Electrical Repairs in Hillcrest

If you’re experiencing flickering lights, frequently tripped breakers, dead outlets, or unexplained power issues, a professional inspection can help identify the source of the problem.

Many older homes throughout Hillcrest were built for a very different electrical load than what most families use today. As more devices, appliances, and electronics are added to a home, existing electrical systems can become strained.

Our electrical repairs address issues such as:

  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Frequently tripped breakers
  • Dead outlets and switches
  • Circuit overloads
  • Wiring problems
  • Electrical safety concerns

Our goal is to identify the root cause of the issue and provide a reliable solution that supports your home’s long-term electrical needs.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

Older electrical panels often struggle to support modern electrical demands. Homeowners may notice overloaded circuits, frequent breaker trips, or limitations when adding new appliances and equipment.

A panel upgrade can help improve:

  • Electrical capacity
  • Home safety
  • System reliability
  • Support for future electrical upgrades

Whether you’re planning a remodel, upgrading major appliances, or preparing your home for an EV charger, our team can evaluate your current system and determine whether a panel upgrade makes sense.

EV Charger Installation

Electric vehicle ownership continues to grow throughout Hillcrest, and many homeowners prefer the convenience of charging at home.

Our electricians evaluate your electrical panel, circuit capacity, and installation requirements to determine the best setup for your vehicle and property. Whether you’re purchasing your first EV or upgrading your charging capabilities, we can help you create a reliable home charging solution.

Electrical Upgrades for Older Hillcrest Homes

Many Hillcrest homeowners are investing in remodeling projects, kitchen upgrades, home offices, and modern conveniences that require more electrical capacity than older systems were originally designed to provide.

It’s common for older homes to require upgrades such as:

  • Additional circuits
  • Dedicated appliance circuits
  • GFCI protection
  • Outlet upgrades
  • Wiring improvements
  • Grounding upgrades

Rather than simply replacing individual components, our team evaluates how your electrical system functions as a whole. This allows homeowners to prioritize improvements and make smart decisions about future upgrades.

If you’re renovating an older property or simply looking to improve reliability, our team can help develop a plan that supports your goals.

Lighting and Home Improvement Projects

Electrical work plays an important role in many home improvement projects. Whether you’re updating a kitchen, remodeling a bathroom, finishing a living space, or improving outdoor areas, proper electrical planning helps ensure everything functions safely and efficiently.

We provide electrical services for:

  • Recessed lighting
  • Landscape lighting
  • Security lighting
  • Ceiling fans
  • Dedicated circuits
  • Remodel projects

Our team works closely with homeowners to create practical solutions that improve both functionality and appearance.

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!
