emergency call out San Francisco

Upgrading your electrical service is essential for modern living. Older homes and businesses in San Francisco often have panels rated for 60 or 100 amps, which cannot handle today's power demands from appliances, electronics, HVAC systems, and electric vehicle chargers. Our team specializes in seamless service upgrades to 200 amps or higher, ensuring your property has the capacity it needs without overloading circuits or tripping breakers. We start with a thorough assessment of your current system, calculate your actual load requirements, and recommend the best upgrade path. The process includes obtaining necessary permits, disconnecting old service, installing a new panel, connecting to the utility grid, and passing all inspections. We work closely with local utility companies to minimize downtime. Upgrading also improves safety by reducing fire risk from outdated wiring or overloaded panels. Many homeowners see increased property value and lower insurance premiums. For businesses, a robust electrical service prevents costly downtime and supports expansion. Trust First Choice Electricians to handle every detail with precision and care. We use top-tier equipment and follow National Electrical Code standards. Call us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward a safer, more powerful electrical system.

Outdated or damaged wiring is one of the leading causes of electrical fires and power failures. Whether you are renovating an older home in San Francisco, adding new rooms, or dealing with frequent flickering lights and burning smells, our wiring and rewiring service provides a complete solution. We handle everything from minor circuit additions to whole-house rewiring. Our process begins with a detailed inspection using thermal imaging and circuit testers to identify hidden hazards like knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum wiring, or rodent-chewed cables. We then develop a rewiring plan that minimizes disruption to your walls and daily routine. Our team carefully removes old wiring, installs new copper conductors, upgrades grounding, and adds dedicated circuits for high-demand appliances. We also ensure all outlets, switches, and junction boxes meet current safety codes. For new construction, we work with builders to design efficient, code-compliant electrical layouts. After rewiring, you will notice more consistent power, fewer breaker trips, and better energy efficiency. We also provide comprehensive documentation for insurance and resale purposes. With First Choice Electricians, your property’s electrical backbone will be safe, reliable, and built to last. Contact us to schedule a wiring assessment today.
