How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?

Common signs are a 100-amp or smaller service on a house that has since added central air, a shop or an electric range; breakers that trip repeatedly; a fuse box rather than breakers; or a panel with scorched, corroded or loose breakers. An electrical safety inspection can tell you where yours stands.

Do you pull permits for electrical work?

Yes, where the work requires one. That typically means panel changes, service upgrades, new circuits and rewires. Where an inspection is required, we can coordinate it and leave you the paperwork, which matters when you sell the house or file an insurance claim.

What size standby generator do I need?

It depends on whether you want the essentials or the whole house. A well pump, furnace blower, refrigerator and some lights typically fit a smaller unit; adding central air conditioning and an electric range pushes you toward a whole-house size. We can work out your actual load and price both options, with running costs.

How can I tell if my wiring is outdated or unsafe?

Warning signs include outlet covers that feel warm or look discolored, a burning smell near an outlet or the panel, breakers that trip again and again, outlets that spark when you plug something in, and aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring still in service. Any of those is worth an inspection rather than a wait-and-see.

Do you install EV chargers?

Yes. We check whether your panel has the available capacity, run the dedicated 240-volt circuit, install the charger and pull the permit where one is required. If the panel is already at capacity, we can quote the service upgrade alongside so you see the full cost before deciding.

What We Handle

Service work, planned upgrades and full rough-in — houses, storefronts, offices and industrial facilities. A lot of the building stock around Monett and Pierce City was wired for a very different set of appliances than the one you own now, and most of what we do is bringing that capacity forward safely.

Panels & Service Upgrades

Moving from 100-amp to 200-amp service, replacing worn or undersized panels, and adding the capacity a shop, central AC or an EV needs. Where the utility has to disconnect and reconnect, we coordinate with them to keep the outage as short as we can.

100- to 200-amp service upgrades
Panel replacement for worn or undersized equipment
Subpanels for shops, barns and additions
Meter base and service mast repair

Wiring & Circuits

Whole-home rewires on older houses, dedicated circuits for the appliances that keep tripping a shared one, and correction of the "handyman specials" we still find in walls — backstabbed outlets, buried junction boxes and shared neutrals.

Whole-home and partial rewiring
Knob-and-tube and aluminum branch circuit remediation

Electrical safety inspections

Generators & Power Protection

Ice storms take this region's power out most winters, and the surge on the way back can be as expensive as the outage. A properly sized standby unit with an automatic transfer switch keeps the well pump, furnace and refrigerator running whether or not you're home, and a whole-home surge protector guards everything with a circuit board in it.

Lighting, EV & Troubleshooting

Fixture and can-light retrofits, exterior and security lighting, EV charger circuits, and the intermittent fault nobody else could find. Troubleshooting is a skill — we'd rather spend an hour locating the actual cause than an afternoon replacing parts that were fine.

Old wiring isn't automatically bad wiring, but it is worth knowing. Knob-and-tube and aluminum branch circuits are still in service in older homes around Monett. An electrical safety inspection shows what is there and what condition it is in, so you can decide between targeted remediation and a partial or whole-home rewire.
