Hiring an electrician in Danville

In California, electrical work of $1,000 or more needs a C-10 Electrical license from the CSLB. EV chargers and panel upgrades usually need a permit. You can look up a contractor's license at cslb.ca.gov.

Questions to ask

  • For an EV charger, check your panel's size first; it decides whether you need an upgrade.
  • Panel upgrades often need PG&E to schedule a shutoff. Ask who coordinates it.
  • Ask if the price includes the permit and inspection.
  • Sparks, burning smells or a hot panel: switch off the main breaker if it's safe, then call.

What affects the price

  • Panel capacity
  • Distance from the panel
  • Wall and attic access
  • Permits and utility coordination

Typical electrician prices

  • Electrician (hourly)$50 - $130 an hour, plus a $100 - $200 service call

Typical ranges from published cost guides - mostly national figures. Bay Area prices usually run higher. Your actual price depends on your home and the job, and a pro gives you the real number. Source: HomeAdvisor cost guide (national).
