"Luis and his team were very professional and efficient in getting the work done. I had new electrical outlets added, upgrades completed in a bedroom, and outlets installed for a TV and electric mounted fireplace with no visible plugs. Everything looks clean and seamless. Highly recommend! They also installed flat LED ceiling lighting & a in both the bedroom and living room and a fandilier, which turned out great. The owner personally made sure to contact me when his crew was on their way, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use them again and have already reached out for another home project!"

"Paul was a pleasure to speak with from the beginning. He gave a spot on estimate for how long the job could take and a flat hourly rate plus parts. His tech, Jaime , came and flawlessly installed the 240V outlet needed for EV charger. I will reach out to Paul and his team for any future electrical needs."

"Tyler was prompet. He was very professional. He went right to work and was careful to make sure there was no damage to our new chandeliers.. After installation he made sure his work area was clean. I would recommend Excel Electric to anyone who needs electrical work."

"Mattiace Electric is awesome! Billy got the job done in a quick, efficient and kind manner. I couldn't have asked for anything more. He installed 2 light fixtures and had to install ceiling boxes to connect the electrical. He even came back the next day to tweak the fixtures a little bit (I wanted one a little higher but said it was fine) and patched up the dry wall well. He was very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. He went above and beyond - and for SUCH a good price. Would definitely hire him again!"

"As usual with Garafano Electric, everything went fine -- way more than fine, actually. We have used them for years on various upgrades to our 1920's mediterranean home. William, the owner, is great about explaining our options and always finds the best and most efficient way to work within the confines of an older two-story duplex on a sloped lot that has serious access issues. Pricing is fair, they have never failed to show up on the appointed day, and on time, and complete the job as agreed. They have never disappointed for over 20 years, and I recommend them without hesitation!"

"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+++"

"Wilson Electric is very honest, reliable and responsive and reasonable. What a pleasure it was to deal with them.My rental had no heating. When I purchased it I was told it had heating in the ceiling and it didn't work. I also thought I would need to upgrade my circuit breaker box. Steve came out, checked it out and said all I needed was thermostats and two circuit breakers as the original ones for the bedrooms had been used for the washer and dryer hookups."

FAQs for electrical for home addition or remodel installation projects in Lake Forest, 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.
