Johns Electric Troubleshooting

Cue Friday night… sitting down for a glass of wine, turn on your track lighting, and all of a sudden your switch sends off some sparks and your track lighting goes dark. Not quite the relaxing Friday night we were hoping for… I called John Saturday morning and he was able to come out on Sunday to look at the issue. Thankfully, he determined it was not a serious problem and was also able to help us fix some of the other small things we had been putting off until later. John did a great job and was very friendly. We are definitely using him for some future things we are planning to do at our place!

John is very knowledge electrician. He fixed my bathroom light problem within 5 mins. I am very happy with his service.

My bathroom vanity lights went out, so I called John on a Saturday morning. We needed the light to be fixed by Monday because we had company coming and I had dinner reservations on Saturday night. Not only did John fix our issue that day at a very reasonable price, he also made accommodations for our time constraints and he did it with a smile! I would absolutely recommend John for any electrical needs. He’s a very nice guy and extremely helpful!

John is great! I had him do a big job (putting in an extra fuse box). His rates were amazing and he was very professional. Definitely recommend. I do recommend texting him as the best way to hear back from him quickly.

Amazing work. Came the same day and helped troubleshoot a real head-​scratcher of an issue with a bathroom fixture. Ended up tracing the issue to a junction box and fixed everything up so it was working and SAFE. I’d recommend John for anything. Great guy, great value and really knows what he is doing.

John came incredibly quickly, and was friendly and professional. His rate was extremely reasonable, and he took great pains to solve the problem, regardless of the fact that it was a rather brisk Sunday evening.
I’d definitely recommend him to anybody having an indeterminate electrical issue, with no reservations.

WOW! John had my problem fixed within seven hours of contacting him.
There was an issue with an outdoor outlet (screwed up by a previous contractor) that ended up shutting down the electrical service in half my house. John listened to me and basically diagnosed the source of the problem right over the phone. He was able to stop by at the end of his workday and made the repair quickly and professionally.
I couldn’t be more happy.
This is TEN STAR SERVICE in a world of threes!

Great service, came within a few hours! Reasonable price for a job well done, can’t ask for more.

John came to fix my ceiling fan the same day I first contacted him. He was friendly and knowledgeable. Price was very reasonable. Highly recommended.

This review is purely on «non response» I had contacted this service on 9/​10, initially by phone, and per his vm, it said to better reach him, do so via text. I then sent a text same day. No reply or acknowledgement. I prefer to deal with a business who at least responds to the customer, even if they are too busy to do the job or estimate. I don’t know how his service is, but again this 1 star review is only due to lack of response.

They are magical. My garage circuit breaker blew and would not flip back to on. I texted John about it and he responded same day with a series of questions about my problem. Within 5 minutes, VIA TEXT, we solved the problem. Cost to me? $ 0. That’s simply amazing from a number of perspectives: professional, ethical, and electrical :-)
Above everything else, what I learned is this: if you need an electrician you can *trust*, call John.

We have had a couple of really GREAT experiences with John. He’s communicative, arrives when he says he will, is friendly, professional, and know his stuff. He’s hooked up the electric for our new A/​C system, exterior outlets for the house, and, most recently, our new dishwasher. Always friendly, always reasonably priced. Cannot emphasize enough how happy we are with his service; you can’t go wrong with John P.

John installed a ceiling fan for me in my old home with questionable wiring. He gave an estimate via email, was easy to arrange an appointment with and was on time. The work took a couple hours and when he left the room was clean. I will definitely call him in the future if necessary.

John is fantastic! I was having an issue with one of the kitchen light fixtures not working in my condo in Chicago. Since I live in Los Angeles, John and I communicated via text, and he worked around my tenants’ limited availability. He determined the fixtures needed to be replaced. I had new fixtures directly sent to his home, and he installed the new fixtures. His pricing was unbelievably reasonable! And, he provided a great recommendation for an A/​C issue. He was responsive, communicative and very helpful! Can’t recommend him enough!

John is the best. Reasonable prices, excellent knowledge, super nice.
Handled several projects for me today, including the surprises that come with a 100 year old building (think 100 year old boxes, old gaslight pipes, and some shotty work leftover from the previous owner’s rehab). Found a few issues along the way that he took care of as he completed my projects.
Did fantastic work, excellent patching and cleanup, and genuinely cares about what he does. Also, very nice to my spaz of a dog.
I cannot recommend him enough. Really one of my best Unilocal finds to date.

We’ve used John’s services twice, once to fix our dishwasher connection and also recently to install an outdoor outlet. Both times he has come out to give an estimate the same day as my call and has completed the work within a day.
His workmanship is outstanding, prices are reasonable and he’s also a really lovely guy! Sometimes it’s hard to find genuine and honest tradespeople, we are really lucky to have found John!

Unilocal, you did me right! John is amazing. Friendly, professional, prompt! Just an awesome experience. I had an issue with a timer on my building, John came out on a Sunday and repaired the issue for less than half of what other Unilocal rated electricians were charging. This is my new go to electrician for my building and my home.

I can not say enough about how much we enjoyed working with John. John is patient, kind, punctual, affordable and one hell of an electrician/​detective.
He first came out to our house about a year ago to hang 2 chandeliers and mount our TV over our the fireplace. He gave us a free estimate at a time that was convenient with our work schedules which was far less expensive than the other 4 bids we received. He also advised on some of the missing parts we needed to buy prior to the install. When John ran into unexpected issues (our house is built in 1894) I was horrified that we wouldn’t be able to afford finishing the job but John didn’t give up and he didn’t increase his estimate, saying «it happens» and «we couldn’t have known unless we opened up the wall… it’s not your fault.» He stayed all day running a conduit through our very old walls and didn’t once complain. We’ve enjoyed our fancy fireplace mounted TV with over the past year and guests are always amazed that we were able to run 4 HDMI cords behind the wall, across the room, to a perfectly hidden bookshelf.
He came out again this week to investigate a non-​functioning ceiling light and was able to provide us with options and a workaround that allowed us to hang our new bedroom chandelier.
Highly recommend and plan to call John for all our electric needs in the future.

I absolutely couldn’t recommend anyone more than John! Around 5pm on a Saturday my breakers blew the entire house four times in an hour with no explanation. I randomly started calling Unilocal electricians and John was immediately responsive and here with the part I needed in under an hour! He’s incredibly friendly, professional, smart and gave me all the options, including the «cheap» fix and the way he would recommend. Best of all he hooked me up with a fix that will last until we can get it done properly! Best of all, his rate (which could/​should have been an after hours emergency rate) + parts was so reasonable.
100% recommend!

John was great. He came fast and was really knowledgeable. Highly recommended! He fixed our mid wiring and required a new lamp with a dimmer like we wanted to do and didn’t make us feel like morons for doing it incorrectly in the first place!
