"Garafano Electric has being taking care of all the electrical needs and upgrades in our 90 plus year old house for a few years now. They always do A+ work. We're currently in the middle of some home renovations and they've been willing and able to work with our erratic schedule. Honest, dependable, and great at what they do. Can't recommend them high enough!"

"Called M.Y. Electrical for a 200 amp panel upgrade estimate. Luis came out the next day and had a very clear explanation of what need to be done and the timeframe involved, along with a very fair estimate. The crew: Luis, Jesus, Michael and Miguel came out a few days later to do the job. I am impressed, everyone on the crew did excellent work. Due to their knowledge and work ethics they made it stress free for me. Luis took care of obtaining the proper permits. He also informed me through texts of their arrival times, and inspection times, and being here during inspection. After electrical work was completed Javier repaired the stucco, also well done. Very happy I chose M.Y. Electrical and Louis and his crew to do the work!"

"Excellent company. I submitted a request through Angie’s list. Brian called me within 24 hours. I sent them some pictures and a description of the work to add a new dedicated circuit/outlet. and they were able to give me a quote in advance. I added two small side projects: two additional outlets. The two electricians, Guy and Aaron were on time, polite and cleaned up. Did a great job in under 2.5 hours. Will definitely use again, if needed"

"J&I was hired to mitigate the aluminum wiring in my home by installing Alumiconn connectors in all electrical boxes. This work proceeded without a hitch as J&I had previous experience with Alumiconn connectors. J&I also always arrived at the work site on time, cleaned the work area after completing the work and provided detailed invoices showing labor and materials."

"High praise to B.K. Electric Services! Great on-time service with a “Can Do” attitude. They did an excellent job installing a very long wire run for an EV charger. Enrique was the representative that came out for the free quotation. He had recommendations that the competition did not offer. The installers (George & Erick), were polite, and hard workers. I’m a little critical on some details of the work being performed. George & Erick addressed my concerns very much to my satisfaction. The office staff were friendly and efficient. I don’t give many reviews, but had to do it for this company. I will be using their services in the future. Thank You, B.K. Electric Services"

"Had a little trouble pinning down the time they would show up but once here he was very persistent in finding a solution to my request for a new plug outlet. Said he would email a bill (after I wrote a check) but never did. A little bummed about that part. Overall I’d definitely recommend as the actual service was outstanding."

"Wighton's is great about communicating with their customers.  They called the day before to remind us of the appointment, and then when the service tech was on his way, another call was made to let me know.
He was very polite and considerate.  He even put on shoe covers before coming in the house.  He took the time to explain exactly what he was going to do and why.  After he was done he went over the results of the tests and gave me copies of everything.  Everything was working fine and no repairs were needed or recommended.  He did suggest that we consider upgrading our thermostat, but there was no pressure to do so.

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Carpinteria, CA

To select and hire an electrician for your light switch installation, start by evaluating candidates as you would for any skilled position. Ask detailed questions, request a written quote, and verify their licensing credentials. This careful screening prevents unexpected fees and ensures every aspect of the installation, including any drywall repairs, complies with code.

A light switch can malfunction due to compromised wiring or overheating conditions. Faulty connections and excess heat diminish the switch’s performance. If you hear crackling, popping, or hissing sounds when toggling the switch, this indicates active electrical faults that pose a safety hazard and demand immediate professional inspection. Prompt attention prevents further damage and ensures reliable operation.

Installing a light switch takes 30 minutes or less, on average. The installation time depends on the switch type, with dimmer switches requiring additional time compared to standard on-off switches. While the hardware replacement might be completed in 15 minutes, it's essential to adhere to safety protocols, like turning off the circuit breaker and verifying there's no power, for a safe and code-compliant installation.
