Dependable Electric Thank you for visiting my website! My name is Paul Spinosa; I own Dependable Electric. I began working in the electrical industry in 2001 and became a licensed residential journeyman in 2004. After completing a four year apprenticeship, while working in the trade, I became a licensed commercial journeyman in 2010.

In 2012 I earned my administrator's license and have since opened Dependable Electric LLC. I have worked on numerous projects ranging in size from small residential service calls to large multistory commercial buildings. I enjoy electrical work; finding solutions and fixing electrical problems gives me a sense of pride and accomplishment.

This is my go-to electrician because Paul truly is dependable. Pricing is about as reasonable as you can get given the quality and skill behind the work. He's no salesman: no upselling, no unnecessary service. He provides exceptional, honest work and take pride in his craft; something we can all agree is difficult to find. Services: Installation, Electrical outlet & switch installation, Electrical outlet & switch repair, Ground wire installation, Light fixture installation, Electrical wiring installation, Electrical fixture installation

Paul is awesome. I had an outlet that wasn't functioning and helped me troubleshoot and bring it back to life over the phone. He could've came out and charged a couple hundred but said "let's see if we cant save you a service charge". He's honest and that goes a long way, the moment I have any other electrical issues I know who I'm calling!

Really appreciate the help from Dependable Electric. Paul returned my call efficiently, went over my project for details, and answered all questions. Frank called ahead and came out as scheduled, and got all the work done on time and on budget. Overall a great job and highly recommend this company. Service: Electrical outlet & switch repair

I hired Paul and his crew to correct a few electrical issues and install new outlets in our circa 1952 attached garage. From my first contact with Paul, I was blown away by his professionalism, skill, and courtesy. He clearly communicated all issues of the job, he asked the important questions, and kept me informed at every step along the way. Paul discovered several risky problems with my older home (live knob and tube wiring, live electrical wires that had previously been nailed through).

He correct these giving me peace of mind and possibly averting disaster down the road. Paul also cleaned up some wiring recently installed by Vets Electric from a separate project. When my drywall contractor damaged some circuits after the rough-in, Paul made sure a member of his team came out as soon as possible to get my power supply up and running safely again! Paul is one of the good guys. He's nice, friendly, and fair. I will have him return to our home for all our electrical needs! I highly recommend Paul and his team at Dependable Electric!

Frank with Dependable was absolutely awesome! I had to have a wall heater repaired which was done very quickly. He also gave me maintenance tips for my heaters. I would definitely use this company for other electrical needs thst I have. I also referred them to my brother in law who is looking for an electrician for his rental property. Very professional and asked if they should remove there shoes and mask up! Very satisfied!

Called at least 20 electricians who all sounded like they couldn't care less about the issue I was facing. Called dependable electric who was also busy, but took the time to explain things to me over the phone which resulted in them not even having to come out. I really appreciated their honesty and transparency and the fact that they saved me so much money. I would trust them with any electrical work in the future.

We purchased an older home with knob and tube wiring and outdated electrical service. We had Paul out to upgrade our service and completely rewire our kitchen and bathroom. His professionalism, knowledge and diligence is just outstanding. We are now looking to bring the rest of the house into the modern era and I wouldn't think of hiring anyone else. He is a great electrician and a genuinely nice guy.

From the moment we spoke on the phone to the end of the appointment this company was professional, friendly and transparent. They are pretty busy and booked out a couple weeks but worth the wait. They were very open about the issues and walked me through the whole process even though I don't know anything about electrical work. They explained things thoroughly to where I could understand where the problems were. We are definitely going to use this company again for future projects and repairs!

I called Paul on a Friday afternoon after doing a quick Google search for an electrician in Tacoma. Since Dependable Electric had a good review, I did not hesitate to call. While I was expecting to arrange an appointment for the next week, Paul said he was in the area and would be happy to stop by. Barely 30 minutes later, he pulled up in my drive way ready to work.

The circuit in my garage kept blowing due to the number of power tools I was trying to use. Paul quickly came up with a plan to install two 20 amp circuits right below the breaker box. The job was completed in less than an hour and Paul took the time to explain the inspection process to me. From the initial Google search to the time Paul and his co-worker completed the work and left was not even 2 hours.

The work is clean and everything works great. The price was fair. Paul even took the time to talk to me about an issue I am having in a different part of the house. No doubt I'll be calling him for that work too. All in all, I could not be happier with the work Paul and his team completed. Thanks, Paul!

.Looking forward to hearing from you. It is so nice to have electricity in my whole house again. I may need a few more outlets replaced when you come next time.

Our home inspector recommended Paul, when we learned that we needed to change out the electrical panel box for safety reasons. Our brick house was built in the 1960's, so not only did the panel box needed to be changed; but also, grounding rods needed to be installed near the meter. Paul did what needed to be done and more.

We highly recommend Dependable Electric. Paul arrived on time, worked very quickly and efficiently and even finished up a little ahead of schedule. We were very pleased with the excellent job he did, not to mention the fabulous clean up afterward. We were especially impressed with his integrity and desire to earn our trust, which he did.

Sure appreciate our friend and business colleague, Paul Spinosa, who owns Dependable Electric. He came to our rescue yesterday (Friday), late afternoon, to help with an electrical issue we had at Epic Donuts. If we hadn't been able to take care of the situation, we might not have been able to be open today, so we send a HUGE shout-out of appreciation to Paul!

Paul did a great job on some projects we had in our condo. His work is professional and efficient. Best of all, he had recommendations for some changes that saved us a lot of money. We had been expecting to spend more than $1,000 and ended up spending less than $500.

My home was built in 1956. The main power wires were attached to the outside of the house and not to proper code. I had my main power brought up to code and I had a total service change on the inside. I updated my panel from Stab Loc(Circa 1956) to an up to date panel. I also added a few more outlets and had the electrician fix other problem areas.
