Can you help bring my property up to current electrical code?
Yes. We perform detailed electrical safety inspections, identify outdated wiring, GFCI/AFCI deficiencies, and overloaded circuits, and then create a compliance plan based on the latest National Electrical Code (NEC 2023) as adopted by North Carolina. Once corrections are complete, we schedule and pass the final county inspection for you.

How much will my electrical project cost and do you offer free estimates?
Most routine jobs—fixture replacement, outlet additions, or breaker swaps—can be quoted upfront over the phone.
