"Matt was very professional. We found out that our ducts in the attic were disconnected and he went and got all the supplies, because he tried to connect them, but they wouldn't connect, so we had him connect them. The problem was before I moved in, they had sealed it with duct tape and over time it became so loose that it lost it's power to hold. Matt put zip ties to hold them together. Thank you Matt!"

"I was having electric issues and used Angi to look for an electrician. They referred me to Gardner Electric. After a few minutes, I got a call from Heath, the owner. I told him my problems, when he got here, found the problems and fixed them pretty quickly. Heath is a great electrician, fast, friendly, and doesn't overcharge. I would highly recommend Heath and Gardner Electric if I have any further problems down the road I will definitely call Heath again."

"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Chico, installing new outlets or switches usually takes a few hours, while panel upgrades may require one to two days, factoring in permit approval. Whole-house rewiring can take up to a week, and generator installations typically last one to three days. Delays are more common during wildfire season or harvest, so scheduling around these periods can help avoid extended project timelines.

Helpful?

In Chico, electrical maintenance should include annual inspections to check for heat-related wear and wildfire risks. Test GFCI outlets each month, and inspect panels and breakers every few years to prevent issues from local power surges. Clean outdoor electrical boxes quarterly to remove agricultural dust, and service backup generators before wildfire season to ensure reliable operation during planned or unexpected outages.

Helpful?

If you notice frequent breaker trips during Chico’s hot months, flickering lights in older homes, or outlets that are warm or discolored, these are warning signs. Also, look for missing safety features, improper grounding, or panels that seem overloaded. Electrical work lacking permits or weatherproofing, especially outdoors, should be reviewed by a licensed pro familiar with Chico’s climate and code requirements.

Helpful?

In Chico, address burning smells, sparking, or exposed wiring immediately, as these pose serious risks during wildfire season. Schedule panel upgrades or surge protection before summer’s peak demand. Non-urgent updates, like new lighting or energy efficiency improvements, can wait for cooler months. Plan major electrical work for fall or winter, and always confirm backup power systems are ready before potential outages.

Helpful?

When hiring an electrician in Chico, prioritize those with experience in wildfire safety, local utility coordination, and rural electrical systems. Ensure they understand California’s energy codes and have completed recent projects in the area. Ask for references from Chico homeowners and confirm they’re knowledgeable about backup power systems and surge protection, which are especially important given the region’s unique weather and power challenges.
