Company Overview

We focus on resolving issues. We are well-versed in every phase of electrical work and are committed to fixing electrical issues.

Being a family-run company for more than, I honed my skills in the northern part of California while working for a reputable company called Foley Electric Services. I was employed there for a period of five years before transferring to my spouse's hometown of the beautiful San Diego. I grew fond of this fantastic city of this coastal gem. It reminds me of my original home of Santa Barbara, CA, but the ocean here is far clearer and more inviting.

We launched this company in the early 2000s while living in Carmel Valley, CA. We are based in the Solana Beach area and provide services to the whole of the North County region. I obtained my training in electrical work in the northern region of California for five years before moving to Cardiff by the Sea, where I gained experience with another family-owned business called Fredrick's Electric Services before launching my own company. We are proud members of the BBB with an A+ status.

Very pleasant and reasonable! We had some outlets that weren't working and booked an appointment for Chris to take a look. However, by the time he came out, we were able to fix it ourselves (broken fuse). We expected him to charge us for having to come out and we would have paid, but he didn't charge us! We'll definitely use Del Mar Electric next time we have a problem we can't fix ourselves!

I needed 16 smoke detectors changed out in my house and was really scared about how much it would cost. I was pleasantly surprised when Chris suggested I purchase the smoke detectors (and a few combo carbon dioxide/smoke detectors) directly from Home Depot and then call him for the install. He and his son came out and installed the detectors quickly and they are so nice too! I would 100% recommend them and will be calling again next time I need some work done. Thank you!

They picked up the phone right away and were able to troubleshoot with me over the phone to solve my breaker issue. I would use them again for small or large needs! Thanks

Del Mar Electric is a highly skilled Father and Son professional team. It was impressive to see how efficiently they worked together. I have used about 5 other electricians and I rate Chris and Del Mar Electric #1. No hesitation to recommend them for top quality work. I give them 10 stars or an A + rating because they exceeded my expectations.

I needed someone to install dimmers and a complex chandelier bought in Mexico and Chris responded and arrived in 1 hour!! On time and professional and go the job done with zero issues. Will use them again for any lighting needs we have.

Del Mar Electric is the best! Our hardwired smoke detectors have been going off randomly in the middle of the night (no fun!) so we decided it was time to replace them all. I had heard about Del Mar Electric from a neighbor and after a weekend of being woken up twice by the screeching smoke detectors, I called Chris this morning. Chris said he'd try to fit us in today, and sure enough, he and his associate were here this afternoon to install 8 new smoke detectors throughout our house. He charged me a very reasonable price, was super friendly, professional and knowledgeable, and best of all, we hope to not suffer through anymore middle-of-the-night false alarms! Highly recommend these guys.

Chris was very responsive and was able to come to my house within 30 minutes I called him. I would definitely recommend him.

I found Chris of Del Mar Electric through Nextdoor. He had several excellent reviews, so I called him for an issue we had with our outdoor lighting. He was prompt, quickly figured out what was wrong, and got it fixed. I've had him here a few times since for various issues and have always been happy. We highly recommend him!

Chris responds rapidly. Has very fair pricing and is a consummate professional. He installed a new electrical box and a Tesla home charger. I am very satisfied and recommend him to anyone looking to have big or small jobs done right the first time.

We called Del Mar Electric to do a couple of unique jobs at our home in Rancho Santa Fe. One of the jobs was to install a motor for a sculpture and we had a number of other things on our punch list. Chris was terrific!! He showed up on time, did all of the things beautifully and even fixed some electrical things that others had told me they couldn't fix. We will definitely use him for any electrical needs in the future. We were super impressed.
