Electrical Repair Los Angeles (2024)

At Express Electrical, our team of skilled and licensed electricians are ready to assist with anything from sparking outlets to electrical panel upgrades in your Los Angeles home. Electrical inspections and repair services are necessary to maintain the safety, convenience, and efficiency of your home’s electrical system.

Whether a sudden power outage, damaged wiring, or a flickering light, our electricians are ready to respond to routine repairs and electrical emergencies. Our electrical services include the following repairs and more.

Electrical panel upgrades

Your electrical panel serves as a power hub for your Los Angeles home, delivering electricity from the grid to each room, appliance, and device. Electrical panel upgrades can increase your system’s load capacity, ensuring a reliable and safe system that minimizes the risk of overheating circuits. These systems also help keep your home compatible with modern appliance and device power requirements, improving the functionality, convenience, and value of your home.

Circuit breaker repair

Circuit breakers protect your home from electrical overloads and fires. Our circuit breaker repair services pinpoint the underlying problem to determine why your circuit breaker may trip frequently or perform unreliably.

Rewiring

There’s no rewiring job too big or small for our residential electricians. We can handle home rewiring, appliance wiring, damaged wiring replacement as well as knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring removal and replacement.

Outlet and switch replacement

Faulty outlets or switches can limit the functionality and convenience of your electrical equipment and may even pose safety concerns. We offer upgrades to ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets, three-prong outlets, dimmer switches, and other options to ensure your system meets electrical code compliance standards with proper grounding and electrical fault protection.

Lighting and ceiling fan repair

Whether your lights flicker, dim, or perform in an otherwise unreliable manner, our team can assist. Likewise, your ceiling fans can sustain damage such as bent blades, loose parts, or motor issues. We’ll look for underlying problems including faulty connections, loose components, incompatible junction boxes, and more.

Surge protection

Power surges can damage appliances and electrical devices in your home, potentially leading to costly replacements. Upgrading to surge protection devices helps divert excess voltage from connected electrical equipment during surges, whatever their cause.

Our electricians possess the skills, knowledge, and experience to address any electrical problem in your home. Some common signs and symptoms of electrical problems we see in Los Angeles homes include:

• Faulty wiring: Older homes in Los Angeles may have an outdated form of wiring called knob and tube wiring, which can pose significant risks and doesn’t meet current safety standards. We also address aluminum wiring or damaged wiring.

• Flickering lights: Flicking lights can indicate numerous issues, such as loose wiring or insufficient voltage.

• Damaged outlets: Loose, burnt, or other issues with outlets and switches require attention for your safety and convenience.

• Power surges: Los Angeles homes are at risk for power surges from commonly-occurring lightning strikes as well as utility company issues or wiring problems. Surges can damage appliances and electronics and lead to costly repairs.

• Buzzing or sparking: Buzzing and sparks from electrical equipment suggests poor connections or electrical arcing.

• Overheating circuits: Warm or scorched outlets or switches, burning smells, and other signs point to overheating circuits.

• Frequent circuit breaker trips: While occasional breaker trips are normal, persistent problems are a warning sign. Whether due to too many devices pulling power from a single outlet or circuit, short circuits, ground faults, or electrical panel problems, frequent circuit breaker trips require professional attention to diagnose.
