Local coverage
Most calls we take in Irvine fall into three buckets: something stopped working, something is about to be added, or something old finally needs replacing. Each one gets a different visit. A dead circuit gets traced. A new EV charger gets a load calculation. An old fuse box gets a proper service-upgrade plan with the utility looped in.
We cover Irvine end to end — the west side, the surrounding neighbourhoods and the towns bordering the city limits. If you are searching for an electrician near me in Irvine, CA, this is the number: (888) 592-6466.

Why Irvine calls us
You get the number for the work described before any tools come out. If the scope changes we stop and tell you what changed and what it costs.
Panel upgrades, rewires and service work get permitted and inspected as part of the job, with the utility coordinated on our end.
Intermittent faults get traced to the actual failure point. We would rather spend an hour finding it than sell you three parts that were never the problem.
Every circuit we touch gets labelled at the panel, and every hole we open gets closed. You should be able to read your own panel a year later.
Single outlets through three-phase machine hook-ups, with commercial work scheduled nights and weekends so your floor stays open.
The same line takes routine bookings and 3am emergencies. No answering service that takes a message and calls you back next business day.
Tell us what is happening and where. Emergencies get triaged on the phone — sometimes the first thing we do is tell you which breaker to shut off before we arrive.
We open the panel, test the affected circuits and tell you what is actually wrong, including the parts you would rather not hear.
One number for the work described, before it starts. Options where there are options — the repair now versus the replacement that stops it recurring.
We do the job, label the circuits, clean the space and walk you through what changed and what to watch for.
Reviews
Old fuse box, 60 amp service, and a kitchen remodel booked in six weeks. They handled the utility coordination and the inspection so I did not have to.
Smart switches in a 1970s house with no neutrals anywhere. They ran neutrals to nine boxes and everything works from the app and from the wall.
Straightforward quote, no upsell, showed up when they said. Added four outlets and a dedicated circuit for the freezer in half a day.
Questions
Small jobs such as outlet or switch installation are typically a flat price. Larger work like a panel upgrade or a rewire is quoted after we look at the existing service. Either way you get the number in writing before the work starts, and it does not move unless the scope does.
Yes, on any work that requires one — service and panel upgrades, rewires, new circuits in some jurisdictions, and most commercial work. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection as part of the job.
We cover Irvine itself, its surrounding neighbourhoods and the towns nearby. Ascot Electricians works across California, so if you are just outside the city limits, call (888) 592-6466 and we will confirm coverage in a minute.
Yes. EV charger installation in Irvine includes a load calculation on your existing service, the dedicated circuit, and the Level 2 charger, Tesla Wall Connector or NEMA 14-50 outlet. If the panel cannot carry it, we will tell you what the upgrade costs before you commit.
Three common causes: too much load on one circuit, a short somewhere on the run, or a failing breaker. A breaker that trips instantly on reset usually means a short and should not be reset repeatedly. Call (888) 592-6466 and we will trace it.
Both. Residential work covers repairs, remodels, rewires and installations. Commercial work covers offices, retail, restaurants and warehouses in Irvine, and we schedule it outside your trading hours where we can.
It is not automatically dangerous, but it is a limit. Fuse boxes cap what you can add, insurers increasingly ask about them, and replacements get harder to source. Most Irvine homeowners upgrade when they add an EV charger, an AC unit or a kitchen.
