An electrical contractor that knows Lafayette, Contra Costa County
Homes around Lafayette span more than a century of building, from pre-war houses with knob-and-tube remnants and 60-amp services to 1960s ranch homes and new all-electric construction. That mix means the same street can need a simple outlet repair at one address and a full service upgrade at the next.
Bay Area households are adding load quickly: EV chargers, heat pump water heaters, induction ranges and home batteries. Older 100-amp panels in Lafayette often can't absorb that without a load calculation and, sometimes, an upgrade. Wind-driven safety shutoffs in the hills also make backup power a common request.
ZIP code we serve in Lafayette: 94549.

What customers say
Twelve recessed lights and two dimmers in the living room, done in a day with no patching needed. The layout advice alone was worth the call.
We needed new circuits and lighting before opening our shop. Bayshore worked around our contractor's schedule and the inspection passed the first time.
A 1940s house with original wiring. They rewired it room by room so we could keep living there, and labeled the new panel so clearly even I can read it.
