Outdated 100-amp panels, frequent breaker trips, or adding major appliances like EV chargers signal your home needs a panel upgrade. Our panel upgrade to 200-amp service handles modern electrical loads safely and meets current electrical codes. The upgrade includes circuit breaker replacement and proper grounding that protects your home and family.

Many Fort Worth homes built before 1990 need panel upgrades to support today's electrical demands from multiple AC units, electric vehicles, and modern appliances. Panel upgrades are required in Ridglea Hills and Historic Southside homes adding central air conditioning or Level 2 EV chargers. We handle permitting, inspection, and utility coordination to complete your upgrade correctly.

Electric vehicle owners need Level 2 home charging stations installed in garages or driveways for convenient overnight charging. Our licensed installation of 240-volt EV charging circuits includes proper permitting and electrical code compliance. Level 2 charging provides much faster charging than standard 120-volt outlets and fully charges most EVs overnight.

Growing EV adoption in Fort Worth creates increasing demand for home charging solutions that eliminate trips to public charging stations. Many installations in Tanglewood and Westover Hills require panel upgrades to provide adequate amperage for EV chargers. We assess your existing electrical capacity, recommend the right charger for your vehicle, and complete installation with proper outdoor-rated wiring.

Automatic backup power during outages protects medical equipment, security systems, refrigerated food, and home comfort when the grid fails. Our professional generator installation includes automatic transfer switch and natural gas or propane connection for seamless operation. The system maintains power to critical circuits during storms and grid failures without you flipping a switch.

Fort Worth ice storms and summer thunderstorms cause frequent power outages that last hours or days in some areas. Generator installations are popular in River Oaks and Benbrook areas where homes rely on well water pumps and sump pumps. We size generators properly for your home's needs, handle gas line installation if needed, and complete all required permits and inspections.

Home buyers, sellers, and owners need code compliance verification or pre-purchase electrical evaluations to identify safety hazards. Our comprehensive inspection identifies safety hazards, code violations, and aging components throughout your electrical system. Written reports document your electrical system condition for real estate transactions and insurance requirements.

Inspections are required for older Fort Worth homes during sale transactions in Polytechnic Heights and Arlington Heights. Our inspections reveal aluminum wiring and Federal Pacific panels common in homes built during the 1970s and 1980s. We test outlets, verify proper grounding, check panel capacity, and identify any immediate safety concerns that need correction.

Installing smart thermostats, lighting systems, security cameras, and whole-home automation requires proper wiring and circuit planning. Our smart home wiring service provides reliable power and connectivity for smart devices and control hubs throughout your property. We integrate smart switches, outlets, and low-voltage systems that work together seamlessly.

Smart home upgrades are popular in newer Fort Worth construction and recent renovations where technology integration is a priority. Installations are common in Alliance area homes and new Westlake developments with modern electrical infrastructure. We plan circuits for optimal device placement, install dedicated circuits for equipment hubs, and wire for future expansion as your smart home grows.

Protecting expensive electronics, appliances, and HVAC systems from power surges requires more than plug-in strips. Our whole-house surge protector installation at your electrical panel protects all circuits throughout your home simultaneously. This approach provides superior protection compared to individual plug-in surge strips that only protect connected devices.

Fort Worth's frequent lightning storms cause damaging power surges that destroy electronics and appliances without warning. Surge protection is highly recommended before installing smart home systems throughout Mistletoe Heights and other established neighborhoods. We install commercial-grade surge protection devices rated for Fort Worth's storm activity and electrical grid conditions.

Room additions, garage conversions, or kitchen remodels require new circuits and outlets installed by licensed electricians.

Older homes with outdated wiring, aluminum wiring, or knob-and-tube systems create serious safety hazards and fire risks.

Adding outlets, upgrading to GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms, or installing USB charging outlets improves safety and convenience. Code-compliant outlet installation includes proper grounding and GFCI protection where required by Texas electrical codes. GFCI outlets prevent electrical shock in wet locations by shutting off power instantly when they detect current leaks.

Fort Worth code requires GFCI outlets in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, outdoor locations, and within six feet of water sources. Older homes throughout West Fort Worth need GFCI upgrades during kitchen and bathroom remodels to meet current safety standards. We install standard outlets, GFCI outlets, USB charging outlets, and tamper-resistant outlets required in homes with young children.

Installing ceiling fans improves air circulation and provides energy savings during Fort Worth's hot summers that strain air conditioning systems. Proper mounting and electrical connection with fan-rated boxes and wall controls provides safe, reliable operation for years. Well-placed ceiling fans reduce your AC costs by improving air circulation and making rooms feel cooler at higher thermostat settings.

Ceiling fans reduce cooling costs significantly during Fort Worth's 100°F-plus summer temperatures from June through September. Popular upgrades include bedroom ceiling fans and covered patio fans throughout Arlington and Mansfield areas. We install fan-rated electrical boxes that support fan weight safely, wire switches for independent light and fan control, and balance fans for quiet operation.

Code violations discovered during inspections, home sales, or permit work require licensed electricians to bring systems up to standards. Our licensed electricians bring electrical systems up to current Fort Worth and Texas electrical codes through proper repairs and upgrades. Code corrections fix safety hazards and provide the documentation needed for permit approval and real estate transaction completion.

Common violations in older Fort Worth homes include missing GFCI outlets, improper grounding, and outdated wiring methods no longer allowed. Code corrections are required for final inspections on additions and remodels in Benbrook and Haltom City. We work with inspectors to address all violations efficiently and schedule re-inspection once corrections are complete.

Hardwired smoke detectors for code compliance or replacing battery-only units protect your family with reliable fire detection. Our hardwired smoke detector installation with battery backup meets Fort Worth fire codes and provides redundant power sources. Interconnected detectors communicate wirelessly or through wiring so all alarms sound throughout your entire home when one detects smoke.

Fort Worth requires hardwired smoke detectors in new construction and major renovations to provide reliable fire protection. Code requires detectors in all bedrooms, hallways outside sleeping areas, and on every level including basements. We install detectors in code-required locations, test interconnection between units, and verify proper operation before final inspection.

Adding security lighting, pathway lights, or accent lighting enhances curb appeal and improves safety around your property at night. Low-voltage landscape lighting installation with transformers and timers provides energy-efficient outdoor illumination that highlights landscaping features. Professional installation protects outdoor wiring from weather damage and provides reliable operation year-round.

Landscape lighting is popular in Fort Worth neighborhoods with mature landscaping like Westover Hills and Ridglea Hills where homeowners showcase trees and gardens. Security lighting is important for homes in areas with limited street lighting to deter intruders and illuminate walkways. We design lighting layouts that balance aesthetics with security, install weatherproof fixtures, and program timers for automatic operation.
