Hear from Our Customers
You flip a switch and the lights come on. Your AC runs all summer without tripping breakers. Your family isn’t dealing with flickering lights, burning smells, or outlets that feel hot to the touch.
That’s what properly installed electrical work looks like. Not projects that drag on for five hours when you were quoted one. Not callbacks to fix what should’ve been done correctly the first time.
When your electrical system is handling the load it’s supposed to handle—when your panel isn’t overheating during July in Texas, when your surge protection actually kicks in during storms—you’re not thinking about your electrical system at all. You’re living in a home that works, with one less thing demanding your attention and eating into your budget with emergency repairs.
We started Carroll Service Company in 1999 because Fort Worth-area homeowners kept getting burned by contractors who didn’t show up, didn’t finish, or didn’t know what they were doing. We’re still family-owned, still based in Fort Worth, and we’ve spent over two decades becoming the electrical contractor White Settlement residents call when they need it done right.
Every electrician on our team carries current Texas licensing and insurance. We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and multiple Super Service Awards from Angie’s List—not because we chase recognition, but because we show up when we say we will and we stand behind every installation.
White Settlement homes face specific challenges. Many were built decades ago with 100-amp panels that can’t handle modern power demands. Summer heat pushes HVAC systems to their limits. Texas storms create surge risks that cheap electrical work can’t protect against. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to address it without overselling you on work you don’t need.
You call or contact us with an electrical issue or project. We schedule a time that actually works for your schedule—and we show up when we say we will.
Our licensed electrician assesses the situation and gives you transparent pricing before any work starts. No hidden fees. No surprise charges when the job’s done. You know exactly what you’re paying for and why.
We complete the work using commercial-grade, UL-listed materials that exceed residential standards. Our trucks are fully stocked, so we’re not making multiple trips or leaving your project half-finished. If we’re upgrading your electrical panel in White Settlement, we’re pulling permits and ensuring everything meets current Texas electrical code based on the 2023 NEC.
Once the work’s complete, we walk you through what we did and answer any questions. Then we clean up and get out of your way. Every installation comes with a warranty covering both parts and labor—panel upgrades get 2-5 years of coverage, and if something goes wrong during that window, we’re coming back at no cost to you.

We handle electrical troubleshooting when you’re dealing with tripped breakers, flickering lights, or outlets that aren’t working. We track down the actual problem instead of guessing, and we fix it so it stays fixed.
Electrical panel upgrades are a big part of what we do in White Settlement. If your home was built before 2000, there’s a good chance your 100-amp panel is struggling with today’s electrical demands. We’ll assess your current setup, recommend the right amperage for your needs, and install a panel that can handle your HVAC, appliances, and electronics without overheating or tripping constantly.
Home rewiring services cover older homes where the wiring itself is the problem—outdated materials, improper installations from previous work, or systems that simply weren’t designed for modern power loads. We also install whole-house surge protection, which matters in White Settlement given how frequently Texas storms roll through and how unreliable the grid has been. ERCOT demand keeps hitting record highs, and Texas customers averaged over 26 hours without power in 2024. Surge protection and backup generator installations give you options when the grid doesn’t.
Wiring installation for new circuits, recessed lighting design, EV charging stations, and electrical maintenance for both residential and commercial properties round out what we do. If it involves electrical work in White Settlement, we’ve handled it before.
Your breakers trip frequently, especially when you’re running the AC and other appliances at the same time. That’s the most common sign your panel is undersized for your home’s current electrical load.
You might also notice lights dimming when large appliances kick on, or outlets and switch plates that feel warm to the touch. If your home was built before 2000 and you still have the original 100-amp panel, it’s likely struggling with modern demands. Today’s homes typically need 200-amp service to handle HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, electronics, and everything else running simultaneously.
Another indicator is if you’re adding new electrical demands—like an EV charging station, a home addition, or upgraded HVAC equipment. Your existing panel might not have the capacity to support additional circuits safely. A licensed electrician can assess your current panel, calculate your actual load requirements, and tell you whether an upgrade makes sense or if you’re fine as-is.
An electrical repair addresses a specific problem—a faulty outlet, a tripped breaker that won’t reset, a light fixture that stopped working. You’re fixing one thing that broke or isn’t functioning correctly.
