Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business

"We recently had our electrical panel replaced and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first call, Mike was incredibly informative and responsive. He took the time to walk us through the entire process—from permitting and scheduling to what to expect on installation day. Every question we had (and we had a lot!) was answered clearly and patiently. On the day of the job, Mike’s team arrived right on time. They were professional, efficient, and courteous throughout. They took great care to keep the work area clean and were respectful of our home. The replacement was completed on schedule, and the quality of the work was top-notch. Everything was labeled clearly, and Mike even followed up afterward to make sure everything was running smoothly. We really appreciated the transparency with pricing—no surprises, just honest and fair. It’s clear that Mike and his crew take pride in their work and genuinely care about their customers. "

"I first used Eddie to deal with a problem with a breaker and was advised that the panel itself should be replaced due to the age of the panel. Work was performed in a timely manner, and we now have much cleaner power with less chance of a breaker randomly tripping/failing... Am very satisfied with the work and response. Highly recommended!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The wrong-sized wire can lead to several safety hazards, including structural fires, surges, power outages from tripped breakers, and electrocution. It’s important to follow the American Wire Gauge system and the National Electrical Code guidelines to safely wire a home. Electrical wiring is not safe for homeowners to handle and is best left to a licensed electrician.

You should install a 25-amp breaker for your outdoor electrical outlet. If your outlet is only for use in an outdoor kitchen area for standard appliances, then a 15- to 20-amp circuit breaker should work. However, you will need to install a GFCI receptacle or breaker to ensure that the breaker trips on contact with water.

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.

While not always necessary, wiring your circuit breaker in a certain way can ease both the installation process and use afterward. For starters, you’ll need to install the electrical panel so that the main service knockout aligns with the cable conduit. If they aren’t aligned, you may not have sufficient working space to finish running the wires. Using cable trays, on the other hand, gives you a bit more freedom to and flexibility in where and which direction you install the wires. At the end of the day, the power flow will be the same whether the cords run up or down.

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.
