Electrical Work in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor
Panel, EV charger, generator, solar, battery and lighting work all come under a single license, so there is no finger-pointing between trades and one permit process instead of three. That is why homeowners and businesses in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor call us for everything from a dead outlet to wiring a custom home from the ground up. Whether you are upgrading an older home, adding modern equipment or chasing a problem that won't go away, we have the experience to handle the job properly.
EV Charger Installation in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor
Once the panel is sorted out, charging at home comes down to a few clear decisions.
A home EV charger starts with the electrical system, not the charger. We check your panel's existing capacity and open breaker space with a load calculation before you buy equipment, then help you choose an amperage that suits your vehicle and your driving habits, because the vehicle's onboard charger sets a real limit on how much power it can use. A licensed electrical contractor pulls the permit, and we test the installation before a final inspection confirms it is safe and ready to use.
Generators, Solar and Backup Power in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor
Backup power is a planning question before it is an equipment question.
Settling the transfer switch connection method first can save real money or spare you an upgrade down the road. We talk through your generator type, your budget and your coverage, help you decide among an interlock kit, a manual switch and an automatic switch, confirm the permit requirements, check that your panel brand supports the method, and install it correctly the first time.
A solar battery stores the solar energy your system already produces and uses it later, including during expensive evening peak hours, instead of selling it back for very little. We review your existing solar, your usage patterns and your backup goals, help you choose between whole-home and essential-circuits coverage, design the battery, the backup gateway and any needed panel work, and test the backup switchover under real conditions. You also learn how to monitor and configure the battery's charge and discharge settings.
Troubleshooting, Repairs and Safety Checks in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor
When something in the existing system is not working, the job is to find the cause before fixing anything.
Circuit breaker repair is a diagnosis first and a repair second: a breaker that trips repeatedly, won't reset or fails outright needs its cause found. We match the replacement to your panel's brand, since mixing brands is a code violation and a real fire risk, and we tell you honestly whether it is a breaker problem or a bigger one. If repeated trips point to the panel itself, the conversation moves to a panel upgrade.
Commercial and Tenant Electrical Work in the Oak Hill Estates area of Windsor
For commercial properties, the work is planned around operating hours and building requirements.
Commercial lighting work also includes repair, motion sensor lighting, flood lights, landscape lighting and pendant lighting for offices, retail spaces and restaurants. Larger projects share permitting and installation costs across more fixtures, and we work around your business hours to keep disruptions to a minimum.

“Bright Right did the electrical for our kitchen remodel and we couldn’t be happier, we have since then added an EV with them and they were as good as the first time. Highly recommend!”

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you licensed?
Yes. Bright Right Electric is a family-owned, licensed California C-10 electrical contractor, CSLB #1156335, and we are licensed, bonded and insured.
Can you work with my general contractor?
Yes. For remodels and new construction we work directly with your contractor, sync the timeline with other trades, and have every circuit permitted and inspected at both the rough-in and finish stages.
What is the difference between repair and installation?
Electrical repair fixes something already in your system that isn't working correctly, such as a dead outlet or a breaker that won't stay reset. Electrical installation adds something new, such as a circuit, outlets, fixtures or an EV charger.
Why does my breaker keep tripping?
Repeated trips can have several possible causes, including faulty connections, damaged wiring, overloaded circuits or other electrical faults. We investigate the electrical system to find the actual source instead of replacing the breaker and hoping the problem disappears.
What is an electrical code correction?
It is work that brings specific parts of your electrical system up to current code, fixing the particular items flagged rather than rewiring the whole house. It is most often triggered by a home sale, an inspection report or an insurance requirement.

