Straight Line Electric

Grant L.

I used Daren, Kevin and team at my property in the Ventura Keys. They installed can lights throughout, vent fans in bathrooms, junction boxes for ceiling fans and more. They were honest, pleasant, hardworking, high integrity and GOOD at their job! I've already referred them to family who had the same experience. I am a local real estate agent and I constantly have clients asking for referrals for tradespeople. Straight Line is at the top of my list when homeowners call me. If you need the best electrician in Ventura County, and you want competitive pricing without getting jerked around, call Straight Line.

Was referred by a friend AND was very satisfied! I needed to add exterior outlets, replace a few fixtures in the garage/attic and take care of a ghetto/ potential problem power strip. Darren, Dillon and Victor were all very nice, clean and considerate. They showed up on time, were reasonably priced and had great communication! Would recommend to family and friends! Thank you guys!!

I personally did not call this company in (my rental company did) however, I've dealt with electricians in the past due to my own personal business and I would highly recommend their service and will be reaching out in the future if needed. Darren the owner is very pleasant and an attentive gentleman to work with as well as his son Dillion and his companion Victor! Job well done, thank you again for providing light back to my quirky home. You guys rock!

Darren had come out to replace a breaker last year. Everything worked great....until a couple of months ago. Then, strange things happened. I don't have lights on unless I really need them. But in my room, lights began flickering, the t.v. kept turning off, and then on, off and on, my two lamps kept flickering on and off. Then half the outlets/plugs went dead. The outside lights went dead. It was getting weird. So I called, left a message that either my house was going to blow up or I had Poltergeist and ghosts habitating here. I'm sure the lady thougt I was a nut! But too many weird things were going on.
An employee of Darren's showed up, but he didn't quite get the whole ghost part. Then (thank goodness) Darren drove up. He remembered me and said he likes to service the customers he has helped previously. He said he'd check the breaker box first. He came back and said I had a burned out breaker, which he replaced. He assumed that was the end of it.
I said, ""oh no, we've got more going on."" I asked him to check the dead outlets in the other room. He checked one, and said, ""yep, no power"". Then he checked another one. Same thing no power. Then another and another. Over ten outlets had no power, the wiring was faulty, the switchplate was cracked...and on and on.
Long story short, Darren was there for 5 hours, testing and pulling out every bad outlet wires hanging, room by room, methodically. He was so nice, funny, we joked around. He replaced wiring, put new outlets in, new plates, put in missing bullbs, switched dimmers to regular switches, fixed the outside lights and wiring.
He undercharged me, I told him that. But a lot of stuff he did for no charge. He charged me for 3 hours of work. But he was there for 5 hours!
Just a nice, kind, cool guy who worked his butt off so I wouldn't have to worry about ghosts or lights going off and on and the t.v. shutting off and then coming back on.
Very professional, polite, respectful and honest. I recommend Straight Line Electric and Darren, the owner. I needed help asap - and he was there dedicated to fixing everything! Thanks Darren!

These guys are the best, we bought an old home with faulty wiring throughout. Straightline rewired the entire place to make it safe, under budget and ahead of schedule!

I made an apointment and two electricians came out on time and ready to fix our three problems. All three were done efficiently and correctly. Excellent service

We had to upgrade our ""box"" when we put in a new air and Heating system. As per usual, it was a lot of red tape with the city and 13 trips for someone to look at the same hole in the ground and wall. Darren was so great to work with; he was always available, always answered calls promptly, came on a moments notice when some guy showed up with a clip board and questions and did not ask for payment until the job was complete.
His professionalism and sense of humor ensure he will always be my top choice for electrical work. We have had no problems with any of the work that was done.
Straight Line made what could have been a stressful situation smooth and easy for me.

I've heard of Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison. I can change a lightbulb and flip a switch. Since that's all I know about electricity, I can be taken for a ride by an unscrupulous contractor.
I've used Straight Line a number of times over the years and can say that integrity is foundational to their business model.
When I called them to the house today I didn't know if I had a big problem or a little one. Turns out I didn't have much of a problem at all. Steve Jones checked everything thoroughly, answered all my questions, and gave me good advice. Though his having found nothing wrong was very valuable information to me, they didn't charge me for the service call.
In a world where there seems to be less and less good and more and more strife, it's nice to find people who do business like this.

Straightline installed a dimmer switch and hung a chandelier for me. They were quick, professional and did an excellent job. They even showed up early for the quote and installation. So glad I called Straightline Electric.

Great company! Just had an emergency electrical issue. A breaker went out on a condo project we were working on. It halted our work and would have been very costly to us but Straight line can out and fixed it in a jiffy. Very pleasant office staff and easy to communicate with. I am now a loyal customer.
