Clairemont is known for its charming mid-century homes, many of which were built in the 1950s and 60s.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel to install an EV charger?

Many older homes in Clairemont may require an electrical panel upgrade to safely support a Level 2 EV charger. During our evaluation, we’ll check your system’s capacity and recommend any necessary upgrades to ensure your home can handle the additional load.

Level 1 chargers use a standard 120V outlet and are much slower, often taking 12-24 hours for a full charge. Level 2 chargers run on 240V and can charge most EVs in just 4-8 hours. We typically recommend Level 2 chargers for daily use at home.

Most EV charger installations can be completed in one day. If an electrical panel upgrade is needed, the process may take longer, but we’ll walk you through the timeline and keep everything on schedule.

Yes! We work with all major EV charger brands like Tesla, JuiceBox, ChargePoint, and more. We can help you choose the right model for your vehicle, charging habits, and budget. We also install customer-supplied chargers.

Yes, a permit is typically required, especially if electrical upgrades are involved. Don’t worry – we handle all permitting and inspections as part of your installation.

I am very pleased with this company because they have great people working for them. [My technician] was organized and all were at the house in 2 days. Paper booties were worn. The electricians knew what they were doing and produce excellent work. I had 3 new circuits put in along with updating box. All this was done in one day. This co also sends a pix of technician who is coming to your house. Every person had lovely manners, and cleaned up, even vacuumed under stove when it was moved. A fine experience and I’d use them again.

I had a water leak at my house and its cause was extremely difficult to find. Our tech spent a long time carefully analyzing and testing all possible options until he found the cause of the leak, like really a true detective, that nobody else before him was able to find. He demonstrated not only that he is a truly top professional but the he also is kind, patient and understanding. He explained all the issues very well and was also mindful of my time and convenience. He works very fast, efficiently and reliably and is extremely nice human being.

Point Loma Electric and Plumbing did electrical work in our house once and we liked the service the first time so we called them again. The technicians have been nothing but friendly and professional both times. They walked us through every step of the process. They showed up on time and completed the work in a timely manner. If we had any concerns they made sure the address them, if anything was needed, they handled it. We will definitely use Point Loma Electric and Plumbing again. Johnny who oversaw the work is the best!! Thank you

Had an emergency water heater leak. Called Point Loma. Within the hour, James shows up and goes to work. And by the next day, we have a tankless water heater up and running. Thanks to James for the excellent customer attention, service and hard work!

Always great to work with them - years 2011 for new electrical panel, and 2025 for some minor upgrades. Erich and Leo corrected 3 problems with old wiring we were having. Very great team and very much appreciate their work.

My a/c has not been working for some time. I called Point Loma Electrical and they sent Nicholas Mullins to stop by and check it out. What a great guy. He was very respectful, honest, evaluated the situation and made recommendations that I felt were straight forward. This company is top notch and I would recommend them to any of my friends and family. This is now my go to ac repair company.

We had Point Loma Elec rewire our entire 62 year-old house's electric. They worked efficiently and were thorough letting us know what was discovered and done each day. Timely, neat, and responsive and affordable with great financing. Highly recommend.

This is a great team. I had to replace some fluorescent lights in the kitchen. I couldn't do it myself because the ballasts had to be replaced and that's above my skill level. Anthony and Matt came today and put in new led lights (with a 10 year warranty- fluorescent lights are ancient tech). Anthony and Matt were very professional and efficient. I would recommend them highly!
