The need for upgrading electrical wiring in homes is becoming more prevalent these days as homeowners use more and more devices and appliances that require additional electricity. Long gone are the days when kitchen appliances, one television set, and a few lamps were the primary electrical draws. Now, there are multiple device chargers, multiple televisions, computers, video game consoles, and more to plug into outlets throughout the home. Upgrading electrical wiring will ensure you can continue accessing the electricity you need safely and efficiently.

If you live in an older home, the need for new electrical wiring may be even more urgent, because wiring from 30 years ago can typically not support modern day electrical needs. Faulty or problematic wiring is a leading cause of residential fires, so this is definitely not something to put off if you think there may be an issue.

Working from home is not only convenient but it is economical. Many people run businesses out of their homes and for those of you who are thinking about doing the same – you can too. Change a room in your home into a fully functioning office with our help.

One thing that most businesses have is a phone number. You may not want your business calls being directed to your home phone number otherwise you will have family members answering for you and after-hours business calls you may not have wanted to answer. We can help install a separate phone line in your office so you can have a dedicated, business phone number. This way your business and home communication are completely independent from each other.

When designing and setting up your home office, keep in mind which electronics are going where and how much power they will require. If you have a laser or large sized printer in your office, it may have a heavy draw on your power supply. Ensure that the circuit that your home office is on and the GFCI outlet can handle the load of your printer, computer, and any other electronics you need. You don’t want to trip the breaker and cause a power outage by printing out a document for one of your clients. Have one of our expert electricians review the wiring setup and test the outlet before you set up your electronics.

If you’re having meetings in your office, a proper lighting set up is important. Sometimes your office can be located in an area of the home that does not receive sufficient exterior light. Having a dimly lit room for meetings can disrupt the workflow and make it uncomfortable for all attendees. Assess the light levels at different intervals to see if you require improvements in your overhead lighting. Installing pot lights or track lights can create a comfortable atmosphere and makes it much easier to work.

When you setup your office at home you were likely thinking about economics and efficiency. With our help we can make sure that you are making the most out of your home office and that it is a place of efficiency that doesn’t overflow into your down time.

Modern technology has significantly changed the process of getting a quote for solar panel installation, much less the technology itself. If you’re contemplating a solar array at your home, you can translate your speculation into a firm quote in a very short amount of time.

It all starts when you call us. We’ll use satellite pictures of your home to get an idea of the available square footage for an array. Some sides of your roof are going to be better than others for sun exposure, depending on the orientation of your home. Using the surfaces that face the sun first, we can reduce the overall cost of installation.

Understanding your goals with a solar array are critical. Do you plan on going off the grid completely? Or are you more interested in subsidizing your energy bill? Of course, the more extensive your aspirations with a solar array, the larger such an array will be. In some cases, it might be necessary to install more complex infrastructure to accommodate a system that meets your needs.

With that information, we can move forward with quotes into the realm of financing. Traditionally, investing in a solar array is a big investment, but times are changing. Gracious tax rebates and incentive programs exist to give homeowners unprecedented savings on solar installations. Depending on the area you live in, these deals can amount to a solar leasing arrangement with little to no money down. The cost of the array is paid back over the years, as you enjoy decreased energy bills.

As you can see, turning your dreams of a solar installation into reality can happen very quickly, when you talk to the right people. Let us help you explore the potential of a solar array at your home. It all starts with a quick phone call and it could change your energy bill for the rest of your life.
