I see Jesse has claimed he has never done work for me so I guess I need to refresh his memory. I am attaching a signed receipt from Jesse for the work he performed on my electric service box.  Glad I always keep my receipts.  Beware.  Many people have been taken by this guy.  Always pay more for a qualified, licensed contractor who performs work per code with excellent reviews and reputation.  If I could rate less than one star on Yelp, I would.I have the emails and text conversations with Jesse I can post as well concerning the work performed and unsuccessful attempts to resolve the issues.  This is not you?  How many electricians named  Jesse Avila are there that work for Avila Electric out of Monticello?  An imposter using your name and company truck?

This is the first Yelp review I have ever left. I just wanted to point out the ignorance of the person running this business. The first thing this guy asked me before he quoted me a price for a job was "what is your landlord's ethnicity, because some of them don't want to pay".Wow.. Ignorance at its finest.

In July of 2019 I had a sump pump installed by plumber.  The plumber said, you need to get an electrician to install an outdoor outlet in order to connect the sump pump.  I called  Avila.  He charged me approximately $550.00. Now, we come into November 2019, the day before Thanksgiving.  I look out the back window and I notice that my entire backyard is flooded. What?!?! How can that be? Immediately, I call the plumber.  He comes and pulls out the sump pump and shows me how it's melted.  Avila had separated the double mechanical float switch and to top it off the outside outlet had not been grounded.  Avila comes and says, "Yeah, my guy could have done a better job but it gets the job done"  I texted him afterwards to ask him pay for me having to replace the sump pump. The text messages didn't go far.  I had to hire a professional servicer to serve him because he is never at the Beverly Blvd address.  Come court date. Avila offers to pay me half of the amount I filed for but I declined.  At this point, it was about the principle of the thing. The judge was a male, I don't know if that had anything to do with him not favoring me but I will say that I had educated myself to the point where the judge asked me if I was an electrician.  Finally, the judge turns to Avila and asked do you sub-contract out? Avila replied, "Yes" and to make a long story short, he absolved him of all responsibility.  Do not give your hard earned money away.

Wow, called for a quote and was asked to Venmo $45 to whoever answered the phone just to receive an estimate on some work. I said no and got hung up on. Very unprofessional. Rude.*To respond to his comment, I am not a realtor, I work for one. And I did NOT ask for a discount for our clients. I asked for a QUOTE on the work so we can put together a request for repairs before buying. I'm expected to pay for  a quote? None of the other companies I called tried to charge for a quote and were very helpful.
