Why Should I Hire a Licensed Electrician?

Attempting electrical work yourself can result in a fire, shock, or electrocution. Our electrical contractors are state-licensed and fully trained to safely perform any electrical installation, repair, or upgrade. They’re prompt, courteous, and professional, as well as available 24/7.

Do I Need to Buy My Own Electrical Components?

We supply all required parts and equipment. Our electrical technicians arrive with all the necessary components to eliminate guesswork and ensure the job is done right the first time. The cost of parts is included in our initial estimate.

How Do I Know If an Outlet Is Overloaded?

If you have too many devices plugged into one outlet and are relying on power strips and extension cords, you may have an overloaded outlet. It is a fire hazard. To avoid trouble, we can add more outlets, install more circuits, or even update your electrical panel if necessary.

How Do I Know I Have a Bad Electrical Panel?

The electrical panel is the control center for your electrical system. If it sparks, feels hot, emits a burning odor, or looks scorched, it should be replaced. Other signs of trouble include frequently tripping breakers or flickering or dimming lights. Our electricians can replace and upgrade your breaker panel in just a few hours.
