"Marvin from Carvin Electric did an excellent job on my request to replace a couple of breakers (15amp Zinsco) on the electrical panel for my parents house. He also cut off the electrical source to the pool pump (parents used to have a pool) and removed the outlet for an old wall unit air conditioner. My husband requested the outlet removal and Marvin obliged because he said the wire to the outlet was live and would be a hazard (especially for my toddler kids). He charged a reasonable price for all three services (only the first one was planned) and the job didn’t take more than an hour. Definitely would hire him again for other electrical work (got some ideas for the future)."

"I didn't know the rooms could be this well lit. We had some additional recessed lighting and ceiling fan/light fixtures installed (among other things). We hired Walter Electric a couple years ago to do a major upgrade on the home electrical/lighting, which turned out great, and so it was very good to be able to get them again. Keith had some great suggestions and it's really livened up the space. They are friendly, accomodating, and have great workmanship. Just really nice experience all around."

"Where other companies just assumed a generic installation, Walter Electric spent a lot of time planning a customized arrangement that worked best for our particular layout. They gave more options and suggestions, and it made all the difference in the end. I would definitely recommend them to anyone thinking about lighting installation!"

"We called him and he was able to come out the same day.  He came at the time he said he would.  He quoted a price for the work before he came out.  We had requested him to fix the circuit breaker that controlled our pool pump.  He tested all of them and found two more that did not have the proper electric power flowing to them.  He replaced all three instead of the one.  He then assisted my husband in replacing a light switch in the house that he had been working on.  He only charged us an additional 50 dollars for all the extra work  (This included all the additional parts too)  We were very impressed by the quality of his work, his honesty and the fairness and reasonableness of his fees.  We will definitely use him for any future electric work.!  Highly recommend!! <br />"

"JC Electric helped to install our NEMA 14-50 outlet for our electric car. At the same time they helped to upgrade and do a subpanel to keep our electric panel safe and to code. They were on time, professional, and completed the work in one day. I would highly recommend JC Electric."

FAQs for electrical for home addition or remodel installation projects in La Jolla, CA

There are several telltale signs that your home is due for an electrical upgrade. You may need to rewire your house if your lights are constantly flickering or your circuit breaker keeps tripping. If you feel mild electric shocks when you touch light switches, hear buzzing sounds, or notice burning smells, you may need to rewire your house, too. Discolored or burnt-looking switches and faceplates are another crucial warning sign. 

Properly installed copper wiring in a residential property can last as long as 50 to 100 years in some cases, but many homes over 30 years old are due for an upgrade. That’s the timeline that many experts recommend, even if it is only a partial update to accommodate technological advancements, increased power demands, and changing safety requirements. 

At $3 to $5 per square foot, the cost to wire a 2,000-square-foot house ranges from $6,000 to $10,000, on average. This can depend on many factors, like the age and complexity of the house and how easy it is for contractors to access the areas they need to get the job done. Opening and repairing walls can further add to your total cost.
