Service FAQ

Answers to our most common service questions.

Most residential panel upgrades (100A to 200A) are completed in a single day — typically 4–8 hours. You'll be without power during a portion of that time. We schedule permits in advance so there are no delays on your project day.
Yes, in most cases. We assess circuit requirements during the estimate and let you know if any changes are needed. When installing an EV charger and upgrading a panel simultaneously, we plan both as a single project to save time and money.
Generator sizing depends on what you need to power. A 7–12kW unit handles essential circuits — lights, refrigerator, key outlets. A 20–22kW unit can run most of your home including HVAC. Larger homes may need 24–30kW+. We perform a load calculation during the estimate to recommend the right size for your needs and budget.
Yes. Many Houston homes from the 1960s and 70s have aluminum wiring, which poses a documented fire hazard at connection points. We assess the extent of aluminum wiring and provide options — from full rewiring to using anti-oxidant compounds with CO/ALR-rated devices. We give honest options at different price points after inspecting in person.
Costs vary based on the number of lights, ceiling height, attic access, and existing wiring. Most Houston homeowners spend $100–$200 per light installed, including fixtures and labor. A typical living room or kitchen with 10–12 recessed lights generally runs $1,200–$2,200. Contact us to schedule a free estimate specific to your home.
