We handle the full spectrum of residential electrical work Pacifica homeowners need. Electrical panel upgrades for homes that have outgrown their current capacity – especially important in the Bay Area where modern electrical demands often exceed what older 60-amp or 100-amp panels can safely handle.
Our services include outlet and switch installations, ceiling fan installations, whole-house surge protection, emergency electrical repairs, code compliance updates, and smart home wiring. Many Pacifica homes, particularly those built before the 1980s, benefit from electrical system updates that improve both safety and functionality.
We also specialize in electrical work for coastal properties, understanding how Pacifica’s marine environment can affect electrical systems over time. Every installation meets current electrical codes and passes inspection the first time.
Electrical panel upgrades in Pacifica typically range from $2,000 to $10,000 depending on your current system and the complexity of the installation. A standard 100-amp to 200-amp upgrade usually costs around $3,000 for straightforward installations.
The final cost depends on factors like whether your existing wiring needs updating, if the panel location needs to change, and what size panel your home requires. We provide free estimates so you know the exact cost before any work begins, with no surprises or hidden fees.
Yes, most electrical work in Pacifica requires permits, especially for panel upgrades, new circuits, or major electrical installations. As licensed electrical contractors, we handle all permit applications and inspections for you.
We know exactly what documentation the City of Pacifica requires and how to get approvals without delays. This includes coordinating with city inspectors to ensure all work meets current electrical codes. You don’t have to worry about navigating the permit process – we take care of everything so your electrical work is completely legal and up to code.
Several signs indicate your Pacifica home may need an electrical panel upgrade. Frequent circuit breaker trips, especially when running multiple appliances, suggest your panel is overloaded. Flickering lights when large appliances start up also indicate insufficient electrical capacity.
If your home has an older 60-amp or 100-amp panel and you’re adding modern appliances like EV chargers, heat pumps, or major kitchen appliances, an upgrade is likely necessary. Homes built before the 1980s often need panel upgrades to safely handle today’s electrical demands. We can assess your current panel and electrical load to determine if an upgrade would benefit your home.
