Just Electric

Technician showed up on time like he said and with a mask. Told us there's $89 fee just to come out and look. We agreed to that. My husband had done all the work of replacing 4 outlets that had lost power. The rest of the house had power except our bedroom, living room, & one outlet in my daughter's room. We troubleshooted every way to fix the problem ourselves. It was a Sunday & already spent 3 days on it. We decided to use The 'Quarterly Magazine. Just Electric had nice big ad & had 24/7 service.
I wish i has checked YELP! He estimated almost $700 just to find source of problem. He checked all the circuits, which one was connecting those that lost power but had electricity. He didn't have to go in the attic or under the house. He complimented my husband on replacing the outlets and just checked those and tightened up. He added two screws to one box that was worn out. He DID NOT replace anything. He was very knowledgeable but still said this visit was $550! He could lower to $500 if we had cash! Who carries that much cash?! We aren't wealthy if you saw our home. We said that's overpriced for just following up what my husband did and didn't repair anything. Got Fritz on the phone & he said he has all these costs and won't go lower that $500! We wrote a check and that was it.
They get one star for prompt service on a Sunday and the other for being knowledgeable. $300-400 would have been reasonable but they are very overpriced!

Basically, I wanted to have EVCS in my garage for my Model 3 Tesla. Unfortunately, my house is more than 60 yrs old and would require to have an upgrade of my electric panel, install a subpanel in the garage and finally install the Tesla Charge Station. Project took only three days and I couldn't be happier with the results. Mr. Pineda was very professional and transparent. I felt his prices where a little high but he was open to negotiation. And like any home project you come across issues that may not have been expected and will add to the cost. But when it comes to doing a great job, kept a clean work site, easy to communicate with; you get what you pay for. The final project was neat and clean, well organized and any concerns I had were immediately addressed. He even did a couple things he may have not usually do, but because I asked he complied and did it to make me happy. Mr. Pineda taught me a lot about hiring a contractor and what I should be looking for. He took care of obtaining permits and getting inspections done. I would recommend him highly to any of my friends and family. And if I have any further need to an electrician he will be the first one I will call.

Fritz is a racist crook. I called him due to loss of power. He came out and took the circuit panel apart. Then quoted $1200 to clean or 2000 to repair and 4000 to replace a 200 amp box. After not agreeing. He put the box back the way he found it then charged me $350. He was here less then a hour. He made a few comments after we turned down his prices. He mentioned how advertisement isn't cheap and how ""asians own multiple properties and drive nice cars but don't want to pay"".
If you don't agree to his prices, you will be overcharged ""for his time"".
I will report to Better Business Bureau.

BEWARE before calling him!.

I had a small job, just a ceiling fan needed to be changed out so I called Just Electric Services in Covina. I got a quote from them and less than 24 hours later Juan showed up and swapped out that ceiling fixture in about 30 minutes. He did what he said he would do, for the price he said he would do it for.

The tech showed up to my residence took of a device clamp it to the metal part of my dorbell. Then told me it would be $580 to fix. Not knowing that two sets of part were new. Then after declining the service he offered a lower price to replace old parts. At that point I told him no Thank you. Paid for the service call and he didnt give me my change !!!!
Thanks for the poor service.

Fritz and Sal are both incredible electricians! They can do anything electrical at a fair price. Moreover Fritz is a master electrician with over 25 yrs experience and he has integrity! He will stand behind his warranty's. As you are aware electricity is no game - nothing to play with. Call Fritz at Just Electric! He will perform the work for your peace of mind

I wouldn't recommend this company for anything. My neighbor had a bad breaker that needed to be replaced. After a $70 inspection fee, the electrician charged her $530 to replace one breaker. After making a few calls I was told the average cost is around $350. I called the company and asked them why they charged her $600 and the person that I was talking to started getting rude. When I confronted him about his attitude, he said that I was giving him a attitude because I questioned the price. When he finally got around to being civil, he said that it's the cost of doing business in California, that's why we charged her $600. To me, they took advantage of a elderly lady. They also said that they wouldn't warranty the repair. Really? They charged $600 and won't warranty the repair!

I leave 5 stars because last night our power went out in our apartment during this coronavirus shelter in place madness. And it was really really hard to find anybody to make it out after hours. I spoke with Frank and he sent an electrician named Juan over to our house (he drove pretty far to get to our apartment). Juan was able to restore power and thank goodness because we have a fridge stocked with food that would've spoiled during a food run time. It was $300, but electric work can be very expensive. At that point I could really give a fuck what it cost because it was one of the most stressful things having no power during a state of emergency. At the end of the day, these guys were like heroes to me last night, so 5 stars. In an emergency, it's not going to be cheap.

Fritz and his crew did a fine job laying under ground wiring to my garage from the house and properly connecting the garage door opener to power source. They also removed live wires and connectors to a recently removed spa. They worked both Saturday and Sunday and came back the following Saturday to resolve other power issues. Barbara V
