Repairs, upgrades and installations for homes and businesses across the Denver metro, all handled by licensed electricians with a written price before we start.
Light switches look simple, but a switch that stops working, feels warm or crackles when you flip it is telling you something. Loose terminal screws, worn contacts and backstabbed wires are the usual causes, and each one creates heat at the connection. Many Denver homes still have original switches that have been flipped tens of thousands of times. We open the box, check the wiring and the connections on the whole circuit, and replace the switch with a quality device rated for the load. If you want an upgrade while we are there, we install dimmers, three-way switches, motion sensors and smart switches that work with the lights you already have. Most switch repairs take under an hour, and you get a written price before we start.
Smart home upgrades save time and energy, but they only work well when the wiring behind them is right. Smart switches need a neutral wire that many older boxes do not have, hubs need reliable power, and whole-home systems need a plan. We install and configure smart switches, dimmers, thermostats, video doorbells, lighting scenes and connected outlets, and we make sure every device is on a circuit that can support it. We also help you choose equipment that works together, so you are not juggling five apps to turn off the lights. Before we leave, we walk you through the controls and set up your schedules. The result is a home that is easier to run and just as safe as it was before.
Many homeowners call for an electrical inspection because a breaker keeps tripping, they are buying or selling a house, or they simply are not sure what is behind the walls of an older home. A professional inspection gives you clear answers. We check the panel and its breakers, the grounding and bonding, GFCI and AFCI protection, visible wiring, outlets and switches, smoke alarm coverage and signs of heat damage or amateur work. You receive a written report with photos, a plain-language summary of what we found, and a prioritised list of anything that needs attention. Nothing is repaired without your approval. An inspection is one of the least expensive ways to protect your home, your family and your insurance coverage.
When a major appliance shuts off in the middle of a cycle, or trips the breaker every time you use it, the problem usually traces back to the circuit that feeds it. Ovens, dryers, air conditioners and microwaves draw heavy current, and they need a correctly sized dedicated circuit with the right breaker. A breaker that trips constantly may be doing its job on an overloaded circuit, or it may be worn out and failing. We test the appliance draw, the breaker, the wiring and the connections, then repair or replace what is actually at fault. If a new appliance needs more power than the old circuit can provide, we run a new dedicated circuit to code so it works reliably and safely.
Ceiling fans make a room more comfortable without running the air conditioning all day, but an old fan that wobbles, hums or runs at one speed is worth replacing. The most important part of a fan installation is the part you cannot see. A fan must hang from a fan-rated box secured to the framing, not from a standard light box that was never designed to carry the weight and motion. We remove the old fixture, confirm or upgrade the box, balance the new fan and connect the light kit and controls. We can also add a wall control or remote so you do not have to reach for pull chains. Most replacements are completed in about an hour.
Smoke alarms save lives, but only when their sensors are still working. Most smoke alarms need to be replaced every ten years, and many Denver homes have alarms well past that date. Hardwired alarms should be replaced by an electrician so the interconnection still works, which means that when one alarm sounds, every alarm in the home sounds. We replace old units with modern interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, add alarms where current code requires them, such as inside bedrooms and on every level, and test the whole system before we leave. It is a small job that makes a very large difference to your family’s safety.
A Level 2 charger turns your garage into the most convenient charging station you will ever use, adding 25 to 40 miles of range for every hour it runs. The charger itself is simple. The real work is the circuit behind it. We start with a load calculation to confirm your panel has room, then install a dedicated circuit with the correct wire size and breaker, mount the charger where the cable reaches the charge port easily, pull the permit and meet the inspector. We work with every major charger brand, including units supplied by your car dealer, and we help set up scheduled charging so you take advantage of lower overnight rates.
A video doorbell lets you see who is at the door from anywhere, but a quick swap can turn into buzzing, overheating or a chime that stops working if the existing transformer is not up to the job. Most older homes have a doorbell transformer sized for a simple mechanical chime, not a camera that runs all day. We check the transformer and wiring, upgrade the transformer when needed, mount the doorbell at the right height and angle, and connect it to your Wi-Fi and existing chime. When we leave, the doorbell is powered correctly, the chime works, and the app is set up on your phone.
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s electrical system, and many Denver homes still run on panels installed decades ago. Signs you need a replacement include breakers that trip often, a panel that feels warm, lights that flicker when large appliances start, no open slots for new circuits, or a brand with known safety problems. A new panel adds capacity for EV chargers, heat pumps and remodels, and modern breakers add arc-fault and ground-fault protection. We handle the load calculation, permit, utility coordination and inspection, and we label every circuit so you always know what controls what. Most panel replacements are completed in a single day.
Electrical problems rarely wait for a convenient time. Warm outlets, dead circuits, buzzing switches, breakers that will not reset and lights that flicker are all signs that something needs attention. Our electricians troubleshoot the problem to its source rather than treating the symptom, then explain what failed and what it will cost to fix before any work begins. We carry common parts on every van, so most repairs are completed on the first visit. For urgent problems like burning smells or sparking, we offer emergency service around the clock across the Denver metro. Every repair is completed to code and backed by our workmanship warranty.
Wiring is the part of your electrical system you never see, which is exactly why it has to be done correctly. Older homes may have aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded circuits, cloth-insulated wire or connections modified by previous owners. New projects like additions, basement finishes and remodels need circuits planned around how the space will actually be used. We install new wiring, replace outdated or damaged runs, add circuits for new appliances and upgrade ungrounded circuits, all with permits and inspections. We work carefully to minimise drywall damage and leave your home clean. The goal is wiring you never have to think about again.
Outlets wear out. A plug that falls out, an outlet that feels warm, scorch marks around the cover or an outlet that only works some of the time are all signs it needs to be replaced. Loose connections inside an outlet create heat, and heat is how electrical fires start. We replace worn outlets, upgrade two-prong outlets with proper grounding where possible, and install GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, garages and outdoors where code requires it. We also add USB outlets, tamper-resistant receptacles and new outlets where you need them. Every outlet we touch is tested before we leave, and so is the rest of the circuit it sits on.
Power surges happen more often than most people realise. Lightning is the dramatic one, but most surges come from inside the home when large motors in air conditioners, refrigerators and furnaces cycle on and off. Over time those small surges wear down the electronics in TVs, computers, appliances and smart home devices. A whole-house surge protector installed at your panel stops surges before they reach your circuits, and it works alongside the plug-in strips you already use. We install quality surge protection devices sized for your service, confirm your grounding is correct, and explain how the protection works so you know what is covered.
Colorado storms, wildfire season and winter weather can knock out power for hours or days. A standby generator starts automatically within seconds of an outage and keeps your furnace, refrigerator, sump pump, medical equipment and lights running. Portable generators can also be connected safely with a transfer switch or interlock. We help you choose the right size generator for the circuits you want to keep powered, install the transfer equipment, coordinate the gas connection with a licensed plumber, pull the permits and test the system under load. When the power goes out, your home keeps running without you having to do a thing.
