Chris and his team of professional electricians are amazing! We purchased our home in La Jolla and it needed basically everything electrical replace, lights, switches, plugs, etc. They showed up when they said they would, communication was excellent and quality of workmanship was top notch! The positive attitude while they worked was so refreshing

Highly recommend!

Very disappointing. Initially, Chris is a nice guy came out to our house and did a bunch of lighting work at a very fair price. Unfortunately, when we tried to reach him to come out to finish one of the projects he had started he was impossible to reach. My wife tried to contact him repeatedly and he refused to communicate. Then I attempted, he responded one time said he would come out but then never did and never got back to me and totally ignored my follow up calls and texts. So he does do good work at a fair price but very flakey and you will be lucky if he ever comes back to your house to finish the job.

Reliable, capable and good to deal with. Glad I found them using Yelp. High ratings are well deserved based on my experience.

i was unable to return a breaker switch to the on position, so I didn't use those outlets. When I called Chris, he told me that I probably wasn't pushing the switch correctly. He told me how to reset the switch. He saved me immense hassles and LOTS of money. I will absolutely call him with any electric problems. AMAZING!

WHAT OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE!! We have used Chris before at our home and oddly, one of the outlets in our garage just stopped working? Being an Electrical Engineer (educationally only), I thought, of course, ""OKAY, I can try to fix it!""

I read all the articles on what to do when an outlet goes bad and things to check, I even replaced the outlet and it still did not work. I noticed that one of the breakers was switching oddly, so maybe it was the breaker? So, we called Chris.

On the phone, Chris took me through some possible sources of the problem to check. The last check involved the GCI outlets in the house, kitchen, bathrooms, and guess what, . . . . . . . the GCI outlet in the master bathroom had accidentally had the TEST button pushed when I was cleaning the bathroom walls. My bad!! A quick reset and the garage outlet is working!! THANK YOU Chris and Del Mar Electric!!!

Several outlets at our home went out during the recent storms. Chris responded quickly to my message and walked me through the solution over the phone. His solution worked perfectly and we have electricity again!!! Great customer service! I'll definitely use and refer Del Mar electric in the future!!

In January of 2020 my tenant contacted me about one of the smoke detectors located in the kitchen making chirping noises. I contacted Del Mar Electric to make the necessary repairs. The smoke detectors are hard wired. Someone from the company went out and did the installation. I received a bill for $225.00 labor only and $65.0O for the new detector. I was shocked at the labor cost and contacted them asking why so expensive. I never did receive any type of satisfactory response. I went ahead and paid the bill figuring it was my fault for not checking on their rates. Last week my tenant called again with the smoke detector in the master bedroom chirping.
I called a local handiman who went out that day, replaced the unit and checked all the others (3) in the house. All of them needed new batteries and one had the wires cut. His total bill including supplies was $255.00. Del Mar Electric never even looked at the other smoke detectors. They are a total trip off not to mention unprofessional.
Under no circumstancases would I ever use them again.

From initial phone call to job finish, Chris was great to work with. Knowledgeable, and efficient, Chris was able to knock the chandelier install out of the park. Will not waste anytime looking at other electricians as Chris provides the best service around.

Chris and his son provide excellent service. They installed under cabinet lighting in my kitchen and a chandelier with complex and fragile drops. They do top quality work, are friendly and highly professional. Living in RSF we often experience the ""RSF markup"" from service providers. Del Mar Electric's pricing is reasonable. I highly recommend them.

Really fantastic service from Chris at Del Mar Electric. He was able to give us same-day service to update a subpanel in our new townhouse, and also fixed a few electrical odds and ends that weren't working. He and his team were extremely professional and super friendly, got all of the work done quickly, and left us with smiles on our faces! Really can't recommend him enough. Glad to know we've got such a great electrician in the neighborhood!
