    We had just purchased a home and were having electrical problems. What started as weekly turned into daily electrical breaker trips, even when no one was home or any appliances were on. We had contacted the previous owner/tenant and they had never had a breaker trip. I found Javier because he wrote "ELECTRICIAN (858) 880-6080" in permanent sharpie on our electrical panel. It turns out Javier was hired by the sellers realtor to replace breakers to put the house up to code before the house could be listed. So naturally, we called and he showed up and offered to help but shortly later didn't respond to calls or texts. At this point we are just trying to diagnose the problem and get an understanding of what was done prior to listing the house. We had several electricians come through our homeowners insurance and ended up getting the panel fixed. Javier was polite but simply not helpful. Fast forward a year we are installing turf...we have an EV but are currently charging on 110V. Seems like a perfect time to run wire from the panel to the garage and install a 220 outlet and sub panel. Where to start? I open the main panel and Javiers number pops up, so we give him a call and he promptly shows up. I explain what we are trying to do and he gives us a quote. $800 for the labor + whatever the parts are. He says he can be there the following Tuesday at 10AM. So we coordinated with the landscapers to arrive at that time. Tuesday comes and he doesn't show, call, text or respond at all. We can't hold up the landscape crew so we trench and lay the pipes. Eventually several days later Javier responds and says he can come the following week and the pipe being laid is not a problem as he can feed the wire through the pipe. Again, no show, call or text until 2 weeks pass and a late evening text he says he can complete the work the following morning but not for $800+ parts he originally quoted, but this time $2,000 + parts. In 3 weeks the price more than doubled. I had asked why the price changed so much and he said after further review this was the new price. OK, so at this point I don't care anymore, I just want the work done and I agree to his new price and he doesn't show up. By now, it's been several weeks without any responds to calls or texts. I gave up on him, but I then see him a few houses away in person doing work, say hello and kindly ask him if he is still able to complete the project and if not, it's okay but to just let me know. He says yes, and agrees to come by the following week. I follow up with several more calls and texts, not a response. In summary, I liked Javier, he was always polite face to face but did no work for us and ended up being a total waste of time. The only work he did was done prior to us purchasing the house. The combination of numerous calls and texts without responding, several no shows and the continuing to be led on for months prompted this review. Buddy, I respect the "hustle" by trying to get your name out there but if you deface someone's property for your benefit, you better help when they call you, especially with issues that your work likely created.

    As a first time home owner, my husband and I didn't know where to start with all the electrical projects we had identified. Javier was so reliable, professional, and efficient with his time with a wide range of projects - hanging ceiling fans, installing lights, hanging string lights in the backyard, moving outlets, mounting TVs...he did it all and he did it confidently. He even helped us out with random home projects when we are questions or concerns with items that weren't necessarily electrical. His prices are fair and he is an excellent electrician. We HIGHLY recommend going with US electrical/Javier.

    US Electric Contracting has very reasonable prices. I first hired them to install a light fixture and look at my stove since it wasn't working properly. Javier was on time, very professional and got the job done. I hired him again to install ceiling fans in both my kids room. They look fantastic.

    Called Javier on a Monday afternoon explaining Electrical problem on my parents Circuit breaker in East Co and he immediately responded asking if Wednesday worked for us. He showed up on time and immediately took care of the problem. We found him extremely nice, personable and very honest as the Circuit breaker only required a minor repair. He said it was old, but did not recommend spending the $$ on a new breaker. This is the 3rd time I have used Javier, Ecobee Thermostat install, large ceiling fan I purchased at Costco, and recently for the circuit breaker issue. We had the same great experience every time and referred him to our neighbor who hired him for all the Recessed lighting in their new home here in Coronado.

    I'm so happy to review Tom! You will never have to look any…read morefurther for a more qualified, professional, trustworthy, well spoken electrician and all around great guy. Tom is all those things and more. I had a problem with a backyard remodel that included installing underground gas lines extending about 80 feet and connected to very expensive outdoor heaters. My contractors workers could not figure out how to properly connect the heaters and would never read the manuals when I suggested that. Ultimately the heaters were connected incorrectly and didn't work. They no longer knew how to troubleshoot the problem and pretty much made it my problem from there. The few electricians I did contact said up front they did not want to take on the task or they kept saying that they needed to come out to "take a look" if it was something they could resolve. Two did come to assess the problem. Decided they didn't know how to fix the problem but of course charged me to "take a look". From then on I made sure to ask other electricians if they had experience with gas lines and gas heaters. They never wanted to answer that question and insisted on coming out. That was very frustrating for me because when I pushed the question they admitted they did not have the experience. From the initial inquiry Tom responded within minutes. He answered at least a dozen questions in detail and never pushed to make an appointment. I asked him for an appointment. He showed up on time. He could immediately smell gas leaks where I could not. In a few minutes he found several problems. Made sure to show me each problem and explain how they affect the heaters from working properly. He fixed everything in a little more then two hours and finally the heaters worked beautifully. I also had him install a motion light. He is coming back next week to install 4 indoor fans, more motion lighting outside and two attic fans. Tom turned a stressful and frustrating problem around for me. I'm so grateful to him!

    Wow! Thomas, the owner, is a stand up guy and a true knight in shining armor! I will recommend him…read moreto everyone I know. From one interaction with him I know he is a person you can trust in business. I was stuck sitting in my car at a gas station, trying to figure out which card to use for gas, as I am at the end of my rope with funds since starting my own business. He tapped on my window and asked if I could move my car up since he has a full size truck pulling a full size trailer on it (I hadn't realized he pry had been waiting on me for a while). I told him that the pump ahead was not working and I apologized for the delay and explained my money situation and trying to find the best card to pull my gas money from. I told him I would move my car though. When I pulled next to another pump I resumed my search on my accounts as to where I could get some gas money when I heard a clunk and a click. I looked up to discover Tom was pumping gas into my car!!! I was shocked and felt honestly it was an answer to my prayers!!! I burst into tears and thanked him from the bottom of my heart. He said he understood where I was and wanted to help. WOW! JUST COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY BY THE AWE-INSPIRING GENEROUS CHARACTER IF THIS MAN. I will recommend him to everyone I know. What a blessing!!!
