Is Your Riverside Home Still Running a Federal Pacific or Zinsco Panel?
If your home was built before the early 1990s, there’s a real chance it still has one. Both brands are documented to have breakers that can fail to trip during an overload — meaning the safety feature that’s supposed to protect your home in a surge simply doesn’t fire. It’s a known issue, not a scare tactic.
It's also becoming a coverage problem, not just a safety one:
more insurance carriers are now declining to renew — or refusing to write — policies on homes with these panels, sometimes requiring replacement before coverage continues.
You can check yourself in under a minute:
look for “Federal Pacific,” “FPE,” “Stab-Lok,” “Zinsco,” or “GTE-Sylvania” printed on your panel door or main breaker. If you see any of those names, or you’re not sure, we’ll come take a look — free.
Why Riverside Homeowners Trust Us With Panel Work
We inspect before we quote:
A free look at your panel and wiring before you get a number — not a phone guess.
We tell you if you only need a repair:
Not every issue needs a full replacement. If a repair solves it, that’s what we quote.
Fully permitted, every time:
Panel work requires a permit and inspection in Riverside — we handle both, so nothing comes back to bite you at resale.
0% financing for 12 months:
Full panel replacements and upgrades, spread out with no interest.
What You Can Expect From Our Team in Your Home
.
Respectful of your home, every time
Floor protection on every job, work area cleaned up before we leave — not treated as optional.
.
Licensed, permitted, and insured — not the cheaper unlicensed option
Every job is done under our C-10 license, with required permits pulled and full workers’ comp and liability coverage.
.
Background-checked and drug-tested technicians, not whoever's available
Every technician who enters your home passes screening before they’re hired — the same standard we’d want for our own families.
.
Available when you actually need us
We focus on repair and service work, not new construction — so a technician is available when something breaks, not booked out on a job site.
.
Backed by real support, not working alone
Every technician has field supervisors and office support behind them, so a second opinion or a special-ordered part is a phone call away, not a delay.
.
Pay however works for you
Cash, check, credit, or debit — no restrictions on how you settle up when the job’s done.

Answers Before You Call
How do I know if I actually need a full replacement or just a repair?
We won’t know for certain until we look — that’s why the inspection is free. Many issues that feel serious (a single tripping breaker, a warm spot on the panel) turn out to be smaller fixes.
How do I check if I have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel?
Look at the panel door or main breaker for the brand name. If you see “Federal Pacific,” “FPE,” “Stab-Lok,” “Zinsco,” or “GTE-Sylvania” — or you’re not sure — we’ll check it for free.
Do I need a permit for panel work?
Yes, panel replacement and most sub-panel installs require a permit in Riverside. We handle the permit and inspection as part of the job.
