Chris has helped me a number of times over the years and is fantastic! I have referred him out to my family and friend and will continue to!

Chris has done so much work in our house, I finally decided to get on here to give him a review. He was actually referred to me by a friend as "the best electrician" a few years ago and I've been using him ever since. He has installed chandeliers, ceiling fans, and recessed lighting. He works fast and does great work. I trust him to fix, replace or install anything in my house. As a bonus he's incredibly personable. I recommend Chris to anyone. He'll be my go-to for all of my electrical needs for as long as he's in the business. read more

I am very happy with my experience with West Coast Electric. Needed to find an electrician to help me quickly for a small job - found out during a dishwasher installation that the existing machine had been illegally rigged and I needed to get the electrical fixed before I could have the new one installed. Found WC Electric based on NextDoor recs. Chris got back to me right away and got me on his schedule. Work was done efficiently and he was very nice and easy to work with. I am happy that I have found a "go to" electrician for anything that pops up in the future. read more

Chris and his employee John knocked out numerous electrical projects for us in 2.5 days! They were on time, efficient, clean work/cleaned up after each project, competent/skilled electricians and with competitive pricing. We had our a panel upgraded/serviced. He put in a new outdoor outlet and rewire 2 indoor outlets that were on overloaded circuits on to separate circuits, run wiring and install of EV car charger clear on other side of house(having to climb in our tiny attic) and installing 4 can lights in our living room and swap out a couple light switches for us that I had already purchased and had not gotten around to installing. Oh and he helped my husband get his outdoor TV mounted! We are happy customers and Overall We would highly recommend Chris/west coast electric solutions and his team!! read more

I set up an appointment with Chris to install a few new ceiling lights and a ceiling fan, and would highly recommend him to anyone. He and John were completely professional, did a beautiful job, and were so pleasant on top of everything. Couldn't ask for anything more. read more

I wish there were 10 stars I could give for the professional service I have received from West Coast Electric. Chris not only came to do a requested job but offered to fine tune a few things that he saw around my house that I had not considered. He gave me great suggestions about lighting that turned out wonderfully. He has always been right in time, is efficient and fastidious in his work. His fee is more than reasonable. He also has the brightest, happiest personality of anyone who has ever worked on my house and he and his wonderful apprentice John were a bright spot in the days they have worked here. How often can you say that about people who come to work in your house? read more

Chris Bailey was very nice and knowledgeable when he came out to give us an estimate. However, things did not end well with work that principally involved the install of an ET2 Pendant light over the kitchen table. Chris called several days beforehand and said his back was acting up so on the install day he may not be available but his assistants would handle it. He was ultimately able to stop by briefly during the day. On the day of the install his two crew members showed up on time and began work. The junior member inexplicably was the one doing the most important work: hanging the expensive and fragile pendent light. I saw him unpacking the light and when I returned to the kitchen later it was up and installed with the power cable straight and tight. The instructions, which I left on the kitchen table, depicted the cable as corkscrewing around the support lines. So when I asked him to loosen the cable to conform to the diagram (and the way it is featured in all of the photos and depictions) he eventually fessed up that he had cut the cable (because of some ridiculous excuse he came up with) and we didn't have enough length to loosen it to achieve the look I wanted. Since it didn't look any good the way he had the cable draped, I told him to tighten it back up again like he had it originally. I later looked at the discarded parts in the trash bin and found he had cut 8' of insulation from the cable's length and there were multiple abraded sections. I called ET2 and they said there was no way to replace the cable and they did not recommend or support such a course of action. It would invalidate the warranty. I related this to Chris later that day and he said he'd find out about replacing the cable (he could rewire a similar replacement cable himself if need be) as well as talk to his team. He came out a few days later but had no replacement cable or solutions other than pulling it out to the maximum length available and said that his team thought it was my fault this had happened because they claimed I had actually told them to cut it short. Chris additionally suggested I really should have been monitoring them more closely. So he believed his team who were clearly motivated to cover their bungled install over me, the client. I hired them after all to install the light correctly, which means not cutting the power cable or limiting my options for how I want to run the power cable now or in the future. Considering that I paid them $120 per hour, I would expect things to be handled professionally and with absolutely no on-the-job-training. I could go on about aspects of other work that was done that day but this is the main issue that prompts this review. I do not recommend and would not use them again. read more

