I had an urgent situation when my pond motor suddenly stopped working. I tried troubleshooting it myself by resetting the breaker and GFI, but unfortunately, I couldn't get it going. I reached out to Ryan pretty late at night after 10 p.m. and was impressed by how quickly he responded. He explained his pricing and services upfront, was very clear and communicative, and was able to come out first thing the next morning. He showed up right on time and got straight to work. Ryan quickly figured out that the problem was a broken timer that had actually melted. Luckily, he had a replacement with him and was able to swap it out right away. He also took the time to check everything else and even patched up an area where rats had been chewing on one of my wires. I really appreciated his honesty, responsiveness, and quality of work. It's hard to find someone who communicates this well and follows through. I would definitely use Ryan again and highly recommend him! read more

Our garage suddenly lost power, and since our usual handyman wasn't available, I turned to Yelp to find an electrician. I planned on calling a few places for quotes, but Ryan was one of the only businesses open at the time. I guess the saying is true- "Early bird gets the worm!" Based on his outstanding Yelp reviews, I decided to take a leap of faith instead of waiting for other businesses to open, and I'm so glad I did. Ryan was incredibly responsive, communicated clearly about his rates and any potential additional charges, and even squeezed us in between jobs to help us as soon as possible. When he arrived, he identified the problem almost immediately. It turned out to be a simple fix. He was honest about it and didn't overcharge us. That level of integrity is hard to find these days, and we truly appreciated it. Needless to say, we've found our new go-to electrician for any future electrical needs. Part of me wants to gatekeep him, but I'd much rather see a genuinely good, honest person thrive! Ryan has definitely earned our trust and highest recommendation! read more

Highly recommend Ryan! We initially reached out to have a dining room light fixture installed. Ryan did an amazing job making sure everything was secure and perfectly finished. We were so impressed with his work that we asked him to come back to installation new bathroom light fixtures, replaced bathroom exhaust fan, and several new interior and exterior outlets as well. His attention to detail, fair pricing, and quality craftsmanship truly stood out. We've hired other electricians in the past, but Ryan stands out as the best we've worked with. From the first message to the final install, he was professional, responsive, on time, and incredibly the easiest to work with. If you're looking for a reliable, skilled licensed electrician in Orange County, I highly recommend Ryan. We'll definitely be calling him again for future electrical work. read more

I highly recommend Shaka Electric. I found myself suddenly stuck with no a/c or hot water during a summer heatwave. I sent out multiple messages to electricians after hours and Ryan was the first one to respond. He came out first thing the next morning and diagnosed the issue. Good, honest, and experienced. read more

Ryan from Shaka Electric did an entire electrical rewire on my home built in 1912. I had many electricians come to quote what I thought/hoped would be a simple removal of old knob and tube wiring. Most gave me insane quotes or just plain told me they couldn't or wouldn't work on wiring that old. Then Ryan showed up with his signature smile. Not only was he actually willing to work on my home, he was excited about it. He was thorough in explaining what needed to be done, what permits needed to be pulled, what the timelines would be and he was flexible with our schedule as well (we were in the process of closing on the house and getting the keys). He really did treat our house as if it was his own as he was working with us to design the lighting and outlets in our home. He has a wealth of experience with renovations/remodeling and his guidance and suggestions really made the lighting in our home much better than I expected. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The work is clean, every inspection with the city was passed on the first pass, and he did all the coordination with SCE (which was a huge relief to me). Ryan made what could have been a really stressful project feel manageable from start to finish. He's earned a customer for life, Ryan will definitely be our go-to electrician for future projects. read more

We had an emergency where our garage opener/outlets went out and wasn't able to be open. We found Ryan through Yelp, and he was able to come the next morning. Super responsive before we met and even gave us a fair estimate for the typical cost of the work. When he arrived, he opened our circuit breaker and helped us discover one of our wires was completely burnt and (almost) detached from the circuit breaker - which could have resulted in a fire!! He helped us fix the issue and solve our problem, all while walking us through his knowledge. Super helpful, patient, and extremely knowledgable. DEFINITELY we will call him back if needing any electrical work. Highly recommend him for his knowledge, professionalism, AND fair price. read more

I needed replacement of 2 timers, 1 receptacle and 3 occupancy switches. Ryan arrived for the job on time. Mind you the appointment was at 6:30 a.m.! He started to put on sanitary booties before entering my home. I told him it wasn't necessary for our situation--but for those of you with white carpets, take note! He installed everything within his quoted budget, even with the three occupancy switches added at the last minute. The switches had arrived late the previous night, so I didn't know I would have them in time for this job. Ryan handled that with a smile and great attitude, as the work could be done in the time he had allotted for my appointment. We had a small snafu with one of the switches not operating as expected. Ryan returned promptly to fix the problem within 24 hours. Ryan gives expert, high quality service. I would not hesitate to request additional services from him in the future. read more

I came to Yelp looking for a low-profile electrician to help diagnose an electrical issue in my home after my master bedroom completely lost power for about two weeks. Before reaching out to Ryan, I had contacted another electrical company that wanted $250 just for a diagnostic visit. Ryan offered a much more fair and straightforward price, whether it turned out to be a simple fix or something more complicated. He was professional, easy to work with, and quickly resolved the issue. The repair ended up being a straightforward fix, and it was absolutely worth every penny. I really appreciated the honesty and efficiency. If you're looking for a reliable electrician who charges fair prices, I highly recommend working with Ryan. Thanks again! read more

Ryan with Shaka Electric installed recessed lighting for us and did an amazing job.
