Mahomet's trusted source for licensed electrical services — from outlet repairs to full panel upgrades, done right the first time.
From panel upgrades to EV charger installation, our licensed electricians handle every residential and commercial electrical need.
Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.
We handle the full installation process, from securing the fan-rated electrical box and running new wiring to balancing the blades and programming remote controls.
EV chargers draw significant power and require proper circuit protection. Our licensed electricians ensure your installation meets NEC code, manufacturer specs, and local requirements.
Outdoor wiring must withstand moisture, temperature swings, and soil contact. Our electricians use UL-listed wet-rated fixtures, GFCI-protected circuits, and proper burial depths to ensure lasting safety.
Ignoring electrical problems lets them get worse. Loose connections, arcing wires, and overloaded circuits cause thousands of house fires each year. Our licensed team fixes issues safely, the first time.
Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, making professional detector placement critical. Properly installed CO detectors give your family early warning before dangerous levels build up.
We install a dedicated 240V circuit from your panel to the equipment pad, wire the GFCI disconnect within sight of the unit, bond all metal components, and verify ground fault protection.
We mount your Ring doorbell at the optimal height, run low-voltage wiring from your existing doorbell transformer, and configure the app so you are up and running in one visit.
Our electricians locate the nearest power source, run new wiring through your walls, install the outlet box, and test the circuit to confirm safe, reliable operation.
An upgraded electrical panel supports modern power demands, prevents tripped breakers, and can increase your home value. Stop managing an overloaded system and power your home with confidence.
Recessed lights create a clean, modern look while flooding your rooms with even illumination. LED recessed fixtures also cut your lighting energy use by up to 75 percent.
We install hardwired smoke detectors in every required location, interconnect them so all units sound together, add battery backup, and test the full system before we leave.
We examine your panel, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding system, and GFCI protection room by room, then deliver a detailed written report with findings and recommended corrections.
We remove old fixtures, upgrade the electrical box if needed, connect and mount the new fixture securely, and test dimmer compatibility so your lights perform exactly as expected.
Aluminum wiring installed in homes from the 1960s and 1970s is a documented fire hazard. Replacing it with modern copper wiring dramatically reduces your risk and may lower your insurance premiums.
We test the suspect breaker with calibrated equipment, check for loose bus connections and signs of arcing, replace the faulty breaker with a matching UL-listed unit, and load-test the circuit.
Smart devices need proper wiring to function reliably. Many older homes lack neutral wires in switch boxes, causing flickering or device failure. Our electricians verify and upgrade wiring so your smart home works right.
Electrical problems often hide behind walls where they quietly worsen. Our licensed electricians follow a systematic diagnostic process to find issues before they become fire hazards or safety threats.
We install a Type 2 surge protection device directly at your electrical panel, wire it to a dedicated double-pole breaker, and verify the grounding system that makes it effective.
Professionally wired security cameras deliver reliable 24/7 recording without Wi-Fi dropouts or battery hassles. Protect your home and family with a surveillance system you can count on.
We review your project requirements, pull necessary permits, install wiring and devices using commercial-grade materials, and schedule the final inspection to close out the permit properly.
Commercial electrical work requires strict code compliance, proper load calculations, and coordination with inspectors and general contractors. Our licensed commercial electricians deliver permitted, inspected, and insured work on every project.
Keep your home powered through any outage with a professionally installed backup generator. Enjoy uninterrupted comfort and security when the grid goes down.
