Keith Walter was personable. He listened and explained the upgrade to my electric panel in my 50year old house. He upgraded an outdoor outlet and a ceiling light as well. Very professional and easy to work with. read more

I strongly recommend Walter Electric. After getting 4 bids to replace the original electric panel on my 1968 home, the only one I even considered was Keith Walter. He was the only one who right away understood that it would be a complicated job, and he was right about that. He took charge of everything, starting with the City of San Diego and SDGE. This required numerous phone calls from him to City and SDGE representatives over two months. He has incredible relationships with people in both agencies, which is super-helpful. He spent a lot of time figuring out ahead of time how to make the panel install work given the complications. He asked me for a lot of photos and measurements after he himself had been here for several hours working out the steps of the process ahead of time. I really appreciated his attention to detail, his mastery of the process, his creativity, and professionalism. On the day of the job, everything went more smoothly than I could ever have hoped. His employee, Alan, is superb. The City inspector and the SDGE teams were on point and happy to work with Keith and Alan to make sure the job was done by the end of the day. Keith Walter/Walter Electric is top notch. read more

Keith and his team at Walter Electric are incredible. We had them do a ton of work on our house: new lighting in closets, LED lighting in two rooms, install new track lighting and ceiling fans, move switches and outlets around, and install hard wired lights in the bathroom and the front of the house. All of the work was done with precision craftsmanship and they left our house cleaned up nicely each day. Keith provided great guidance and recommendations along the way and was responsive to answer our questions. Would highly recommend Walter Electric! read more

Keith Walter had done some work for us previously so we retained him to do a panel upgrade so we could put in a new AC system. When we decided to install solar, the contractor was concerned that we might need an additional panel upgrade to handle the load but the City was satisfied that Keith's work was sufficient and that saved us a lot of money. He is knowledgeable and responsive and the work was done promptly. You can have confidence in Keith. read more

This review is for Keith coming out and going through our recently purchased home. He was very through and asked a lot of great questions that I didn't even consider before. Our house was built in the 1950s and has old wiring, dated lighting and an extra hurdle of exposed beams without much attic space. I didn't use Keith's services this time around because we cut down our project list in order to move in and get a feel for the house and what we really want long term but I recommend him for his professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail, and follow up! read more

I pretty much live upstairs in my bedroom, so I have all the gadgets I need to make my life easier, but I didn't have the juice to power the stuff and I was always tripping my circuit panel . ...Now I don't have to worry about it!!! They installed a new auxiliary panel and ran new lines for at least 10 outlets. They ran lines for a new floodlight W/ Camera for the upper deck outside my bedroom door, they also installed a wall switch and an outdoor power outlet! They installed a new ceiling fan for my bedroom. I also had a pot light installed in my shower, now I can shave without fear of cutting my ear off!! Keith and his crew, ...Allen and Julio make a great team! Keith (the owner) sourced a whole house fan for me, then Julio and Allen installed it! We're now ready for the hot summer days to come. Julio and Allen showed up on time everyday, They covered everything in plastic as they went, then cleaned up before they left each day. No Mistakes! No wasted moves! They did things I thought were not possible! I highly recommend this company for just about any electrical need you can come up with. read more

This review is a little late, but subsequent dealings with other contractors reminded me of how great Keith and his team were, and that I owed it to them to commend them on their above and beyond service they provided my family and me. Earlier this spring, my wife and I were fortunate enough to have been able to buy a house in San Diego. A major reason we could afford it is that it needed A LOT of love - to include a complete update of all the electrical work throughout the house. I was truly blessed when Keith responded to our solicitation on home advisor. Keith showed up with an enormous sense of empathy for the task we were undertaking. Not only did he design and install top of the line electrical amenities in our home, but he was kind enough to recommend GREAT contractors to help us with other projects. While Keith and his guys were technically only responsible for the electrical work, they took a genuine interest in our overall project; to describe keith's role as our general contractor would not be a stretch. I worked along side his crew for nearly three weeks and developed a special bond that I was blessed to experience. To say Walter Electric provides great customer service is an understatement for my experience. I cannot recommend this company enough, and would like to publicly thank Keith, Alan, and Kevin for their hard work and exemplary customer service. My very best to you all. read more

I had a problem restoring power to 3 rooms after the main breaker tripped during some remodeling. Keith came out that afternoon to troubleshoot and immediately found a dirty breaker which wasn't switching properly. He fixed the problem (at no charge). I asked about a few other electrical issues with GFCI outlets and he quoted a very reasonable price to run new dedicated lines for the refrigerators and install GFCIs in the bathrooms. He is very good at communicating the nature of the problems and detailing the solutions. They came the next day and completed all of the work by the end of the day. I highly recommend his services. read more

