ASL
Property managers and HOA boards need an electrical contractor who answers the phone, shows up when promised, communicates clearly with residents and tenants, and does the work right the first time. ASL Electric provides electrical service for apartment communities, condominium and townhome HOAs, senior communities and commercial properties across Orange County, with a 24/7 emergency line for the calls that cannot wait.
We handle unit repairs and turnovers, common-area and site lighting, panel and meter bank work, GFCI and smoke alarm updates, EV charging for residents, and code corrections after inspections. Every job comes with an upfront price, clear communication with your office and respectful treatment of residents in their homes.

Why the right electrical partner matters
For managed properties, electrical problems affect resident satisfaction, safety and liability. Slow responses and poor communication create complaints and repeat calls. A dependable contractor who responds quickly, explains the issue, provides upfront pricing and completes the work cleanly saves management time and keeps residents happy.

Lighting maintenance
Common-area and site lighting repairs and LED conversions.
Capital projects
Panels, meter banks, lighting and EV charging projects.
Planning capital projects
Beyond day-to-day repairs, many communities face larger electrical projects: aging panels and meter banks, outdated common-area and site lighting, and growing resident demand for EV charging. Planning these as capital projects, with surveys and phased budgets, avoids emergency replacements and spreads cost over time.
We survey the property, prioritize items by safety and urgency, and provide proposals that boards and owners can use to plan.
Senior communities and Laguna Woods Village
Senior communities need extra care: clear communication, fast response, and attention to smoke and CO alarms, lighting and accessibility. In Laguna Woods Village, electrical work inside a manor generally requires Mutual Consent and, for many items, a City of Laguna Woods permit, and ceilings contain radiant heating elements that must be avoided.
ASL Electric has worked in Laguna Woods Village and understands these requirements.
Unit turnover electrical checklist
Between residents is the best time to catch small electrical problems before they become service calls. A turnover check typically includes testing every outlet and GFCI, replacing damaged or worn devices and plates, checking that breakers are labeled, testing smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and replacing any past their date, confirming fixtures and exhaust fans work, and looking for signs of overloaded circuits or tampering.
We can perform these checks as part of your turnover process and report back with any items that need repair and their upfront prices.
Common electrical issues in multifamily properties
Across apartment communities, condominiums and HOAs, the same electrical issues come up again and again: tripped GFCIs at outdoor and laundry outlets, failed photocells on site lighting, exit signs and emergency lights that fail their tests, worn outlets and switches in older units, overloaded circuits from window air conditioners and space heaters, and aging panels in buildings from the 1960s and 1970s.
Because we see these issues regularly, we can often diagnose them quickly and carry the common parts on our trucks. For recurring problems, such as a lighting circuit that keeps failing, we look for the root cause rather than just resetting it, so you are not paying for the same call twice.
“Cory helped me with my electrical inspection and a few weeks later installed GFCIs in my units. Cory was extremely professional and likeable. He treated my tenants and me with complete respect. He wore shoe covers, cleaned up after he finished and each GFCI was perfectly installed.”
What affects the cost of property electrical work
Cost depends on the scope of each job, access and scheduling, the number of units or fixtures involved, after-hours requirements, permits and utility coordination for panel and meter work, and equipment such as lifts for pole lighting. We provide upfront pricing for every job and itemized proposals for larger projects.

Electrical for Property Managers & HOAs across Orange County
We serve apartment communities, HOAs and commercial properties throughout Orange County, from Irvine and Costa Mesa to Aliso Viejo, Mission Viejo and Huntington Beach. Many condominium and apartment communities built in the 1970s and 1980s are now facing aging panels, meter banks and lighting, while newer communities are fielding resident requests for EV charging.
We have worked in Laguna Woods Village and understand its Mutual Consent process. One rental owner had our electrician complete an electrical inspection and later install GFCIs in their units, wearing shoe covers, cleaning up and treating the tenants with complete respect.