A full rewiring job means replacing the electrical wiring throughout your home, either in specific areas or the entire house. This becomes necessary when the wiring itself is outdated, damaged, or installed incorrectly. Homes built several decades ago might have aluminum wiring or cloth-insulated wiring that’s deteriorated over time. If you’re seeing multiple electrical issues in different parts of your home, that’s often a sign the wiring system itself is failing, not just individual components.
Rewiring is more invasive and more expensive than a repair, but it’s also a safety issue. Old or damaged wiring creates fire hazards. If an electrician recommends rewiring, it’s because repairing individual problems won’t address the underlying risk. The good news is that once it’s done, you’ve got a modern, safe electrical system that meets current code and can handle your home’s power needs without constant problems.
We prioritize emergency calls and typically respond within a few hours for urgent situations in White Settlement. If you’re dealing with sparks, burning smells, outlets that are hot to the touch, or any situation that poses an immediate safety risk, that’s an emergency and we treat it like one.
Same-day service is standard for us when you’ve got an urgent electrical problem. Our trucks are fully stocked with the parts and materials needed for most common emergency repairs, so we’re not leaving to pick up supplies while your home has an active electrical hazard.
What counts as an emergency? Anything that could cause a fire or electrocution risk. Breakers that keep tripping might be urgent depending on the cause. Complete power loss to part of your home could indicate a serious wiring fault. If you’re not sure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, call us anyway. We’d rather assess it and tell you it can wait than have you deal with a dangerous electrical problem on your own.
Yes, especially given how frequently Texas storms roll through and how unstable the grid has been. Whole-house surge protection installs at your electrical panel and protects every circuit in your home from voltage spikes caused by lightning strikes, grid fluctuations, or power restoration after outages.
Texas customers experienced an average of 26.3 hours without power in 2024, well above the national average. Every time power goes out and comes back on, there’s a surge risk. ERCOT demand keeps hitting record highs, and the grid infrastructure is struggling to keep up. Those conditions create more opportunities for damaging voltage spikes that can fry electronics, appliances, and HVAC equipment.
Plug-in surge protectors help for individual devices, but they don’t protect hardwired appliances like your AC unit, refrigerator, or water heater. Whole-house surge protection covers everything. Given what you’ve invested in your home’s electrical systems and appliances, it’s a relatively inexpensive safeguard against expensive damage. We install NEMA-rated surge protection devices that meet current code requirements and actually work when you need them.
Current Texas licensing and insurance, first and foremost. Every electrician working on your property should carry proper credentials from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. If a contractor can’t or won’t show you their license, walk away.
Transparent pricing matters. You should know what the job costs before work starts, not after. If a contractor is vague about pricing or won’t commit to a number, that’s a red flag. Legitimate electrical contractors can estimate accurately because they’ve done the work before and they know what’s involved.
Look at their track record. How long have they been in business? What do their reviews say—not just the star rating, but what actual customers experienced? An A+ BBB rating and industry recognition like Super Service Awards indicate consistent quality, but even more important is whether they show up on time, communicate clearly, and stand behind their work with real warranties. Ask about warranties upfront. If they’re offering 90 days on a panel upgrade, that tells you something about their confidence in their work. We offer 2-5 years on panel upgrades because we know they’ll last.
Most residential electrical panel upgrades take one full day, sometimes extending into a second day depending on the complexity of your existing setup and what we’re installing. If we’re upgrading from a 100-amp to a 200-amp panel in a straightforward installation, expect 6-8 hours of work.
Your power will be off during portions of the installation—we coordinate with you on timing so you can plan accordingly. If you work from home or have medical equipment that requires power, we’ll work around those needs as much as possible.
The timeline can extend if we’re also running new circuits, relocating the panel, or dealing with outdated wiring that needs to be brought up to code as part of the upgrade. We’ll walk you through the expected timeline during the estimate so you know what to expect. We pull the necessary permits, schedule inspections, and make sure everything meets current Texas electrical code requirements. That’s not optional—it’s how you ensure the work is done safely and legally, and it protects your home’s value and your family’s safety.
