Electrical in Clayton.

Local

Built for Johnston County homes.

Storms, older panels, and the new load of EV chargers and heat pumps shape electrical work here.

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.
