Electrical Company Brentwood CA | Call California Electrical Solutions

Yes, absolutely. Aluminum wiring, common in many Brentwood-area homes built in the 1960s and 70s, can loosen at connections over time, creating a serious fire hazard. Our professional electrical inspection will assess the condition of your wiring and all connection points. We can then recommend and perform the necessary repairs or upgrades, such as installing COPALUM crimps or completely rewiring affected circuits, to ensure your home is safe.

We see this often in Brentwood and are here to help. Flickering after a DIY install typically indicates a loose connection, an overloaded circuit, or incompatible wiring—all of which are fire risks. Our electricians will safely diagnose the problem, correct any improper connections, and ensure your new light fixture is installed correctly and up to code. It's always best to have a professional handle electrical work to protect your home and family.

Our repair process starts with a comprehensive safety assessment to identify all issues created by the previous work, such as overloaded circuits, incorrect wire gauges, or unsafe junctions—common problems with aluminum wiring DIY attempts. We then systematically correct each fault, replacing components as needed with modern, code-compliant materials. Our goal is not just to make it work, but to restore complete safety and reliability to your Brentwood home's electrical system.
