Can you inspect the electrical system in Commerce before I decide what to fix?
Yes. We cover Commerce from our La Mirada shop. Findings first in plain English: what is unsafe now, what can wait, and what needs a custom quote. Many visits start at $189 diagnostic, credited if you hire. Call (657) 239-6331.
Panel Inspection in Commerce
Residential Commerce & Downtown panels get inspected when breakers trip, the main feels warm, or a garage board has no spare slots after a remodel. Findings first: bad breaker versus board at capacity. $189 diagnostic credited if you hire. We check visible bus/lug issues, double-taps, corrosion, and grounding clues before anyone talks change-out. If the panel is fine and a branch circuit is the problem, we pivot to repair. Federal Pacific leftovers still turn up in older Commerce tracts; we document them when present. Call (657) 239-6331.

About Commerce
First Electric is a licensed C-10 shop based in La Mirada (C-10 #1120441). We cover homes and small commercial suites across Commerce: Downtown Commerce, Industrial District, and Residential Commerce.
People call when something stopped working: a dead receptacle, a breaker that will not hold, half a house dark, or a panel that feels warm. We fix that first. When the service is maxed out (no spare slots, unsafe gear, or load that will not support an ADU or Level 2 charger), we plan the upgrade honestly and pull the permit. Fire or life-safety emergency? Call 911 first, then us.

Repair vs upgrade decision
You get a clear recommendation. $189 credits if you hire us for the next scope.
Custom quote when upgrade is needed

Service Questions
Yes. Before you buy a home or small commercial property, we inspect the electrical system for deal-breakers: outdated panels, aluminum branch wiring red flags, overloaded services, and obvious hazards, so you can negotiate or budget with facts.
A safety inspection reviews outlets, GFCI/AFCI protection, grounding, panel condition, visible wiring hazards, and common safety issues so you know what is unsafe before it fails. We document findings in plain English and prioritize what should be fixed first.
