Pence electric saved me! I had to get some outlets moved asap for backsplash measurement and Scott was able to fit me in after his job. Aiden and him were professional, efficient, and clean with their work. I loved their solutions oriented approach and creativity. As a female who is project managing my home remodel, i felt respected. I've done a lot of remodeling and home flipping and find that contractors think I don't know what I am talking about and try to take advantage, definitely didn't feel this way with these guys. And while I am sure my job is not the largest they will have, I appreciated that he still showed up to help. I'll definitely remember this when we have a big job in the future. Definitely recommend these guys. Thanks Scott and Aidan for being some of the good ones!! read more

I lost power to all bedroom outlets. After a little troubleshooting, Scott and his son located the problem. They had to move furniture in order to replace the faulty outlet. They worked quickly and Scott let me know that I could get other work done because there was still time on the clock. The GFI outlet in the bathroom wasn't working right and so that was replaced. Out of all the electricians in Oceanside I feel very fortunate that I picked Scott's company. He is honest and charged a fair price. I will recommend him to friends and neighbors. read more

Scott and Aiden are knowledgeable, efficient and very personable. I recommend them without reservation. Did a great job on an almost impossible installation of a bathroom outlet. read more

We can't say enough about how much we appreciate the work done by Pence on our father's condo. Scott and Aidan arrived early and were respectful and thorough. They were faced with flawed design and wiring issues, and they took the time to fully investigate and solve the problems with minimal construction on the walls. They also took the time to go over questions and concerns from our Dad. They come highly recommended to anyone who is looking for high quality, reliable service and very reasonable rates. read more

Pence Electric - Pence Electric is Amazing! - Electricians Near Me - Oceanside, California

Scott has done several electrical jobs for us around our home. He installed a 240 outlet in our garage for an electric vehicle, checked wiring on a faulty ceiling fixture, and most recently installed an outdoor heater. He is fair, honest, on time, communicates well, and skilled. Highly recommend Scott! read more

Scott is a top notch electrician that knows his stuff. Our home in Encinitas has suffered from an intermittent circuit breaker problem for years. We've had a number of electricians try to fix it over the years, but it's always been a problem. Scott went to work on it and found the problem. He did this work a little over a year ago and I'm happy to say that we haven't had a problem since. His pricing is fair and his work is excellent. I was happy with his work then and I'm happy with it now. In fact I forgot to leave a review after he did the work, and I came back to Yelp to find his contact info so I could hire him again... and realized I didn't leave a review last time, so I'm doing it now! read more

I could not be any happier with the service I received from Pence Electric. Had an urgent need to move an electrical box for a wall oven install. Scott showed up that same day, provided me with a free estimate (and a super reasonable price). Did the work efficiently and even helped me install the actual oven so I didn't need to have the installers return. He was professional and courteous. I will definitely use his services again! read more

Scott did an amazing job with our various needs. From installing dimmers and timers, a ceiling fan, exterior lights and checking our new home for any out of code/safety concerns, we would highly recommend him and plan to use him for any future electrical needs! read more

We used Scott less than one year ago and were thrilled with his service. We agreed with much of what was said here. Then, today we hired him again for a similar job. His prices blew our socks off! I almost fell out of my chair when I opened his bill. His rates have gone up significantly. He never notified us, and we never thought to ask given he was here not long ago. Our bill blew me away. When I asked about it, he said he raised prices due to workers comp and hiring another person. Furthermore, there were no receipts provided on parts, but a flat $150 charge. When I questioned him directly, he basically faulted me for not getting an estimate up front. I was less than thrilled. Make sure you get him to give you an estimate before you hire him! His work was excellent, but you'll pay dearly for it! He's much higher than similar installers I've worked with. read more

Absolutely Awesome! He was very reassuring and helpful! My 32 year old main circuit breaker had melted from arcing- which I didnt realize. I got a prompt return call the same day. He came and fixed the problem within 24 hrs including finding a replacement breaker which was not easy. I was very impressed with his expertise and friendliness. read more

