A Custom Electric

We installed a new piece of artwork that needed some custom lighting and Michael from A Custom Electric was recommended to us. We got everything installed on time and on budget. Thanks Michael!

I've used Michael and his crew for several jobs in two different homes over a span of five years. In my experience, he's prompt, responsive and does quality work. Will definitely continue to use him.

Here is an electric company that you can trust. They are professional, honest, and simply put, perfectionists. It also helps that they are very fair as far as their pricing. i would call them again for any electrical work that I may need, and recommend them 100%.

It was the first time I called and I really needed to get the lights in my bathroom fixed. They had shorted out a couple of days earlier and using the bathroom in the dark is no fun.
Michael came out in the rain at super short notice and fixed everything and then because there was still extra time and he charges a 1 hour minimum he fixed a couple more things for us too.
This guy is super nice, really professional, totally cool. I would recommend him to anyone.

Made two appointments and has either rescheduled or not shown up. Hasn't even called to reschedule. I use yelp for all my recommendations and thought all the reviews were not clearly reflective of his reliance. Very unprofessional.

Talked to Michael on his cell. He didn't service my area (which is totally understandable with LA traffic) but he was incredibly helpful, talked me through my issue, and referred me to another company. 5 Stars for trustworthiness and customer service.

I fully agree w/ the other reviewers who call A Custom Electric ""the real deal"". I called him after finding him on Yelp to simply consult abt my situation and was so thoroughly impressed w/ Michael (owner)'s helpfulness and knowledge that I wanted to make sure to write him a stellar review. Michael listened to my situation, educated me on basic electrical things related to my situation, and gave me suggestions on how I can resolve it, including giving me some references for electricians in my area. His mission is simply and clearly to help others w/ their electrical needs by offering his expertise. As another reviewer pointed out, money comes second to practicality: Ex1: he'll recognize a job we can do on our own to save us money, Ex2: he kindly offered his time over the phone on several occasions to help me understand & figure out how to resolve my electrical issue which obviously gave him no financial benefit. I don't know what technical terms to use to describe it, but in layman's terms, this business is built on sound ethics, genuine interest to help and not the corporate/money driven mind. Plus, he's been doing this for at least 2 decades so he's knowledgeable.

I called to get two outlets checked out in my kitchen, and the guy was like ""you can do it yourself! just check the GFI, I don't want to charge you for something so simple"" and he was right! I love these guys and due to their complete honesty I would highly recommend them to anyone I know for electrical.
When it's time for me to replace/redo some wiring, I am definitely going to call them to help me out. Didn't catch the electrician's name but This company definitely kicks ass.

Thanks again Electrician man!

A custom electric is the real deal. If you are looking for timely and professional service, these are the guys. Michael will take care of you. They preform quality work at a fair price. A custom rewired my restaurant from top to bottom and even consulted on lighting lay out and fixture choices. Top notch work at reasonable rates. I will use them again in the future.

The other day as I was getting ready to leave for work the garbarge disposal started spontaneously going off (while in the ""off"" position), leading me to believe that there was some kind of electrical short in the wall/near the switch, etc. Awesome. This is not the first time I have had electrical issues in this house - the wiring in my current place (a guest house) is questionable at best (and was not completed by a licensed electrician). I am now moving because I can't take any more stress from the weird electrical issues. Anyway, I turned to Yelp to help me find an electrician to help me with my emergency electrical problem (given that my landlord was then out of the country) and I called Michael because he had great reviews. Although I knew I could deduct the cost of the repairs from my rent, I was concerned about how much I would have to front to fix this problem and was worried about whether it could easily be repaired. I called Michael and he was amazing - professional, super nice and fast. He quoted me his hourly rate (w/ a one hour min - I think it was around $79). He figured out the problem within 15 mins or so (faulty switch), confirmed that the wiring here sucks (hence the reason for my move) and charged me $82 for the entire thing (ie, it was a little under an hour to fix the problem and a few dollars for the switch). Michael did a great job and I have had zero probems with the garbage disposal electrical issue since he fixed it (about two weeks ago). Thanks again for your help Michael!
