"I am updating my rating for CA Electrical (Unfortunately Angi will not allow me to edit, so I am posting this as a new review). After posting my original review I was contacted by CA Electrical. The supervisor assured me that my experience was not their normal practice and that they normally made sure to call if there was a change of plans. I felt that they were earnest in trying to make things right, so I agreed to give them another chance. I ultimately decided to select them for my project to replace sub panel and install outlets. The crew was excellent and professional. They showed up on time, were professional and friendly, took extra care to ensure work spaces were left clean. Their workmanship was excellent and they did a great job of cleaning up some messy electrical wiring that had been there before. As an electrical engineer, I also appreciated the crews knowledge of code and ability to explain the technical side of the installation. I would use them again."

"We remodeled our kitchen with Gaetaway Electric, and let me say how impressed and pleased we are! Not only was Jacob professional, but he was also very communicative and detailed with every step. He is very knowledgeable in the electrical field, and gave us several different options and ideas. We were very hesitant on remodeling because we knew that with a lot of contractor work, it can take longer than what is expected. But Jacob was sure to finish on time, and we didnâ t experience any delays! We truly feel that this is a passion to Jacob, and he definitely goes above and beyond, and it shows in his work. Not only will he be our go to person for any of our electrical needs, but we have already referred him to our family and friends! Hands down, excellent service!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Los Altos, a smart seasonal inspection routine includes testing GFCI outlets and smoke detectors each spring, checking outdoor outlets and AC loads in summer, and scheduling a professional inspection before fall’s fire season. Winter is ideal for reviewing holiday lighting and heating connections. Monthly, inspect your breaker panel and replace any faulty bulbs. An annual professional checkup helps keep your electrical system safe year-round.

Helpful?

If your Los Altos home experiences frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or outlets that feel warm, it’s wise to act promptly. Homes built before the 1980s may need electrical updates for safety, especially if original wiring is present. Planning upgrades for EV chargers, smart home features, or preparing before fire season are also good reasons to schedule electrical work with a local professional.

Helpful?

For Los Altos homeowners, keeping a non-contact voltage tester, digital multimeter, and GFCI tester is essential for basic electrical safety. Stock up on wire connectors, electrical tape, and LED bulbs suited for both indoor and outdoor use, given the local climate. Outdoor-rated surge protectors and extension cords are helpful, especially during fire season. Always have emergency lighting and contact information for trusted local electricians.

Helpful?

When hiring electrical pros in Los Altos, look for contractors with strong local experience and proper insurance. Prioritize those familiar with the area’s building codes, permit processes, and unique home styles, especially for projects like solar integration or seismic upgrades. Check recent reviews from Los Altos residents and confirm their track record with similar projects to ensure reliable, code-compliant work.

Helpful?

In Los Altos, electrical project timelines depend on the project’s complexity and local inspection schedules. Simple tasks like installing outlets or light fixtures often wrap up in 1-3 days. Medium projects, such as panel upgrades or EV charger installations, usually take 3-7 days. Larger jobs—like full home rewiring or solar integration—can extend to 1-3 weeks, especially when factoring in permit approvals and inspection coordination.
