Yes, older aluminum wiring, common in some Costa Mesa homes built from the mid-1960s to late 1970s, can be a fire hazard due to connection points loosening over time. We specialize in diagnosing and remedying this local issue. Our services include thorough inspections, applying approved anti-oxidant paste at connections, or recommending and performing safe rewiring or 'pigtailing' with copper to bring your electrical system up to modern safety standards and protect your home.

Installing an EV charger typically involves assessing your home's electrical capacity. We'll check if your current panel can handle the added 240V load required for fast charging. If an upgrade is needed, we can install a new circuit and the appropriate outlet or hardwired charging station. As a licensed contractor, we ensure the installation meets all local Costa Mesa and national electrical codes for safety and proper function.

Our comprehensive electrical inspection covers all critical systems. We check the main service panel for safety and capacity, test outlets and GFCIs, inspect wiring conditions (including for local issues like aluminum wiring), evaluate lighting circuits, and ensure all work meets current code. We provide a detailed report outlining any concerns, from minor repairs to major safety issues like faulty breakers, giving you clear information to make informed decisions about your Costa Mesa property.
