What a house rewiring includes

Rewiring adobe and plaster homes around Las Cruces takes patience. We fish wire through attics, crawl spaces, and chases wherever we can, and use surface raceway where solid walls leave no other route.

Why Las Cruces properties call a local electrician

The Chihuahuan Desert climate around Las Cruces means months of high cooling loads, intense sun, and dramatic late-summer storms. Many homes in Dona Ana County are converting from evaporative cooling to refrigerated air, which usually calls for a new 240 volt circuit and sometimes a larger panel.

Electric service in Dona Ana County is typically provided by El Paso Electric. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
