Electrical Upgrading

There are many reasons to upgrade the electrical system in your home. If your home is more than 25 years old, you are thinking about a renovation that will add a high power consumption appliance like a hot tub, air conditioner or spa, or you suspect there are issues with your current system. An updated panel with new wiring will make your home safer as well as add value and piece of mind. Call the professionals at T.K. Electric to discuss how best to deal with your electrical system.
