Recommended Customer Reviews

I don't usually give reviews but Ira did such a good job I have to give credit where credit is due.
OMG..... AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME...Ira Robinson from Kestrel Electric came to my home and worked ALL day on Christmas Eve to repair an ongoing electric problem I have had for YEARS now. He didn't stop until he found and repaired EVERYTHING... AND his price ( about 1/3 the price) was so much better than any other electrician I have called over the past 3 years. If I have any other electrical issues I will give Ira Robinson ALL of my business. He is great at what he does and more than fair with his charges.
My electric bill has been running extremely high for the past 3 years. I will give an update to how much my bill goes down once I get a full month bill after the repair.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERY ONE.... I just got my Christmas gift, electric that works correctly... :-)

Ira flaked. He couldn't remember our appointments and then didn't show up to the appointment even after I had texted him to remind him. I don't know if his work is good or not, but he definitely wasted my time and I had to find and hire another electrician. Can't recommend

I hired Kestrel Electric because the lights on my ceiling fan would not turn on. Ira came out and looked at my fan and fixed it the same day. He also offered and went to Lowes for me so I could continue using a remote control with my ceiling fan that had also stopped working. He was efficient, friendly and pleasant and most importantly his pricing was very reasonable. You wont be disappointed with hiring kestrel electric.

I called Kestrel Electric with an unusual request to replace all the circuit breakers in my electric panel as part of preventative maintenance since our house is close to the beach and everything rusts and erodes. Ira responded very quickly to my request and scheduled a trip to visit my home in order to provide and accurate estimate. Ira's price was very reasonable.
Ira showed on the day of our appointment to complete the work. When he took the panel apart and began his work, he realized it needed extra work. Rather than just replacing the breakers as many others would have, he took the time to take the panel apart and clean everything. I appreciated that he did not ask to be paid more than what he had originally quoted despite the extra tedious work. We felt compelled to pay him more because of the exceptional work he performed at our home and how meticulous he was.
If you need an experienced electrician, be sure to contact Ira. You will not be disappointed!

After contacting Affordable Electric and West Side Electric, which were both very rude, Kestrel Electric came to our home to change two light fixtures and re-wire a light fixture. Ira was very professional. Does great work at a reasonable price. He is now our to go electrician for any electrical work. We highly recommend him.

Ira beautifully install bathroom fan and recessed lighting.
His guidance & expertise was greatly appreciate.
He is an experienced Electrician and a great person. That's a Win win.

Ira was the best electrician I could have found, he provided excellent, professional, affordable, rapid and thorough service. I called him to do an emergency call for my elderly grandmother, he promptly arrived on a holiday at no additional cost, and he gave us a free estimate. He spent an ample amount of time to thoroughly and professionally diagnose her electrical problem, and he fixed her problem, at a very affordable cost. We were so pleased with his diligence and we would highly recommend him, as we have him saved as our go to electrician for any future needs. He was worth every cent....this is value for your money.

Ira came when we needed him to check up on a problem we were having even though it was late. When it ended up not being anything to be concerned about he didn't even charge us.

First time using Kestrel Electric. Very happy with the services that was performed. Ira offered trouble shooting without any fees. When the issue was not resolved, he came out and spent 2 hrs. of his time but only charges for an hr. of service. He was honest, polite, professional and is very knowledgeable. I have recommended Kestrel Electric to friends/family. I will definitely will call upon Ira if ever I am in need of an electrician.

Ira communicated well, did an outstanding job and we will use Kestrel Electric in the future. 5 stars and highly recommended. As the owner of a property management company I have nothing but good things to say. Great job Ira- Rincon Property Management.
