Recommended Customer Reviews

Ashley is amazing! She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed to get our Panel and EV Charger permitted and inspected properly. I did not have to chase anyone to get this done as she was very proactive and I felt she truly cared about us as clients. Highly recommend and the guys that installed the unit were also very friendly and professional.
Overall this has been a great experience.

Gerhard Electric was once Mr Electric but they gave up their franchise and they are now going by the name Gerhard Electric. I had used Mr Electric several times and I was both satisfied with their service and the cost for those services. Yesterday they came to plug in five smoke alarms for me and the total job required nothing more than plugging in five smoke alarms to existing plugs and the entire job took less than thirty minutes and the charge was $298.00. Fair warning, get a price before you allow Gerhard Electric to even make a call to your home as the technician told me that $298.00 was their minimum charge for any call and the cost for any work done goes up from there. This job did not require an electrician at all but I called on Gerhard only because the instructions given with the new smoke detectors recommended that an electrician install new ""wired"" smoke detectors which we have in our home.

Thank you Mark, Chris, David & Ashley....what a professional team from start to finish! Our home is close to 30 years old and had major wire/circuit issues. The major work was completed today and they did a thorough job!
Explained everything in detail and were especially kind and patient.
Highly recommend

Power went completely out at my home at 1:00am. Called Gerhard Electric at 5:00am and spoke with Mark. Per his guidance he essentially helped get my power restored by 8:00am. Reliable and trustworthy.

Tripped a breaker and couldn't get it reset this weekend. Called up Mark on Monday and he walked me through the reset without having to come out. I was hoping it was something simple and it ended up being so. Thanks Mark and will certainly use Gerhard for future electrical needs.

Mark Gerhard and his team helped me when I was in a bind to get my new office up and running. I needed telephone and internet cables dropped and terminated. Mark game planned and mapped out exactly what he was going to do and made some great suggestions which saved me money both immediately and in the long run. Thank you Gerhard Electric.

I've hired Mark a few times and I have to say he's the most professional, reliable, and trustworthy guy in the business. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing any type of electrical services.

Highly recommend this company! We found this company in the Saddleback Church Business Directory & recommend them to everyone! They came out on time, very respectful, professional and the price they gave us was UNbeatable! They do great work and go above & beyond your expectations! GERHARD ELECTRIC will be our one and only electric company from now on! LOVE them!

My husband hired this company to replace to a dimmer switch in our kitchen. We even had the part for him to install. The worker Danny, was there about 30 minutes or less and the final bill was 323.00. Really???? The work order has no detailed information written on it, which in this company's language means ""I ripped another one off"" This is a very dishonest company and I would absolutely not use them ever again. As a final blow, they installed the switch backwards!

From the first time we meet Mark we were imrpessed with both his knowledge and service. Since then we have used Mark for numerous jobs, from easy to complex, and he and his staff have always done a fantastic and complete job.
His team is profession, prompt, and very knowledgable in their craft. They do the work correctly the first time and they provide solutions and answers to your specific situation.
In the services business you get what you pay for. With that in mind they exceeded my expectations. In fact, Gerhard Electric provided me a complete and accurate billing that included the entire scope needed to complete the job accurately and it was both detailed and matched the initial estimate.
After using numerous electricians over the years and can say with complete confirdence that I would recommend Gerhard Electric to anyone who needs an honest and knowledgable electrician who works at the highest level of integrity and service.
Thank you Gerhard Electric!!
