    I had some outlets which weren't working in my kitchen.  They came by at the time they promised and found the short within 1 minute of being there.  They are fast, friendly, affordable and get the job done right.  If you need electrical work done and dont want to electrocute yourself give them a call.

    I've now had two 5-star yelp-rated drywall companies stand me up, so I started thinking about my Ace review and realized I should give them 3 stars vs. 2 because they at least did not stand me up!  Already wrote about one drywall company.  Review for 2nd crappy company is coming soon.  3-stars = "A-OK", so Ace is A-OK for at least showing up.

    I called Ace Electric based on their good yelp reviews. My problem was one of the circuits in my living room - the outlets and switches in 2 of the living room walls, ex had been experiencing intermittent failure for the past year or so. They finally went out completely recently. Ace is the third electrician I have had look at this.

    The first one was the homesellers electrician that did repairs after the pre-purchase inspection. He fixed some reverse polarity issues and did not find any faults.

    The 2nd repairman was called out by the Home Warranty company after I experienced the problem described above. They did find an outlet that was a little melted. It had overheated. they fixed it which restored electricity along the whole circuit that was out but did not offer any reasonable advice or explanation on the cause, how to prevent it in the future, etc.

    Finally, this most recent time, I went to Yelp and found Ace Electric. I contacted them via their web form and received a call from them the next morning. They had me briefly describe the problem, quoted me an inexpensive hourly rate and estimated time to fix, and we scheduled them for the following afternoon.

    Ray from Ace Electric came out today and fixed the issue (aluminum wiring on some of the sockets overheating). It cost less than I had anticipated and I could tell from his description of the issues, causes, and how to prevent issues in the future, that he was being honest with me and also knows his trade well. He even offered up some advice on our battle with fleas we are dealing with  after he overheard us talking about it, as he had recently battled them at his home. Great guy and great company.

    Over the course of a few months, half of our downstairs area would periodically go dark. This, of course, would happen right when my husband and I would be doing something that required electricity...like watch the season finale of Dexter.

    Argh.

    The last time this happened, the lights didn't go back on right away. In fact, they didn't come back on at all. So I checked around yelp and found Ace Electric. I left them a message since I called before business hours and they called me back right away. A very nice electrician named Gus came by the house and figured out the problem fairly quickly (poor electrical work during a previous remodel in the kitchen). The job wasn't a common issue, but he knocked it out in less than 2 hours and cleaned up everything as if nothing had happened. He even had to open up a small hole in the kitchen wall, but he patched it up just fine. I also thought the price for the repairs were very reasonable and they even offer deals on their website. Make sure to check it out before you call.

    If I need an electrician again, I know who to call. Thank goodness for Ace Electric. And...thank goodness for Netflix and DVR's.

    I read the positive reviews on Yelp and thought I'd give Ace a try. I had two ceiling fans installed in my home by Eric. Eric was great. He did the job on time and on budget. We even got $50 off for mentioning Yelp. I would definitely use Ace again.

    I found this place on Yelp and am so happy I did.
    I needed help rewiring some of my outlets to light switches, changing outlets, and fixing the my bathroom tube light banister (if that's what it's called).

    They were timely.
    The electrician explained everything in as much detail as I wanted.
    He took an estimate, very reasonably priced and stuck to it.
    He completed his work efficiently and gave me additional advise on keeping my home safe.

    Lastly, he gave me the discount they offer on their website just for the asking.

    I was very happy with them.

    Eric was great - very professional, cleaned up when he made a mess.  I will use this company again but only with Eric. Thank you Eric for all your help and finding our electronic problem.

    Very efficient. They got in, got it done, got out. Simple as that. No streching it out, no nonsense, no extra charges, no cheesey sales. The family room looks nice and light now, exactly what we needed. A clean cut job. We'd call them again.

    Unfortunately, I'm going to buck the 5 star trend, but overall I am pretty happy.  I managed to lose all of the lights in our master bedroom after trying to run a space heater and plasma tv concurrently.  I e-mailed Ace and Victor was prompt with setting up the appointment.  He informed me beforehand that it would cost $95/hr for troubleshooting, plus materials.  The electrician showed up promptly on time and was cheerful throughout despite my problem being a pain in the ass to fix.  Took about 3 hours, plus a  trip to Lowe's (which they don't charge for).  So all in all, 4 hours out of my day and $341 later, everything's good as new.  Maybe I'm just a cheap sourpuss, but the $95/hr seemed a little steep.   I did know about it beforehand, just not how long it would take.

    I actually came across ACE Electric on yelp while reading horror stories about another electrical company that I had intented to use and am SO happy that I found them!  They were very professional and accommodating, working around my schedule and explaining all of the options with no pressure.  The work was completed in a timely manner and the price was very fair, less costly than I had expected.  The installers, Eric and Earl were great, very friendly and we even talked about another project.  I highly recommend this company.

    I needed to get a new electrical circuit placed in my garage but I work all week.  Called up Ace Electric and was able to get a Saturday appointment for an estimate.  I was given a 1 hour window for the appt. (not too bad).  Got a call on Saturday to verify the appointment and met Gus the electrician.  He was able to estimate out the project on various possible configurations.  I went with a simple job that placed the plug near the electrical box which he could do right away!  20 minutes later, the job was done.  Perfect for me as I just could not wait multiple weeks to get it done.  Work was done cleanly and professionally.  I would definitely call them again for any electrical work.

    I was very impressed with the work done by Ace Electric.  I got set up an appointment via the website for the next day and the electrician (Ray) arrived exactly when they said he would.  I needed him to find/fix a short in the wiring in the house.  He found it quickly and fixed it quickly and did a good job of explaining everything.  He also helped to explain the California and Irvine city electrical codes.  The price quoted was right on the spot.  I HIGHLY recommend this company if you need electrical service work.

    Just had technician Raymond come out to my condo to replace a noisy bathroom vent fan and our non-working doorbell.  Simple things, but he did it perfectly and quickly.  And I thought the price was reasonable.  Great, knowledgeble guy with good experience he was telling me about, despite his somewhat young age.  I will definetely use them in the future for all my electrical needs, and I'll ask for Raymond.  Thanks Ace.

    i recently decided to change out my old fluorescent kitchen lights to recessed lights. i called around and got quotes from 3 different places. ace wasn't the cheapest, but the people were easiest to talk to and the prices seemed reasonable. i'm really happy i went with them! they were prompt about returning my calls, understood exactly what i wanted, and arrived on time. they're licensed and have a lot of experience; they asked a lot of questions i hadn't thought of to make sure i got exactly what i wanted. my lights turned out great and my kitchen looks so much better.

    i highly recommend them and would use them again.
