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.
Shortly after turning 18, Rick Barger embarked on his own path as an apprentice electrician. It didn’t take long for him to master the demanding aspects of the trade; within two years, he became a journeyman electrician. In this role, he not only refined his hands-on electrical skills but also gained insights into customer service and management.
Rick chose to launch his own electrical contracting company in 2010, collaborating with his father, Rick Sr., to create Barger Electric of Simi Valley.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Rick is busy because he is in high demand. There are good reasons for this: quick to respond, efficient with the job, great prices, and a true pro. Three new ceiling fan outlets were installed in the roof and no trace of any kind of mess. When I need an electrician, I will be calling him.

Made the mistake of having an unlicensed handyman come and install two ceiling fans. Total disaster: wobbly fan, no electricity to two walls, LED light didn't work etc. Called Rick who came out with his apprentice Sean and together they fixed the mess the handyman had made. Reinstalled both fans, got the LED light working, and redid wiring that had been cut. Quick, courteous, and prompt with great communication skills at a very reasonable price! Highly recommend and will definitely call again for any electrical needs! Thanks Rick and Sean!

Fast service and fair rates!!!
I have had Rick do a few jobs at my home in the past (installing additional outlets and wiring up new recessed lighting) and recently had him do an emergency repair for a complete circuit being down. All of the work was done quickly and professionally. Highly recommended.

All I can say is Rick is awesome professional electrician, very dedicated and customer focused. I had one of my outlet burn on Christmas Eve night and I couldn't get anyone the next morning. Rick understood the urgency and took time away from his family gathering to fix this problem.
Very knowledgeable and was able to find out the issue and fix it quickly. I'm thankful to him for his great help at this moment. I would recommend Rick to all my friends and contacts.

Today's Christmas Eve and our power went out due to portable heaters. I wanted to give a HUGE THANK YOU to Rick who helped talk me through resetting the breakers over the phone and for saving Christmas! I'll definitely reach out again for future electrical needs. You rock Rick!

Great work, fast response and affordable prices!
Rick and has team came out on short notice and helped put in, and recommend spacing, for 20 recessed lights in my new townhome. I originally had Rick's team come out to take care of my living room (which needed to be finished prior to my painters starting), however, upon completion and one day later, I realized the bedrooms in my house had horrible lighting. Rick sent out his team again on short notice to ensure I got all my lights in prior to the painting and saved me an entire day's delay.
Great work, good guy, affordable prices and swift responsiveness. Highly recommended!

Rick is great! I've have him do three different projects for me. He's always on time, quick and he cleans up after himself. His prices are reasonable and he always talks through all the options with me.

I just finished getting my LED lights installed and a bunch of re-wiring for an amazing deal! I called around 30 places from Oxnard to Irvine and no one beat the prices like this company did. The job was done on-time start to finish and could have not been any better! I highly recommend this company for your electrical needs!

Based on the other yelp reviews and a special they were running on recessed lights, I was really hoping I could get them to come do some electrical work for me. Unfortunately I can't get them to return my calls! I've left two messages(one on Monday, one on Thursday) and here it is Friday afternoon and I still have not had a response. What a terrible way to do business. I'm very disappointed. We have a lot of eletrical work that needs to be done over the next few months and this will definitely not be the shop getting my business.

Great work...really liked the owner. Honest and does quality work. Installed several switches, outlets and recessed lights with minimal disturbance to drywall. Only downfall was scheduling....so busy and has jobs lined up for weeks.
