We are having similarly bad experiences with Shield Electric - Particularly with Amador. Our house almost caught on fire due to old wiring. We hired Amador because he had done some minor work for us before (ceiling fans and such). Please do not hire this company. They will insist on receiving 50% down (illegal) and then walk away. We are pursuing legal action. read more

Abandoned the job after he requested 60% upfront to get the job started. Tons of excuses of whey job wasn't being done, he sent 2 guys out, sometimes they just sat outside the house not doing anything. Amador said they guys did a lot more work than we agreed on, only 25% of the contract was done and it wasn't done correctly because we are still having issues with the work that was done. He disappeared and stopped answering via phone and text. BEWARE!!!! May be okay for small jobs but drops big jobs and takes the money. read more

Well we used them for our house renovation project and they almost got the job completely done. Once I paid for everything (we even paid for items I changed my mind on) then realized they didn't hook up our stove top igniter they became MIA. However Vince did a great job on this project but the owner isn't that organized. If they didn't have Vince I would of never got this project done due to his low staff. If you use this company I would recommend a professional documentation in writing with a timeline. We appreciated their work they did it looks great. However I would appreciate a call back to let me know when they could finish the last piece to the job we paid for. read more

We are so impressed with this company. We had quotes a few years ago to put ceiling lighting in an office and a master suite retreat area. The costs were so high we used floor lamps instead, but we really needed ceiling lighting.After talking with Amador, he said he could do the jobs easily and for half the price we were quoted before! Both jobs were done in less than a day. Vince was dead on time showing up. He was polite, professional, kind and a hard worker. He cleaned up after himself. They did awesome work - we are very, very happy. I wish we had met them sooner. Plus they put a dedicated outside GFI box to make it easy to put up Christmas outdoor lighting! We didn't know it could be done without a lot of extra work and huge expense! I'm just so happy with this honest company. read more

Bad Business. Contacted them the night before about a short circuit issue. They promised to be at the premises at 930am. By 9:03am, owner texted me demanding for $120 right at the door before service was done. Advised him that the MOD will be able to pay him at 1030am while the technician working on the problem. He replied " no, it's ok, we'll pass." I have never dealt with any company that is so unprofessional. Bad business. What a shame. I was going to be your first time customer. Shame! I advised that you someone will be there at 930am to open the doors. You wanted to be paid, fine! And I told you that the MOD will arrived at 1030am to pay you while the technician is working on the issues. I suggest you go back and review your text messages. Because that is not how you should do business. read more

Amador was quick to respond and came over the next day to give me a fair quote. He also worked with me to get an appointment as soon as possible. Vince came by early and finished without making any mess. Very polite and knowledgeable about his trade. Excellent service overall! read more

If you are wondering whether or not to call, stop your wondering now. When I called Amador, I was frustrated and confused to say the least with my dealings with a couple of other electricians. He listened to the problem(s) with a patient ear and was able to come out the next day. When he came he looked at our issue and was able to offer a solution right away. He took the time to show me the issue and why it was happening, as well as explain how it all worked. So cool. He showed integrity and empathy, which is a rare gem! We will not hesitate to use him and his guys in the future. read more

Great service. I needed a wall outlet added and a cutin box to run cables done asap. I called on a Friday was was able to get an appointment for Monday morning. The price was in line with other electricians but what stood out to me was that he had someone to not only patch the wall but texture it well. Will definitely recommend. read more

We just had this company come into our home and do a ton of work for us. From installing 11 canned lights, hanging pendants, to installing ceiling fans, these guys are amazing! The owner, Amador was easy to get a hold of and very accommodating with our schedule. Efren, one of the electricians, was absolutely wonderful to work with! His attention to detail and genuine care about how everything looked in our house (measurements, spacing, etc) made the whole process worth every penny. I would use this company again in a heartbeat AND I would recommend them to everyone I know! read more

This is the second time we've called Shield Electric to work on our house. We needed to expand the garage capabilities for a workshop, and we had no question as to who to call. Once again, they are very reasonably priced, easy to communicate with, diligent in cleaning up after their work is done, and their work comes with a warranty. Amador is nice, honest, and personable. He knows what he is doing, and I have complete trust and faith in him, and I will continue to use his services whenever we have an issue. I highly recommend him and Shield Electric Services. read more

