From our San Diego shop.
We dispatch from 8733 Magnolia Ave #105, Santee, CA. Most days we're already in the area on another job. After-hours emergencies, we roll a truck.
Response time
San Diego: Most days we're already in the area. Same-day appointments when capacity allows. After-hours emergencies dispatched when a licensed electrician is available, a real person at the local shop answers and tells you the ETA on the call.
Call nowMost Jamul smart-home projects begin as a pile of apps and remotes the owner wants unified into one system. Jamul is a semi-rural East County community with larger lots, custom and older homes, and a mix of well water and septic in many properties. Fire-zone status affects outdoor electrical, and power-shutoff events during fire weather (PSPS) make backup power planning a regular conversation. Many older Jamul homes lack a neutral wire at the switch box, which stops most smart switches cold; as licensed electricians we run the neutral so the automation actually works.
We unify it under one hub so lighting, climate, locks, and audio run from one app, and we handle the part an AV-only installer cannot: the neutrals, circuits, and in-wall runs. From our San Diego shop, Jamul is part of our regular San Diego County service area.

“Sebastian and his colleague did an excellent job installing three GFCI outlets in my bathrooms. Their work was extremely precise, and no drywall repair was needed. They were also very considerate about keeping costs down by choosing the most efficient wiring approach. Overall,...”
“Very professional, courteous and great attention to detail. Kevin was very quick to answer all of my questions and he was very educational and patient. I highly recommend Keil for any work.”

- WHO TO HIRE
Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.
For smart home installation & automation, here's the honest comparison. We'd tell you the same thing if we weren't trying to win the job.
Keil Electric
A licensed electrician
Licensed electrician walks every job. Veteran-owned, family-run.
Permits pulled and inspections coordinated when required by the AHJ
5/10-year + lifetime warranty in writing. Parts and labor. Transfers with the home.
Fully insured + workers' comp on every crew
The price you sign is the price you pay
A handyman
Unlicensed for electrical
No state electrical license. Can do simple swaps but not panel work, rewires, or service upgrades.
No permits. Work won't pass inspection if the city audits it later.
No structured warranty. "Call me if something breaks" isn't enforceable.
If something they did causes a fire, your homeowner's insurance can deny the claim.
Cash discount may show up on the invoice.
DIY
Doing it yourself
Cheap, but only if everything goes right. Most electrical work involves load calc, code, and permitting.
A failed inspection means redoing the work. Selling the home later, the buyer's inspector flags it.
No warranty if something fails. Replacement is on you.
Live wiring is a real safety hazard. Most fatal home electrical accidents are DIY.
If you know what you're doing, fine. If you don't, call us first.
Common questions for Smart Home Installation & Automation in Jamul
Will one app control everything in my Jamul home?
Yes. A Control4 or Savant hub gives you one interface for lights, climate, locks, and audio, not five separate apps.
Do smart switches work in older Jamul homes without a neutral?
Sometimes not. As licensed electricians we can run a neutral, which an AV-only installer cannot. We check during the walk.
What happens during a power outage?
Core wiring reverts to manual and automation returns with power. We can add battery backup for critical systems.
Can I start small and expand later?
Yes. Start with lighting and climate in Jamul, then add shades and audio onto the same hub over time.
Do you program it or just install hardware?
Both. We install, program the scenes, and walk you through it. Licensed CA #1109913, call (619) 771-1114.
