We run Cat6 or coax cable from each camera location to your DVR or NVR, mount cameras at optimal angles, install weatherproof junction boxes, and power everything through a centralized system.

Whole House Surge Protector

We install a Type 2 surge protection device directly at your electrical panel, wire it to a dedicated double-pole breaker, and verify the grounding system that makes it effective.

EV Charger Installation

Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.

Add outlets exactly where you need them and eliminate extension cord clutter. New outlets improve convenience, reduce fire hazards, and increase your home value.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

Aluminum wiring installed in homes from the 1960s and 1970s is a documented fire hazard. Replacing it with modern copper wiring dramatically reduces your risk and may lower your insurance premiums.
