Electrical Company Costa Mesa CA | Call Lighthouse Electric

Absolutely. In older Costa Mesa homes, aging attic wiring is a common culprit for flickering lights and short circuits. We also frequently find issues stemming from improper DIY electrical work. Lighthouse Electric can perform a thorough electrical inspection to diagnose the root cause—whether it's faulty wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a problematic connection—and provide a safe, code-compliant repair to restore your home's electrical safety and reliability.

It depends on the cause. A tripping breaker can signal an overloaded circuit, a short, or a failing breaker itself. Our technicians will diagnose the issue with your specific panel. Often, a circuit breaker repair or replacement resolves it. However, in some Costa Mesa homes with older, outdated panels, an upgrade might be necessary for safety and to handle modern electrical demands. We'll explain your options clearly before any work begins.

Installing an EV charger typically requires assessing your home's existing electrical capacity, often at the main panel. We'll check if your current service can support the added load or if an upgrade is needed. Then, we run the proper wiring from the panel to your desired location (like a garage) and install a dedicated outlet or hardwired station. As a full-service electrician, Lighthouse Electric handles the entire process, including securing any required permits for Costa Mesa, ensuring a safe and efficient installation.
