Ms Sparky Electric

I recently got a Tesla and needed a 14-50 outlet installed, so I got quotes from multiple companies including Ms Sparky, who came in cheapest (and a friend had recommended to me). I emailed with Mary (the owner) directly and coordinated with her. This was a little frustrating because initially she said I needed a 60 amp breaker when it should be 50 as far as I know for a 14-50 outlet-- I pointed this out and she changed it to 50 amp. Her original quote was about $500 off of what the actual cost ended up being too, probably because of quoting just off my pictures. So no biggie on that.

But when the tech came to do the install he was expecting my panel to be right next to where I wanted the outlet and that was not the case. Also the breaker they ordered wasn't the right one. In order to make room they'd need a combination breaker instead. Again, this was frustrating a little because I had sent pictures of my panel to Mary already so I thought they would've seen what needed to be ordered. Tech also said it's a two person job not one, and he'll need another person. He was reluctant at first to run the wiring through attic like I wanted but I finally convinced him the attic is spacious and open enough. He called Mary and got a better quote number and said they'd let me know when they can come back to install.

About five days later got an email back saying they were ready to install again. Got it scheduled and a two person crew came out and took care of it. Ran the wiring and outlet exactly where I wanted it, and everything looked great to me. And my Tesla charges beautifully now. So in the end, I'm happy with the result but getting there felt a little more difficult than it should've been.

We had Mary with Ms. Sparky come out to address and quote us on two things. 1) fix an outside GFI outlet and 2) move some things around in the bathroom for a remodel. She was nice at first and gave us a quote. We hired them and she sent out Aldo, whom was nice, knowledgeable and knew the scope of work and did it with no issues. When he finished the first part, he said he would come back and put the lights up and do the outside GFI. In the meantime, Mary sent us an invoice and asked us to pay the entire thing. I then asked her twice in 36 hours when they could come back and finish the work and we did not hear anything. Then thinking maybe if I paid it, she would respond. Well, she did. I paid the entire bill (which I regret!) then she finally said she couldn't finish the job until the next week (which was the not the agreement). She then came out herself to put three bathroom lights up the same week. She was mad! She was not nice the entire time. She stomped around, was slamming stuff in the bathroom, then we heard glass breaking and a slough of curse words, sighs, etc. She dropped the light globe. She stomped out and said she would get another one.
After that, she refused to come back and finish the outside job despite us paying for it. She claims it was not on the quote, but the quote states two GFIs and they only did one. She clearly went outside to see the project, Aldo was clear on it and she also states that she will be back over to finish it. Both her and Aldo clearly understood the outside was in the scope of work! It was not even about the costs or the timing, but how rude she became rude and she tried saying the scope of work was not on the quote and that we were difficult. This is not how you treat customers.
She was very nasty with her tone, she was yelling and the energy she gave off was really bad. We didn't want her back in our house after that... I understand these are hard times, but she cannot take her problems out on customers. We had five other contractors we worked with and all were amazing to work with. I do not recommend he and think she is lacking ethics.

Recently got an electric vehicle and needed a NEMA 14-50 outlet to be installed. My car manufacturer had a list of electricians recommended to me. I called and spoke to a bunch of them; and did not get a good feeling about them. Then I spoke with Mary over at Ms. Sparky electric and she was very straightforward; made the whole process extremely easy. If you are getting an electric vehicle of any kind and need a 14-50 outlet installed with little to no hassle, give them a call!

This team had been top notch throughout the project. I had a long 220 run for a jacuzzi in the back yard. It's not an easy job. They've done great work in both quoting fairly, and having enough people on hand to get the job done. Everyone has been great onsite and I'm happy to have them working at my house. The quality of work is high and done cleanly. I'm very satisfied and would highly recommend.

I am absolutely thrilled with the work that was done! Zach, one of Ms Sparky's electricians was prompt, professional, and meticulous in everything that he did! I highly recommend this business!

Ms sparky to the rescue. SDGE installed new power line, swapped wires and electrocuted our home. Ms Sparky Electric rearranged their whole schedule and fit us in because, as they said, emergencies involving safety come first. They did what they needed to and will be returning. Thank you for your help and professionalism. A great local company I won't hesitate to call on again.

I needed a breaker replaced that controls my ceiling heat.
Zach came out and finished quickly and efficiently.
Great price also!
I recommend this company.

On a recommendation from a friend, got a quick bid from Ms Sparky, & a few days later, on time for the appointment, a crew of (2) young guys installed (3) ceiling fans including all assembly & electric runs. Excellent work, at the agreed on price.

Mary showed up at our home. We spent an hour reviewing what had to be done. She left promising to send a detailed estimate - never heard from her again. Very unprofessional. If she couldn't do, or didn't want to do the job it would've been nice to have been told that. So...waste

We needed 18 new electrical circuits run in a commercial greenhouse building at the San Diego Botanic Gardens in Encinitas. It needed to be done quickly and for a fixed price. Ms. Sparky and team handled the whole job from filing permits to final inspection and customer sign off. They did a great job and were fun to work with. I highly recommend Ms. Sparky.
