What we build
Higher-consequenceelectrical work
The work below is where a shortcut shows up years later — in a nuisance trip, a warm breaker, or a lighting scene nobody can use. It's the work we've organized the company around.
EV Charging
Level 2 installs with a clean conduit path, correct breaker sizing, and a home run that doesn't fight the rest of the panel.
Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 · Load management
Generator Readiness
Interlocks, transfer switches, and pre-wire for standby units so an outage is an inconvenience instead of an event.
Manual & automatic transfer · Critical-load panels
Custom LED Lighting
Layered lighting design and installation — cove and linear runs, exterior grazing, tunable white, and controls that a homeowner can actually operate.
Design-assist · Dimming & controls · Trim coordination
Commercial Service
Tenant improvements, lighting retrofits, panel and switchgear work, and scheduled service for buildings that can't lose a day.
TI & retrofit · After-hours scheduling
New Construction & Remodel
Rough-in through trim on custom homes and gut remodels, sequenced to the builder's schedule and documented as we go.
Full rough & trim · Low voltage coordination
Smart Home Electrical Integration
Modern controls should make a home easier to live in. We install and plan smart lighting, dimmers, timers, energy monitoring, EV-ready power, generator monitoring, and future-ready electrical infrastructure for homes that are more comfortable, efficient, and connected.

A trade partnerwho holds the schedule.
Most of our volume comes from repeat builder and GC relationships. That only works if we show up when we said, leave the work ready for the next trade, and tell you early when something in the plan won't work.

Panel Upgrades · Boise
400A service upgrade on a 1970s foothills home
A full meter main and panel replacement on a house that had outgrown its 100A service, with the branch circuits re-terminated and labeled before the inspector arrived.

EV Charging · Meridian
Level 2 charger on an existing 200A service
A hardwired 48A charger added without touching the service, using a load calculation and a clean exterior conduit run off the panel wall.

Generator Readiness · Eagle
Standby generator and critical-load transfer
A standby unit set on a pad with an automatic transfer switch and a critical-load subpanel, so an outage moves the well pump and the furnace, not the whole house.

Neat rough-in, labeled circuits, protected finishes, and a clean site at the end of every day. Inspections handled by us.
