Homes built before 1980 often have outdated panels, knob-and-tube wiring, or insufficient grounding. We know how to upgrade safely while preserving your home's structure.

King County & City Codes

Each city—Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Renton—has slightly different permit rules and inspection requirements. We handle all of them locally.

Why Hire a Licensed Electrician?

Safety, code compliance, and accountability.

Electrical work requires a license in Washington State for a reason.

Licensed electricians pass exams, maintain insurance, and follow code. We can pull permits, schedule inspections, and guarantee our work is safe and legal. Unlicensed work can void your home insurance, create resale problems, or cause fires.

  • Licensed & Bonded: We're certified by Washington State and carry liability insurance on every job.
  • Code Compliance: We follow the Washington Electrical Code and local requirements. Inspectors will approve our work.
  • Warranties: We stand behind our installations. If something fails due to our workmanship, we fix it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What permits do I need for electrical work in King County?

Most electrical work in King County and Seattle requires a permit. Panel upgrades, EV charger installation, rewiring, and new circuits all need permits and final inspection before they're legal. We handle the paperwork and coordinate inspections for you.

How long does an electrical panel upgrade take?

A typical 150-amp panel upgrade takes 1–2 days from installation to inspection. We'll schedule the utility disconnect and work around your schedule to minimize disruption.

Do I qualify for rebates or incentives for EV charger installation?

Washington State offers rebates for home electrification, including EV chargers. Your utility company may also have incentive programs. We can help you explore options available in your area.

Do I need panel upgrade for a Level 2 EV charger?

Not always. If your panel has 40+ amps available, we can install a charger without upgrading. Older panels or those near capacity may need expansion. We assess your home during consultation.

Can you work on commercial electrical projects?

Yes. We handle commercial wiring, panel upgrades, safety inspections, and EV charging for businesses throughout King County. Call for a commercial estimate.

What should I do if I suspect outdated wiring in my home?

Schedule a home electrical safety inspection. We'll identify hazards, test grounding, check for code violations, and recommend safe upgrades. Document findings for your records and real-estate file.
