We love Abraham and Mike from Budget Electric. We originally found them through our home warranty company, but they've been back to re-wire and install a photocell and outdoor fixtures. They are honest, super kind and respectful, and stand by their work with an installation warranty. We're so grateful to know a trustworthy electrical company!

The electrician that came out to perform the diagnostic and repair didn't even want to listen to me or check into the issues I was telling him. As soon as I told him the microwave was tripping the fuse, he immediately just told me I need a dedicated circuit for the microwave but he didn't even check if the outlet was good or if something is wrong with the microwave; he didn't even go near it (I later on hired another company, their electrician was able to figure out the issue and the microwave works fine without tripping a fuse now). And for another issues with a tripping fuse, he was so confident that it was the breaker that was causing the issue and replaced it, but later on I found out the breaker he replaced wasn't even connected to the appliance that was tripping the fuse! In fact, the breaker he replaced wasn't connected to anything at all! It was a waste of money, never again!

We had budget electric because of AHS.

The electrician broke light/fan in the main restroom while trying to fix fan in the guest restroom. Then he blame the insulation company for breaking the conjunction box in the attic. We need to pay him $240 for further inspection on the attic and the insulation company should fix it instead of budget electric.

I called budget electric many times and the phone is not reachable for more of the time. Finally someone answered the phone but refuse to admit their fault.

I ended up finding another electrician, who inspected the attic and found no conjunction box.

I was assigned Budget Electric through my home warranty company. I was lucky to get a great electrician named Miguel, who was very professional. I appreciated his knowledge and skills, and courteous manner. Everything was taken care of to our satisfaction. We would use Budget Electric in the future and recommend it to others.

Budget Electric is just so great!

1 other electrical company did not respond for days. Another electrician from another company came but was not able to fix the problem. I was getting frustrated!

But when I called Budget Electric, I was able to get an appointment right away.

Miguel (from Budget Electric) came on time, was very professional, and took no time to diagnose the problem. He explained to me my options and then replaced the breaker that was causing the intermittent power failure and shutdown to a certain section of my house. And alas(!), the problem was solved.

Thank you so much, Miguel. Thank you Budget Electric. You just lightened up my day!!!

Was referred to Budget Electric by our home warranty company and they were excellent. Michael came by and was able to resolve the issue within minutes. Had a great friendly demeanor and switched out our lights without charging extra even though technically it wasn't covered.

Abraham from Budget Electric was absolutely amazing.

First, he listened to our concerns, provided us with a wealth of information, took the time to carefully fix each and every issue we were having, and took the time to categorize each breaker so that we were aware of how to shut down specific areas in case of emergencies.

Prior to using Budget Electric, I had the awful experience of using JC Electrical (Don't ever use them). Home insurance first hired JC Electrical, and after they left, my electrical box began to smoke and they refused to come back and fix it (same guy Jose came twice and made it worse each time).

Thank goodness for Abraham from Budget Electric. He was able to identify that the previous electrician (Jose from JC Electrical) broke two breakers while installing them, used a burnt out breaker (and told me it was new), and installed a breaker that had the wrong amp (which nearly burned down my house).

Abraham was phenomenal, not just as an electrician, but as a human being. Really a great person/electrician, Budget Electric needs to sign him to a max deal :P

Thanks again Abraham!!

I lost the power only in my garage. My warranty company scheduled my electrical problem with Budget Electric. I am very impressed with the Company. I called yesterday and spoke with the rep (forgot her name but she was terrific) who scheduled me for today between the hours of 12:00-2:00. Sergio came over within this timeframe. He reset all my breakers and the power came back on in my garage. This was within 5 minutes of his arrival. Then we discussed a better option for my garage as I have too many products running through one circuit. I will definitely use Sergio to come back and upgrade my electricity in the garage. Thank you.

Today I had the joy of welcoming Miguel from Budget Electric into my home to look at a broken bathroom exhaust fan and faulty switches throughout the house.

Given COVID-19, I was very anxious about allowing anyone into our home but this was an absolute necessity so I scheduled the service. I read the Yelp reviews and became apprehensive since the reviews are rather mixed and either quite good or quite bad, I didn't like those odds. I was worried I was going to have a bad experience based on previous reviews. Like many other people I had scheduled service through my home warranty provider (Fidelity).

I was pleasantly taken aback by how professional, courteous, and knowledgeable Miguel is! The appointment window was 10-12. He arrived at 9:58am and knocked on my door at 10:01, very punctual. He was cheerful and carried himself with ease and pride of craftsmanship. He greeted me and explained what he was there to inspect and fix and then went about his work.

Miguel wore a face mask, kept at least 6 feet of distance, and even offered to tidy up after he was done. Wow! It's those little details that make it a white glove experience.

He recommended replacing my broken fan (which requires authorization from Fidelity) and disconnected the fan and put the cover back so that so that we can use the bathroom in the meantime. Thanks to Miguel we can use our bathroom again! Before we couldn't even turn on the light. He also fixed our faulty light switches so we don't have a strobe light effect in the kitchen, dining, and hallway anymore.

The house is in far better condition after his work. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Miguel. Thank you Miguel!
