What Does a Residential Electrician Do?

A residential electrician handles everything behind the walls of your home: the service panel, branch circuits, outlets, switches, lighting, EV charging, and the safety devices that protect your family. AMY Electric works on single-family homes, condos, townhomes and ADUs across Greater Los Angeles — from a single dead outlet to a full 200A service upgrade with permitted rewiring.

If you are unsure what you need, describe the symptom (breakers tripping, lights flickering, an outlet that stopped working, a new appliance that needs its own circuit) and we will tell you what is likely involved before we schedule.

What LA Homeowners Say

★★★★★

"AMY Electric installed a Tesla Wall Connector at our home in Sherman Oaks. Amram was punctual, professional, and explained everything clearly. He handled the permit and LADWP rebate paperwork too."

Sarah M. • Sherman Oaks, CA

"We needed a 200-amp panel upgrade for our older home in Burbank. Fair quote, permit pulled, completed in one day — and our insurance company was impressed with the documentation."

David & Lisa K. • Burbank, CA

FAQ

Residential Electrical FAQ

How much does a residential electrician in Los Angeles cost? ▾
Typical Los Angeles residential pricing: a NEMA 14-50 EV outlet runs $350–$600, a Tesla Wall Connector install $500–$1,200, a hardwired Level 2 charger $500–$1,200, and a 200A panel upgrade $2,500–$4,500. Repairs and small installs are quoted per job before work starts. Every range is confirmed with an on-site or photo-based assessment — the number you approve is the number you pay.
Do you handle permits and inspections? ▾
Yes. Most residential electrical work in the City of Los Angeles requires a LADBS permit, and panel upgrades require coordination with LADWP. We pull the permit, meet the inspector, and leave you the signed-off paperwork. Permit fees are included in the quoted range unless your estimate says otherwise.
Can you install an EV charger in an older home with a 100A panel? ▾
Often, yes. We start with a load calculation to see whether your existing service can support a 32A or 40A charger. If it can, we install a dedicated circuit; if not, we explain the panel upgrade cost and options before any work begins. We never install a charger that will trip the main breaker.
How quickly can you come out? ▾
Same-day dispatch is available for urgent residential calls when capacity allows, and we prioritize sparking outlets, burning smells, hot panels, and partial power loss. Non-urgent estimates are typically scheduled within a few business days. Call (818) 302-5614 and we will give you a real window, not a range.
Are you licensed and insured? ▾
AMY Electric holds California C-10 Electrical Contractor license #981578 and EVITP certification #4051604. You can verify the license yourself at cslb.ca.gov. We carry a CSLB-filed contractor's bond and can provide a certificate of insurance on request for property managers, HOAs, and escrow.
