"We had a unique electrical repair in our septic tank splice box, and HES showed up and had the job done in a little over an hour. They were great at communication and very professional."
"Jeremy was the contractor who installed my Solar power system on my garage. He was fast, professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Left no mess and was able to answer all my questions. He's going to be my go-to guy for any electrical work I may need in the future."
"I had a great experience with WATTZU ELECTRIC INC. They installed new lights and outlets in my home, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. The crew was professional, showed up on time, and paid attention to the details. Everything was done safely, neatly, and exactly how I wanted it. It’s hard to find reliable electricians these days, but I’d definitely recommend them to anyone needing electrical work."
"High level of integrity & honesty; clear & mutually-respectful, timely communication; conscientious, diligent & focused workers with high skill level; passed all state electrical inspections related to work the first time. This job included electrical wiring & circuit upgrades for the kitchen too."
"The team arrived as scheduled. Alex & Tyler worked well as a team. They installed ceiling fans which we had purchased ahead of time. They had to put in fan boxes for all 3. Also we had to replace 2 bathroom fans. They supplied one of those. Lastly we needed outlets on our porch. They were able to get all this done in about half a day. We were super impressed with the ease of setting up the assessment, scheduling the work and completion of the job. The prices fit our budget. We were not pressured into additional work. In the future we are planning more upgrades around our place and we will be calling Mr Electric again. Than you Alex & Tyler for doing such a great job."

"I'm very impressed. My house was built in 2024 and they came out to do the electrical. Most of it was done, but do to things needing to be done before they could finish, it became a long process. My husband passed away, and they had to work with me. They have been with me along the way. It's now 2026 and they are finishing everything up. I am thankful for honest people. I would recommend this company to people. Kim Campbell Springdale Wa."

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.
Before you start doing anything else, you must call your electric company to confirm their process. It is technically their meter that you’re moving, so there’s really no such thing as free rein. Moving the meter generally involves disconnecting power from the utility company, disconnecting the cables that run into your electrical panel, and dismounting the meter assembly. Once uninstalled, a handyperson will remount and reconnect the wiring in its new location.
If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.
The most common reason a GFCI outlet would trip even when nothing is plugged in is if there’s a problem at the circuit breaker end. This could be an overloaded circuit, with too many appliances plugged into it, or another type of fault. If a GFCI outlet keeps tripping, it can also be because it is faulty and needs replacing.
If you’re interested in exploring other avenues to completely upgrade your electrical panel, it’s also possible to add a sub-panel, which is a smaller panel that connects to what you currently have in place. This way, you can add additional circuits without having to swap out your main panel.
