"Burgin Brothers Electric Inc. was just the electrical company I needed to update my wiring. I recently did a remodel of the back unit of my duplex and Mark helped me with the electrical part of it. Mark and his company were so gracious and helped me out tremendously by also installing a kitchen hood vent and a bathroom exhaust fan. He is also extremely affordable. How I know this is that in the recent past I had an electrician add two circuits to my front unit. That electrician was extremely expensive and did not even complete the work, and other estimates I was given for my back unit were also just as expensive. I strongly advise that if you have Mark and his company come do any work for you, don't let anyone else handle your breaker panel; let him take over. He will clean it up for you. Any new circuits you have installed will be up to code. Mark knows how to analyze your system and will put in the proper safety features. He is remarkable, patient and helped me plan out my system so that it would work efficiently. I am very satisfied with Mark and his work ethic and I highly recommend Burgin Brothers Electric Inc."

"I had a short in an electrical outlet, and needed someone to come and replace all of them in the house. I called tail gunner electric. We realized that I live about an hour and a half away, but he was still willing to come and replace all my plugs the next day. He was very nice, professional. I will use/refer for any electrical work needed from now on."

"I needed a complete redo of my 1970s electrical. He gave me a good estimate. Then I added a bunch of stuff. It was around Christmas too. But they were available and squeezed in my emergency between their other appointments. Minus half a start for a couple unfinished plug plates but really no biggie. My project I'm sure was annoying and Walter Electric was awesome!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The process of hiring a reliable electrician begins by searching for local professionals and verifying that they hold a master electrician certification and the proper licensing for your area. After that, you should read through reviews from past customers to see the kind of service you can expect from the contractor, as well as look at the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to check for a history of company complaints. You can also ask for customer references to make sure you’re choosing a reputable professional.

DIY is not recommended for commercial settings due to safety regulations. Hire licensed professionals for compliance.

Burnt outlets can be caused by things such as faulty wiring, loose connections, or a circuit overload—and yes, they are extremely dangerous. If you notice your outlet is hot or has burn marks, you should shut off the power to it from the circuit breaker and immediately call an electrician.

Yes. You should always turn off the power to the work area before beginning, use a voltage tester to ensure it’s off, and wear protective gear, such as insulated gloves or safety glasses, to prevent risk of injury. Proper wiring and grounding techniques are also necessary to make sure the job is done right the first time and won’t harm any future homeowners. 

You can check if an electrician is licensed in California by using the online check a license tool offered by the Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors State License Board. You have the option of searching by the license number, the electrical contractor’s name, or the name of the business to determine the electrician’s status.
