Expert Electrical Panel Repair and Upgrades
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s power system. We service, repair, and replace both modern breaker panels and older fuse boxes. If you notice discoloration, strange noises, or you’ve run out of space in your current panel, it’s time to consider an upgrade. Our technicians will ensure your new or repaired panel meets safety standards and provides enough power for your home’s current and future needs.
Fast and Accurate Electrical Troubleshooting
Don’t let unexplained power issues go unchecked. We quickly diagnose and resolve common residential problems like tripped breakers, faulty switches, and dead outlets. Whether it's a single room without power or a more complex issue, our team is trained to find the root cause and restore functionality.
Transfer Switches for Portable Generators
We specialize in installing transfer switches that allow you to safely connect a portable generator to your home’s electrical system. While we don’t install standby generators, our transfer switch installations ensure you have power during outages—without risking your family’s safety or damaging your equipment.
GFCI and AFCI Protection for Kitchens and Bathrooms
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) and Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs) are essential for protecting your home from electrical shock and fire. We install and replace these life-saving devices, especially in high-risk areas like kitchens and bathrooms. If your outlets are outdated or not functioning properly, we’ll make sure everything is up to code and safe for everyday use.
Home Inspection and Code Violation Repairs
Failed a home inspection? We can help. We work directly from home inspectors’ reports to complete the necessary electrical repairs—usually within a week, depending on availability. Our team coordinates with you to ensure all violations are corrected quickly, allowing you to move forward with your home sale or renovation.
Energy-Efficient LED Lighting Upgrades
Switching to LED lighting is one of the fastest ways to save on your energy bills. We handle complete lighting upgrades, often completing the job in just one day. While we don’t offer design consultations, we handle the wiring and installation for all types of residential LED lighting—giving your home a longer-lasting, more efficient glow.
Dedicated TV, Appliance, and 120/220V Circuits
Whether you're mounting a new TV, installing a garage tool station, or upgrading appliances, we install the dedicated circuits your devices need to run safely and reliably. We frequently install 220V circuits for dryers, ovens, garbage disposals, and other large appliances. Need wiring only? We’ve got you covered—placement planning is left to you.
Stylish and Secure Indoor and Outdoor Lighting
From chandeliers and recessed lighting to under-cabinet LEDs, our team installs all types of indoor lighting features. Outdoors, we offer both decorative and security solutions—including low-voltage walkway lighting, motion sensor lights, and Ring-compatible doorbell and light systems. Your home’s curb appeal and safety are in good hands.
Ceiling, Attic, and Exhaust Fan Installations
Improve airflow and reduce energy costs with professional fan installation. We install ceiling, attic, and exhaust fans—even in rooms without existing wiring. While we don’t upgrade attic fans to newer models, we’ll install the fan of your choice according to your preferences and manufacturer instructions.
Smoke Detector Installation and Repair
We install both hardwired and battery-powered smoke detectors, including combination units with carbon monoxide detection. While we don’t handle app-connected smart detectors, we take care of traditional units and assist when older detectors start beeping or need replacement. Your family’s safety is always our priority.
