Electrical Services in Montpelier

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

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.

Security Camera Wiring

We run Cat6 or coax cable from each camera location to your DVR or NVR, mount cameras at optimal angles, install weatherproof junction boxes, and power everything through a centralized system.

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.

Circuit Breaker Repair

Breakers that trip repeatedly are warning you of a serious problem. Forcing them back on risks fire or electrocution. Our electricians safely diagnose whether the issue is the breaker, the wiring, or an overload.

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.

Landscape Lighting Installation

Outdoor wiring must withstand moisture, temperature swings, and soil contact. Our electricians use UL-listed wet-rated fixtures, GFCI-protected circuits, and proper burial depths to ensure lasting safety.

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We disconnect the utility feed, swap your outdated panel for a modern load center, re-land every circuit on correctly rated breakers, and coordinate the final inspection with your municipality.

Commercial Electrician Services

Commercial electrical work requires strict code compliance, proper load calculations, and coordination with inspectors and general contractors. Our licensed commercial electricians deliver permitted, inspected, and insured work on every project.

Recessed Lighting Installation

We map out fixture placement for optimal light coverage, cut precise ceiling openings, run new circuits as needed, and install IC-rated housings that are safe for insulated ceilings.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

Aluminum wiring expands and contracts more than copper, causing loose connections that overheat and arc. Insurance companies increasingly refuse to cover aluminum-wired homes. Our licensed electricians eliminate the risk permanently.

EV Charger Installation

Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.

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.

Indoor Lighting Installation

Heavy chandeliers, track lighting, and pendant fixtures require properly rated electrical boxes and secure mounting. Our electricians ensure every installation is safe, level, and wired correctly.

Electrical Inspection

Outdated wiring, missing ground wires, and improper connections are invisible dangers in thousands of homes. Our licensed inspectors identify every safety concern and prioritize what needs attention first.

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.

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.

Smart Home Electrical

Control your lights, thermostats, locks, and more from your phone or voice assistant. Smart home wiring creates a connected, energy-efficient home that simplifies your daily routine.

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.

Smoke Detector Installation

We install hardwired smoke detectors in every required location, interconnect them so all units sound together, add battery backup, and test the full system before we leave.

Electrical Installation Services

From new construction wiring to appliance hookups and dedicated circuits, professional electrical installation ensures everything works correctly and meets code from day one.

Whole House Surge Protector

We install a Type 2 surge protection device directly at your electrical panel, wire it to a dedicated double-pole breaker, and verify the grounding system that makes it effective.
