Service Questions

Can you upgrade my electrical panel in Fullerton?

Yes. We upgrade main panels and subpanels for Fullerton businesss, including 200A upgrades when load requires it. Every job is different — we provide a custom quote after we see your site. Typical panel upgrade projects often start around $4,957 in labor (14 hours at our standard rate) before materials, permits, and scope; there is no one-size-fits-all maximum.

Can I upgrade my panel without rewiring the house?

Often yes. Many homes only need a new main panel or meter-main while existing branch circuits remain. If we find damaged wiring, aluminum branch circuits that need remediation, knob-and-tube, or overloaded feeders, we recommend targeted repairs or a partial rewire — not a full gut unless the system warrants it.

Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency electrical service in Fullerton for hazards such as partial power loss, sparking devices, and failed panels — call (657) 239-6331 as soon as you notice a problem.
