What Central Coast Homeowners Say

5-star rated on Google • Santa Maria, SLO, Lompoc, and the Five Cities area

"Matthew upgraded our 100-amp panel to 200 amps and installed a Level 2 Tesla charger in the same day. Permit pulled, inspection passed on the first try. Price matched exactly what was quoted. Rare to find that kind of integrity."

James R.Santa Maria, CA

"We had a Federal Pacific panel that our insurance company flagged. MAG Electric replaced it quickly, pulled all permits with the city, and we had full documentation to send back to the insurer. Professional from first call to final sign-off."

Linda K.Arroyo Grande, CA

"MAG Electric handled all the electrical for our Lompoc commercial tenant improvement on time and on budget. Matthew coordinated directly with our GC, no chasing required. Will absolutely use again for our next project."

Federal Pacific Panel Out. Tesla Charger In. One Day.

A Santa Maria homeowner's Tesla Model Y arrived Friday. We were called Tuesday. Federal Pacific Stab-Lok panel, double-tapped breakers, corroded weatherhead, and zero available capacity for a 50-amp charger circuit. We replaced everything, pulled the city permit, and had the inspection passed before the car was delivered.

Why MAG Electric

The Things That Make a Difference on Electrical Work

Most homeowners on the Central Coast hire an electrician once every several years. When the job comes up, it usually matters. A panel replacement affects resale value, insurance coverage, and the safety of everyone in the house. An EV charger installation that is not permitted becomes a liability you inherit.

MAG Electric was built around one operating principle: the work has to actually be done correctly. That means every permit filed, every inspection passed, every invoice matching its estimate exactly. Not as a marketing claim. As the actual way the business runs on every job.

Matthew Gil holds California CSLB License #1115849, which is publicly verifiable at any time. The company is fully bonded and insured. We work in Santa Maria, across SLO County, and throughout Santa Barbara County including Lompoc, the Santa Ynez Valley, and Buellton.

Common Questions

Yes, without exception. Panel upgrades, EV charger installations, new circuits, rewires, and any project requiring a permit by the relevant building authority. We file the permit, schedule the inspection, and provide you with documentation. Any contractor who recommends skipping a permit is creating a liability you will carry at resale and with your insurer.
For most projects, we can complete a site assessment within one to two business days of your first call, and have a written quote to you the same day as the visit. Scheduling depends on our current workload and permit turnaround from the relevant building department. Simple jobs like EV charger installs on homes with adequate panel capacity often go from first call to completed project within a week.
MAG Electric is based in Santa Maria on Betteravia Road and serves the full Central Coast region including all of SLO County (Santa Maria, San Luis Obispo, Paso Robles, Arroyo Grande, Pismo Beach, Atascadero, Morro Bay, Los Osos) and Santa Barbara County (Lompoc, Santa Ynez Valley, Buellton, and surrounding areas). We also handle commercial projects in areas beyond our typical residential range.
Most of SLO and Santa Barbara Counties fall within the 3CE (Central Coast Community Energy) service territory. 3CE offers up to $2,000 toward qualifying EV charger installations through the Electrify Your Ride program. PG&E offers an $800 rebate for residential EVSE installs. The federal 30C tax credit covers 30% of total installation cost up to $1,000. We document our work to support rebate applications but recommend confirming current availability directly with 3CE and your tax advisor.
Almost always, yes. Buyers' agents throughout the Central Coast now routinely flag Federal Pacific, Zinsco, and sub-100-amp panels in offer contingencies or inspection negotiations. An outdated or hazardous panel creates leverage for the buyer and often results in a credit that costs more than the upgrade itself. A permitted, inspected panel upgrade prior to listing removes the contingency entirely, improves the disclosure package, and in many cases shortens the time to close.
