Canterbury's trusted source for licensed electrical services — from outlet repairs to full panel upgrades, done right the first time.
From panel upgrades to EV charger installation, our licensed electricians handle every residential and commercial electrical need.
Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.
Minimize downtime and keep your business running with commercial electrical services designed for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and restaurants. Reliable power protects your revenue and your reputation.
Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, making professional detector placement critical. Properly installed CO detectors give your family early warning before dangerous levels build up.
Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.
We disconnect the utility feed, swap your outdated panel for a modern load center, re-land every circuit on correctly rated breakers, and coordinate the final inspection with your municipality.
Ceiling fans involve heavy fixtures and live wiring above your head. Our licensed electricians ensure every connection is secure, every mount is load-rated, and every fan runs safely.
Add outlets exactly where you need them and eliminate extension cord clutter. New outlets improve convenience, reduce fire hazards, and increase your home value.
Highlight your home exterior, illuminate walkways, and boost curb appeal with professionally designed landscape lighting. A well-lit property also deters intruders and prevents trips and falls.
Breakers that trip repeatedly are warning you of a serious problem. Forcing them back on risks fire or electrocution. Our electricians safely diagnose whether the issue is the breaker, the wiring, or an overload.
We remove old fixtures, upgrade the electrical box if needed, connect and mount the new fixture securely, and test dimmer compatibility so your lights perform exactly as expected.
Our electricians diagnose the root cause of the problem, explain the repair before starting, fix the issue with commercial-grade materials, and test the circuit to confirm a lasting solution.
Working smoke detectors cut your risk of dying in a home fire nearly in half. Hardwired, interconnected units alert your entire household the moment smoke is detected anywhere.
Our licensed electricians handle every step of your generator install, from sizing the unit and pouring the pad to wiring the automatic transfer switch and final testing.
Professionally wired security cameras deliver reliable 24/7 recording without Wi-Fi dropouts or battery hassles. Protect your home and family with a surveillance system you can count on.
Smart devices need proper wiring to function reliably. Many older homes lack neutral wires in switch boxes, causing flickering or device failure. Our electricians verify and upgrade wiring so your smart home works right.
A whole-house surge protector shields every appliance, device, and electronic system in your home from voltage spikes. One device at the panel protects thousands of dollars in equipment.
Recessed lights create a clean, modern look while flooding your rooms with even illumination. LED recessed fixtures also cut your lighting energy use by up to 75 percent.
Improper doorbell wiring can damage your transformer or void your warranty. Our electricians verify voltage, test connections, and ensure your Ring operates safely and reliably.
Water and electricity are a deadly combination. Pool and hot tub wiring requires GFCI protection, proper bonding of all metal surfaces, and specific clearance distances. Our electricians follow NEC Article 680 to the letter.
An electrical inspection reveals hidden hazards, code violations, and aging components before they cause problems. Protect your investment whether you are buying, selling, or simply maintaining your home.
We use thermal imaging, multimeters, and circuit analyzers to trace faults through your wiring, identify the exact failure point, and recommend the most cost-effective repair.
We review your project requirements, pull necessary permits, install wiring and devices using commercial-grade materials, and schedule the final inspection to close out the permit properly.
Aluminum wiring installed in homes from the 1960s and 1970s is a documented fire hazard. Replacing it with modern copper wiring dramatically reduces your risk and may lower your insurance premiums.
