"My house generator was serviced and the battery replaced. Everything about the experience was excellent. Mike, the technician, called when he was on the way, worked with me and my restrictions because of Covid, he was punctual, professional, explained thoroughly the work he did. For 8 years Anderson has serviced my generator and when needed during electric outage, my generator keeps my house running until the electric service is restored! Thank you for reliable service!"

"Johnathan & Steven (sp?) were prompt to arrange an appointment, prompt to arrive & thorough with their diagnosis and estimate. They installed a 220 line & breaker from our panel downstairs to our kitchen upstairs in preparation for replacing a gas stove with an electric glasstop. They were careful with our property & cleaned up thoroughly. They came in within a hundred dollars of their estimate, which I considered well-priced to begin with. I will use them again if we have any further electrical issues."

The modern suburban and small town home of today has become an ideal lightning target. The home owner would do well to recognize lightning for the destructive force that it is and protect against this major life and fire hazard.\n\nDonohue's Lightning Rods is based in Missouri, near the factory where most of the residential and commercial lightning rod supplies are manufactured. Jim travels regularly to Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New York. Call today to find out when Jim will be in your area. For installations outside Missouri, Kansas, or Texas, Jim waits until there are a few customers lined up, thus being able to provide the same quality services at affordable prices.\n\n\n**WE DO NOT DO ELECTRICAL SERVICES.** (ONLY LIGHTNING RODS)

"Jeffrey did an excellent job diagnosing and fixing an intermittent electrical issue in my basement that others couldn’t resolve. He was professional, thorough, and took the time to clearly explain the problem and my overall electrical setup. He identified the root cause and implemented a clean, reliable fix. I really appreciated his attention to detail and how methodical he was throughout the process. Highly recommend Jeffrey if you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and dependable."

"1) Quality: During his first visit Court began with a careful examination of our house and the pond that now provides heat in winter and air conditioning in summer. He walked through the basement examining the current installations and then came to the dining room to discuss his ideas. He had a large volume of pictures from many previous geothermal installations, some very much like ours. There is a quiet professionalism to Court that is so much better than salesmanship. His final design includes extra protections, and elegant features. For instance, this winter the furnace heats all our domestic hot water with otherwise wasted heat generated by the compressor. The house remains quietly at our set temperature regardless of the weather outside, hot or cold. 2) Customer Service: Court is always available on email or phone when I have questions. He and his partner came to tweak the system last week and spent time carefully correcting all the many adjustments available on a geothermal installation. 3) Value for money: I don't know what other firms would charge. Court has emphasized all along the federal tax rebates and electric company rebate, the services that will automatically arrive because of this system. He accurately predicted the overall savings this system brings compared to our oil and coal furnaces. I was amazed in the end how reasonable our total bill was for such a large installation. 4) Overall Impression: Court and his partner are professionals who know precisely what they are doing and get it done. I couldn't be happier with this heating-cooling pond-thermal system and the process that brought it to us."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Utica, you can safely tackle basic tasks like replacing a standard outlet cover, swapping out light bulbs, or resetting a tripped breaker—always after shutting off power at the main panel. Be cautious in older homes, as knob-and-tube wiring or aluminum wiring is common and can pose risks. If you notice flickering lights, buzzing outlets, or need an electrical panel upgrade, contact a licensed professional promptly.

Helpful?

Combining electrical work with other upgrades in Utica can be especially efficient, given the city’s older housing stock and frequent need for electrical panel upgrades. For example, if you’re planning a kitchen remodel or adding insulation, updating wiring or installing new outlets at the same time reduces disruption and helps ensure your home meets current safety codes. Coordinating projects also streamlines permit processes and minimizes contractor visits.

Helpful?

In Utica, the longevity of electrical work depends on using weather-resistant materials and ensuring all wiring is properly insulated against moisture and temperature swings. Hiring electricians familiar with local building types—like historic homes or those with finished basements—matters. Plan for future needs such as electric vehicle charging or smart home upgrades, and keep electrical panels accessible for regular maintenance and quick troubleshooting.

Helpful?

Utica’s climate means electrical systems need special attention. Inspect outdoor outlets and wiring for salt or moisture damage after winter, and check basement electrical panels for condensation in humid months. Test GFCI outlets seasonally and look for signs of rust or frayed wires, especially in homes over 40 years old. Schedule a professional electrical inspection every few years to catch issues unique to Utica’s older homes.

Helpful?

When planning electrical work in Utica, consider the prevalence of brick and stone homes, which can complicate wiring upgrades. The city’s freeze-thaw cycles may affect underground wiring, and some neighborhoods have strict guidelines for exterior electrical changes. Permit requirements are standard for most electrical panel upgrades or major rewiring, so factor in extra time for inspections and scheduling, especially during Utica’s busy renovation season.
