Makena Electric is a miracle worker! The entire front part of my home was without power. Another contractor told me they would have to cut holes in the ceiling of the entire first floor of my home to run a new wire for thousands of dollars. I sought a second opinion from Makena over the weekend, and I was promptly provided a reasonable estimate and a Monday morning appointment. Andre was very professional and kindly explained the inspection to me, step by step. He found a loose wire behind a light switch and restored power without having to cut a single hole in the ceiling or walls and charged an incredibly reasonable fee. I am so very thankful for the honest and reputable work of this local Huntington Beach company! I would recommend Makena Electric to anyone who is looking for an experienced and honest electrical contractor. Thank you Makena Electric!

I was having trouble finding a reliable electrician to fix a few issues at my house. I was referred to Makena by a friend and Andre the electrician got everything fixed very quickly and at a reasonable price. He’s been my electrician for a few years now and he always has great communication and is very prompt. I feel confident recommending Makena Electric to my friends. Great service!!!
