A proactive approach to your electrical system can save you money and inconvenience. Schedule an electrician for a comprehensive inspection at least every several years. You can identify any deterioration and take care of it before it becomes a bigger problem. You can also explore where your system is no longer up to code. Updating it may not be a legal requirement, but it could save money while making your home safer.
One area where many older homes aren’t up to code is their electrical panels. The power demands of the average household have grown substantially over the years. Many newer homes have 150-amp, 250-amp, and even larger capacity electrical panels. Despite that, many older homes have panels that handle less than 100 amps. Those panels often lack surge protection that safeguards against internal and external spikes and surges.
Does it seem like you never have enough outlets and lights in your favorite rooms? Don’t resort to power strips and other situations that can overload your circuits. Instead, have an electrician install the outlets you need. You can add circuits for even more outlets if your electrical panel has room. If you have an older system, you can upgrade to arc- and ground-fault circuit interrupters or even replace the panel.
Panel upgrades are also an excellent time for our electrical company to add lightning. Upgrade to LEDs throughout your home for better illumination and energy savings. Outdoors, consider switching to lights that use solar power and which have battery backups.
Our electricians install and service all electrical systems.

We had a range to install, as well as other "new home" questions, and Josh was our provider. He was very knowledgeable, and able to not only help, but break down the different options for all of our home improvements. He was patient and kind as we talked through all of our different wants, and we'll be asking for him again as we move forward with our continuing projects.
Very professional electrician’s that installed a new outlet box with a switch, then installed the new light fixture. Awesome job, I would use them again for any electrical job I have, thank you!!
We highly recommend anyone who needs an electrician, to use Plugz. It can be overwhelming trying to find someone when you're going through an emergency, but these guys are professionals - it is all that they do and they do it well. Eric came out to diagnose a concerning problem we were experiencing (flickering lights, occasional power loss) and he immediately recognized the danger our family was facing - a potential fire in our panel! He helped us speak to the power company and get someone out immediately even though at first, Xcel customer service told me 5 business days! After a few more phone calls, they rearranged schedules, just to help us out and that same day we had a new electrical panel put in. Eric, Mark, and Ryan were true heroes and we can't thank them enough for being so kind, working diligently, and doing such a great job at a very reasonable price. The fact they helped our family that day, we were blessed, and will support using these guys in the future!
Stop looking !!! This is your company for electrical work, my sister needed an outlet installed for her step climbing chair system, and from the first phone call till the finished job of only a few hours they were completely professional, they even made it out during the blizzard conditions of March 5, precisely on time, courteous, and very fair pricing, customer service that is unheard-of these days,, thanks Plugz for a job very well done. Mark Broderson.
Eric Prahl was great. He was able to come in super quick and fixed most of the house outlets with a great price and very efficiently. Would definitely recommend him. This guy knows his stuff and super friendly.
Eric Prahl was so extremely helpful today! He fixed everything that needed fixing and also let us know of several other issues that we were not aware of. He provided stellar service and was very respectful, kind, and got to know us. Our patio lights are back on just in time for Ramadan. We will definitely be calling Eric for future electric/tech issues that we have - thank you Eric!
Eric at Plugz gave us excellent service at a good price. He is very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the situation and options and then completed the service quickly. Very impressed!
We had a great experience with Plugz Electric and Eric, Mike, and Damon. They had near-immediate availability, estimated the job quickly at a very attractive price, and then performed the work within the next week. They were responsible, courteous, professional, and flexible with the solutions we needed. I would work with them again!
We had a hot tub dedicated circuit installed and they ran wire creatively through a soffit, requiring minimal drywall repair. They didn't sweat the small stuff when the pre-delivered supplies were requiring an extra few feet - they procured more material and didn't charge extra for it. They thoughtfully routed the wiring, sealed the entrances, junction box, and exit, and completed the hot tub connection - everything tested perfectly and the hot tub fired right up!
I asked them some additional questions about our sub-panel, about our exterior outlets, and how to troubleshoot the hot tub at the switch, and they took the time to review my questions and make suggestions.
The only feedback I'd have is that the estimator's notes should be copiously reviewed by the day-of installing technicians and the client to make sure both are on the same page. Also consulting the client about which walls and location they are going to need or have options to drill through would also help align expectations 100% so that there are no surprises after the job is finished. Another good procedure to adopt would be for them to take pictures of before and after, helping them show the work done (and the status before they had started work) to avoid any liability if what existed beforehand were ever to cause an issue.
Thanks to Eric for a few trips out to support our electrical needs for some new kitchen appliances (+ to Donny for his assistance last week too). I didn’t realize that the placement of an outlet for a dishwasher was so important. Eric + Donny also made sure that if this outlet ever trips, we can conveniently reset the breaker rather than having to pull the dishwasher out to reset at the outlet. Appreciate everyone at Plugz for their responsive, no hassle services. Eric finds out what we need + makes it happen. That’s why we keep coming back!
