You shouldn’t have to reset a breaker every time you run the microwave and dryer at the same time. Your outlets shouldn’t feel warm to the touch. And you definitely shouldn’t smell burning plastic anywhere near your electrical panel.
Those aren’t minor annoyances. They’re warnings that your electrical system can’t handle what you’re asking it to do. And in a place like Argyle, where homes are larger and expectations are higher, outdated wiring or undersized panels become real problems fast.
When we handle your home electrical repair and installation services, you get a system that actually supports how you live now. More capacity for the devices you use daily. Protection from the power surges that fry expensive electronics. Backup power when storms knock out the grid. You stop worrying about whether flipping a switch will trip something, and you start trusting that your electrical system just works.
We’ve been doing residential electrical services in Argyle, TX and throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area since 1999. We’re a family-owned electrical contractor, which means when you call, you’re talking to people who live and work in the same communities you do.
We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and multiple Super Service Awards from Angie’s List. Not because we’re the cheapest option, but because we show up when we say we will, we explain what’s wrong in plain language, and we fix it correctly the first time. Every technician on our team is fully licensed and insured, and we don’t leave a job until it passes inspection and works the way it should.
Argyle homeowners deal with unique challenges—larger properties, higher electrical demands, and storm systems that can knock out power for days. We’ve been handling those exact issues for over two decades, and we know what works here.
First, we listen. You tell us what’s going on—whether it’s a breaker that keeps tripping, outlets that don’t work, or you just want a backup generator installed before the next storm. We ask a few questions to understand the scope, then schedule a time that works for you.
When we arrive, we assess the situation thoroughly. That means checking your electrical panel, testing circuits, and identifying the actual cause of the problem—not just the symptom. We explain what we find in straightforward terms, walk you through your options, and give you transparent pricing before we start any work.
Once you approve, we get to work. Our electricians handle everything from simple repairs to complete panel upgrades, whole-house surge protection, and generator installations. We clean up after ourselves, make sure everything is code-compliant, and test the system to confirm it’s working properly. You’re not left guessing whether the job was done right—you’ll know because it works.

We handle the full range of home electrical work. That includes troubleshooting and repairs when something stops working, panel upgrades when your system can’t keep up with demand, and home wiring installation for renovations or new construction. If your home was built more than 20 years ago, there’s a good chance your panel isn’t sized for today’s electrical load—especially with EVs, smart home systems, and high-efficiency HVAC units becoming standard.
Whole-house surge protection is another service we recommend for Argyle homes. Texas storms are unpredictable, and a single lightning strike can destroy thousands of dollars in electronics. Surge protection at the panel level stops that damage before it reaches your devices.
Generator installation is increasingly common here too. With ERCOT projecting a 50% increase in electricity demand by 2029 and Texas weather patterns becoming more severe, backup power isn’t a luxury anymore—it’s a necessity. We install standby generators that kick on automatically when the grid goes down, so your family stays comfortable and your food stays cold.
We also install EV charging stations, recessed lighting, and handle electrical safety inspections. Whatever your home needs, we’ve done it before, and we’ll make sure it’s done right.
If your breakers trip frequently, your lights dim when you turn on appliances, or your panel is warm to the touch, those are clear signs your system is overloaded. Most homes built before 2000 have 100-amp or 150-amp panels, which aren’t designed to handle modern electrical demands.
Today’s homes use significantly more power. You’ve got HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, computers, smart devices, and possibly an electric vehicle charger. All of that adds up fast. When your panel can’t distribute enough power, circuits overload, breakers trip, and in the worst cases, wiring overheats.
An upgrade to a 200-amp panel gives you the capacity to run everything safely without constantly resetting breakers. It also brings your system up to current code, which matters if you ever sell your home. We assess your current setup, calculate your actual load requirements, and recommend the right size panel for how you live. The upgrade typically takes a day, and the difference in reliability is immediate.
