Del Mar Electric
Company Overview
We excel at pinpointing issues. We understand every phase of electrical solutions and are committed to fixing power problems.
We are a family-operated firm for over, I honed my skills in the north of California while working for a reputable company called Foley Electric Company. I worked five wonderful years before moving to my wife's hometown of the beautiful San Diego. I became enamored with this wonderful city of San Diego. It is similar to my native city of Santa Barbara, CA, but the coastal waters here is much clearer and more inviting.
We started this company in 2000 while residing in Carmel Valley. We are based in Solana Beach and serve the whole of North County, CA. I received my electrical training in Northern California for a duration of five years before moving to Cardiff, where I worked with another family-owned business called Fredrick's Electric Services before opening my own business. We are proud members of the BBB with an A+ accreditation.

Denise C.Absolutely the very best! We've used Chris several times now, and he's always helped with all of our electrical needs. He's one I refer out to my own clients as well. Chris is professional, friendly, knowledgeable and just an awesome person. He's been on our ""speed dial"" this last month and always makes time to get us on his schedule. I highly recommend him!
Chris was extremely responsive, efficient , and capable. He arrived at my house in less than one hour and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem of my circuit breaker tripping frequently when my Tesla charger was running. They found a frayed wire at the circuit from a faulty installation of the charger. (Note: The charger was installed by a non-licensed electrician)
I would definitely hire him again.
Very responsive. Responded quickly to text messages, showed up on time and was well prepared. Can't say enough good things!
Bonnie L.I had a couple last minute things I needed to get done same day and Chris came to my rescue! He responded quickly and was able to arrive to my house within a couple hours. He really saved me and I am so appreciative!! Thanks Chris!!
Mark V.Chris and his son installed a ring floodlight outside my garage and an additional outlet inside a closet. They budgeted 4 hours but we're able to complete the job in 1.5. They were professional and knowledgeable. Would definitely use them again if I need an electrician!
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!
Mike E.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.
Phil B.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!
Edward T.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!!!
