The Electrician has been in business since 1987. We specialize in residential electrical projects, but have the ability to handle big commercial jobs. WE DO NOT DO GENERATOR REPAIRS. We pride ourselves on providing quality work at an affordable price. No job too big or small we have a team to handle them all. Contact us for a quote today!

"Very good job by Rich and his co-worker. They were friendly and efficient. I had an electrical outlet in our master bathroom that just stopped working one day. When it did, I replaced the outlet with new components but it still did not work. So Rich spent a lot of time troubleshooting it, checking various other outlets in the bedrooms next to it, in the other upstairs bathroom, etc until he found the source of the issue, a wire worked itself loose in the electrical outlet in the powder room on the first floor - and this disrupted the power going to the outlet in the master bath. Rich also added an additional outlet we wanted in the master bathroom and replaced the security light outside with a fixture I had purchased for him to install. I would easily recommend Rich and use him again"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The best light switch is user dependent. What works for one person might not work for another. Someone looking to ward off burglars may choose to install proximity light switches or anti-vandal switches, while someone who simply wants to find the switch in the bathroom without using a nightlight may prefer an illuminated light switch. Consider the location of your light switch and the features you want to help you decide on the right light switch for your home.

To reset an electric fireplace, first shut the unit off using the control panel or remote control. Make sure the unit is entirely shut down, then unplug it from the power outlet. Wait five to 10 minutes, then plug the fireplace back in and turn it on. This process should reset the electric fireplace. After resetting, make sure to set the thermostat, timer, and other programmable settings to suit your preferences.

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.

You can use both LED and incandescent bulbs in an incandescent fixture as long as the bulb base is the right size. Never use a higher wattage than what the fixture recommends. However, it’s usually safe when transitioning to LED bulbs because they typically have a lower wattage than their incandescent counterparts.

Baking soda is an effective fire reduction method. However, flour and baking powder are very dangerous around flames. Flour is flammable and it can also conduct electricity. The combination can cause serious injury from electrical shock and worsen the situation by adding fuel to the fire. Baking powder is also not an option as it's also highly flammable. 

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
