Garage Electrical Installation in Kirtland, NM

Whether it is an attached garage, a detached shop, or a metal building out back, our electricians wire garages across Kirtland for the way you actually use them.

  • 240V circuits for welders and compressors
  • Sub panels for garages and shops
  • EV charger circuits

Local knowledge for Kirtland, San Juan County

Northwest New Mexico's plateau country brings freezing winter nights, spring wind, and summer lightning. Around Kirtland, that means voltage drop on long feeders, weathered outdoor equipment, and electrical systems that have been added onto over the years.

Electric service in San Juan County is typically provided by Farmington Electric Utility System, the City of Aztec, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

We provide garage electrical work throughout Kirtland and in nearby Waterflow, Fruitland, Farmington, and Flora Vista.
