Frankfort's trusted source for licensed electrical services — from outlet repairs to full panel upgrades, done right the first time.
From panel upgrades to EV charger installation, our licensed electricians handle every residential and commercial electrical need.
We map out fixture placement for optimal light coverage, cut precise ceiling openings, run new circuits as needed, and install IC-rated housings that are safe for insulated ceilings.
Ceiling fans involve heavy fixtures and live wiring above your head. Our licensed electricians ensure every connection is secure, every mount is load-rated, and every fan runs safely.
We review your project requirements, pull necessary permits, install wiring and devices using commercial-grade materials, and schedule the final inspection to close out the permit properly.
Ignoring electrical problems lets them get worse. Loose connections, arcing wires, and overloaded circuits cause thousands of house fires each year. Our licensed team fixes issues safely, the first time.
We handle tenant improvements, lighting retrofits, panel upgrades, dedicated equipment circuits, emergency power systems, and code compliance upgrades for commercial and industrial spaces.
We install hardwired CO detectors at code-required locations near bedrooms and fuel-burning appliances, interconnect them with your smoke alarm system, and verify operation with professional testing equipment.
Electrical problems often hide behind walls where they quietly worsen. Our licensed electricians follow a systematic diagnostic process to find issues before they become fire hazards or safety threats.
Highlight your home exterior, illuminate walkways, and boost curb appeal with professionally designed landscape lighting. A well-lit property also deters intruders and prevents trips and falls.
Our licensed electricians handle every step of your generator install, from sizing the unit and pouring the pad to wiring the automatic transfer switch and final testing.
We examine your panel, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding system, and GFCI protection room by room, then deliver a detailed written report with findings and recommended corrections.
Control your lights, thermostats, locks, and more from your phone or voice assistant. Smart home wiring creates a connected, energy-efficient home that simplifies your daily routine.
Breakers that trip repeatedly are warning you of a serious problem. Forcing them back on risks fire or electrocution. Our electricians safely diagnose whether the issue is the breaker, the wiring, or an overload.
Battery-only smoke detectors fail when batteries die. Our electricians install hardwired units with sealed backup batteries per current code, ensuring your family is protected around the clock.
Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.
Aluminum wiring expands and contracts more than copper, causing loose connections that overheat and arc. Insurance companies increasingly refuse to cover aluminum-wired homes. Our licensed electricians eliminate the risk permanently.
An upgraded electrical panel supports modern power demands, prevents tripped breakers, and can increase your home value. Stop managing an overloaded system and power your home with confidence.
Overloaded outlets and daisy-chained power strips are leading causes of electrical fires. We install dedicated circuits with proper grounding and tamper-resistant receptacles to keep your family safe.
We remove old fixtures, upgrade the electrical box if needed, connect and mount the new fixture securely, and test dimmer compatibility so your lights perform exactly as expected.
Professionally wired security cameras deliver reliable 24/7 recording without Wi-Fi dropouts or battery hassles. Protect your home and family with a surveillance system you can count on.
Water and electricity are a deadly combination. Pool and hot tub wiring requires GFCI protection, proper bonding of all metal surfaces, and specific clearance distances. Our electricians follow NEC Article 680 to the letter.
Power surges destroy electronics, damage appliance control boards, and can even start fires. Our electricians install UL-listed surge protectors with proper grounding to defend your entire electrical system.
See who is at your door from anywhere with a professionally installed Ring doorbell. Get reliable motion alerts and crystal-clear video without the DIY frustration.
We plan the new circuit layout, pull permits, run code-compliant copper wiring through your walls and attic, install a new panel if needed, and restore your walls with minimal disruption.
