If you need an electrician in Glendale, CA, hire a licensed C-10 electrical contractor who pulls permits through the City of Glendale and coordinates any service upgrade with Glendale Water & Power (GWP). The most common Glendale jobs are panel upgrades in older homes, added circuits for kitchens and home offices, EV charger installs, lighting upgrades, and commercial tenant work along the city's busy retail and office corridors. B&M Electrical Services serves Glendale homes and businesses under California license C-1098584.

Glendale has a wide mix of housing, from older bungalows and hillside homes to newer condos. Older homes often have undersized panels and ungrounded outlets. Many homes in every age range are adding loads the original wiring never planned for: EV chargers, heat pumps, home offices and kitchen remodels. If you're planning any of those, start by asking whether your panel can handle it. Our electrical panel upgrade service starts with exactly that load check.
Yes. Glendale issues its own building and electrical permits, and the city's electric utility is Glendale Water & Power, not SCE or LADWP. Service upgrades that change the meter or the service connection need GWP coordination. A licensed contractor should handle both the permit and the utility side, so you're not stuck in the middle.
Glendale summers often reach the 90s°F, with heat waves pushing past 100°F, and fall can stay in the 80s°F into October. Long AC run times are the most common reason older circuits overheat or trip. Fall and winter also bring Santa Ana winds, which can cause outages. Those are good reasons to check your panel's condition and consider a properly installed generator connection.

I had a great experience with this electrical service. The team showed up on time, worked efficiently, and finished the job faster than I expected while still doing everything the right way.

I also want to give a shout out to Barrett for being pr…

Barrett came out and gave me a good price on the work. They replaced my electrical panel and installed a disconnect for my AC unit. Then the next day, had a guy come out to patch up the wall and paint when the stucco dried. He also had the number of an AC technician for me to call to move a thermostat wire. Overall, great work and very communicative throughout the process.
