In 1996, I launched the company with a small client base and worked by myself. Before long, I recognized the need for help, so I brought my brother on board. A year later, my cousin joined us, and we strive to maintain a small company where we can ensure quality in materials and service. Ten years down the line, my son and son-in-law joined the team, allowing us to keep our family-operated values. I treat all my customers, both new and existing, like family, and our family has been growing for over 20 years.
I’m Gerardo, known as Gerry. Inspired by my father, a farmer who loved running his own business, I learned the importance of control over one’s life and time. He had strong principles and encouraged us to excel in everything we do. When my father found out I was studying electrical, he encouraged me to start my own venture. I felt that the right time would arrive, and I would know when to take that plunge. Initially, I worked for an electrical company for seven years, gaining more knowledge than I did in trade school. I launched my own business when I felt secure and equipped to deliver the best service to my clients. Since that moment, I have been grateful to pursue my passion.

Recommended Customer Reviews

Good professional work, went over and beyond; we had small a electrical problem with an outlet which was sparking and appeared to want to ignite. Contreras not only came out the same day and repaired the outlet but also checked the nearby outlets. Great work with honest pricing. Will use them again for any electrical repairs or work needed.

Gerry has done multiple jobs for us before and has always done an excellent job. Prompt, knowledgeable affordable and courteous we will always use him for any of our electrical job requirements. I highly recommend Gerry for any of your electrical needs.

Very happy with the service Other company recommend a service upgrade to fix a problem but Gerry came and just replace the part damaged so I did not need to replace the whole service panel, that save me at least 2 grand. Thank you Gerry for been honest and so professional. Excellent customer service and very professional I highly recommend Contreras Electric

I am very happy with Gerry's works. He is professional, sincere, honest, responsible and flexible. I had a new security gate installed at my house and needed a power for the electrical gate operator motor. I called few electricians for an estimate. Gerry was the first one who came. His estimate was reasonable so I agreed to have him work on the project. He added a new power line for the gate operator and routed the pipe under the basement so we only see minimum pipe outside of the building. He also added few extra outdoor outlets for me. I am very pleased with the quality of his works. Since he completed the first project last week, I have called him back couple of times to work on other areas such as troubleshooting and fixing my old alarm and doorbell systems. He not only fixed several electrical problems for me, he also fixed electrical problems for my neighbor too. Gerry provides great services and great price. I highly recommend him!!!!!.

Very Happy With The Job . . Gerry Was Great!!! I highly recommend him. Having to deal with different electricians I am very satisfied with him ... He found the problem fast and solved it.

Garry was very professional. He certainly know the trade. Most of all very reasonably priced and conservative in a good way. I needed to power up a plug and play hot tub I recently purchased from Costco and he accommodated my time sensitive schedule. He also changed few light sensor around my house. I certainly found my go to electrician if I need one in the future.

Gerry is the best, I highly recommend him to anybody looking for an electrician. I had a pool motor that kept shorting out and Jerry was finally able to figure out what was going on and got everything back up and running. I will use him again for any of my electric needs in the future.

Best experience by far. I called Jerry on a Friday and he came over Saturday. Jerry gave me a great price right off the bat. I highly recommend him. He does exceptional work for a reasonable price.
I was going to call around to compare rates but Jerry gave me a great price. He installed four LED lights in my kitchen. It looks great.
Thanks Jerry!

Great service from Jerry. He is friendly and helpful. It turned out to be a simple fix so he gave me a discount. I will definitely call them again when I need work done.
