Remodels, Additions, and New Builds
We work directly with homeowners, GCs, and remodelers across the River Valley. If you're planning a kitchen remodel, a bath remodel, an addition, or a full new build, we can come in early to plan the electrical right — layouts, loads, lighting plans, and panel sizing.
Older Homes in the River Valley
A lot of homes around Van Buren and Fort Smith were built before modern wiring standards. We deal with:
- Knob-and-tube wiring — replacement and remediation
- Aluminum branch wiring — proper devices and connectors, or rewiring
- Two-prong outlets — proper grounding solutions, not just bootleg three-prong adapters
- Federal Pacific / Zinsco panels — full panel replacement
Whole-House Systems, Not Just Devices
Some residential work is about the house as a system rather than one room. Whole-house surge protection installs at the panel and protects everything downstream of it. Interconnected smoke and CO detectors are hard-wired so that one alarm sounds all of them. Aluminum branch wiring — common in homes of a certain age — needs rated devices and connectors, or replacement. Subpanels make sense when a shop, a garage, or an addition needs its own group of circuits instead of long home runs.
Where the panel itself is the limiting factor, that becomes a panel upgrade. Where the question is whether the existing system is safe at all, start with an electrical safety inspection.
