Express Electrical Services

I would have given zero starts if that was an option. We had a power surge a few weeks ago, and lost power. I called and Express Electrical sent out an ""electrician"" to diagnose and fix the problem. The ""electrician"" took a look at the panel, took photos, went into the house (took the plate off of one light switch), and went up into the attic for 5 minutes. When he came out, he told us we needed to get the whole house rewired for $48,000. I asked him what caused the surge, and he said bad wires in the house. He collected $125 for the service call, and we told him don't call us, we'll call you. I found real electrician, who came out (actually took his tools off his belt) and after 2 hours finally diagnosed the problem as an Edison issue (broken neutral line from the power pole), and temporarily patched the broken wire until Edison came out and fixed it. Save yourself the aggravation and don't call these people.

Very overpriced. I called Express Electrical services because my garage door wasn't opening. I paid $1300 and it took only half hour to fix it. I talked to supervisor and he told me with all the knowledge electrician has to do the troubleshooting it is the right price. Technician wrote in the invoice jobs he didn't do. Very bad experience, wouldn't recommend to anybody.

I would not recommend Express electrical after charging me $1700 for 3 clip in recess lightings that I cannot change the brightness unless I remove the light from the ceiling. The same lights are on Temu for $2...find another electrical company that cares about integrity.

We hired Express Electrical Services on June 11th to replace our breaker box outside of our home. The job was to take one day and they were extremely over-priced. We had a problem and had no choice so we hired them. The job took 44 days to complete and in doing the job they damaged the wall on the inside of the house, which they volunteered to repair but having seen the time and the terrible work they did outside we did not want them in the house, we asked for a can of paint and hired our own painter to do the job. Our recommendation is if you are in need of an electrician shop around, we cannot recommend Express Electrical Services not will we ever use them again.

I called to inquire about having a motor from an older model skylight, rewired or replaced. I was told they could do it. After taking all my information and about to set an appointment, I finally asked if there was a charge for them to come out. I was told it was $89 which I would appreciate if they would've told me without me having to ask. I continue to ask more questions, and it turns out that the $89 fee does not go toward the repair, and in the event that they can't do the repair which is quite possible with this kind of thing, they will still charge the $89 fee. I did not make the appointment and I have a feeling that the negative reviews are correct. I'm glad I didn't continue with this company.

We live in an old house and during one of the storms last December part of the power in house went out. Our Tech Lamar did an inspection and gave us 3 options but was very honest about the possible outcome of each. Being that we are in a tight budget (like everyone) we opted for the 2nd option. Yes, it was pricey, but we needed peace of mind that our electricity will work especially that I work part time from home. Lamar and another tech came back the next day and fixed the problem. 6 months later, the same issue happened. I was thinking the worse and that we'd have to pay more money and I was even thinking that I'd have to get a 2nd job. I called them on Monday morning, and Lamar came before 930am. I was expecting the worse and he told me that the issue was covered under warranty and no payment was needed. I am extremely appreciative of his service. Lets be honest, no one likes to pay a large amount of money to get services done, but power and water is a necessity that we all need to live. I am very happy with their services. I am grateful for Lamar, but most of all I'm happy that my power is back on. Thank you!!!!

I needed a floodlight installed and contacted Epress Electrical based on 2.8k GOOGLE reviews and 4+ rating. Should have known the reviews were fake. Omar came to my home & was very personable and discussed my options to get a new line to where the floodlight would go. After checking my breaker panel, came back & told me it needed to be moved, and upgraded. Said he would give me 2 quotes, one for floodlight only & one for floodlight & panel. Never gave a quote for floodlight only & panel would be nearly $17,000. Before showing me the quote he asked me ""are you ready?"" and said ""don't get upset"" etc. Then kept talking about how they will warranty the work, blah, blah, blah. Right away he gave a 20% discount, because he said he liked me LOL. It wasn't an emergency so I decided I should get other quotes because the whole thing didn't feel right. Glad I came here to confirm these guys are ridiculous!!! Frosting on the cake=the night after Omar left, my house wasn't cooling down. It was 85 that day. I thought it was weird because it had been working just fine. Next night same thing. Fan is running, everything is good, but no cooling. So I call my HVAC company, and the technician tells me the only thing that was wrong is the breaker was off at the panel!!! Cost me $155 to find out Omar flipped it off & never turned it back on. RUN from this company. They are BAD NEWS!

Jay was prompt and professional quoted us a house rewrite and panel upgrade job at $18,900. When technicians showed up they upsold and tried to charge us the full amount we were approved for. We settled at a price of $22,000. Although the installation was done in less time then they had initially quoted, the walls they broke and the stucco patch they installed was very poor quality. Every time it rains we have to repaint areas water leaks due to their poor patch work. Been calling for weeks now to have it repaired and have just been given the runaround. Very impressive first impression and extremely horrible follow up service.

It was nice to have another electrician show me and explain to me in great detail what a poor job was done at my house by Express Electrical and why the $2,000 that I spent was an absolute rip off. Please choose another electrician for your needs.
