LED Guys is a licensed C10 electrical contractor serving Pasadena and the greater San Gabriel Valley. From historic Craftsman bungalows in Bungalow Heaven to modern commercial spaces along Colorado Boulevard, we provide code-compliant electrical installations, LED retrofits, panel upgrades, and smart lighting systems tailored to every property type. Our team combines decades of hands-on electrical experience with a commitment to clean workmanship, transparent pricing, and permits pulled through the Pasadena Permit Center — so every project is done right the first time.
Pasadena is a city of exceptional architectural character — from the Craftsman bungalows of Bungalow Heaven and the grand estates along Orange Grove Boulevard to the contemporary commercial spaces lining Colorado Boulevard and Lake Avenue. Working in this environment demands an electrician who understands not just code compliance, but the specific challenges of updating older wiring systems, integrating modern LED and smart lighting into historically sensitive structures, and navigating permits through the Pasadena Permit Center at 175 N. Garfield Ave. LED Guys has extensive experience across all of these project types in the 626 area code.
Many Pasadena homes were built in the early 20th century, and while they carry tremendous architectural value, they often present outdated electrical panels, aluminum wiring, and inadequate circuits for today's energy demands. Whether you are in Madison Heights upgrading a knob-and-tube system, in Linda Vista adding EV charging to a hillside property, or in Villa Parke converting a garage to an ADU, LED Guys provides fully permitted, code-compliant solutions built to last — with workmanship that respects your property and your neighbors.
Commercial property owners and business operators along Fair Oaks Avenue, Arroyo Parkway, and Colorado Boulevard rely on us for LED retrofits, panel upgrades, and commercial electrical buildouts that minimize downtime and maximize energy savings. From the Rose Bowl district to the Caltech campus area, our team delivers professional results on schedule and within budget. With a drive time of approximately 29 minutes from our Van Nuys base via CA-134 E, we are consistently prompt and available when Pasadena clients need us most.

Call NowPasadena's older housing stock, hillside terrain, and commercial growth create specific electrical challenges that our team resolves every day.
Hundreds of Pasadena bungalows and craftsman homes still contain original knob-and-tube wiring that is incompatible with modern loads, cannot support grounded receptacles, and is flagged by home inspectors and insurance carriers. We replace it completely with updated copper wiring to current code.
Older Pasadena properties often have 60A or 100A panels that cannot safely power today's appliances, EV chargers, heat pumps, and kitchen upgrades. Breakers trip repeatedly under normal use. We upgrade panels to 200A or 400A service with full permitting through the Pasadena Permit Center.
Pre-1975 Pasadena homes rarely have code-required GFCI protection in wet areas. This creates serious shock hazards and is flagged during real estate transactions. We install GFCI receptacles or breakers in all required locations throughout the home quickly and affordably.
Garage-to-ADU conversions in Pasadena are popular but frequently stall when existing electrical service cannot support a separate dwelling unit. We install dedicated sub-panels, new circuits, metering when required, and all specified lighting and receptacle layouts to pass Pasadena building inspection.
Retail and restaurant tenants along Colorado Boulevard and Lake Avenue are operating with inefficient fluorescent fixtures that increase utility costs and diminish the appeal of their spaces. Our commercial LED retrofit service delivers dramatic energy savings and improved light quality with minimal business disruption.
Pasadena's growing EV adoption frequently outpaces the capacity of existing residential electrical systems. Many garages have only a single 15A circuit — inadequate for overnight Level 2 charging. We assess your panel capacity and install the correct circuit and charger for your vehicle and lifestyle.
