Company Overview

Are you looking to upgrade outdated wiring in your home? In that case, Contreras Electric Co in Sylmar, CA is your solution. Our company is a dependable electrical contractor that specializes in both installation and repair. Our team manages all aspects of electrical work. Our skilled team has the knowledge to serve both home and business customers. Our licensed electricians can handle any electrical component in your home or office.

We are licensed (license number: CA #767867) and provide services throughout Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley.

Our journey began in 1996 with just a handful of clients and me working solo. Soon after, I realized I needed assistance, so I trained my brother. A year later, my cousin came on board, and we aim to keep our company small to maintain control over quality. 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. I was motivated by my father, a farmer who enjoyed managing his own business and instilled in me the importance of controlling 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 believed the right moment would come, and I would know when to take that step. Initially, I worked for an electrical company for seven years, gaining more knowledge than I did in trade school. I started my own business when I felt confident and experienced enough to provide the best for my customers. Since then, I have felt truly blessed to be doing what I love.

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.

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!!!!!.

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!
