Frequently Asked Questions

Does my historic Auburn home need a full rewire?
If your property was built before the 1950s and still utilizes knob-and-tube wiring, a rewire is highly recommended. Modern appliances create loads that these old systems were never designed to handle, significantly increasing the risk of electrical fires.

How do I get an electrical permit for my project in Auburn?
We manage the entire process for you. For residents within Auburn, we coordinate with the Placer County Building Services office at 3091 County Center Drive to secure permits and schedule inspections.

Why do my lights flicker when it gets windy in the foothills?
This often indicates frayed or loose service wiring where the power lines connect to your home. In the Auburn area, wind and falling branches can stress these connections; we can inspect your service entrance and weatherhead to ensure everything is secure.

Can you install smart home lighting in an older house?
Absolutely. We can often install smart dimmers and scene-selection systems even in older homes by "fishing" new neutral wires through existing walls to minimize damage to historic plaster or drywall.
