Whittier issues we see with electrical repairs

- Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or Pushmatic panels that still turn up in mid-century stock: warm breakers or a main that will not stay reset

- Greenleaf storefront faults: dead circuits before opening, no spare slots for a remodel
- Dead outlets and GFCI that will not hold after a storm or bathroom remodel
About Whittier
First Electric is a licensed C-10 shop based in La Mirada (C-10 #1120441). We cover Uptown historic and plaster homes, East and South Whittier tracts, West Whittier edges, and small commercial suites on Greenleaf.
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 commercial repair visit goes
Call with the business impact
Tell us what failed, which loads are dark, and whether you can work after hours. Call (657) 239-6331.
Diagnose before we price
On site we find the root cause and give you a custom written quote before we change parts.
Repair with downtime in mind
We sequence the outage when we can, follow commercial code practices, and test the restored loads.
Honest next steps
If capacity or panel work is the real fix, you get that in writing. No surprise upsell mid-repair.
Timeline
Many commercial repairs finish the same day (about 2–6 hours on site). Parts lead time or permit-required corrections take longer; we say so up front.
Why businesses call us for repairs
Repair before install pitch
Small commercial repair leads our commercial mix. We fix what is down first, then talk upgrades when the diagnosis requires it.
Phone-first, human answer
Call (657) 239-6331; a real person answers, not an AI phone tree.

"One of my outlets kept tripping a switch in the electrical panel. Michael at First Electric was the first to make it out to my house. He looked at the problem and began to troubleshoot while explaining what he was seeing as well as offering solutions for my next steps. He recommended switching out a faulty circuit breaker and that did the trick. My power has been better than ever and haven't seen the problem since. Michael was super helpful and knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He has my business going forward 100%"
