CPA Electric

I keep delaying getting a new panel as they are costly until a neighbor referred Chad. Chad offered a very reasonable quote, that I even had to double check with my neighbor if the price is right and he confirmed. Chad even took the time to label each location in the panel so that I can easily determine each of the switches. Thank you Chad for the wonderful service and doing a great job -- you rock!

Chad made the whole experience of having a professionally electrician amazing, from the time he pulled up until work was done. He explained his work thoroughly, upgraded on the spot recommendations, maintained professional etiquette. He upgraded light switches, outlets, LED lighting, security cams and more. Chad has fantastic workmanship and gave timely installation on the recessed lighting. His prices are the most reasonable and affordable in the LA area. I highly recommend and will be using CPA electric from now on out. If you're looking for a honest and professional electrician, call Chad.

Knowledgeable and respectful electrician who professionally performed the work. He quickly answered to our questions and gave the price and time quote for the EV charger installation.
Reciept and 1year warranty was provided upon completion. Clean and neat work.
Recommended!

I would definitely recommend this electrician to friends and family hard working. Showed up on time and had great prices. I told him I wanted a light sensor/camera installed at my house and he did it fast. I also had him replace on of my plugs in the kitchen to a sensor light so when I walked in it would turn on. Thanks again Chad for your help!!! Would use again when needed.

Chad Abbott was given a simple task, to move a wire, that would take an experienced electricianabout an hr. He talked nonstop about how experienced he was, but seven hrs into his incompetence the lights in our house did not work and he could not even identify where he messed up. He cut off a wire somewhere, so half of the house went off grid. Right away blamed it on a bad breaker, claimed breakers were old, bad and need to be changed. So he did. Dah! Changing all breakers did not fix the issue, still no electricity. So Chad Abott claimed he would not charge the client for new breakers that were not needed anyways. Documented, recorded.

Chad moved on to another area saying someone before him messed up the wiring even though everything was working well for over 5 yrs in the house. Got several recepticals and switches out, made a mess, found nothing that could fix the issue he originally caused, but fingerpointed and blamed the local electrician who wired the light 5 yrs ago that worked perfectly. Still did not fix the issue he caused. His analytical thinking leaves much to be desired.

Unable to diagnose what it is that he's done to the wiring, he had to run another wire to bypass the problem. ""Fixed it""? Not! Strarted putting all the other switches and recepticals together ""the right way"", well they stopped working. The homeowner basically babysat these guys all day. Found a connection Chris left ungrounded, reminded him to ground it several times. It was left ungrounded. Told Chad to wire everything he touched back together how it was. Chad started to behave unprofessionally, raising his voice, arguing, became belligerent, blaming everybody but himself, lost a 3 way switch the homeowner provided, etc. The homeowner finally told Chad to put everything back together and working, use correct screws on a switch instead of wood screw that was stripping the threads Chad was using. The dude went nuts. Homeowner told him raising his voice was not going to be tolerated on the property. They had enough of this ""licensed electrician's"" antics, false promises and 6 hours of bs (coupled with constant concocted lies fed to the next client who was waiting all day).

Chad Abott threw a major temper tantrum, screamed he was going to take all his new breakers out, but refused to put the homeowner's breakers back in. Basically he threatened to just leave the house without electricity. Why then tell the homeowner he changed them for free? Ooops!

CPA electric ran away from the job site leaving several recepticals out of the wall with bare wires out, one switch that was working perfectly before his ""services"" now does not work, other switches are out, wires left ungrounded, trash everywhere. They were in a hurry to ""another client"".

And then the sh*t hit the ceiling fan. Threats, demands, accusations of non-payment, attempts to paint homeowners as thieves, ""see you in court"" drama. Unbelievable verbal abuse, all documented in texts coming from CPA Electric.

The homeowner asked for CPA Electric license number, insurance contacts and his attorney's contact, told the attorney to contact the homeowner asap. Chad Abbott bragged he did not pay for insurance. He lies on his cards.

Hold on! The payment was not even discussed as CPA Electric ran away in a hurry to another client with job unfinished, leaving this job a complete disaster. What payment were they talking about?

On the way out Chad Abbott were threatening the homeowner that when the homeowner leaves, he was going to come back and get all of his new breakers he supposedly installed at no charge

All of this was recorded on homeowner's cameras.
Threats, accusations mixed with apologies coming from Chad Abbott vary hr by hr. Abott called us 10 times at night threatening.

Two absolutely Useless boys. No truth. Boss and helper as as useless as each other. Got paid for a job, and took off. Started avoiding calls and texts. Only when told I will pay them a visit they quickly started responding and still lied and lied. Waste of time these ones.

I personally would not recommend Chad to do any electric work. I had to repay another electrician to fix everything he did. He installed a ceiling fan and didn't secure it properly. Just wanted to warn everyone maybe it was a one time mess up but he didn't do a good job for us.

My parents don't speak very good English, so I handle many of their affairs and such. And that's why I'm making this review. I used to be an electrical apprentice, but dropped out. That's why I can say I'm pretty blown away at how fast Chad can determine what a problem is, and give the best options. At least it's not a pace I'm used to seeing. I feel he is fair, reliable and the work looks great on the panel upgrade he did and the recessed lighting. It gives me one less thing to worry about with my parents. I feel their in good hands and he cares. I have zero reason to look elsewhere.
