The short answer: Should you hire BeniteX? Yes. They're knowledgeable, communicative, and fairly priced, and they handle permits and utility coordination for you. I trust reviews more when they include the good and the bad, so here's both.

BeniteX replaced our 100A Zinsco panel, a known fire hazard, with a new 200A Siemens panel. Roman (the owner) came out on short notice to quote the job, walked us through the process, and answered all of our questions. The final price matched the quote with no surprise charges, and the work comes with a 4-year workmanship warranty. Alex kept us updated through the permit and SCE scheduling, Roman was here for both the utility and city inspections, and everything passed the first time. While he was here, Roman also fixed two dead outlets in our kitchen for a small extra charge. Cleanup was good overall, though the paint on the inside of our electrical closet frame doesn't quite match.

The one real miss was the grounding. The plan called for two grounding rods along our front walkway. Because they'd be visible, we had to get HOA approval, which delayed the project by about two months. After Benitex drilled the rods into our foundation, one of their technicians found that the house already had a Ufer (concrete-encased) ground, and that's what was used in the end. The rods were never needed, so we had them cut down and buried. Checking for an existing ground up front, or asking us for the building plans, would have avoided both the drilling and the HOA wait. They took the grounding rods off the bill, but there wasn't much acknowledgment that drilling into our foundation without checking first was a mistake.

Roman was quick and efficient! He was helpful and knowledgeable. He replaced a dimmer switch that was old and not working right with our lights. I would definitely recommend this electrician!

All phases of the project were communicated and timely.  The technician doing panel upgrade worked hard, efficient and during the heat.  Stucco replacement and paint was applied and was very close to matching smooth surface,

I needed a 120-volt outlet installed as quickly as possible, and I’m glad I chose them! They were professional, honest, and friendly. The team arrived quickly, completed the installation efficiently, and didn’t add any unnecessary charges. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Roman was great! Was able to install my wall charger within 24 hours of reaching out to him. He was efficient, explained everything after installation, and the 2 year warranty they offer is perfect! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get Tesla or EV chargers installed

I asked BeniteX to do a Ev charger installation and they did a great job! Great communication with Alex and transparent with pricing and the work being completed. Roman did a great job explaining electrical work and concepts that I have no knowledge about. He asked questions and confirmed all my decisions. I would recommend BeniteX to my family and friends and will definitely be reaching out to BeniteX for any electrical work I need in the future.

They were so great!  They take the time to explain exactly what they’re doing, were flexible with my calendar, and handled all the permitting stuff, which would’ve been quite difficult for me to do on my own

Roman helped me troubleshoot a wiring issue that occurred during a power surge. He traced down the wire and found exactly what the problem was. He is diligent and professional at his trade; one of the very best. I am grateful to have encountered him and will refer him to anyone with electrical needs. Thank you, Roman!