Electrical Panel Upgrades in Rohnert Park
Replacing an undersized or obsolete panel is the most common job we perform in Rohnert Park, and it's the one that unlocks everything else. If your home still runs original 100-amp service, a Federal Pacific Stab-Lok, or a Zinsco panel, you're working with equipment engineered for a much smaller electrical load — and, in the case of those two brands, with a documented history of breakers that fail to trip. Upgrading to 200-amp service makes EV charging, battery backup, heat pumps, and modern appliance loads possible without constantly tripping breakers. We size the new service to what your household actually needs, pull the permit, coordinate the PG&E disconnect and reconnect, and meet the inspector for final sign-off.
EV Charger Installation in Sonoma County
Bright Right installs Level 2 home charging sized to your vehicle and, just as importantly, to your panel's actual available capacity. We run the dedicated 240-volt circuit, mount and commission the charger, and handle the permit — installing Tesla Wall Connectors, universal J1772 and NACS units, and hardwired or plug-in setups across Rohnert Park, Petaluma, and Santa Rosa. The detail most homeowners don't hear until it's too late is that many Sonoma County panels can't support a Level 2 charger without a service upgrade first, so we run a load calculation before you buy equipment, not after. We can also pre-wire a second circuit if a second EV is anywhere in your future.
Standby Generators & Backup Power
Public safety power shutoffs are a fact of life in Sonoma County, and so are winter storms that take lines down in the hills. We install whole-house standby generators with automatic transfer switches that pick up the house within seconds of an outage, wire inlets and manual transfer switches for portable generators, and add whole-house surge protection so your equipment isn't damaged when the utility comes back online. We'll also tell you honestly which tier makes sense — not every home in Cotati or Penngrove needs a whole-house unit when a critical-loads panel that keeps the refrigerator, well pump, internet, and a few circuits alive costs a fraction as much.
Solar & Battery Systems
We handle new photovoltaic installation, battery storage, system additions, and remove-and-replace work when a roof needs attention or a system has failed — plus service on existing arrays that aren't producing what they should. If you inherited a solar system with the house and nobody can tell you how it's wired or whether it's still under warranty, we can assess it and give you a clear picture. Battery storage in particular has changed the math for Sonoma County homeowners: between shifting utility rate structures under NEM 3.0 and the frequency of outages, a battery paired with existing solar is often a better investment than adding more panels.
Interior & Exterior Lighting
Recessed and can lighting, full LED retrofits, under-cabinet lighting, dimmer and smart-switch installation, fixture and chandelier hanging, landscape lighting, and security and motion-sensor lighting for homes across Rohnert Park and the University District. On the commercial side we handle lighting retrofits for offices, retail spaces, and warehouses along the Commerce Boulevard corridor, including the fixture and control changes that come with California Title 24 compliance. Lighting is one of the few electrical upgrades where the difference is immediately visible, and it's frequently the cheapest way to make a dated room feel finished.
Electrical Troubleshooting & Repair
Breakers that trip for no obvious reason, circuits that go dead, lights that flicker when the dryer starts, outlets that no longer hold a plug, GFCIs that won't reset, a faint burning smell you can't locate. These are the calls where experience shows. We trace a fault to its real source instead of swapping parts and billing for guesses, which is why our repairs hold and why we get called in behind other contractors who couldn't find the problem. In older Sonoma County homes the cause is often a failing backstab connection, a corroded neutral, a rodent-damaged run in a crawlspace, or a decades-old junction box buried behind drywall.
Custom Homes & New Construction
Full electrical for ground-up residential builds, major remodels, and additions throughout Sonoma, Marin, and Napa County — load calculations and plan review, service and meter setup, rough-in, trim, and final inspection. We work with general contractors, designers, and owner-builders, and we're comfortable on high-end custom projects near Sonoma State University where the lighting design, low-voltage layout, and smart controls all have to be coordinated before a single wire goes in. Getting the details right at rough-in is what keeps a home safe and functional for the next forty years — and it's far cheaper than fixing it after the drywall is up.
Commercial Electrical & Tenant Improvement
Service upgrades, panel and subpanel work, dedicated circuits for equipment, lighting retrofits, EV charging for employee and customer parking, and full tenant-improvement electrical for offices, retail, restaurants, and light industrial space along Redwood Drive and beyond. We understand a commercial job runs on someone else's schedule, so we work around business hours when the scope requires it. From a single dedicated circuit to a complete build-out, you get one licensed contractor coordinating permits, PG&E, and inspection — with clear pricing and a clean, code-compliant result.
