigate. Francisco quickly figured out what needed to be done and had me all fixed up in no time. I won't hesitate to recommend Horst Electric to any of my friends. read more

The billings are very high, and the work is mediocre. Horst is a pretty volatile guy if you ask about a bill.

I don't recommend Horst Electric. They tend to over-bill for time, and Horst gets his temper up if you dare question any billings. I've had much better service and prices from other electricians. read more

BEST SERVICE EVER... Horst and his team have gone out of their way to provide me with great quality work on several occasions. They are fast, neat, professional, polite, and most of all, they know their stuff. I worked at a large fabrication company several years ago where Horst was hired to build a major grid for a new machining department. In a matter of days I watched them build this magnificent work-of-art series of conduits and drops. When everything went online, the system worked flawlessly. Since then, I asked them to rewire my kitchen, then later my family room, and just recently our bathroom, he has also done large jobs at my parents' and my aunt's homes. Everything has always been done exactly as we asked. I am very particular about contractors, but they are the rare company that always comes through for me, and always at an extremely reasonable price. At this point, I am pretty sure that every one of his guys has been to my house for one project or another. And I can honestly say that each one of them have been outstanding. From what I understand, they have all worked for Horst for many years, which says a lot about the type company he runs. I always believe that the quality of work starts from the top. Thank you Horst and Willie and all of your crew. You are the best. read more

We did a number of jobs with Horst, and the workers were prompt and courteous. The company communicated with us promptly and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. Would recommend working with them! read more

Find another company. I hired Horst to install retrofit recessed lights (among other electrical work). He was not the cheapest quote I received (over $10K), but he was recommended from a friend and I initially liked him when I met him. However, the recessed lights he installed did not fully turn off at night (a known issue when using LED lights). When I asked him to fix this problem he was rude and instead blamed it on me for buying the wrong switches (Lutron Maestro) even though they are popular switches because of their added functions. When I asked him why he didn't tell me these switches may not work before he installed them, he got belligerent and insulted me. Then he hung up. For those of you considering LED lights controlled by a Lutron Maestro switch, I would not recommend Horst for the job. He was unable to make that system work and eventually told me that they would need to install switches with less functionality (Lutron Diva). Moreover, if you're looking for someone professional who takes responsibility for their mistakes (and won't be rude and insult you), then I would NOT recommend Horst either. read more
