Professional Electrician Serving Colorado Springs

Your home’s electrical system is its central nervous system. When it functions correctly, you barely notice it. When it fails, it disrupts your life and can pose serious safety hazards. We offer a full suite of residential electrical services designed to keep your home powered safely.

Electrical Panel Upgrades and Replacements

The electrical panel (or breaker box) is the heart of your home’s electrical system. It distributes electricity from the utility grid to the various circuits in your house. Many older homes in Colorado Springs were built decades ago when energy demands were significantly lower. Today, with central air conditioning, high-definition televisions, computers, and electric vehicles, a 60-amp or 100-amp panel may no longer suffice.

If you frequently experience tripping breakers, notice lights dimming when appliances turn on, or hear buzzing sounds coming from the panel, it is time for a professional assessment. We specialize in upgrading services to 200 amps or higher, ensuring your home has the capacity to run modern appliances safely. We also replace outdated or recalled panels—such as Federal Pacific Electric or Zinsco panels—which are known fire hazards. Our process involves calculating your current and future load requirements, obtaining necessary permits, and performing a seamless installation that brings your home up to current safety codes.

Whole-Home Rewiring and Wiring Repairs

Electrical wiring degrades over time. Insulation can crack, connections can loosen, and rodents can chew through protective coatings. In older Colorado Springs neighborhoods, we frequently encounter knob-and-tube wiring or aluminum wiring, both of which present distinct risks compared to modern copper wiring with grounding.

Whole-home rewiring is a significant undertaking, but it is often necessary for safety and insurance purposes. Our approach is meticulous. We map out the most efficient routes to run new cabling with minimal disruption to your drywall and finishes. We ensure that every room has grounded outlets, protecting your sensitive electronics and reducing the risk of shock. If a full rewire isn’t required, we perform targeted repairs to fix dead outlets, damaged circuits, and faulty connections that could lead to arcing or electrical fires.

Interior and Exterior Lighting Installation

Lighting transforms the functionality and atmosphere of a space. Our lighting installation services cover everything from practical task lighting to aesthetic landscape illumination.

Interior Lighting: We design and install recessed lighting (can lights) to provide sleek, even illumination in kitchens and living areas. We also install chandeliers, pendant lights, and under-cabinet lighting. Our team helps you select the right color temperature (measured in Kelvin) to create the desired mood—warm white for bedrooms or daylight cool for workspaces.

Exterior and Security Lighting: Colorado’s dark nights require effective outdoor lighting for safety and curb appeal. We install motion-sensor floodlights, pathway lighting, and deck lights. Properly placed exterior lighting not only highlights your home’s architectural features but also deters potential intruders. We ensure all outdoor fixtures are weather-rated to withstand Colorado’s snow and wind.

Outlet, Switch, and Dimmer Installation

Modern living requires convenient access to power. We install standard duplex receptacles, USB-integrated outlets for easy device charging, and tamper-resistant outlets for child safety.

Crucially, we ensure the correct installation of Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets in wet areas like kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoors. These devices cut power instantly if they detect a ground fault, preventing electrocution. We also install Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCI) in bedrooms and living areas to detect dangerous arcing that could start a fire. Beyond safety, we enhance control with dimmer switches, allowing you to adjust light levels and save energy.
