Reviews
What neighbors say.
“Panel upgrade done in a day, every breaker labeled, inspection passed first time. They even coordinated the power company.”
Dana R. · Sample review (fictional)
“EV charger in the garage without a panel upgrade. They did the load calculation and showed us we had room.”
Marcus T. · Sample review (fictional)
“Breaker that tripped at random for a year. They found a loose connection behind a dresser in an hour.”
Priya S. · Sample review (fictional)
“Standby generator kicked on in the storm last week before we noticed the power was out. Worth every penny.”
Greg and Lisa M. · Sample review (fictional)
“Honest about what was a safety problem and what could wait. Didn't try to sell us a rewire we didn't need.”
Tom H. · Sample review (fictional)
“Recessed lighting in the living room changed the whole house. They laid it out on paper first so we could picture it.”

Local
Built for North Carolina homes.
Based in Garner, we serve homes across Wake and Johnston Counties — 1970s panels, new construction, detached garages and everything in between.
- Summer storms
- Lightning and outages are a fact of life here. Whole-home surge protection and standby generators are the two upgrades that pay for themselves.
- Panels from the 70s and 80s
- Many homes still have 100-amp panels, some from brands insurers no longer accept. We check the brand and the capacity before anything else.
- EV chargers and heat pumps
- The new load on a house is bigger than it was built for. A load calculation tells us whether the panel can take a charger or needs an upgrade first.
- Humidity and outdoor wiring
- Outdoor outlets, pool equipment and landscape lighting corrode fast in Wake and Johnston Counties humidity. GFCI protection and in-use covers aren't optional.
- Aluminum branch wiring
- Homes from the late 60s and early 70s may have aluminum branch circuits. We remediate connections properly rather than just swapping devices.
- Fast-growing towns
- New construction brings AFCI breakers and smart devices; the older streets still have fuse boxes. We stock parts for both.
