Our electricians can maintain and enhance your home’s electrical system in many ways.
Many of our customers in the region have homes with electrical systems that date back more than 40 years. The problems with these older systems include outdated installation practices, outmoded materials, and deterioration. Our team can replace that older wiring, including in homes with knob-and-tube or aluminum branch-circuit wiring.
We perform electrical upgrades, including full transitions to LED lights. Switching to LEDs can significantly lower your electricity and bulb costs in the years ahead. We can upgrade switches to dimmers and add outlets in rooms where you never seem to have enough. EV charging stations are increasingly popular upgrades as more Texans switch to hybrid and electric vehicles. We also upgrade homes with backup generators that will keep them powered during severe winter and summer storms.
Electrical Safety and Protection
As a home’s electrical system gets older, it can fall behind modern standards, and deterioration can occur. That can lead to electrical hazards that cause serious injuries or even deaths. Regular maintenance can help you prevent normal wear and tear and more serious issues.
Our team can also bring your home up to modern standards for maximum safety and efficiency. That includes replacing wires, outlets, switches, and other outdated electrical components. We can upgrade outlets and circuit breakers with GFCI and AFCI protection as needed. You can also benefit from an updated electrical panel that provides the amperage capacity and safety features a modern household needs.
Inspections and Surge Protection
The industry recommendation is to schedule a whole-home inspection at least once every several years. Our team can identify wear and recommend maintenance and repairs as needed. We can also discuss changes to the electrical code and potential upgrades.
Texas has adopted the National Electrical Code, which has required whole-home surge protection since 2020. Many homes in Converse built before then don’t have that protection. Our electricians install panel- and service-side surge protection devices that protect against internal and external surges. Upgrading may allow you to qualify for a home insurance discount. You will also enjoy peace of mind when it comes to your major appliances and valuable electronics.
