Electrical Questions, Answered

My house is new. Is the electrical system automatically safe?

Not necessarily. New construction should meet code, but mistakes happen, and a new home's needs change as you add an EV charger, hot tub, or major appliances.

My breaker keeps tripping. Is it defective?

Usually not. A breaker trips to protect your wiring from overload, a short, or a fault. If it trips again after a reset, call a licensed electrician.

If a wire is not hot, is it safe to touch?

No. A wire that seems dead can become live through another circuit or a mistake elsewhere. Treat every wire as live until a licensed electrician verifies otherwise.

Can a handyman do the same work for less?

They may quote less, but electrical work often requires permits, inspections, and licensing for good reason. Unpermitted work can create safety hazards and problems with insurance and resale.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and contact the power company when work involves your meter.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. Most of our work is bid-based, so you know the scope and cost before we start.

Do you offer emergency service?

Yes.

Do you install solar panels?

No. We are happy to handle electrical work around a solar project, such as panel upgrades.
