Your breakers stop tripping every time you run the dishwasher and microwave at the same time. You flip a switch without wondering if you smell something burning. Your lights stay steady when the AC kicks on.
That’s what happens when your electrical system can actually handle what you’re asking it to do. Most homes in Haslet built before 2000 are running on 100-amp panels that were never designed for today’s load. You’ve added computers, gaming systems, home theaters, smart devices, maybe an outdoor spa. Your panel is doing its best, but it’s overwhelmed.
An electrical contractor who knows what they’re doing doesn’t just patch the problem. We look at your whole system, figure out what’s causing the issue, and fix it so it doesn’t come back. You get a home that works the way it should, without the constant worry that something’s about to go wrong.
Carroll Service Company has been handling electrical work across the Fort Worth area since 1999. We’re a family-owned electrical company, which means our name is on every job. That matters when you’re trusting someone with your home’s safety.
We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and multiple Super Service Awards from Angie’s List because we show up when we say we will and we don’t surprise you with charges you weren’t expecting. Our electricians are fully licensed and insured, and we use commercial-grade materials on residential jobs because they last decades longer.
Haslet homeowners have high standards for their properties. With a median household income over $169,000 and a 92% homeownership rate, you’re not looking for the cheapest option. You’re looking for someone who does it right the first time so you don’t have to deal with it again.
You call or contact us with the issue. We schedule a time that works for you, often same-day if it’s urgent. Our electrician shows up in a marked vehicle, introduces themselves, and asks questions about what you’ve been experiencing.
We inspect your electrical system to find the root cause, not just the symptom. Before any work starts, you get flat-rate pricing. No hourly charges that pile up. No surprise fees after the fact. You know exactly what you’re paying before we touch anything.
Once you approve, we get to work. We complete the job using commercial-grade components and clean up when we’re done. Then we test everything to make sure it’s working correctly and safely. You get a warranty on the work, typically 2-5 years depending on the service, because we stand behind what we do.
If it’s an emergency, like a burning smell from your panel or outlets that are hot to the touch, we offer 24/7 service. Electrical fires don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.

Electrical repairs cover everything from outlets that stopped working to circuits that keep tripping. We troubleshoot the issue, identify whether it’s a wiring problem or a panel capacity issue, and fix it properly. If your panel is outdated, we’ll tell you. About 20% of homes need some type of electrical upgrade before any additional wiring can be safely installed.
Panel upgrades are one of the most common services we provide in Haslet. Your home’s electrical demand has likely doubled since your panel was installed. We replace old 100-amp panels with 200-amp systems that can handle modern appliances, HVAC systems, and electronics without constantly tripping breakers. Burn marks on your panel are a serious red flag that it can’t handle the load, and that’s a fire hazard.
Generator installations have become essential for North Texas homeowners. ERCOT is forecasting a 50% increase in electricity demand by 2029, which means more strain on the grid during peak times. Summer heat waves and winter freezes can knock out power for days. A backup generator keeps your home running when the grid goes down.
Whole-house surge protection is another service that saves you money long-term. It protects expensive electronics from voltage spikes and can reduce your electric bill by up to 15%. With Haslet business electricity rates already 20-30% lower than residential rates, every bit of efficiency helps.
Pay attention when you turn on an appliance. If your lights flicker when the AC kicks on or the microwave starts, your panel is struggling to distribute power properly. That’s a sign it’s either outdated or undersized for your home’s current electrical load.
Breakers that trip frequently are another clear indicator. If you’re constantly resetting breakers, your circuits are overloaded. Modern homes use significantly more electricity than homes built 20 years ago, and your panel might not be equipped to handle it.
The most serious warning sign is a burning smell or visible burn marks on your panel. That means the panel is overheating because it can’t handle the amount of electricity flowing through it. This is a fire hazard and needs immediate attention. If you see or smell this, call us right away and avoid using high-draw appliances until we can inspect it.
A licensed electrical contractor has completed years of training, passed state exams, and maintains insurance and bonding. That licensing means they’re legally qualified to work on your electrical system and they’re held to code standards. If something goes wrong, you have recourse.
A handyman might be able to change a light fixture, but they’re not qualified to diagnose electrical issues, upgrade panels, or install new circuits. Electrical work that’s not done to code can create serious safety hazards. It can also cause problems when you try to sell your home, because inspectors will flag unpermitted or substandard work.
Insurance is another factor. If an unlicensed person gets hurt working on your property, you could be liable. Licensed contractors carry their own insurance, which protects you. In Haslet, where property values are high and homeowners expect quality work, using a licensed electrical contractor isn’t just smart, it’s necessary to protect your investment.
Panel upgrades typically range from $2,500 to $4,500 depending on the size of the upgrade and the complexity of your home’s electrical system. If you’re going from a 100-amp to a 200-amp panel, you’re looking at the higher end of that range because it involves more materials and labor.
The cost includes the new panel, breakers, labor, permits, and inspection. Some homes need additional work if the wiring is outdated or if the service line from the street needs upgrading. We provide flat-rate pricing upfront so you know exactly what you’re paying before work begins.
It’s not a small expense, but it’s an investment in your home’s safety and functionality. A properly sized panel prevents electrical fires, stops constant breaker trips, and adds capacity for future needs like EV charging stations. With over 300,000 electric vehicles now registered in Texas and that number growing fast, having adequate electrical capacity is becoming more important every year.
North Texas weather is unpredictable. Summer heat waves strain the grid, and winter storms like the 2021 freeze can knock out power for days. When you lose electricity, you lose climate control, refrigeration, and in some cases, water if you’re on a well system.
A whole-house generator automatically kicks on within seconds of an outage. You don’t have to do anything. Your HVAC keeps running, your food stays cold, and your family stays comfortable and safe. For homes in Haslet where the median value is high and families have invested significantly in their properties, a generator is practical protection.
ERCOT is forecasting major demand increases driven by data centers, industrial growth, and electric vehicles. That means more stress on the grid and potentially more outages during peak demand. A backup generator gives you independence from grid issues. Installation typically takes 1-2 days, and we handle the permits, gas line connections, and electrical hookup so it’s done correctly and safely.
Yes, we install Level 2 EV charging stations, which are the most common choice for home use. These chargers run on 240 volts, the same as your dryer or oven, and can fully charge most electric vehicles overnight.
First, we assess your electrical panel to make sure it has enough capacity. If you’re running a 100-amp panel that’s already maxed out, you’ll likely need a panel upgrade before adding an EV charger. A Level 2 charger typically draws 30-50 amps, which is a significant load.
Once your panel can handle it, we install a dedicated circuit for the charger, mount the charging unit in your garage or outside near where you park, and test everything to make sure it’s working safely. The whole process usually takes a few hours if your panel is ready, or 1-2 days if you need an upgrade first. With EV adoption growing rapidly in Texas, more Haslet homeowners are preparing their electrical systems now rather than waiting until they buy the vehicle.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency electrical service. If you’re dealing with a burning smell, sparking outlets, a panel that’s hot to the touch, or a complete power loss, those are emergencies that need immediate attention.
Electrical issues can escalate quickly. A small problem can turn into a fire hazard in minutes. We keep electricians on call specifically for these situations because we know that safety issues don’t happen on a convenient schedule.
When you call for emergency service, you’ll talk to a real person, not an answering service. We’ll ask questions to assess the severity and dispatch an electrician as quickly as possible. Our response time is typically under an hour for true emergencies in the Haslet area. We carry the tools and materials needed to handle most urgent repairs on the spot, so you’re not left waiting for parts or a follow-up visit.
