Do you pull permits for residential electrical work?

Yes. For work that requires a permit — such as panel upgrades, new circuits, or rewiring — we pull the permit from your local city building department and schedule the inspection. This protects you and keeps the work code-compliant for insurance and resale.

How do I know if my home needs rewiring?

Common signs include flickering lights, frequently tripping breakers, two-prong ungrounded outlets, discolored outlet covers, or a home built before 1970 with original wiring. We can inspect your wiring and give you an honest assessment of what needs updating.

Do you offer same-day or emergency service?

Yes. We take emergency calls 24/7 for urgent issues like sparking outlets, burning smells, or total power loss. Call (714) 756-1574 at any time and we will get someone out to you as quickly as possible.

Can you install a ceiling fan where there is no existing fixture?

Yes. We can run wiring and install a rated ceiling box to support a fan in any room. If the attic is accessible above, we route the wiring cleanly through the ceiling.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes, estimates are always free. Call (714) 756-1574 or fill out our contact form and we will schedule a time to assess your project.
