Greenline Electric

By far the most professional and honest electrician I have ever met! Punctual and professional too!

Mike was amazing. He explained everything he was going to do and walked me through the process patiently. On top of it his work was clean and all my recess lights were installed perfectly and were up to date with the latest LED models. Couldn’t have asked for a better electrician!

We called Mike out to take a look at our electrical problem, and while he did come the next day, that’s pretty much where the good parts of his service stops.
1– When describing the problem over the phone, I told him that we thought it was the circuit breaker. I, of course, am not an electrician, and had only mentioned a friend had looked at it and thought the same. Rather than, you know, run a diagnostic first, he was an hour late to the appointment because he went out part hunting rather than find out the problem first.
2– He spent 2+ hours of trying to diagnose the problem, and while he did find out the problem — an open neutral — he could not locate the source, and insisted he would have to go into the drywall to find the problem.
3– Now, he said he would have to go into the drywall, but he also said HE WOULDN’T DO THE JOB! He said his schedule was too busy, so some other people would have to come out and try and diagnose the problem and fix it.
4– But don’t worry, he said if someone put in the legwork and gave a cost estimate, he MIGHT be able to give us a lower price, if he could, but again — no guarantees.
5– Because he couldn’t fix the problem he gave us a «discount» — only $ 150 (a whole $ 25 off his normal rate!) for a whole lot of nothing.
So, all of this may not have been worth a 1 Star Review until… we hired another electrician. Who fixed the problem. In under an hour. No drywall was removed. No assumptions. Bonus — they said if they can’t find the problem during their diagnostics, they don’t charge (exorbitantly!) for their time. Mike, I’m sure you’re a good guy, but you can’t treat your customers like they’re your pawn, and try to send them off to other electricians who do your job for you, and hope that we come back. Would not recommend to anyone, ever,

What a great guy. Mike has helped in more ways that I can express. For a small business owner having Mike as a go to man for my electrical needs is great.

Mike is a very efficient and knowledgeable electrician. He provided us a reasonable estimate and completed job the before schedule. If you want an honest electrician, don’t waste time, call Mike at Greenline first.

Mike came out to fix an outlet for me and ended up also fixing a few other electrical issues and then installed the AC unit I needed it for as extra! Very nice guy and highly recommended!

mike was an honest and hard working. he did a great job! he also didn’t want us to use him for the other electrical work since he said a handyman can do the job and save us a lot of money. Thanks mike! we will definitely use you again

Although Mike was nice, his work was not so much…
We had some electrical work done in our kitchen which also included installing 10 4″ recessed lights. The regular work was good but Mike had hand cut the circular holes for the recessed lights which means they were not perfect 4″ circles. We were left with irregular gaps around the lights looking into the attic.
When I told Mike of the problem, he said that we need to get a painter to patch and paint his holes. I refused and asked Mike to check for circular covers to go around the lights to cover the holes… 3 weeks later… I called Mike to remind him of the covers. He said he had forgotten to check and that they were going to be 6.95 each. I again explained that this was his fault and that he should pay for the covers due to horrible cutting. He agreed to pay for them.
5 weeks later… Still no covers just gaps in my ceiling… I left a message for Mike with no call back…
I guess I’ll find a painter to patch and paint my holes…
Too bad because like I said Mike seemed like a nice guy…

Mike is really solid. Had him do some minor electrical around the house. Very efficient and quick to reply.

We had Mike come out to replace an old outlet and a couple of light fixtures recently. He made the 1.5 hr trip all the way from Burbank out to Manhattan Beach and showed up exactly on time. We have an older house and Mike explained why the outlet and light fixtures were out of date and needed replacing. His was very professional, thorough, and efficient. We were very happy with his work and would definitely recommend him to others.

I found Greenline electric on Craigslist under Burbank Electricians which I know can be a crapshoot with all the choices that pop up.
I decided to call Mike the Owner of Greenline because he was a Burbank Resident and I figured it would make the travel easy for the estimate.
I called mike around noon to get a estimate for ceiling light fixtures I wanted to get installed and he personally came over for the estimate within two hours.
I felt Mike gave a fair price for the job and we agreed to set it up for the following morning.
Mike showed up on time and ready to work.
I was really happy with the work and he even installed a light socket that I was having problems with at no extra charge.
I highly recommend Mike for any electrical issues you may have!
