An electrician wiring a residential outlet to code
Home / Services

Residential electrical, done to code.

One licensed crew for every job a Charlotte home needs — permitted through Mecklenburg County and inspected.

The full residential menu.

Power

Panel upgrades & service changes

100A→200A upgrades, meter-base and riser repair, and replacement of Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels that insurers flag. We handle the Duke Energy disconnect and the Mecklenburg County inspection.

  • 100A → 200A
  • FPE / Zinsco replacement
  • Meter base & riser
EV

EV charger installation

Level 2 charging on a dedicated circuit — hardwired 48A or a NEMA 14-50 outlet. We run a real load calculation first and tell you up front if your panel needs an upgrade to support it.

  • Hardwired or 14-50
  • Load calculation
  • Any charger brand
Backup

Standby & portable generators

Generac automatic standby units with a transfer switch for hands-off outages, or a portable-generator inlet with an interlock kit if you’d rather run it manually. Sized to what you actually need to keep on.

  • Generac standby
  • Automatic transfer switch
  • Interlock kits
Rewire

Rewires, aluminum & knob-and-tube

Whole-home rewires for older Charlotte homes, plus aluminum branch-circuit remediation (COPALUM crimps or AlumiConn) and knob-and-tube removal — the wiring that fails inspections and worries insurers.

  • Whole-home rewire
  • Aluminum remediation
  • Knob-and-tube removal
Safety

GFCI, AFCI & surge protection

Code-required GFCI and AFCI protection where it belongs, whole-home Type-2 surge protection at the panel, and hardwired smoke/CO detectors. The unglamorous stuff that quietly prevents fires and fried electronics.

  • GFCI / AFCI
  • Whole-home surge
  • Smoke/CO hardwiring
Living

Lighting, fans, outlets & hot tubs

Recessed LED lighting, ceiling fans, added outlets and dedicated circuits, landscape lighting, and hot-tub wiring — a genuine Charlotte staple. Troubleshooting for the outlet or switch that just stopped working.

  • Recessed & landscape lighting
  • Fans & added circuits
  • Hot-tub wiring

Service questions, answered.

Do you charge just to come out?

For troubleshooting we charge a flat diagnostic fee, waived when you approve the repair. Estimates on installs like panels, EV chargers, and generators are free.

Why won’t my insurer renew over my panel?

Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels have documented failure-to-trip histories, so many insurers now require replacement. We swap them for a modern labeled panel and coordinate the Duke Energy disconnect and county inspection.

Will an EV charger need a panel upgrade?

Sometimes. A Level 2 charger pulls 40–48 amps, so we run a load calculation against your existing panel first and tell you up front — no surprise change orders once we’re on site.

Transfer switch or interlock for a generator?

An automatic transfer switch is hands-off — the generator starts itself when the power drops. An interlock kit is a cheaper manual option you flip yourself. We’ll size and recommend based on what you need to keep running.
