Houston Residential Electrician FAQs

Are you a licensed and insured electrician?
Yes, we are a licensed electrician in Houston with Texas Electrical Contractor License #31068 and carry full insurance. As professional residential electrical contractors, we follow all safety regulations and electrical codes to keep your home safe.
Do you provide free estimates for residential electrical work?
Yes! We offer free, clear estimates for all home electrical projects. Our residential electrician team will assess your needs, explain what needs to be done, and give you a firm price before we start any work.
How long does it typically take to install a standby generator?
Most home generator installations take 1-2 days. The time depends on your home’s electrical system and the generator size. Our generator installation specialists will mount it, connect everything, and test it to ensure proper operation.
Can you install an EV charger in my older home?
Yes, we can install EV chargers in homes of all ages. For older homes, we first check your electrical panel to see if it can handle the extra power. Our EV charger installation experts will ensure your system works safely, regardless of your home’s age.
How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?
You might need an electrical panel upgrade if you notice circuit breakers that trip often, flickering lights, burning smells near the panel, warm outlets, or if your panel is over 25 years old. If you still have a fuse box or plan to add major appliances or an EV charger, a breaker box replacement is likely necessary.
What's involved in a whole house rewire?
A whole house rewiring includes removing old electrical wiring and replacing it with new, safe home wiring throughout your property. We also update outlets, switches, and fixtures. Our residential electricians try to minimize wall damage, but some access points in walls and ceilings are usually needed.
Do you handle electrical permits for residential work?
Yes, we handle all the permits your project needs. This makes sure your electrical installation is properly documented, inspected, and meets all local codes—protecting your safety and home value.
How much does it cost to install a whole-house surge protector?
Whole-house surge protector installation usually costs between $300-$700. The price depends on your electrical panel type and how much protection you need. It’s a good investment that can save you thousands by protecting your electronics, appliances, and electrical systems.
Can you help with light switch wiring and outlet installation?
Yes, we can install and repair all types of switches and outlets in your home. This includes standard outlets, GFCI outlets, dimmer switches, smart switches, and multi-way light switch wiring. We ensure everything is installed safely and works correctly.
How often should I have my home's electrical system inspected?
We suggest getting an electrical safety inspection every 3-5 years for newer homes and every 1-2 years for homes over 25 years old. Regular electrical inspections help find potential safety issues before they become dangerous or expensive problems.
