The technician was friendly and prompt. He completed the job quickly and efficiently. The price was also reasonable and we would call on them again! Our dimmer is working well and we are enjoying it. read more

I contacted JCE after I needed some new outlets and wanted to have more lights installed in my garage. They came out gave me a very reasonable estimate for what I wanted. They went and got the perfect LED lights for my garage and I even was able to add 2 additional ones on the fly which I really appreciated so they would all match and give me maximum light coverage. Great company, Great employees. I will be using them again when I need an electrician. *also of note I thought I needed another sub panel during the initial estimate and was told I def did not. Something that could have been an easy sell since I thought I needed it. It was great to see the honesty and that there was no attempt to upswell me something I didn't need* read more

We got power pulled out to our backyard and the process was so easy. Thank you so much. We felt the cost was right and the job turned out a bit more than expected and the team crushed it. Repeat customer here!! read more

CUSTOMERS BEWARE: Disorganized company, terrible communication, and worst of all the OWNER IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY. Find another local electrician! After a negative experience with the owner, Joe Casillas, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau on 9/24/2025. As of 10/2/2025, J Casillas Electric is yet to respond. Problem: The owner will not honor their word or written contract with the customer. We have a written contract with Joe Casillas Electric (JCE) for them to perform work on September 24th, 2025, however JCE has refused to do so. Proposed Resolution: To remedy the situation, I am simply asking for Joe Casillas Electric to complete the work that we agreed to, with the materials that we agreed to, and at the price that we agreed to. The details are expressed in a written agreement dating August 21st, 2025. The agreement stipulates that 1 inch conduit will be used and that the price is $1,350. Additionally, the conduit should be metal, not PVC. Timeline: In August 2025, we receive a recommendation for Joe Casillas Electric from our neighbor. We call and schedule an estimate with Joe. Joe comes and provides an estimate of $1,950 for the job. Renee, a receptionist at JCE, calls us to ask if we wanted to move forward with the estimate. We tell her that we are seeking multiple estimates and that we will get back to them. Joe calls me and offers to price match another estimate. When I explain to him that another estimate is $1,350, he voices doubts about the validity of the estimate and says that the other company must be using cheaper materials like PVC conduit, as opposed to metal conduit, and that it is ¾" thick. He asserts that his estimate reflects metal conduit and that it is 1 inch thick, but that if I can provide a copy of the estimate that he would verify it and perform the same quality work that he promised at the price of $1,350. Of note is that in reviewing the first estimate that he provided on August 13th, 2025, there is no mention of the thickness of the conduit. On 8/15/2025, I receive the revised estimate and I see that ¾" conduit is listed as the material to be used. I call the company and explain to Renee the conversation that I had with Joe about his skepticism of the lower estimate and that it seems hypocritical to voice concern over another company using certain materials that you are using in your own work. Renee agrees and says that it must be a mistake that she made and that she would correct it. On August 21st, 2025, I receive the updated estimate and it reflects the use of 1 inch conduit. I agree to have Joe Casillas Electric complete the work and I pay the required deposit. We schedule the job for September, 24th, 2025. On September 23rd, 2025 I receive a call from Renee and she asks me if someone can come by in the next 15 minutes to measure to see what materials they need for the job. I speak with the workers while they are here and they mention that they plan to use PVC conduit, not metal conduit. I explain to them what transpired with Joe and Renee, and that metal conduit needed to be used. On September 24th, Joe's employees show up to complete the job and they bring ¾" conduit to do so. I ask them what happened and they said that Joe told them to get ¾" conduit. Being that this is not what we discussed or agreed to, I speak to Joe to see what is happening. He tells me that "we should be fine with ¾" conduit." I ask him to honor his word and our contract by using 1 inch conduit. Joe claims that he doesn't like my attitude, that he talks to a lot of people so he can't be sure of what he said, and that it would be best for me to find another company to complete the job. When I try to explain to him what happened, he hangs up on me. Shortly thereafter and still on September 24th, 2025, Renee calls me to return my deposit. I ask her what happened and said that I didn't deserve to be treated like this. She responded saying that she is "not sure what's going on with Joe." When I continued to express my frustration with Joe and what I've been told, Renee hangs up on me. read more

Once he arrived, the electrician was very efficient at diagnosing the problem with my doorbell and fixed it quickly with no fuss.

JCE has given consistent great professional service. They are punctual and very communicative. I texted them to give them a heads up on what I needed serviced and they promptly replied with availability. They provide excellent value and dependability. It's nice to find a company you can trust to get it done. Thanks JCE. read more

Nice man that overcharges. Did not fix the problem and was charged $225. He said it would take an additional $1000 to fix the problem. Then I was told it would be $2000. I did not trust what he said I should do and terminated the work. read more

We've had Joe and his employees do two jobs for us, couldn't be happier. Excellent work, great service and reasonable prices. Highly recommend J Casillas Electric for electrical needs. read more

I just had my electrical panel updated to separate my stove and refrigerator breakers. The team that responded were on-time, very friendly, super efficient, and worked very hard to thread the wiring from my attic accross my vaulted ceiling that didn't have crawl space. They made a couple holes inside the cupboard above my fridge which is perfectly concealed. I feel very satisfied with their work and now at ease that my major appliances are safely connected and It's not a fire risk due to an overloaded circuit. I'll definitely call them again for the additional work I need done. read more

Joe and his team are fantastic. We have used their team multiple times. They communicate in advance on their arrival, are always on time, work quickly and ensure high quality work. They will continue to be our go-to electricians! read more

