Company Overview

I am dedicated to the repair and upkeep of lighting and electrical installations in both residential and commercial settings in Santa Barbara. I troubleshoot electrical challenges and install fresh lighting fixtures as part of my work as an electrician. You can find a complete list of my services, offered on a time and materials basis, on my website.

In 1980, I established Republic Lighting to offer exceptional electrical services in Santa Barbara, and I have consistently performed all tasks myself to uphold my quality standards. I take care of a variety of homes and buildings in the county.

I am Charlie Mitchell, the electrician at Republic Lighting, serving Santa Barbara since 1980. I started this business because I have always had a passion for understanding how things function and resolving issues. I ask customers to create a list of items they want fixed, and I enjoy tackling that list until all tasks are completed to their satisfaction. Most of my customers have remained loyal for many years.

Charlie is the absolute best. He's done many small jobs for me and recently upgraded my house to 200A service after I got my electric vehicle. That was a massive job and it went perfectly. Charlie is easy going, responsible and very competent. When people from the County and the utility came over as part of the permitting process I could tell that he is well liked and respected by them.

HIGHLY recommend Charlie Mitchell for all electrical needs. He is a craftsman. We had him install kitchen pendant lights, replace older baseboard heaters & install new outdoor lights. He is neat & tidy, even drilling into wallboard & stucco. ... left no dust. Did not damage stucco. He knew where to go for older model baseboard heaters that fit our needs. 100% recommend Charlie!

Charlie was just what we needed when we lost power to part of our house over the weekend. He kindly came over on short notice on a Sunday to investigate the issue, gave a diagnosis, and made suggestions to avoid the issue in the future. We'd recommend him to any home or business owner in town!

Charlie is a GREAT electrician. He came out to our house on short notice on a Sunday after our power went out. He was thorough investigating the issue and clear and communicative about potential solutions. I will always trust Charlie as our electrician.

Charlie upgraded our electrical panel recently. He makes sure everything is done correctly, up to code, and will pass all inspections. He thoroughly understands the process with utilities providers. He also has a great relationship with utility providers, which helps the process run smoothly and efficiently. He made sure to leave a result that would last for the next 50 years. Thanks, Charlie!

If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable, reasonable electrician who cares about their work, Charlie is the way to go. Charlie helped us in the past four years on multiple projects big to small in our condo, including repairing breakers, installing new panels, new light fixtures, etc. The experience has always been positive.

Charlie would always understand our needs, and patiently explain details about what work is involved, what the budget would look like for different options, and what's the regulation and permit requirement before the work starts. This ensures that we don't encounter any surprises during the project. Then he executed the job beyond expectation and within budget. Our family and city inspectors have always been impressed by his meticulous job.

Overall, highly recommended!!!

More than just a lighting service, Charlie is our go-to electrician for all sorts of household things. He has re- wired our garage to accommodate an electric door-opener, and most recently he replaced a failing bathroom heater/exhaust fan. He is a real problem solver, and also a really nice guy! And my wife appreciates that he cleans up after the job.

It was a pleasure working with Charlie. He returned my call in a timely manner, showed up on time, gave us some great ideas, worked quickly and efficiently, did great quality work, was fastidious about not making a mess, was reasonably priced, and was all in all great to work with. Ours was just a small 2 day job but he treated it like it was the most important thing on his schedule. Would definitely recommend!
