Local rules before you book

the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power delivers electricity in Los Angeles. If the whole block is dark, report it to them first. If it is just your home or one circuit, that is electrician territory. Electrical contractors in California are licensed by the Contractors State License Board, and electricians working for them need state certification.

The local picture in Los Angeles

LADWP is the largest city-owned utility in the country, supplying both water and electricity. Summers are dry and hot, especially in the Valley, while the coast stays milder under the marine layer.

Accessory dwelling units, many of them garage conversions, have gone up across the city since state law eased the rules. Older basements and garages tend to be short on outlets, so extension cords end up doing permanent work for freezers and tools. That is worth fixing properly.

Solar panels and home batteries are common here, and adding them often means a panel upgrade and a utility interconnection. Older homes often have raised wood foundations over a crawl space, while newer ones sit on concrete slabs.

Get ready for the call

Make a short list of every outlet and light that is acting up. It saves time once the electrician starts testing.

Quick answers

Is a warm outlet cover a problem?

Yes. Warm or discolored outlets and switches can mean a loose wire or overloaded circuit. Stop using that outlet and have an electrician look.

Are two-prong outlets unsafe?

They are ungrounded, which matters for computers and appliances with three-prong plugs. An electrician can add grounding or install GFCI protection as an allowed alternative.

Do you cover Eagle Rock and Van Nuys?

We look for independent pros across Los Angeles, including Eagle Rock, Westchester, Silver Lake and Echo Park, and ZIP codes 90001, 90002, 90003, 90004, 90005 and others. Coverage depends on which pros are available that day, so we will tell you right away if we cannot find someone.

Can I install an EV charger at home?

Often, yes. A Level 2 charger usually needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit, and an electrician will check whether your panel has room.

If things get worse while you wait, call back and tell us. Safety comes before scheduling.