Called to have electrical issues addressed. Explained that new GFCI outlets kept tripping. Electrician had told me that he charged $125/hr. Said he needed to run a ground wire approx 8 feet. Told it was quick and simple job. It took about 10 minutes. He went into check GFCI and was attempting to finish wiring. He cut our newly wired electrical inside by accident. He had to work into old junction box already there. I told him that I was not responsible for that new work he created. He told me that I would not be charged. Owner then proceeded to charge me $450 which included the extra wiring (mine) to fix his mistake. Bill never corrected. Took approx 20-25 minutes total. Let hot wires uncapped, sticking out of junction box, uncapped and no plate. I will be paying $150 which I believe is over paid. Spoke with owner who reluctantly agreed. EDITED:Now is lying, harassing me and treating me with court. Says it's not his company/worker. I have numerous pictures and video from before, during and after. PLEASE BEWARE OR BE CAUTIOUS! read more

I made a few phone calls to get an estimate on installing beautiful new ceiling fans & raiding the existing ugly shop lights up and Jos Casillas responded immediately! He sent a representative out a couple of days later and gave me a great quote right away. To be sure I was making the right decision, I called around so I had at least 4 quotes to compare. Oh my!! That was a lesson in patience! It took over a month, 9 company's, many phone calls, text messages and emails only to bring me back to the first quote! I thought it might take a while for them to start my job, but they started within a week of our mutual agreement. Jose & Lalo we're amazing! They were timely, efficient, friendly & kept the workspace very clean. We started by mapping out the design layout (they made what I thought might be impossible, possible). Fans & Crystal bases were installed, then they came back and raised rows of ugly warehouse lighting up and out of the way of the fans It all looks amazing! It's everything I had hoped for & more read more

I will use them again when needed and highly recommend this company for all of your electrical needs. read more

Joe and his crew did a fantastic job on our master bathroom remodel. They replaced 14 halogen recessed lights with LED recessed lights and moved a number of switches and outlets to accommodate the changes we were making. The entire crew were very professional, thorough and pleasant. They also cleaned up each day after they finished. I highly recommend J CasIla's Electric! read more

I booked an appointment for between 12-1. At 9:00 that morning a lady called and said they were too busy and they didn't have an opening for 2 weeks. She booked me for 9:00 two weeks later. On that day no one had called me to confirm, so I texted them to confirm someone was coming at 9:00 and someone texted back "yes". At 9:15 I texted to ask where he was and he called to say they had me down at 12. I explained that was my original appointment which they had to reschedule and the new one was at 9 today. He said he could only make it as 12. Not ONCE did he apologize. Poor organization in their office, poor customer service. read more

Excellent service. On time for day and time scheduled. Excellent work. Will definitely use them again for any electrical work I will need.

JC electric did an outstanding job on my lighting and fan installation. I had a total of 10 recessed led lights, 5 led light fans, two chandeliers and 8 dimmer switches (including 2 smart switches) installed. I was quoted a two day job and the work started promptly at 9 am on day 1 and ended 4 pm on day 2. Joe(owner) was very responsive to my questions and professional in all our communications. I was quoted a fair and competitive price based on the five quotes I received. I was especially happy with the amount of time it took for JC to come out and do an estimate as well as how quickly the job was scheduled once we agreed on a price. I would recommend JC electric to anyone and look forward to having future work done with them. read more

I found J. Casillas Electric through Angi's List. I was in a panic because I had an issue with my electric box. Mr. Casillas responded promptly and helped me diagnose the issue, saving me hundreds of dollars. This is especially important to me as a single woman, because we are sometimes lied to by unscrupulous folks, car mechanics etc. Mr. Casillas' honesty and great ratings on Angi's list made me feel extra reassured. Thank you so much for helping me out in a pinch! 5 stars, highly recommended. read more

Electrical panel replaced at a significantly lower price than competitors with no sacrifice in the quality of the job.

This is the type of estimate you can expect with these people. Beware using this group for anything. I described the work over the phone and was told it would be around $590. Guy comes out to look at the job and all of a sudden it's $850. With every item he quoted me on the phone an average of $50 more. Even an extra charge of $175 (if you can believe that) just to program some remotes. When asked what the guy saw that increased his estimate so much, got no answer. Started rambling on about the drive out to my place and how hard it is to program remotes. Bunch of bs with no real explanation. Kept telling me this is not a scam, that I don't need to use them. Well they are right about that. However, they wasted a week of my time when I could have been pursuing a company with reasonable rates. Don't waste your time here. read more

Great electrician. Fixed issue in my home without issue. Other electrician was unable to repair but J Casillas did the job.

I have nothing but great things to say about this company. They came out quickly to give me a quote and made an appointment to do the job on the spot. They made it simple and did a fabulous job. Both of the gentleman that I interacted with were kind, happy, efficient, and trust worthy. I am not typically a review writer but I felt compelled due to the service. Now a days it is hard to find tradesmen that are reliable and do not gouge on prices. I can say with true sincerity if you need electrical work done you will not be disappointed with them! read more

This was the most Uncomunicative/ Unorganized, disorganized company that did nothing but insult me with never calling back never following through on anything, Making appointment not showing up/ then 2 hours later sending somone without calling, then sending someone who did not bring any tools to check the problem, acting like it has already been trouble shooted, when Nothing had been Inspected. Just Terrible Communications, or just NO COMMUNICATION DUH read more

I just had recessed lighting done in my home and I am totally happy with the finished product. Joe was very nice and accommodating with scheduling, and their prices are very reasonable, to be honest, the most reasonable prices I found.
