Smylie Electric - Simi Valley's Emergency Electricians

You're right to be proactive. Older aluminum wiring, common in some Simi Valley homes, can pose a fire risk due to oxidation and expansion issues at connections. Our team, with 40 years of local experience, is skilled in assessing and mitigating this hazard. We can perform a thorough inspection, safely repair connections using approved methods like COPALUM crimps or AlumiConn connectors, or recommend a partial re-wire if needed. Our goal is to ensure your home's electrical system is safe and reliable for your family.

Absolutely. We help many Simi Valley residents prepare for EVs by installing dedicated home charging stations. This isn't just about adding an outlet; it requires assessing your home's electrical capacity, often at the main panel, to ensure safe, efficient charging. Our licensed electricians handle the entire process—from permit acquisition to proper installation of the circuit and charger—ensuring your new station is up to code and ready for daily use. We'll answer all your questions about different charger types and electrical requirements.

An electrical panel upgrade replaces your home's main breaker box to increase its capacity and safety. Many older homes in our area have panels that can't handle modern demands from multiple appliances, air conditioners, or home additions. Upgrading prevents overloads, allows for future improvements, and brings your system up to current safety codes. Our process includes a detailed assessment, obtaining necessary permits, a clean installation of a new panel, and thorough testing. With our extensive experience, we ensure the upgrade is seamless and meets all local regulations.
