Repairs for a house that is selling
One of the services we offer is making the repairs to a house when the buyer wants things updated or made safer by the seller. We recently got a call about a house that had a gfci not working in a bathroom, 2 prong outlets that needed to be changed to 3 prong and made safe, and a double tapped breaker that needed one of the wires moved. As you'll see below, we not only make the repairs, we document them thoroughly in order to protect our customers. Video showing the verificat

Funeral Home Outdoor Lights
A local funeral home contacted us about replacing their outdoor lighting with newer, nicer fixtures. We replaced the old ungrounded fixtures down this sidewalk with these new ones. Not seen are the 2 floodlights we installed pointing up at the building that you notice illuminating it. One of the fixtures we installed to replace the old ones on the sidewalk going down Main Street of New Castle, Kentucky. Another new fixture. Each one of the lights going down Main Street is pro

Lightning struck house
We got a call from a customer about a lightning strike in the middle of the night that left their house smelling like smoke and destroyed their computer and router.

We replaced the break

Chandelier and Outdoor Fan Update
Our client in New Castle, Kentucky had a single chandelier in the center of the dining room over their off-center dining room table, so they wanted to update with two chandeliers located over the table. We presented the client with a catalog of options, and they picked a beautiful style. We were able to pull the power from the old chandelier, and use it to power the new ones, so no switches or circuits needed to be changed. The drywall is covered with a blank circular cover,

Old Barn, New Power
Our client in Turners Station, Kentucky wanted new lights and receptacles in his barn. Unfortunately, the old main breaker box was in very rough shape, and the house on the property is dilapidated. We recommended a new main breaker panel, and disconnecting the house entirely. The client agreed and we got to work. First we removed the old breaker panel, and installed the new one. Interior of new breaker panel. Exterior of new breaker panel. The old conduit and wires went to th

Overhead to outbuilding
A customer hired us to run a single 20 amp circuit to their outbuilding. They wanted to run it overhead to avoid tearing up their parking area for their vehicles. Since there will be vehicles below these lines, the code requires that they be a minimum of 12 feet above final grade. Since it was an outbuilding, the circuit had to be GFCI protected, but being a single 20 amp circuit meant that we could use a single 20 amp breaker coming from the main panel for the property. We u