I LOVED the work that Keith and his team did for me. It was so easy from start to finish. The entire team was professional, respectful, and communicative. They absolutely went above and beyond. I have an OLD house and the entire wiring needed to be redone. This seemed daunting and Keith not only walked through the whole process but even had amazing ideas for improving my current lighting situation. We replaced all the fans and lighting fixtures, added canned lights, provided updated switches that dim, added motion detectors for outside lighting, added a plug wherever I wanted and added a new heater/fan for the bathroom. Keith also outlined everything they were doing, the labor costs, and the cost of the materials so everything was so clear and there were no surprises. I am so happy with the results and truly am so appreciative. My house looks so great now! read more

Keith was great. Great work, glad he's a perfectionist. Did the work the day after I arranged the electrical work. He was on time and kept in contact before the job. Nice person, too. I recommend him. read more

We recently had some work done on our house and Walter Electric (Keith) did a superb job. Our job was small which we could clearly tell from the reactions of some other electricians, but Keith took the time to really walk through our home and give advice and recommendations, even if they meant less money in his pocket at the end of the day -- restricting the scope of the project, recommending we find and purchase parts instead of him supplying them, even giving advice on which parts to buy and where to get them. In the end, we felt as if he was much more invested in us as customers and in our electrical needs than any of the other professionals we talked to, and his price was fair -- I don't recall if he was the most reasonably priced, but I believe he was. When the project actually started, it was done quickly and they did a fantastic job on everything they touched. They even went above and beyond and did some repainting which wasn't in our original agreement. I would not hesitate to recommend Walter Electric to anyone based on our experience, and when we have additional plans for lighting or electrical work, they will be the first on our list to call. read more

Keith was great to work with. He provided us with options, found an economical way to solve our problem and completed the work as promised. I would highly recommend working with him and I wouldn't hesitate to call him again. read more

We had our house rewired and lighting upgraded at the same time. The project took 2 weeks to complete and they worked with us on what schedule worked for us. I am very pleased with the quality of work and I would definitely recommend Walter Electric. Keith worked with us to make sure that we were happy with the work. This was not a small, or simple job and the entire team was a pleasure to work with. read more

It was a small job, but having the outlet for the oven not working was a big issue for me. Keith arrived within 2 hours and had it repaired quickly. I appreciated Keith taking the time to explain what had caused the problem and how he was repairing it. His rates were very reasonable and I highly recommend him. read more

I had a house built in 1959, which meant grounding the old outlets and putting in new ones. In addition, I needed to add recess lighting through the house. I went on Home Advisor website, which is a referral site, and put up a posting of what I wanted done. Keith contacted me the same day I put up the posting. Since I worked on the weekdays, Keith was able to accommodate my schedule by coming out on a Saturday morning to assess the scope of the project. He brought his assistant, Alan, with him to check the outlets and work with me on what I wanted done. After the initial meeting,Keith promptly replied with a bid for his work. However, I decided to go with someone who came in at a lower bid. But my first bid did not work out and I called Keith back and he was able squeeze me into his work schedule. I had a very tight timeline and he was able to accommodate me. When his crew arrived for the work, they laid out plastic sheets to protect my floors. In addition, they did a beautiful job patching up the wall where they had to cut into the wall to run the new wires. They were very careful not cutting up the whole house to run the new wires. When they were done, they knew I had to paint, so his crew laid down new plastic sheets to protect the floor before they left. I thought it was very thoughtful of them and showed they truly cared. Highly recommend them. The lights are great and the outlets works very well now. read more

I called on labor day weekend because half the house had lost electricity . They had given all there men the holiday off, so they couldn't help me until Tuesday and it's Saturday. BUT he recommended I call SDG&E because to him it sounded like a supply problem to the house. Called SDG&E, they came out and fixed the problem. Not often that you get good free advice in a pinch. I will be calling Walter electric for future electrical work! read more

Five Stars to Walter Electric for a recent project at our home! We worked with Keith, and we were so impressed with his responsiveness, efficiency and professionalism. We had received a bid from another electrician that was more than twice the amount Walter Electric charged us. The project turned out beautifully, and we really appreciated Keith's thoroughness and attention to detail. Sometimes we are hesitant about recommending services to our friends and family, but we will happily recommend Walter Electric to any and all. Great job!! read more