Power strips protect individual devices plugged into them. A whole-house surge protector installs at your electrical panel and protects everything in your home at once. It’s a much more comprehensive solution, especially in Texas where lightning and grid fluctuations are common.
When a surge hits your home—whether from lightning, a downed power line, or the grid switching—it enters through your main electrical service. A whole-house protector stops it right there before it can reach your outlets. That means your HVAC system, refrigerator, washer, dryer, computers, and entertainment systems are all protected without needing individual devices plugged into strips.
Power strips are still useful for sensitive electronics, but they’re a second layer of defense, not the primary one. Whole-house protection costs a few hundred dollars to install and can save you thousands in damaged equipment. Given how much Argyle homeowners have invested in appliances and smart home systems, it’s one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make.
Most standby generator installations take two to three days from start to finish. That includes setting the concrete pad, running the gas or propane line, installing the transfer switch at your electrical panel, and connecting the generator itself.
The process starts with a site assessment. We determine the best location for the generator—usually on the side or back of your home—and calculate what size unit you need based on what you want to power during an outage. A whole-house generator that runs everything costs more than a unit that covers essentials like HVAC, refrigerator, and a few outlets, so we help you decide what makes sense for your budget.
Once the generator is installed, we test it under load to make sure it kicks on automatically when power drops and switches back seamlessly when the grid returns. We also walk you through basic maintenance, which is minimal—mostly just periodic test runs and annual servicing. Given how often North Texas loses power during storms, a generator pays for itself in peace of mind alone.
Yes. We install Level 2 EV chargers, which are the most common for residential use. These charge your vehicle significantly faster than a standard 120-volt outlet—usually adding 25 to 30 miles of range per hour instead of 3 to 5.
The installation involves running a dedicated 240-volt circuit from your electrical panel to wherever you park your vehicle, typically in your garage or driveway. We mount the charging unit, connect it to the circuit, and test it to make sure it’s communicating properly with your car. Most installations take half a day.
One thing to consider: if your panel is already near capacity, adding an EV charger might require a panel upgrade first. We assess that during the initial visit and let you know what’s needed. With more than 300,000 EVs registered in Texas as of 2024—and that number growing fast—having a home charger isn’t just convenient, it’s becoming essential. You charge overnight at lower electricity rates and never have to wait at a public station.
Turn off power to that area immediately if you can do so safely, and call an electrician right away. A burning smell means something is overheating—either a wire, a breaker, or a connection—and that’s a fire hazard.
Don’t ignore it or assume it will go away on its own. Electrical fires often start small and smolder inside walls before they become visible. If the smell is coming from your panel, don’t open it yourself. Panels carry live voltage even when breakers are off, and you can be seriously injured.
We offer emergency electrical services and can usually get to you within a couple of hours. When we arrive, we’ll identify the source of the problem—whether it’s a loose connection, an overloaded circuit, or damaged wiring—and fix it before it becomes dangerous. Electrical issues don’t get better with time. They get worse. If something doesn’t look, sound, or smell right, trust your instincts and get it checked.
It depends entirely on what needs to be done. A simple repair like replacing a faulty outlet might cost a couple hundred dollars. A panel upgrade typically runs between $2,000 and $4,000 depending on the size and complexity. Whole-house surge protection is usually $400 to $800 installed. Generator installations range from $5,000 to $15,000 based on the unit size and fuel type.
We don’t give vague estimates over the phone because every home is different. What we do is come out, assess the situation, and give you transparent pricing before we start. You’ll know exactly what the work costs, what’s included, and how long it will take. No surprises when the job’s done.
One thing to keep in mind: the cheapest bid isn’t always the best value. Electrical work that’s done wrong can fail inspections, create safety hazards, or need to be redone entirely. You’re paying for licensed electricians who’ve been doing this for 25 years, who pull permits when required, and who stand behind their work. That’s worth more than saving a few bucks upfront with someone who cuts corners.
