We provide a firm written quote before work begins, so Lake Lure customers never see surprise charges.
“Our breaker panel was over 40 years old and the electrician walked me through every option before we chose a 200 amp upgrade. Clean install, passed inspection the first time.”
“Honest advice. They told me I didn't need a full panel upgrade for my EV charger — just a load manager — and saved me a lot of money.”
“Our chandelier in the two-story foyer was hung perfectly. They brought the right equipment and were done in a couple of hours.”

A portable generator with a properly installed transfer switch and inlet is a safe, lower-cost option. Never backfeed a generator through a dryer outlet — it is dangerous to you and to utility workers.
Installed cost varies with generator size, distance from the panel and fuel source. We provide a complete quote covering the electrical installation, transfer switch and permits. Call (888) 592-6466.
