Power your home for the future. Whether you need more capacity for an EV charger, a home renovation, or simply need to replace an outdated fuse box — we handle every step, including permits and inspection.
Warning Signs
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home's power system. If it can't keep up with modern demands, you'll notice the warning signs. Here are the most common reasons homeowners call us.
Lights dim or flicker when appliances turn on? Your panel may be overloaded and struggling to distribute power evenly.
Frequent breaker trips mean your circuits are maxed out. An upgraded panel provides the capacity your home needs.
Still have a fuse box? These outdated systems are a fire hazard and can't support modern electrical loads safely.
New HVAC system, hot tub, or electric range? These high-draw appliances often require a panel upgrade first.
Level 2 EV chargers require a dedicated 240V, 50A circuit. Many older panels don't have the capacity available.
Adding a room, ADU, or finishing a basement? More square footage means more circuits and greater panel capacity.

Safety First
Electrical panel work is among the most dangerous and heavily regulated electrical tasks. Here's why hiring a licensed electrician isn't just smart — it's essential.
Improper panel wiring is a leading cause of residential electrical fires. Licensed electricians follow NEC code to ensure every connection is safe.
Washington State requires electrical permits for panel work. Unpermitted work can void your home insurance and create major issues when selling.
A city inspection verifies that your panel upgrade was done correctly. We schedule and attend every inspection — and we pass the first time.
Permitted, inspected panel upgrades add real value to your property. Buyers and appraisers look for proper electrical documentation.
