About Long Beach
First Electric is a licensed C-10 shop based in La Mirada (C-10 #1120441). We cover homes and small commercial suites across Long Beach: Downtown Long Beach, Belmont Shore, and East Long Beach.
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.
How a repair visit goes
You call, we listen
Tell us what failed, when it started, and whether breakers trip or anything smells hot. Call (657) 239-6331. We schedule a tech or prioritize unsafe conditions.
Diagnose before we price the fix
On site we find the root cause, not just the symptom. You get a clear explanation and a custom written quote before we change parts.
Repair and test
We make the repair to California Electrical Code practices, restore power safely, and test the circuit under load when that matters.
Honest next steps
If the panel, feeder, or wiring is the real problem, we document it. No surprise “while we are here” markup without your OK.
Timeline
Many repairs finish the same day (about 1–4 hours once we are on site). Parts special-order or permit-required corrections take longer; we say so up front.
Why homeowners call us for repairs
Phone-first, human answer
Call (657) 239-6331; a real person answers, not an AI phone tree. That is how we book service calls.
Licensed C-10 work
C-10 #1120441. Electrical contracting for hire in California is licensed work. We pull permits when the repair requires them.
Custom quote after we see it
Complex faults are not priced from a script. $189 diagnostic credited toward the job if you hire. Written quote for the scope we found, no cookie-cutter estimate.
Repair before upsell
Service and repair calls lead our mix. We recommend a panel upgrade or rewire only when the diagnosis says you need it.
Available in These Locations
We provide electrical repairs services in cities throughout our service area.

Like-for-like minor repairs often do not; new circuits, service changes, and many replacements do. We tell you upfront when a permit is required and handle it.
Service Questions
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.
Dimming often points to loose connections, an overloaded circuit, or a panel that is near capacity. We diagnose the circuit and panel safely. If dimming is new or getting worse, get it checked soon.

"Michael saved us on a Sunday afternoon when one of our outlets started SMOKING! He came over, was super professional, and helped get us to a point where we could safely get the electricity turned back on. He fixed up some of our other wiring issues and gave us a couple quotes for other services (not including the attempted IT help ). He came back a few days later and installed a new microwave for us as ours had also recently gone the way of the dinosaur. Yes the house is apparently falling apart. But when we need electric help in the future, Michael is our first call. Thanks!"
