John Watson Electrician

Wow.

Came home today -- half my home was out of power. Looked on Yelp and called John. Left a message. I thought it would cost me a bundle.

Within 45 minutes he returned my call. Patiently stayed with me on the phone for about 30 minutes as he talked me through a diagnosis: It was probably a power company issue, he said.

I tried to pay John for his time but he would have none of it.

Put in a call with the Edison number that John gave me. They put in a priority service call. Within a few hours, about 9pm, an Edison service man came and fixed it. All for free.

Make no mistake, I will call John next time I need an electrician. In fact I'm thinking up a few upgrade jobs for him to do!

Wow.

John Watson saved me a lot of money today.. He is the kinda of person who does not only knows his stuff but you can sense he loves helping people.. it's always nice to have someone like John Watson to ask for help from.. cuz you know he is just not doing it for money.. but he also sincerely loves to help people in needs. Will definitely recommend John Watson for all my friends and neighbors electrical needs. Thumbs up!

John was GREAT! We had a dead outlet for quite some time, but with baby about to walk all over this place, we knew we needed to fix the outlets soon so..well, so our baby didn't get zapped.
John told us he would be here at 4:30 and showed up right on time. Helping hubby take down the large TV to look, fixed that dead outlet in no time and fir a very reasonable price. He was super sweet to our baby(he has some grandkids), our two pups who were crazy interested in him (he has a few dogs), and even teased me for seeing me play CandyCrush (shut it - don't you judge me!) And texted his daughter to see what level she was on. Lol.
So...all in all....fast, affordable service with a smile.

A real old school Professional that I have no problem what so ever in commending him to others. In that he answers his phone in a timely manner, makes reasonable promises and THEN KEEPS THEM!!!! That & the man showed up ON TIME, then fixed a minor problem for us and did not charge a fortune.

I have used John Watson a couple of times. The first time was a small minor job, but most recently he installed the wiring for my new Jacuzzi. I called and left a message on Sunday and he called me back Monday morning. He was over to my home the next day to assess what was needed and explain to me his approach. I gave him the date/time that the Jacuzzi was going to be delivered. He had everything in place and had Chris his assistant there at the house waiting for the delivery. Everything went perfectly! I'm very pleased.

Quick response time. Great for small businesses. He fixed some outdoor lighting at my bar and did an awesome job.

He is a Kings fan as well, which goes a long way.

UPDATE:
I called John back and had him give us a bid on a lot more work because obviously I was so happy with him! Even though his bid came in REALLY high, we liked him and were just going to let him do the work anyway. We agreed to his bid and then had to wait for a bit in order to come up with the money to do the agreed upon work, which was fine with him because he said he suddenly got really busy. When we were ready to set up a start date, both my husband and myself emailed him several times to get the project going, and we NEVER heard back. It was so strange! We kept trying to reach him, and asking whether we had done something wrong, etc., but just no response. It was very weird. He had been over a couple of times with his guys to make sure to give us a fair bid, but then suddenly just disappeared. He just never ever responded to us ever again! We ended up finding another electrician, that we have been working with since then (who actually did a great job for 1/2 the price! ). So sad! Was looking forward to working with him again, but I guess we were just meant to be ships passing in the night.....

John is here now installing a 220 - NEMA outlet in my carport to charge my Tesla S - both he and his assistant have great attitudes. He came on time and is doing great work.

John is great find. We thought we needed a new panel installed (which costs about $2500 so it's good potential business). He came out the same day I called him and talked us out of replacing the electrical panel. The problem was something else but I bet 8 out 10 electricians would've gone with the flow and replaced the box. Instead, he did some diagnostics and pointed us in the right direction (a/c unit). Very honest and trustworthy. We will be keeping his number handy. Honest service is hard to come by nowadays.

In one of the episodes of Seinfeld, Jerry says that he always wishes for a doctor who would tell him ""get out of here!"" A doctor who would see that the patient is okay and would send him home without expensive treatment and a large bill. John Watson is that guy. I had a strange problem and although I do a lot of work around the house myself, I couldn't figured it out. I called John (he was already highly recommended) and he, after listening to me, explained a couple of possible problems. I almost insisted on him coming anyway and he said he could come immediately, but he also suggested that I check at least one thing before he comes. Well, I did and all is fine now. That's the electrician that Jerry Seinfeld would like, too.
