Common questions about residential electrician in Capitola
Do you work on older homes in Capitola?
Yes. Older homes are a big share of our work in Santa Cruz County: fuse boxes, two-prong outlets, knob-and-tube and aluminum wiring. We can repair, upgrade in stages or plan a full house rewiring.
Can you work with my general contractor?
We regularly wire kitchens, bathrooms, additions and ADUs alongside builders and remodelers, handling rough-in, trim-out and inspections on their schedule.
Do you do small jobs?
Yes. Swapping a fixture, adding one outlet or replacing a noisy bath fan are all fine. Many customers batch a few small jobs into one visit to save on trip costs.
Is there a residential electrician near me who can come today?
Often, yes. Call (888) 633-7804 in the morning for the best chance at a same-day visit in Capitola. For urgent hazards we run a 24/7 emergency service.
From recent customers
Three ceiling fans installed where there were only light fixtures before. They swapped in fan-rated boxes and balanced all three. Quiet and solid.
Our old 100 amp panel tripped every time the AC and dryer ran together. Bayshore quoted the 200 amp upgrade on the spot, handled the permit and had us back on by late afternoon.
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.
