La Costa Electric

I'd identified a bad breaker to the Kitchen. Had smelled smoke and could hear a sizzling noise in the wiring. La Costa Electric arrived the same day to effectuate repairs. They arrived early and did a great job as shown in the attached photos. They have my highest recommendation!

La Costa Electric is fantastic. They returned my call quickly and diagnosed the problem and fixed it right away. I will definitely use them in the future for any other electrical repairs.

I have worked with many electricians as a property manager and never have I been more impressed than I was when Lou with La Costa Electric visited my home this past week. He was prompt, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He was clean cut in a logo polo shirt and I felt very safe having him in my home. He replaced and repaired a couple of outlets for a decent price. I am having him come back to install landscape lighting and for all future electrical needs.

Brock answered our request within minutes. After explaining to Brock what needed to be down he said he would call back. He did call back and carefully explained that because of code he would not be able to handle our request. So although unable to use his services I really appreciated his honesty. The next time I need an electrician, I will call La Costa Electric first.

We needed a new chandelier installed at our home, so I did some research on electricians in the area. I'm glad I landed on these guys. From the beginning, it was easy to work with Brock to get a quote and set up a time (they were even able to do it the next day). I compared prices with a few other electricians in the area and they were the best. Brock came with his son Lou and they took extreme care to make sure they removed the other chandelier correctly and install the new one at the right height - even asking if I was OK with the length after the installation. What really set these guys apart was that I had been having some issues with 2 dead sockets in one of our rooms and they were also able to help figure out that problem and get it fixed as part of the fee for the chandelier. Luckily it wasn't a major issue, but was definitely something we needed to have fixed. I will call Brock and Lou again if I ever needed an electrician and will recommend them to anyone.

I needed three wired smoke and CO detectors installed the same day I called. Why the same day? To complete an appraisal of my home done that day. Brock and Son were extremely accommodating. I called about 1 PM. Son was there promptly at 2:30 PM as they said they would be. Job was done within an hour. I was charged a very reasonable amount. I was very pleased with their service. I will use them for any future electrical work.

Wow. I am so disappointed. I read the outstanding reviews of this company on Yelp, so I was looking forward to hiring Brock to do some electrical work on the new house we just bought in San Marcos. He responded promptly to my digital request with both an email and a phone call. But as I began explaining the items we needed help with, which included an outdoor electrical box for our broken irrigation controller, and before I could finish explaining in my laymen's terms what I thought was needed, he interrupted me and responded in a condescending tone that he didn't do that sort of thing, in a way that made me feel stupid for asking. I really felt like he thought I was wasting his time. He also quoted such high prices that I would be a fool to hire him, which was his goal it seemed. I was so upset I was shaking, and I told him so. His response was to tell me that I was wrong, that he had done nothing wrong, and that the call was recorded. Again, wow. I am sure that he is a good electrician, since he has so many good reviews, but he won't be coming to my house, that's for sure. I am sure that Brock will write a good defense of himself here on Yelp, but trust me when I say that he didn't act like someone who wanted to help us with our electrical needs.

Today I had Brock and his team (family supported) do a ROCK-STAR job on installing a ceiling fan that needed wiring as well as an install. While they were working I remembered my fan in the master shower wasn't working - they ran the ladder back up and took a look (come to find out it is a SUPER silent fan and it was twirling away. They stated $25 for the look into it which was more than fair. It was a fast job so he wasn't going to tack the $25 on. What business do you know does that!!! I insisted. Brock and his team are professional, kind and courteous. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them and will use them again if I am ever in the need for electrical work.

La Costa Electric is a great family-run business and I would recommend these guys to everyone in need of an honest, knowledgeable, and professional electrician. When they came out to my home last week they were upfront and identified the problem with the outlets in my kitchen in no time! Very professional and prompt service. Thank you!!!!!!

I used LCE this past week. These guys are good. Not only did they help clean-up the electrical mess left behind by the handyman (who obviously was in over his head), they helped me to identify and fix a last minute switch that I threw into the mix. They were knowledgeable, friendly, quick and reasonably priced. Will certainly use them again!
