Storm took out our weatherhead. Ascot got the temporary sorted the same afternoon and the permanent repair inspected within the week.

Ceiling fans in four bedrooms, none of which had fan-rated boxes. They braced every one properly instead of just hanging them off the old box.

Called at 11pm with half the house dead and a smell coming off the panel. Someone answered, and a van was outside by half midnight. Found a burnt neutral, isolated it that night and came back Tuesday to do it properly.

Questions

Outlet & Switch Installation San Diego — FAQs

Where are GFCI outlets required?

Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, unfinished basements, crawlspaces, laundry areas, outdoors and anywhere near a sink. If your San Diego home predates the requirement, adding them is quick and inexpensive.

Can you add an outlet where there is nothing?

Yes. Most rooms can take an extra outlet with no visible damage, fed from a nearby circuit or a new dedicated one where the load requires it.

Why does my outlet feel warm?

A warm or discoloured receptacle means a poor connection making heat, usually a back-stabbed wire or a worn contact. Stop using it and call (888) 592-6466 — this is one of the more common starting points for electrical fires.

What is a dedicated circuit and do I need one?

It is a circuit serving one appliance only. Microwaves, dishwashers, window AC units, freezers, space heaters and workshop tools all benefit, and some are required to have one.

Do you offer a 24 hour emergency electrician in San Diego?

Yes. Our San Diego emergency line is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. Call (888) 592-6466 for no power, sparking outlets, burning smells, breakers that will not reset or any electrical fault you do not want to leave overnight.

How fast can an electrician get to me in San Diego?

Routine repairs in San Diego are usually same-day or next-morning. Emergency calls are dispatched immediately and we give you an honest arrival window on the phone rather than a vague four-hour block.
