Safe, Smart Solutions for Every Electrical Project
Electrical Upgrades and Installs That Fit Your Space and Your Budget
- Built for Your Space, Your Budget, and Your Goals
Every Space Is Different. That’s Why We Don’t Use a One-Size Approach
We don’t just show up and start installing. Whether you’re updating old wiring, adding new lighting, or expanding a space, we look at what makes sense for your setup. In Danville and across Central Illinois, that often means working with older systems, tight budgets, or unique building needs. No upsells. No overengineering. Just clean installs, smart upgrades, and work that fits how you use the space.
Residential Electrical Installs
We help Danville homeowners tackle real electrical needs, Panel upgrades, added circuits, and safe wiring for additions or remodels. A lot of local homes weren’t built for modern electrical loads, so we focus on making sure your system is secure, reliable, and meets code. No upsells, no extra steps that don’t serve a purpose.
Commercial Electrical Installs
From storefronts to workshops, we build electrical systems that support the way you work. That includes lighting installs, machine hookups, tenant buildouts, and everything in between. We plan around your space, keep the process efficient, and make sure permits and timelines stay on track.

03
Review Scope and Cost
We’ll lay out the scope, materials, timeline, and cost. No vague estimates. No pressure to decide on the spot.

Schedule and Install

Electrical Work That Fits the Space and the Scope
In Danville, we see a wide range of electrical needs. From older homes with outdated wiring to shops that need more power to expand. Whether you’re finishing a basement, rewiring part of a rental, or planning a new layout for a small business, we handle installs that match the setup, workload, and budget. These are the kinds of calls we get most often from homeowners and business owners in Danville and nearby areas:
- Panel upgrades: To handle increased load, meet code requirements, or replace outdated equipment.
- Circuit breakers and subpanels: Common in homes with additions, garages, or separate workspaces.
- Whole-home rewiring: For major remodels or older homes with outdated electrical systems.
- Outlet and switch upgrades: Replacing worn or loose devices or adding more where needed.
- Ceiling fan and light fixture wiring: Especially for heavier or higher-demand fixtures.
- New wiring for additions or remodels: Planned around how the space will actually be used.
- Outbuilding and barn wiring: Wiring for detached garages, pole barns, and small agricultural buildings.

- Planning Ahead Pays Off
Here’s When an Electrical Upgrade Makes Sense
Most systems don’t show obvious signs before they start to fall behind. If your place is older, you’re planning updates, or just outgrowing your panel, here are the most common reasons people in Danville call us for upgrades:
- You’re renovating or adding space: New spaces often need new circuits, and older panels aren’t always built to handle more load.
- Your panel’s full or overloaded: No open breaker slots, double-tapped wires, or frequent tripping? Time to take a closer look.
- You’re adding high-demand equipment: Things like HVAC units, commercial appliances, or even welders require more dedicated power.
- You’ve still got a 60-amp or 100-amp service: Many older homes in Danville still run on these. Today’s electrical needs usually require 150 or 200 amps.
- Lights dim when appliances run: A common sign that your system can’t keep up, especially in homes with older wiring.
- You’re adding smart tech or automation: Some systems need updated wiring or stronger low-voltage support for stable performance.
- Your wiring is outdated or unsafe: Knob-and-tube, aluminum, or brittle insulation? These should be replaced, especially during other upgrades.
- You’re getting ready to sell or refinance: Electrical issues flagged in an inspection can delay closing or lower your appraised value.
Not sure if it’s time? We’ll take a look and talk through what makes sense. No pressure.

- What People Ask Us Most
Electrical FAQs
Breakers trip to protect your home when there’s too much electrical demand on a circuit or a wiring problem. Common causes include overloaded circuits, faulty appliances, or a short circuit. If it happens frequently, have us take a look— we’ll track down the issue and get it fixed safely.
If your panel is over 25 years old, still uses fuses instead of breakers, or you’re adding new appliances and systems to your home, it may be time for an upgrade. Outdated panels might not meet current safety codes and could pose a fire risk. We can assess your panel and recommend the best solution.
Flickering or dimming lights can happen for a few reasons:
- Loose wiring or connections
- Overloaded circuits
- Aging fixtures
- Issues at the electrical panel
- Non-dimmable bulbs used with a dimmer switch
If it’s happening often or across multiple rooms, it’s time to get it checked. We’ll track down the cause and take care of it before it turns into a bigger issue.
Signs of unsafe or outdated wiring include frequent breaker trips, buzzing outlets, warm switch plates, flickering lights, or two-prong outlets. Homes built before the 1970s may still have older wiring that’s no longer safe. We can conduct a safety inspection and inform you if any updates are required.
In most areas, permits are required for major electrical changes like panel upgrades, new circuit installations, rewiring, or installing backup generators. We pull the necessary permits for every job we’re on, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
Here are a few smart ways to lower your energy use:
Switch to LED bulbs—they use less power and last longer
Unplug electronics and chargers when not in use
Use programmable or smart thermostats to manage heating and cooling
Have your electrical system inspected for outdated wiring or inefficient appliances
Consider whole-home surge protection and other energy-efficient upgrades
Small changes add up. We can help you spot what’s worth updating to keep costs down.
If an outlet or plug feels warm to the touch, it could be a sign of loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a failing outlet. While some slight warmth can be normal for high-power devices like space heaters or hair dryers while in use, the outlet itself should never feel hot. If you notice this, have us take a look right away — it could be a warning sign of a larger electrical issue or fire hazard.
Service PlansWe recommend having a licensed professional inspect your home’s electrical system at least every 3-5 years, or anytime you notice signs of trouble like frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or outdated outlets. Regular inspections help catch small issues before they become major problems.
