Switch and Dimmer Switch Installation in Penasco, NM

Want to dim the dining room, control the hall light from both ends, or turn on the porch light from your phone? Our electricians install every kind of switch in Penasco homes and businesses.

Switch services

LED bulbs need dimmers designed for them. A mismatch causes flicker, buzzing, or lights that never fully turn off. We match the dimmer to your fixtures. Smart switches often need a neutral wire in the switch box, which some older Penasco homes lack; we can add one.

Switch & Dimmer Installation for Penasco homes and businesses

At elevation, Penasco sees cold winters, heavy snow on service lines, and lightning in the summer. Space heaters, heat tape, and well pumps work hard here, and many older homes were wired long before those loads existed.

Electric service in Taos County is typically provided by Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

Our switch installation covers all of Penasco, along with neighboring Chamisal, Vadito, Trampas, and Llano.

Switch & Dimmer Installation FAQs for Penasco

Why do my LED lights flicker on a dimmer?

Usually the dimmer was made for incandescent bulbs, or the LED bulbs are not dimmable. A compatible LED dimmer normally fixes it.

Can you add a switch where there is none?

Yes. We can add a switch for an outlet, a fixture, or a fan, and add three-way control to existing lights.

Do smart switches work in older Penasco homes?

Most do. Some need a neutral wire in the box. If yours has none, we either run one or use a model that does not need it.
