Recommended Customer Reviews

Had a few outlets that didn't work and had 2 larger companies turn me away because the job was too small (they were actually friendly and honest about the fact that the charge to come out wasn't worth it). But they recommended Carlos and thankfully he was able to come out the same day. Responsive and efficient. Will definitely keep his info for future calls!

Carlos was great! He fixed a problem with my electrical in one hour that had been ongoing for 3 years. Will definitely use The Wire Guy again for any electrical issues that may come up!! Highly recommended!!

Carlos was great. Come over and wired my entre house with Ethernet
wiring. For those of you that have Netflix and are tired of crappy wifi
during peak hours - I recommend installing Ethernet wiring from your
wifi modem. Crystal clear 4K viewing all the time! Thanks Carlos for
allowing me to use all of my 4K tvs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got stood up twice in the same day. He didn't show up the first time, so I called asking what's up. He apologized and said rescheduled for the afternoon.
I waited again, for hours, but he didn't show up that time either and no phone call.
Lost a day of work waiting.
Would NOT recommend.

Carlos was recommended to me by a local competitor who was scheduling 2 months out. (Recommended by a competitor - 1st star)
I explained over the phone that I had a non-functioning electrical outlet in my back yard that used to power my sprinkler timer box. This particular outlet did not have a reset button.
Carlos explained to me over the phone to check other outlets that may be on the same circuit and try resetting them. He offered to come out today within 2 hrs if needed. (Same day availability - 2nd star)
After checking a few outlets I found the one with the reset to restore power to the backyard outlet. There was no charge and I learned a little something in the process.
A simple fix from a nice guy.
Carlos gets my next call for electrical work!
Thanks

Carlos has done the the electrical work for a kitchen and bathroom remodel, replaced an old electrical meter, a fuse box and a doorbell system. He also installed outdoor lighting and an outdoor electrical socket. All the work has been excellent. He is sincere, honest, fair and professional. Carlos does outstanding work at a reasonable price. My wife and I could not be more pleased.

I decided to change some light switches to look more up to date; causing my power to go out at 4:30pm. I was referred to Carlos, he answered on the second ring and said he could be out by 6pm to fix the issue.
I arrive at 5:30pm, did some troubleshooting and within 20 minutes had my power back up. While he was here he also fixed some wiring issues and helped me finish the project. He also gave me an extremely fair price.
I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an electrician!
Thank you again Carlos!

Carlos has done extensive electrical work on my home in Palos Verdes. He always shows up and completes the job properly. I will continue to call Carlos for any work needed. See attached photo Of remodel. Carlos completed all the electric work for this bathroom and bedroom. I consider Carlos a friend.

I live in Northern California and was recently in Torrance at my in laws and needed the help of an electrician so I went on Yelp to help find one on short notice.
After calling a couple places and being told that they couldn't get out to me until a week later, which wouldn't help me I called Carlos.
He answered his phone right away and I explained my situation.
He said that he was all booked up, but that he'd come by after he finished for the day if that was ok with me.
Of course I accepted.
Sure enough, Carlos showed up later in the day and within minutes he was quickly working away.
I needed several ring flood light cameras installed which he finished up in no time at all.
I asked him since he was here if he'd be willing to switch out another spot light with a motion sensor and he said no problem.
I can't say enough positive thoughts about Carlos, he was fast, friendly and efficient.
I know who I'll call if I ever need an electrician while visiting LA.
Do not hesitate to call him, I'm confident you'll be very happy with his work.
Thanks again, Carlos.
You saved the day.

Several outlets in my kitchen and the starter for my gas stove stopped working. I called around to a lot of electricians on Yelp that said they would come out but I would need to pay for a two hour minimum visit charge. Carlos, on the other hand, diagnosed and fixed my problem over the phone for free! I will definitely call him next time I have an electrical problem. He's awesome!
