A property manager calling about a tenant's dead outlets needs the same thing a contractor calling about a half-finished build-out needs: someone who can scope the job on the phone, confirm a price, and get it on the schedule. We handle electrical work across Spokane and the surrounding area, seven days a week from 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM. Residential repairs, panel upgrades, new circuits, full rewires, and commercial installations all fall within what we do.
Spokane is a city with a wide range of housing stock, from older homes on original wiring to newer construction that still needs circuits added or panels sized up for modern loads. Builders, landlords, and homeowners all call for different reasons, but the process is the same. Call, describe what you are dealing with, and we scope the job before anything is scheduled. We handle the full range of electrical work for this area, and the rate is confirmed on the phone before we arrive.
Electrical pricing depends on what the job actually involves, and that is not always clear until someone looks at it. A tripping breaker could mean a failing breaker that gets swapped out in an hour, or it could mean a wiring fault that runs back through several circuits. A lighting installation in a finished room is a different scope than the same fixture in a space where the ceiling is still open. What the fault turns out to be, what has to be opened up to reach it, and whether the existing panel can carry the change are the things that move a price.
When you call, we ask about the situation and give you a rate based on what the job involves. If the scope changes once we are on site, we tell you before we proceed. The price is confirmed before anything is scheduled, and you know what it covers before we arrive. Do not ask for a number before you call. Describe what you are seeing, and we will give you one.
Getting an appointment on the calendar is straightforward. We are available every day from 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM, which means you are not waiting until Monday for a repair that should not wait. For problems that cannot be put off, we take short-notice work and can schedule around what the calendar allows when you call.
For rental properties and occupied commercial spaces, we work around tenants and business hours. If a circuit needs to be de-energized for part of the work, we confirm that on the call so the tenant or the business can plan for it. We protect your floors and finishes while we work, and the space is left clean when we are done.
Renovation projects and additions involve multiple trades, and the order matters. Rough-in wiring has to happen after framing is up but before insulation and drywall close everything off. If the electrician comes in too late, walls have to be opened back up, which adds time and cost to every trade that follows. Panel capacity has to be confirmed before the rough-in starts, not after, because a panel that cannot carry the new load changes the scope of the whole project.
We coordinate directly with general contractors and project managers to fit the electrical work into the right phase of the build. That means confirming what circuits are needed, where the panel stands, and whether a service upgrade is part of the scope before any other work is scheduled around us.
Tenant build-outs in commercial spaces often involve dedicated circuits for equipment, lighting layout changes, and panel work that has to be completed before the space can be occupied. We handle the electrical side of those projects and work with the general contractor or the property manager to keep the timeline on track. The scope is confirmed on the call and the work is scheduled to fit the broader project, not around our convenience.
A full rewire comes up when the existing wiring is a type that cannot be safely updated in place, or when the scope of deterioration is wide enough that individual repairs would not address the underlying condition. Knob-and-tube replacement falls into this category. So does a partial rewire when a renovation opens up walls and the wiring behind them turns out to be in worse shape than expected. We look at what is there before recommending a scope, and we explain what the work involves before anything is scheduled.
Electric ranges, wall ovens, and dryers all draw more current than a shared circuit can safely carry. Running a dedicated circuit for each one means the panel has a breaker sized specifically for that load, and the wiring from the panel to the appliance location is matched to it. If the panel does not have the capacity or the open slots, that gets addressed as part of the same job. We confirm what the panel can carry before the circuit is run.
Outdoor lighting covers a wide range of work, from a single fixture at an entry door to a full landscape lighting circuit with multiple runs and a dedicated breaker. Security lighting, motion-sensor fixtures, and soffit lighting all require weatherproof wiring and proper GFCI protection at outdoor outlets. We handle the circuit from the panel to the fixture location and confirm the installation is protected correctly before the job is closed out.
Three-way switching controls a single fixture from two locations, and four-way switching extends that to three or more. Stairways, hallways, and large rooms with multiple entry points are where this comes up most often. The wiring involves more conductors than a standard switch loop, and getting the traveler wires correct is where most DIY attempts go wrong. We wire it right the first time and test every switch location before we leave.
Homes built during certain decades used aluminum branch-circuit wiring, and the problem is not the wire itself but what happens at the connection points over time. Aluminum expands and contracts differently than copper, which loosens connections and creates heat at outlets, switches, and fixtures. Remediation involves going through every connection point in the home and either replacing the terminations with approved connectors or pigtailing with copper. We check the full run rather than just the visible points, and wiring work is checked against code before sign-off.