What you're looking for in an electrician is someone who is accountable. We had Shield out to do some minor work on our back patio and when we had questions, they answered promptly and even came back to make an adjustment, free of charge. In a world of pretenders, Shield is the real-deal! read more

I experienced an electrical problem well after their posted hours, but messaged them for a quote on Yelp expecting to get a response the next day duing business hours. Instead, I received a response within 10 minutes at which point we scheduled an in home visit the following morning. Excellent response and communication! They evaluated my problem and made recommendations to rememdy. The crew was extremely prompt, professional, and knowledgeable!! I couldn't have been any happier with their communcation and professionalism. You absolutely can not go wrong with this company! All problems fixed very quickly. This is one where you should heed the reviews and just roll with them! read more

We needed help with lighting for our commercial building. Amador answered the phone promptly when we called and was able to do all repairs in a timely manner. We will definitely call Shield Electric again should the need arise. read more

Needed a lot of electrical work at home for my family. Shield Electric's Amador did more than just return my message, he came by same day, got an understanding on what I wanted. To save me money, he provided some suggestions to give me what I still wanted. I was in contact with other businesses, but he was the only one that wanted to come by. I was quoted online from other businesses, Amador's price was hard to say no. He was transparent in what I am paying for. Also took care of me due to being Military. It's not easy shopping around for the great price and still want quality work. Couple days later, Shield Electric's Efrain was at my door ready to start. He was quiet and busy. Always showed up on time, didn't see him take lunch for each full work day nor take any breaks, he even asked to stay late if needed. When something didn't make sense, he spoke with me as well as his company. His quality of work was very good and I trusted him around my house. Some last min changes was requested by me and when we came to a situation where I changed my mind, Amador was great about it, Efrain was on it. Overall, I am satisfied with the quality of work I received. My garage is now bright with extra outlets, living room no longer has the ugly ceiling fan which now has recessed LED lights that are dimmable. My loft has an outlet for hanging a TV with lighting. My Master bedroom now has an outlet for hanging a TV and my weird light switch for the closet is in the closet where it belongs. I am very pleased with all the work I ordered for a really really great price! Thanks Shield Electric. If I am unable to handle my own handiwork, I will call again. If any of my buddies need some work done, I'll also refer them to you. read more

Excellent service! They returned my call quickly and came out the next day!! Vincent did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and cleaned up everything when he was finished. I would definitely use them again. read more

Shield Electrical Services is a top notch company! I reached out to the company to have a flood light installed. Amador responded right away to set up a free in home estimate. Vince showed up on time and was extremely professional and informative about the work that needed to be completed. Amador responded within a couple of hours with an affordable quote and said he could send Vince back after lunch to complete the work. Vince showed up and did an outstanding job with the install. I couldn't be happier. We just moved to the area and I will definitely be calling Shield Electrical Services for all my electrical work! read more

I needed an electrician on a Sunday night to change out 4 light fixtures on very short notice. Amador responded in a few minutes to my call and agreed to make himself available. His pricing was fair and reasonable and he arrived on-time with a positive attitude. The work was completed within an hour and everything cleaned up nicely. I would highly recommend Shield Electric Services and Amador! read more

I can't say enough good things about this company. The owner has integrity and his employees are very professional. They always respond quickly and the prices are so affordable. I've worked with them on four projects, two of which another electrician had messed up. The latest project was installing two foyer lights on a 20 foot ceiling, they were able to come and install on the same day. I would highly highly recommend this company. read more

