Martinez's trusted source for licensed electrical services — from outlet repairs to full panel upgrades, done right the first time.
From panel upgrades to EV charger installation, our licensed electricians handle every residential and commercial electrical need.
We run Cat6 or coax cable from each camera location to your DVR or NVR, mount cameras at optimal angles, install weatherproof junction boxes, and power everything through a centralized system.
An upgraded electrical panel supports modern power demands, prevents tripped breakers, and can increase your home value. Stop managing an overloaded system and power your home with confidence.
Recessed lighting installed too close to insulation or with incorrect housings is a fire risk. Our electricians use only IC-rated, airtight fixtures and verify every connection for safe operation.
Outdoor wiring must withstand moisture, temperature swings, and soil contact. Our electricians use UL-listed wet-rated fixtures, GFCI-protected circuits, and proper burial depths to ensure lasting safety.
Working smoke detectors cut your risk of dying in a home fire nearly in half. Hardwired, interconnected units alert your entire household the moment smoke is detected anywhere.
EV chargers draw significant power and require proper circuit protection. Our licensed electricians ensure your installation meets NEC code, manufacturer specs, and local requirements.
We handle the full installation process, from securing the fan-rated electrical box and running new wiring to balancing the blades and programming remote controls.
We mount your Ring doorbell at the optimal height, run low-voltage wiring from your existing doorbell transformer, and configure the app so you are up and running in one visit.
We examine your panel, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding system, and GFCI protection room by room, then deliver a detailed written report with findings and recommended corrections.
Commercial electrical work requires strict code compliance, proper load calculations, and coordination with inspectors and general contractors. Our licensed commercial electricians deliver permitted, inspected, and insured work on every project.
We carefully remove aluminum branch circuit wiring, pull new copper conductors through your existing pathways, terminate every connection at outlets, switches, and the panel, and restore your walls.
Ignoring electrical problems lets them get worse. Loose connections, arcing wires, and overloaded circuits cause thousands of house fires each year. Our licensed team fixes issues safely, the first time.
We test the suspect breaker with calibrated equipment, check for loose bus connections and signs of arcing, replace the faulty breaker with a matching UL-listed unit, and load-test the circuit.
Keep your home powered through any outage with a professionally installed backup generator. Enjoy uninterrupted comfort and security when the grid goes down.
CO detector placement matters as much as having one. Installed too high, too low, or too far from sources, they may not alarm in time. Our electricians follow manufacturer and code guidelines precisely.
We use thermal imaging, multimeters, and circuit analyzers to trace faults through your wiring, identify the exact failure point, and recommend the most cost-effective repair.
Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.
Upgrade your home with new light fixtures that transform the look and feel of every room. Professional installation ensures proper support, clean wiring, and the right dimming compatibility.
Smart devices need proper wiring to function reliably. Many older homes lack neutral wires in switch boxes, causing flickering or device failure. Our electricians verify and upgrade wiring so your smart home works right.
Add outlets exactly where you need them and eliminate extension cord clutter. New outlets improve convenience, reduce fire hazards, and increase your home value.
Electrical installations done without permits or by unlicensed workers put your family at risk and can void your insurance. Our licensed electricians deliver code-compliant, inspected work on every job.
Enjoy your pool or hot tub with confidence knowing the electrical system was installed safely by a licensed professional. Proper wiring prevents shock hazards and protects your family every time you swim.
A whole-house surge protector shields every appliance, device, and electronic system in your home from voltage spikes. One device at the panel protects thousands of dollars in equipment.

"JJC Electric installed recessed lights in our basement and wired a new sub panel for the finished space. They worked around our schedule, kept the workspace clean, and the finished product looks professional. Would hire again."
