Service questions
Emergency Electrician: How fast can an emergency electrician get to me?
We dispatch 24/7. In most service areas an electrician is on the way within the hour for true emergencies such as no power, sparking or burning smells.
Electrical Panel Upgrade: How much does an electrical panel upgrade cost?
Panel upgrade cost depends on amperage, panel location, meter base condition and permit requirements. We give a firm written price after a free on-site assessment.
Whole House Rewiring: How much does whole house rewiring cost?
Rewiring cost depends on the home's square footage, number of circuits, attic and crawlspace access and finish repairs. We provide a detailed line-item quote after a walkthrough.
Generator Installation: What size generator do I need for my house?
A typical Texas home with central air needs a 18–26 kW standby generator. We calculate your actual load and recommend the right size.
EV Charger Installation: How much does EV charger installation cost?
Cost depends on distance from the panel, whether a panel upgrade is needed and the charger model. Most straightforward garage installs are completed in a few hours with an upfront price.
Outlet & Switch Installation: Where are GFCI outlets required?
Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, laundry areas, unfinished basements, outdoors and anywhere within six feet of a sink.
Lighting Installation: How many recessed lights do I need?
A good rule is one 4–6 inch LED can per 4–6 square feet of ceiling in living areas; we lay out spacing for even light.
Ceiling Fan Installation: Can a ceiling fan go where a light is now?
Usually yes, but the box must be replaced with a fan-rated box. We handle that as part of the install.
Electrical Repair & Troubleshooting: Why do my lights flicker?
Causes range from a loose neutral, an overloaded circuit, a failing breaker or a utility issue. We isolate the cause safely.
Electrical Inspection: How long does an electrical inspection take?
A thorough residential inspection takes 1–2 hours depending on home size.
Whole House Surge Protection: Does a power strip protect my home?
No. Power strips only protect what is plugged in and wear out silently. Panel-level protection covers every circuit.
Dedicated Circuit Installation: Which appliances need a dedicated circuit?
Ranges, ovens, dryers, microwaves, dishwashers, refrigerators, HVAC, garbage disposals, EV chargers and most 240V equipment.
Smoke Detector & Doorbell Wiring: How often should smoke detectors be replaced?
Every 10 years; CO detectors every 5–7 years depending on the model.
Hot Tub & Pool Electrical: What electrical does a hot tub need?
Most require a dedicated 50 or 60 amp 240V GFCI circuit with a disconnect within sight of the spa.
Commercial Electrician: Do you work after business hours?
Yes — nights and weekends to avoid disrupting your operations.
Office Electrical Installation: Can you work nights or weekends?
Yes, most office work is scheduled off-hours.
LED Lighting Retrofit: How much can LED save?
LED uses 50–75% less energy than fluorescent or halogen and lasts years longer, reducing maintenance.
Smart Home Wiring: Do smart switches need a neutral wire?
Most do. We add neutrals or install no-neutral compatible switches.
Solar & Battery Backup Electrical: Do I need a panel upgrade for solar?
Often, to meet the 120% rule for backfeed. We evaluate your panel during the assessment.
New Construction Electrical: Do you work with general contractors?
Yes — we partner with GCs, builders and homeowners acting as their own GC.
