Daly City Electrician — Reliable Power for Homes and Apartments

Why Daly City Is Unique

Daly City is packed with mid-century single-family homes, apartment complexes, and garages converted into living or workspaces. Many of these homes still run on original wiring and panels from the 1950s–70s, and they often can’t handle the power demands of modern kitchens, laundry, and home offices. Add to that Daly City’s signature fog and moisture, and electrical gear here wears down faster than expected.

What I Typically See in Daly City

  • Old breaker panels without space for new circuits or AFCI/GFCI protection.
  • Ungrounded outlets and aluminum branch wiring in older homes.
  • Overloaded kitchens with microwaves, refrigerators, and countertop appliances sharing one line.
  • Converted garages needing new circuits for lighting, heating, or EV chargers.
  • Moisture damage in outdoor outlets and lighting due to heavy fog.
  • Apartment complexes with shared circuits and outdated service panels.

Common Fixes I Do in Daly City

  • Panel upgrades with added breaker capacity and modern safety features.
  • Rewiring to replace aluminum or cloth-insulated wiring with copper.
  • Dedicated 20A circuits for kitchens, laundry rooms, and small workshops.
  • EV charger installs in garages and driveways, with proper load balancing.
  • Weatherproof outdoor wiring to withstand Daly City’s fog and moisture.
  • Subpanels for apartments or converted spaces that need more capacity.

“Most Daly City calls are about overloaded panels and converted garages — people want modern capacity without worrying about old wiring.”

If your Daly City home or apartment struggles with tripping breakers, outdated panels, or needs an EV charger, I can make your system safe and reliable.
