Yes, easy one. Flat price covers the fan, the brace and balancing it. I'll check those outlets while I'm there.
I have Thursday 10am or Saturday 9am.
Thursday works!
See you then. I'll text when I'm on the way.
Always Boris. Never a call center.
PowerFix LA is Boris, a local electrical and handyman pro who knows LA houses: 1920s Spanish revivals, Craftsman bungalows, Valley ranches with two-prong outlets and hillside homes with ceilings that were never meant for a fan.
- The price is the price
- You get a flat price before any work starts. If something unexpected turns up behind the wall, Boris stops and asks first.
- This week, not next month
- Most jobs are booked within a few days, Saturdays included.
- The guy you text shows up
- No call center and no random tech. Boris quotes it, does it, and answers for it.
- Cleaner than he found it
- Drop cloths down, shoe covers on, old fixtures and boxes hauled away.
- Straight about limits
- Panel upgrades and new circuits need a licensed electrician and a permit. Boris will tell you straight when a job needs one.

Questions people ask
Something else? Text Boris.
How do I get a price?
Text Boris a photo of the job and a line about what you want done. For most fixture, fan and outlet jobs he can give you a firm price right from the photo — no visit needed just to quote.
Is the price I'm quoted the price I pay?
Yes. You get a flat price before any work starts. If Boris opens a ceiling and finds something unexpected, he stops, shows you, and you decide — nothing gets added without your OK.
Do I need to buy the fixture or fan myself?
Either way works. Most people pick their own fixture online or at Home Depot or Lowe’s. If you'd rather not, Boris can recommend options and pick them up.
How soon can you come?
Most jobs are scheduled within the same week, often in two or three days. Saturday appointments are available.
What electrical work don't you do?
Boris sticks to repairs, replacements and installs on existing wiring — fixtures, fans, devices, controls and low-voltage lighting. Panel upgrades, new circuits, EV chargers and rewiring need a licensed electrical contractor and a permit, and he'll tell you honestly if your job falls in that bucket.
Are you a licensed electrician?
No. Boris is a handyman, not a licensed contractor. California allows handymen to take on minor jobs under $1,000 including labor and materials, which covers most fixture, fan, outlet and switch work. If your job is bigger or needs a permit, he'll say so up front and point you to a licensed electrician.
Is there a minimum?
There's a small minimum per visit, which is why it pays to bundle. Put together a list — three light fixtures, a fan and a couple of dead outlets — and knock it all out in one trip, as long as the total stays under $1,000 with materials.
How do I pay?
When the job is done and you're happy with it. Zelle, Venmo, card or check.