Scott is easily the most friendly, flexible, and creative electrician I've worked with in OC. His pricing is competitive for our pricey market, but it's his work ethic and never surrender attitude that really makes him the only electrician we are willing to work with in OC. He did all the electrical work during our bathroom remodels and we couldn't be happier. read more

Pence Electric was AWESOME! He responded to us promptly, showed up on time and was professional and knowledgeable. Very reasonably priced and would trust him completely. read more

Scott was quick to return my call and came out the next day. He showed up on time and was very polite. We are remodeling our master bathroom and he knew I was on a time crunch to get the electrical work out of the way for other subs to come in. He quickly worked up a bid and came out the day after to do the whole job. I came home from work, everything was done and ready for drywall. Price was very fair. If you want a good guy to come into your home and do a great job give him a call. He will get my future business no doubt. read more

Pence Electric is the first contractor I've worked with that writes up and emails a digital line item quote. There are never any surprises. Scott is a professional. He is polite, removes his shoes, and treats customers with respect. He gave us good advice, and did great work. My husband and I have used him twice, and have referred him to family and friends. read more

It seems everyone in our neighborhood used Scott for the electric work. Recently We need to install ceiling can light and power outlets, we hired Scott. We are so happy with his work, he is knowledgeable, friendly and offers reasonable price. Now we join all our neighbors to recommend him highly. Two days after he finish our job, we needed to move another power plug due to kitchen remodeling. We called him, he came soon after to move the plug for us. My husband already recommended him to his co-worker. read more

I was having a new double oven installed. But the power was not enough. So we suspected the breaker was the cause. But installation could not proceed. I called all my electricians I knew of and they were all booked. So I called Lighthouse Electric which was highly recommended on Yelp. Paul called me back within 30 minutes. Told him my problem, he said he could not do it that day, but could get there at 8:00 the next morning was that o.k.. I said perfect. He told me Scott would be there. The next morning at exactly 8:00 there was Scott of Pence Electric. Checked the breaker, needed to replace, he had one in truck, changed it out and was done in 30 minutes. Totally fair price. Scott explained he was covering for Paul while out of town. How great is that. Scott be my new electrician from now out. read more

Scott was prompt in returning our phone call, showed up on time, trouble-shooted our issue with outdoor patio lights and outdoor outlets in a timely manner. That same day, we noticed another related issue, Scott came right back and resolved it to our satisfaction. He was professional, reasonably priced and we highly recommend! read more

Easiest trade transaction ever. Found a problem, fixed it, and installed a ceiling fan 20' high, per code. Straightforward estimates and quick, efficient, quality service. Very positive, even-keeled personality. Will definitely use again and recommend to friends. read more

I highly recommend Scott for any electrical work that you need! He was referred to me by my real estate agent who received recommendations from other clients that were very happy with his work. I called Scott after I had another company sent to my house by my home warranty company for a broken outlet. That company recommended that I change every outlet in my house since the outlets were the "older" type and might fail. Of course, this would be out-of-pocket for me since this would not be covered by my home warranty policy. I thought it best to get a second opinion. I had previously hired Scott for some outside electrical work, as well as installation of a ceiling fan, and found him to be professional, honest, and reasonable. His work was excellent -- he was neat and cleaned up thoroughly when he was done. When Scott came over to check our outlets, he found that the broken outlet had not even been repaired properly, so he fixed it, put in a new outlet, and told us that there was really no need to replace all of the outlets unless they fail. So honest! A few days later, the outlet failed again, so Scott came back, checked all of the outlets in that chain (which the home warranty electrician never did), and found that the real source of the problem was one of the other outlets. He fixed the problem, and did NOT charge us anything for this second visit, even though we had told him that the home warranty electrician had indicated that the broken outlet was the problem. Since then we hired him again to install some new electrical lines and switches for our new landscaping. He is always prompt, efficient, timely, neat, and professional, providing written estimates and always delivering as promised. If you need any electrical work done at your house or business, Scott is definitely the one to use! read more
