Stanford Electric

Very honest and prompt. I am saving their contact for all my electrical needs in the future. If you need electric work look no further. Other company's charging me in the hundreds and misdiagnosing the issue. Stanford Electric are true professionals who solved my headache problem of not working outlets seamlessly. Thank you!!

Needed an outdoor light installed. Douglas responded quickly and sent josh out to help us. He did great work and was very professional. Highly recommend these guys:

We had a power outage on our street that lasted all day. When the juice came back on, only half of our house has electricity. Standford Electric was dispatched to our home. I called them in the morning; they were at our home by the afternoon. Two men. They located the problem (blown main circuit breaker), replaced it and were in and out in less than an hour. Excellent work; very responsive. Highly recommended. I read some of the negative reviews on Yelp and disagree with them. I had an excellent experience.

I called Stanford Electric to finish the job that my previous electrician could not finish and I'm glad I did. Stanford Electric, Doug, is very affordable, personable and knowledgeable. Communication is spot on. I upgraded my outlets to Decora, changed out the front porch light, added a back porch light and they had to run electrical under the sliding door. I highly recommend Doug and Doug. Thank you.

Douglas runs a great operation and if you want a skilled professional at a very reasonable rate, Stanford Electric is always my first call. Highly recommend!

Unprofessional, no sense of responsibility or urgency. I waited 1 month for them to do a small simple job, canceled on me 2 times, said they don't own even a paint brush to touch up a lil dry wall they would work on. This guys calls you at 9pm at night thinking it's still work time to ask you questions about the job they have already seen at your house 2 times. I still gave them a chance to actually do the job until I waited hours for them to show up which they didn't, then decided to call and cancel to save my house and my wallet. So many strike outs! Be aware! I'm not one to waste my time with reviews, but these guys really wasted my time, big time. Hopefully this review will help these guys get their acts together to become more successful.

I am new to the area and may not be the most talented DIY woman but after getting the run around, being quoted ridiculous numbers to hang a straight forward pendant light with its already installed ceiling wires and prewired dimmer switch -- All I was asking was for a fair shake and a decent job. I got that with Stanford Electric.

I reached out via Yelp messenger and Douglas responded via email and phone promptly. I explained what I needed and he quoted me $100/hr saying that if the job took less than that time, we could work together to prorate. Finally, some common sense! I emailed him pictures of the existing area and also what my light looked like and he assured me we could get the job done the same day or the next day at the latest.

When the electrician, Josh, showed up at the end of the same day I called, he was pleasant, he did a neat job so as not to create/leave a mess, he measured and asked me if I needed any final adjustments once the light was up, I paid him via Zelle, and we were done in less than an hour.

Pendant light cost me $75; install was $75 which compared to other quotes was fair all-around. Other companies' quotes in the surrounding area and online came in at twice that ($140-225). Really?! I was willing to return the light and forget about the whole thing had I not found someone reasonable/reliable to install it. I would recommend Stanford Electric and should the need arise, I would use them again. Thank you

Douglas came to my elderly parents' house in San Marcos on Memorial Day weekend and quickly fixed their worn out plugs. He responded quickly and called ahead when he was delayed on the previous job. He was patient and explained his work, and charged a VERY reasonable price. He also came back to put in a new circuit for my parents' second refrigerator, again at a very resonable price. I would definitely call them again.