Chris Bailey did all of the electical work on my home, from the wiring, to the installing all of our indoor chandeliers and all of our outdoor lighting, including our landscape lighting. Chris is the only electrician I call when I need service, regardless of how small or large the job is. Chris is honest, trust worthy, fairly priced, extremely professional, detail oriented and he cleans up after himself! I highly recommend Chris Bailey for any and all of your electrical needs. read more

Chris has been my go to electrician for years. Found him initially in La Jolla Blue Book and then he has treated me so well forever. He's set up three houses and counting for us, everything from re-wiring to installing new fans. Can't beat the service and pricing. read more

They did a main service panel upgrade, taking out and old 100A and replacing it with a new Square D 200A. Even with a few curve balls, they finished up in half a day. Workmanship and attitude are all first class! read more

We have used Chris and the team many times now for different projects. They are really the best! All of the guys are great and knowledgeable.

When we had an electrical problem our manager sent over Chris Bailey, the owner of West Coast Electric Solutions. He arrived on time, knew what the problem was and ably took care of matters. We highly recommend. read more

I called Chris to check out my kitchen circuit since I had heard that he had experience fixing electrical problems in several units in my condo complex. Chris never came out, but he sent 2 other guys instead who changed out a circuit breaker to repair the problem. I was surprised that the bill was $168.35 which included a $150 charge for the visit. When I asked Chris about this he said that $150 is the MINIMUM charge that he charges for any service call. The guys were in my place for less than 10 minutes and replaced a circuit breaker that was $16.99 so I feel like the $150 was a bit excessive. If you call him, be forewarned that you will be charged $150 just for the visit. read more

Chris and his apprentice John are an absolute pleasure to work with and do great work. They recently updated recessed lighting in my kitchen and family room, mounted a flat screen TV and installed new exterior lighting. Chris is easy to communicate with, responsive and cleans up after the job. I will definitely use West Coast again! read more

Do your research before hire them!!! For changing 2 outlet, 2 douplex outlet, 1 cover and 3 s-g plates, the bill was $371. 84. Of course for such a demanding work he brought a helper. They were recommended by a Remax Realtor. It was our mistake read more

Just had this company in our home to do 2 separate projects in the past few weeks. Great crew; excellent clean up; work done to exact expectations; no wasted time; prompt action. Most importantly for us is that they were respectful towards us and our home. We've been looking for quality and reliable electricians for awhile--looks like we found them.... read more

Chris came out to resolve a electric issue created by a unlicensed guy on a job site I was working on. The previous guy had made serious mistakes in the wiring and Chris was quickly able to resolve the issue and get my client back on track. Not only was the job done right, quickly and affordable but knowing the work is SAFE is the most important thing. Thanks to Chris and his professional staff !!! read more

We have used West Coast Electric to hang 4 ceiling fans, 5 sconces, a chandelier, and 4 lighting fixtures. If ever there was a problem or question about something, they promptly took care of us. The team is super friendly, knowledgeable and they will work with you until the job is complete. They don't ignore you just because they already have your cash in their pockets. They stay on task until the very end. Highly recommend them! read more

Chris Bailey and his team were excellent. As a new home owner I had a lot of questions and was very fearful of getting ripped off. Chris and his team answered all my questions solved all the issues I needed fixed or troubleshot in my home in an affordable and quick fashion....They were always on time and professional. I highly recommend Chris and his team and its comforting to know that as I new home owner I now have an electrician I can trust for the life of the home. read more

I had Chris Bailey of West Coast Electric Solutions do a whole house re-wire, new lighting throughout, and a panel upgrade on a recent remodel project. Not only did Chris and his team do an exceptional job, they were prompt, professional, courteous, and above all, the pricing was more than fair. West Coast Electric Solutions has completed numerous remodel projects for me and I would highly recommend them. His hourly rate is more than fair and comparable to other electrical contractors at his level. Remember that when you hire a contractor for a general service call you are paying for their travel time, their experience in tracking down the problem in a timely manner, their insurance cost, licensing costs, travel expense, truck, tools, etc. If you are charged the minimum amount for a service call ($150) then you should walk away knowing that it was money well spent. I have had other electrical contractors spend hours trying to find problems that Chris and his team found in minutes. On more than one occasion Chris and his team had the extra parts necessary to do the repair on their truck, thus avoiding the cost of traveling to the supply house. read more