I've never written a negative review as ratings can be so subjective, but since we chose Shield Electric for our new home construction based on high YELP ratings in early 2019, I feel it's only fair to future customers that we share our negative experience. My wife and I hired Shield Electric and Amador Guerrero as our electrician, and later HVAC contractor, on our new construction home in the spring of 2019. Shield started the job strong. We were impressed with Amador's detailed quote, innovative ideas, and add-ons he'd "throw in for free." He also expressed his flexibility if we decided to change or add things during walkthroughs that he wanted to schedule with us. The quote was higher than the other two we received, (by about 14% and 20%) but we thought we'd get what we'd pay for. Unfortunately we got nowhere near what we paid for. The job is still not completed 8 months after Amador's first assured deadline and advanced payments (per his request) to provide the materials and get the job finished. Paying the advances in good faith was obviously a mistake on my part, but I never imagined that Amador's work ethic, attention to detail, and customer service would go downhill so quickly once he was paid that money. Amador's once prompt communication turned into radio silence. Deadlines were missed and there were no-shows on scheduled work days with no explanation or even a heads up unless I reached out first. I felt like I was pulling teeth anytime I'd call or email to check on the status of a given project, see when I'd be put on his schedule, or question why no one showed up for the entire week leading up to the date he told me he'd complete the job back in December 2019. Work we discussed in our walkthroughs wasn't completed (I wish we got those changes in writing). Work on our home was clearly on his back burner as any new service call took priority over our job (hence no-shows on our scheduled work days). We know this from what a member of his own crew shared with us. I am a reasonable person, which may be why I kept giving Amador the benefit of the doubt long after others said I should find someone else to finish. I understand that unexpected things come up often with this type of work and in personal lives, but I do not understand any reasoning for dishonesty, false assurances, not communicating when no one would show on scheduled work days, missed deadlines for no other reason than he didn't have the materials to provide his crew, or throwing crew members under the bus when something went wrong. Every other contractor we hired for our new home finished on time or early, anticipating a January 2020 deadline. Amador single handedly delayed our move-in date by almost 5 months. I expect Amador will have a belittling rebuttal or excuse in response to this post, as we've come to expect. I've asked Amador repeatedly to fulfill his end of the contract, or refund me what I paid in advance with money or materials. It's been since April that I've heard from him. Clearly he's still working based on recent Yelp reviews. Other crews have since worked to fulfill Shield Electric's end of the contract (not only finishing work, but fixing faulty and unsafe work done by Shield) and I am still seeking financial compensation from Amador for what I'm owed. Since he hasn't replied to my emails or texts since April, perhaps he'll respond to this review, or the complaint with the California State Licensing Board that I've filed. read more

Do not fall for Amador's fabricated reply to my prior review. Amador asked for 50% upfront, which is against the state regulations. He then did less than 25% of the work and disappeared in the middle of one key task, (leaving me without lights, that used to work) without any explanation! So he still owes me for 1/2 of the deposit. He used an excuse of his wife's family having a serious emergency as to why he suddenly couldn't show up one day, and said he would get back to me later that same night with more information. I was very worried for him at first, and I patiently waited for him to get back to me. But after days of silence and then days more that he never responded to any of my texts or emails, I started to think maybe he was dead or fled the country. After 30 days of silence, ***and only after I gave him a bad review here***, did he finally speak up and respond to me, but that was only to blame his failure to complete his contracted work, on me and my house! Everything in his reply is fabricated - he has nothing backing up anything he said. But I do. And who could possibly think that quitting an unfinished job (without even telling me that he wasn't able to do the work) with hundreds of dollars he owed me in work (or a refund), with no word for 30 days, was professional behavior? I now know it was a scam, and that explains why he asked me for too much money upfront, and I foolishly trusted him. I have written proof of every single thing I am saying here. [Amador, if you want to start posting pictures, go ahead; I will be happy, in turn, to post our contract terms and all of your texts and let the public judge you by your own words]. Never in my long life have I had such a bad contractor experience like this. And I have already submitted full documentation to the California contractor licensing bureau, the BBB, and next will be the police consumer fraud division. He may have been good once, but he lost his company and crew and now is just a flaky one man show. And his address is a just PO box in Temecula. He has no crew and no office. Do not trust him unless you want to risk getting burned - or at least, make sure you don't give him more that the 10%, or $1,000, whichever is less, upfront, per the regulations! read more

Found this business on a Google search. They did such an excellent job for my grandmother's house. She needed some outdoor lighting fixed that was done by another electrician. Shield's team was fast and precise with their work. Highly recommend them! And will be sharing their card with the neighborhood. read more

