What makes electrical services different in Cheviot Hills
Cheviot Hills sits south of Pico between Beverly Hills and Culver City — old-growth-tree blocks of 1920s and 1930s Spanish Revival, English cottage, and Mediterranean homes. Most homes have original infrastructure that meets the era's code, not today's. Kitchen, bathroom, and whole-home remodels here typically open walls to entirely new electrical service, repipes, and HVAC that didn't exist when the home was built.
Most Cheviot Hills homes were built before 1980. That means galvanized supply lines, undersized electrical panels, original gas runs, and rough-in plumbing that hasn't been touched in decades. Once walls open during a electrical services project, we expect to bring the underlying systems to current code — not as a surprise, as a plan.
Common architecture in Cheviot Hills: Spanish Colonial Revival, English Cottage, Mediterranean. We design westside renovations to honor what's already there while bringing systems and finishes up to current code and current standards.
