Residential Electrical Services
When you hire me. You get me. I personally handle your job from start to finish.
Panels and Equipment
I handle everything involving your electrical panel and breakers, as well as the meter base and exterior service mast that feed power into your home. If your house still runs on an outdated system, I can perform a full service upgrade to safely support modern appliances, and your family's growing power demands.

Circuit BreakersNew breakers for added circuits, and the right replacement when one's worn, damaged or wrong for your panel.
AFCI BreakersArc-fault (AFCI) breakers that shut a circuit off when its wiring arcs. For bedrooms, living rooms and hallways.

Troubleshooting, Repairs and Inspections
I trace the root cause of dead circuits, flickering lights, and buzzing panels, handle urgent emergency repairs, and conduct thorough pre-sale home safety inspections. If a city or county building inspector has red- or yellow-tagged your property, I will step in to fix the violations and get your system fully back to code.
