While in high school, Rick Barger Jr. began his journey as an apprentice electrician at the age of 16. He would accompany his father, commercial electrical contractor Rick Barger Sr., on service calls and basic installations.

After turning 18, Rick Barger started his own journey as an apprentice electrician. In a short time, he excelled in the demanding areas of the field, becoming a journeyman electrician in two years. As a journeyman, he developed his technical skills and understood the intricacies of customer service and management.

In 2010, Rick decided to start his own electrical contracting business and partnered with his father, Rick Sr., to establish what is now known as Barger Electric of Simi Valley.

Rick the owner of Barger Electric really came through for me on a relatively small electrical project of installing 2 ceiling heater fans for my bathrooms. He answers his phone when you call him and he shows up on time when promised. He gave me a good price for the work involved but where he shined above the rest is his willingness to get the job done now as opposed to the typical (let me check my schedule and get back to you BS) He actually called one of his guys in the field and asked them to come by my house TODAY and get the job done! I went from estimate to work completed in probably less than 4 hours total! His guys were clean, polite, respectful, and fast. They never complained about anything like so many other tradesman often do in an effort to inflate their original estimate (i.e. oh wow this is harder than I thought, you really have a tough house here, I did a lot of work here, etc, etc). The price was the price and I SUPER appreciated that! I will continue to use Rick and Barger Electric for all of my electric needs in the future and would be happy to refer them to anyone who asks me for a ""referral"" of a good and honest electrician. Thanks Rick...until next time.

We've been searching for a reliable electrician and today we hit the jackpot with Barger Electric. The issue today was certainly not dire but Rick responded within a couple of hours and had it fixed with a part he happened to carry on his truck. So now that I have someone who will answer the phone, show up when he says he will, do a great job and won't leave with all my money, I'm going to make a list of all the electrical chores we've been putting off and call him again!

I have used Barger Electric for a few years now and they are by far my go to Electrician. I've used them to install recessed lighting and multiple ceiling fans on two of my homes. I've also had them install a new electrical panel and new electrical throughout my garage. They are very responsive and I had an issue with one light not dimming properly and they came and fixed it with no questions asked. Don't look any further for a great and very reasonable electrician.

Two years ago we did a partial kitchen remodel and spruced up the old homestead a bit with new paint, base boards, floor and cabinets refinishing. We also changed out some lighting and upgraded all of our outlets. The work was done by a contractor we knew and his referred electrician. Shortly after the work was done (and everything looked great) we began having trouble with three outlets in the kitchen sometimes they worked and most times they didn't. After the contractor checked it twice and the electrician checked it twice, they blamed each other and stopped returning our calls! We lived without half of our kitchen outlets for at least 18 months until finally my wife had enough and suggested we call Barger, a local business that she'd noticed their trucks in the neighborhood. Rick is amazing! We called him yesterday and he came out today. In 20 minutes he'd identified the problem and in less than an hour, the work was done. The most disconcerting thing is that it was all due to a broken wire in the wall, the kind that burn down houses! Thank you Rick Barger for SAVING MY HOUSE!!! And all for just the price of a service call!

If you need electrical work, don't bother calling anyone else. They are busy because they are good. They made arrangements to take care of my electrical needs and made sure the job was perfect. If you want a professional job that's done right. Call them you be very happy that you did.

So finally I'm able to write a true review of Rick's work. I apologize that I didn't get this out sooner. Let me start by saying that Rick is a nice guy. He and his help Kyle were so great when they finally were able to come and do the work. The work was excellent, quality, and they were quick. Rick really knows his electrical. The price is right as well. We are throughly and finally able to enjoy the living room now that we have lights in there. Just a few things to note with this company. He needs to be have a calendar so he can book appointments when people are ready to book and call him. He seems a bit disorganized but is very knowledgable about the homes around the area he works in. He didn't need to come out and give me an estimate. The only other thing Rick did not explain to me is he does not repair drywall. If they have to cut into the drywall make sure you or you have someone to patch the drywall after the install of the recessed lights. I would definitely recommend Barger Electric.

I am a long time customer of Barger Electric. I always call Rick when I need an electrician because he is knowledgeable, friendly, on time, and super reliable. His prices are extremely fair and I 100% recommend his services.

Barger did an excellent job of installing recessed lights in a bedroom and an exhaust fan/heater combination in a bathroom ceiling. The price was good and the work professional. Then the plastic ""cover"" to one of the recessed lights separated from the fixture and fell down. However my son-in-law was able to glue the ""cover"" back on by holding it in place with frog tape while the glue dried. Then a few weeks later, the same thing happened with a second light, so I called Barger. Rick was as surprised as I was since he had never seen this happen and he replaced both defective lights with new ones. I plan to have a heater installed in a secondary bathroom and will definitely call on Rick Barger.