Older properties in Spokane sometimes have panels, fixtures, and devices that have not been in regular production for years. A breaker that fits a specific older panel may not be available off the shelf. A fixture with a proprietary mounting may need an adapter or a replacement that matches the existing rough-in. When a part has to be ordered rather than fitted the same day, we tell you on the call and confirm the timeline before the visit is scheduled.
Where a component is genuinely obsolete, we explain the options. Sometimes the right answer is a compatible replacement that fits the existing wiring. Sometimes the obsolescence is the reason a panel upgrade or a partial rewire makes more sense than hunting for a part that is no longer manufactured. Either way, you get a straight answer before any work starts. We make the fix and leave it tidy.
We cover Spokane and extend through Spokane County to the surrounding communities. Town and Country, Country Homes, Airway Heights, Fairwood, and Millwood are all within the area we serve regularly. Whether the job is in a single-family home, a multi-unit building, or a commercial space anywhere in the county, we handle it the same way.
The scope is confirmed on the call, the price is given before anything is booked, and the work is done to the code inspectors here enforce. We are available every day from 7:00 AM to 10:30 PM. Call and we will handle the lights, outlets, and panel. Take a look at our wiring and panel services page to see what else is covered.
Two Level 2 chargers draw roughly twice the load of one, which means the panel needs to have the capacity to carry both circuits simultaneously. We do a load calculation before any charger installation to confirm the panel can handle the combined draw. If it cannot, a panel upgrade becomes part of the conversation before the chargers are installed.
We can coordinate across units and work around tenant schedules, but the scope and price are confirmed per job rather than as a blanket rate. If you have several units that need work, call and describe what each one involves. We will give you a rate for each job and work out a schedule that minimizes disruption to tenants.
Yes. Where opening a wall is not an option, surface raceway allows new wiring to be run along the wall surface in a protective channel. It is a practical solution in finished spaces where a concealed run would require significant repair work. We explain the options on the call and confirm which approach fits the situation.
When multiple properties go dark at once, the cause is usually on the utility side of the meter rather than inside your home. We can help you confirm whether the fault is in your wiring or on the supply line, but a widespread outage typically means contacting your utility provider first.
A workshop or garage with power tools, compressors, or car lifts typically needs dedicated circuits sized for the equipment being run. Standard outlets on a shared circuit are not the right answer for high-draw tools that pull significant current on startup. We scope the load and run the circuits the equipment actually needs.
Long stretches of sub-freezing temperatures put real pressure on panels that were not sized for electric heating loads, and ice storms can take out power for days at a time. That is why generator hookups, heat tape circuits, and panel upgrades come up so often in this region. If your panel is struggling to keep up with winter loads, or you want a generator wired in before the next outage season, call and we will scope the job on the phone.
If you suspect the issue is with the utility supply rather than your own wiring, the first call is to your utility provider to report the fault. We can help you confirm which side of the meter the problem originates on, and if it turns out to be on your side, we handle it from there.
Aluminum branch-circuit wiring is not an immediate emergency in every home, but it does need to be evaluated. The risk is at the connection points, where loosening over time creates heat. If you have aluminum wiring and have not had the connections checked, that is worth scheduling. We go through every connection point and tell you what the remediation involves before any work starts.
You do not need to have diagnosed the problem before you call. Describe what you are seeing, and we will work out what the job involves from there. The person who answers the phone can tell you what the visit involves, what it is likely to cost, and what to expect before we arrive.

Below is a breakdown of the electrical work we handle across Coeur d'Alene and the surrounding Spokane County area. Each service is scoped on the call before anything is scheduled, and the price is confirmed before work begins. Whether the job is a straightforward outlet replacement or a full panel upgrade, the process is the same: we find the fault, explain what it involves, and get it handled to the code inspectors here enforce.
| Electrical Service | What the Job Involves | When You Need It | Worth Knowing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ceiling Fan Installation | New fan wiring and mountingFixture replacementSwitch and remote wiringBox reinforcement where needed | Bedrooms, living rooms, and covered outdoor spaces adding or replacing ceiling fans | Older ceiling boxes are often not rated for a fan's weight and movement. We check the box before the fan goes up. |
| Dedicated Appliance Circuits | Ranges, dryers, and refrigeratorsWorkshop and garage equipmentHome office circuitsLoad sizing for each appliance | Homeowners adding a major appliance or workshop equipment that cannot share a circuit | A shared circuit that is already near capacity is not the right answer for a large appliance. We size the dedicated circuit to the actual draw of the equipment. |
| Electrical Panel & Service Upgrades | 100-amp to 200-amp service upgradesLoad calculationsBreaker panel replacementSubpanel additions for garages and outbuildings | Older homes that cannot carry modern electrical loads or are running out of circuit capacity | A load calculation is part of every upgrade so the new service is sized for what the home actually draws, not just what it drew when it was built. |
