Installed new recessed LED lighting in the attic to provide improved illumination of the space, with the fixture secured flush in the ceiling and verified for proper operation. Inspected the Siemens main breaker panel, confirming the service disconnect and circuit labeling were intact, with no signs of rust, damage, or overheating.
Inspected the main breaker panel and the kitchen range circuit following reports of the breaker tripping when the newly installed range was plugged in. The panel was clean and intact with no signs of damage, corrosion, or overheating, and circuit labeling was verified. The range cord and receptacle connection were examined, and the likely cause of the nuisance tripping was identified as a load or connection issue at the time of installation, as the circuit is now holding without tripping.
Very knowledgeable listen very well very professional. Would ask for the same service person rob again if I should ever have any future issues with my home.
Responded to a report of grinding noise from video doorbell cameras at the front and rear doors and inspected the low-voltage wiring and electrical panel for overheating or fire hazards. Detached the doorbell unit from its mounting bracket to examine the terminal connections and conductors at the back of the unit and the wall penetration, and verified the installation was safe.
Installed a new 200-amp main electrical service with all-new breakers and connections, plus a new 100-amp sub panel, coordinating the utility disconnect and reconnect and the required permit and inspection process. Established new grounding systems, including the main grounding electrode system and a bond to the gas line piping. Used a portable generator to maintain temporary power during the service changeover.
Performed an electrical evaluation of a 1949 residence to diagnose ungrounded circuits serving three bedrooms, the living room, and the dining room, and to assess the main service panel. The aged panel showed surface corrosion, heavy dust and debris buildup, and inaccurate circuit labeling, and further grounding upgrades and GFCI/AFCI breaker protection were recommended for the affected rooms.
Responded to reports of non-functioning receptacles in the master bathroom and a second-floor bathroom following a storm-related power flicker. Inspected the main electrical panel and verified no tripped breakers, then tested the affected receptacles with a circuit analyzer, confirming 120.4 V present with correct wiring. Further diagnosis, such as resetting or replacing a tripped GFCI device, may be needed to fully restore the remaining outlets.
Replaced a corroded greenhouse electrical panel with a new main breaker panel mounted on a 4x4 post, and re-routed the existing branch circuits using liquid-tight flexible conduit. Installed a grounding system with a copper grounding electrode conductor and clamp, added a GFCI breaker to protect the greenhouse circuits, and repaired the broken conduit near the meter.
Investigated loss of power to the master bathroom outlets and bidet circuit, inspecting the newly installed outlet and connections within the wall box, where the wiring terminations were exposed and checked. Restored power to the circuit and verified correct operation of the outlet using a GFCI tester, which confirmed proper wiring and voltage.
Inspected the existing pool electrical system, including the main service panel and the equipment area, in response to reported breaker failure and outdated wiring following prior pool contractor work. Found the panel in aged condition with disorganized, loosely routed conductors and worn breakers. Documented panel and equipment conditions, with recommendations to correct the wiring, replace the faulty pool circuit breaker, and update the aging pool equipment wiring to current code standards.
Responded to a reported malfunction of a 6-inch recessed LED fixture suspected of having a failed driver. Inspected the electrical panel and found a 60A breaker with heavy dust accumulation and corroded lug and bracket hardware, noting these conditions for further evaluation. Diagnosed the fixture's LED driver as the likely point of failure and recommended its replacement.

We had our 28 year old 400 amp electric service replaced. They did a great job of installing the new panels with whole house surge protection and a new meter. We had no power for the day, as expected, but they worked efficiently and were able to get Duke Power people and Wake County inspectors out pretty quickly. We had power back on by 3pm. It was expensive ($12K), but that’s just what they cost. Like a. new HVAC, only different.
Very pleased!
Went well beyond service that was expected

I had a great experience and couldn’t be happier with the service! From the moment Charles arrived, he was friendly, professional, and made me feel completely at ease. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything he was doing and walked me through the estimates in detail, making sure I understood exactly what was needed and why.
Our safety inspection through the membership plan is well worth it especially when someone like Charlie shows up at your door! Charlie is not only knowledgeable, he shares his honest opinions on what should be replaced and why. He isn’t pushy and gave us a complete rundown of our home’s electrical safety needs. We felt so comfortable having him in our home. He is super friendly and pretty funny too! Our new puppy took a special liking to him as well! (sorry about that lol) Highly recommend Charlie!!
Very professional quick to resolve.
Bryant was prompt, professional, respectful, and efficient. Couldn't ask for more!
Excellent Experience!
