Our Electrical Services
From a flickering light to a full rewire, it's all done to code and inspected.
Emergency Electrical Service
Sparking outlets, burning smells, or a dead panel get priority response. If it feels unsafe, treat it as urgent and call.
Panel Upgrades
Federal Pacific, Zinsco, and maxed-out 100-amp panels swapped for modern 200-amp service. The single biggest safety upgrade for an older home.
EV Charger Installation
Dedicated 240-volt circuits for home EV charging, sized to your panel's capacity. Permitted and inspected so your insurance stays happy.

Recessed lights, exterior security lighting, and fixture swaps throughout the home. Lake humidity eats cheap outdoor fixtures — we install ones that last.
Wiring & Rewiring
Knob-and-tube replacement, aluminum wiring remediation, and new circuits for additions. We replace outdated wiring to meet today's code — one room at a time or the whole house at once.
