Recommended Customer Reviews

A huge disappointment and waste of time. I spent an hour of my time in the morning to walk him through the electrical issues at our home. Our issue was this: An underground line running from the main panel down to the pool had corroded and was therefore shorting when it rained/flooded. This line ran under our driveway and snaked along the entire half perimeter of our property and would have been a fair amount of work. But I spent an talking about how to accomplish this and John seemed competent for the first half hour.
In the second half hour, it was apparent he was not someone with the most clearest of thought nor smoothest of processes. I'm not sure if this is because of age or outside stress in his life, but trailing off and talking to oneself out of earshot become a common theme. He unscrewed the cover to our main panel and promptly lost one of the screws saying he would replace it on his next visit. Our discussion concluded that he would send someone else from his company to do the actual work. No one called. I texted him to follow up and he ensured someone would call and that he was now currently in San Diego which relieved himself of further responsibility.
I think John might be good for small run of the mill electrical work around the house. Those jobs which he can do right on the spot is perhaps what he's best for and cost effective for. I'm open for my assessment to change as he is smart enough to obtain a contractor license and has a livelihood to maintain. But currently, I personally will not recommend him.

John came to my house to fix an electrical problem with my outside flood lights. They haven't been working since I bought the house a year ago. He arrived promptly at 8am the morning after I called him and spent 3 hours diagnosing and fixing the problem. It was a very long circuit and he had to locate two shorts along the way (moving his step ladders over and over). He fixed the shorts, upgraded a main junction box and charged me half of what I would have paid.
TL;DR: Excellent workmanship at a shockingly low price.
