Panel upgrades, rewiring, lighting and EV chargers, done by licensed electricians who show up on time, quote upfront and leave your home cleaner than they found it.
A flicker, a buzz, and the house goes dark. The breaker won't reset, and there's a faint smell of something hot in the basement.
10:31 PM · The diagnosis
Find the fault.
Marcus arrives 49 minutes after the call. Headlamp on, meter in hand, he tests every circuit until he finds it: a failed 40-year-old breaker and a scorched bus bar.
11:15 PM · The rewire
Done right.
Power locked out, then a new 200-amp panel with every conductor torqued to spec, labelled and dressed straight. No shortcuts, even at midnight.

Questions
Good questions.
Do you really charge the same at 2 a.m.?
Yes. Our flat rates don't change at night, on weekends or on holidays. The price you approve is the price you pay.
How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?
Breakers that trip often, a fuse box, a panel over 30 years old, warm or buzzing panels, or plans for an EV charger, heat pump or addition. We'll run a load calculation before recommending anything.
Do you pull permits and handle inspections?
Always, on every job that needs one. We schedule the inspection and meet the inspector so you don't have to take time off.
How long does an EV charger install take?
Most Level 2 installs take 3 to 5 hours. If your panel needs more capacity, we'll tell you upfront and can often fit a load-management device instead of a full upgrade.
Are your electricians employees?
Every one. Licensed, background-checked, drug-tested and trained in-house. We never subcontract.