Mike was absolutely INCREDIBLE. My power went out in my bathroom and we had tried everything to get it back on to no success. Mike came out and within 5 minutes had everything back to working order! He truly has the magic touch! He also identified a very serious water damage problem with my breaker and saved me from a possible house fire down the road. Thank you so much Mike!!!!
Morgan and his team, Ben and Mark, were amazing! We needed a new electric panel and Plugz provided very competitive pricing and were able to turn around and service within a week! The team was super professional, timely, and walked us through all of the upgrades while giving a quote and providing the service. I would definitely recommend Plugz for any electrical work!
Mike K. was awesome to work with! Super professional and helpful with diagnosing our problem and helping us to understand what was wrong every step of the way. 11/10 would recommend working with him and this company!
Eric was a straight forward with options to repair my nest doorbell and camera that was previously incorrectly installed. Install the correct transformer to power the doorbell correctly. Works great now and appreciate it. Will keep Eric’s business card on file for future electrical needs we have.
Eric Prahl did a great job with circuit restorations for two circuits in our house. We had a flickering light issue that we were able to get resolved. Eric was accommodating of a schedule I was trying to maintain and completed 75% of the work in the same day. Prices were extremely reasonable and affordable. I would work with them again.
Updating this review - I actually called Eric back for another fix on a separate circuit and he was very clear with multiple options for fixing some concerns I had. Probably fixed all my concerns in about 45 minutes with one additional person supporting him. He has an open line of communication to help document issues anytime they arise in the house so we can troubleshoot even when he’s offsite. I definitely recommend
We had extensive work done that took several days. Morgan, Donny and Tarry were prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. They made the entire process stress free. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
They did an excellent job! Cam understood what we were trying to do with lighting, gave us a clear plan on how to make it happen, communicated throughout the project, and ended up with great results. Would hire again in a heart beat!
Cameron and Damon did a great job. It was small and pretty simple job but they took the time to make it look good. They also cleaned up everything after they were finished.
Wonderful experience. Rob installed a ceiling fan with wall control. Meticulous, professional, engaging, caring. Wore a mask throughout, as he had a runny nose. Reminded me to wash hands when he handed me anything. Pricing was reasonable. Would absolutely recommend.
I was seeking bids for installing GFCI outlet for my new bidet. Master electrician Cameron from Plugz Electric came to my home last week, talked to me, and looked over the project. He then gave a very detailed bid for the work, making sure I understood each line. Today Cam and his apprentice Damon came out to do the install, running a new circuit from a sub-panel, across the ceiling of two basement utility rooms, then fished up to the bathroom location, all without needing to cut any holes! Their work was completed in good time. Cam then took me on a tour of their routing, pointing out every detail of the work. After making certain that I was satisfied with everything, they cleaned up very thoroughly before departing. Both men were so cordial and really a pleasure to have in my home. One final fun nugget: Cam had told me he would arrive at 8 am, so when he ran into a slowdown on the highway, he actually called me to say that he would be 3 minutes late. Now I’d call that exceptional customer service!
Cameron took great care to fix my electrical problem. He quickly identified that the electric company needed to come out to help. He called the company and even stuck around to make sure they did their part so I wasn’t literally left in the dark. Thanks a million!
The electricians were extremely respectful and kind. I even got a solid referral for a antique chandelier rewire job for our condo. I will hire this group again because of their knowledge and attentiveness to my issue.
I chose Plufz Electric because of their high ratings online. They were able to schedule a prompt service appointment with me and they arrived within their service time window. Rob diagnosed our issue and fixed the problem. He sent a service estimate before he started the work as requested and kept me informed of the work required. He worked with me remotely for our rental which I appreciate. I’d recommend Plugz Electric to anyone. Thanks!
Plugz electric completed a rewire of my home. The job itself had some unexpected hiccups, but Jason and his team were dedicated to resolving these to my satisfaction.
Morgan, Ryan and Mark were incredible. They provided great advice, were extremely professional and installed our new base board heaters with great care. Would highly recommend Plugz Electric to all.
Cameron was extremely professional and super easy to work with. His communication was second to none and his expertise and ability to diagnose issues and find the solution to our problem was top notch. I am a realtor and I will be referring all my clients to Cameron. Thanks again!
Thanks to Dan & Eric for the speedy work on replacing 3 faulty AFCI circuit breakers. Also Jason behind the scenes was super easy to work with. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend Plugz! From the time they bid my project to completion was only about 10 days and I had a big job! Rob was excellent! His communication was perfect and I mean that! The cost was very competitive too. Don't hesitate to hire this company!
Cameron, your Master Electrician. Really Knows his trade ! He found and fixed our problem. Thank you so much... Rich Turnblom. P.S. I will call Plugz Electric for any future electrical needs.
