Homeowners and businesses across Newport choose C E Barton Electric for whole house surge protection because we combine the responsiveness of a local electrician with the depth of a full-service electrical contractor.
Every project is different, but the main cost factors are the scope of work, materials and fixtures selected, the distance wire must run from the panel, accessibility (attic, crawlspace or finished walls) and whether a permit and inspection are required. We provide a firm written quote before work begins, so Newport customers never see surprise charges.
“Doorbell transformer upgrade fixed our video doorbell dropping offline. Quick, inexpensive and exactly what was needed.”

Surge protectors wear with each event. Most have an indicator light; we check them during inspections.
No device can guarantee protection from a direct strike, but panel-mounted surge protection dramatically reduces damage from nearby strikes and utility surges — the most common cause of damage in Newport, NC.
Layered protection is best: a whole house unit at the panel plus quality point-of-use protectors for computers and TVs.