On Monday night my lights started to flicker and I had several burned outlets that literally had burn marks on them! The next night 90% of my upstairs was without power. No matter how many times i reset the panel my upstairs was determined to stay in the dark. I called Amador from Shield Electrical Solutions on Wednesday at 6:54 pm and within 3 minutes I had an appointment for today (friday) at 7am. Firstly, that is amazing! I called six other electricians who were either booked until the end of august or didn't return my call because they were too busy. To me it really made a difference because he was able to stop by and at least review the situation to let me know whether or not it was a dangerous situation or something that could wait. He let me know that he could squeeze me in today, which i was so grateful for. He showed up early at 6:52 am, walked through and listened to me tell him my problems. He realized quickly that my problem was bigger than it appeared and with a little schedule jiggling, his team was able to do fix it all today. Vince and another gentleman came to change out our outlets and told me that 14 outlets were on one circuit breaker, which is why we lost power to our upstairs. This made complete sense because there were times i would blow dry my hair and the upstairs would go dark. They were also no pressure, they swapped out the burned outlets and let me know that Denise would call me to collect payment. (I am so used to paying with my card!) They also split up the electrical outlets (They even gave me a discount which was really wonderful because my HOA wouldn't allow for external conduit wiring!) So I wanted to say thank you guys for 1. Answering the phone 2. Giving me my upstairs electricity back! 3. For being very 'no pressure' and explaining everything to me! Thanks, Annie & Cory read more

I have used Shield for all my electrical work (4) times already and will continue to call them. Fair prices exceeded all expectations and timely. Respectful, honest and reasonable priced. read more

Highly Recommend!! Vince showed up at exactly 7am, just like he said he would. He was extremely polite, informative, & knowledgeable. He worked super fast & quickly cleaned up after himself! He even had a whole discussion with me on how, why, & where to place our outlet in our garage for our electric car charging station, instead of just assuming on where we wanted it placed. I was SO impressed with him. He was so friendly and a true expert in his field. I can't say enough good things about Vince. He is AWESOME! Thank you for your help Vince! Our car is charging perfectly :) read more

Punctual, courteous, diligent and honest, this is how I would define Armador. His thoroughness and explanation of the issues I was having was spot on. The situation in our future home was a bit skewed, so I hired Shield Electric to verify and inspected the electrical systems in my future home. Once the work is finished I will add that last star. read more

I called Shield Electric, I own a home in Old Town Temecula, Ca. I had a problem with my outlet no longer working. The Furnace and Air Conditioner unit shut off. Company that installed it said it was not their fault, that my outlet needed a dedicated outlet just for that, ( did not inform me when they installed the new units). Amador said he would be out the next day to check it out. I was very happy with the price he quoted ( He gave me a great deal). We set a date and Amador came out to do the job himself. I was very pleased with the job he did. He also fixed a big hazard that I had with a 220volt outlet I was not aware of ( at no extra charge I might add). I would HIGHLY recommend this Company to anyone needing Electrical Service. I would definitely use them again for futures services. read more

We had Sheild Electric come out to "install" an outlet for our forklift battery. Not only was the job done incorrectly, but it could have completely blown a transformer due to their negligence! We tried to give them a chance by having them come out and fix the problem, they failed to do so. After speaking with the owner Amador and informing him we had to have another company come and fix their problem because he was ignoring our calls, he gave me an attitude when we requested a partial refund. After agreeing to the refund, he has now ignored all phone calls and emails since. The only reason they received 1 star is that they do not have a negative rating as an option, please do not choose this company. read more

Affordable. Great communication. Professional, expeditious service. Would highly recommend and use again!!

Thank you Shield Electric for doing an amazing job at my house. Shield Electric did many projects for my home. They installed 6 fans, ran my video cable and did some custom work in my living room and bedroom. I am very happy with the work they did. They were all very nice and worked super clean. The custom work they did was amazing. You can't even tell at all where they ran the cables. If you are looking for a clean, reliable company with great customer service. Shield Electric is the way to go. read more
