Electrical Inspection for Lamy homes and businesses
Lamy is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Santa Fe County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.
Electric service in Santa Fe County is typically provided by PNM or a rural electric cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
Call us for electrical inspections anywhere in Lamy, or in nearby Cerrillos, Glorieta, Rowe, and Pecos.
