Flickering or inconsistent lighting throughout your home or workspace

How do I know if my property needs a full electrical installation or just an upgrade?

Determining whether your property needs a full electrical installation or an upgrade depends on the age, condition, and capacity of your current system. A licensed electrician can evaluate your wiring, panel, and overall power demand to recommend the best solution.

General guidelines include:

Full Installation: Needed for new construction or when replacing outdated, unsafe wiring systems.
Upgrade: Ideal if your home’s wiring is in good shape but can’t meet modern power needs.
Frequent Breaker Trips: Suggests circuits are overloaded or panel capacity is limited.
Outdated Wiring: Aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring typically requires full replacement.
Expansion or Remodel: Adding new rooms or appliances may need a panel or circuit upgrade.

Are permits required for electrical installations in Los Angeles County?

“The install team arrived in time and were friendly and professional ! There was some change in what they thought they were installing and what had been agreed upon in talks and pricing and they did have to run grab additional equipment but they did so very quickly and works non stop to accomplish the project with quality workmanship and a great final product!”

- Ron Perry

“Scott and Zach did an excellent job installing an upgraded electrical panel. Communication was excellent and the job necessitated coordination with city inspectors and Southern California Edison all on the same day as the install. It took a little while getting the permits and coordinating with the other agencies, but on the day of construction everything went smoothly and it was done within a couple of hours. Price was reasonable and we had a quote from another that was double what Trout came up with. Scott gave me the contact of their preferred subcontractor to complete the stucco for final inspection.”

- Scott Shone

“I’ve trusted Trout Electric for four different home projects, which includes two Level 2 EV chargers (Tesla and Wolfbox), outdoor electrical power box, and full electrical panel installation for an external structure (i.e. my wife’s art studio). Always professional, timely, and competitive pricing! Even better, they offer a military discount! (Thank you!) I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Trout Electric to all my family and friends!”

- Jeffrey Fourier

“I have requested the electrical repair at one of our company’s store locations in Santa Monica. Ms. Vanessa provided outstanding service and ensured we were kept well-informed throughout the repair process. The technician demonstrated strong expertise, and the quality of the inspection and the repair work was excellent. I would highly recommend Trout Electric for any commercial electrical repair needs.”

- Miles Alty

“We found this company on the Tesla website to have our Wall Charger installed. The staff was professional every step of the way. The installers were thorough and made sure we did not exceed our power supply so that our installation was done in a safe manner. I highly recommend this company. Excellent job!”
