Electrical Services in Lafayette

Our full range of electrical services covers everything your home or business needs — all performed to current NEC code.

Circuit Breaker Repair

We test the suspect breaker with calibrated equipment, check for loose bus connections and signs of arcing, replace the faulty breaker with a matching UL-listed unit, and load-test the circuit.

Security Camera Wiring

Wireless cameras lose signal and batteries die at the worst time. Hardwired security camera systems installed by our licensed team provide continuous, tamper-resistant surveillance you can rely on day and night.

Smart Home Electrical

We install smart switches, dimmers, and outlets that work with your existing Wi-Fi network, set up automation routines, and ensure every device has the neutral wire and load capacity it requires.

Generator Installation

A properly installed standby generator protects your family, your food supply, and your medical equipment. We pull all permits and ensure code-compliant connections every time.

Electrical Inspection

An electrical inspection reveals hidden hazards, code violations, and aging components before they cause problems. Protect your investment whether you are buying, selling, or simply maintaining your home.

Indoor Lighting Installation

Upgrade your home with new light fixtures that transform the look and feel of every room. Professional installation ensures proper support, clean wiring, and the right dimming compatibility.

Whole House Surge Protector

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.

Landscape Lighting Installation

We design a custom layout, install a weatherproof transformer, run buried low-voltage cable to each fixture location, and program timers or photocells for effortless automated operation.

Ceiling Fan Installation

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.

Electrical Panel Upgrade

We disconnect the utility feed, swap your outdated panel for a modern load center, re-land every circuit on correctly rated breakers, and coordinate the final inspection with your municipality.

Electrical Repair Services

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.

Smoke Detector Installation

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.

Electrical Wiring & Rewiring

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.

EV Charger Installation

EV chargers draw significant power and require proper circuit protection. Our licensed electricians ensure your installation meets NEC code, manufacturer specs, and local requirements.

Ring Doorbell Installation

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.

Outlet Installation

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.

Hot Tub / Pool Electrical Wiring

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.

Recessed Lighting Installation

Recessed lights create a clean, modern look while flooding your rooms with even illumination. LED recessed fixtures also cut your lighting energy use by up to 75 percent.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

We carefully remove aluminum branch circuit wiring, pull new copper conductors through your existing pathways, terminate every connection at outlets, switches, and the panel, and restore your walls.

Commercial Electrician Services

We handle tenant improvements, lighting retrofits, panel upgrades, dedicated equipment circuits, emergency power systems, and code compliance upgrades for commercial and industrial spaces.

Electrical Installation Services

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.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Installation

CO detector placement matters as much as having one. Installed too high, too low, or too far from sources, they may not alarm in time. Our electricians follow manufacturer and code guidelines precisely.

Electrical Troubleshooting

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.
