Electrical Repairs in Los Angeles
Light fixtures, ceiling fans and switch installs. Fixture-level work, not panel or rewiring jobs.
Most of our electrical calls are small jobs that sat on a list too long: a dead outlet, a fan still in the box it came in, a fixture the last owner never hung. We carry insurance and we are background checked. We are not a licensed contractor, so we work at the fixture and stop at the panel. We quote flat, then work. Light fixtures $100–$250, ceiling fans $150–$350, outlets and switches $90–$200, smoke detectors $80–$160, and an EV charger on a circuit that already exists $250–$800. Same week is normal here, and often we are out the next day.

Pre-war houses across the basin still run two-prong outlets. At some point somebody drops in a three-prong receptacle, the wall looks current, and behind it there is still nothing to ground into. Your surge strip has no job. We test the outlet before we pull it out and tell you what is back there. Swapping the device we can do. Running a proper ground from the panel we cannot, and that is an electrician's afternoon. We would rather put that on the estimate than find it with the cover plate already off. The rest of the work splits the same way. Hanging a fixture, mounting smoke detectors, wiring a charger onto a circuit that is already there and already sized: ours. Opening the panel, adding a circuit, moving one, rewiring a room: hire an electrician. Ask on the phone and we will sort your job into one pile or the other before anybody drives out.
The box behind the fan
Fans come down because of the box, not the blades. The pancake box over your dining table was sized for a glass fixture and a bulb, not for thirty-five pounds that spins every evening for a decade. So we check the rating and what the box is fastened to before the old light comes off. Hillside post-and-beam houses make it harder. Open ceiling, no attic, nowhere to reach in from above, and the honest answer some days is that the ceiling has to open first.
What customers say

“Thank you Sergio for coming on such short notice and making yourself available! Sergio was able to fix a door hanging incorrectly, plumbing, bath spout, electrical and wall-mounted a TV in minutes! Very knowledgeable and professional. Thanks again!”
“Sergio went beyond the call to fix a hole in the wall. He found the cause, fixed the hole, but also replaced the gutter, sealed all the cracks in the area and repainted everything to match. He also did some highly skilled drywall work (the ceiling has curved corners). I'm impressed and would definitely use him again.”
“Sergio was really good and honest. He knew exactly what he was doing when replacing my garbage disposal and fixing one of my kitchen cabinets. I would recommend him to other people who need a good handyman.”
