ASL
Your local electrician in Tustin
Tustin was founded in 1868 and incorporated on September 21, 1927, which makes Old Town Tustin one of the oldest neighborhoods in Orange County. Post-WWII tracts followed, and by 1970 about 22,000 people lived here. Tustin Ranch came later, and Tustin Legacy is now rising on the former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin, which closed in 1997. Today the city has about 80,000 residents.
Few cities have such a wide spread of home ages. Old Town houses may have wiring from many eras, 1960s tracts often have original panels and small services, Tustin Ranch homes need upgrades rather than repairs, and Tustin Legacy homes are brand new. We tailor the work to whichever kind of home you have.

From our Google reviews
“He quickly diagnosed that builder had improperly secured the electrical wiring inside of the outlet causing arching and finally a complete meltdown. New outlet is in place. Dishwasher and garbage disposal back up and running.”
“I had an emergency and ASL Electric sent Walter out within 3 hours. He identified and resolved the problem immediately. We were under construction and he patiently waited while others completed their assignment and when the time was right he worked quickly and cleanly.”
City or County permit in Tustin?
Homes inside the City of Tustin are permitted by the City's Building Division. North Tustin is unincorporated, so permits there come from the County of Orange. Both are served by SCE. We check your address, pull the right permit and schedule the inspection either way.
Newer homes at Tustin Legacy and Tustin Ranch
Homes in Tustin Ranch and Tustin Legacy usually have modern panels and protection, so the work is about adding rather than repairing: EV chargers, smart switches and doorbells, recessed lighting, ceiling fans and garage circuits. We still check capacity before adding major loads, and we pull permits so the work is documented with your home.
