## What Portola calls us about

Six of the situations that come up most across Plumas County, and what each one usually turns out to be.

### Panel is rusted or wet

Water in an enclosure corrodes bus stabs and creates high-resistance connections. Once rust reaches the bus, the panel is done.

Panel upgrade in Portola

### Flickering lights

Usually a loose neutral, a failing connection in the panel, or a shared circuit that is overloaded. Whole-house flicker points at the service side and needs same-day attention.

Emergency electrician in Portola

### GFCI won't reset

Either the device has failed, there is real leakage current downstream, or the load side is miswired. Metering tells us which in a few minutes.

Electrical repair in Portola

### Not enough service capacity

Either upgrade the service, or install a load management device that throttles the charger when the house is busy. Both are real options and we price both.

EV charger installation in Portola

### Thermostat needs a C-wire

Common in older homes. We pull a new thermostat cable rather than relying on power-stealing adapters that cause intermittent faults.

Smart home wiring in Portola

### New LEDs flicker or buzz

The dimmer and the driver are mismatched. Swapping to a compatible ELV or forward-phase dimmer usually ends it immediately.

Lighting installation in Portola

## Why Portola calls us

### One company for the whole job

Repairs, panels, generators, EV charging, lighting and low voltage under one number, so you are not coordinating three trades.

### Left clean and labeled

Panels get a legible directory, openings get cut straight and patch-ready, and the drop cloths come out before the tools do.

### Answered around the clock

A real dispatcher picks up at 3am, not a voicemail box that gets checked on Monday. Electrical faults get worse while they wait.

### Diagnosis before parts

We meter the circuit and find the actual fault. Swapping devices until something works is expensive for you and tells you nothing about why it failed.

## What Portola customers say

★★★★★

Added outlets to three bedrooms and a weatherproof one out back. Cuts were small, patches were tidy, and everything got labeled at the panel.

Hugo S.Outlet installation · Portola
★★★★★

Zinsco panel replaced. Straight quote, one day of work, and they handled the utility disconnect scheduling so I didn't have to call anyone.

Yasmin K.Panel replacement · Portola
★★★★★

We needed a 200 amp panel before our EV charger install. They did the load calculation, pulled the permit, and had the whole thing done and inspected in a week.
