Licensed, family-owned electricians serving homes and businesses across the Peninsula since 1992.
Dependable Emergency Electrician Services in Daly City, CA
Wells Electrical has been wiring homes and businesses across the Bay Area since 1992, and Daly City has been part of our territory for most of that time. We know John Daly Boulevard traffic, the marine layer that rolls in over Westlake by four o’clock, and the difference between a quick outlet swap and a job that needs a full permit pulled with the city.
Daly City’s mix of housing and business is unlike its neighbors. Rows of mid-century Doelger homes climb the hills near Westlake and Serramonte, many still running on original 1950s wiring. Newer condos and apartment complexes near the BART stations bring different challenges, from shared electrical rooms to HOA approval for EV chargers.
Whether it’s a home built by Henry Doelger in 1952 or a storefront that opened on Mission Street last year, our electricians show up licensed, insured, and ready to explain what your property actually needs. Free estimates come standard, and our emergency line stays open around the clock for the problems that can’t wait until morning.
Electrical Installation, Maintenance, & Repairs for Daly City
A century of fog, salt air, and shifting foundations takes a toll on wiring that most homeowners never see until something trips, flickers, or stops working altogether. We handle the full range of electrical work Daly City properties need, whether that’s a single repair or a ground-up installation.
Residential Electricians for Daly City's Fog Belt Homes
Our residential electricians spend a lot of time in Doelger homes. These “Little Boxes” from the 1950s were built fast and built well for their era, but most were never designed to run a modern kitchen, a home office, and an EV charger off the same panel. We test the wiring, explain what’s original and what’s been touched, and give you options instead of a sales pitch.
If you’re in Westlake, Serramonte, St. Francis Heights, or one of Daly City’s newer condo buildings, we’ve likely already worked on a home like yours. Panel upgrades are one of our most requested jobs here, especially for families adding an EV charger to a garage that still has 1950s-era electrical service. We also handle lighting upgrades, ceiling fan installation, smoke detector replacement, and the smaller repairs that come with owning an older home near the coast.
Every residential job includes a walkthrough before we start and a clear explanation of the work when we finish, so you know exactly what changed and why it matters.
Commercial Electrician Services in Daly City
Daly City’s commercial corridors run from the big retail anchors at Serramonte Center and Westlake Shopping Center to the smaller restaurants, offices, and service businesses tucked along Mission Street and John Daly Boulevard. Each one needs an electrician who understands that downtime costs money.
We work with property managers, retail tenants, and business owners on everything from panel upgrades and rewiring to lighting retrofits that cut energy costs without disrupting business hours. Our commercial electricians are familiar with code requirements for tenant improvements, multi-unit retail buildings, and the inspections that come with them, so projects move without surprises.
If you’re opening a new location in Daly City or upgrading an existing one, we can walk your space, flag what needs attention, and put together a plan that fits your timeline and budget.
