Frequently Asked Questions About Electrical Repairs

Service Questions

Do you offer same-day electrical repair service?

Yes, when schedule allows. Call (657) 239-6331 — we prioritize hazards and offer same-day repair visits for many outlet, breaker, and circuit faults in California.

What types of electrical problems can you fix?

Tripping breakers, dead outlets, flickering lights, failed switches, damaged wiring, GFCI/AFCI faults, and most residential or light-commercial troubleshooting. If it is sparking or smelling like smoke, treat it as an emergency and call (657) 239-6331.

Why do my lights dim when an appliance kicks on?

Dimming often points to loose connections, an overloaded circuit, or a panel that is near capacity. We diagnose the circuit and panel safely — call (657) 239-6331 if dimming is new or getting worse.

When should a GFCI outlet be replaced?

Replace GFCI receptacles that will not reset, trip immediately with nothing plugged in, or are past their reliable service life in wet locations (kitchen, bath, garage, outdoors). We install the correct GFCI/AFCI device type for the circuit.

What do customers say about electrical repairs from First Electric?

"This company is great! Had an outlet that wasn't working no matter what I tried. From setting up the appointment with Leah to when Michael and Joshua came out. They were professional, polite and explained everything to me. Will definitely use them again in the future if needed!!" — Racquel M., 5-star review.

Pricing Questions

How much do electrical repairs cost?

Repair pricing depends on the fault and parts needed. Every job is different — we provide a custom quote after we see your site. Typical repair projects often start around $708 in labor (2 hours at our standard rate) before materials, permits, and scope; there is no one-size-fits-all maximum.

Process Questions

Do electrical repairs require permits?

Like-for-like minor repairs often do not; new circuits, service changes, and many replacements do under the CEC. We tell you upfront when a permit is required and handle it.

How long does a typical electrical repair diagnostic take?

Most diagnostics take about an hour on site. Complex intermittent faults can take longer. You get a clear explanation and a custom written quote before we start paid repair work beyond the diagnostic.

General Questions

Why hire a licensed C-10 instead of an unlicensed handyman for repairs?

Electrical contracting for hire in California generally requires a C-10 license, proper insurance, and code-compliant work. First Electric is C-10 #1120441. Unlicensed work can fail inspection and leave you exposed if something goes wrong.

"I had two light blurbs flickering. Michael was able to diagnose problem quickly and make repair I would definitely recommend them"

"Do not use! They charged me $190 to "diagnose and repair". The technician they sent out did not listen to my issues, but instead just reset the breakers and told me to upgrade my box. He did not diagnose the actual problem and he did not repair anything. Instead they used it to try to upsell me. THEN, they refused to even send me quotes so that I could look over what they were offering. They insisted they must set up an additional meeting and meet in person before they would give me any quotes. Any company that does this is very shady and this is an immediate red flag! This is disrespectful of my time and is only necessary if you know your quote is not competitive and you need a hard sell. There are better electrical companies out there. Don't waste your time and money."

"Michael diagnosed our circuit breaker tripping (ended up being a tricky issue related to an outdoor outlet) and ultimately fixed the issue. He explained everything clearly, including general electrical best practices, and also provided advice, suggestions, and quotes for other electrical work around the house. He was professional and friendly throughout, and we never felt like we were being upsold or pressured."

"Our project was to have recessed lighting installed in livingroom, center ceiling fan wiring in dining area, hide wiring in wall for TV and components, and repair outlet. We searched companies on Yelp and decided to call First Electric after reading many positive comments from customers. Michael responded promptly and provided us with quotes for different options. We didn't have to look any further. We were sold by Michael's demeanor, professionalism and honesty. He started the job in a timely manner and was very thorough making sure every detail was to his and our satisfaction. First Electric is now our preferred choice for all our electrical needs."

"Thank you, Michael! Not only was Michael highly recommended, but he delivered...and delivered more reasonably than any of the other bids I got. He was professional, kind, and ensured everything was working before he left because another electrician had tried to do the same but it only worked intermittently. He was able to rewire an outlet in my hall closet that is deep and dark and find the issue to repair somehow. Now I can see to organize the closet! Thanks so much! Highly recommend!"
