LED Guys is a C10-licensed electrical contractor serving Hancock Park's historic estates, pre-war Tudor Revival and Spanish Colonial homes, and commercial properties along Larchmont Boulevard. We specialize in full LED lighting upgrades, EV charger installation, electrical panel upgrades, and 24/7 emergency service — all permitted through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety before any work begins. Every estimate includes a free electrical load calculation and zero overtime charges, any day of the week.
Hancock Park's housing stock — dominated by 1920s Tudor Revival, Spanish Colonial, and Châteauesque estates — presents electrical challenges that most contractors are not equipped to handle. Aging knob-and-tube wiring, original 60-amp panels, and pre-modern conduit pathways are common throughout the 90004, 90020, and 90036 ZIP codes. LED Guys brings over a decade of Los Angeles residential experience to every project, with a deep understanding of how to safely upgrade historic structures without compromising their architectural integrity or your HPOZ status.
Every Hancock Park project starts with a free electrical load calculation — a thorough assessment of your current panel capacity against your actual usage demands. This matters especially when adding EV chargers, whole-home LED systems, or sub-panels for ADUs and garage conversions. Unlike competitors who skip this step and leave homeowners with overloaded circuits, we give you a complete picture before a single wire is touched. We then pull all required LADBS permits prior to commencing work, protecting your investment and your home's resale value.
Our teams serve Windsor Square, Larchmont Village, and the broader Greater Wilshire corridor, arriving in fully stocked service vehicles within our standard dispatch window. We charge no overtime — a service call at 10 p.m. on a Sunday costs the same as a weekday morning visit. Whether you need recessed LED lighting throughout a 4,000-square-foot period home, a Level 2 EV charger on a detached garage, or an emergency panel replacement, LED Guys delivers clean, code-compliant work on every visit.
From first call to final inspection, we keep you informed at every step — no surprises, no hidden fees.

Call NowHancock Park's 1920s and 1930s housing stock comes with a predictable set of electrical challenges. Here is what we address most frequently.
Thousands of Hancock Park homes were built with original knob-and-tube wiring that lacks a ground conductor and cannot safely carry modern electrical loads. We replace it fully with permitted NM-B or conduit-routed copper wiring, preserving plaster and original wall finishes where possible.
Original service panels in the 90004 and 90036 ZIP codes are routinely undersized for today's EV chargers, central air conditioning, and smart home systems. We upgrade to 200-amp service with a full LADBS permit — often completing panel and EV charger installation in a single day.
Long circuit runs through Hancock Park's large estate homes can cause GFCI outlets to trip under normal use. We identify the source — whether a wiring fault, downstream capacitance, or an improperly wired GFCI — and correct it without replacing functional outlets unnecessarily.
Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels remain in some Hancock Park homes and are recognized fire hazards. We replace these units immediately with code-compliant Square D or Siemens panels, with full LADBS documentation.
Adding a 50-amp Level 2 EV charger to a home with a loaded 100-amp panel requires a careful load analysis. We perform this calculation at no charge and determine whether a panel upgrade is required before any charger is ordered or installed.
Flickering LED lighting in Hancock Park homes is frequently caused by loose connections at aging junction boxes, incompatible dimmers, or undersized neutral conductors. We trace the fault to its source and correct it — not just the symptom.
