Expert Electrical Repair in Orange County, CA

When something goes wrong with your home's electrical system, you need a licensed electrician who can find the problem fast and fix it right.

Our work covers tripped breakers, dead outlets, flickering lights, faulty wiring, warm switches, and partial power loss. We diagnose first. We do not guess or patch over the real issue.

Orange County has adopted the California Electrical Code 2025 Edition, which sets the current standard for all residential electrical work. We repair to that standard.

Electrical Repair FAQ

Common questions about electrical repair in Orange County, CA.

If you have one or two problem circuits, a targeted repair is usually the right starting point. A licensed electrician can inspect your panel and wiring to tell you whether the issue is isolated or a sign of a larger capacity problem.

Stop using the outlet until a licensed electrician checks it. A dead outlet can point to a wiring fault, a tripped GFCI, or a circuit issue that may affect other parts of your home.

Flickering lights when a large appliance starts usually means the circuit is drawing more current than the wiring can handle cleanly. An electrician can test the circuit load and identify whether a repair or a dedicated circuit is needed.

Yes, we repair electrical systems in older Orange County homes regularly. Homes built before 1980 often have wiring that was not designed for today's electrical loads, and we assess the full circuit before making any repair.

Call an electrician immediately if you notice burning smells, sparking outlets, buzzing from your panel, warm switch plates, or breakers that will not reset. These are signs of active faults that can become fire hazards.

Yes, salt air near coastal areas of Orange County can degrade exposed outdoor electrical connections over time. Moisture damage around pool equipment, landscape lighting, and exterior outlets is a common repair we see in homes close to the coast.

I needed a new 200 amp electrical panel upgrade and EV charger installed. Havican Custom Electric provided the best bid and price. Andrew and his team arrived when they said they would, weathered a severe rainstorm while performing our upgrade and kept our home clean and tidy in the process. He took care of everything from coordinating with the city inspector, utility company, stucco demo and painting so the process was a breeze. Now I am the happy owner of a neatly labeled fully future proof electrical panel with whole house surge protection. I highly recommend them for all your electrical needs.

Havican Electric was incredible from start to finish. They replaced our outlets and switches, upgraded our panel, got our EV wiring ready and electric dryer working, fixed cosmetic issues, and made sure everything was functioning perfectly ... then double-checked just to be sure. They were punctual, communicative, and super respectful of our space. We have high standards for cleanliness, and they met them without hesitation. Truly professional, kind, and easy to work with. We're so grateful and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

We recently had an electrical panel replaced in our home by Andrew and Damian, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, the process was seamless. They arrived on time, was extremely professional, and took the time to explain everything that needed to be done. They worked efficiently, to obtain a permit and went through the inspection process with the City to ensure everything was up to code. What really stood out to me was their attention to detail and the quality of their work. They cleaned up after themselves, leaving my home in great shape, and answered all my questions with patience. The installation was done safely and effectively, and I felt confident in their expertise. I highly recommend Havican Custom Electric to anyone needing electrical work done. They made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and hassle-free!

Andrew and his son are awesome. I am 200% satisfy with their work. They install a nema outlet for my EV and look at the clean work they did for me (attached picture). Also, you will enjoy their movie star look as well as the great work they do for you. I recommend Havican Custom Electric for every who needs add nema outlet. Two thumps-up~

I’m am so glad that I went with Andrew out of the many electricians that I contacted for my main panel upgrade. He was very informative, responsive and more than willing to go the extra step to get the job done. I also found that his price was very competitive. I would definitely work with him again. Thank you for your help!
