For over 21 years, I have been the treasurer of the Crescenta Valley Chamber of Commerce. I have actively coached and sponsored local sports teams, which has strengthened my ties to the community.

Wow, Craig deserves all the five star reviews. He just left my house after sorting out a light switch in my son's bedroom and replacing a blown circuit breaker, and now we have lights back on!
I came home this evening after 7PM and upon learning that the light switch in my son's room was broken I decided to quickly replace it. In my defense I have done this many times in the past (without switching off the circuit breaker). The room was a bit dark and I didn't realize one of the wires I had disconnected was touching the switch point. It caused an electric arc, and there went the power in several rooms in the house. I was skeptical that any electrician would be available at 7:20PM. Even though Craig's ad on Yelp showed ""24/7"" I didn't think anyone would answer. Well, not only did Craig answer my call, he showed up in 30 minutes to sort out my problems and became a hero to my 6 year old! Craig was an easy going nice guy as well. Despite the last minute late evening visit his fees were quite reasonable. I would certainly call him again and feel comfortable recommending him to my family and friends.

I've used Craig's Electric for the past couple of years for all my electrical needs for my house and my businesses and have been very satisfied with the work, pricing and his knowledge. I've had a hard time finding a great electrician the last few years but don't have to worry about that anymore!

Craig came by the house and fixed my electrical problem that was impacting our AC. He was kind, honest and straight to the point. He was able to fix the problem quickly.

Craig at Craig's Electric is well, pretty terrific. He returns calls very promptly, arrives on time, is very professional and personable. He is not a salesman which I appreciate. He clearly explains the issue at hand and is very honest in his answers as far as needing extra work done. We live in an older home and he could have easily tried to sell us on all sorts of work. He checked for safety and then let us know what our options were and that there was no need for anything else at that time NO pressure at all to do anything extra. I was concerned about the safety of some of our wiring. Craig thoroughly examined everything I had questions about with the utmost patience. As he was checking things out, he was carefully explaining and showing me everything to give me peace of mind. He even swung by later in the evening before his family dinner plans to quickly check something out for us and solved our problem in a minute! He didn't seem put out at all by the call and reassured us that it was no problem at all. I cannot recommend Craig highly enough, and it gives me great peace of mind to know that we now have an electrician that we can trust and rely on!

I texted Craig the problem. He told me he could get to my house in an hour. He got there on time. He finished quickly. He explained what was wrong and what I should do to prevent anything else going wrong. The price was very reasonable. He is a gentleman. I am very happy with his service and you will be too.
He earned his 5 star review.

I am so happy to have found a great electrician. I had some lights in my backyard which stopped working. I had one electrician come out. They did not fix the lights but did all sorts of wiring that cost a fortune. Days later I called Craig. He was on time, fixed the lights and charged me a very reasonable fee. I cannot say enough about him and will recommend him to anyone needing any type of electrical work done. He is great!

I love using Craig's Electric! As a realtor, our clients may come across many issues with the electrical wiring, panel, outlets, etc during inspections of residential and commercial properties. Craig and his team do a great job to educate our clients during this step of the process. Honest and hardworking i would recommend Craig whether you need an entire complex rewired as we had with our HOA several years ago or for your average panel upgrade when your Zinsco has kicked the bucket!

Craig's Electric put some landscape lighting in for me. They stopped working. I put a call in to him with no reply. Called again and texted. Finally got a response. Said he would check lights at 9am the next day. The next day he texted that he had an emergency and was running late. I had an appointment and had to leave. He called when he was at my house. Said it was the photo cell and that he would call me again. That was 5 days ago. Haven't heard from him since. Very disappointing and unprofessional.

This is the best electrician on the planet! He brought all of my grandmother's rental units up to code. And the best part is that he didn't take advantage of her like the 4 other electricians that gave her bids for the same work! Hands down the best in the business!
