"Tim is the guy you want for the job! A power surge in Laguna tripped and fried my main power supply breaker. It was a Sunday night when I called Tim and to my surprise, he answered the phone! He assured me that even though he was booked the following day, he would take care of the problem. Tim met me at 7am Monday morning (before his other appointments). He had already purchased a replacement breaker and had my electricity back on by 8am! That level of service and professionalism is hard to find, so I wanted to leave a review to let everyone know that Tim Henson should be your first and last call for anything electrical!"

"Raymond and his team did an amazing job. They ran a new power line from Edison's pole to a new building on my property and installed a new electrical panel. They also ran the wiring underground to my home and created a sub-panel for power. They also installed numerous outlets for lights, including a 220v for power tools & replaced a fan motor from an existing attic fan. They did a wonderful job. They made some recommendations that I didn't even think of. They pulled permits, met with city inspectors, and worked side-by-side with linemen from Southern California Edison, without any issues. Where I believe this company really shines is in their professionalism. They return calls, they show up on time, are respectful and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them to my family and friends. I will definitely be using them again in the future. A+++"

"The power brown-out happened on a Friday afternoon and I babied it Saturday and Sunday by flipping the breakers on-and-off which I was terrified of doing. I didn't want to make matters worse. I came to work Monday morning, did a quick look on Angie's and found Steve. I chose him for his high rating. I called, left a frantic message and prayed I hear something quick. It all happened during all the rain we received in late February. Received a call within a couple of hours. We made arrangements for him to get into my yard (I drove home from work and left the gate unlocked) so his guys could come by and take a look a things. They didn't make it, by the time I got home from work and it was raining and I just figured they'd make it the next day. By 4:30p I texted Steve to say I'd see him possibly the next day? He immediately texted back and said "No, my guys are on the way, they'll be there, rain or no rain!". God bless him! (I'd rigged up a 100ft extension cord that ran from my fridge out into my garage where I still had power so I wasn't too put-out convenience wise as the back of my house had power too). Sure enough, at 5p two tired, wet guys got to my house. I went out with them and held an umbrella over them while the looked at my breaker box. It was determined that - YES.. the breakers were very old and needed to be replaced and then discovered that during a remodel the breaker box had been compromised and not repaired correctly, so basically the whole thing had to come out and be replaced. For that night though they reset the breakers again to hopefully give me power for the night and said Steve would be in touch to schedule an appt for them to come tear it out. The power stayed on for two hours, surged and blew again, so I retreated to the back of the house and and didn't worry about it. I'd left my fridge plugged into the extension cord, so I was okay for food! I just had to take it to work to cook it since my oven and stove are gas with electric starters... no cooking at home! The crew came out four days later to demo the box and re-install a new, bigger one with all new breakers and room for more as my old one was to capacity. The demo and waiting for the city inspector to sign-off on each step made the project drag on for weeks no fault being with Steve and his crew. It's just the way things are. Throughout the entire ordeal, I had power the first day of the demo, the rest was all cosmetic and re-construction of my wall (stucco etc). His crew changed for each phase and every crew member were polite, courteous and extremely neat! I'd check their progress each time and short of the huge hole in my wall, you'd never know they'd been there. The clean-up was spot-on each time and they always closed my gate and let me know when they were coming and going. They were almost done with the final stages when my pool service contacted me to say that the state laws had changed on the grounding laws for pool filters and mine needed to be changed to bring it up to the new laws. I had him contact Steve and the two of them worked out what needed to be done and the cost of that upgrade was added to the bill and now I know I'm good and safe for the pool and the house. Just knowing the two trades Since I work super early in the mornings and later into the afternoon and evenings, I couldn't be home when they'd come and I never felt creepy leaving my gate unlocked as they came and went which was a huge thing that I didn't have to be there each time. The final stage of the stucco is beautiful and matches what is there already, so I'm totally good to go!"

Warning signs include outlets that no longer grip plugs securely, visible damage to the faceplate, unusual warmth, or discoloration around the outlet. If you notice sparking when plugging in devices, breakers that trip when the outlet is used, or detect burning smells, these indicate potentially serious problems requiring immediate professional attention.
A straightforward outlet replacement takes a qualified electrician about 30 minutes or less. However, if the outlet has significant damage or the electrician needs to diagnose underlying electrical issues, the repair might extend to a couple of hours. The timeline depends on the complexity of the problem, accessibility of the outlet, and whether additional electrical work is needed.
While simple outlet replacement is technically possible for homeowners with basic electrical knowledge, safety concerns make professional installation advisable. If attempting DIY repairs, you must properly shut off power at the breaker box and verify the circuit is dead using a voltage tester. Complex issues involving circuit problems or specialized outlets should always be handled by licensed professionals to ensure safety and code compliance.
There's no set replacement schedule for electrical outlets in good condition. Instead, replace outlets when you notice signs of damage, loose connections, or functionality problems. Outlets in older homes may need updating to meet current safety codes, especially if they lack proper grounding or are located in areas now requiring GFCI protection, such as kitchens and bathrooms.
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets contain specialized safety technology that monitors electrical current and quickly cuts power when imbalances are detected. These complex internal components make them more expensive than standard outlets. Additionally, they must be installed in specific locations to meet electrical code requirements, often requiring specialized installation techniques that increase labor costs.
Request verification of proper licensing and insurance coverage. Ask about their experience with similar repairs and their process for diagnosing electrical problems. Request a written estimate detailing parts, labor, and any potential additional costs. Inquire about warranties on their work and the expected completion timeframe. Also, ask if they'll inspect the circuit associated with the problematic outlet to identify any related issues.
