Residential electrical work for real Spokane homes
Every home is a little different. Here's how we think about the most common residential electrical situations across Spokane, Spokane Valley, and Liberty Lake.
Older homes & outdated wiring
Many older Spokane homes still have two-prong outlets, ungrounded circuits, breakers that trip without warning, and panels that are well past their service life. We diagnose what's actually a safety issue versus what just looks old, and upgrade what needs upgrading.
Modern electrical loads
EV chargers, hot tubs and saunas, induction ranges, home offices, smart switches, garage circuits, and modern kitchens all pull more than older homes were ever designed for. We size circuits and panels for the way you actually live in the home today.
Remodels & additions
Kitchen and bath remodels, basement finishes, garage or shop wiring, and additions all need a thoughtful electrical plan: lighting layout, dedicated circuits, outlet placement, and clean rough-in/finish work that passes inspection the first time.
Troubleshooting & repairs
Tripping breakers, dead outlets, flickering lights, warm switches, and stubborn GFCI issues. We trace problems back to the root cause instead of swapping parts and hoping, and explain what we found in plain English.

Frequently Asked Questions
What residential electrical services do you provide?+
We handle the full range of home electrical work: repairs and troubleshooting, panel upgrades, outlets and switches, interior and exterior lighting, EV chargers, hot tub circuits, whole-home surge protection, generator transfer switches, remodel and addition wiring, and full home rewires.
Do you work on older Spokane homes?+
Yes. We work on plenty of older homes around the South Hill, Browne's Addition, and Peaceful Valley: outdated panels, two-prong outlets, ungrounded circuits, and aging wiring. We're careful around plaster and lath and recommend upgrades that actually make sense for the home, not blanket teardowns.
When should I upgrade my electrical panel?+
Common triggers are a panel that's full, frequent breaker trips, a new EV charger or hot tub, kitchen or bathroom remodels, large new appliances, or notes from your insurance company. A lot of Spokane homes still have 100-amp service: upgrading to 200 amps gives you room for modern loads.
Can you install EV chargers at homes?+
Yes. Home Level 2 installs typically need a dedicated 240V circuit, the right breaker size, and panel capacity to support it. We run clean wiring, mount the unit neatly, and confirm everything is sized correctly. Details on our EV charger page.
Do I need an electrician for a kitchen or bathroom remodel?+
Almost always. Kitchens and baths need dedicated circuits, GFCI/AFCI protection, planned lighting layout, the right outlet locations, and appliance circuits sized correctly. Bringing an electrician in early during planning saves rework later and keeps everything inspection-ready.
Can you add outlets or lighting?+
Yes. Outdoor and garage outlets, USB-C receptacles, recessed lighting, ceiling fixtures, under-cabinet lighting, smart switches, and dimmers. Everything is installed to code with clean cuts and tidy wiring.
How do I schedule residential electrical service?+
